Travel To The World Of Ca Li
Smarter a Little!
The beautiful and noble face of Xiu Yue had disappeared. Like an animal that was about to die, he had lost his mind and composure.
He pushed hard on Xiu Qixuan's body with great fury his strength doubled, one hand the other raised trying to slap Xiu Qixuan's face.
"Xuan!" Yao Yunmei's voice shouted in shock from a distance of several steps behind.
•••••••••••••••
Seeing Xiu Yue start to craze due to his provocation. Xiu Qixuan's body was slightly pushed back but she immediately raised her hand to firmly block Xiu Yue's arm that was about to slap her face.
Most of the guests who passed by to pass them saw Xiu Yue with various unpleasant looks.
"Xiu Yue, don't be like this! Your beloved in-laws look, can be terrible!" Bursting a few words with a quick glance at Mr and Mrs Mayor Qu who was inside the park, Xiu Qixuan again sneered.
"I don't care anyway. It's just that one crack in your finger can make you look deformed, we don't want that to happen in your beautiful hands, do we?" The corner of her mouth was raised cynically by strengthening the check of her fingers on Xiu Yue's arm until the young woman held back the frown of pain that was wrapped in anger. "Keep your hands so as not to touch me!" his low whisper was full of frightening threats.
Hearing his words, Xiu Yue's face became increasingly dull. Regardless of the feelings of anger and humiliation he felt during the banquet. The current Xiu Qixuan was clearly trying to stop him from acting that would further harm him again. Why that? Isn't his downfall what he wanted?
"What do you really want?!" Xiu Yue looked gloomy and unsteady, slowly asking.
Both of Xiu Qixuan's cynical eyes turned bright as if nothing had happened, as she indifferently released her clasps of hands.
"Nothing." Xiu Qixuan replied with a light shoulder.
Hearing the familiar footsteps that reverberated rapidly from the back of his body, Xiu Qixuan immediately continued her words; "Despite all this. I'm just showing you that your standards on marriage are very low. So, Xiu Yue, be a little smarter! Your husband is too much of a jerk to call love!"
"Are you trying to control me?! Don't talk like you know me." Xiu Yue said with a growl of annoyance, her eyes had already turned red either from anger or were struck by Xiu Qixuan's resuscitating words.
Xiu Qixuan waved indifferently, and responded; "Sound like advice and life lessons to you, perhaps?" He continued, "Already, I'm saying goodbye! Be sweet!"
Just when Xiu Qixuan twisted her body to turn away from Xiu Yue, the voice of someone who sounded anxious echoed.
"Xuan'er?"
"What's wrong?"
It was Xiu Haocun with Mo Ji Gui who immediately rushed over from the end of the road to approach him when he heard the commotion.
Xiu Qixuan smiled back sweetly, replying; "Nothing. I only discussed a few things with Biaomei." both of her legs stepped closer to Xiu Haocun and spoiledly embraced the father's arms. "Come, go!" He exclaimed cheerfully.
Yao Yunmei simply sighed and shook his head, not knowing what to do.
On the other hand, Xiu Yue cursed him inwardly. Xiu Yue's eyes trembled in envy at the familiarity of the pair of father and son. His chest ached like a needle when he realized that he could never be like that. He didn't even recognize the father who brought him into the world.
Hating Xiu Qixuan was a form of impingement that was actually poisonous. It's a childish nature, but it's what makes him feel better.
On the other hand, Xiu Qixuan was trying to understand Xiu Yue just as she was trying to understand the loneliness that Qiaofeng was experiencing, but she would not tolerate any interference that crossed the line.
•••••••••••••
The sound of wheels moving with the rhythm of the horse's footprints echoed along the way. Xiu Haocun led the party in front with a horse carriage following him from behind.
When sitting in a horse-drawn carriage. Xiu Qixuan felt like sitting on a thorny chair, it was really scary to see Yao Yunmei's gaze pointed sharply at her.
"Silly girl, you really are a troublemaker!" Yao Yunmei excitedly said loudly pulling Xiu Qixuan's ears.
"Aw, ouch! please calm down, sister-in-law!" Xiu Qixuan grimaced and wriggled to release Yao Yunmei's hand from her already flushed ear.
Yao Yunmei clenched his jaw and snorted, saying; "Humph... Never mind, you also have no intention of explaining anything to me. But, your actions are rash and cruel!"
Xiu Qixuan was silent for a moment. He looked doubtfully at Yao Yunmei's face with his drooping eyes slightly feeling guilty. However, his actions were indeed very cruel at the wedding that Xiu Yue had just built.
Taking a deep breath, Xiu Qixuan said. "Yes, I have a reason for that."
••••••••••••••
Two days later,
The night wind feels more humid, and the weather is getting warmer, indicating summer is coming soon in a matter of weeks.
Xiu Qixuan threw herself on the bed, rolled over and turned around, looking for a comfortable position but not sleeping. Do not know if he was stressed because he faced many things, but, his sleep hours increasingly felt reduced.
Getting up and wearing his coat that hung in the corner of the wall, Xiu Qixuan stepped out of the room.
He wanted to call Xiao Rou to accompany him, but, suddenly recalled that Xiao Rou must be exhausted as well. Because as his companion's servant, Xiao Rou also obtained special lessons to enter the imperial palace.
'Tok.button.'
A knocking sound suddenly sounded from the closed window. Xiu Qixuan's steps came to a halt with her head turned stiffly looking at the black shadow on the window sill.
Xiu Qixuan clucked lazily, biting her lips. Guessing if it was Xiu Huanran who had already returned? Soon he arrived. Because yesterday, that annoying sister called just to nag all day through her giving bells that kept ringing.
Although reluctant, Xiu Qixuan voiced out; "Who is there?"
"It's me." A soft low voice guaranteed a sense of security, he continued. "Xuan'er, just give me a second to see you, can you?" His tone rumbled full of intolerable difficulty.
Xiu Qixuan's face wrinkled as she recognized this familiar voice. His mind was full of unusual questions. What's the matter with him visiting his room especially at night?
Hearing no answer, the figure on the window sill again made a sound.
"Ah, it's okay if you don't want to. I get it." He continued softly but sounded pitiful. "It's past bedtime, you must be sleepy. Go to bed now, and get up early! I'll put a present for you here, take it tomorrow!"
The shadow of the figure was seen bending over to put the item he was carrying into the bottom corner of the front window.
Looking straight ahead, the figure said with a slight quiver; "I go—,"
"Wait!"
Brakk..
The wooden shutters were slammed tightly by a pair of slender hands that made a loud thud at night.
