The arrogance of the city

Chapter 202 Heroes Are Not Kings!
Not long after Kong Fujie's figure disappeared at the door of the living room, a soft and charming figure walked in.

Long hair shawl, eyebrows crescent.

"Master Kong is gone?"

She lowered her eyebrows and tidied up her teacup.

Cao Xiuge held her hand, and the incomparably honorable young master of Tianzihao looked at the woman with a gentle look in his eyes: "It's fine to leave these things to the servants, why do you need to do it yourself?"

"Aren't I just a servant?"

The woman pursed her lips and smiled, gently pulled her calloused hands away from the man's, and skillfully packed the tea set.

It can be seen that she is obviously not those pampered and pampered ladies in the high gate mansions in the capital.

Cao Xiuge didn't insist anymore, watching her tidy up the tea set with a gentle expression.

She picked up the saucer, "Shall I heat up another pot for you?"

"no need."

Not wanting to trouble the woman, Cao Xiuge simply put his own teacup on the saucer, "Okay, let's carry it."

The woman walks gracefully, doing the work of servants, but she gives off a kind of temperament of a master, she will go and come back soon.

Cao Xiuge smiled and waved at her.

The woman smiled slightly, walked to Cao Xiuge's side and sat on his lap, resting her head on his chest.

Smelling the familiar and elegant fragrance from the tip of his nose that has penetrated into the bone marrow, Cao Xiuge's mind was peaceful like never before, holding the warm fragrance and jade in his arms, but without the slightest evil desire.

"Sometimes I really want to learn from the elegant scholars in ancient times, find a mountain forest, build a wooden house, farm with you and weave together, and never care about worldly affairs. Such a life will definitely be very happy..."

The woman let the man play with her hair, closed her eyes and said softly, "I am willing."

"I know you would."

Cao Xiuge murmured: "But I still have too many things to finish."

"Zishu is willing to wait."

Cao Xiuge caressed that soft long hair, and said softly: "What if I can't wait?"

The woman who called herself Zishu curled up in the man's arms, getting closer to the man's arms.

"Then continue to wait in the next life, okay?"

Cao Xiuge's eyes trembled slightly, then he smiled and shook his head. "No, if there is a next life, then I should wait for you."

Zishu didn't speak any more.

Whether she waits for him or he waits for her, in her opinion, it's all the same.

After being silent for a while, Cao Xiuge patted the soft back of Pazishu lightly, "Okay, you go to rest first, I'll go and see Jinse."

Zishu obediently stood up from the man's arms, brushed his hair, "Maotu is probably at Jinse's place right now, I'll go with you."

Cao Xiuge smiled and nodded, "Alright."

In a courtyard in the northeast corner of Cao’s house, there are two peach trees on the left and the right. In spring, the garden is full of spring scenery, and there is a beautiful scene at the other end, but now it’s early autumn, and there are no peach blossoms on human faces. The ultimate landscape of matching red.

Under the bright moonlight, two girls are blocking the swing under the tree. Because the swing is very small, only the next person can sit on it, so they take turns to swing one by one and stand behind to push.

"Little rabbit, can you use some strength? Didn't you have enough to eat at night?"

Just outside the courtyard, Cao Xiuge heard a clear voice like a silver bell coming out of the courtyard with the moonlight.

He couldn't help turning his head to look at Zishu, and the two looked at each other and smiled.

"Miss, didn't you say 5 minutes, it's almost 9 minutes now."

Soon, an aggrieved voice followed.

"Oh, why don't I let you play for 10 minutes later?"

At this time, Cao Xiuge had already walked into the courtyard and coughed lightly, "Jinse, are you bullying Maotu again?"

The girl on the swing turned her head, stuck out her pink tongue, stepped on the ground and stopped the swing: "Brother, why are you here?"

The girl named Maotu was petite, and she called out to Cao Xiuge and Zishu Rourou: "Young master, eldest sister."

Zishu nodded with a smile, and looked at the girl on the swing: "Jinse, Maotu is weak, why don't you let me push it for you?"

The girl quickly jumped off the swing and muttered, "I don't want to be scolded to death by my brother."

Under the quiet moonlight, the girl's crystal clear snow-skinned skin shone with an ivory-like halo, perhaps because of the swing, her delicate face was slightly flushed, and her long black eyelashes tightly covered her eyes. A pair of water-cut autumn pupils, a pair of soft, round and slender fragrant shoulders under the white and delicate straight jade neck...

What a girl like an elf.

"Do you think I won't scold you if you bully Maotu?"

Cao Xiuge deliberately said with a cold face: "Come in with me."

"Oh."

The girl responded obediently, but after Cao Xiuge turned around, she stuck out her tongue at Cao Xiuge's back.

Zishu shook his head with a smile, watched the pair of brothers and sisters enter the house, and then looked at Maotu's pure and tender face, "Sister came to push you?"

……

After entering the room, Cao Xiuge turned around and looked at the girl with her head drooping, a smile flashed in her eyes.

"You are older than Maotu, why do you always bully her? Can't you act like a big sister?"

"I don't have any."

The girl muttered, "I just, I just forgot the time."

"I think you can only bully Maotu."

Cao Xiuge couldn't bear to really blame this girl, he smiled and shook his head.

"Brother, why did you remember to visit me today?"

Seeing the smile in Cao Xiuge's tone, the girl immediately raised her head, her eyes curved into crescent moons.

"As a big brother, do you need a reason to visit your sister?"

"That was not what I meant……"

The girl pulled Cao Xiuge's hand to please her and acted like a baby.

"You... I really don't know when you will grow up." Cao Xiuge shook his head.

"No matter how big I grow up, you are still my brother, and you still have to love me and protect me."

The girl is confident.

Cao Xiuge couldn't laugh or cry, "Okay, I have something serious to tell you."

Cao Xiuge broke free from the girl's hand, and the girl showed a look in my eyes that I had expected.

Cao Xiuge turned a blind eye, and slowly said: "Your elder sister Song is injured, it is inconvenient for me to be a man, so I want you to visit on behalf of our Cao family..."

"Sister Song is injured?!"

The girl suddenly showed surprise. "What's going on? Is the injury serious?"

"It shouldn't be serious, but our Cao family must at least show an attitude. You and Song Luoshen have a good relationship, so it's most appropriate for you to visit."

The innocent look on the girl's face gradually faded.Even though Cao Xiuge didn't say anything, the fact that Song Luoshen was injured, no matter how serious the injury was, was an earth-shattering event.

"Brother, you let me go, it's not just as simple as visiting, right?"

Cao Xiuge's expression was calm and he remained silent.

"Brother, ten years have passed, and grandpa has already let go, so why do you..."

"Do you really think Grandpa let go?"

Cao Xiuge's eyes gradually darkened, "The old man just doesn't want us to bear a heavy burden. Although grandpa never mentioned it, but as a descendant, we can't just pretend that nothing happened!"

With the words, Cao Xiuge's face showed a deep color that outsiders had never seen before, and a surge of resentment roared in an instant!
The girl looked at him blankly: "Brother..."

"Do you know what grandpa only said when he failed?"

Cao Xiuge's eyes were almost empty, and his fingers were clenched suddenly, "A hero can be a general, but a hero is not a king."

"What a hero is not a king!"

Cao Xiuge laughed silently, then turned around and walked outside, leaving only a few words echoing in the girl's ears.

"Jinse, big brother has nothing to ask for in this life. He only has one goal, which is to get back bit by bit what was taken away from his old man in the past!"

Looking at the back of Cao Xiuge, Miss Cao's family, Cao Jinse's eyes trembled.

"Brother, I will help you."
