Lord, your mask fell off

Chapter 1177

Chu Qingyan turned around, and a thin figure jumped into her eyes. With a pale face and a somewhat frail posture, is this person in front of her the high-spirited, ignorant Xiao Ran she knew?

Why did he feel like he was seriously ill at this time?

"What's wrong with you? Are you sick?" After seeing his appearance, she forgot what she had prepared before, and she couldn't help but asked with concern.

Looking at her worried eyebrows, Xiao Ran chuckled, waved his hands, and said indifferently, "It's okay, it's just that I caught a cold a few days ago when I fell into the water, and it will be fine after a few days of cultivation, but you can still care about me, which makes me Very happy."

"What are you talking about? You are my friend, shouldn't I care about you?" What he said sounded a bit strange, Chu Qingyan raised her eyebrows and said.

Xiao Ran smiled bitterly, "Qingyan, you are so smart, you should guess what I mean."

"I really don't know what you want to say?" She was confused.

"I invited you here this time to make amends." Xiao Ran smiled apologetically at her.

"apologize?"

"Yes, that incident of falling into the water was not accidental, but the person who fell into the water was accidental, and all of this was designed by my concubine mother. I apologize to you on her behalf." He said bitterly.

If he had jumped down without any impatience, wouldn't there have been a marriage gift later?

He regretted it very much.

Chu Qingyan understood what he meant. She wanted to be confused in front of him and let time pass by, but he took the initiative to bring it up, and her eyes gradually became sharper.

Now that the skylight is open to speak, don't hide it.

"From your point of view, this whole incident was planned by your mother and concubine, so what is her purpose? After all, there is a reason for it. Could it be that she wants to separate me and the prince?"

Xiao Ran didn't dare to look at her, lowered his head and said, "Yes, she wants to invalidate the marriage, because, because—"

He suddenly plucked up his courage, and slowly raised his head, his dim eyes suddenly brightened and looked at the person in front of him.

"This is also the second reason for inviting you here, Qingyan, I like you very much. I have fallen in love with you since you left five years ago. I have been waiting for you for five years, and I have missed you for five years. Now You are back, and I don't want to miss you again, so the concubine mother designed this plan after learning about my wish."

He summoned up all his strength to show his heart to the one he loves. This was the most daring thing he did in his life, and it was also the first thing he took the initiative to fight for.

When they met for the first time five years ago, because he was jealous of her existence, he took over the elder brother and bullied her at the first sight. Unfortunately, her calm and calm appearance didn't put him in the slightest.

Later, she was killed one after another because of him, either poisoned or injured, he felt guilty towards her in his heart, and after getting in touch with her slowly, he found that she was a cute little girl who could bring surprises and joy to others, the same as what he had before The people you meet are different.

In the palace, most people were either afraid of him or fawning on him, no one was willing to play with him sincerely.

But she is different, treats him as a friend, dislikes him, takes care of him, plays with him, and tells him the truth of life, which he can't understand from other places.

So, gradually, he became dependent on her and couldn't take his eyes off her anymore.

Until one day, he suddenly found that his feelings for her had changed. He wanted to keep her by his side, protect her, and give her happiness.

It's just that when the elder brother was forced to leave the capital, he was injured and there was nothing he could do. He could only watch her get farther and farther away from him, and then he left for five years.

The taste of missing becomes sweet in waiting, and it turns out that waiting can also make people feel happy.

Five years later, he reunited with her again. She was already unrecognizable, noble, beautiful and generous, but the eccentric temperament of that year was still there.As soon as they met, they returned to the way they were getting along back then. He was very grateful for the gift from God. Although they had grown up, they were still the same as before.

My heart can no longer restrain itself from beating faster for her.

As written in "Phoenix Seeking the Phoenix", when there is a beauty, you will never forget it, and if you don't see it for a day, you will miss it like crazy.

Facing Xiao Ran's sudden confession, Chu Qingyan was stunned on the spot, unable to react for a moment.

"Qingyan, don't be scared by me, I really like you, but I never told you, no, no, last time I was in Huguo Temple, I played a song "Phoenix Qiuhuang" for you ", that day, I wanted to express my heart, but you didn't give me a chance."

Xiao Ran touched his head, feeling a little embarrassed, but he knew that at such a time, he should not show timidity, otherwise it would be easy to leave a bad impression on others, so he straightened his back, locked his eyes tightly on her body, and was reluctant to leave .

Chu Qingyan twitched the corners of her mouth, knowing it was one thing, but hearing him say it with her own ears was another, she felt embarrassed that she didn't know how to speak.

"Xiao Ran, don't forget, I am your elder brother's fiancee."

Xiao Ran nodded disapprovingly and said, "I know, but it's not a problem. As long as you are willing to marry me, I will tell Brother Dahuang and Emperor Father that we two really love each other, and they treat me so well and won't stop me our."

Hearing his natural tone, Chu Qingyan felt extremely absurd, and really wondered if water had flooded into his mind when he saved people, and he could still hear the sound of water after shaking?
She took a deep breath and tried to reason with him.

"Why do you think your elder brother will break off the engagement for you?"

Xiao Ran didn't notice the indifference in her tone, and said to himself, "Brother is used to being at ease since he was a child, and he doesn't like others to force him to do anything. The marriage was given without his knowledge, and there is such a age difference between you. , there must be no common language, only when we are similar in age can we talk, you don't have to worry, since I was a child, Brother Huang has loved me very much, as long as I like it, I will put it in front of me, I—"

She can't stand listening anymore, how can there be such a selfish person?

She didn't realize that he was so childish and took it for granted before!
"Enough, I don't want to hear it anymore, Xiao Ran, let me tell you, everything is not what you think."

When he was interrupted halfway through, Xiao Ran said anxiously, "Qingyan, I am sincere to you!"

It's not a question of sincerity at all, is it?

She took a deep breath, and then looked at him seriously, "Xiao Ran, tell me honestly, what role did you play in the incident planned by your mother and concubine? In other words, before the incident, you knew ?"

The smile suddenly froze on his face, and Xiao Ran looked at her a little at a loss.
