Lord, your mask fell off

Chapter 167 The Promise of Parting

Turning her around and calling her name lightly, Chu Qingyan realized that the person standing in front of her was none other than Xiao Ran who hadn't seen her for more than ten days.

His appearance, which had been reduced a lot, became more and more handsome. Perhaps because of the injury, his face was pale and his lips were bloodless.

When Chu Qingyan saw that he had lost a lot of weight, out of concern for her friend, she couldn't help complaining to him, "The injury hasn't healed yet, why are you running around? Don't you know how to take care of yourself?"

The angry look on his face and the long-lost concern made li xuan feel warm in his heart.

"It's so embarrassing, it's not easy for me to come out and find you, so don't patronize and scold me." After he finished speaking, he couldn't help coughing a few times while covering his chest.

Hearing this, Chu Qingyan sighed softly, stepped forward to help him sit down on a stone chair beside him, looked up and looked around, and asked in doubt, "Where are the people who are serving you by your side? Why isn't there any one?"

Xiao Xu shook his head, "I sneaked out of the palace, and I didn't bring anyone out of the palace."

Chu Qingyan heard the words, looked at his eunuch uniform, and knew how he got out of the palace, and couldn't help but blamed, "You look like this, wearing a eunuch uniform, who would know that you are a high-ranking fourth prince?" , if something goes wrong, how can your already injured body bear it?"

Listening to her rambling, Xiao Ran's face was filled with joy, Chu Qingyan saw that he did not feel regretful for his reckless behavior, but instead looked happy, she felt a little strange, and stretched out her hand to push his shoulder, " Hey, you're not hurting your brain, are you?" Otherwise, why did you become so stupid all of a sudden!
Xiao Ran suddenly smiled, as beautiful as the sun, even Chu Qingyan, who had seen all kinds of beautiful men, felt that his eyes were blinded by him.

She has always thought that Big Ice Cube is a handsome boy with a cool and cute temperament, and Xiao Ran in front of him is a cute and innocent handsome boy. Seeing him smile now, her heart is more firm. Fresh meat.

Just when Chu Qingyan was fantasizing, Xiao Ran looked at her, his smile slightly retracted, leaving only a slight ripple at the corner of his mouth, and he said slowly with a serious face, "Qingyan, I think I didn't hurt my brain, but My heart was stolen."

What is this guy talking about?
The assassin who stole his heart?Then he can still stand here well now?What international joke?
Seeing someone being bluffed by him on the spot, Xiao Ran didn't want to explain, he suddenly stretched out his hand to hold her hand, his expression became a little serious, "Qingyan, Brother Dahuang is going to the Fuli Mountains, it's a long and difficult journey, you just stay Imperial City, I will protect you."

Xiao Ran's sudden action made her a little inexplicable, she couldn't help pulling out her hand, and said hesitantly, "Xiao Ran, do you know that your mother's concubine and His Highness's mother's queen, your position and His Highness's position are completely opposite? Even so It's a bit straightforward, but looking at the things that have happened in recent days, can you still feel at ease about your situation? And as the fiancée of His Highness, do you think it will be safe for me to be by your side?"

The words fiancee deeply hurt his heart, and he lowered his eyebrows sadly. He finally found a girl he liked, but she was already the fiancée of the eldest brother, even though the eldest brother was a god in his heart General existence, but he is not reconciled.

He clenched his fists and slowly raised his head, "Qingyan, there is a ten-year difference between you and Brother Huang, and his temper is very boring, will you not get used to it?"

If you say something that doesn't suit you, I'll take you away right away!
"No, we're fine." Chu Qingyan thought he was asking if she and Big Ice Cube would have nothing to talk about, although sometimes it does exist, but it's fine for them to do their own thing.

Seeing her expression of worry, Xiao Ran shook his head in his heart. It seemed that she still didn't understand what the marriage contract meant, and the elder brother had never been close to women, and he treated Qingyan like his younger siblings, so he secretly decided , When he grows up, he will grind his father and concubine mother, and ask his father to cancel the marriage contract between the elder brother and Qingyan. His father loves him so much, as long as he wants, he will not give it, so he now The only two things to do are that he has to wait for Qingyan to grow up, and at the same time he has to become strong, so that there is a reason for his father and mother to nod.

Regarding Xiao Ran's sudden distraction, Chu Qingyan was a little puzzled, she stretched out her hand and waved in front of his eyes, "Xiao Ran, why are you in a daze? I'll let someone send you back to the palace quickly! Otherwise, the matter of you sneaking out will soon be over. It will not be so simple when it is found out."

"I know I can't stay too long, you wait," Xiao Ran took out a puppet from his arms, squeezed his fingers and held it tightly, and then handed it to her, "I carved this in a handicraft class some time ago. I wanted to give it to you as a gift during the Mid-Autumn Festival, but unfortunately you left too early, and I couldn't find a suitable opportunity to give it to you, and then something happened."

"This time, I will take it as a parting gift for you. Since you are leaving, I can't persuade you to stay. It's a long journey. If you miss me, you can take it out and have a look." Xiao Ran said with some emotion.

After Chu Qingyan took it, although the scratches on it were a bit rough, it was not difficult to see that the person on it was herself. She was wearing a long skirt and looked like a fairy descending to earth. Chu Qingyan was a little surprised, this was her first time. The handmade puppet I received once, sincerely said, "Thank you."

Xiao Ran looked at Chu Qingyan with a clear face in front of him, his eyes gradually deepened, and finally he reached out and hugged her, although his voice was still slightly hoarse, but it was affectionate enough, "Qingyan, you said, All encounters in the world are reunions after a long absence, I look forward to the day when we meet again, you have to take care!"

Before Chu Qingyan could respond to what was going on, the person who hugged her fiercely had already let go of her hand, turned her back and out of her sight step by step.

Because I was afraid that if I turned my head, I couldn't restrain the urge to keep you.

Qingyan, you wait for me, one day, I will have the power to protect you.

What you want, what you don't want, I will bring it to you.

Chu Qingyan held the puppet in her hand, finally came back to her senses, and smiled lightly, "Xiao Ran, take care too."

Although Empress Xixuan and Concubine Yue were the main culprits of Da Bingkuo's tragic childhood, and Xiao Ran's harm to Da Bingcube was indirect, but she still couldn't blame him, he was still too young, in her eyes It's a child of twelve or thirteen.

However, it was because she looked at this child with the mentality of a 20-year-old, so it was completely unexpected that the young man in front of her had already developed feelings for her that she shouldn't have.

And subtly, it has an unpredictable impact on her future.
