Is Shizi ill today?

Chapter 368 I Haven't Seen It

Every girl wants to be appreciated and recognized by the man she likes. Shen Qianqiao thinks that she looks pretty in a dance skirt, and she danced very smoothly this time, even the husband behind her praised her.

Xia Houjing is in charge of the safety of the palace today at the Peony Banquet, so he must be present.

"Ah Jing, do I dance well?" Shen Qianqiao propped her chin with her hands, staring straight at the man in front of her.

Xia Houjing tightened his hands holding the chopsticks, slowly raised his head, his deep eyes met the hope in the girl's eyes, he pursed his lips, his voice was so hoarse and indistinct: "Qianqiao..."

"Huh?" Shen Qianqiao's tone was picky, a little suspicious: "Not good-looking?"

Xia Houjing stared deeply at her with a pair of dark eyes, and suddenly shook his head: "I haven't seen it yet."

The smile on Shen Qianqiao's face faded away, You couldn't believe it: "Aren't you the commander of the imperial guards? How come you didn't see it?"

Xia Houjing looked at her deeply and quietly, and unconsciously pursed her thin lips.

Seeing his unsteady expression, Shen Qianqiao thought that he must have something to do so he didn't go to see her dance.

"Forget it," she put some food for him, "it's not a big deal."

Xia Houjing looked at her, his brows were frowned, he put down his chopsticks, and held her hand: "Qian Qiao, I want to see."

Shen Qianqiao was stunned for a moment, and was a little surprised to see the thick dark ink in his eyes.

"The dance is over. If you want to see it, those people will not cooperate with me to dance again."

Originally, she was the lead dancer, and other ladies were not convinced, but because of her husband, she wanted to show her face at the Peony Banquet, so she briefly abandoned the previous suspicions. Fortunately, this day finally passed smoothly.

"I just want to watch you dance." Xia Houjing said in a low voice.

Shen Qianqiao met the persistence in his eyes, and thought of the dance dress she brought back, her heart paused.

"That's fine, but not today," she ate too much tonight, and she's still a little full now.

"Then dance tomorrow," Xia Houjing continued.

Shen Qianqiao put the dishes in his bowl, and the corners of her lips curled up with a smile: "Didn't you say that we will go to the lantern festival together at night?"

Every year during the Peony Festival, there will be a three-day lantern festival held at the South Street Night Market.

There are also on weekdays, but it is far less grand than this time, once a year.

"Well, show me the dance when you come back tomorrow." Xia Houjing smiled slightly on his thin lips.

When Shen Qianqiao heard what he said, she smiled slightly and blinked: "Then you have to eat quickly, it's getting late, I have to go to class tomorrow."

Seeing that she agreed, Xia Houjing raised the corners of his lips slightly.

The next day, Shen Qianqiao's reputation as the No. [-] noble daughter resounded in the streets and alleys. Even the storytellers in the teahouse said that she was the Nine Heavens Xuannv who descended to the earth, and the previous messy rumors were no longer seen.

"I made soup for your uncle again?" Tian walked in, saw the soup pot in his daughter's hand, and his expression was a little bad: "I said you, your own father is not filial, how can you do all you can to outsiders? "

"Uncle is not an outsider!" Shen Qianhui wrapped up the shoes she had made and handed them to the maid beside her, and picked up the tray by herself.

"Aren't you really stupid?" Mrs. Tian stopped in front of her daughter, stretched out her finger and poked her forehead, hating that iron could not be made into steel: "If you treat your father with such a mind, you will worry that your father will not welcome us Mother two?"

Shen Qianhui took two steps back, with an impatient expression on her face: "Mother, no matter how much I love my father, it can't match his love for his son, so why should I deceive myself?"

After speaking, she lifted her foot and walked out.
