Peerless Concubine: Ghost King, this palace wants to rob

Chapter 554

Zui Yao was a little surprised, poking his head out to look at the little girl sitting at the gate of the city, "Is there any? I think my mental outlook is very good."

Xiao Xiao clicked his tongue, "A person's heart is not judged by his appearance, but by his eyes. Your eyes are filled with gray light, very dim, as if you are looking for something, waiting for something, and the target you are waiting for, It is your hope of living, am I right?"

Zui Yao didn't notice that Xiao Xiao's bright smile was slightly bitter when he said this, and the eyes he was looking at him were even more sad.

I finally looked forward to growing up, but you fell in love with someone else, what should I do.

Zui Yao didn't reply, the lengthy silence made Xiao Xiao's heart feel more heavy, it turned out that he really has someone he loves.

What she said just now was just to test it out.

"Sometimes, it is futile to persist wisely, but some people are still unwilling to let go. They are thinking: maybe if you persist a little longer, you can see hope."

Zui Yao's eyes followed the scorching sun slowly falling into the sky, and he beat the folding fan with a calm and deep tone.

Xiao Xiao didn't speak again, she just lowered her head and wondered what she was thinking.

She didn't raise her head until the sunset dyed half the sky red, "Zuiyao, do you still remember that one year you passed by a village where there was a flood, and you rescued a four-year-old girl from the river?"

Zui Yao looked at her carefully, "Are you that girl?"

Xiao Xiao grinned, "Isn't it?"

"...Not quite." His eyes were a little strange.

I still remember that year when the small villages around the state of Qin were flooded, and many people’s homes were flooded. Zuiyao, who was passing by, saw a child struggling in the river at a glance. He jumped without thinking. He went down, but this jump almost made him never climb up again.

That little girl is really too fat, round like a ball, Zui Yao spent a lot of effort to pull her up, that's why Zui Yao still remembers that little girl.

But Xiao Xiao in front of him is slim and tall, with a good figure, even his face is much better than ten years ago, the change is really great.

"The eighteenth female college has changed." Xiao Xiao could see his thoughts, "You haven't changed much, just a little different."

Zui Yao raised his eyebrows, "What's the difference?"

"You became a little sentimental. I remember that year you had nothing but chic eyes, and you didn't care about anything, but now you have too many things hidden in your eyes." Xiao Xiao's face is particularly small, until now Zui Yao couldn't believe that she was already 30 years old.

But if it is really counted, Xiao Xiao really has to be 30 years old.

"I'm not married at the age of 30, isn't my family in a hurry?" Zui Yao changed the topic and asked.

Xiao Xiao stood up and stretched his waist, "My family is gone, and I died when I was fighting with Qi State, so I can live freely by myself. It's so good, no one cares about where I want to go. People ask how free it is."

These words sounded quite free and unfettered, but only Zui Yao could hear the bitterness in it.

"The sun is already setting, haven't you eaten yet?" Zui Yao jumped down from the city gate and landed in front of her.

Xiao Xiao was startled, then ran up to him and took his arm, "Do you want to invite me to dinner? Yes."

Zui Yao glanced at the arm held by Xiao Xiao, after all, he didn't shake it off, after all, he was just a little girl in his eyes if she was a bit of a sympathetic person.

He shook his head and laughed, "Well, let's go then."
