Chapter 239
The biting cold came like a tide, and Mo Xi didn't know whether to cry or laugh. Such a scene was so familiar, but the difference was that the water was far colder than that day, and it was chilling to the heart.
The heavy brocade clothes in winter become the biggest burden when they meet the water, but the limbs are not as flexible as that day.She was at the bottom of the water, trying to open her eyes, trying to find the red figure, but before she could find it, she felt something caught her legs and feet, making it difficult to move forward for a while.
But it turned out that the luxuriant lotus roots in summer were withered in the water, intertwined and hooked Mo Xi's legs and feet. During the struggle, he could not break free, his chest was suffocated, and his breathing became difficult. Gradually, his vision began to blur, and he was in a trance In the middle, a bright color floated in front of her, and something swam to her legs, untied her entanglement, and led her to the surface of the water...
When I wake up, I am neither at the bottom of the water nor on the light boat. As far as I can see, there is a hazy layer of plain gauze. Through the light gauze curtain, I can vaguely see a person standing beside the bed.
Perhaps it was her actions that alarmed the people in front of the window, and saw that figure moved and walked towards the gauze curtain.
"Miss Seven, are you awake?" The voice was clear and slightly hoarse, because Mo Xi had just woken up and was not concentrating, so she didn't care.
"This is where?"
"An inn near the lake."
"Why are you here?"
"The girl fell into the lake with me, and was rescued by my servant, and then sent here." It was obviously a lie, but someone said it so naturally, as if it should be the way it should be.
A figure flashed through Mo Xi's mind. She looked at the man standing in front of the window through the light veil, her eyes were a little confused, and her forehead felt pain. Pain.
"It's just a cold, rest for a while, and take the medicine, you should be fine."
When the light tone came, Mo Xi suddenly realized, is she sick?That's why the forehead hurts.
"Where are Bixiu and Luyao?" When she woke up, she didn't see the figures of the two servant girls, which was unreasonable, if they knew something happened to her, they would definitely stay by the bed.
"Because he was in a hurry when he came, Ming Lu was worried about our situation, so he just sent you and me here. After realizing that there was nothing wrong, he went to look for the two maidservants beside Seventh Miss. They will come soon." Feng Mingxi explained, unprecedented Never bickered with Mo Xi.If it weren't for the eye-catching blush, Mo Xi would almost have thought that the man standing outside the gauze tent was not Feng Mingxi.
After thinking for a while, Mo Xi got up, sat on the edge of the bed, glanced around, saw the clothes at the foot of the bed, picked them up casually, put them on her body, and lifted the curtain to go out.
"Have you ever changed the clothes on your son?" Looking at the blood-red shirt on Feng Mingxi's body, Mo Xi asked.
"So what if I changed it, so what if I didn't change it? Could it be that Seventh Miss is so caring?" With frivolous eyebrows and eyes, she smiled playfully.Those eyes, which are as bright as peach blossoms, have a brilliance like mist.
Mo Xi coughed lightly, turned her eyes away, and looked out the window.
Outside, the snow was still falling, I don't know how long she slept.
"What time is it?" Mo Xi avoided Feng Mingxi's question.
Feng Mingxi smiled noncommittally, and never made things difficult for Mo Xi. He put his hand sideways and put it behind his back. Following his movements, there was a shaking sound from his clothes. In the quiet room, it could be heard so clearly. .
"Miss Seven slept for an hour." She never answered Mo Xi's question, but she answered clearly.
Mo Xi tilted her head and glanced at the profile of the person beside her, not as good as those eyes that often smile.His side face was unexpectedly cold.
He is really a person who can figure out other people's thoughts!
"Should the prince tell me the identity of that person?"
"I keep my word, the matter has indeed been investigated clearly, but I don't know what Seventh Girl plans to exchange for it?" After speaking, Feng Mingxi turned around and looked at Mo Xi with a smile.It was clearly a friendly and warm smile, but there was a bit more calculation in it.
This person is always unwilling to suffer!
Mo Xi was taken aback for a moment, suddenly, but forgot that there has never been such a thing as a pie in the sky in this world, and naturally there will be no such thing as asking for help from others.
"How about a thousand taels of silver?"
Feng Ming sighed and raised his eyebrows, "Miss Seven thinks I'm short of money?"
"Where are the antique calligraphy and paintings?" Although Mo Xi felt that saying this was somewhat insulting to those antique calligraphy and paintings, how could the person in front of him be that kind of elegant person?But she always had to ask the last question.
"Miss Seven thinks that the antique calligraphy and paintings in your hands can be compared with Feng Mansion?"
"..." Could this person be making things difficult on purpose?
Mo Xi's complexion was a little bad.
Feng Mingxi took Mo Xi's expression into his eyes, saw Mo Xi's downcast face, chuckled lightly, took a step forward, raised Mo Xi's jaw with her jade fingers, blinked, and looked innocent and pitiful, but that What he said made Mo Xi's heart skip a beat: "If I want Miss Seven, I wonder if it's okay?"
Mo Xi was taken aback, a little bewitched, looking at the innocent and harmless appearance in front of her, a little dazed.Afterwards, Mo Xi recalled this scene, and felt that she must have been stupid at that time, otherwise, how could she feel that there was a plotting Feng Ming's breath hidden in everything, how could she be innocent and harmless?
Mo Xi restrained her expression, took a step back, dodged Feng Mingxi's hand, sneered, and gave Feng Mingxi a sideways glance, probably because she was still a little weak because of falling into the water, that look was nothing serious The strength, said to be staring, is actually more like coquettishness: "Xi Shizi thought that I would agree to such a loss-making business?"
There was a burst of laughter in the room.
Mo Xi was taken aback for a moment, then suddenly realized that the person in front of her was just teasing her, but she was so easy to be fooled, she was really ashamed and annoyed at the moment, staring at the person who was reluctant to leave, full of sullen anger.
After a long time, Feng Mingxi restrained her smile, took out a letter from her bosom, and handed it to Mo Xi. Without thinking too much, Mo Xi knew that there must be what she wanted, and she stretched out her hand to get it, but It was taken away by Feng Mingxi.
"Hey~ Although I don't need Miss Seven to sell myself to me, it can't be so cheap, Miss Seven?"
"What do you want to do?" Mo Xi looked at the person in front of him coldly.
"Seventh Miss once agreed to Xiao Shizi's one condition, might as well agree to the next condition today."
"You are clearly a lion with a big mouth!"
"Why? Prince Xiao can do it, but I can't?"
Mo Xi froze, speechless, reached out and snatched the envelope from Feng Mingxi's hand, withdrew his hand, lowered his eyebrows, and said lightly: "Okay, I promise."
"Actually, Miss Seven doesn't have to be cautious. In this world, not everyone hides a secret behind their backs." Feng Mingxi said something inexplicable.
At that time, Mo Xi didn't understand the meaning of these words, she just put the envelope in her arms, and only after she returned to the mansion and opened the envelope did she understand why he said that.
Outside the door, there was a sound of footsteps, it was Luyao and Bixiu who came in a hurry, the two servant girls saw Mo Xi, they looked around, and only after confirming that Mo Xi was fine, did they feel relieved.
Now that the matter was settled, it was getting late, and Mo Xi had no reason to stay. The moment she stepped out of the room, Mo Xi looked back, and met a pair of eyes that were smiling and soft like spring water.
When she looked away, she thought, in this life, she might never see this person again...
