Chapter 192 Joy falls from heaven
Seeing her shy and pensive, Su Xin smiled and said, "So, Princess, don't worry about the short term. There's still a long way to go. We'll have to do this every day..."
Having said this, she glanced at the passers-by, lowered her voice and whispered close to Xining's ear.
"We have to sleep in the same bed every day, so we have plenty of time, hehe."
When Xining heard this, her ears suddenly turned red, her face full of shyness, and she raised her hand as if to teach this outspoken person a lesson.
Su Xin jokingly trotted along, saying, "I'm just telling the truth, why did the princess hit me?"
"I'll let you make fun of me." Xining chased after him and said, "Just stand still, do you hear me?"
The two of them were playing and chasing each other. When they reached a fork in the road, Xining accidentally bumped into a woman passing by on the side. It was Miss Yun.
The two of them suddenly cried out "Ah".
When Su Xin saw the princess being bumped into, she immediately came over and scolded her harshly.
"Hey, can't you see? How do you walk?"
Miss Yun was immediately stunned by the "counter-accusation" and was speechless for a while. Senior Qingge said calmly.
"This girl, she was the one who bumped into my apprentice first because she wasn't looking where she was going. It would be fine if she didn't apologize, but why is she the first to complain?"
"Hey you..." Su Xin supported Xining and said in a protective tone, "This is my princess. If anything happens to her, can you afford to bear the consequences?"
Miss Yun reacted immediately and didn't let her go.
"What's wrong with the princess? Can the princess be so self-righteous that she bumps into someone and doesn't apologize, but instead blames them? What princess is so uncultured?"
"Who are you calling uncultured?" Xining pushed Su Xin's hand away, his face cold. "Who knows if you were the one who bumped into me first."
Passersby began to gather in groups of three or four, and Miss Yun took a look.
"There are so many eyes watching you here, and you look so well-dressed, so why are you still following that scoundrel's lead and denying everything?"
Before Su Xin could make a move, Xining angrily pushed Miss Yun and shouted, "Who are you calling a scoundrel? Believe it or not, I'll arrest both of you and take you to the government office."
Before Miss Yun could say anything, Senior Qingge put out his hand to block her and turned to Xining.
"Miss, we don't have a deep hatred. We just accidentally bumped into each other on the street. Why are you being so aggressive? If it weren't for the harsh words spoken by the girl next to you, my disciple would naturally not have said those words. It's just a small matter. Let's both take a step back and let it go."
Su Xin felt offended and didn't want to give up. She said angrily, "You said forget it? Why did people like you say that to our young lady for no reason?"
"They are my guests. What Miss Su Xin said is inappropriate."
When they heard the deep male voice, they looked sideways and saw Xiao Yan getting off the carriage and walking towards them.
Xining was overjoyed. After several months of separation, he finally saw someone today.
She was about to go over and say hello, but when she saw his expression, she immediately realized that she had been arguing with someone in public, doing something undignified and he had just happened to see her. She suddenly felt nervous and embarrassed.
"My Lord, you're back?"
Xiao Yan said expressionlessly, "The princess should control the people around her and not lose her dignity."
Su Xin lowered her head and hid behind him, not daring to speak. Xining was hurt by Xiao Yan's cold words, but she forced herself to explain.
"I didn't know they were the Marquis's guests. It was a misunderstanding."
After she finished speaking, she asked Su Xin to apologize to Miss Yun. Perhaps she didn't want to embarrass herself in front of Xiao Yan, so she left after apologizing.
Senior Qing said, "I didn't realize it was the Marquis of Dingbei before. I apologize for the inconvenience. This is truly a misunderstanding."
"Senior Qing, there's no need to tell me. I saw it all." Xiao Yan said, "I heard Zhang Yin say you were here, so I came here to look for you. Please get in the carriage first."
Senior Qing asked, "Where are you going?"
Xiao Yan said, "As agreed a few days ago, I'll treat you two to a simple meal. Let's go."
Before night falls, the lights in Wangjiang Tower are already on.
Lu Ziqing booked two private rooms on the fifth floor. Zhang Tong and Zhang Yin finished their work and arrived with officials from several other departments.
Yang Zhounan, Chen Ji and the other kids sat in another room, chatting and laughing happily.
Lu Ziqing could hear Lang Si and Chen Ji's laughter in the corridor outside. Su Chengfeng followed them and after a while he walked over to the window to look out.
"What other friends of his have not arrived yet? They haven't come yet."
Lu Ziqing also glanced out the window. "I heard him say that these were two friends he met when he came back from Shuzhou. Zhang Yin also knew them."
"The friend I met when I came back from Shuzhou? Why haven't I seen him?" Su Chengfeng thought about it.
"Isn't it the time when the hailstorm hit? We stayed for several days to help with disaster relief, but Yang Zhounan and I weren't with him."
As he spoke, Lu Ziqing glanced at the carriage on the street and said, "Here it comes, get off."
He walked out of the restaurant door to greet him, and Xiao Yan said with a smile: "Sorry for the long wait."
"No." Lu Ziqing said, "I must meet the Marquis's friend."
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw two women coming out of the carriage. As soon as they got off the carriage and looked up, his face and the two people opposite him suddenly changed, as if they had seen someone shocking and terrifying, and they froze.
Su Chengfeng behind him was also extremely surprised and stood there in a daze.
Senior Qing seemed to be too frightened and was stunned, staring at Lu Ziqing blankly. Miss Yun was so surprised that her eyes were red.
Xiao Yan originally wanted to introduce them, but when he saw the looks on their faces, he didn't know what was going on for a moment. Just as he was about to ask Lu Ziqing, he heard Miss Yun suddenly call out.
"Ziqing? Is it really you?"
Tears were already welling up in Lu Ziqing's eyes. He was so excited that he seemed mute. It was not until Miss Yun came over and hugged him that he spoke with a sob.
"Senior Sister, I'm Ziqing. Where have you been? I can't find you."
Miss Yun hugged Lu Ziqing with tears streaming down her face. All her words were melted into her tears. After a while, she saw the person standing next to her.
She let go of Lu Ziqing, and without even wiping her tears, she went over to hug Su Chengfeng and started crying again.
"Chengfeng, long time no see."
Su Chengfeng hugged her tightly, as if he was holding a lost treasure, with joy and excitement in his eyes.
"Yunling, you finally showed up. I thought I would never see you again in this life."
After crying excitedly, Lu Ziqing finally calmed down a little, and Xiao Yan said beside him.
"So she is your senior sister. That's great! You and your brother are finally reunited. This is truly a rare and joyful occasion."
Xi Yunling wiped her tears, looked at Xiao Yan, and said gratefully, "I never thought that the Marquis and Ziqing would know each other. I don't know how to thank the Marquis for reuniting us this time."
Xiao Yan said, "It's fate. Miss Yun, there's no need to thank me."
As he spoke, he noticed that Lu Ziqing didn't dare to look directly at Senior Qing sitting opposite him, so he began to introduce him.
"Ziqing, this is Senior Qing, Miss Yun's master."
However, after this introduction, Lu Ziqing did not move, but just lowered his eyes and said nothing. Even Xi Yunling and Su Chengfeng's expressions darkened.
For a moment, the atmosphere fell to freezing point again. Xiao Yan also realized that something was wrong and he whispered a reminder.
"Ziqing? What's wrong? Don't be rude."
Xiao Yan's words were very effective. Lu Ziqing finally raised his eyes and looked at his senior clearly, but there was no expression on his face. He just greeted him politely.
"Senior Qing, I'll prepare a glass of light wine. Please come in."
