Chapter 31 Meet again
"It's my first time here, and I don't know what Madam likes, so I prepared some small gifts, and I hope Madam will accept it with a smile."

Before he finished speaking, Xiang Toon held the wooden box in front of Mrs. Gongsun.

"This is?" Mrs. Gongsun looked at everyone suspiciously. The material of this box is rare, let alone the contents inside. Mrs. Gongsun was a little scared and did not dare to accept such a big gift. She refused: "Can Miss Shen I am already very happy to come to Gongsun Mansion, how can I have the nerve to accept gifts?"

As he spoke, he pushed the gift in front of Shen Lili and said, "This gift, please take it back!"

Shen Lili thought that Mrs. Gongsun didn't like the things inside, so she said, "Madam, don't refuse in such a hurry, or why don't you take a look at what's inside first?"

"This..." Mrs. Gongsun refused Shen Lili for some reason, and cast a look of help at Lu Chaoyan.

Lu Chaoyan immediately said: "Miss Shen, the Gongsun Mansion cannot accept gifts for no reason, I hope Miss Shen will take them back."

Shen Lili didn't respond, and opened the box silently, turned the box to Mrs. Gongsun and said, "My mother got these from the temple yesterday to pray for blessings. I thought Mrs. Gongsun would like them, so I brought some."

There is a string of small beads and a long beads in the box.

Mrs. Gongsun thought that it contained expensive things, but she didn't expect it to be something that she and the master in the temple had mentioned many times, but they were all rejected.

Unexpectedly, Mrs. Shen was able to get these things, and even gave herself a copy.

Although this thing is not very expensive, but what Master Zen Yuan gave as a gift is hard to come by.

After Mrs. Gongsun saw it, her eyes glowed with joy, and she picked it up carefully and looked at it excitedly.

"It belongs to Master Zenyuan." She stared at the beads with satisfaction for a long time before saying, "Thank you mother for me, I will definitely visit her when I have time."

Looking at his mother who turned faces faster than books, Lu Chaoyan felt that he was a little redundant.

Master Zenyuan is the abbot of Yueqing Temple. He has a certain reputation in the capital. There are countless people praying there, and some people often have their wishes come true. Therefore, the Yueqing Temple is famous all over the world for making wishes and praying for blessings.

But this Master Zenyuan has a cold personality. When talking with people, he always has a cold feeling. Zenyuan, who is indifferent to the world and sees through the world of mortals, was questioned by many people at first because of his young age. Later, when people realized their wishes, he also He became a living Bodhisattva in the hearts of the people.

Lu Chaoyan looked down at his shoes in embarrassment, not knowing what he should say at this moment, so he could only listen to the conversation between his mother and Shen Lili.

"I don't know what to give in return for such a good gift. How about it, if Miss Shen has anything to do in the future, just come to Gongsun Mansion."

"This is not good..." Shen Lili knew that Lu Chaoyan would definitely disagree, so she looked at him.

Lu Chaoyan looked as if he was about to be eaten, and immediately avoided looking at Mrs. Gongsun, but said, "Don't worry about him. It's not up to him to make decisions in the Gongsun Mansion, so don't worry."

Mrs. Gongsun patted Shen Lili's hand lightly as she spoke, telling her not to worry.

Lu Chaoyan was really speechless, how did Shen Lili know that his mother wanted things from Master Zenyuan?
And my own mother, why did Shen Lili let Shen Lili come to Gongsun Mansion at will for such a thing?
It's too easy!

After chatting with Mrs. Gongsun for nearly half an hour, Shen Lili said goodbye to Mrs. Gongsun, claiming that there were still matters to be resolved.

"Ma'am, I have something else to do, so I will take my leave first, and I will come to visit you some other day."

Mrs. Gongsun also realized that it was indeed long enough, so she said, "Let Yan'er see you off."

Before Shen Lili wanted to refuse, Mrs. Gongsun changed the subject and said to Lu Chaoyan: "Hurry up and send it away!"

Lu Chaoyan glanced at his mother, then at Shen Lili, stood up and said, "I obey."

Lu Chaoyan walked in front, and Shen Lili followed behind, with only a few steps between them.

At the gate of Gongsun, Lu Chaoyan stopped, looked back at Shen Lili, and said, "You came to Gongsun's mansion simply to give my mother a gift?"

Shen Lili shook his head after hearing this, shrugged his shoulders with a look of disappointment and said, "Not all of them. I came to see you, but it turns out that you are not very welcome. This is too sad."

After finishing speaking, she walked past him and left a message when she stepped out of the threshold: "I will come to you some other day."

Bai Ji moved to Lu Chaoyan's side and asked puzzledly, "Is it true that Miss Shen likes Lord Hou as the young general said?"

After all, this was the first time someone came to visit, bluntly said that they came to see Lu Chaoyan, which surprised Bai Ji.

Lu Chaoyan was thinking about why Shen Lili said these words. Although the two had only known each other for a few days, it felt like she had known him for a long time.

"Bai Ji."

"Subordinates are here."

"Go and see where she's going."

Bai Ji was slightly taken aback, didn't Shen Lili just say that he wanted to go home?
Is he worried or what?
"Hurry up!" Seeing Bai Ji in a daze, Lu Chaoyan raised his voice and said.

"Oh, this subordinate is going!" Bai Ji jumped over the threshold with his sword in hand, and chased after him.

Shen Lili was walking on the street when she suddenly heard someone beside her say, "We meet again, Shen Lili."

Shen Lili was so frightened that she turned her head to look, and saw a face as gentle as jade, Shen Lili looked a little confused, and didn't know who the person in front of her was.

Xiang Toon was also taken aback, and immediately whispered in Shen Lili's ear: "Miss, this is the king of NATO."

Only then did Shen Lili realize that she was about to bend down to salute, but was stopped by a pair of hands. Meng Jingrou said in a gentle voice, "These cumbersome etiquettes can be avoided."

Shen Lili took a few steps back consciously, keeping some distance from Meng Jing. Bai Ji, who was catching up, happened to encounter this scene, and murmured, "Nato king? Why are you here?"

Seeing Shen Lili's vigilant look, Meng Jing said softly, "Is that why I scare you?"

I?
He is a prince calling himself me in front of him?
Shen Lili looked at Meng Jing very strangely, shook his head and said, "I made the king of NATO laugh."

Hearing Shen Lili call himself the king of NATO, Meng Jing's smile was half reduced, and said: "I don't like others calling me the king of NATO, so Ms. Shen should call me Meng Jing in the future."

"Don't dare."

This Shen Lili is not stupid enough to call a prince's name directly, let alone the two of them don't know each other well!

Meng Jing didn't say anything, just walked away.

Xiang Toon watched Meng Jing leave, happened to see Bai Ji in the crowd, and said softly behind Shen Lili: "Miss, Lord Hou is really worried about your safety, and even asked Bai Ji to come and send each other off!"

Shen Lili didn't look at Bai Ji, understood what Xiang Toon meant, lifted her body and continued to walk forward: "Let him follow."

Meng Jing also noticed the existence of Bai Ji, but he didn't know him, so he didn't mind his own business and went straight to Gongsun's mansion.

Bai Ji looked at the direction Meng Jing was going, and asked worriedly, "Do you want to tell Lord Hou about the matter between King Nayue and Miss Shen?"
