Chapter 25 Making an Encounter

"Okay, why do I only have a sister like you?"

Dou Heng didn't ask any more questions, shrugged and agreed.

Then one person was holding a wine flask and drinking from each other's lips, while the other was eating the food silently.

After a while, Dou Lianyi filled her stomach. When she stood up, she glanced at the wine bottle in Dou Heng's hand. Finally, she couldn't help but frown and said, "Drink less. Don't always make your parents angry."

Hearing this, Dou Heng suddenly laughed and said in a rogue manner: "When it comes to making them angry, who can be better than you?"

Dou Lianyi was choked by these words and had nothing to say. She glared at Dou Heng and turned around to leave.

Just as she pressed her hand on the door, Dou Heng's sad-sounding voice suddenly came from behind: "When will you go back to see mother? She misses you very much."

Dou Lianyi was stunned for a moment, a hint of sadness flashed across his eyes.

At first, she insisted on marrying Lu Shangxuan despite her family's objections. She didn't even dare to reveal the news of An Ge'er's death. This gave her no face to go back to see her parents now.

After a while, she opened the door and left a faint message to Dou Heng.

"Not long."

Bai Zhi, who was outside the house, did not leave even half a step. When she saw Dou Lianyi coming out, she hurriedly came forward and said, "Young madam, the carriage is waiting outside."

"I want to go for a walk by myself," Dou Lianyi had already suppressed the emotions in her heart and said to Bai Zhi, "You can go back home first with the carriage."

"Okay, young lady."

Bai Zhi could tell that Dou Lianyi was in a bad mood at this time. She didn't dare to ask any more questions, so she nodded in agreement.

After leaving Jufu Restaurant, Dou Lianyi didn't know where she was going, so she just walked around in confusion.

She didn't stop until she reached an old tree full of snow-white flowers. She raised her head slightly and saw that there was a large mansion sitting next to the old tree, with a golden nanmu plaque hanging on the door.

However, because the old tree was too tall, the flowers on the tree blocked the words on the wooden plaque. Dou Lianyi couldn't see it clearly, so he gave up and stopped to watch for a while, then turned around and left in another direction.

At this time, a strong wind blew from nowhere, and the pure white snow-like flowers rustled down, like a rain of flowers, covering the land under the tree in an instant.

Just when Dou Lianyi walked more than ten steps, the door of the mansion was opened from the inside, and a handsome young man wearing a crescent white dress slowly walked out.

He stood on the steps, looking at Dou Lianyi's retreating back from afar. His eyes turned slightly, and then accurately landed on the sneaky figure following Dou Lianyi.

"Why are you so careless?"

After muttering to himself in a low voice, he casually lifted up the hem of his clothes, walked down the steps three steps at a time, and walked quickly in the direction Dou Lianyi left.

"Master Qin, are you still..."

A man was chased out of the mansion. He looked to be in his early forties, tall and upright, but serious in appearance. Seeing that his master did not leave a word and disappeared into the sea of ​​people in the blink of an eye, he could only shake his head helplessly. shook his head.

At this time, Dou Lianyi had no idea that there were two people behind her. She was a little tired from walking, so she stopped in front of a sweet water shop and asked the waiter for a bowl of frozen lotus seed and lily soup.

"Give me a bowl too, and a plate of honey peanuts."

When he turned around to find a seat and sat down, a clear voice sounded behind him.

Dou Lianyi inexplicably felt that this voice sounded familiar, as if she had heard it somewhere before, so she subconsciously looked up.

It happened that the young master also came over, and I saw that he was wearing a long crescent white dress, with a handsome face, eyebrows and eyes like ink paintings, and a gentle and elegant appearance.

He bent slightly and asked softly: "Can I sit here?" Seeing that there were clearly a few empty seats next to him, Dou Lianyi felt a little suspicious in her heart, but she didn't show it on her face. She nodded secretly but also became wary.

"Sir, here comes your lotus seed and lily soup and honey and peanuts."

Soon the waiter brought the sweet soup one by one. Seeing that Dou Lianyi was only immersed in drinking his own bowl, Mr. Bai Shang raised his hand and pushed the plate of honey and peanuts to the middle of the table and asked: "Girl, don't you give it a try?" ?”

"No," Dou Lianyi shook her head and declined, "Young master, you can taste it yourself."

Hearing this, Mr. Bai Shang smiled, with a hint of joking in his tone: "So Miss Dou was lying to Qin when she said she liked sweets that night?"

Dou Lianyi raised her head, frowned in confusion and asked, "Did I ever tell you that I..."

Before she finished speaking, she suddenly realized who the person in front of her was.

"Are you Mr. Qin?"

Since Qin Mu had been wearing a mask before, now that he had taken it off, his face was so handsome that Dou Lianyi didn't dare to confirm it for a while.

Qin Mu casually took off the ivory fan hanging from his waist and handed it to Dou Lianyi. The ivory fan was crystal clear and white, with light golden dark lines floating on the leaves. There was also a delicate and small gold medal hanging on the tail of the fan. Wishful knot.

"It's really you, Mr. Qin," Dou Lianyi's eyes flashed with surprise. She returned the ivory fan to Qin Mu and sighed, "How could it be such a coincidence!"

"Yes, I happened to be passing by here. I was greedy for a while, and I didn't expect to meet you, Miss Dou."

Dou Lianyi smiled generously, stood up and wanted to pay the bill first, "Since it's such a coincidence, I have to pay for this meal."

"By the way, is that brother with you, Miss Dou?"

When Dou Lianyi came back after paying the money, Qin Mu suddenly asked her.

"Who?"

Dou Lianyi subconsciously followed Qin Mu's gaze and turned to look over.

There was nothing unusual about the people coming and going on the long street.

"It's strange, why did that person disappear all of a sudden?"

Qin Mu also looked a little confused, and he explained: "I just saw that brother following Miss Dou, and I thought you were acquaintances, but for some reason, Miss Dou, he disappeared without a trace. No trace."

Dou Lianyi suddenly became vigilant. Could it be that Lu Shangxuan wanted to kill her again in broad daylight?
She frowned slightly and then asked, "I wonder if Mr. Qin has seen clearly what that person looks like?"

"That man's appearance is really ordinary," Qin Mu thought for a while and replied with some regret, "but he does have two black moles under his right eye, which are quite obvious."

"in this way."

Dou Lianyi pursed her lips anxiously. She vaguely remembered that there seemed to be such a person in her previous life, but she just couldn't remember who he was.

"Miss Dou, do you have anything else to do later? If not, why not go shopping with Mr. Qin?"

Qin Mu interrupted Dou Lianyi's thoughts. Her mind was in a mess and she had no clue, so she simply responded to see if the man would follow her.

"Okay."

Dou Lianyi agreed, but when she stood up, she couldn't help but look behind her.
