Rebirth and madness, I am no longer the mistress of this high-class family!

Chapter 29 You are still more superficial (please vote for collection recommendation)

The snow came suddenly, and in less than two quarters of an hour, the entire capital was covered with a blanket of snow.

Passers-by on the street were walking at a faster pace, and they were breathing heavily.

Cui Shao stood awkwardly outside Qingshan Restaurant with the wages he had earned in the past few days, stubbornly refusing to leave.

"I've already taken a shower. I won't make your restaurant room dirty."

It's not like he's never been to this kind of place.

On the contrary, before his family was in trouble, in his vague memory, he was even a frequent visitor to Tongjutang Restaurant.

Where would it be like now, even entering an ordinary place like Qingshan Restaurant would be frowned upon.

The snow outside was getting heavier and heavier, and heavy goose-feather snow accumulated on his black hair and thin shirt one after another, forming a small patch, which made him feel cold.

The waiter scanned Cui Shao up and down, and saw that his face was sallow and darkened under the messy black hair, and said with disdain: "You said it won't get dirty, but your skin is black, who would believe it? It’s dirty, shouldn’t it be coming here just after dinner?”

"Is it dark?" A seventy-two-bone maple red paper umbrella tilted over Cui Shao's head, covering him from the cold snowflakes.

The cold wind carried a faint scent of magnolia and enveloped Cui Shao.

Looking sideways, a girl in a red skirt stood beside him, her watery eyes exposed outside the veil scanning him up and down.

The corroded scar on the left side of his face has been covered by his messy hair. Logically speaking, he is not afraid of being scrutinized like this by her.

But at this moment, he still felt like a thorn, the scar hidden in his messy hair began to heat up again, his eyelashes were trembling rapidly, and he was so nervous that he didn't know how to continue breathing.

Shen Yuan withdrew her gaze, nodded, and agreed with the waiter: "It seems a little dark."

The waiter originally thought that Shen Yuan was here to protect Cui Shao. After hearing what she said, the smile that was still frozen at first continued to widen, and he planned to say a few words to disparage Cui Shao.

Unexpectedly, the girl with outstanding temperament in front of her changed her words and her eyes fell on him again. She took a step forward and assumed a protective posture. Her red lips hidden under the veil moved: "But compared to you, you seem to be more superficial. .”

The waiter's smile froze again, and his eyes began to glance around quickly under Shen Yuan's cold and piercing death gaze. His face turned pale and he said in relief: "This. This"

He is used to driving away people who are obviously of low status at a glance, and has never made any mistakes. How could he know that today he kicked off such a ban?
  The owner of the restaurant also serves as the cashier. Qingshan Restaurant's business is not very good in the capital city where there are many restaurants. It usually only accepts some poor scholars and ordinary people.

There are not many distinguished guests like Shen Yuan who can tell at a glance that he is a big fat sheep.

Seeing that she was lingering outside for a long time without coming in, the shopkeeper looked at the shop with only a few customers scattered around, and couldn't help but get up and walk to the door.

"Young lady, it's so cold outside, why don't you come in quickly and have a sip of hot tea?"

Shen Yuan glanced at the shopkeeper with a flattering smile on his face, forced the Tang Pozi into Cui Shao's hand, and said with a smile: "Of course I want to go in and drink, but the waiter you hired is too dark and looks dirty. Damn, it gives me the feeling that your restaurant is not very clean."

The waiter had just driven Cui Shao away. The shopkeeper heard some noises. He looked back and forth between Shen Yuan and Cui Shao. He saw that the relationship between the two was unusual, and he immediately understood.

"What else am I talking about? It's simple. I'll fire this guy right away. Don't taint your eyes." The shopkeeper said with a fake smile and called over another waiter who was free.

"You go and take some distinguished guests upstairs, and I'll take care of some things here."

As he spoke, his big hand with a gold ring grabbed the erring waiter's collar, and anger poured into his old eyes, diluting the fake smile on his face.

Shen Yuan estimated that the erring waiter couldn't stay any longer. He nodded with satisfaction and looked sideways at Cui Shao: "Let's go. Didn't you say in your letter that you were treating us?"

"Why don't we change places? That's not the case just now."

He glanced at the location where the shopkeeper and waiter had left, and felt that it would be unlucky to continue staying here.

Shen Yuan guessed what he was thinking and disagreed: "What to change? Didn't he just say that you are not qualified to come in? Then we have to come in and let him take a good look at the person he despises, and we can also send him to hell. He also has a backer." The new waiter is very good at recognizing people. When he saw Shen Yuan protecting Cui Shao, who was like a beggar, he hurriedly led the two of them to the third floor of the restaurant with a gesture of respect.

Cui Shao followed Shen Yuan. Because he was close to her, he could still smell the faint magnolia fragrance wafting from her body.

The Tangbaozi she forced into her hand was so hot that it warmed all his limbs, but he felt that the heat was far less than what she had just said.

"backing."

The young man muttered with his eyelashes closed, and the tip of his nose felt inexplicably sore.

He didn't even know when he arrived at the place and it was time for him to enter the private room.

When Shen Yuan saw that he was stunned and didn't know what he was thinking, she frowned and waved her hand in front of his eyes.

"Cui Shao."

The girl's fingers are white and delicate, and her neatly manicured nails are smeared with fine Danko, which look particularly crystal clear and beautiful under the sunlight.

The young man finally came to his senses and followed Shen Yuan into the house.

Zhiluo was not sure that Shen Yuan and Cui Shao were alone together, especially since he was a relatively young man and wanted to stay in the house and watch over them.

But Shen Yuan noticed that You Zhi had fallen there, and Cui Shao was so nervous that he couldn't even walk with the same hands and feet, so he thought about it and asked her to wait at the door.

There were charcoal stoves at the door of the private room and inside the room. The temperature was relatively high. Shen Yuan took off the scarlet fox fur cloak on his shoulders and took off the veil to reveal his beautiful face.

"Have you really thought about whether you still want to enter the palace as a eunuch?"

After she rescued him that day, she left him a letter.

The letter explained her reasons for saving him and her willingness to cooperate with him.

The reason she said was that she had a dream, a dream in which she was destined to die, and the key person to save her was him.

Ancient people believed very much in the theory of gods and ghosts, so even if this reason was ridiculous, Shen Yuan believed that Cui Shao would definitely try to believe it in the absence of other suitable reasons.

"In the dream I know, you will sit in the position of Chief of Ceremonies in the future, and you will be very trusted by the emperor. But it is a dream after all. You don't have to follow the rules in the dream to become a eunuch in the palace, you can also."

"Ms. Shen."

Cui Shao licked his chapped and bleeding lips, not daring to look at her face that was so beautiful that it made him feel inferior, and interrupted her: "But this road is the fastest and the only shortcut I can take."

Although he could go the other way, it would take too long and there would be a lot of trouble for Shen Yuan.

In addition, because of his special status, even if he wanted to take the imperial examination, it would be very dangerous.

Shen Yuan also understood this, but still refused to let go.

She clenched the things she had prepared in her hand and asked him tentatively: "Then can you tell me the reason?"

"what?"

"The reason you're so desperate to get to the top."

　Cui Shao: Tears fiercely.
