Chapter 1005 Fire in Ice (16 more)
Shopping with Bai Chaosheng in Jingyang, Xici felt that everyone's eyes were about to pierce her.

Especially, there was a woman by his side.

The gazes of countless young girls fell on her, sizing her up from her hair to her toes, and some noble girls' faces turned slightly blue.

For these girls in Jingyang, Chao Shengjun is an existence that is out of reach, but when everyone is in a place that is out of reach, everyone can accept it, but once someone breaks this boundary, it will inevitably become The target of public criticism.

As Xici was walking, she deliberately took a few steps down. She has never cared about other people's gazes, at most she just curled her lips and glanced over.

She thought that she was a few steps behind like this, and according to Bai Chaosheng's intelligence, she would naturally think that she didn't like being so much stared at by others, and hoped that he would go back with empathy.

But Bai Chaosheng is obviously not a considerate master. If he is considerate, how can people come to understand him?
So he stopped, and then stretched out his hand to her: "Come here."

Xici walked over slowly, lowered his head and said, "Mr. Chaosheng, you are too outstanding, I am not good enough for you."

Bai Chaosheng smiled, but there was a hint of coolness in that smile: "It is enough that I am worthy of you."

Xi Ci: ... This man has a really thick skin.

Xici struggled to death, "I can't stand their eyes."

Bai Chaosheng said, "You have to get used to it."

Xi Ci: ...

Bai Chaosheng said, "Bring it here."

Xici passed her hand slowly, and Bai Chaosheng held it, and then pulled her forward.

Now that this is the case, there is nothing to be afraid of, Xici sees that he can't achieve his goal, so he has no worries.

Although she was born in the imperial family, she liked the things in the narrow alleys in Jingyang, and she knew that Bai Chaosheng never liked these things, thinking they were unclean.

In the past, because she knew that Bai Chaosheng didn't like these things, she also tried to endure them and not eat them.

but now……

Xi Ci sat on the worn-out bench, chomping on noodles with fried sauce and pumpkin pie.

But Xiao Er's eyes fell on Bai Chaosheng who was sitting next to him tremblingly, both excited and apprehensive.

Xici's mouth was full of miscellaneous sauce and pieces of pumpkin pie, and he didn't have the elegant and meticulous feeling that the people of Jingyang admired at all.

After eating, Bai Chaosheng handed her a handkerchief to wipe her mouth.

Xici deliberately pretended to be too late to take it, then raised her hand indiscriminately and wiped her mouth, then looked at the pumpkin pie left on her fingers, and slowly licked it clean.

The corner of Xiaoer's mouth twitched as he watched.

this!this woman!It's downright rude!

Xici secretly smiled in his heart: I am like this, I want to see if you will continue to take me shopping or turn around and leave if you can't stand it.

But while licking her fingers clean, she looked at Bai Chaosheng with a slightly provocative smile, but she didn't expect that the man's face didn't even change, but his eyes darkened slightly, as if they were burning hot.

Xici's face became inexplicably hot.

He didn't expect him to be like this, instead of scaring Bai Chaosheng away, he made himself feel embarrassed instead.

She silently took the veil that Bai Chaosheng hadn't taken back, wiped her mouth and hands, stood up, and walked forward.

In order to show his interest in Jingyang, Xici casually asked about some buildings in Jingyang, and Bai Chaosheng explained them very carefully.

Xici walked for a while, and felt that he had little hope of getting rid of Bai Chaosheng, so he couldn't help feeling a little reluctant to leave.

Bai Chaosheng asked, "Are there any other places you are interested in?"

Xici shook his head: "Not anymore."

Only then did Bai Chaosheng hold her hand, and said, "Then, come with me."

Xici raised her eyebrows, where is he taking her?
Bai Chaosheng took her into the best cloth shop in Jingyang, looked at her inexplicable eyes, and asked, "Which color do you like?"

Xici glanced at Bai Chaosheng, feeling strange, and looked at the earnest eyes of the boss next to him, then pointed to several colors and said.

When I was Di Ji, all the clothes were made according to the old style, so I never thought about what I like.

Bai Chaosheng nodded, then took her hand again and walked outside.

Then I went to the jewelry shop and the rouge shop, and the questions I asked were the same as before.

Xici felt strange, and on the way Bai Chaosheng sent her back to the house, he couldn't help asking, "Why are you asking me these things?"

Bai Chaosheng said, "Use it when you get married."

Xi Ci was stunned: "Married?"

Although Bai Chaosheng also said it before when he was in Wangcheng, Xi Ci just thought it was a sudden impulse and didn't pay any attention to it.

Xici looked into Bai Chaosheng's eyes and knew that this person was not joking at all. She had mixed feelings in her heart, and then said with a smile, "Mr. Chaosheng, this is not good."

She messed up an excuse: "My parents haven't discussed it yet."

Bai Chaosheng said: "On the way back to Jingyang, I have already repaired a letter and sent it to the State of Wei. Your father just sent a letter last night, and he has already agreed."

Xi Ci said: "But, but the time we spend together is not enough."

Bai Chaosheng said, "Haven't you admired me for a long time?"

Xi Ci: ...

Xici continued to struggle, and then said: "But, but..."

She really couldn't think of a reason, she lowered her head and asked, "How long?"

Bai Chaosheng said, "One month."

Xici was instantly surprised: "This, so fast?"

Bai Chaosheng looked at her and said, "Not fast."

He looked at her, his eyes were shining brightly, "If you want, you can do it in three days."

Because, it has been too long.

Xici was forced to step back by that gaze, the light in her eyes carried a power that made her tremble with fear, like a fire buried under the ice, once it breaks through the ice, it will burn All power.

-

In the following days, Xici never saw Bai Chaosheng except when he was eating, and he seemed to be busy with something, but whenever Xici wanted to go to the street, Bai Chaosheng always I don't know where to stand out and want to take her out.

After several times like this, Xi Ci had no choice.

This person is always elusive.

However, every night, Bai Chaosheng would lie beside her again, feeding her that warm and cool inner breath.

At the beginning, Xici would pretend to be asleep, and then wait for him to come, but in the end, she couldn't hold on anymore, and fell asleep early.

Sometimes she would dream that she was back when she was a child. At that time, the trees in the palace were very tall. She always took A-Heng to climb the trees. A-Heng was weak. When he looked at the tall trees, he looked at her timidly. Xi Ci sat on the branch and stretched out his hand to him: "Ah Heng, trust me, come on, come up, and give me your hand." Ah Heng stretched out his thin hand to her, so he handed it to her , so she took A-Heng to climb the tall tree, the leaves of that tree were densely packed, covering the sky and the sun, the two of them hid there, and everyone in the palace was looking for them anxiously. The crying servant looked at her unbearably.Climbing and climbing, Xi Heng accidentally fell from the tree, she stretched out her hand, but she couldn't even grab his hand, and then watched her fall.

She opened her eyes suddenly, it was dawn.

Xici didn't know where the anxiety in her heart came from.

Mrs. Bai was already preparing for her marriage, and the styles of clothes and jewelry were readily available for her to choose from, and they were all similar to the ones she and Bai Chaosheng went to choose that day.

No matter how late it was, except for the stewed chicken soup Madam Bai prepared for her every night, no matter how late it was, as long as she was still awake, Bai Chaosheng would bring her some outside snacks, and sometimes a little wine.

This made Xici feel a little weird in his heart, but also more uneasy.

Even if she didn't say it, Xici could still feel that delicate tenderness. Sometimes when she quietly opened her eyes at night, she would go to see Bai Chaosheng sleeping.

I don't know what he's been up to lately, his ice-like face is slightly sleepy, and there is a faint blue circle of tiredness on his eyelids.

However, the more meticulous the tenderness and care that belonged to Bai Chaosheng, the more uneasy Xici became.

His concern was for Gu Xici, not her.

What would he think if one day he found out that he was "Xici" whom he didn't like?Occupying one person's shell, is it necessary to live as another person for the warmth?That is, if you can hide it for a month, a year, or ten years?For a lifetime?
The longer the deception lasts, the more bloody it becomes when the truth is revealed.

Xici didn't want to do that.

But after feeling this tenderness that she was once out of reach, it became more and more difficult for her to let go.

She likes him so much, she likes him so much that she is willing to confess her weakest and humblest side in front of him, she likes him so much that she only needs to look at him from a distance, and she likes him so much that in her true and gentle For a while, she even wanted to lose her true identity as Xici, just to grasp that bit of tenderness.

If she was at sea before, she could still reveal her identity desperately, but now, she is too greedy for this feeling, and she is even more afraid to speak out.

But Xici knew that she couldn't go on like this.
