Chapter 158 Illusion and Illusion
For Xie Zhan, who is used to watching everything in the world with a cold eye, if he doesn't pay attention deliberately, he probably won't care about other people's emotions, let alone interpret them.

Of course, it's not that he doesn't care about his family, but that he has a lot of important things to deal with, and he really has no time to take care of them.This is also the reason why he only wanted to marry a trouble-free wife before, so that he would not waste energy in the inner house.

Therefore, Xie Xinyao had private resentment towards him, but in fact, Xie Zhan knew almost nothing about it.

Now, hearing Xie Xinyao speak, and thinking about not seeing each other for a few months, Xie Zhan saluted Xie Xinyao respectfully, called "Elder Sister", and asked her concerned belly: "How are you? Still feeling sick?"

Seeing that he was like a normal person, unaffected by the matter of the painting, and talking with her was the same as before, Xie Xinyao raised his lips a little disappointed.

She was the only one who cared.

She suppressed her emotions, and urged her as usual: "Shang Ke. Are you busy these days? I haven't seen your new work for a long time. Are you planning to waste your time?"

Xie Zhan explained: "The case in Dali Temple is complicated, and I haven't found the energy yet. When I have a little leisure, I will work hard."

Xie Xinyao nodded in satisfaction and said: "That's good. Maybe I will show the elder sister the first?"

"Of course." Xie Zhan replied respectfully.

The two siblings seem to have returned to the old days of sympathy and sympathy. You come and talk to each other. At the end, Xie Xin Yaocai said: "Let's have some food first. This year's wine is also a rare 'Yuqiongye' in Yuzhou. It is aged for 60 years, you should try it."

The word "Yuqiongye" caught his ears, and Xie Zhan's forehead twitched. At that time, Jiang Qiao entertained him with good wine, but because it contained medicine, he didn't take a bite of it. Unexpectedly, he was able to drink it at his own banquet .

He doesn't like this one, but he has a favorite.

Send some to him another day, presumably those eyes will light up with crystals, and then she will say thank you Chang Heng delicately to him.

Gathering his thoughts, he saw that Xie Xinyao had lifted the jug and made a gesture to pour wine for him, Xie Zhan naturally took the wine cup to take it.

After holding his head up and drinking it, he tasted it and praised: "It really is 'Yuzhou fine wine tulip', with a rich and rich taste, which is rare."

It's rare to get a compliment from Xie Zhan, who has always been extremely picky, as if he was boasting himself, Xie Xinyao frowned, and joked: "You have it on your table too, don't be greedy for mine."

As the night darkens, the sound of silk and bamboo orchestras fills the ears. Not far away, the willow branches beside the soup pond are like hooks.

Thinking of Fuxuan in his arms raising her face and asking him what birthday gift he wanted, Xie Zhan raised the corners of his lips and ate one cup after another.

What does he want, will she give it?

After a long while, Xie Zhan looked at the empty cup in his hand, lifted the empty jug, and suddenly felt top-heavy.Last night's autopsy showed that he had no appetite for food, but now he has really realized the disadvantages of drinking on an empty stomach.

At the end of the banquet, Mrs. Xie stood up and said to the guests who hadn't left yet: "It's almost curfew time in the city, why don't you rest here tonight."

All the guests followed the master's will, and naturally had no objections, followed the servant who came forward to lead the way, and dispersed separately.

**
When the cold night wind blows, it should be able to dissipate a lot of alcohol, but Xie Zhan only feels that the reward has not diminished.

Thinking to himself that his drinking capacity is getting lower and lower, it's only one pot, and even his vision has double vision, he rubbed his brows, and pushed open the door of the wing room.

As soon as he stepped forward, there was a sweet fragrance in his nostrils, and Xie Zhan's heart shook.

Beside the entrance screen, he closed his eyes for a few moments, collected himself, and then opened his eyes and moved inside.

Two bean-sized lamps were dimly lit, standing around the canopy bed in the middle and back of the wing room, and there seemed to be green smoke curling up from the incense burner in the room, circling back and forth.

Because of the strong alcohol, the scene in front of him made Xie Zhan's mind illusory and hazy.

He rubbed the space between his brows again, then took two steps forward, and suddenly, a girl in red stood in front of him gracefully.

Xie Zhan opened his drunken and dilated pupils, staring desperately at the girl's face.

Not very clear.

But he recognized this dress, it was the same as when she came to Xie Mansion to attend the Gathering that day, white gauze embroidered with red flowers, tube top and cloak as gorgeous as manjusawa.

Xie Zhan staggered, walked forward, and opened his mouth: "Xuanxuan."

A moment after his call landed, the girl in red gave him a "hmm".

Xie Zhan was overjoyed, his body changed uncontrollably.

He handed out the folding fan to her, "Why are you here?"

He leaned close to her, bowed towards her familiarly, but stopped when he approached her face.

She didn't take his folding fan.

Her body scent is also a little different.

Xie Zhan stood up straight, and asked in a soft voice, "Why didn't you answer?"

The last time we met outside Fu's mansion, Fu Xuan frowned and turned over his fan, rambling, thinking that he didn't write or draw anything, and asked him to give her the ink next time.

The girl's body froze in place for a moment, and then she stretched out her hand to his.

Xie Zhan calmed down for a moment in a trance, glanced at the girl with the curtain, took a deep breath through his nasal cavity, and discerned the fragrance on her body for a while.

He took a step back, avoiding her hand, and said again: "Speak."

A strange feeling hit his heart in an instant, Xie Zhan flapped his folding fan, and the air flow he brought out flowed away.

Snapped.

The windows are wide open.

The cool breeze in the courtyard immediately poured in, and the clusters of gold and silver threads filled the room with a faint fragrance. With the coldness, it was Xie Zhan who reached out and removed the girl's veil, and then moved to the window.

The weird atmosphere in the room was broken, Xie Zhan looked back and smiled coldly.

Thin lips parted slightly: "Miss Wang Qi, how many times have you pretended?"

The man in front of him has clear eyes, how can he be as confused as before?Wang Zhiyi's breath stopped, her expression was indescribable, "Didn't you already..."

Xie Zhan's voice was not only cold, but also majestic: "I want to ask you, the tax assessment of Lianhe Lane Shop in Dongshi, but you go to Jingzhao County to pay?"

Her face curtain today reminded him.

When he finished speaking, Wang Zhiyi's pupils trembled slightly, and after a while, she argued, "I don't know what you're talking about."

"Really?" Xie Zhan replied, without looking into it, but raised his chin in her direction, "Then what are you doing now?"

The air froze like dead silence, Wang Zhiyi shook her hands slightly, and looked at Xie Zhan in bewilderment.

"I, I was brought here to be resettled."

The corners of Xie Zhan's lips curled up in a sarcastic arc, and he took a few steps towards Wang Zhiyi, and he took a good look at her quietly.

Lang Jun's eyes are like a cold moon hanging on a steep cliff, cold and chilling, distant and alienated.

What he said was heart-wrenching——

"If I want you, but I won't marry you. Miss Wang Qi, can I count my wish?"

Wang Zhiyi's complexion gradually turned pale, the corners of her lips trembled, but no words came out of her throat.

He really can still be with her... but he doesn't want to marry her?
Xie Zhan looked at her coldly, as if looking at a fish on a chopping board.

Rusty footsteps sounded in the corner of the courtyard, Xie Zhan lifted his robe and jumped lightly, all the way east, jumped out of Chasing Spring Villa, and disappeared in the night.
