Chapter 75

He didn't say anything about his going to Ling Xiang's mansion to propose a marriage, and he also told Ling Xiang and the others not to spread it casually, she wouldn't know so soon.

Why hide it?

Chu Li grabbed Qiao Ye's hand and led her into the No. [-] private room as usual.

I'm hiding it because I'm afraid that you will suddenly push me away, I'm afraid that I'll lose the only light and hope in my life, I'm afraid that if I make a mistake, there will be nothing to illuminate my heart...

Qiao Ye let him hold her hand, and followed him silently, without saying a word, with a gloomy expression, Seventh brother, I just want to hear you say it yourself, tell me yourself, what I saw yesterday was not real.

However, you didn't say anything.

and this hand...

Qiao Ye bit her lip, staring at the hand he was holding her at the moment. Yesterday, another person hugged it tightly...

gross.

Cloud City.

This is a much smaller and quieter town than Chudu.However, it is not unknown because of its small size.On the contrary, it has always been praised by people because of the unique white jade flower, and the jade fields that produce shiny jade, or because of the statue of the saint enshrined in Jinghua Temple.

The man was wearing a black robe with a dark red lace, standing under the tallest white jade flower in Jinghua Temple.The white jade flower is still in bloom, and the green leaves are wrapped in crystal clear flowers, so pure that it is a little unreal.

Since he was five years old, he has lived in Yuncheng for ten years. This is a place he is so familiar with.Although there are no playmates, no relatives, only cold stone statues, and only white jade flowers blooming endlessly year after year, he still regards this place as his home.

This white jade locust tree is exclusive to him, and no one else can get close to it. There is a secret hidden in the tree—a secret that has never been told to anyone.In this life, I am afraid that no one will be able to know those secrets.

Except for himself.

20 years of life is like a pool of stagnant water, without any storms and waves, repeating the day before day after day, bored.

Chu Mu leaned on the tree trunk and reached out to pick those trivial flowers. There were many small flowers on a large bunch, and he picked them one by one and held them in his palm.

The clouds in the sky are really white, floating high above his head, and he can't touch them, so he can only look up. When he was a child, he liked to sit under a tree and watch the clouds like this.

"Does it look like a white jade flower?"

"Are those pagoda trees planted next to your Sheying Tower? They are really as white as clouds."

"You feel like it too?"

There was a slight smile on the corner of his mouth, and he didn't even notice it, he just stood under the tree and laughed out loud.

In the softest place in my heart lives a little person. Although she doesn't like him, he is willing to let her live in his heart.

While hating her and thinking of her at the same time, Chu Mu lowered his head, sighed softly, and held the flower in his hand tightly. He guessed that she must not be thinking of him.After making up her mind not to go to Chudu for a year or so, will she forget him when they meet again?

Probably.

It's always easy to forget someone who doesn't matter to you.

"Cousin!"

Far away, I heard a familiar voice calling him.

Chu Mu turned his head and saw a man in a blue brocade robe standing under the statue of the saint in Jinghua Temple, waving at him.

Chu Mu smiled, threw the flowers on the ground, clapped his hands, and walked towards him. From childhood to adulthood, if he really had partners and friends, he only had Yunting.

Yunting, the nephew of Yunqing, the saint of Yuncheng, and the cousin of Chu Mu.

Seeing Chu Mu approaching, Yun Ting grabbed him and was about to hit him. Chu Mu hurriedly dodged and raised his eyebrows: "What? You want to fight as soon as we meet? Come on, young master will accompany you!"

Yunting laughed loudly: "Who are you scaring with your three-legged cat skills?" Then he stepped forward and patted Chu Mu on the shoulder, and walked side by side with him: "Why are you willing to come back from Chudu this time? My servant Come and tell me that I saw your carriage entering the city, I still don’t believe it! What’s the matter? Chu isn’t fun? Go back to the backwaters of Yuncheng?”

Chu Mu smiled, and punched Yun Ting on the chest: "This is my home, I can come and leave whenever I want! You, the lord of Yuncheng, said that Yuncheng is a backwater, it's the opposite!"

"Stinky boy! You are quite strong!" Yun Ting took a step back after being beaten by him, rubbing his chest and frowning: "As soon as you come back, you will fight. If you really want to fight, you will definitely not be able to beat me. It's boring!"

Chu Mu raised his eyebrows and smiled without saying a word. From childhood, in Yun Ting's eyes, he was just a savage little prince with poor martial arts, didn't like to socialize with others, and had no friends...

"Stop pretending!" Chu Mu looked at Yun Ting in a dazed manner, "I just hit you. I haven't seen you for so long. The Lord Yun has become weaker? I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it!"

Yun Ting stepped forward helplessly to hold him back: "Stop talking nonsense! Tell me, how long will you stay here this time?"

Chu Mu looked at the blooming white jade flowers and said with a light smile, "Half a year, or a year, or two years." There are some things that only time can erase, and if we don't see each other again, we should forget them right?He waited in Chudu for five years and nothing happened. No matter what the person in Guanyue Building said about his dereliction of duty, he had already decided to leave and would not go back.So what?Everything has nothing to do with him.

"Okay!" Yun Ting laughed, and patted Chu Mu's shoulder vigorously: "So, we brothers can have a good drink! Go, go back now!"

Yun Ting is a bright and modest person, his behavior is not as arrogant as Chu Mu, he is the youngest city lord of Yuncheng, and he gets along very well with the people in the city.Yuncheng is Chumu's only fiefdom. Here, it does not accept the direct jurisdiction of the imperial court and is relatively independent both politically and economically.

Chu Mu nodded: "Go and drink. By the way, call some of the beautiful girls in your house, or I won't be able to drink."

Yun Ting shook his head helplessly: "I haven't seen you for so long, you have really changed. You used to not drink at all, but after going to Chudu, you have learned everything. I am curious, and I will go to Chudu to have a look when I have time."

Chu Mu still smiled, but didn't answer, and pushed him, "Hey, do you drink or not? Or is there no beauty in your house? Isn't it, the majestic Yuncheng City Lord, who is so shameless, I am too disappointed. Already!"

Yun Ting's face turned red in embarrassment. At this time, the two of them pushed and beat out the gate of Jinghua Temple. Cang Jin, who was dressed in purple clothes, came up to meet Yun Ting, and then whispered to Chu Mu. A few words.

Chu Mu frowned, and his smile restrained: "Is it the eldest lady, or... the fourth lady?"

Cang Jin said: "Miss."

Chu Mu's heart trembled.It really is the eldest lady.He guessed well.

Just now Cang Jin said that the news from Chudu said that Chu Li went to Ling Xiangfu to propose marriage yesterday.

Chu Li naturally has a clear understanding of the situation and has a sense of proportion. Whether it is Gu Yuyan or Ling Wanshu, such a political marriage is beneficial to him.Unless he was blind and risked his life, he would marry the silly fourth lady of Xiangguo's mansion.

Although, she's not really stupid.

His heart became messed up in an instant. He left Chudu and went to Yuncheng in ten days just to escape from her. What should he do now?

"Cousin?" Yunting looked at him strangely. He couldn't understand what their master and servant were saying, but he saw a serious look on Chu Mu's face that he had never seen before, and his brows frowned. Tight, as if encountered some difficult choice.

Suddenly, Chu Mu sighed helplessly, turned to Yunting and said, "Yunting, it seems that I can't drink with you this time. I'm going back to Chudu right away."

"Didn't you just say that you would stay for a year or so? Why did you change your mind all of a sudden?" Yun Ting was very dissatisfied, "Okay, okay, my family recently invited some dancers from the Western Regions, go and see See?"

Chu Mu couldn't laugh, so he patted Yun Ting on the shoulder: "This time it really won't work. If I don't go back, I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep at night."

"So serious?" Yun Ting was surprised, and immediately understood: "Could it be for the beauty? But, you haven't stayed for three days, so don't be so anxious?"

Chu Mu smiled wryly: "Where is the beauty, she's just a little fool. I can't stay for three days, and I don't believe that." No more words, and turned to look at Cang Jin: "The carriage hasn't settled down yet? It's just right, there is no need to settle down. Now, get ready and go right away."

Cang Jin was also a little shocked. According to legend, if people who came to Yuncheng and saw the statue of the saint did not repent for three days in front of the statue, they would not be able to receive the blessing of the saint, and everything would go wrong in the future.However, the master's order could not be disobeyed, she nodded, and together with Cang Xuan sorted out the tools on the road.

"Yun Ting, go to Chudu when you have time. I'll buy you a drink then! Go and see the most beautiful girl in Chudu!" Chu Mu got into the carriage, poked his head out of the window and shouted at Yunting.

Yun Ting waved his hand and nodded helplessly: "Okay! Maybe I'll find you in a few days! Don't forget then!"

Chu Mu smiled at Yun Ting and stopped answering.Lifting the curtain of the car, he said to Cangjin Cangxuan who was driving outside: "We must arrive at Chudu within three days, otherwise, the family law will take care of us!"

Cangjin Cangxuan turned around in shock, "Family law, I haven't heard this word for a long time, the master is really crazy this time!"
However, the astonishment turned into astonishment, Cang Xuan picked up the whip and lashed the horse hard. The horse was stimulated and ran forward desperately, and the whole carriage shook like it was out of control.

To be fast, you have to be bumpy.

Chu Mu sat in the carriage and was shaken to one side, but his heart ached with pain - when I knew you were not well, my heart ached, and I didn't know how to comfort you.

You must be bad, little fool.very bad.

is not it?
don't cry.If you want to cry, at least wait until I come back.

Chudu.

There is no beauty in the world.

A day passed, and Qiao Ye finally found out that something was wrong with Xinxin.I shut myself in the piano room every day and night, and ignored the business outside, and didn't even eat food.
