A businesswoman with a sharp edge, a genius cultivator

Chapter 40
When Zixi woke up, it was already completely dark outside, the stars were blinking in the sky, and the crescent moon was particularly elegant.

It took a long time for my sleepy eyes to see the environment in the cave clearly...

"Are you awake?" The man's low voice came from the side, Zixi turned her head, the mask close at hand startled her, she straightened up abruptly, Zixi patted her chest and stared at the man, "Did you do that?" What?"

"Huh?" The man raised his eyebrows, "Someone insists on leaning on my shoulders, and I can't help it..."

"……"is that so?Zixi tried hard to think back, she was indeed leaning on his shoulder just now, but she didn't know what happened after falling asleep.

Fortunately, nothing happened, and after a long breath, Zixi stood up and moved his body, but he pushed aside the vegetation at the entrance of the cave and looked outside.

It's pitch black, and it's been a long time since nightfall.

"The person chasing you shouldn't be here?" Zixi raised her eyebrows and asked.

"Can we go?" Zixi asked casually, and when she was about to turn around, the man's figure suddenly approached, wrapping Zixi's waist with one hand, and covering her mouth with the other.

"Hush, don't make any noise..." A man's deep voice came from above his head.

Zixi gritted her teeth!She really wanted to make a sound, but being restrained by such a 360-degree without dead angle, how could she make a sound?

"Zixi? Zixi..." There was a shout in the distance, this voice was very familiar, it belonged to Yun Ya!

Zixi opened his eyes and struggled hard, the man frowned, and suddenly let go of Zixi, Zixi didn't care what he was going to do, and rushed straight to the cave entrance to look for Yunya.

"I'm here, Yun Ya?" Zixi yelled loudly, and Yun Ya hurriedly ran over when he heard the voice.

"Zixi, are you okay? Why haven't you come home all day?" Yun Ya worriedly pulled Zixi to look left and right.

"I'm fine. I got lost this morning, so I found this cave. Ahem, it's a good thing you came out to find me." Zixi covered her mouth and coughed twice.

"Lost?" Yun Ya laughed, "Let me come out with you next time, I am not the only one who came to look for you tonight."

"Zixi?" Ye Niang's figure quickly came out from the forest in front.

"Mother." Zixi was a little guilty. They came out in a hurry in the morning, but they encountered such a thing. They must have been worried.

"You child, bring one more person out next time." Ye Niang took Zixi to see, she was sure that nothing was wrong, and then she was relieved, "This mountain is no different from the town. There are many wild animals. In case you have a Three long and two short, what do you want us to do?"

"I see, mother." Zixi seriously admitted her mistake.

Suddenly thinking of the bottle of green blood peach blossoms, Zixi raised her eyebrows and turned back to the cave, which was empty and empty of people.

he's gone.

"Huh..." Breathing out, Zixi picked up the bottle of Jade Blood Peach Blossom in the corner of the stone wall. I don't know how this Jade Blood Peach Blossom was made, but it can actually satisfy my hunger. After drinking a bottle, my whole body is still warm, and I can't feel it at all. Hungry.

Following Yun Ya and the two back home, Ye Niang didn't eat Zixi's food, she only said that she had eaten it, and went back to her room to sleep.

The white fox disappeared, and it was another night of tossing and turning.

What Zixi didn't know was that Yun Ya was called by his parents to talk for a long time before going back to bed.

Early the next morning, Zixi got up in a daze. Fortunately, she slept all day during the day, and it doesn't matter if she didn't sleep well last night.

Ye Niang's rice porridge and egg breakfast was ready, and Zixi had a full meal, and thought it would be another peaceful day, but after breakfast, she and Yun Ya were left behind, saying that they had something to announce.

"Father and mother, what are you so serious about?" Zixi looked at Ye Niang and Ye Niang with her hands on her cheeks. It seems that since she came to this world, Ye Daddy and Ye Niang never said anything with this expression. It's over.

"Zixi, let your father talk about this matter." Ye Niang was a little embarrassed, looking at Zixi's puzzled face, twisting the corner of her clothes at a loss.

"Huh?" So mysterious?Zixi was puzzled, she caught a glimpse of Yun Ya's flushed face out of the corner of her eye, and was even more surprised, is there anything in this world that can make Yun Ya's flushed face?

His wheat-colored face is actually very close to black, and it is really not easy to turn red.

"It's like this." Amidst Zixi's puzzled eyes, Father Ye said, "Zixi, what do you think of your elder brother Yunya?"

"Yun Ya? Very good, what's the matter?" Zixi became more and more confused.

"Yeah, we watched Yun Ya grow up. He has been honest and capable since he was a child, and he also loves others. We all notice how he treats you these days. Since you think he is good, then this It's up to us, the second child, to make decisions about the marriage." Father Ye said with a smile on his face, and the smile on his face was so strong.

As adults, they just hope that the younger generation can live a safe and happy life. When it comes to the happy events of their children, of course they are full of joy.

Zixi was stunned, "Wait, what are you talking about? Marriage?" She never thought that Father Ye and Niang Ye were talking about her marriage with Yun Ya?

"Yeah, your father said, you're not too young anymore, and we like Yun Ya, and now the family is developing smoothly, why don't you take some time to arrange your marriage?" Ye Niang smiled The way is obviously discussed and well thought out.

Maybe the former Ye Zixi would agree to this marriage, but she is the modern Ye Zixi, how can she marry a man she doesn't love?

It's true that Yun Ya is kind to her and she knows it, but she doesn't love him.

Zixi frowned and didn't speak, father and mother Ye were in high spirits, still immersed in the fantasy of a beautiful future, while Yun Ya next to him was a little embarrassed, he was afraid that Zixi would not agree now.

Although Zixi was a bit silly when he was young, Yun Ya fell in love with her from the time that little Ye Zixi handed him the first steamed bun. Knowing that she was from Xiushui Village, he didn't care about gains and losses for so many years. He often helped Ye's father and mother, who were very poor, until they were driven out of the village. He looked for them all day and night, all for her, Ye Zixi.

Ye Daddy and Yeniang chatted with him for a long time last night, letting him open his mind. He knew what Ye Daddy and Yeniang meant, made a lot of guarantees, and got Ye Daddy and Yeniang's affirmation.

He likes Ye Zixi, he liked it before, and he likes it even more now!
It's just that now she is more charming, self-reliant and self-reliant, and her mind is no longer comparable to what she used to be. Will she still fall in love with him like this?
"Zixi, let's make a decision on this matter. I will find someone to choose a date during the day, so that you can get married as soon as possible." Ye Niang smiled.

Arranging a marriage for her daughter is her second greatest happiness.

"Wait." Amid Ye's father and Ye's mother's elation, Zixi raised his head suddenly, and said with clear eyes, "Mother, let's think about this matter again."

Yun Ya's hand was tightened all of a sudden, sure enough, Zi Xi didn't like him?
"Son, what are you talking about? Don't you like Yunya? What else do you need to consider?" Ye Niang frowned, this girl is too self-reliant, she doesn't even know her identity.

As for women, according to ordinary people, they are husbands, children, and parents.

"I like big brother Yunya, but that kind of liking is not love. I just treat him as my big brother. I... never thought of marrying him." Zi Xi's voice paused, although the words It was very hurtful, but it was the truth, and she didn't want to just lie to him like this.

Yun Ya, I just treat you as my elder brother, I never thought of marrying you.

The room was quiet for a while, Father Ye and Niang Ye froze, Yun Ya's body trembled a little.

"Zixi, the words of the matchmaker are ordered by your parents, you and Yunya are childhood sweethearts, what else do you need to consider? Isn't liking just liking? There are many kinds? Can you see that Yunya is not good enough for you?" Father Ye A little angry, their family only has this one daughter, and they only hope to keep the surname Ye in the future, but Zixi is still not happy?
Yun Ya has no father and no mother, and lives alone, so he will definitely marry in the future, and all future children will belong to their Ye family.

"It's not that I don't deserve it, it's that the twisted melon is not sweet, father and mother, I just want to get on with my career now, and I don't want to get married. When it's time to get married, I will naturally get married." Zi Xi shook her head, her The attitude is very firm.

"What are you talking about? You are eighteen now, you are already an older woman!" Ye Niang looked at Zixi with a sad face. The daughter of someone else's family was married at the age of 14, and Zixi was a little stupid because of her nature. , Only then did the delay come down, they were so anxious!
The last time they were kicked out of Xiushui Village, when Yun Ya found them, they already knew Yun Ya's heart, but they never broke it. Zixi refused.

"It's only eighteen, not too old." Zixi grew up under the modern policy of late marriage and late childbirth, but only eighteen, most people are still in high school and preparing to go to college, few get married, this concept , even in ancient times, she will not change.

She didn't know who the person in her life was, so how could she decide on herself in such a hasty way?

"Zixi!" Father Ye became angry, his face flushed red.

"Uncle, auntie, don't make things difficult for Zixi, it doesn't matter if she doesn't like me." Yun Ya's voice trembled, knowing that Zixi said these were just excuses, he couldn't help but feel uncomfortable.

The room was so stuffy, he didn't want to stay in the room anymore.

After saying this, Yun Ya turned around and walked out, warm tears rolled down the young man's face.

"Zixi!" Father Ye roared angrily, staring at Zixi, as if the girl in front of him was an unfilial girl.

Seeing that Yun Ya was left in anger, Ye Niang squeezed her fist and reproached, "Zixi, you are really too, Yun Ya is such a good child, why do you refuse? Hey..."

"Father and mother, I can promise you all other things, but this is not the case. My marriage does not need the orders of my parents and the words of a matchmaker, as long as I love him. I'm sorry." He bowed and saluted, and walked out.
