The reborn poisonous woman is hard to abandon

Chapter 245 There is no relationship between us anymore
The room was extremely quiet, everyone cast their eyes on Xiao Zhongheng, waiting for his response, but at this moment Xiao Zhongheng's heart was complicated.

Yesterday I received a message from the prince asking him to come to Shiweiju today, I thought he was going to accompany me to meet someone.After entering the door, he found that not only Xiao Ruan and Lu Hanrui brothers and sisters were with him, but also Princess Bei Jiang who had been chasing him so hard during this time.

What surprised him even more was that for today's dinner, Duanmuyao specially invited everyone to celebrate his birthday.

Regardless of her own reputation, a woman tries her best to celebrate her birthday.

It would be a lie if he said he wasn't moved, but he didn't know what Duanmuyao was thinking.

If he agrees now, he is undoubtedly giving Duanmu Yao a hint, making the other party think that he is willing to agree to her pursuit.

As long as everyone looked forward to it, Xiao Zhongheng's eyes flickered a few times, and he finally stood up and straightened his expression.

"Thank you princess for organizing my birthday today. It's just that it's not appropriate for me to play "Feng Qiuhuang". Why don't I play "Lingbodu" to add to the fun?"

What a "Lingbodu"!
When Xiao Ruan heard her brother's reply, there was a sigh in her eyes.

"Phoenix Seeking Phoenix" is a song played by men in the Southern Jin Dynasty when they courted women, while "Lingbodu" is just an ordinary song, which was composed by a talented scholar in the previous dynasty to compliment the emperor's favorite concubine .

Xiao Zhongheng didn't want to play "Phoenix Seeking the Phoenix" and replaced it with "Lingbodu". The subtext was that he didn't want to agree to Duanmuyao's pursuit, and even wanted to say that he only respected her in status.

I am afraid……

Xiao Ruan turned his gaze to Duanmuyao, and sure enough, he saw that the smile on Duanmuyao's face had froze, and his eyes were full of disappointment and injury.

Seeing that the two looked at each other without speaking, several people in the room remained silent, but Lu Heng called out regardless.

"Cousin, isn't it just the song "Phoenix Seeking the Phoenix"? We don't have any outsiders here today, so what if you just play a song?"

Xiao Ruan couldn't help being a little surprised when Lu Heng's voice rang in his ears.

Today Duanmuyao invited them to celebrate Xiao Zhongheng's birthday together, so naturally she also hoped that they could match the two of them.

But they were just booing, and direct accusations like Lu Heng's made it difficult for the strong.After all, no one has the right to blame others for emotional matters.

After a moment of silence, Xiao Ruan thought that even if Duanmuyao didn't get angry on the spot, she wouldn't dance again.

But unexpectedly, Duanmu Yao was only stunned for a moment, and soon showed a bright smile, looking straight at Xiao Zhongheng, as if he didn't understand what he meant.

"Since Mr. Xiao feels that it is not appropriate to play "Phoenix Seeking the Phoenix" today, when the time is right, Mr. Xiao must play a piece for me."

After finishing speaking, without waiting for Xiao Zhongheng's response, Duanmuyao directly lifted up the veil behind her hair, half covered her face and tucked it behind her ears, and waved her hand to ask the maid to hand over the lyre to Xiao Zhongheng.

This time, Xiao Zhongheng hesitated for a while, and finally got up and hugged Qin, went to the crystal bead curtain and sat down cross-legged in front of the table.

The man behind the lyre had a white face with little beard, a pair of eyes slightly lowered on his warm and jade-like face, his slender and white fingers like jade bones lightly adjusted the strings, and immediately began to play like clouds and flowing water.

The piano sounds, and the beauty dances.

"Lingbodu" is originally a graceful and obsessive dance style in the south of the Yangtze River, but under the interpretation of Duan Muyao, it has added a bit of the unique freedom and ease of the people in northern Xinjiang, and the veil on her face makes people hazy With a graceful feeling, everyone's eyes brightened.

Even though she was already familiar with her appearance, she still couldn't help but wonder how charming the person under the veil was.

"Tsk tsk! Ruan Ruan, you have to persuade your cousin. You see, the princess has done this for him. He can't see it. It's too indifferent."

Lu Heng glanced at Xiao Zhongheng, who was concentrating on playing the piano, and found that Duanmu Yao's adoring eyes towards him were all ignored, so he couldn't help but whisper in Xiao Ruan's ear.

When Xiao Ruan was convalescing, she frequently heard that Zhu Yun brought her the news that Duan Muyao was pursuing Xiao Zhongheng, but seeing it with her own eyes today, she felt more sympathy for her just like Lu Heng.

Obviously she was so serious about chasing her, and Xiao Zhongheng was well-informed, but he just refused to accept Duanmu Yao, which is really embarrassing.

For a while, when Xiao Ruan heard Lu Heng's words again, she couldn't help feeling that her brother was too indifferent.

Duanmuyao danced beautifully, and when the song ended, everyone immediately burst into applause.Duanmuyao, however, was panting for fragrance, her eyes were fixed on the man playing the piano in front of her with affection, and she refused to move an inch.

"Aheng."

Everyone's eyes went back and forth on the two of them, feeling superfluous, but at this moment, a crisp voice suddenly came from the door, which immediately caught the attention of everyone in the room.

The woman was wearing a begonia-colored double-embroidered satin dress, with a string of jade fans dangling down to the side of her head. She stood timidly at the screen, holding a blue-gray bundle in her hand.

"Who are you? Who let you in?"

Xiao Ruan saw that the man felt something was wrong, Duan Muyao already asked the man coldly with a straight face.

"Ah Heng, today is your birthday. After I arrived at Xiao's mansion, I heard from the servants in the mansion that you came here, so you followed me here. You won't be offended?"

The woman ignored Duanmu Yao's questioning at all, and walked directly towards Xiao Zhongheng inside.When he walked to the front of the piano case, he immediately handed over the burden in his hand to Xiao Zhongheng as if offering a treasure.

"Ah Heng, this is the clothes I made for you with my own hands. You can try it on and see if it fits. If it doesn't fit, I'll change it again."

After everyone heard this, they realized that the woman's bag was filled with clothes, and there was a little more complicated color in their eyes.

"Ruan Ruan, this person is not you..."

"Master Xiao, don't you think we should introduce this person to this princess?"

Lu Heng's eyes widened and he was about to confirm the woman's identity to Xiao Ruan, when Duan Muyao tore off the gauze on his face, walked up to Xiao Zhongheng and asked him about the woman's identity.

"Princess? So you are that foreign princess who is brazenly pestering my husband-in-law and refuses to let go?"

Before Xiao Zhongheng could reply, the woman suddenly changed her head, as if she just noticed Duanmuyao.He looked it up and down carefully, his tone sounded quite curious, but his eyes immediately showed contempt.

Duanmuyao's shameless rumors are well known in the capital, but no one has ever dared to tell you so directly in front of her.

Duanmuyao didn't care about these comments, but when she heard the other party call Xiao Zhongheng "Sanggong", she frowned unconsciously.

She had already investigated and found out that Xiao Zhongheng had reconciled with his first wife, and now Xiao Zhongheng has no wife at all.

But now that this woman who suddenly appeared was called that, there was only one possibility—she was Xiao Zhongheng's divorced wife, Pei Yuemei.

Thinking of this, Duanmu Yao immediately snorted softly from his nasal cavity: "Madam, this princess did not invite you, please get out of here immediately."

Duanmuyao's voice was cold, as if as long as Pei Yuemei didn't leave, she would immediately send someone to drive her out.

The atmosphere in the room instantly became tense, and there seemed to be no one else in the eyes of the two women who met each other.

"Ruan Ruan, do you think they will fight?"

Xiao Ruan looked at Pei Yuemei who suddenly appeared here with a surprised expression, and suddenly heard Lu Heng's faintly worried voice, and unconsciously looked at the faces of the prince and Lu Hanrui.

At this time, the two pretended that they hadn't seen anything, and clinked glasses with the wine in their hands as if no one was around.

"You, a princess from a foreign country, shamelessly pester my husband-in-law all day long, and you dare to threaten me? What is sitting here today is the prince of our Jin country, so you try to drive me out."

Xiao Ruan couldn't answer Lu Heng and was about to speak.However, Pei Yuemei suddenly retorted to Duanmuyao, pressing the door a few degrees higher than usual, completely different from the person in Xiao Ruan's impression.

In my impression, Mrs. Pei is often confused, but she is extremely fond of her own face, and will never quarrel with others in public, let alone attend other people's banquets uninvited.

Xiao Ruan thought about it and saw that the prince was holding a cup of tea at this time, when he suddenly heard Pei Yuemei mentioning herself, he choked hard.Facing the sympathetic eyes of everyone, he smiled wryly while looking at Xiao Zhongheng.

He obviously came to help Duanmu Yao today, and Pei Shi's questioning made it seem that if he didn't help Pei Shi, he was not worthy to be the prince of Jin, and he didn't love the people of Jin.

"enough!"

Everyone had different expressions on their faces, at this moment Xiao Zhongheng suddenly stood up and sternly shouted at Mrs. Pei who wanted to say something to Duanmuyao.

Pei Shi was startled, looked up and found Xiao Zhongheng was looking at him with angry eyes, panic flashed across his face.

"Miss Pei, there is no relationship between me and you. I don't need you to make clothes for me, and I don't want you to speak ill of my friends!"

"Aheng..."

Never expecting that Xiao Zhongheng would say such harsh words to him, Mrs. Pei immediately stood there in a daze.It wasn't until the man on the opposite side returned the clothes and baggage she had given away that he realized that Xiao Zhongheng didn't want to see her at all.

"It's all you! It's all you bitch! Without you, a shameless vixen, how could Ah Heng abandon me!"

Facing Xiao Zhongheng's indifferent eyes, Pei's heart ached, his lips trembled for a long time, then he suddenly turned his gaze to Duanmuyao to one side, there was hatred in his eyes.

After finishing speaking, before Duanmuyao could respond, she stretched out her hand to grab Duanmuyao's face with her sharp nails.

At this time Duanmuyao was happy because Xiao Zhongheng did not recognize Pei's family, so naturally she had no defense against Pei's family at all.

Just when she was staring at Xiao Zhongheng with good eyes, a black shadow suddenly flashed in the corner of her eyes, and the next second she was hugged in her arms.

This person was not tall enough, even a little thin, but when he smelled the faint scent of grass on the other person's body, he felt at ease instantly, and let the other person protect himself in his arms like a hen protecting its chicks.
