Chapter 1036 His Secret
Li Huan stretched out his hand to wipe the body of the bottle again, looked at his fingertips, and saw that there was not a trace of dust.

Goodbye to the base, Li Huan squinted his eyes, but found that the wooden surface of the base showed a warm and greasy luster, as if someone often touched it.

Li Huan fiddled with it casually.

As the eldest princess said, the base can really be turned.It's just that there seems to be resistance when turning, and you need to use two hands to move it.

Li Huan was almost certain that this was some kind of mechanism, so he held the base with both hands and slowly turned it aside.

There was a clicking sound when the base turned, and then she saw the two rows of bookshelves attached to the wall move to both sides, leaving a little space in the middle.

Could there be a secret room?

Xu Shenfang's small coffers?
However, as more and more places in the middle appeared, Li Huan was disappointed to find that there was no secret room or small vault, and what was in front of him was still a wall.

But there is a painting on the wall.

Li Huan took a look and was stunned.

Although she had never seen it before, she was no stranger to the scene in that painting even after many years had passed.

That is Sui Township.

On both sides of the country road, there are sorghum with full and heavy tassels.

She seemed to be able to feel that there was bright sunshine and warm wind in the painting.

As for the back view of walking on the country road, the corners of the clothes are blown by the wind, and the blue hair is faint, giving a somewhat leisurely atmosphere.

Xu Shenfang was discussing matters with some bosses in Beijing today, and inevitably drank some wine during the meeting.

When the old housekeeper sent someone to inform him, he left the banquet and went home.

Other bosses have to rely on him to do business, so if he wants to leave, others dare not stop him, and they have to send him out of the gate with a smile.

Xu Chenfang thought the carriage was slow, so she came back on horseback.

After entering the house, he went straight to the backyard.

When he quietly appeared in front of the study door, as soon as he raised his head, his whole body was shocked.

Li Huan was leaning against his desk, looking at the painting on the wall.

That is his secret.A secret that has never been told before.

He has been carefully guarding his secrets, but he never thought that one day, he would be seen by the person in the painting.

Xu Chenfang's heart sank.

This disturbed him even more than when she found herself setting off fireworks that night on Lantern Festival Eve.

There was even a hint of panic.

But when his eyes fell on the figure in front of the desk, he couldn't move his eyes away.

No matter how many years have passed, her back is always consistent with the painting.

Later, Li Huan heard the sound of footsteps entering the study, she turned her head and saw Xu Chenfang who had come home without any surprise.

She didn't ask anything, just said: "When I brought you something today, I discovered it by accident."

Xu Shenfang asked: "What did you give me?"

Li Huan cast a glance at his desk and said, "These."

Xu Chenfang walked over as if nothing had happened, opened the scroll, smiled at the corner of her mouth, but her eyes were calm, and said, "What do you mean?"

Li Huan said: "For your appreciation."

In the end, she still didn't say that she was picking a partner for him.

If she found out on the night of Lantern Festival that he had set off fireworks for her for so many years, she could convince herself that it was a silent watch between close friends and relatives, but what is it now?

After she discovered this painting, wouldn't it be too disgusting if she still insisted on asking him to choose someone who satisfied her from among the pile of portraits to stay with him for the rest of her life?

So Li Huan didn't know how to react, and Xu Shenfang didn't know how to react either.

Xu Shenfang only jokingly said: "If you really want to appreciate it for me, wouldn't it be more enjoyable for me to appreciate myself in the mirror every day?"

Li Huan nodded and said, "Yes."

Then there was nothing more to say.

Li Huan looked outside the door and said, "Look slowly, I'm leaving first."

When she walked past Xu Chenfang, Xu Chenfang moved his throat, and finally called her in a low voice: "Ah Huan."

Li Huan paused, but still walked forward again.

Xu Chenfang panicked, it must be because he had been drinking, he was a little dizzy, and stretched out his hand to grab Li Huan's arm violently.

As soon as Li Huan just looked up at him, the strength on his arm immediately pulled her forward.

Xu Chenfang hugged her tightly.

The invading musk orchid fragrance is so familiar.Li Huan's eyes widened when he supported his head in his arms.

He was so tight that it was hard for her to breathe, but in this hug, she suddenly felt deep sadness and hopelessness.

Xu Chenfang didn't say anything.

Li Huan leaned in his arms, and then said: "Why don't you say, let me try it with you?"

Xu Chenfang said hoarsely: "Once I say it, you can reject me openly, right?"

Li Huan laughed out loud, and said in a harsh voice, "That's right."

Xu Chenfang also smiled and said: "Then you give up, I won't say it. I don't have to force it, but I will never back down." He hung his head on her shoulder almost greedily, the corners of his eyes were red, and the eyes under his eyes were red. Moles of tears are full of pain.

***
Today, after Li Huan returned from Xu Shenfang's place, the eldest princess thought that there would be some changes, but nothing seemed to happen to Li Huan.

The Eldest Princess tried to ask Li Huan to call Xu Shenfang to eat at home, but Li Huan said nonchalantly, "He's busy, how can he come here anytime he has time?"

The tone was still the same casual tone as before, but after all, the eldest princess could hear something unusual.

When Li Huan went to the eldest princess's room to send things for the wedding, the eldest princess left her behind and said, "Have you seen the paintings in Xu Shenfang's study?"

Li Huan paused.

The eldest princess said again: "How do you think it compares with the little pictures you sent him?"

Li Huan looked calm, and while tidying up his things, he said: "It's not that good. The purpose of mother telling me to wipe the vase is to show me that? When did mother find out?"

The eldest princess said: "A few years ago, I discovered it by accident."

Li Huan said: "The painting is not bad." Then she turned and walked out, and said, "There are a lot of things these days, and there are still many things that need to be sorted out."

The eldest princess stopped her and said, "That's all?"

Li Huan paused at the door, and said, "Otherwise what else?"

The eldest princess had mixed feelings in her heart, she was a little annoyed, but more sad and distressed, she asked, "Is Xu Chenfang alright?"

Li Huan was silent for a moment, then replied: "He is very good."

The eldest princess said: "Of course he is very good. He has been waiting silently for these years and has never changed his mind for you. Then why do you just react like this? Why don't you think about him, why don't you try to accept him, why don't you work hard to start over?"

Li Huan turned his head, looked at the eldest princess with a smile, and said: "Mother is not ready to marry, why do you worry about these things instead?"
