Chapter 814 You are also persistent
"No problem, it's just a piece of cake."
"Yes, I'll take my leave." After saying that, Xie Shanxiang turned around and ran away.
"Your Highness, Miss Xie, Lord Qing." Jian Wu reminded.
Xiao Chen turned around and found Qing Chang'an and Xie Ying in the courtyard of Xinglinzhai. They had obviously seen him saving people.
Xie Ying, Qing Chang'an bowed to him from a distance.
Xiao Chen nodded slightly, and Jian Wu said, "My Lord, your shoes are wet, go back and change them."
In the blink of an eye, he was too anxious and accidentally got his shoes and the hem of his robe wet.
"Ah."
Xiao Chen responded and walked towards Gezhizhai.
In Xinglinzhai.
Qing Changan said: "His Royal Highness Prince Chen is indeed kind-hearted. No matter who it is, he will help."
Xie Ying looked at Qing Changan, "If it was Brother Qing, would you just watch him die without helping him?"
Qing Chang'an was stunned. Xie Ying's reaction made him feel a little uncomfortable. She was sure that Xiao Chen treated her differently from others.
Smiling, Qing Changan explained: "Of course not, it's just that just now I saw that His Royal Highness Prince Chen seemed quite nervous. I will save people, but I won't be that nervous around anyone."
"I only get nervous with people I care about."
"His Royal Highness Prince Chen grew up beside Master Changkong and has a kind heart like a bodhisattva, compassionate to all living beings. Therefore, there is a difference between him and His Royal Highness Prince Chen."
Xie Ying looked at Qing Changan, telling himself that Xiao Chen was equally good to everyone.
The kind of good that is like accepting everyone who comes?
Therefore, Xiao Chen didn't think he was anything special.
Qing Chang'an stood with his hands behind his back, looking indifferently in the direction of the lotus pond, "Sometimes, it would be nice to be as desireless as His Royal Highness Prince Chen, but unfortunately, I can't do that."
Xie Ying: “…”
That's what he meant.
Apart from anything else, she couldn't bear to see a talented man like Qing Chang'an being obsessed with love and thus affecting his future.
After thinking for a while, Xie Ying said, "It must be different."
After their eyes met, Xie Ying once again said with certainty, "It must be different!"
Qing Chang'an opened his mouth and asked, "Ah Ying is so sure?"
"Yes."
No matter how easy Xiao Chen is to get along with, or how compassionate he is to all living beings, he will never allow any girl to approach and seduce her.
"He treats me differently because of the peach blossom hairpin." Xie Ying said, touching the white jade peach blossom hairpin on her head.
Qing Chang'an's heart trembled, and his fear grew greater and greater, as if he was watching Aying leaving him.
Swallowing his saliva, Qing Changan said: "If you two finally get married in the future, I will definitely bless you. If three years later, he still hasn't promised to marry you like today..."
He said half of what he said.
Of course Xie Ying knew what he was going to say, but she didn't respond. She just didn't want to make him feel uncomfortable due to his illness, so she didn't say anything more heartless.
Qing Chang'an looked at Xie Ying and understood her determination.
But he also believed in his own judgment. As long as Xiao Chen was unwilling to marry Aying, he would wait until Aying changed her mind.
He was confident that, apart from Xiao Chen, there was almost no one in the capital who could match his abilities, family background, and talents.
"Well, let's not talk about him anymore. If there is anything you don't understand, let's... where are you going?"
Xie Ying held the book in his arms and bowed to Qing Chang'an, "I'm going to go find the prince."
Since her heart is entirely on His Royal Highness Prince Chen, Qing Chang'an should have given up earlier. And there is actually no need for her to use Qing Chang'an to test Xiao Chen.
If you are not in love, how can you be jealous?
The only chance of winning is that if we meet and talk every day, maybe he will get used to it over time, and over time, maybe I can live in his heart?
Xie Ying was walking along, looking at the lotus flowers in the pond, and she also wanted to pick some.
Of course, a scene like falling into the water is enough after being used once, and it will never be used a second time. Besides, a classmate just fell into the water.
Xie Ying put down the book.
Then he searched for a while by the lotus pond and finally picked two half-opened lotus flowers before going to Gezhizhai.
Inside Xinglinzhai.
When Qing Chang'an saw Xie Ying picking lotus flowers before going to Gezhizhai, his heart was already bleeding.
Xie Ying raised her white hand and knocked on the door.
Xiao Chen's voice came, "Come in."
Xie Ying walked in and Jian Wu walked out. The two looked at each other and nodded to each other.
"Brother Prince."
Xie Ying walked to the kang holding the book and two lotus flowers, only to see Xiao Chen sitting there. When he looked at her, there was no other expression on his face. He just nodded slightly, his eyes sweeping across the lotus in her arms.
When she walked over, Xiao Chen motioned for her to sit down.
Xie Ying nodded, "I picked two lotus flowers. Do you have any vases in your room? I'll put them in there for you."
Xiao Chen looked at it and said, "No."
There are two vases in the Imperial Observatory, and those two vases belong to Uncle Rong. It is said that the Queen Mother often sent flower arrangements to Uncle Rong.
Xie Ying frowned slightly and looked around. As expected, there was nothing suitable for flower arrangement, so he could only say, "It's a pity that this flower is going to wither."
Xiao Chen stood up and walked into the inner room.
Xie Ying thought to herself that he must be looking for a suitable object to hold the lotus.
Sure enough, after Xiao Chen went in, he brought out a white porcelain stewing pot and added some water into it.
Xie Ying cut the lotus shorter.
When Xiao Chen brought the stew pot over, Xie Ying put the lotus in it, "You know what, the white stew pot goes really well with the lotus."
Whatever she says is what it is.
Xie Ying then sat down. There were cakes and fruits on the small stool.
Is this specially prepared for her?
She didn't know, but she took the pastries on the stool and ate them, praising them while eating, and watching Xiao Chen's reaction.
I saw him reading a book, but the corners of his lips were not as clear as before, and seemed to be smiling a little.
"I have had many questions to ask you these days, my Lord, so I didn't come." She began to explain.
Xiao Chen said "hmm" and didn't ask any further questions.
Xie Ying continued, "I just thought that once he saw how persistent I was, he would no longer hold out hope."
Hearing this, Xiao Chen closed the book and looked up at Xie Ying, "You are also persistent."
Xie Ying: “…”
Qing Changan was persistent, and she refused, which caused a lot of trouble.
And now, Xiao Chen said that she was persistent. Was Xiao Chen saying this to ask her to let go, or did he mean something else?
Should I tell her that even if she persists, there will be no results?
Now, she doesn't want to mention whether there is any result or not. She just thinks that it would be a good thing if she could meet him every day or often.
After patting the cake paste on his hands, Xie Ying opened his book and read quietly with Xiao Chen.
The room suddenly became quiet, and Xiao Chen gradually couldn't continue reading.
He raised his head slightly and saw that the girl was reading the book very seriously, nodding from time to time, looking very reasonable.
The two of them were so happy together after such a long time, Xiao Chen smiled.
