Men are superior to women: the heartthrob in Yunqi

"Aci, why are you here?" Mu Yao immediately quickened her pace and trotted towards him.

"I'm here to pick you up." Xie Ci's face was calm, and his voice was calm, but his eyes passed over Mu Yao and went straight to the silver-haired man in a red robe. Today, he was not wearing a golden mask, and his stunning appearance was fully displayed, which made Xie Ci clench his fists under his wide robe.

"Mr. Shen has the appearance of a phoenix and the demeanor of a dragon, and he is elegant and refined. Seeing him today, I feel inferior to him." Xie Ci said in a deep voice with his hands clasped. After that, he glanced at Mu Yao intentionally or unintentionally.

Shen Chutang's beautiful eyes curved, and she smiled and said, "Thank you for your compliment, sir. Everyone knows that Yunqi's number one son is both talented and handsome, the best in the world. I am just a tea merchant, but my parents gave me a good face, so I have more opportunities to do business."

Seeing the two of them arguing back and forth, Mu Yao quickly said, "Ah Ci, time is running out, let's go to the palace quickly."

Xie Ci's face paused. He looked at Mu Yao and stared at her for three seconds. Then he looked at Shen Chutang again and bowed, saying, "Mr. Shen, you are too modest. I have something to do today. I, Xie, will take Yaoyao back first. See you another day. Goodbye!" After he finished speaking, he took Mu Yao's hand and turned to leave.

"Wait a minute." Shen Chutang said with a half-smile, "Please wait a moment, Master. I will have a word with my wife."

His gentle gaze fell on Mu Yao again. Shen Chutang took her other hand and whispered, "How about we go to Tiluo to eat together tomorrow?"

Mu Yao nodded subconsciously, but before she could respond, Xie Ci pulled her closer to her and walked out of the teahouse.

The black sandalwood carriage was parked at the gate.

Xie Ci carefully helped Mu Yao onto the carriage, took out the food box, placed four desserts on the table and said, "It's too late to go back home, so eat something first." He then placed a mini tea stove on the table to warm up the fragrant tea.

Mu Yao's heart ached, and she felt full of guilt. She took off her veil, sniffed twice, and with red eyes, she pulled his hand and said, "Ah Ci, it's my fault. I delayed the time. If you are unhappy, don't hold it in. If you want to scold me, you can scold me, and if you want to hit me, you can do it."

What to say!

Xie Ci's heart softened, and he looked at Mu Yao quietly. His wife was really good, considerate and gentle, and she would apologize to her husband even if she knew she was wrong. She was much better than other noble ladies. What else could he ask for? But he was still very unhappy, especially when he saw her dressed like this.

He frowned slightly and changed the subject to ask, "Didn't Yaoyao go to Xiaoling Mountain with Shen Chutang to have a picnic today?"

Mu Yao choked and nodded, "Yes, I am a little short of preparations today and don't have time to go. I will go tomorrow."

Ah.

Xie Ci sneered in his heart, but his face remained calm. He raised his voice and said in a very steady voice: "Yaoyao, this dress is really unique, and the bracelet on your wrist also suits you very well. Shen Chutang has a good eye and has won Yaoyao's heart."

. . . . . . Is her "good life" about to begin so soon?

She poured a cup of hot tea for Xie Ci, picked up a piece of mung bean cake for him, and said coquettishly, "Ah Ci, Chu Tang felt that it was inappropriate for me to wear a low-cut skirt to attend the banquet in the palace, so he chose a high-cut one for me to change into. As for this bracelet, it was a gift from his mother to me."

After Mu Yao said this, Xie Ci's expression eased. He stared at the colorful glass bracelet in a daze, thinking about the treasure house that his parents left for him. Because of his sadness, he never opened it. This time, he brought Yao Yao back, so he could check it out.

"Aci, why don't you eat? Are you still angry with me?" Mu Yao called him twice, but he ignored her.

"No, I just thought of something."

Xie Ci picked up the mung bean cake and took a bite. He liked sweets, but Yaoyao didn't, so the cakes made in the mansion only had half a percentage of sugar in them, which tasted slightly sweet and refreshing without being greasy.

However, Mu Yao's words did not dispel Xie Ci's doubts. The corner of his eyes fell on her again, and he couldn't help asking, "You didn't go to the stove to eat today, but came downstairs after the hour of You. Did you just drink tea?"

Perhaps he knew that it was inappropriate for him to ask this question, and all emotions were gone from his eyes, leaving only a puzzled look.

Mu Yaofu blushed, curled her index finger unconsciously, and said calmly: "Well, there is also chess. Ah Ci, I am good at chess. Last time I played against the crown prince Ye Qinghan, I almost got the checkmate, but he was very shameless and we were forced to draw. How about I play a few games with you when I have time?"

Xie Ci was so upset that he had to believe it no matter how unwilling he was to do so. He sighed softly in his heart and swallowed the remaining half of the mung bean cake weakly. He asked unexpectedly, "I got the news today that Xu Qingcheng and Lord Wang, the Minister of the Dali Temple, are here. And Taifu Li and Prime Minister Xu will also arrive in Beiming one after another. Yaoyao, have you thought about how to tell them?"

"Well! Don't worry, I'll take care of everything." Mu Yao said affirmatively. She actually had no idea what to say. But this did not affect her decision.

There will always be a road when the car reaches the mountain, and the boat will naturally go straight when it reaches the bridge. Just follow your heart.
