Chapter 759
Zhang Aiju excitedly ran to the warm pavilion, and told Ling Xiao about Mrs. Qi's invitation from Shangshufu.

"Madame Qi really wants to meet you, and invited you to have tea in the Songhe Tower in the capital."

Ling Xiao couldn't refuse, so he could only pretend to smile obediently and said, "Okay!"

Zhang Aiju ordered Shuanghe to open the closet, and personally picked out a lavender makeup dress for Ling Xiao, and put it on for Ling Xiao, and painted her eyebrows with powder, making Ling Xiao look elegant and refined.

Ling Xiao looked at the bronze mirror, and the original owner looked beautiful and picturesque, with a natural smile on his brows and eyes, and he looked like a cute Yuxue with a pearl flying in the dust.

Now that Ling Xiao is here, her demeanor is relatively indifferent and casual, which is not inconsistent with the original owner's appearance, but adds a bit of mysterious and quiet beauty to the original owner.

Dressed up properly, Ling Xiao went out with Zhang Aiju.

Songhe Tower is located in the prosperous inner city of Fusheng, the capital city, very close to the streets where dignitaries live. It is located beside the green and surging moat. It is five stories high and looks majestic and luxurious.

As a noblewoman in the capital, Zhang Aiju was quite familiar with the situation in Songhe Tower. Under Zhang Aiju's leadership, Ling Xiao went straight to the second floor box.

Mrs. Qi is the aunt of Mr. Zhou Yi. She looks elegant and dignified, like a noble lady in the capital. When she saw Ling Xiao and Zhang Aiju walk around the screen, she immediately got up and greeted them.

Ling Xiao was silent the whole time, smirking, and tried his best to put on an elegant and virtuous posture. Mrs. Qi seemed to have a good impression of her. After drinking a cup of tea, Mrs. Qi proposed to take Zhang Aiju to see the Shangshufu. somewhere industry.

"Jinyu Pavilion is a shop that I bought a few years ago. It employs some well-known craftsmen in the capital. If Mrs. Zhang likes it, I can pick out some beautiful jewelry for you."

Zhang Aiju seemed a little flattered, and quickly declined: "You don't have to be so polite!"

Mrs. Qi smiled and said: "They are all going to be in-laws, why bother to meet me? What's more, Ling Xiao is so good-looking, and there happened to be a set of emerald hair masks in the Jinyu Pavilion. If Ling Xiao wears it, it must be It’s the icing on the cake and adds color to the beauty.”

Zhang Aiju couldn't help feeling proud, it seemed that the other party had chosen her own daughter, and sure enough, her daughter was beautiful and virtuous, and she was quite popular among the noble ladies in the capital.

Zhang Aiju gave Mrs. Qi a suggestive look, smiled at Ling Xiao and said, "Ling Xiao, just sit here drinking tea, eating snacks, and listening to storytelling in the lobby on the first floor."

"Madam Qi and I will come whenever we go, you are not allowed to run away alone!"

Ling Xiao nodded helplessly in agreement.

A while later, when Mrs. Qi and Zhang Aiju left Songhe Tower, sure enough, Mr. Zhou Yi came at the appointment, and seeing Ling Xiao sitting alone by the window on the second floor, he greeted Ling Xiao friendly.

Ling Xiao greeted him with a calm expression, showing no curiosity at all.

Zhou Yi gave a brief introduction and asked straight to the point: "Miss Bai, I saw you at the Lantern Festival Lantern Festival before, and I was deeply impressed by you. I wonder if you...are the same as me?"

Ling Xiao shook his head calmly, and said with a smile, "I have no impression of you, nor am I interested in you."

This is embarrassing.

Zhou Yi was slightly taken aback, and said with a smile, "Miss Bai, don't you come here for a blind date today?"

Ling Xiao held up the exquisite white porcelain teacup: "This is the order of my parents, so don't disobey it."

Zhou Yi understood now, and smiled awkwardly: "Actually, I have already had someone I like, but it's just that there is no fate. I think Miss Bai is a gentle and dignified lady, and I am in the same family. Well, it must be very beneficial to you and me."

This is a more utilitarian statement.

Men like to hug left and right. First marry a famous wife, and then marry a romantic and stunning aunt, that would be perfect.

Ling Xiao didn't break the other party's careful thinking, and smiled calmly: "Shall we have a cup of tea together?"

Zhou Yi mistakenly thought that the other party was trying to test him, so he quickly showed the demeanor of a modest and modest son, drinking tea and listening to operas with Ling Xiao.

At this moment, Pei Zheng came down from the third floor of Songhe Tower. He was talking to a friend about something. He was sitting at the window on the third floor just now, and accidentally spotted Ling Xiao and his mother Zhang Aiju coming in together.

Pei Zheng couldn't sit still.

Seeing that he was restless, his friend kindly reminded him: "The beautiful woman just now is the daughter of the servant's mansion. I am afraid that I came to Songhe Tower today for a blind date."

Pei Zheng remained expressionless, and said with a smile, "Of course I know her identity. It's a coincidence that I met her at such an important moment."

The friend sighed regretfully: "Pei Zheng, if you like that beautiful woman, your current status is far from enough! King Qin, Queen, think about it yourself!"

Pei Zheng's expression remained unmoved, and he said with a smile, "Brother Zhao, don't say such depressing words, come here and let me toast you!"

Having said that, Pei Zheng ended the secret conversation with his friend ahead of schedule.

He hesitated for a moment, then walked straight towards Ting Zhuxuan on the second floor, and when he came to the door of the box, his footsteps froze suddenly.

Suddenly I felt a little ridiculous.

He only had a two-way relationship with the beautiful woman, and the beautiful woman might not necessarily fall in love with him. If he disturbed her so recklessly, he might encounter her rejection and disdain instead.

Pei Zheng, Pei Zheng, you have been chic and calculating all your life, how could you make a mistake in this kind of thing?
Love between a man and a woman is, after all, a poison that kills people!

Pei Zheng turned around and was about to leave, feeling quite disheartened. At this moment, Ling Xiao opened the door of the box and came out, asking immediately, "Are you eavesdropping?"

Pei Zheng was shocked, and subconsciously retorted: "No! I happened to pass by here, and I overheard your voice, and I really... miss you."

The last word was secretly wrapped around his lips and tongue, revealing an indescribable lightness and tenderness.

Ling Xiao narrowed his bright peach eyes, and his red lips parted slightly: "Stop sticking here!"

Pei Zheng mistakenly thought that she was going to drive him away, and all thoughts were lost immediately, and he replied disheartened: "Okay! I'll listen to you!"

When Pei Zheng walked three steps away, Ling Xiao suddenly caught up, walked side by side with him, and said with a smile: "I just said goodbye to Mr. Zhou Yi! It's because you guarded the door, and you have a tacit understanding with you, and I think you must be here." Eavesdropping. You still don't admit it!"

Pei Zheng was stunned and stared at Ling Xiao in bewilderment.

Ling Xiao raised his head proudly on purpose, and said with a smile, "Let's go! You idiot!"

Pei Zheng's reaction was a beat slower, and when Ling Xiao had walked for a while, he suddenly realized that he couldn't help but catch up with Ling Xiao's footsteps.

"Just now, you were on a blind date with Mr. Zhou Yi of the Shangshu Mansion?"

"Ah."

Pei Zheng felt uneasy: "Then what do you think about him...?"

Ling Xiao shrugged indifferently: "He is nice, but it's a pity that he already has his own heart."

Pei Zheng was immediately annoyed. It was too late for him to love such a graceful and elegant beauty, but that Mr. Zhou Yi dared to despise her. It was unforgivable!

Ling Xiao glanced at him helplessly: "I heard that Zhou Yi's favorite is the concubine of General Zhenbei's mansion, that Mo Yunqing, how about you? Do you have a crush on Mo Yunqing?"

Pei Zheng deliberately walked on Ling Xiao's left, blocking the smoke and dust on the street and pedestrians coming and going for her.

Pei Zheng thought about it carefully, and said with a smile: "I don't know her very well. I only knew that she was infatuated with Chu Zihao, the war king, and tried her best to marry him. Then there was a dispute, and she fell into the water and drowned."

"Oh? How do you know so clearly?"
