Rouge wrong

Shen Cuo is not a person with strong sympathy, but for Bai Linqiu, who is as delicate and fragile as a flower, she really can't help but feel pity in her heart.

As the daughter of the owner of Baiyun Villa and the title of the most beautiful woman in the martial arts world, she should have been favored by thousands of people.

But what Shen Cuo saw was a submissive, without his own opinion, at the mercy of his father and fiance, unable to control his own destiny.

His father was obsessed with fulfilling the last wish of the deceased master, and used her as a tool to maintain the relationship with Shen Zheng, neither giving her the care and education she deserved, nor giving her love.

Her husband is cowardly and incompetent, and has been pursuing things that don't belong to him since he was born. He married her just to get her father's full support.

Like a leaf of duckweed, she can only follow the waves of this pool, as if she has confirmed the saying that the beauty is poor.

Naturally, Bai Linqiu is not the most miserable person Shen Cuo has ever seen, after all, there are many people in this world who have lost their parents, are hungry, and are displaced.

But she seems to be born with the ability to arouse the compassion of others, and the grievances that fall on her will be magnified ten times and a hundred times, making people feel that fate is unfair to her.

Shen Cuo once felt this way too, so he couldn't turn a blind eye to her.

"Are you sympathetic to Miss Bai?"

Rouge originally thought that Shen Cuo didn't know what kind of feelings she had for Bai Linqiu, at least not so easily. She didn't expect that Shen Cuo's words were much clearer than she thought.

"I do sympathize with her, but I don't like her."

Rouge couldn't tell what Shen Cuo meant by "like" for a while, Shen Cuo frowned and continued: "I thought about helping Bai Linqiu, but she couldn't make a decision by herself, so what if I help her decide?

But Xie Yu persuaded me at that time, and I realized that although I sympathized with her and wanted to help her, I mostly didn't want her, and was essentially no different from those who wanted her.

Therefore, I gave up the idea of ​​persuading her, or even taking her away forcefully, and let her make her own choice. "

This is also Shen Cuo's second reason for not wanting to face Bai Linqiu. It seems that in front of Bai Linqiu, she is no different from Shen Zheng, Bai Yan and others.

The strong treat the weak - especially a weak without assertiveness, will not treat the weak with equal eyes.

She obviously hates such weak people, and also hates people who exploit such weak people, but when she met Bai Linqiu, everything seemed out of control.

In fact, it wasn't just her at the time, Bai Quan and Wen Shi also hoped to save Bai Linqiu from the sea of ​​suffering.

Si Ming never judged these things, only Xie Yu dissuaded her at that time.

"I'm glad I listened to Jieyu's advice at that time. After seeing Bai Linqiu again, I always had a strange feeling..."

Shen Cuo put down his pen, with a pensive expression on his face: "She doesn't seem to have changed anywhere, and everything seems to have changed. Is it because she is already a man? Is it the relationship between a wife and a mother?"

Rouge couldn't see Shen Cuo being distressed, she reached out her hand to smooth the wrinkles between her brows: "Maybe it's just a little strange after not seeing her for a long time."

Shen Cuo seemed too lazy to think deeply, grabbed Yanzhi's hand and nodded, "That's probably the case, actually, I haven't been with Bai Linqiu for long, but I'm more familiar with Huo Zisu.

This Bai Linqiu is a lady of everyone, no more than Huo Zisu, that unruly young lady who scolds us every day. "

Yanzhi laughed "puchi": "Ms. Huo has scolded you too much?"

"That's not true, they can't beat me, of course they can only use their mouths."

"Fortunately, you get along very well now."

Shen Cuo stared and said: "What's wrong? I haven't forgotten what Huo Zisu did to me. She is so comfortable now, thanks to my lord's abundance."

Rouge had no choice but to nod in agreement: "Yes, yes, it is Master Shen who has a lot."

Shen Cuo heard her perfunctory words, and puffed his face dissatisfiedly: "Has your attitude towards me become more and more rash recently? And you are also called Shopkeeper Shen!"

Rouge pretended to sigh, and said helplessly: "Obviously you don't want me to use the honorific title, but now you dislike me for being rash. Don't let me call you Shopkeeper Shen, and don't tell me what to call you...how can I still call you directly? No name?"

Calling her name directly... This is a possibility that Shen Cuo never imagined, after all, Rouge has never called anyone older than her by name until now.And there are very few people who can call her by name.

"Name?" Shen Cuo looked at Yanzhi incredulously, "Did you call me Shen Cuo?"

Yanzhi tried her best to suppress her heartbeat, while pretending to be calm and said: "I heard that Miss Bai called you Ah Cuo..."

Shen Cuo immediately raised his brows, and said angrily, "When did she call me Ah Cuo?"

Rouge felt her anger, shrank her neck in shock, and looked at Shen Cuo pitifully: "Yes, that's when I took Miss Bai to the guest room that day, she called you like that...you don't like it, I won't called."

Seeing that Yan Zhi was frightened, Shen Cuo quickly softened his expression, but he still couldn't hide the annoyance on his face.

"It's not that I don't like your name... Shen Zheng once called me that. Bai Linqiu probably imitated him."

"Sorry……"

Shen Cuo sighed: "You don't need to apologize...but forget about this title."

Rouge nodded in frustration, the atmosphere was a little dull for a while.It is rare for Shen Cuo to notice that Yan Zhi is depressed when he is unhappy. After thinking for a while, he said, "Instead of calling me by my name, it is better to call me by my word. Auntie gave me a word as good as Wuwang, and there are not many words now." Someone called."

Compared with names, words can only be called by people who are closer.Rouge just wanted to test Shen Cuo's attitude towards Bai Linqiu before, but she didn't expect that she would actually say this proposal directly.

"It's not good..."

"Why not? You can call me by my name, why can't you call me by my name?"

"But I didn't say I would call you by your first name..."

Shen Cuo was upset, and pinched Rouge's face: "Then I didn't ask you to be called by your name, but did I ask you to be called by your name?"

Faced with Shen Cuo's aggressiveness, Rouge blushed and faltered for a long time without uttering a word.

On the contrary, Shen Cuo saw her so shy and suddenly got inspiration. He took an unused brush with one free hand, and said happily: "Nice girls are ashamed, and the years have no worries" 1", Rouge, I want to paint Draw it like this. "

Yanzhi was even more shy when she heard it, she didn't want to stop her, she didn't want to stop her, she yelled: "Shopkeeper Shen, don't play tricks on me."

Shen Cuo had roughly drawn the outline just now, how could he listen to her at this time?He opened the small box of cinnabar on the desk, picked some up with his little finger and put it on a porcelain plate, and took some water to smear the cinnabar.

"Rouge, look after you."

Rouge was shy, but couldn't help but follow Shen Cuo's words and looked at the table. Shen Cuo sucked some red ink with the brush in his hand, and the red tip of the pen fell gently on the portrait.

With crimson cheeks, bright red lips and eye-catching peach-red birthmarks, Shen Cuo only used one paint and one pen to paint three completely different colors, which is really amazing.

What is even more amazing is the paintings she made. Freehand paintings care about the spirit, but Shen Cuo's paintings are both in form and spirit.

The simple lines outlined with a few strokes just now seem to suddenly come alive under this finishing touch.

At this moment, Rouge is sitting in her arms and also on her painting.

Looking at this lifelike portrait, Yan Zhi was stunned for a moment, seemingly unbelievable.

Shen Cuo was quite satisfied with his masterpiece, and said triumphantly: "How is my painting?"

Rouge was stunned for a while, then murmured: "Shopkeeper Shen is so powerful, he obviously didn't look at me, he just painted a few strokes casually..."

Shen Cuo raised his eyebrows: "A painter, the scene is in the heart, and the hand comes as he wants, so why compare the entity?

Not to mention that this is a freehand brushwork painting rather than a meticulous painting, it is a meticulous painting, and I can tell you to draw it exactly without looking at you. "

Yan Zhi suddenly turned her head, looked into Shen Cuo's eyes and said, "You mean, do you mean that I am in your heart?"

Shen Cuo blurted out and wanted to answer yes, but suddenly his heart tightened when he saw Yan Zhi's expression and eyes, and he couldn't answer half a sentence.

At this time, she deeply realized one thing, that rouge is not only in her paintings, but also in her eyes and in her heart.

Shen Cuo looked at Yanzhi without blinking, and for some reason saw the shyness and anxiety that could not be concealed under her serious demeanor.

This bit of shyness and anxiety made Shen Cuo feel sour and sweet in his heart, and his mind was wandering, as if he was drunk.

"rouge……"

Just when Shen Cuo was in a trance, he heard hurried footsteps outside, and there was more than one person.

Almost at the same time she woke up, the sound of those footsteps also reached the door, and Shen Bing's voice sounded outside the door: "Young Master, Your Highness the Eldest Princess is here to visit!"

Shen Cuo was like waking up from a dream, but he still couldn't come back to his senses for a while, he just stared blankly at Yan Zhi's face, reminiscing about the feeling just now.

In the end, Rouge gently pushed her arm, and said in a low voice, "Master Shen, brother Shen Bing said that the eldest princess is here."

The eldest princess came to Yanzhou suddenly, which is a big event.But at this time, Shen Cuo only heard the words "the eldest princess is here", without any surprise or joy.

And she felt that apart from the thumping of her heart just now, there was nothing in this world that could surprise her or delight her.

"What is the eldest princess doing here?"

She asked Rouge, not realizing that the other party could not answer this question.Even her tone seemed to be completely unaware that the eldest princess of the Yan Dynasty was her mother.

Rouge lowered her head, like a shy lily-of-the-valley flower, her voice was as thin as a mosquito: "Today is your birthday, the eldest princess may be here to celebrate your birthday."

This is indeed a reasonable explanation, but Shen Cuo didn't seem to hear it. He looked at Yanzhi and said, "Whoever it is, let her go back, okay? We won't see anyone else today."

"what……"

Shen Cuo has always played cards unreasonably, but Rouge still didn't expect that she could ignore everything when she got mixed up.

Not to mention that today is her birthday, a dinner party has been arranged and guests have been invited, but Liu Rongzhi has traveled thousands of miles to come here, so she can't miss people.
