Xue Zhongyan's arrival made everyone even more embarrassed.Zhang Baile's current status is not good enough to go and talk to him, so he can only smile from the sidelines.Xue Zhongyan also simply said a few words to Hope Jane, and then took Hope Jane away.

"Goodbye, Teacher Sith." Hope Jane turned her head and greeted Zhang Baile, "Remember to come early for father's birthday party on Sunday night."

"Uh, okay."

The three of them didn't have much to talk about for the rest of the dinner, and Huo Puzhen wanted to match the two again, but both Zhang Baile and Hopson showed a lack of interest, and she couldn't say anything more.After chatting a few more hastily, everyone was ready to leave.

It was raining a little outside, and because he took Huo Puzhen's special car when he came here, Zhang Baile thought about taking a taxi back.

"I'll see you off." Hopson walked out of the manor with silver hair, stepping on the lanterns and night.

Zhang Baile was in a daze.

Hopson walked up to him, saw his stunned look, and smiled: "Do you think I look a lot like the major general?"

Zhang Baile nodded, then shook his head violently: "Yes, I'm sorry."

Hopson said, "No problem. Almost everyone thinks so."

Having said this, Hopson's expression seemed a little gloomy.But he quickly said: "It's not easy to take a taxi here, I'll go the same way with you, let's see you off."

"Then trouble you."

Zhang Baile was a little apprehensive.After all, Hope Jane said some very bad things tonight, and Hope Jane so obviously wanted to match the two...

"Did that bottle of perfume last time be given to the major general?" Hopson asked suddenly.

Zhang Baile paused, "Well, yes."

There was nothing wrong with admitting it, Zhang Baile felt that lying in front of Hopson was meaningless.Perfume is a very private thing, and it stands to reason that no one should know that he gave Hope Xueling this.But Hopson didn't know him well, and he didn't seem like the type to gossip.More importantly, this helps to reduce some of the ambiguous atmosphere that Hopkin had about the behavior of the two tonight.

Although it was narcissistic to think this way, Zhang Baile still didn't want Hopson to have any misunderstandings.

After admitting it, he felt a bit uneasy, and looked at Hopson's expression.

Hopson smiled and said, "It suits him very well."

Nothing seems wrong.

Zhang Baile also laughed, "Yes."

"However, chasing him should be more difficult." Hopson said suddenly, and glanced at Zhang Baile: "Although your surname is Sith."

Zhang Baile laughed awkwardly, "I didn't think that way either..."

"It's normal to have this kind of thinking." Hopson said: "Don't get me wrong, I'm not stopping you. On the contrary, I just hope that after you can see the reality clearly, you can persist bravely."

"...Why?" Zhang Baile paused, and said, "I mean, shouldn't everyone in the Hope family want Mrs. Xue to become the queen? Why do you still encourage me?"

Hopson glanced at him with a smile in his eyes, and this glance unexpectedly had the look of Hop Xueling: "Are you so confident that you can become a queen?"

Zhang Baile blushed, "No, and I won't chase him at all... I'm just curious, everyone is trying to match him with Mrs. Xue. I think Princess Zhen will suddenly talk about the matter between you and me tonight, It should also be that I threatened Mrs. Xue. I don't understand why Mr. Sen, who is also a member of the Hope family, would let me persist?"

"You are aware of Jane's intentions, it seems that you are not stupid." Hopson nodded and said straightforwardly.

Zhang Baile suddenly felt that his natural poisonous tongue was somewhat similar to Huo Pu Xueling.

Hopson was not embarrassed, turned the car around, and drove on a secluded path: "Then you should also know that it is the family's intention that I approach you, and it has been planned for a long time."

"...I didn't think so deeply about this." Zhang Baile said with a smile.

"No one likes to be a pawn, although we all have to be a pawn. I am so, so is he. It's just that his rights are greater than mine, but his responsibilities are also greater than mine." Hopson With a calm expression, "Everyone around him has been screened by the Hope family. Isn't it very miserable at such a young age?"

"I understand what you mean. Unfortunately, I'm not that person." Zhang Baile said, "Actually, you can tell Princess Zhen and the Hope family that they don't need to pay attention to me, because I won't be here How long to stay...it won't exceed a year."

Telling Hopson this, Zhang Baile also wanted to clean himself up this year.He didn't want to be an enemy of Hope's family, he just wanted to be with Major General and Hope Jane quietly, even if it was just as a teacher.

At this time, he had already arrived at Zhang Baile's manor. Hopson stopped the car, looked at the night ahead for a moment, and said in a low voice, "That's really a pity."

Zhang Baile still didn't understand the meaning of his words, and was about to ask him, when he looked up, he saw a car parked in front of them.

A silver-haired young man stood there with his back to them, the night was dark, I don't know how long he stood there.

Zhang Baile blinked, and suddenly looked at Hopson who was beside him.

He was well aware of Huo Pu Xueling's temper. When this person became jealous, he would draw his sword on the spot.Although the relationship between him and Hope Xueling is not what it used to be, but he is not completely unaware of the specialness of the major general towards him.

Seeing his terrified eyes, Hopson was amused: "What's the matter with the déjà vu of your husband coming home suddenly and urging your lover to hide in the closet?"

"...You can get it so that you seem to be familiar with this scene." Zhang Baile also complained directly, and there is no need to be polite in this situation: "I said, or I will get out of the car, and you just turn around and run away Bar."

"It's not that he doesn't know me. Where can I go?" Hopson said, opened the door and got out of the car.

Zhang Baile also quickly followed.

Naturally, Huop Xueling had heard their arrival early in the morning, and now she heard the sound of the car door closing, so she slowly turned around.

The major general was dressed in a military uniform, with shiny broad shoulder badges, a belt wrapped around his waist, and long boots wrapped around his long legs.The sword that was originally hanging around his waist was now being used as a crutch, and it was stuck in front of him.Standing there expressionless, seeing Hopson and Zhang Baile coming down together, Ling Ran glanced at Hopson.

Hopson didn't speak, but kept his hands in his pockets and glanced at Zhang Baile.

Hope Xueling also looked at Zhang Baile, frowning slightly, as if waiting for him to make an opening.

Zhang Baile was dumbfounded.

Is this waiting for me to introduce myself to you two?Which of your two cousins ​​do you not know?

Even though he thought so, Zhang Baile still coughed lightly: "Major General."

He just wanted to say, why are you here.But he bit his tongue, and if he said this, there would probably be a firecracker.So he smiled and said, "Uh, Jane's aunt invited me to dinner tonight, and His Highness Sen sent me back."

"Jane's aunt?" Hope Xueling frowned, "Which aunt is she?"

"It's Jane." Hopson said, bowing slightly: "Mr. Sith didn't bring a car, and the place is relatively remote, so I stopped by to send him back. I didn't expect to see you here."

Huop Xueling raised her eyebrows, as if she just saw Hopson, she also nodded slightly, but she was noble and cold without saying a word.

"Then my task is complete." Hopson smiled and bowed again.Then he winked at Zhang Baile, turned around, got in the car and left.

Since the major general stayed with him last time, he has been busy with government affairs.The relationship between him and the major general seems to be a bit ambiguous, but after serious investigation, nothing actually happened, it was just a parent who came to visit the teacher.

Sometimes adult relationships are just that weird.On a certain unspeakable scale, if you take a step back, the two are irrelevant; if you take a step further, you will be intimate and lingering.On this scale, the two can be said to be tacit, or wishful thinking on one side.

This is probably the ambiguous charm.

Zhang Baile collected his mentality, walked over slowly, and said with a smile, "Major General, do you want to go in and have a cup of tea?"

In the night, Huo Pu Xueling's demeanor was unclear, and he didn't speak or leave.

Zhang Baile had no choice but to push open the door, and warmly invited himself: "Please come in."

Hope Xueling walked in.

The fragrance of hot tea permeated the ancient manor. Zhang Baile put two cups of tea on the coffee table, and his movements suddenly froze.

"What's wrong?" Unexpectedly, Huo Pu Xueling noticed it immediately and asked him.

"Ah, it's nothing. I just suddenly thought that drinking tea at night will probably make me unable to sleep." Zhang Baile paused, "Otherwise, I'll boil the milk?"

Huo Puxueling stopped talking again, and leaned on the sofa to read the official documents, as if she didn't hear what Zhang Baile was saying at all.

This person... Zhang Baile wondered if he was asking himself just now.

But he turned around and went to the kitchen to prepare hot milk, and exchanged for two more pastries in the main god space. Seeing the amount displayed on it, it was a few dollars more expensive than last week.

Zhang Baile suddenly thought of what Sisi Youle said, let him get some money from Hope Xueling, so that he can come here next time he has a chance.

His current salary in the kindergarten is of course considered good, but compared with the prices of billions of dollars in the main god space, it is not enough at all.But he can't rashly ask Hope Xueling for money, right?Or borrow some from him?Just walk away when you leave?Is this a scam?What does that matter, isn't it all to come back to see his dear major general...

Zhang Baile was full of these strange thoughts, and finally thought, he can ask Sisi Yule later if there is any way to make quick money here.

Thinking of this, he put hot milk and pastries on the dinner plate, turned around and walked to the living room.

Huo Pu Xueling had already read the official document, and sat there as if doing nothing.Seeing Zhang Baile coming over to put down the milk and pastries, the major general seemed a little unhappy: "I thought you ate it yourself inside."

"..." Zhang Baile resisted his desire to fight back, and looked at him with a smile: "Sorry for keeping you waiting, please use it."

The major general looked up at him, "Did I bother you?"

"How could it be?" Zhang Baile smiled and sat down opposite him, "The major general is here because of Princess Jane's studies, right? She has been seriously studying recently..."

"I didn't ask her." Hope Xueling said directly.

"..." Zhang Baile lowered his head, looking left and right.

"What are you looking for?"

Find a seam.Zhang Baile wanted to answer him very much, but then he looked at him as naturally as possible despite the embarrassment in capital letters: "Huh? It's nothing. Then you came..."

Hope Xueling paused, "Forget it, it's nothing."

Zhang Baile really didn't know what he was going to do, he couldn't figure it out.It just so happened that he was a little thirsty, and felt that eating at Huo Puzhen's house was not enough, so he ate the pastries on his own.

Huop Xueling picked up the milk and took a sip, probably also feeling embarrassed, and was about to say something.Fortunately, at this time, someone came in from the terminal, and he answered it.

Zhang Baile continued to eat.After eating two pieces of cakes and milk, I feel that it is more appropriate.

Hope Xueling was still chatting with others, and ate a small piece of cake.Zhang Baile put away his dishes and went into the kitchen, washed them, and then took the kettle to the yard to water the flowers and plants.

Back in the living room, Hope Xueling was still chatting with someone who happened to be someone Zhang Baile knew, Wu Chen Liuyun.

When passing by the major general, Zhang Baile saw a piece of cream on the back of the little finger of the major general's right hand.Enduring his obsessive-compulsive disorder, he ignored him and walked into the bedroom.

He was going to deal with some tasks assigned to him by the head of the garden today. The head of the head wanted to repair the compasses.Just sitting down in front of the computer, I suddenly saw an orange gift bag at hand.

...is perfume.

Zhang Baile was suddenly blessed. Hope Xueling has been hanging out here tonight. Could it be for a gift?But... a 25-year-old, would he still do such a childish thing?

Hearing the major general's deep and cold voice from the living room, Zhang Baile suddenly felt like a cat scratching his heart.Anyway, he really wanted to smell it...

I dare not spray this thing on Huo Pu Xueling, but it should be fine to use a little by myself.

Zhang Baile quietly took out the perfume, and wiped it on his wrist with a small sample.The house has the quaint taste of an old manor, and a vaguely sweet orange scent slowly permeated out. Zhang Baile took a deep breath, feeling a little throbbing in his heart.

The sound in the living room is gone, it should be because the terminal is finished.Zhang Baile thought for a while, stood up, and walked out of the room with the gift bag.

Hope Xueling sat on the sofa with his back to him, staring at the pastry in a daze.

Zhang Baile walked over, pulled a piece of paper and handed it to him.

The major general looked up at him puzzled.

Zhang Baile stretched out his hand, through the paper towel, gently rolled over the Major General's hand, exposing the back of his hand.

Then Hope Xueling saw the cream on her right little finger and frowned.He looks a bit like Hope Jane.Zhang Baile smiled and wiped it off for him.

The major general moved the tip of his nose, and suddenly asked, "What did you wipe?"

"Does it smell good?"

"..."

Zhang Baile sighed, thinking that Hope Jane was right.It is too difficult to hear a good word from the major general.

He suddenly hesitated.But after a while, he still took out the other hand behind his back and handed it to him.

Hope Xueling glanced at him, "What is this?"

"Birthday gift." Zhang Baile pretended to be relaxed. Anyway, whether he likes it or not, he has already bought it.

The major general did not accept the gift, "Perfume?"

Zhang Baile didn't speak, just looked at him with a smile.However, when the major general said the next sentence, he couldn't hold back and wanted to rub his face vigorously twice.

"Did you steal my gift, or did you give me what you didn't want?" Hope Xueling asked him condescendingly while sitting on the sofa, with a cool face.

"...Don't forget it, there are so many nonsense." Zhang Baile finally couldn't help it, and was about to withdraw his hand immediately.

But he was grabbed by the wrist, and the place touched was like ice and snow touching flames.

Zhang Baile shuddered, his heart exploded.

Hope Xueling didn't look at him this time, and took the gift bag, "Thank you."

Immediately, he let go of him, as if everything just now was just an illusion.

Zhang Baile took a deep breath and said softly, "Happy 26th birthday to you."

queen.

Zhang Baile said silently in his heart.
