Let's talk about today

The four of them sat for a while, but the rain didn't stop.Occasionally, the rain drifted into the window, which wet Li Jinzhao's sleeves.

In the end it was Liu Shangbai who couldn't sit still. Seeing that the time was almost up, he got up first, "If it's later, I'm afraid my father will be angry. Little brother, let's just say goodbye."

Jiang Leqi pulled him back, "Shang Bai, don't worry, I'll go with you." Then he turned to Li Jinchao and Xia Houyuan, "I'm sorry Jinchao, Young Master, I'll take my leave first. "

Liu Shangbai glanced at him questioningly, Jiang Leqi gave Xia Houyuan a sideways glance, and pulled Liu Shangbai away with a slightly strange expression.The two gradually walked away, and the scattered conversations were also hidden in the air.

"Brother Jiang, why are you..."

"Shang Bai, why don't you know so much! The young master is not something we can get close to, understand?"

"Then Brother Li..."

"Currently's cultivation is naturally not something we can match. If the three of us leave, it will inevitably make the young master lose face... Well, let's let Jinzhao ask for more blessings..."

All of a sudden, Li Jinchao and Xia Houyuan were left at the table of four, but fortunately, both of them held their breath, and neither of them had the intention of getting up first.After drinking two more pots of tea, Li Jinzhao gradually felt a little tired, and secretly looked at Xia Houyuan, only to see that he was only looking at the sky outside the window, the drizzle was reflected in his dark eyes, and he seemed to be fascinated by a layer of mist.

Li Jinzhao suddenly understood something, so he said: "Today is really unfortunate, I asked the carriage to go back first. If the young master doesn't mind, you can go back with me."

Xia Houyuan was stunned for a while, but there was a momentary smile in his eyes, "I was afraid that Brother Li would mind."

Li Jinchao got up first, and smiled at Xia Houyuan, "It's an honor."

"Are there words today?"

Li Jinzhao turned his head and smiled at him, "No words. Our Li family can't afford words." He paused, "I don't know, young master..."

Xia Houyuan flipped open the fan, on which was painted a pair of dark green bamboos, with his private seal on the lower right corner.He didn't look at Li Jinchao, and his tone was calm: "I do what I say."

"Do it?"

Xia Houyuan smiled at this time, "You are the first person to call me since my father passed away."

"It's an honor."

The two came down from the second floor together, and there were not many people in the Jujiang Building.A low voice came from a table on the west side, "Who is that young gentleman next to Mr. Li? It is actually rare."

"Looking at this figure, could it be the young master from the north of the city?"

"Oh, that's no wonder it's so rare."

The rain, which had been gradually waning, suddenly fell violently, and the discussions from that table were drowned in the sound of the rain and could no longer be heard clearly.Li Jinzhao propped up the oil-paper umbrella in his hand, with his slender hands resting on the handle, looking exceptionally pretty in the hazy mist.

Xia Houyuan followed him, and he frowned slightly when the rain splashed his white soft boots accidentally.Li Jinzhao thought it was not properly propped up, so he quietly turned the umbrella towards him.

It was quite a distance to walk from Jujiang Tower to Qingming Bridge, and halfway there was nothing to say. Li Jinzhao felt that the atmosphere was awkward, so he wanted to find a topic. After thinking about it for a while, he seemed to be unable to think of anything. Only this morning It wasn't such a wonderful encounter.

"I heard that the young master doesn't travel very much. I'm really embarrassed to meet the young master this morning and ask the young master to let me go."

Xia Houyuan turned his head, his eyes slightly puzzled: "You seem to care about this matter?"

Li Jinchao quickly waved his hand, "Of course not."

Xia Houyuan tapped the palm of his hand with the handle of the fan, and spoke in the same rhythm: "Actually, Xiao Wang also thinks it's okay. When my late father was alive, it seems that the relationship with your mansion was not very good?"

Li Jinchao didn't know how to reply for a moment.Xia Houyuan smiled indifferently, "I want to make friends with your mansion."

The rain wet half of Li Jinchao's shoulders, and a chill came from his arms, which was not very pleasant.He felt that Xia Houyuan's words were very sincere, and it was far from the Xia Houyuan that others said.The little Hou Ye who doesn't show his face much is not difficult to get along with.

Li Jinchao paused, then smiled and said, "Actually, it's not a big deal. I've thought about it for a long time."

Xia Houyuan stopped walking suddenly, Li Jinzhao couldn't stop for a moment, took half a step forward, and then hurried back.He raised his eyes and looked around, and it turned out that he had already reached the head of Qingming Bridge.

"Xiahou Xingzhi." The rain gradually subsided, and occasionally a few gusts of wind blew away the hazy mist. Xiahouyuan happened to stop under a tung tree, and the blooming flowers clustered around his shoulders, and some tung flowers were also stained on his body. Cold fragrance.There was a slight smile on his face, but it was not clear, and it was as ethereal as the Buddha's voice from ancient times.

Li Jinzhao still didn't quite understand what he meant, and only heard his voice continue: "I came out in a hurry, and I don't have anything else on me. Only this folding fan and this white jade fan pendant, if you don't mind making me a friend now, Just accept it."

Li Jinchao held the umbrella in one hand, and could only take the fan with his rain-drenched hand, feeling that it weighed a thousand catties for a moment.He thought that he didn't have any valuables on him, and when he was considering whether to go back to the house to take out the carved beast jade pendant, Xia Houyuan had already locked his eyes on his fan.

"Why don't you give me your fan as a gift?"

"This……"

Xia Houyuan looked at him gently, "I like your fan very much."

Li Jinzhao struggled for a while, and finally took off the folding fan at his waist and handed it to Xia Houyuan, "I don't have any valuable tokens on me, so I'm happy if you don't mind it."

The butler of Xiahou’s family had already held up an umbrella at the door at some point. Seeing that the conversation between the two was coming to an end, the butler trotted forward with interest, first bowed to Li Jinchao, and then respectfully bowed to Xiahou Yuan, “Chun Yu It's cold, Master Hou, let's go back home."

"All right, let's say goodbye."

Xia Houyuan nodded, turned and walked into the butler's umbrella.

Li Jinzhao held the fan, but didn't turn around and walked in the opposite direction.Seeing that Xia Houyuan's blue figure had walked three feet away, he turned his head again.The slightly cold voice passed through several layers of rain curtains, and no emotion could be heard, but Li Jinzhao vaguely saw his smile like a Fusang open in October.

"Currently, next time you might as well have a glass of wine with me."

Li Jinzhao on the other end smiled, "Definitely!"
