Chapter 301: A Complete Life
But it was a matter of life and death, even if Emperor Yan detoxified, he could not stay in Jin.
"Okay..." Bai Qingyan nodded, "But Yufeng...you take it back and say to the outside world that your gift was rejected by me."
"This is my brother's wish." Xiao Rongyan had a faint smile on his lips, "If you don't accept it, my brother can't feel at ease."
"Accepted to provoke criticism." Bai Qing said with a firm attitude, "If Mr. Hong can successfully detoxify Emperor Yan this time, I will not accept it later, otherwise, with the virtue of the Shuoyang clan, I am afraid it will force our Bai family To hand over this treasure handed down from generation to generation is to live up to the kindness of Emperor Yan and Mr. Xiao."
Bai Qingyan's words are true, it's not like Xiao Rongyan has never seen what the Shuoyang clan looks like.
"Then I'll take it back and treat it as Miss Bai's temporary storage here." Xiao Rongyan stroked the jade cicada in his hand with his fingers, looked up at her, handed it over to her, and said gently, "In that case, Miss Bai Just take this first."
Yuchan...
Her pupils trembled slightly, the time when Xiao Rongyan gave her Yuchan in the last life was the most embarrassing time for her.
Xiao Rongyan asked him to take his jade cicada and run for his life...
Unexpectedly, in this life, Xiao Rongyan sent this jade pendant in front of her again, with a completely different gentle tone from the previous life.
"This is Mr. Xiao's personal belongings, it is unreasonable to accept it." Bai Qingyan tightened her hands hidden in her sleeves slightly.
Xiao Rongyan took a step forward, blocked the sight of Nanny Qin and Chuntao with his back, grabbed Bai Qingyan's slender wrist, and put Yuchan into Bai Qingyan's hand: "This is my mother's relic. It was given by an expert back then. I gave it to my mother, saying it would keep me safe, but later...the palace was in chaos, my mother hung the jade cicada that never left her body on me, and asked my uncle to take me to escape, and I was safe..."
Xiao Rongyan stepped back a little and stared at the towering trees in the yard with green spring buds sprouting.
Xiao Rongyan still remembers the chaotic scene back then.
I also remember that my mother hung Yuchan on him, hugged him tightly, and told him to save his brother and live well.
It was the first time in Xiao Rongyan's memory that she saw her mother's tears. She was such a strong and powerful person, because she was convinced that her husband couldn't even protect her own children. Xiao Rongyan didn't understand what kind of despair she must be at that time.
Later... when his elder brother had a child and was murdered by the remnants left by his father, he could vaguely understand how his mother's heart was pierced by a knife.
Seeing Xiao Rongyan staring deeply at the big tree, he seemed to be in a certain mood.
"At that time, the big tree in the palace was taller than this one. The old uncle took me to hide in the tree, covered by the dense leaves and branches. When I saw my father coming, I wanted to call for help, but the old uncle grabbed me. mouth, I just watched those black-clothed assassins kneeling in front of the father to return to life, and I knew this was what the father meant."
The lifelike jade cicada still had the temperature of Xiao Rongyan's palm on it, Bai Qingyan looked down at it...it was exactly the same as the jade cicada in the previous life.
Xiao Rongyan lowered his eyes, pulled away from that painful emotion, turned his head and looked deeply at Bai Qingyan: "So, I once swore... If I marry a wife one day, I will definitely believe in my wife, protect her. She's perfect all her life."
His deep and bewildering eyes just looked at Bai Qingyan so quietly, it even made Bai Qingyan feel a little... There was an illusion of affection hidden in his eyes.
It was as if this was his promise to her.
Bai Qingyan gently tightened the hand holding Yuchan, and then took Yuchan back to Xiao Rongyan: "Such a precious Yuchan, how dare you accept it, please take it back, Mr. Xiao."
"If you don't even accept Yuchan, then how will Xiao explain to her brother? Miss Bai should not make things difficult for Xiao."
Without waiting for Bai Qingyan to refuse again, Xiao Rongyan changed the subject with a smile: "The prince held a polo match on the sixth day of April, don't you know Miss Bai will go?"
"At that time, let Xiao Si take a few children to the fun, I won't go." She turned around and looked at Xiao Rongyan, "Mr. Xiao still has something to do..."
"What if I want to invite you?"
When Xiao Rongyan's mellow and warm voice came, Bai Qingyan's heart skipped a beat.
His deep eyes were calm and sincere, Bai Qingyan turned his head to avoid Xiao Rongyan's gaze, and said: "I have never liked that kind of excitement, I am afraid that I will disappoint Mr. Xiao's kindness."
"It's okay, Miss Bai just came back from Southern Xinjiang, and she didn't rest well from the successive banquets. We... have a long time to come." Xiao Rongyan said.
Bai Qingyan didn't respond, and when she realized that she wanted to return Yuchan to Xiao Rongyan, Xiao Rongyan had already saluted Bai Qing and left.
She carefully looked at the jade cicada in her hand, even the bumped corner of this jade cicada was exactly the same as the one Bai Qingyan had seen in her previous life.
But she couldn't figure it out, since it was her mother's relic, so precious, why did Xiao Rongyan give it to her in the last life?
If it is a symbol of status, even if he gave her a token, it would be more suitable than a jade cicada.
Why?
She held Yuchan tightly, and was called over by Dong Shi without thinking much.
"What's going on between you and that Mr. Xiao?" Dong frowned, "Since the funeral of our Bai family...Mr. Have other thoughts?"
Dong Shi is someone who has been here, especially Xiao Rongyan looked at Bai Qingyan with undisguised eyes, she would naturally be worried.
"Aniang, what's the matter! I've vowed never to marry in this life! Don't worry... I know how to deal with Mr. Xiao." Bai Qingyan took Dong's arm and sent her back to the yard.
Dong's heart ached when she heard her daughter say that she would not marry in this life.
The displeasure in his heart also quietly dissipated, and he even said good things about Xiao Rongyan: "Although that Mr. Xiao is a businessman, he has a good manner and heart, good appearance and talent. A Niang didn't mean to blame you for asking you. If you I also think that Mr. Xiao is good, and considering that you vowed not to marry in this life, you can consider letting Mr. Xiao join the Bai family."
"Aniang, the more you talk, the more chaotic you are!" Bai Qingyan's ears turned red, "What is marriage! There are three things that are unfilial and have no descendants. I have no hope for my heirs. Why bother others? Even if I don't marry in this life, I can do it. Let yourself live a happy life, don't worry, Aniang."
Dong Shi pursed her lips, glared at Bai Qing and said, "Aniang just told you this because she was worried! Your grandmother still orders Chang Yuan to wait for you, and it's because you regard Chang Yuan as your own brother! Is there someone else at the head office? Auntie is afraid that in the future Auntie will be gone..."
When Dong said this, she couldn't help but choked up, and squeezed her daughter's hand hard, holding back her tears: "Mother is afraid that you will be alone!"
"Aniang, I have younger sisters! Our sisters have always had a deep relationship, so don't worry about it!"
The third update is here... Qiuyue ticket, little ancestors, it's already the end of the month! Few days away!
