Chapter 545 One-Night Stand

"You know, I've never been a meddlesome person, but looking at the two of you these past few years, I really don't quite understand. Do you like Cousin Zhao?"

Xia Meng raised her eyebrows. No one had ever asked her this before.

"Why did you ask so?"

"In the early spring of this year, I originally planned to give you spring clothes, but I saw cousin Zhao standing at your door, as if he wanted to knock on the door. Seeing that I was there, he left in a hurry, and there he was. After that, I saw that the two of you have been avoiding each other. If you can't meet, you will definitely not meet. Even if you do meet, you rarely talk, so I asked this. "

Xia Meng was a little embarrassed. She never knew what to say about Chuchun.

But she is not the kind of person who hides things. Since Du Jingyi asked, she spoke frankly, so she said with a calm expression.

"One time, he got a jar of good wine. I happened to be passing by and I thought about trying it. As a result, I drank too much. When I woke up, I found that we had fallen asleep. He told me several times that he wanted to try it. Responsible, but I...but I don't think it's a big deal, and I don't want to be tied to him for the rest of my life."

Du Jingyi was shocked and didn't know how to continue this topic.

Falling asleep is not a big deal. I don't want to. Du Jingyi can't take it no matter what he says.

Although the folk customs in Daxing Dynasty were open and women could reconcile and divorce, it was always inappropriate to be together without being married. Moreover, the two of them acted as if nothing had happened afterwards, and they really didn't know what to say.

"scared?"

Xia Meng's expression was very relaxed when she said this, not at all like Du Jingyi's, and her calmness also made Du Jingyi a little worried. Could it be that she was stimulated and her brain was damaged?

So, he said quickly.

"Cousin Zhao is a good person. Although he is a bit older, he is very reliable. My aunt's family are also kind people. If you are together, she will be very happy to know that she will go north immediately. I’m planning a happy event for you two.”

"A happy event? Where does happiness come from? We both have no relationship foundation, so we want to get married just because of such a thing?"

Xia Meng shook his head, his expression full of calmness.

"I'm not a woman like you here, and I don't value these things, so since it's a misunderstanding, let it go. We're pretty good like this now."

"Really? But you were quite surprised just now when you found out that cousin Zhao was leaving."

"What surprises me is not that he is leaving, but that he is going to join the army. I have never seen or participated in the days in the military camp, but I know that you will have to endure a lot of hardships. I am surprised that a noble man like him wants to go. is this.

Du Jingyi was shocked, it turned out that he had misunderstood, he sighed and said.

"Actually, when you two came here together, I thought it would be great if you could be together. Later, I saw that you two were as calm as relatives, so I didn't think about it in this aspect. But there is one thing. Although you are like this "But have you ever heard what cousin Zhao thinks? Hasn't he always said he is responsible? Could it be that he actually cares about you?"

Du Jingyi's words made Xia Meng fall into silence.

She had always felt that his so-called responsibility was just because the two had a close relationship, but she never thought about it. After being reminded like this, Xia Meng had another perspective.

Seeing that she didn't speak, Du Jingyi hurriedly continued to express his position.

"Right, I'm afraid you two haven't had a serious talk since this happened. You think you don't want him to take responsibility for the sake of responsibility, but he might also think that you dislike him because of this, so you go back and forth. There is a estrangement between you, and it is not impossible for Cousin Zhao to become discouraged and want to fight in the military camp. "

"Really? You mean he joined the army because of me?"

"It's not impossible."

Xia Meng frowned, obviously hearing this, but Du Jingyi saw her reaction and didn't say anything more. He just stayed with her quietly and let her figure it out on her own.

Fortunately, Xia Meng spoke up not long after.

She didn't have a coy temper to begin with, so since there was such a possibility, she didn't have to guess and just asked directly.

"Where's Xing Zhao? Let me go and make it clear to him. If he really wants to join the army because of me, it's not necessary."

Seeing that the two of them finally had a chance to have a good talk, Du Jingyi felt happy in his heart, but he still had to calm down on his face, so he said calmly.

"It should be in his own yard. He said he would leave in two days. He is probably packing his luggage now."

"Well, then I'll go over and have a look, but if he's not there, please find someone to tell him. I have something to talk to him about."

"Okay, okay, I will definitely bring it!"

If you talk about it, it means there is still a chance.

Du Jingyi thought it was very good, so he took one bite.

Seeing this, Xia Meng stood up and said goodbye, running to the yard where Xing Zhao was. Unfortunately, Xing Zhao was not there. Instead, he saw Butler He and several servants coming in and out to pack things.

Seeing this scene, Xia Meng realized that Xing Zhao was really leaving.

How can I put it, she doesn't have any attachment to her, but she still has some feelings for the kittens and puppies when they see her every day, let alone such a big living person.

She was in a low mood, and when Butler He turned around, he happened to meet her, so he went up to her and asked.

"Why did Miss Xia come here? Is there something you want to see your cousin?"

"Well, where is he?"

"He went out, but he didn't say when he would be back. Are you anxious?"

"Not in a hurry. If he comes back, just tell him that I have something to say. Just ask him to come to my yard."

Butler He nodded and agreed.

Seeing that he was not there, Xia Meng went back. She wanted to continue reading, but she couldn't read after flipping through a few pages, so she just went to sleep.

When she woke up, it was already evening.

She stretched her body and was stretching her muscles when she heard a noise outside.

"Are you awake?"

The voice was Xing Zhao's. Xia Meng was stunned for a moment, then asked.

"When did you come?"

"I've been here for about 25 minutes. My cousin's wife and housekeeper He told me that you had something to see me, so I came here."

When Xing Zhao said this, he looked calm, but if you look closely, the corners of his mouth were still trembling slightly.

A few months have passed, and he still feels a little uncomfortable when facing Xia Meng. (End of this chapter)
