Chapter 1845 Peerless Beauty (18)

She looks good in anything she wears, but she doesn't know who Gu Yan is going to show her to, so Xia Ling asks Yingchun to find her a veil for her face.

What if Gu Yan doesn't want her to see anyone?

She was well prepared, and when she got into the carriage, she saw Gu Yan in a black robe.

His clothes are mainly black.

Xia Ling is dressed in white, so she put some thought into choosing it, pretending to be a couple.

At first glance, she stood in harmony with him in this body.

Because the dark pattern embroidered on the white dress on her body is somewhat similar to the pattern on Gu Yanxuan's robe, but Xia Ling has softened it to make it more feminine. This is Xia Ling's secret thought .

Thinking of being next to Gu Yan for the first time, Xia Ling tried her best to tidy up herself generously but not conspicuous.

However, Gu Yan looked at her with a subtle expression, as if she had looked at her many times, and it seemed that her trip was a little different today.

Xia Ling calmed down and sat beside him, even if Gu Yan repeatedly scrutinized her, she did not show timidity.

Until he followed Gu Yan to a hidden wing of a restaurant.

Looking at this unfashionable restaurant, it doesn't seem like Gu Yan would come here.

But when Gu Yan entered the wing, Xia Ling followed closely behind him.

The gentle and handsome face of the man in the wing suddenly caught Xia Ling's eyes.

"Xia Ling!" The man smiled and stood up to call.

Before his voice fell, he saw Gu Yan's indifferent and handsome face, all the smiles and tenderness froze on his face.

"Xia Shizi, long time no see." The end of Gu Yan's thin lips curled up slightly, as if it was interesting, but also as indifferent as a cat catching a mouse.

When the war defeat document was signed in the four countries, this Xia Li made a deep impression on him.

At that time, Gu Yan took care of Zhou Guo's weak combat power and gave Xia Li face.

But he didn't expect that the face he gave him became the capital for him to gain a foothold and was widely praised?

"Sho... Lord Gu! Long time no see." Xia Li stiffened, glanced at Xia Ling who was standing behind Gu Yan from the corner of his eye, and saluted Gu Yan calmly.

"Xia Guo's envoy ship is still on the way, Xia Shizi came to Zhou Guo in such a hurry, what is the most important thing?" Gu Yan was still indifferent, the smile faded away, and the sinister power was pressing down on the wing. The people here make people afraid to vent their anger.

Xia Li is a man of the city.

After saluting, he also came back to his senses.

Smile, then look back generously.

"Without him, I just heard that Gu Yan's mansion has a new beautiful concubine, who is very similar to my cousin who passed away for a long time, so I want to meet, and if I can make friends, I will ask this beautiful concubine to help me in Xiaguo. Say a few words, one less year's tribute?"

"Oh? Cousin?" Gu Yan's expression remained unchanged, and he looked at Xia Ling, "I don't know that Xia Ji looks similar to the eldest princess of Xia Kingdom?"

"It's just a delusion. Since the Prince Regent knew about it and brought Xia Ji to the appointment, then this matter is because I lost my head for a while and has nothing to do with Xia Ji. Please don't blame others. I have no personal relationship with Xia Ji. , this matter has nothing to do with Xia Ji."

"Xia Shizi is really personable and considerate." Gu Yan's tone was light.

He took Xia Ling's hand, and in front of Xia Li, rubbed Xia Ling's fair and soft fingers in his palm, looking like he was very fond of him.

"Xia Shizi, Xia Ji is the person on my king's heart. If you don't bother me, I will naturally pamper you. I came to see my son today. I heard that there is a new restaurant in the east of the city. The craftsmanship of Xia Guocai is good. My king I invite the son to taste it, the son will appreciate the face."

Xia Li looked at Xia Ling who was at the side, "The regent speaks, Xia Li dare not refuse."

Xia Ling stood beside Gu Yan.

From Xia Li's eyes, she saw tenderness and comfort.

It seems that Xia Li is a very gentle person, this gentleness and appeasement is not too much, it is just a simple gesture of kindness.

If Xia Ling really still has feelings for Xia Li, then what Xia Li said for her just now and the comforting look in his eyes will make Xia Ling feel nostalgic for Xia Guo and Xia Li in his heart.

Thinking about her last life carefully, didn't it be because she met Xia Li that she put all her hatred on her step-mother and daughter, thought Xia Guo was good, and desperately tried to turn around in the political situation in the capital to seek a chance for Xia Guo?

However, she is a princess of a country.

If there was no acquiescence from Emperor Xia, and Xia Li's acquiescence, how could he have covered the sky with his hands and sent her unconscious to the boat to Zhou?

In Xia Kingdom, she is a princess.

But in Zhou Guo, when she became a member of Shanglefang, she would be a dancer all her life.

This is already an indelible mark on her.

Seeing that she has been favored by Gu Yan, she wants to squeeze and squeeze, to see if she can gain some benefits for Xia Guo?

Xia Ling will not be stupid anymore.

She lowered her eyes, avoiding Xia Li's sight directly, her expression was very cold, and her eyes were also very calm.

Xia Ling could feel that although Gu Yan didn't speak, he was still watching her.

Xia Li was startled again by Xia Ling's reaction.

But he had already cultivated a face that worked smoothly, and he smiled, as if nothing had happened.

But here, Gu Yan didn't seem to see the collision between Xia Li and Xia Ling.

"Let's go, the carriage is ready outside."

He said lightly.

As if forgetting, Gu Yan just held Xia Ling's hand like this, and didn't let go until the restaurant in the east of the city.

Is this a proof of his love for her?

Xia Ling could feel that Xia Li was such a seasoned person, he couldn't help but cast a few extra glances at the hands they were holding.

A man who was rumored to kill people without blinking an eye, who was extremely cruel and cold-blooded, suddenly had a concubine, and would hold hands even when he went out, without shy away from outsiders at all.

Even Xia Li couldn't accept such a change for a while.

However, none of this can stop Xia Li from flattering Gu Yan.

Pushing the cups and changing the cups, Xia Li didn't seem to notice Gu Yan's outrageous actions, he smiled and ate the banquet with Gu Yan in a lively manner.

Gu Yan didn't speak, he was still full of witty words by himself.

This kind of behavior with a lot of flattery, if done by another person, would make people feel disgusting.

Xia Li was born well, and his demeanor carried the calmness of a nobleman. Looking at his sincere and gentle expression, even Xia Ling admired his skill in speaking.

A man who can win face for his country even when he signs the defeat document, can only be proud of himself.

Xia Ling sat aside.

When Xia Li talked to Gu Yan, she served Gu Yan.

Help Gu Yan try the dishes, help Gu Yan refill the wine.

These things that she was used to doing in Gu's mansion, in this restaurant, she did not shy away from Xia Li, and still did it.

Xia Li had complicated thoughts, watching the woman refill the wine with bare hands.

Even though her face was covered by this white veil, Xia Li looked at her and recognized her as the Xia Ling he gave up at the beginning.

Long time no see, Xia Ling has changed a lot...but she is still so beautiful.

Hiding all these emotions in a smile that makes people feel refreshed, Xia Li drank a few more glasses.
