Wishful Things

Judging from the guy's words, the person who came was obviously Wu Shizi.

King Yan has not arrived yet.

After thinking about it, it is indeed impossible for the two of them to come here together.

It should be fortunate that it was not King Yan who arrived first, otherwise, based on the flustered movement of her and Wu Chao just now, I'm afraid they might not have escaped King Yan's ears.

Thinking like this, Xu Mingyi couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief—in fact, she was confident, knowing that she was facing her own elders this time, and no matter what happened, she would not be in danger of her life. If the situation was different, she would not dare to just pull Wu Chao took the risk to hide in this cabinet.

"Where did the son go? How did you offend this white-haired man?"

At the table, Wu Jingming was sitting there slowly plucking the cat fur from his sleeves. Seeing this scene, the clerk couldn't help asking.

"Where else can I go, it's just the cat at home..." Wu Jingming sighed softly.

Before going out, Tianjiao rarely rubbed the corner of his robe.

Faced with this kind of gift that is not easy to get on weekdays, and his wife happened to come back from outside, he couldn't help but appreciate it.

So he hugged Tianjiao.

At that time, I was in a hurry to go out, so I didn't have time to change clothes in the future.

What's more, it's just such a hug, why did it get covered in hair all over the body and sleeves?

Such a trick, it is reasonable to be bald and celestial eyed.

While Wu Shizi was puzzled, he continued to pluck the cat's fur seriously.

Hearing the sigh, Xu Mingyi couldn't help curling the corners of his mouth, and smiled silently, thinking of what Wu Chao had said about the status of his family.

His eyes had roughly adapted to the darkness, and he could vaguely see her smiling, and Wu Chao also smiled.

Realizing that he seemed to be smiling too, Xu Mingyi raised his head subconsciously.

She was originally hiding in front of him, but he lowered her head slightly at this time, and when she raised her head like this, her forehead touched the young man's chin and cool thin lips without warning.

The touch on the forehead is cold.

The boy's breath was clean and warm.

Both of them had a momentary stagnation.

Wu Chao, who didn't dare to move at all, became stiff for a moment, as if he had been given some kind of immobilization technique.

The cabinet is small and silent, everything becomes clear and audible, even because it is trapped in this small space, it is infinitely magnified——

The sound of breathing can be as light as possible, but the sound of pulsating heartbeat is completely uncontrollable. Xu Mingyi can't hide when he hears the sound of thumping close at hand, and even the sound of the boy's Adam's apple rolling.

...What is he thinking?

No, or what is she thinking?

Xu Mingyi clenched his sleeves tightly, trying his best to dispel the atmosphere that was like an invisible net, enough to bind people tightly.

However, she could hear the breathing above her head getting heavier, and even faintly felt a bit hot.

She panicked, fearing that if she went on like this she would be discovered, so she quickly reached out and covered Wu Chao's mouth and nose.

In the darkness, the girl's clear eyes were full of warning, and her warm and cool fingers seemed to have a faint fragrance...

Feeling all this, Wu Chao even found it more and more difficult to calm down.

He moved the girl's hand away with difficulty, turned his head to one side restrainedly, not daring to look into those eyes again.

He also felt that it was shameful for him to be so out of control under such circumstances.

He used to think that the so-called beauty misleading people was just spreading rumors—is there anything in this world that is simpler than self-restraint?

Now it seems...it's really hard.

It would be an easy task for him to fall on top of this, and Xu Ming didn't even need to do anything at all.

Under the situation in his heart, the young man silently recited the formula of pure heart he heard from Mr. Fang.

But still no use.

Then, he thought of those refugees suffering from hunger and cold that he had seen before, with their sallow and emaciated cheeks and pairs of helpless and dull eyes.

Immediately, the boy felt a bucket of cold water being poured down, and most of the people calmed down.

——There are still so many people in Daqing who are suffering and suffering. It is really unreasonable for him to behave like this.

The moment he calmed down, Wu Chao straightened his expression, and slowly pressed Xu Mingyi's arm, as a reminder.

Someone is coming...

Xu Mingyi also faintly heard footsteps.

Sure enough, there was a knock on the door soon.

At the same time, the assistant's lowered voice came into the room: "My lord, the guests have arrived."

"Bring people in."

Wu Jingming stopped picking the cat's fur, flicked his sleeves, and stood up.

The door of the room was opened, and a tall man walked in, wearing a black silk silk robe and a beard.

"My lord." Wu Jingming raised his hands to salute, his loose sleeves drooped: "Long time no see."

If you say you saw it, you must have seen it in the palace.

But for the two of them, it really took too long to meet each other like this.

Yan Wang smiled and cupped his hands: "Ji Ping, long time no see - you are still the same, not much changed."

Hearing this sound was calm, Wu Jingming couldn't help but feel that times have changed and things are different from people.

In the past, when sister was still there, he called the prince who grew up with him as his brother-in-law...

He yelled that brother-in-law very willingly.

Elder Sister chose the person herself. Even though his father once objected to this marriage, he always felt that except for this person, no one else could be worthy of his Elder Sister.

But now, with the current princess and the little princess, the title of brother-in-law is naturally inappropriate.

The two sat down to talk.

"...For these years, I have been doing nothing in this capital, and I have never suffered the hardship that the prince has suffered. Naturally, I am still stagnating."

"This is too self-effacing. The so-called actions are not necessarily for people to see on the bright side."

Listening to the chat between the two, Xu Mingyi remained motionless.

Until King Yan spoke again.

"In the palace today, I saw the grandson of your mansion—"

It turned out that he was outside the city that day, and it wasn't because he was delusional.

It's just that at the birthday banquet tonight, he really didn't dare to take a closer look.

Just like in the past eighteen years, it is not that there is no chance to trust the Wu family and ask him thoroughly, but the more he is willing to believe, the less he dares to do something lightly, lest it will bring disaster to that child.

I'm also afraid... that the delusion will come to nothing, and there will be no support in my heart.

Wu Jingming smiled: "Ah Yuan must have seen the prince too."

"Is it called A Yuan?" King Yan said in a calm tone, with a hint of inexplicable emotion: "He looks so real..."

"Yes, Ah Yuan was born very much like Sister."

Then, there was a brief silence in the room.

But this silence made Xu Mingyi truly feel that the truth was approaching step by step, and was waiting to remove the last layer of tulle to reveal the whole appearance.

Wu Chao also waited quietly, the hand propped by his side slowly clenched into a fist at some point.
