After speaking, Tang Huaixiao regretted it. She might not be able to see Shi Jiu in the future. She shouldn’t be so cold to him.
However, since she had already said it, there was no turning back.
Shi Jiu smiled. “Huaixiao, I don’t have much time left. Can you spend time with me in the next two days? I want to tell you my story.”
Tang Huaixiao looked at Shi Jiu. “What’s your story?”
Shi Jiu smiled sadly. “Huaixiao, don’t reject me.”
Looking at Shi Jiu, who was smiling sadly, Tang Huaixiao was a little annoyed with herself. She shouldn’t have hurt him like this. She lowered her eyes. “Okay.”
After Tang Huaixiao agreed, she felt a little nervous because she did not know what kind of request Shi Jiu would make and what kind of story he would tell her.
She wanted to know, but she didn’t want to, either.
Shi Jiu did not give her a chance to think. He held her hand and said, “Today, we’re going shopping.”
He did not have much time left. He wanted to let those who had mocked Huaixiao know that he really loved her.
Although they had not known each other for long, Shi Jiu knew that Tang Huaixiao would not fall in love easily. Her heart was gradually melted by him. If he could live for the rest of his life, Tang Huaixiao would willingly be his woman.
He did not have that long. He wanted Tang Huaixiao to understand his heart and also selfishly wanted to have a place for himself in her heart.
Shi Jiu held Tang Huaixiao’s hand and left the Dizang Manor. Tang Huaixiao felt a little uncomfortable. Usually, when she went out, she would ride a horse. She could quickly pass through the street, but now, when she was held by someone, she was bound to attract attention.
Tang Huaixiao was expressionless. She wanted to retract her hand a few times, but Shi Jiu held it tightly. Every time she had the intention to pull her hand away, he would hold it even tighter. However, his expression did not change at all. He said gently, “Let’s go and find a place to eat first.”
Tang Huaixiao cleared her throat and said dryly, “There’s no need. Just get the kitchen to cook whatever you want to eat.”
When she was outside, she wore a mask and was taller than most men. When she walked on the street, people would know who she was. Tang Huaixiao felt suffocated just thinking about it.
Shi Jiu grabbed Tang Huaixiao’s hand and interlocked his fingers with hers. “Huaixiao, you said that you would listen to me these two days.”
Tang Huaixiao was speechless. She regretted agreeing to his request so impulsively.
As they walked on the street, Tang Huaixiao’s expression was cold. When curious people looked over, they would quickly lower their heads to avoid her murderous gaze.
Shi Jiu smiled and turned a blind eye to all of this. He looked at Tang Huaixiao gently and said, “Huaixiao, let’s go over there to eat noodles.”
Tang Huaixiao nodded coldly. “Ok.”
Shi Jiu held her hand and walked towards the noodle shop. When they arrived, he turned his head and asked. “Huaixiao, what do you want to eat? I think the main dish here is sliced beef. Do you want it?”
The shop owner was dumbfounded. He thought that he was hallucinating.
Not only the shop owner, but the pedestrians were also stunned and shocked. From time to time, they would glance over.
Tang Huaixiao frowned slightly. “I am ok with it.”
She did not like being stared at by so many people. She did not want to eat anything and just wanted to go back quickly.
These commoners were all ordinary people. They were curious about her. They would surround her and watch her like she was a little monster. Some bad memories appeared in Tang Huaixiao’s mind and she felt very uncomfortable.
When she was nervous, her palms would sweat. Even though she was still expressionless, her body already had a reaction.
Shi Jiu held her hand and walked into the shop. Seeing that there was a private room inside, he brought Tang Huaixiao into it. He asked her to sit down and said gently, “Huaixiao, I’ll go out to order. Wait for me here.”
Tang Huaixiao was in a terrible mood. She said sullenly, “Whatever.”
Shi Jiu went out.
Tang Huaixiao could hear some muffled voices outside. She clenched her fists and her face was a little pale.
When she was young, she lost her mask once while out on the street. She watched as countless people gathered around her. They looked as if they had discovered something new. They kept approaching her and pointing at her. Some people even reached out to pinch her face, wanting to see if her face would show a different expression.
No one was born with a hard heart.
It was because she had been hurt a lot that she had turned her heart into a stone to protect herself.
Tang Huaixiao couldn’t remember how long it had been since she went out on the street.
“Huaixiao, Huaixiao.”
Shi Jiu called out a few times before Tang Huaixiao came back to her senses. Seeing that Shi Jiu had returned at some point, she asked calmly. “When will the dishes be served?”
She just wanted to eat quickly and go back.
Shi Jiu was holding a plate of sliced beef. His eyes were filled with smiles as he said, “Huaixiao, the boss said that this plate of beef is on him. He said that he respects you very much and that the Tang family is a family of heroes. You’re even the cream of the crop among women.”
Tang Huaixiao looked at him. She felt that Shi Jiu’s lying skills were too bad.
Shi Jiu put down the plate. “The boss has good taste. How many men can compare to you? It is because of you that I’m also respected by them.”
Tang Huaixiao had mixed feelings. She glanced at Shi Jiu inadvertently and saw that he was serious. She couldn’t help but wonder if she was that outstanding.
After Shi Jiu sat down, he continued. “Jiufang City is located at the border of the three countries. Only with the protection of the Tang family can it be peaceful. You and your family are now in charge of the city. When people talk about you, they have high regard for you.”
Tang Huaixiao pursed her lips. “It’s not that exaggerated. We’ve lived here for generations and are just doing what we can to maintain the peace.”
For some reason, her bad mood improved bit by bit.
Shi Jiu looked at Tang Huaixiao and handed her the chopsticks. He said gently, “Huaixiao, try this beef and see if it’s delicious. The boss said that the beef in the noodle shop is superb. Try it.”
Tang Huaixiao picked up the chopsticks and picked up a piece of beef to eat. She had eaten a lot of delicious food. The chefs at the Dizang Manor were also specially invited from all over the country.
Although she was born here and was familiar with every street in Jiufang City, she had never sat down in a restaurant to eat like this.
The beef was soft and the gravy was rich, hot, and fragrant.
Shi Jiu smiled and picked up a piece. “Looks like it’s delicious..”
