“The one just now is… the second lady?” A maid replied. I tightened my sleeves, walked faster, and turned through the hallway. I can feel it. The eyes behind me are like a dense net, gently covering my back. A few days later, he sent a card, saying he wanted to come play chess with me and look at the flowers. But I always avoid him. A few days later, he told his servants that he wanted to visit Miss Tham Uyen, who had a twisted leg. But at this time, the elder sister had already left for Jiangnan. The servants did not dare to say anything clearly, so they could only invite him in. Unexpectedly, Ta Lam chased away the guide lady and came alone outside my courtyard. Right now, I'm sitting under the window arranging flowers. Suddenly I heard rustling noises outside. Through the slightly opened window, I saw him standing behind the old eucalyptus tree. I suddenly remembered my past life. In his previous life, he also liked to secretly look at me like that. In the study room, by the flower garden, even while I was making tea in the hallway. He always silently took three steps back and tilted his head to look at me. Every time he was discovered, he would take out a brooch or jewelry from his sleeve and put it on for me himself. At that time, the relationship between me and him was really good. Like a charming pair of fairies. Now looking at him through the half window, I just feel strange. My face immediately turned cold and I immediately closed the window. On the small window appeared his hesitant silhouette. After a while, the maid poked her head in: "Second lady, the prince has left." At that time, I breathed a sigh of relief. Unexpectedly, three days later, he asked someone to bring him a painting. He drew a begonia tree with its branches hanging down in the hallway, its flower branches tilted and reaching out the window. The woman standing under the window is me. Delicate brushstrokes, elegant lipstick color, just looking at it, you can tell that he has put a lot of effort into it. I snorted coldly and handed the painting scroll to the maid: "Give it back. Let's just say that the prince gave it to the wrong person, the begonia tree is in the eldest sister's yard." The maid took the painting away, and when she returned, her face was full of doubt: "The maid received the painting back, her face immediately turned pale." "The maid saw the person holding the scroll, stood for a long time before turning around and leaving." "Second lady, why do you think the maid feels that you are the master?" already paying attention to you?" I immediately gently reprimanded her. "Such ambiguous words, absolutely do not say them again in the future!" The maid shyly stepped aside. Looking at the frightened little girl, I sighed: "Well, I don't blame you. Ta Lam is the one who is about to marry my sister, how can I get involved with my brother-in-law?" "Seeing that you serve diligently on weekdays, follow me to the street today. I'll buy you some pearls and flowers." As soon as she heard that she was going to the street, the little girl Ngoc Dao immediately appeared happy. Also good. These past few days, because I've been avoiding Ta Lam, I'm about to be depressed to the point of death. It's better to go to the street to relieve your sadness. But unexpectedly, I met another living King of Hell.05 Trieu Kieu appeared without any warning signs. At that time, I was taking Ngoc Dao to choose a fan face on the street. Suddenly an apple fell from the sky, without deflecting at all, hitting my shoulder. I raised my head and there was a face sticking out of the second floor window. The young man has arrogant features, a handsome and generous appearance. But as soon as he saw my face clearly, he immediately panicked and jumped directly from the window. When he landed, he staggered two steps, scratched his head and apologized: "I'm sorry, I'm really sorry! I was just throwing for fun, I didn't look right!" At first I was a bit angry, but looking at his struggling appearance... The hem of his shirt was covered in dust, and there was half an apple peel on his forehead. I suddenly burst out laughing. This person is also quite interesting. Trieu Kieu was stunned by my laughter on the spot. A moment later, his ears turned red and he stammered: "Miss, you smile... your smile is so beautiful." I glanced at him, a little impressed.

The good image I just had immediately disappeared. Although this person has a handsome appearance, is he a scoundrel? Thinking of this, I nodded slightly, pulled Ngoc Dao and left without looking back. A few days later, Ngoc Dao returned from outside, looking strange. "Second Miss, someone is looking for you outside." I was looking at the books, without looking up: "Ta Lam? Deny it, just say I'm not here." Ngoc Dao hesitated again: "It's not Ta The Tu... it's another young master." "He even climbed the wall." I was stunned. Before he could ask, a hand suddenly appeared on the door frame. Just then, a head poked in from outside the window. Half of Trieu Kieu's body hung under the eaves, smiling until his eyebrows curved. In his hand, he held up a package of tar paper. "Second Miss Shen, you should try this dish." I was startled by that situation, put down my pen, frowned: "Whose family's son are you? You dare to climb the wall in here?" "Who is it, quickly kick him out for me!" His face immediately turned pale, he looked sorry, and waved his hand repeatedly: "Don't, don't! I'm here to return the handkerchief to you." Having said that, he took it from his sleeve. out a towel. Truly mine. That's when I remembered, last time on the long street, I pulled Ngoc Dao away too quickly, even dropping my handkerchief. He relied on my name embroidered on the scarf to find me here.
