The curtains were flying, and the blurred figures became increasingly clear.
Zhou Xinqi's eyes were staring at the curtain that was about to be opened unconsciously. The cup in her hand stopped at her lips. Her strong curiosity made her eager to see the person who attracted her with the sound of the piano.
A slender, well-proportioned, and stylish hand gently reached out, but paused for a moment.
Zhou Xinqi, who had never been interested in men, suddenly stopped for a moment.
The curtain was slowly opened, and a face wearing a blue carved mask came into Zhou Xinqi's eyes.
The plain white robes were blowing in the wind, and the sleeves were fluttering as the person approached.
Before he opened his mouth, his thin lips were slightly curved, and his smile was already charming.
Zhou Xinqi put down the tea cup, reached out and grabbed Bo Langjun's mask.
This unexpected action really surprised Bo Langjun. He immediately calmed down and made Zhou Xinqi loosen his grip with just a few words.
"Look at my face, you are my wife!"
"You are being mysterious, you just want to get close to me deliberately! Tell me! What's the matter?" Zhou Xinqi relaxed his hand and put down the teacup.
Mr. Bo did not expect that the woman in front of him, with long eyebrows and temples, was not only outstanding in appearance, but also as scheming as the man.
"My boss has always been wearing a mask. Even I have never seen his true face. It was not intentional." Fang Zijun said bluntly. She was not Bo Langjun's person, but she always helped him just right.
"Yang Zilan has met the little lady!" Bo Langjun reported his pseudonym.
"Zhou Xinqi!" Although Zhou Xinqi still suspected that Bao Langjun had ulterior motives, she did not hate him, but instead developed a strong interest in him.
"I disturbed my wife's pleasure below, so I apologize!" Bao Langjun saluted Zhou Xinqi.
"You are not the only one vying to cling to my Zhou family! I have long been used to it!" Although Zhou Xinqi's words were a bit harsh, it was indeed the case.
"I have no intention of clinging to you! I don't know who the lady is! I just returned to Beijing not long ago and it was just a whim!" Bo Langjun naturally wanted to explain, but he also vaguely felt that this matter would take a lot of trouble.
Oh! He overlooked one aspect, that is, Zhou Xinqi's mind is very incomprehensible.
"Mr. Lang! I'm late!" Luo Jiaojiao's appearance made Zhou Xinqi dispel his doubts. It turned out that she was waiting for his sweetheart and did not approach him intentionally.
"I haven't met Mrs. Zhou yet!" Bo Langjun said with a slight smile. He felt that Luo Jiaojiao was finally of some use.
"Gillian has met Mrs. Zhou!" Luo Jiaojiao saluted.
"You look handsome, I like her very much! Why don't you come back to play with me today?" Zhou Xinqi somehow fell in love with Luo Jiaojiao.
"That's great!" Luo Jiaojiao has never left the tea shop since she came to the capital. She is simply suffocated.
"Cough, cough!" Bo Langjun saw that Luo Jiaojiao had completely forgotten him, so he reminded him.
"Oh! Husband, you won't mind if I go to the Zhou Mansion!" Luo Jiaojiao turned around and put on a pitiful look.
"There is no one in the capital that I can't take with me! Ignore him! Let's go!" Zhou Xinqi pulled Luo Jiaojiao and left.
"Hey!..." Bao Langjun was confused by this sudden reversal of the situation. He could only watch helplessly as Zhou Xinqi took Luo Jiaojiao away.
"First time coming to the Imperial City?" Zhou Xinqi couldn't help but ask when he saw Luo Jiaojiao looking out the window with interest since she got on the carriage.
"Well! It's so lively here!" Luo Jiaojiao was still looking at the dazzling array of high-quality goods and the endless stream of pedestrians in the street market.
"Stop!" Zhou Xinqi's voice made Luo Jiaojiao turn around and look at her.
"I'll take you for a walk!" Zhou Xinqi pulled Luo Jiaojiao's hand out of the carriage.
After getting off the carriage, Luo Jiaojiao quickly ran to the stall next to the market. Zhou Xinqi shook his head and walked behind Luo Jiaojiao, seeing that she was holding two beautiful little faces in her hands and didn't know which one to choose.
"Buy them all!" Zhou Xinqi readily paid the coins.
"Thank you!" Luo Jiaojiao smiled happily at Zhou Xinqi.
All the way to Zhou Mansion, Luo Jiaojiao's hands were filled with all kinds of gadgets.
"We're here!" Zhou Xinqi's words made Luo Jiaojiao look away from her hand.
Ha! What a magnificent mansion.
Luo Jiaojiao looked at the two pairs of stone lions in front of the mansion and the tall mansion gate and sighed.
The two guards in front of the door saw Zhou Xinqi and hurriedly saluted. Zhou Xinqi took Luo Jiaojiao into the mansion.
"My lady is back! Who is this..." Zhou Mansion's housekeeper asked after saluting.
"My friend! Pack up the things she bought and send them to Donglang Tea Art House!"
"Yes!" The butler bowed and saluted.
Luo Jiaojiao stuffed everything in her hands into the butler's hands, making the butler extremely funny. Zhou Xinqi couldn't help laughing when he saw it.
Luo Jiaojiao looked at the housekeeper's hands, which were filled with her carefully selected gadgets, and smiled with a reluctant, yet helpless expression.
Luo Jiaojiao followed Zhou Xinqi to her boudoir. The general's mansion was really different.
As you pass by, you can see the thick purlins of the houses and the solid railings of the bridges, exuding a sense of majesty and strength.
Zhou Xinqi's room is also different from an ordinary boudoir. In addition to a few desks, her living room is lined with bookshelves and sword racks on both sides.
Luo Jiaojiao was also a martial arts practitioner, and she was very happy when she saw the swords on the sword stand. She unconsciously ran to the sword stand and looked at them one by one.
"You know how to play a sword?" Zhou Xinqi was quite surprised.
"Of course!" Luo Jiaojiao picked up a sword with a light shape and a butterfly engraved on the scabbard and couldn't put it down.
"Don't let it go yet!" When Zhou Xinqi's maid Xi heard that her master had brought someone back, she hurriedly brought tea to cook. However, she saw Luo Jiaojiao playing with her master's beloved sword and hurriedly stopped her.
"It doesn't matter! It's rare to find someone with such a similar temperament! Gillian! If you can survive a hundred rounds with my sword, how about I give this sword to you?"
"Are you serious?" Luo Jiaojiao pulled out the sword with a "swish". A flash of bright light flashed, forcing Luo Jiaojiao to narrow her eyes.
"Never break your promise!" Zhou Xinqi's swordsmanship is also the best in the imperial city. When she saw Luo Jiaojiao knew how to sword, she knew that her swordsmanship must be extraordinary.
"Okay! This sword is mine!" Luo Jiaojiao smiled happily!
"Master!" Zi Xi looked at Zhou Xinqi with an unhappy expression.
"It doesn't matter! If she can really beat me, then this sword will have a good home!" Zhou Xinqi is a broad-minded person.
"But you are usually reluctant to use it!" Zixi muttered in a low voice.
Luo Jiaojiao had already walked out of the yard and tried to dance with the sword.
"This sword is called 'Blue Butterfly'! My father picked it up on the battlefield many years ago! Because it is light, it was given to me!" Zhou Xinqi also came to the courtyard.
"Mrs. Zhou, please!" Luo Jiaojiao opened her posture.
"Be careful!" Zhou Xinqi moved the jade girl back and forth, and the tip of the sword was pointed directly at Luo Jiaojiao's throat.
This sword move is fast and sharp, and is a very powerful killing move. Luo Jiaojiao's heart trembled, and she did not dare to underestimate the enemy.
When Zhou Xinqi saw Luo Jiaojiao turning her head to avoid it, she immediately waved her hand and used the sky-filling flower.
This sword technique made Luo Jiaojiao unable to evade, so she could only raise her sword to meet her. Unexpectedly, Zhou Xinqi's strength was astonishing, knocking her back three steps with her sword.
"The sword has no eyes! I don't want you to get hurt, just give up!" Zhou Xinqi persuaded, holding back his sword.
"Our competition has not yet decided the winner! Please take my sword!" Luo Jiaojiao's sword merged into one and stabbed Zhou Xin between the eyebrows.
Zhou Xinqi secretly thought: "What a powerful swordsmanship!" She waited for Luo Jiaojiao's sword attack, raised the sword in her hand, and used the blade of the sword to touch Luo Jiaojiao's sword edge. She was so frightened that she fell down.
On the ground, I almost fainted.
Luo Jiaojiao suddenly lost her strength. Zhou Xinqi's sword suddenly split into two pieces, and her beloved sword was placed across her neck.
"Bold! Take it!"
A group of soldiers surrounded Luo Jiaojiao. The leading guard captain shouted fiercely with his sword.
