Chapter 510 Turning Point
Chen Qingmo was recalled by Xia Zhi's actions. Xia Zhi gave an elegant peer-like gift to Peng Xinglan Cha who was walking straight towards them, and then stood up and looked at him, as if reminding him to bow quickly.
In fact, Xia Zhi saw Peng Xing and Lan Cha in a long time. She thought for a long time and felt that she would not bow to them. Wouldn’t it be embarrassing if they saw her? If they bowed, would the street be too eye-catching? After thinking for a long time, she decided to act with the same kindness as her peers. She would not lose etiquette nor feel too strange. Of course, she couldn’t help but say the matter of whether to lose etiquette or not.
Just when the two were thinking differently, Peng Xing had already walked in front of them. She nodded to Xia Zhi and did not reply to her corresponding etiquette. Xia Zhi felt relieved when she saw this. If Peng Xing really replied to her, it would be Xia Zhi's fault. After all, there is a difference in status between Peng Xing and her, which can never be overcome.
Peng Xing did not look at Chen Qingmo beside her, as if there was no one around Xia Zhi. She greeted Xia Zhi very naturally: "I have heard that Xu Yan has sent you out. I have been worried about your safety and thought that someone would check and help you. I didn't expect that our fate is quite deep. I can meet you after I go shopping with Lan Cha. It seems that God wants me to help you."
Peng Xing can get along with anyone as friendly and natural as an old friend who has been familiar with for many years, but such words made Xia Zhi feel uncomfortable inexplicably. She thought to herself that she hadn't made friends with others for many years, so she would feel a little at a loss when encountering such a situation.
She tried her best to show herself a grateful smile and saluted Peng Xing, "Thank you Miss Peng." She thought her smile was perfect enough, but such a smile might have deceived her, but Peng Xing could not have deceived her.
Peng Xing's expression was as generous and natural as when she came. With a glance at her eyes, she saw the figures hidden in the market. When she looked at Xia Xie again, her eyes were filled with a little sincerity: "What are you saying thank you? You grew up in a palace, and there must be many things you don't want to be used to when you first came out. Your Majesty and I are friends with handkerchiefs. Now that you are out, I will naturally take care of you more."
As he said that, Peng Xing naturally hugged Lan Cha's arm beside him, then looked at Xia Zhi, and showed a warm smile to her, "But why don't you introduce the person next to you? I didn't expect that Xia Zhi has such a friend, and he is obviously a dragon and phoenix among people."
When Xia Zhi heard her mention Chen Qingmo next to her, she was a little at a loss for a moment. A large part of the reason why she dared to treat Chen Qingmo was that there were only two of them. She subconsciously felt that Chen Qingmo was worthy of trust and would not blame her. So she would do that to Chen Qingmo. But if there were more words from Peng Xing in front of her, those words and actions that were said in front of Chen Qingmo would never be able to do.
Just when she was embarrassed, she suddenly felt a force on her shoulders. She looked to the side in panic and saw only Chen Qingmo's smooth chin. Xia Zhi should be glad that she did not see Chen Qingmo's expression at this time, otherwise she would probably never dare to joke with Chen Qingmo again in the future.
Chen Qingmo hugged her lazily, looking at Peng Xing with a bit of careless laziness: "Just just want to know who I am, just come and ask me directly. How boring is it?" Peng Xing did not dodge his eyes, but looked back, his eyes were cold, and the tone of her speaking was completely opposite: "Oh? Then what is your relationship with her?"
Peng Xing felt that his acting skills over the years were indeed not in vain, so that when she looked at him so straight, her voice was not trembling, and her expression could be controlled so naturally. Of course, if Lan Cha next to him had less strength to hold her hand, she believed that she could perform more perfectly.
When Chen Qingmo heard her words, his eyes unconsciously slid down on the hands that Peng Xing and Lan Cha were holding tightly. A bitter meaning suddenly surged in his throat, which made his hands holding Xia Zhi tremble. Xia Zhi also obviously felt something was wrong with him. Just when he was about to ask him if he was uncomfortable, he heard his answer: "Don't you think it's a bit rude to ask us what our relationship is? Miss Peng Xing."
When Peng Xing heard the four words "Miss Peng Xing" he said, his heart suddenly felt a little dull, and even the disguise on his face showed flaws. Until she left, he had never said a harsh word to her, let alone this name like a stranger. Well, she thought too much, and she decided to let go, right? Then let each other be strangers.
Peng Xing looked at Chen Qingmo and slowly showed a complimentary smile, just like her standardized smile to everyone: "I have lost my manners and offended the young master. Peng Xing apologized for the young master here." As he said that, he took out a golden leaf from his sleeve and handed it to Chen Qingmo.
Chen Qingmo looked at the special gold leaf in her hand and did not reach out to get it. He knew that if he reached out, she would definitely find that his trembling hands were constantly being found. It was a token made by his business name that he gave her. He made this gold leaf on a whim, with a total of ten pieces, and each person who got it could ask him to help them do something.
Chen Qingmo asked calmly: "What is Miss Peng doing? She is not rewarded without merit." He felt that he was calm enough, if he ignored the faint trembling in his tone.
Peng Xing smiled generously: "I offended the young master just now, so I will give me some care. If the young master has anything to do in the future, I can come to me with this golden leaf, and I will never refuse."
What he said to her once was now spoken through her mouth, and the taste was so bitter. He finally reached out and took the leaf back, but he didn't look at her again. He whispered: "I don't need the help of others, and Miss Peng doesn't have to worry about what she had done just now." As he said that, he threw the golden leaf on the ground.
Peng Xing's eyes flashed across the leaves with a light look, and the words he said no longer had the calmness he had just said: "Young Master Chen is too wasteful." Chen Qingmo smiled at her indifferently: "If Miss Peng feels it is wasteful, pick it up for others."
Peng Xing looked straight at him, his eyes were cold: "I never do anything to bend down to pick up money." Chen Qingmo heard that she regarded the leaves as gold, and had no emotion at all. The look he looked at her was still as casual as before: "Then let it go."
Xia Zhi knew that there must have been a past between the two of them, and they never knew each other as they said. Faced with the deadlock between them, she winked at Lan Cha: Don’t you persuade her? Unexpectedly, Lan Cha tightened and grabbed Peng Xing’s hand, and looked at her with his eyes full of: You should take care of your meaning first.
Xia Zhi was stunned. Under the pressure of the two, he slowly squatted down and picked up the golden leaf. Then he looked at Peng Xing, showing her most sincere smile today and said, "Since that's the case, I will thank Miss Peng. It's the same reason for me and him to accept it. He has a bad temper and doesn't understand what Miss Peng means. I'll accompany you here."
