Remember cotton candy for you in one second.

  Zhang Qi was shocked, she opened her mouth to shout, but a large hand covered her mouth, and a low voice came, "Its me."

  Its Xiao Mos voice!

  Zhang Qi was stunned, she turned her head to look. At this time, Xiao Mo had already pulled her into the woods, seeing her looking foolishly at him, he said lightly: "Follow me."

  Having said that, he swung his sleeve and led the way along the weeping willows towards a corridor in the river.

  Zhang Qi hurriedly took a few steps forward and asked in a low voice: "Where is this going?"

  Xiao Mo turned his head back.

  He stared at Zhang Qi for a long time before slowly saying: "Go and resolve the trouble youve caused."

  What trouble did she stir up?

  Zhang Qis face changed, and he thought to himself: The Prince of Guangling, this must be the person he brought to meet the Prince of Guangling. Thats right, he randomly found a beautiful woman to impersonate his wife and gave her to the Prince of Guangling. If this matter isnt exposed, its fine, but if it is exposed, it would be a slap in the face for the Prince of Guangling! Its a kind of humiliation.

  So he took himself to see the King of Guangling, wanting to show in front of him that he was his man. At the same time, it was also an explanation to the King of Guangling that his behavior was emotionally justified.

  As the external envoy of Prince Guangling, and with his generous personality, Xiao Mos actions should be able to dispel Prince Guanglings discontent.

  Two people walked into the corridor, at the end of the corridor was a pavilion, and the pavilion stood alone in the middle of the flowing river. Next to the pavilion was a similarly isolated painting boat.

  The boat is not big, the rope is tied on the pavilion, and its drifting with the wind.

  Xiao Mo arrived at the pavilion and directly boarded the painted boat. No one reached out to help him, and he simply made his way into the cabin on his own.

  Zhang Qi hurriedly followed up.

  This painting boat, with only two cabins, Xiao Mo pushed open the first cabin and walked in. The cabin was decorated exceptionally beautifully. Zhang Qi saw a black-clad, long-haired young man holding a wine ladle, gazing quietly through the porthole at the distant green hills stretching far away.

  He seemed unaware that Xiao Mo and Zhang Qi had already entered.

  The young mans figure was still slender, but his straight waist and fluttering black hair had a strange charm under the reflection of the floating sunlight.

  It wasnt until much later that Zhang Gui finally understood, this charm was called "unparalleled elegance"!

  Only those who are extraordinary by nature, with a demeanor that surpasses that of ordinary people, and whose elegance is rarely seen in this mundane world, possess such charm.

  It was just a figure in the distance, but at this moment, whether it was Xiao Mo or Zhang Qi, they were both taken aback and intimidated, and involuntarily fell silent, quietly waiting there.

  At this moment, even the confident and proud young master Xiao Mo couldnt help but think: How could someone like him care about a little girl like A Qie? But I was wrong.

  A long silence.

  It was a long time later, but it was Zhang Gui who spoke first. She called out softly and quietly: "Prince Guangling."

  This cry awakened Xiao Mo.

  Xiao Mo Qing coughed and said: "Gao brother, Ive brought Zhang Shis A Qiu over."

  Listening to his own dry tone, Xiao Mos eyebrows furrowed: How could just a silhouette make me lose my composure?

  The King of Guangling did not turn his head back.

  He was still gazing at the green hills and clear waters outside. Just as Xiao Mo couldnt wait any longer and was about to say something, a low, clear, and melodious voice that was pleasant to the ear came over, "Zhang Shi Aqi."

  "Yes."

  The King of Guanglings voice was as clear and smooth as flowing water, "You say that the green mountains are lush and the green waters are serene, such a beautiful scene, is it like a beauty?"

  Zhang Qi heard loneliness from his words.

  Her long eyelashes fluttered, and after a while, she said softly: "No... the green hills will last forever, but beautiful women are just a joke."

  Its just a joke. When young, one has to put in several times more effort than ordinary people to gain recognition from the world. In old age... There is no old age for her and him; they never had an old age.

  Since ancient times, beautiful women are like famous generals, not allowed to be seen with white hair in the mortal world!

  Beauty is doomed to an early death!

  "A joke?" Prince Guangling smiled slightly. Meanwhile, Xiao Mo, who was standing beside him, saw that he was talking to Zhang Qi on his own, and when Zhang Qi responded, her words were elegant and refined, with a certain unspoken meaning.

  These two people seem to have a secret that only they know... Xiao Mo turned his head to look at Zhang Qi.

  Zhang Qi still quietly lowered her head, looking like a young and inexperienced little girl, it seems that she is not as simple as she appears to be!

  At this time, Prince Guangling slowly turned his head around.

  Suddenly, Xiao Mo felt a surge of light in the cabin, which dazzled his eyes.

  He tilted his head slightly.

  Zhang Yi didnt, she stared fixedly at Guangling King, who had finally removed his veil and revealed his true face.

  Even her eyes were as calm and clear as when they first met.

  Zhang Gui suddenly remembered the purpose of his trip after staring at Prince Guangling for a while.

  She hastily lowered her head and put on a timid appearance.

  But whats with this attitude now? The Prince of Guangling curled up the corner of his mouth and smiled.

  His smile was already dazzling, and this one was even more radiant, like the sun shining brightly.

  At this time, Xiao Mos voice came from one side, "A Qi, fill up the wine for me and Prince Guangling."

  The tone is calm and composed, this is a mans command to his own woman, a masters command to his own concubine.

  Zhang Qi raised her head.

  She looked at Xiao Mo. At this moment, Xiao Mo was still staring at Prince Guangling and hadnt noticed her.

  Zhang Qi thought that if she listened, it would be equivalent to acquiescing to Xiao Mo, and acquiescing to being his person.

  If she doesnt obey, it would also be a direct refusal of Xiao Mo and an acknowledgment of Prince Guangling.

  At this moment, she was in a dilemma.

  After a moment of contemplation, she smiled and reached into her bosom to pull out the oilcloth package. She gently placed it beside Xiao Mos knees and said in a soft voice: "A gift from Xiao Lang, Im ashamed to accept."

  She lowered her head and didnt even glance at Xiao Mo, pouring wine and lighting the stove on her own.

  Before long, she came with a wine jug. Still without looking at Xiao Mo, Zhang Qi poured wine for the two of them, and in the gurgling sound of the wine, Zhang Qi said softly: "Ive always liked a line from Bao Zhaos Imitation of a Travelers Lament in the Song Dynasty: Id rather be a pair of mandarin ducks in the wild than a solitary crane between the clouds."

  Soft and crisp, tenderly reciting "Rather be a pair of mandarin ducks in the wild, than a lone crane between clouds." Zhang Qi closed her mouth tightly, slowly poured wine into the jug, and retreated backwards.

  She retreated behind Xiao Mo, like a maid, with her hands clasped in front of her abdomen and her eyebrows lowered.

  She clearly expressed her own meaning.

  She said she yearned for that beautiful, paired love, and would rather give up a life of wealth and glory to find someone who understood her.

  This sentence is very elegant and very sour.

  Of course, this is not the point. The key is that Xiao Mo is proud, and Guangling King is even prouder.

  Such men would certainly disdain to entangle themselves further after hearing the aspirations of this unassuming young woman.

  I was just slightly interested anyway. There are so many beautiful girls in this world, whats the big deal? If she doesnt want to, then forget it.

  The cabin fell silent.

  After a while, Xiao Mo Ha ha smiled and said: "Good one Rather be a pair of mandarin ducks in the wild, than a lone crane in the clouds. I really didnt expect that Ah Gui still had such ambitions." His tone carried a hint of mockery.

  Zhang Qi pursed her lips and lowered her head, without responding.

  The King of Guangling did not smile.

  He quietly glanced at Zhang Qi and then picked up the wine she had poured for him and drank it all in one gulp.

  Zhang Qi continued to lower her head.

  She slowly backed away.

  Before long, she came out of the painting boat and jumped onto the pavilion.

  This time I took a maternity leave for two or three months, and I always felt very lonely. I was thinking, since I just gave birth to my son, shouldnt my family be happy and complete? Why do I still feel empty, as if something is missing?

  Until I opened this book.

  Watching a personal object born from ones own pen, inexplicably, I feel a kind of joy. This joy, even surpasses everything.

  I think I really like writing.
