Chapter 500 - Pampered 6
Chu Si’s eyes drooped slightly, but after all, he didn’t say anything.
The sky slowly brightened, and there were more people walking on the street, but most of them were women, and few men were outside.
Luo Ci glanced around, thinking that it is probably because the men of Chu country are not easy to show their faces and have few opportunities to go out, so they are all fair-faced and lack masculinity, and women need to be involved in various affairs. getting rougher.
The difference is indeed justified…
But it’s normal in Los Angeles.
There was an endless stream of pedestrians, and the hawkers shouted one after another. Luo Ci came to a stall selling knick-knacks, squatted down slightly, and selected inside.
Chu Si found that she seemed to like small things very much, and even the purse was extraordinarily small. She chose several pieces in a row, paid for it, and put it in the small purse.
Probably because she had been squatting for a long time, she was a little dizzy when she got up, and her body swayed slightly. Chu Si subconsciously supported her.
The two were very close, she turned her head slightly, and her slender lips brushed his profile across the curtain.
The veil on the curtain was very soft, so Chu Si intuitively felt the soft, somewhat warm touch, his heart trembled violently uncontrollably, and he fell for half a beat.
He let go of his hand subconsciously and took a half step back.
The tips of his ears slowly turned red.
After Luo Ci stood firm, she saw that the fragment looked a little helpless, she thought about it, and got closer, her voice was soft, her tail was slightly raised, a little lazy and cute, half-joking and half-serious, “I can be responsible. “
Chu Si pursed his lips, and his voice was much lighter, “No need.”
How to be responsible?
To be her concubine?
“Okay.” Luo Ci muttered softly, without continuing the topic, turned and walked towards the other booths.
It’s just that this time he didn’t pull his sleeve anymore.
Her tone didn’t sound very real, inexplicably a bit soft, without any strong meaning, and she didn’t have a cold face and angry, it seemed… lost.
He lowered his eyelids, looked at his sleeves, and looked at her figure walking forward alone through the curtain. He didn’t deliberately speed up his pace, obviously he didn’t want to leave him out of frustration.
Just stop pulling his sleeves.
Because men and women are different, there is no relationship between them, it is impossible to walk hand in hand, pulling the sleeves is the only intimacy action.
Only the only intimacy action is gone.
He knew that his attitude just now was too cold.
Chu Si silently followed.
Luo Ci was actually not angry. She faintly realized that Fragment was resistant to marriage and his wife. She didn’t know what Fragment had gone through, so she couldn’t understand the pain in his inner world.
She thought helplessly, she had to take it slow.
She stopped at a stall selling wool materials. Generally, the items on the stall are relatively cheap. This stall is much more expensive. After all, it is the wool of jade, which is similar to gambling stones. Maybe the jade of good quality is picked from it. .
Luo Ci thought about it and decided to buy a few pieces. She just wanted to buy it back to sculpt and practice her hands, not to gamble on stones.
Just as she was about to point to two pieces, Chu Si whispered to her, “Buy these two pieces.” He raised his finger and pointed.
He didn’t know why she was interested in these things, but when he thought of her tone of voice that had softened and slightly lost, and her actions of keeping a distance from him subconsciously, he became flustered and irritated for no apparent reason.
Maybe it was the thought that choosing the wool for her would make her happier, or maybe it was something else.
Luo Ci blinked, complied, and chose the two pieces, “Help me pack these two pieces.”
The stall owner looked at the jade she pointed to for a while, and neatly packed it and handed it to her, “It’s five taels of silver in total.”
These two pieces of wool are of moderate size, and only a little green is exposed. That green may or may not come out of jade. If the price is out of jade, it will be paid back. Say, it’s not a lot of money.
Just now, the stall owner was just looking to see if the wool material she chose would be a hidden treasure. If there was a treasure, the stall owner’s expression would not be as calm as it is now.
Of course, this is only the judgment of the stall owner.
Luo Ci paid the money quickly, and when she was about to take the box, Chu Si stretched out her fair and slender hand and took it slowly, “I’ll come.”
She was startled, “Oh.”
Why do you feel a bit of a sense of sight that a modern shopping boyfriend takes the initiative to carry a bag?
“Want to go to the tea house to sit and rest?”
It seemed like two hours had passed since she left the palace, and she was a little tired.
Chu Si nodded slightly, “Okay.”
There were not many people in this restaurant, and it was still very deserted. Luo Ci ordered a pot of tea and a plate of snacks, and sat at the table of the Eight Immortals, keeping some distance from the fragments.
It’s not a father-wife relationship after all, getting too close will cause people to gossip, and the fragments probably won’t fit in.
They were on the second floor by the window, and they could easily see the scene on the street outside the window. While waiting for the tea, Luo Ci looked out the window, a little lost.
Chu Si gently placed the box containing the wool on the table. It was just an ordinary wooden box and had not been carefully carved.
The previous soy milk had already been drunk, but there was still a meat bun wrapped in a handkerchief in the pocket inside his sleeve. It was already cold, but he didn’t deal with it.
Looking at her with light-colored clear eyes, “These two pieces of wool should be able to produce good jade. You can ask a skilled master to help you cut them.”
Luo Ci was stunned, she didn’t want to gamble on stones…
She said lazily, “I just wanted to choose two pieces at random, I didn’t expect jade to come out of them.”
She didn’t say everything, but Chu Si quickly understood that she didn’t want to gamble on luck.
She paused, then said, “And this kind of thing should be chosen based on her own feelings, so that you will feel happy.”
If someone tells her which piece is there, it loses the fun.
Chu Si responded lightly, “Sorry.”
She was a little restrained before, unable to speak, unable to start the topic.
But now, it was him who was so prudent that he didn’t know what to say.
After he said sorry, he found it inappropriate, because the other party didn’t care, he was too cautious.
So no one spoke again after that.
Chu Si felt a sense of depression for no reason.
For the first time he felt so lacking and clumsy in language.
He didn’t even understand why his emotions started to get out of control.
The emotions were foreign and overwhelming to him.
It was not until the second shopkeeper served tea that he calmed down a little, and he took the initiative to pour tea for her, just like when they first met.
The tea is very light, the dim sum has a hint of plum fragrance, it is cold and cold, not too sweet, but just right.
After eating half a snack, she suddenly asked, “Do you want to go back to the palace?”
Chu Si’s fingers paused slightly, and the slender feathered eyelashes trembled slightly.
Did she suddenly lose interest in him and didn’t want to be with him anymore, did she want to send him back?
It’s just an hour or two of effort, and it’s only one day.
