Chapter 226: Adoption for Life
It was another five-horse corpse, and another three-foot white silk, and Li Pei's face was frightened green. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Without thinking about it, he rolled up his trouser legs and ran down, for fear of losing his life.
Seeing Li Pei's face full of fear, desperately looking for pearl flowers in the water, Lu Qiao couldn't help but sneer: "Miss, it's almost time for lunch, let's go back to eat." ”
Su Feise nodded, and then looked at Li Pei: "Cousin Li Pei, you look for it slowly, the county lord will go back first, and when you find it, let someone send it to Biyun Yuan." ”
Lu Qiao covered his mouth, dragged Su Scarlet and hurried away, for fear that he would not be able to hold back when he was done.
Li Xi followed behind them, looking at Su Scarlet carefully.
This woman who met in the water was using her own strength to protect him, and it felt ......
It was as if something was slowly melting in his heart, and then slowly extended, stretching out far, far away.
"Miss, not long after you and Lu Qiao left, Li Qingyan sent someone to ask you about your dining habits, and the slave maid said according to your instructions, in the future, three meals a day, the kitchen will be sent by people on time, and today's lunch slave maid has been brought into the room. Seeing Su Scarlet coming back, Zhiqin hurriedly stepped forward, and saw Su Scarlet followed by a strange young man, and couldn't help but be curious: "This is ......"
"It's the third young master of the Li family, Li Xi. Su Scarlet introduced while walking inside: "Since lunch has been delivered, Zhiqin, you go and prepare a pair of dishes and chopsticks, the third young master will eat here at noon today." ”
"Huh?" As soon as the words came out, not only Li Xi, but even Zhiqin and Lu Qiao couldn't help but widen their eyes in surprise.
Su Scarlet actually wants to leave an outsider for dinner?
Doesn't she hate people entering her room the most!
Li Xi grew up looking at other people's faces, and with one look, he knew what it meant.
So as soon as he saw the reaction of Zhiqin and Lu Qiao, he knew that it was inconvenient to stay, so he bowed to Su Scarlet: "Li Xi thanks the county lord of Lanling for saving him today, as for staying for dinner......
But before he could refuse, Su Scarlet interrupted softly: "Look at your appearance, you should be younger than me, according to your generation, you should call me a scarlet cousin, since you are a family, you don't have to be polite." ”
Li Xi froze, and the corners of his mouth suddenly hooked up with a touch of ridicule: "Sometimes family members are more terrifying." ”
"Hey, why are you like this, my young lady is kind enough to keep you for dinner, you ......" Zhiqin didn't know why, and it was inevitable that she would be upset for Su Scarlet.
Su Scarlet stretched out her hand to stop her.
Maybe only Su Scarlet and Li Xi themselves understand.
He was able to say these words in front of Su Scarlet, how much courage and trust he mustered.
Otherwise, with a forbearant teenager like him, how could he expose his true emotions in front of others.
"With me, you can rest assured. Su Scarlet didn't have any extra explanation, and in a word, she took Li Xi's hand and walked into the room.
With me, you can rest assured.
Since he came to the Li family, he has been blinded and tortured, and no one has ever said such things to him.
Li Xi only felt a warmth in his heart.
Su Scarlet's three words were like a ray of light, tearing through the darkness and pouring into his life.
Zhiqin quickly brought up the dishes and chopsticks, and Su Feise sat aside and quietly helped Li Xi with the dishes, except for a few words to eat more occasionally, how about this, there was no other word.
And the more calm and silent she was, the more Li Xi couldn't help it, and simply put the dishes and chopsticks down: "Why?"
"What, why?" Su Scarlet put down her chopsticks unexpectedly, waiting for Li Xi's next sentence.
She really wants to win over Li Xi, and she is indeed very optimistic about Li Xi.
But sometimes the more active you are, the more you can't achieve your goal, especially for people like Li Xi who are full of defense.
Since this is the case, then simply don't do anything, and when the other party can't bear it, he will naturally speak.
The effect will be different.
"You watched from a distance for so long, why did you choose to save me in the end?" Li Xi said with his head tilted.
Su Scarlet's brows furrowed slightly: "You know I'm watching you from afar?"
Li Xi hesitated for a moment, but nodded: "I have the habit of observing my surroundings at any time, even if I sleep at night, I will not relax." ”
Hearing this, Su Scarlet couldn't help but feel a pain in her heart: "Even if the Li family treats you badly, you don't have to do this." ”
Li Xi's eyes darkened, and he didn't reply.
"The reason why I didn't save you immediately is because I think you are different from ordinary teenagers, I want to see how you will react, as for why I saved you, you should take it as a way to see the unevenness and draw a knife to help. Su Scarlet smiled and put a chicken leg into Li Xi's bowl.
"But that pearl flower is a gift from the emperor after all, in case Li Pei can't find it, how can you explain it to the emperor?" Li Xi glanced at the chicken legs, his eyes were slightly red, and he asked with some concern.
Su Scarlet raised her eyebrows: "The royal gift, where did the imperial gift come from?"
"Huh?" Li Xi was stunned.
Lu Qiao reacted quickly: "Hahahahaha, it turns out that the pearl flower was not rewarded by the emperor at all, and Li Pei was tricked." ”
"Poof, if Li Pei finds out, he will definitely be angry. Li Xi couldn't help but hook his lips and chuckle.
Seeing Li Xi's real smile for the first time, Su Scarlet couldn't help but be stunned.
Clean and clear, like a new lotus in summer, it makes people feel refreshed.
Pretty!
"Having said that, you don't look like Li Pei, you shouldn't be brothers, right?" Su Scarlet couldn't help but ask.
Li Xi nodded: "Actually, I am not the biological child of the Li family at all, but was adopted by Li Qingyan." ”
"Adoption?" Su frowned suspiciously.
Although the Li family is thin, it is not so much that there is no successor, so why adopt an outsider?
Seeing that Su Scarlet didn't understand, Li Xi continued to explain: "The men of the Li family have suffered a lot, Li Wu and Li Ji died, and Li Yong was sent to the frontier, Li Qingyan suspected that there was a problem with the feng shui of the Li family, so he found a fortune teller master to come back, but the fortune teller master said that Li Pei's life was not good, and he would not live to be twenty-five years old at most, and the only way to crack it was to adopt a child with a hard life to exchange lives with Li Pei, and die for Li Pei at the age of twenty-five, only in this way can Li Pei live." ”
"So you're the kid who swapped lives with Li Pei?" added Su Scarlet.
"Yes, Li Qingyan helped me bury my mother, and the price is that I will become the third young master of the Li family from now on. ”
Before his words fell, Lu Qiao immediately slapped the table: "It's too much, there is such a thing in the world, what is the difference between changing lives and killing!"
"Of course there is a difference. Su Scarlet spoke arrogantly.
Lu Qiao hummed suspiciously: "What's the difference?"
"The difference is that with me, Li Pei will not live to be twenty-five years old at all. Su Scarlet hooked the corners of her lips in an extremely domineering manner, and ruthlessness and bloodlust tossed back and forth in her eyes.
