Chapter 1025: I Don't Need to Explain to You!
cpa300_4(); I chuckled in my heart, and before I could open my mouth to stop it, Li'er had already said with a smile: "Of course, I want to marry the third uncle!"
Pei Yuanhao stood behind her, and when he heard this, his whole body trembled slightly.
β¦β¦
For a moment, the entire waterfront fell silent.
My face turned a little pale, and I scolded, "Li'er!"
She glanced at me, and seemed to remember what I said, she has grown up, girls need to know shame, and they can't say these **** things between men and women, so she hurriedly lowered her head and quietly stuck out her tongue.
But, it's too late.
A trace of disbelief flashed on Pei Yuanhao's face, and immediately, his face sank.
He didn't get angry immediately, but after taking a deep breath, he said to Li'er gently: "The third uncle you are talking about, is it Liu Qinghan?"
My heart was tense, but it would be in vain to stop it at this time, Li'er raised his head to look at him, and nodded lightly: "Uh-huh." β
Pei Yuanhao looked at her with a smile: "How can you like him?"
Li'er didn't want to answer this anymore, after all, seeing that my face next to me was not good-looking, but she seemed to be unable to help it, and said softly: "He makes me like it." β
ββ¦β¦β
This time, the smile on Pei Yuanhao's face couldn't hold it anymore.
Although the atmosphere was stiff, the attendants around him immediately stepped forward, and served him tea and snacks, seeing that we were all a little hot, and placed an ice tray far away on the table, a burst of coolness blew on his face with the breeze, although he felt better, but the torment in his heart did not dissipate at all.
Pei Yuanhao sat on a chair far from me and didn't say a word.
He rarely had such gentleness and kindness as today, and even smiled a lot, and once he was indifferent, there was a chill like a harsh winter seeping out of his limbs and five bodies, giving people a strong sense of oppression and suffocation, at this moment, I clearly felt his suppressed anger and anger.
It makes people breathless.
But Li'er didn't know at all, but because he slept late last night, he got up early this morning, and after crossing the river, he was playing here and there, and he was already tired.
I gently took her in my arms and let her head rest on my shoulder.
Those guards and attendants had already pushed away, and as soon as Pei Yuanhao sat down, Gu Ping also retreated a little farther away, and there were only three of us left in this water pavilion, Li'er quietly leaned on my arms, sleeping softly and snoring, while Pei Yuanhao sat next to him, picked up the teacup, and drank the tea one by one.
In the middle of the night, he suddenly broke the silence.
"You already knew?"
My heart tightened, and I looked up at him.
He didn't look at me, but the clear lines of his side face showed a bit of rigidity, and his face was cold: "You already know Li'er's thoughts?"
I was silent for a moment and nodded, "Hmm." β
"Why didn't you stop her?"
"How to stop it?" I lowered my head and gently brushed away a few strands of wind-blown hair on Li'er's face: "This is just a child's joke, and even she probably didn't take it seriously." β
"Joking? β
As he spoke, he slowly turned his head, and his eyes seemed to be quenched: "If it's a joke, then why don't other people want to think about that person? β
I felt a thorn in my heart, and I also looked up at him: "You, what do you mean?"
"What do you mean, you don't understand?"
For a moment, the atmosphere became tense.
In an instant, the warmth in his eyes faded, and the anger rose up, and the fierce gaze stared at me tightly, as if a pair of black hands were about to reach out from his eyes and choke my throat.
"You think it's me. β
"Isn't it?"
ββ¦β¦β
For a while, I had the urge to sneer, and I wanted to throw everything I had experienced over the years, including everything we said and did on a desert island, but when the words came to my mouth, I suddenly didn't want to say it again, after all, there was no relationship between me and him, except for the daughter in my arms, and I really didn't have to explain anything to him or argue anything.
Taking a deep breath, I said lightly, "I just want to tell you that you are wrong." β
ββ¦β¦β
"I don't need to explain anything else. β
His gaze sank.
I continued: "As for Li'er, she is also my daughter, and I hope more than anyone else that she can marry a man who is in love, who is devoted to her, and who can grow old with her, instead of going to work hard and spend her life hard. Now I'm just praying for this one, and the restβ"
I looked into his dark eyes and said word by word, "I don't care." β
After saying this, I lowered my head, gently wiped away the sweat from the tip of Li'er's nose, and gently fanned her with my hand.
The intimidating anger on the man opposite faded little by little at this time.
I could almost feel his tight heartbeat and breathing slowly softening as my hand swayed slightly.
The rest of the day, we didn't speak again.
But the weather became more and more stuffy, the wind stopped, I fanned the cool breeze in my arms, I also felt a burst of heat, sweat from the sideburns and nose, sticky and greasy, feeling very uncomfortable.
At this moment, a gust of wind blew.
I suddenly felt a chill and felt a lot more refreshed.
As soon as I looked up, I saw Pei Yuanhao sitting next to me, holding a folding fan in one hand, gently fanning me.
Sensing that I was looking at him, he also raised his head, there was no smile on his face, but the clear tenderness in his eyes was clear, I only glanced at it, and then lowered his head faintly, avoiding his gaze.
The two of them sat quietly like this, one holding the child and fanning the cool breeze, and the other holding a folding fan, also gently fanning the cool breeze.
Time passes little by little.
The air was getting more and more stuffy, and it was getting hotter and hotter, and although he was fanning the wind, it was a little uncomfortable, and Li'er rolled uncomfortably in my arms, and finally woke up with a mutter.
Opening those watery and confused eyes, she looked at me: "Mother......"
I smiled and reached out and tapped her nose: "Woke up?"
"Hmm. β
"When you wake up, get up. β
I patted her ass gently, she was tired of it in my arms for a while before slowly sitting up, and as soon as I turned my head, I saw Pei Yuanhao holding a folding fan in his hand, looking at her with a smile, and suddenly, the little face that was red from sleep turned a little redder, reached out and scratched her hair, and muttered, "Why did I fall asleep?"
Pei Yuanhao couldn't help laughing.
As soon as he laughed like this, Li'er hurriedly reached out to cover his face, and even the tips of his ears turned red.
She was tired of being in my arms for a while before she got up, and the attendants around her saw it, and hurriedly came forward to offer her tea and cups for gargling, and she rinsed and wiped her face and hands a little. When she came to her senses, Pei Yuanhao asked her with a smile, "Where does Li'er want to go next?"
"Where do you want to go?"
"Well, I arranged it before, and now you decide. Where do you want to go?"
"Where do I want to go......"
Li'er put her finger against her chin and thought about it seriously.
The two of us just sat opposite each other, looking at her.
At this time, Li'er's eyes suddenly lit up, and she turned her head to look at him: "I want to see the lanterns!"
ββ¦β¦ Lanterns?"
"Hmm!" she nodded vigorously: "I heard them say that in the past, there were often lanterns in Yangzhou, and there was a full street, just like the Tianhe in the sky, which was very beautiful and beautiful!"
ββ¦β¦β
"Is that okay?"
Before Pei Yuanhao could speak, I frowned first.
Lanterns are not available every day, and they will be arranged during the New Year's holiday, and now she suddenly said that she wants to see the lanterns, where can they be there immediately.
I immediately said, "Li'er, the lanterns will not be there until the New Year." β
"New Year?" she turned to look at me, "Can't there be another time?"
"No, you can't. β
She frowned and muttered, "But, mother and daddyβ"
At this point, she suddenly seemed to remember something, looked up at us, and immediately shut her mouth. I also realized what she wanted to say, and subconsciously glanced at Pei Yuanhao.
He looked at Li'er, and then slowly turned his gaze to me.
Those eyes were deep and calm, without a trace of waves.
My breath was suffocated for a moment, I don't know if it was because of his gaze, or because of the increasingly dull weather at the moment, which was uncomfortably depressed, but he just glanced at me, and then slowly lowered his eyelids, leaving only a faint silence on his face.
Li'er immediately said: "Forget it, I don't want to look at the lanterns." β
Pei Yuanhao looked at her with a smile: "What does Li'er want to do?"
"I-I want to hear stories. β
"Listen to a story?"
"Yes, it's the same as yesterday, I want to hear that person tell a story. β
Pei Yuanhao looked at her for a while, and then smiled: "Okay, then let's go listen to the story." β
Li'er immediately jumped up from my arms and jumped out of the water pavilion, Gu Ping, who was guarding outside, hurriedly greeted him, Li'er waved his hand at him, and then turned back to us and smiled: "Then you guys hurry up, let's go listen to the story early!"
Pei Yuanhao and I glanced at each other, and then we both stood up.
Seeing her fluttering like a butterfly wearing flowers, the two of us walked to the edge of the water pavilion, and when he walked down the stairs, he suddenly said: "Many princesses of the royal family are married at the age of twelve or thirteen, and Li'er is nine years old this year, which is really not small." β
ββ¦β¦β
I looked at him.
"Besides, she is wiser than other children, and you don't want to take all her words as jokes. β
ββ¦β¦β
"And the kid is wild. β
I frowned slightly when I heard his tone, and before I could speak, he had already turned his head to look at me: "Why don't you look like you at all?"
