Chapter 392: Escape from Famine in the Ancient World 13
That evening, after having a beautiful dinner, Yuyan was sitting by the window in a daze trying to digest her food.
Suddenly, I heard someone playing the piano in the mansion. The sound of the piano was so sad that it made people feel creepy.
The person playing the piano in the Xie Mansion could only be Xie Xuan. Yuyan thought for two seconds, then immediately went there in the direction of the sound. Finally, she found Xie Xuan playing the piano in the Wangyue Pavilion.
He was still wearing an exquisite dark black robe, with a cold and handsome face, and casually playing the piano in his hand.
When he heard someone coming, he just raised his eyes and glanced at her indifferently. After playing the song slowly and unhurriedly, he didn't even look at Yu Yan, and spoke in an extremely cold manner.
"The song is over, please go back, girl!"
"…………" She was driven away as soon as she arrived. Is she so unwelcome?
But facing Xie Xuan's indifferent face, Yu Yan slowly curled her lips, took two steps forward to his side, and smiled sweetly.
"Brother, your piano skills are extraordinary. Since I appreciate your piano, I should give you a dance in return. I hope you won't despise it."
After saying that, she began to dance casually with graceful movements, but when she raised her hands, twisted her waist and turned around, she would always inadvertently brush the light gauze in front of Xie Xuan.
The entire dance was just her circling around Xie Xuan, posing and making coquettish gestures. Coupled with her face, the scene was simply indescribable.
Xie Xuan couldn't bear to watch anymore after taking one look. He drooped his eyelids and raised his hand to stop her.
"That's not necessary, go back!"
"…Is it so unattractive?"
"It hurts my eyes." Xie Xuan replied slowly without raising his eyes.
It's right that it hurts the eyes. Her self-esteem was hurt so much during the day. Although she eats and lives by him now, she must vent her anger.
"It seems that you don't have much talent for singing and dancing. If that's the case, I'll leave now. You can enjoy yourself!"
After saying this, the light gauze sleeves brushed across Xie Xuan's face again, and then she turned around and left gracefully.
Another day, Yuyan just brought a bowl of smoothie out from the kitchen. As she was walking and eating, she suddenly caught a glimpse of Xie Xuan sitting in the Guanhai Corridor not far away, drinking tea and reading a book.
Her eyes flashed, and she walked towards him excitedly, looking at him and asking.
"Brother, I have some mung bean smoothie that was just made in the kitchen. It's icy, sweet, and refreshing. Would you like to try it?"
"No, you..."
Xie Xuan glanced at her and just as he was about to say no, he saw Yu Yan screaming, twisting her foot, and rushing towards him.
Xie Xuan subconsciously reached out and used the book to support her waist, hoping to use the force to help her stand firmly, but unexpectedly, after Yu Yan turned around, she still couldn't stand firmly and sat down in his arms.
The two looked at each other, and Yuyan held up the mung bean smoothie in her hand without spilling a bit, and smiled at him with narrowed eyes.
"Brother, try it. It's so sweet." After saying that, he fed a spoonful of food into Xie Xuan's mouth.
Xie Xuan sipped the cool and sweet smoothie in his mouth, but his expression quickly darkened.
He pushed Yu Yan away from him with one hand, and with the other hand he straightened his robe that was messed up by Yu Yan, and said in a bone-chilling voice.
"leave me alone."
"Brother, you are so difficult to get along with. I just wanted to give you a taste of the smoothie, why are you so heartless!"
After saying that, he angrily threw the smoothie in his hand onto the table beside him, turned around and left angrily.
Xie Xuan, with an even colder expression, was left standing there staring at the bowl of ice cream in a daze.
Xie Ying hasn’t been around recently, and Yu Yan really feels like she’s letting herself go.
Her outrageous actions over the past two days simply stunned the system, and it finally couldn't help but ask Yu Yan about the doubts in its heart.
"Host, what have you been doing these past two days? Are you seducing Xie Xuan? What's your intention?"
The angry and aggrieved expression on Yuyan's face had long disappeared. She glanced at the system, rolled her eyes, and then replied to it.
"You know it, but you still ask me, don't you want to save face? What's your intention? Maybe you are attracted by her beauty?"
The system didn't expect Yuyan to admit it so directly, and couldn't help but look down on her.
"You, how did you suddenly become like this? Although I know you are a scumbag, but you already have Xiao Ying, and you actually want to seduce Xie Xuan, do you think you are a human being?"
But on second thought, Xie Xuan's stunning looks, it seems understandable that its face-obsessed host couldn't resist the temptation of his beauty.
Thinking of this, the system couldn't help but sigh and echoed her thoughts.
"Ah... that's right. Xie Xuan has grown into that state. So what if his legs are broken? So what if he's moody? That's not a big deal."
"It's my dog indeed. He thinks in sync with me."
"........."
Ugh, who would want to sync with a scumbag and hooligan like you!
Even if you have corrupt thoughts and morals and a questionable character, don't bring it with you! It is such a serious and loyal child, it's different from her.
Another morning, Xie Xuan was telling fortunes in the Rain Viewing Pavilion when Yuyan slowly came from a distance holding an oil-paper umbrella.
She walked into the pavilion, greeted Xie Xuan leisurely, and was just about to sit down when suddenly a strong wind blew.
Yuyan was wearing a skirt today, and the wind blew the veil off her body, revealing her white and tender shoulders like delicate porcelain.
At the same time, a loud thunder exploded in the sky. Yu Yan was so frightened that she rushed into Xie Xuan's arms.
After the thunder passed, Yuyan seemed to have just realized that her behavior was inappropriate.
Her face flushed instantly, she quickly put her clothes in place, and stepped out of Xie Xuan's arms. She pursed her lips, looked at Xie Xuan innocently, and explained.
"I was frightened by the thunder just now... I hope you can forgive me, brother."
Xie Xuan looked at his empty arms, and then at his clothes on his lap that had been messed up by Yu Yan again. Faced with her constant unintentional teasing, Xie Xuan finally couldn't bear it anymore and confronted her.
"You have been approaching me on purpose several times. What is your intention?"
Yuyan frowned, looking very aggrieved, and explained to him.
"Brother, what are you talking about! How could I approach you on purpose? You are Xie Ying's brother, and we are family. I just want to get along well with you, brother. Don't misunderstand me."
Yuyan's explanation made Xie Xuan frown even more.
Just when Yu Yan wanted to continue explaining, she suddenly heard Xie Xuan's cold and straightforward question.
"Will you follow me?"
Yuyan was stunned by his words, and became even angrier after she realized what was happening.
"Follow? What does that mean? How do I follow? Am I supposed to be my brother's maid? How can my brother insult me like this?" After she finished speaking, Yuyan glared at him indignantly.
Seeing that Yuyan misunderstood what he meant, Xie Xuan pinched his fingers which had already turned white and corrected her with forced calmness.
"Not a maid, but a lady."
"You..." Hearing his words, Yu Yan jumped up in shock, frowned and looked at him and scolded.
"Brother, are you drunk? What nonsense are you talking about? I am Xie Ying's fiancée, your sister-in-law, and you..."
Before Yuyan could finish her words, she was interrupted again by Xie Xuan.
His expression remained calm, and he stated the facts in a calm and objective voice.
"You're not married yet, are you?"
Even if they are married, as long as he likes her, he can still snatch her away, even... by any means necessary.
