Xie Jing Xing thought about it and reached out to open the basket and took out the bowl from inside.
The noodles in the bowl had already condensed into a paste and one could vaguely see the white noodles, green vegetables and an egg yolk. When it was just taken out of the pot, it must have been fragrant. Now that it was cold, it was not tasty.
Xie Jing Xing took a pair of chopsticks and started to eat in big mouthfuls.
Star anise and fennel said that Shen Miao had asked Gu Yu to buy a lot of fireworks, wine and dishes in a small pavilion not far from Bi Xiao Lou. It was the best place to watch the fireworks. She also specially instructed people to cook longevity noodles at the right time, presumably to make amends.
The two of them fought for a while and in the end it was Shen Miao who lowered her head first. Star anise also said that Shen Miao did not have a good time these days and Xie Jing Xing's heart was relieved. He was a man and had to be more magnanimous and would not haggle over the past matters. Who knew that before the words of apology could be said, he saw Pei Lang and Shen Miao lying in a pool of blood.
It was hard to describe the feeling at that moment. It was obviously the height of summer but one felt a chill from head to toe and lacked the courage to go forward to confirm.
Fortunately nothing happened.
Xie Jing Xing's noodles tasted like wax and finally finished the bowl of noodles. He placed the empty bowl on the table and held Shen Miao's hand. But he regretted it.
If he did not want to be angry with Shen Miao, why would Shen Miao want to make amends with him? If she did not go to the pavilion beside Bi Xiao Lou, perhaps this would not happen.
Outside, Luo Tan had received the news and was hurrying over. When she saw Gao Yang, she first asked, "What happened to my Youngest Biao Sister?"
"She is fine." Gao Yang said, "Pei Lang blocked a knife for her."
"Teacher Pei?" Luo Tan was startled, "How is Teacher Pei?"
"Not very good." Gao Yang shook his head.
"Even you cannot save him?" Luo Tan asked.
Gao Yang smiled bitterly, "I am a physician and not a Bodhisattva. If everyone can be saved, no one would go to King Yama's palace."
Luo Tan said, "Today I only know that Youngest Biao Sister quarreled with Brother-in-law and said that it was because Youngest Biao Sister did not visit Brother-in-law when he was ill? The Furens in Bi Xiao Lou were all saying that Biao Biao was not good and said that Biao Biao was cold and heartless. What did they know! When Biao Youngest Sister was at the strange Taoist priest's place asking for medicine for Brother-in-law, who among them saw it? You are being unreasonable! "
"Strange Daoist?" Gao Yang understood the crux of her words and asked, "What strange Taoist? What do you mean by asking for medicine?"
Luo Tan was stunned for a moment and was annoyed that she had said the wrong thing. In a moment of carelessness, she thought that Shen Miao did not allow her to speak and said, "Nothing, I just casually said it. I will go and see Youngest Biao Sister first. "Finishing, he walked towards the room where Shen Miao was lying.
Gao Yang pulled her back, "Don't go. Xie Jing Xing is inside."
"Ah?" Luo Tan lowered her head, suddenly thinking of something, said: "Are you staying here tonight?"
"I want to stay here and see what's going on with Pei Lang," Gao Yang said. "You can go back first."
Luo Tan shook her head, "I am not going back. I will stay here and wait for Youngest Biao Sister to wake up."
Gao Yang knew that Luo Tan had a stubborn character and did not persuade much.
This night, in everyone's heart, was exceptionally long.
The matter of Shen Miao and Pei Lang being assassinated was concealed and everyone in Bi Xiao Lou did not know about it. They only thought that Xie Jing Xing had left early and did not know that it was a sleepless night in Prince Rui's residence. This night, the servants were anxiously waiting for the ending.
In the summer, the days were long and the nights were short. When the sun started to shine and the birds in the courtyard started to sing, the two rooms were silent.
