Starfall

Chapter 27 Inciting

Xingchen took Ning to Jiaxiu Lake, where all kinds of snacks are very appetizing, cheap and affordable, and the vicinity of Jiaxiu Lake are usually full of lights and the night market is booming.

Ning was jumping around him, looking left and right. Both sides of the narrow streets were full of colorful snacks. For a moment, the girl was dazzled. She wanted this, that, and the one next to her also looked very good. Looking up again, I can't see the end of the snacks on the whole street. Even if I don't eat all the way for three or four days, the girl whispered, full of joy.

Xingchen quietly peeked at Ning Zheng's expression and made sure that she was really not angry with herself again, and finally relieved. Tell me what you want to eat. I'll treat you today. You're welcome..."

Ning Zheng turned his face, rubbed the tip of his nose, and said favoring, "I won't be polite to you!" Humph, thanks to your angry girl just now, I don't want to talk to you anymore! No, no, I'm going to eat all over this street. You treat me!"

The girl stood in the street, with one hand on her waist and the other hand, as if to hold all the delicious food and fun of the whole street in her arms, with a smile on her face.

The star is one step behind Ning, which looks like her follower.

The two continued to walk forward. Today, Ning Zheng did not wear a pointed hood. His face was softly luster under the light of the lanterns hanging high on both sides of the street. The bright ponytails were as soft as a match. Walking on the street seemed to rise a bright moon. From time to time, someone would secretly look at Ning Zheng, and then saw the stars that followed him, he only felt that the sky was working. There is no better match than this! It's like a high-dimensional god coming to the world, as if this is the best thing.

"Star, I want to eat this!" Ning suddenly stopped and pointed to a grilled eggplant stall, with his eyes shining.

The stall owner is a simple and honest man. When he saw such a touching girl standing in front of his stall, he smiled and said, "Oh, the girl's eyes are really ridiculous. Come on, try our skills, sit down first!" He pointed to a few small tables and stools behind the stall and greeted the two to sit down.

"I didn't know that eggplants could be roasted!" Ning was sitting down, holding his face in his hand, and watching the little brother busy in front of the oven.

You don't know anything about this. Eggplant is more delicious. We are all roasting it with charcoal. Cut it vertically to make four pieces. Scallion, garlic, pepper, salt and dry and spicy noodles. It is full of color, fragrance, especially in autumn. Frosted eggplant, tight eggplant, and the seasoning is more delicious. It is more fragrant than roast mutton roast beef, and not greasy. . The girl comes from a famous family at a glance. She wants to keep in shape and eat our eggplant. Hey hey, it's delicious and doesn't grow meat!" The little brother's technique of roast eggplant is like a butterfly flying bees. At a glance, the seasoning that makes people's spleen and stomach are evenly sprinkled evenly. The bellow box under his feet is very rhythmic, and the flames rise happily, and soon it will be ripe and fragrant.

"Miss, come on, take your time! The chopsticks are on the table. Take them yourself!" The little brother put on thick cowhide gloves, put down the iron plate of the roasted eggplant, and put a wooden board in front of the two. The roasted golden eggplant is decorated with green onions and crystal garlic, as well as dry red spicy noodles, emitting a trace of heat, and the sound of being roasted by the residual heat of the iron plate is sizzling. The color, fragrance and so perfect!

Ning Zheng pulled out his chopsticks and handed a pair of chopsticks to Xingchen, "There are four pieces in total. Let's divide them equally!"

The stars smiled and said, "It's enough for me to eat one slice. The rest is yours. I'll make amends..."

"Hmm, you're still sensible!" Ning Zheng smiled and blossomed. As he spoke, he went up with chopsticks, tore off the eggplant meat and blew it and put it into his mouth, saying that it was delicious.

Xingchen didn't move his chopsticks for a long time, so he sat opposite her and watched the girl's satisfaction to eliminate the roasted eggplant. He felt that it was a great happiness to be able to look at Ning Zheng's happy like this. Looking at it, the sharp and thin lips involuntarily burst into a smile.

When he realized that he was laughing, he felt surprised and suddenly felt that the real happiness was not deliberately done. After seeing Ning Zheng, those entangled and boredom seemed to disappear suddenly.

"Why are you not happy to see me at the beginning!" Ning was biting his chopsticks and pouted at Xingchen. His big eyes blinked repeatedly, and his eyelashes flew up and down.

The warmth and happiness that had just surged instantly sank into the cold abyss.

Xing Chen was a little hesitant to say it, but he was afraid that it would destroy the pleasant atmosphere as soon as he opened his mouth.

"Tsk, didn't you promise me to invite me to eat and tell me why you are unhappy? Don't keep your word!" Ning was poking the eggplant fiercely with his chopsticks. As soon as he moved his finger, the eggplant was torn in half.

Xingchen's eyelids jumped and looked at the girl's eyes. If he doesn't open his mouth again, is this eggplant a lesson from the past?

Both horizontal and vertically died, and they simply cut the chaos and solved the doubts in happiness.

"What do you do at home? It seems that someone is looking for you?" Xing Chen thought for a moment and said.

Ning Zheng's smile shook on his face, like a lake that threw stones, rippled thousands of layers, and then returned to calm.

"Actually... In fact, I escaped from home..." Ning was holding his chin in one hand and chopsticks in the other.

"Why did you escape?"

"Dad forced me to marry. I didn't want to marry, so I escaped..."

"Oh..."

Is Ning Zheng going to get married? The stars find it ridiculous. He is about the same age as Ning Zheng, and he has no idea of getting married at all. Moreover, in his eyes, who is worthy of Ning Zheng?

As a prince from a noble family, he understands that marriages between nobles are mostly for the purpose of interests. Behind the marriage is the immeasurable value and the delivery of rights, sacrificing personal happiness. For the sake of the whole family, it is natural among the nobles.

Ning Zheng still didn't tell him what her family was doing. The boss of Tianyuan Accord said that Li Qingyu and a prince were looking for Ning Zheng. How much energy should Ningzheng's family have?

He was hesitating to continue to ask, and a long smooth tone sounded.

"Oh, distinguished lady, we meet again!"

Ning Zheng and Xingchen followed the sound. They were an elegant man with a warm smile. They were shaking their fans and looking at them. There were two best friends behind them, all of whom looked playful.

Ning Zheng frowned gently and whispered, "This guy is a direct descendant of Jiangdong Zeng's family. What a nasty guy!"

Jiangdong Zeng? Xingchen has a faint impression that he rarely deals with these dung bers. The Liang family has always been responsible for dealing with the big family in Shangji City by his sister Liang Yuexin. However, some good people ranked the romantic son in the city. Zeng Yunjie, the direct son of the Zeng family in Jiangdong, was the sixth, and Li Qingqi ranked first on the list. Xingchen is an upstart in Shangji City. He is usually not very publicized and failed to rise too much later, and ranked third.

Zeng Yunjie came over and held the scholar's gift, and the two dog-legged best friends behind him also saluted like dogs.

"Last time we met, I left in a hurry. I thought I had no chance to see Miss, but I didn't expect to meet at Jiaxiu Night Market. I was very surprised!" He spoke extremely smoothly, and his tone was slow and loud, especially the end of the tone was deliberately lowered, with a sense of softness.

I don't know whether Zeng Yunjie was intentional or unintentional, as if he didn't see the stars sitting opposite Ning Zheng. His eyes stared at Ning Zheng, and his eyes were faintly bright.

"I would like to ask the lady to enjoy the night scene and make up for the last crime of rudeness. Can you reward me?" Seeing that Ning was unmoved, he pressed forward step by step and took another step forward.

Ning Zheng raised his face, threw a beautiful curvature from the bright ponytail, and said without any room for change: "I won't go with you!" With that, he glanced at the stars and said softly, "I'm following this gentleman now, you are a little worse than him!" She stretched out her hand and drew 'a little' with her thumb and forefinger. Her clear eyes looked at Mr. Zeng jokingly through the slit.

Zeng Yunjie's smile stopped for a moment, and his eyes were gloomy for a moment, which also made him well-cultivated. He turned his head and looked at Xingchen, as if he had just not noticed him, "Yo, Mr. Xingchen, Shang Jicheng has recently become a celebrity who has been in the limelight of Mr. Li. It's rude!"

In a boring tone, Xingchen was not in the mood to deal with the roasted eggplant that was poked by Ning Zheng.

"The star is so elegant, beautiful and famous. He is so romantic. My little brother is really envious!" I have to say that Zeng Yunjie's shameless kung fu is excellent. If ordinary people encounter this situation, they will naturally leave, but he can stick like dog skin plaster and talk and laugh freely.

Xingchen swallowed the last mouthful of roasted eggplant, dropped a broken silver, stood up, put his left hand on the god knife intentionally or unintentionally, and took Ning Zheng with the other hand, ignored the thick-skinned Zeng son of Jiangdong at the corner of the city wall, and went straight away.

Ning pretended to be obedient and handed his hand to Xingchen and followed him. He jokingly made a grimace at Mr. Zeng, leaving him alone in embarrassment. Anyway, he hated this guy very much, and there was no reason to like Xing Chen's smile.

Watching the two leave, Zeng Yunjie's fake smile disappeared, but he was not annoyed and his face was calm.

The best friend behind him took a step forward and smiled, "It seems that this woman still doesn't buy Mr. Zeng. What should she do? Just let go and take advantage of the Liang family? However, Liang Xingchen is too arrogant. He is just a newcomer to Shangji City. He is arrogant because of the mystery of his family background... If he finds out the bottom, he will find that he is just a paper tiger, and he will be pinched to death?"

Zeng Yunjie unfolded the fan and gently fanned it. Shangji City entered the cold autumn night. At this time, in addition to the stupid madman who used the fan, he was a self-promotional scholar and literati.

"I finally remembered this woman's identity... When I first saw her, I vaguely felt familiar, but I didn't remember it. This time, I was sure who she was..." Zeng Yunjie smiled and played.

"Oh?"

"It happens that I know that the one who is expected to sit on the dragon chair in the imperial capital is also in Shangji City. He should be looking for this woman. Tut, the prince made a favor and told her whereabouts to the person. If it happened, he couldn't remember how good my Zeng family was. He only hoped that my grandfather would not see the wrong person to bet on the wrong treasure. The bet was too big, and it would be difficult to end if he lost. Jiangdong Zeng's family has fallen deep, and there is no need to retreat!" Zeng Yunjie said coldly.

His father is the best friend of Huang Menlang in the imperial capital. He is a smart person, and he is shocked by the woman's identity. No wonder Mr. Zeng doesn't want to let go of this high-looking woman. There are many beautiful women in the world. There is no need to be annoying. It turns out that Mr. Zeng has such thoughts.

"This woman can't touch it. Whoever touches her will die. Even I, I only dare to point it. I don't know whether this Liang Xingchen really knows or not. How dares to get so close to her... Aren't you afraid of the disaster of killing? The prince lit the fire and looked at the family behind Liang Xingchen..." Zeng Yunjie looked at the two who had integrated into the lights of the night market, and his smile became colder and colder.

"We're just waiting to see the play!" The best friend also laughed.
