085 Surprise
Gu Yanfei has been practicing in the Yaoling Realm for two hundred years and has met countless people with outstanding looks. This person is definitely one of the best, but what piques her interest is not this person's appearance, but his scarlet luck.
Interesting, really interesting!
The more Gu Yanfei looked at him, the more focused he became. His eyes were bright, like a curious and lazy cat. He couldn't bear to look away from this person.
In this small world, there are only people.
But in the Yao Ling Realm, there are people, demons, spiritual beasts, and demons...
The demon's luck is blood red, which is subtly different from this person's scarlet color.
And she was very sure that the beauty in front of her was a human being, not a demon.
Hua Dan, who played the role of the princess, looked into the distance, worried and missing her fiancé, the prince of the Hou family.
Every glance and every libretto is just right, making people feel pity for her and wish they could rush up and take her into their arms.
As the sound of silk and bamboo became louder and louder, other actors with oily heads and noodles also appeared on the stage one after another, and began to sing long and slow tunes, their voices sounding like they were complaining in return.
Gu Yanfei didn't care about the plot at all, nor the other actors, he only paid attention to the actress.
"Sir, please come this way."
The waiter's enthusiastic voice came from behind, but Gu Yanfei turned a deaf ear to it. He was so focused that he didn't even notice that there was another person in the booth.
It wasn't until the handsome young man in white sat down at her table that Gu Yanfei slowly looked away from Hua Dan and turned to Chu Yi. She raised her eyebrows and pushed the wine bottle towards him with a smile.
Chu Yi was very sensible and admitted his mistake with a cheerful smile: "I'm late, I'll punish myself with a drink."
As Chu Yi said this, he picked up the wine flask and filled his own and Gu Yanfei's glasses with wine, and then drank the wine in one gulp.
Every movement he makes is always unhurried and unhurried, with a feeling like flowing clouds and flowing water, calm and elegant, and that noble demeanor emanates from his bones.
The noise outside seemed to fade away at this moment.
Gu Yanfei rested her chin on her palm and began to stare at Chu Yi again, looking up and down with a very calm look.
Under normal circumstances, mortals' luck is the same as Gu Yunzhen's, showing a white "qi", which may be lighter or darker, and will change according to the fortune-telling skills.
This "usual situation" does not apply to Gu Yanfei, nor does it apply to Chu Yi.
There is nothing on Chu Yi. He is a person abandoned by God, just like her.
Gu Yanfei looked at Chu Yi for a while, then felt bored, and looked with interest at the beautiful actress on the stage.
On the stage, the stunning beauty was leaning on a beauty couch. While singing, she covered her face with her sleeves as if she were weeping. Only a pair of beautiful, silky eyes were revealed from behind her sleeves, looking so pitiful.
In the entire theater, all the guests watching the theater were silent. They forgot to drink and eat. Their attention was all attracted by this actress, and their emotions were filled with her smiles, tears and sighs.
Influenced.
They were happy, scared, sad, and worried... all because of the beauty on the stage. They just wanted to bring their country to the beauty and win her smile.
Gu Yanfei was looking at the beauty, while Chu Yi was looking at Gu Yanfei.
This was the first time he saw her wearing men's clothing.
Her black straight skirt made her skin look like snow, and her long black hair was tied casually with a hairband at the back of her head. Her whole person was unconventional, without the demureness or leisurely smile that a woman should have.
If an ordinary woman were to dress up as a man, it would be easy for her to show a sense of excessive femininity in her movements, but there was nothing unnatural about her. She just felt extremely handsome, as if she was born to be like this.
.
After a small climax, Hua Dan walked off the stage, her graceful figure no longer seen, and Xiaosheng, the male protagonist who played the role of the prince of the Hou family, also made a grand appearance, dressed in a knight's costume, holding a long sword in his hand, and full of heroic spirit.
Seeing Hua Dan's end, Gu Yanfei turned her head back boredly, and the long hairband and hair on her head flew up, and the hairband happened to hook the copper tent hook beside the curtain.
She casually pulled off the hair tie, but it was still tangled with the copper tent hook, so she simply took off the hair tie that bound her hair.
A long black hair instantly poured down like a waterfall, draping casually on her chest and back.
Gu Yanfei took off the hair tie from the copper tent hook and was about to tie her hair again when she heard Chu Yi suddenly say: "Don't move."
"I'll do it." Chu Yi said as he stood up and walked towards Gu Yanfei.
Gu Yanfei: "..."
Gu Yanfei is usually not so obedient, but now, her attention was attracted by the hosta held in Chu Yi's hand.
It was a white jade hairpin, only one end of which was as red as blood. The craftsmen skillfully carved it into two plum blossoms, one half-open and the other in full bloom, with distinct layers of petals.
Gu Yanfei's eyes lit up, and she sat there obediently without moving, letting Chu Yi tie her hair in person.
He was very skilful in his hair-twisting movements, and his slender fingers were nimble and nimble. In just a few clicks, he pulled Gu Yanfei's thick green hair into a bun, using only the hosta to hold the hair in place.
Gu Yanfei touched her bun and praised sincerely: "You are so awesome!"
She couldn't use a hosta to pull her hair up so beautifully.
Two slender jade fingers touched the jade hairpin from the bun, lingering on it.
She was overjoyed and touched the hosta repeatedly, feeling the shape of the plum blossoms with her fingertips. Her smile was as bright as a flower, and she was happy and happy.
This plum blossom hosta is not an ordinary thing.
After getting the jade pendant with phoenix pattern, Gu Yanfei realized something.
Although the spiritual energy in this small world is now thin and almost non-existent, there should have been spiritual energy here thousands or even ten thousand years ago, so it was possible for jade stones with spiritual energy to be bred and carved into jade pendants by craftsmen.
It is conceivable that the jade pendant with phoenix pattern will not be the only spiritual object in this small world.
Gu Yanfei originally wanted to look for it slowly, but she didn't expect that Chu Yi would give her such a surprise today.
"Is this for me?" she asked a little uneasily.
Chu Yi smiled lowly: "This is a return gift."
Gu Yanfei was startled, and immediately remembered the branch of red plum she gave to Chu Yi last time, and curved her lips.
She has always been unlucky, but interestingly, when she meets Chu Yi, her luck will become very good.
It was like this in my previous life, and it will still be like this in this life.
Thinking about it, Gu Yanfei's smile became brighter and she showed her pleasure without hesitation: "I like it very much!"
Of course she likes it, she likes it very much!
This jade hairpin is a good thing. Although the spiritual energy in the jade hairpin cannot be absorbed and is not as good as that piece of jade pendant with phoenix pattern, as long as you wear this hairpin all year round, you can warm up your spiritual consciousness.
Gu Yanfei did not expect that spiritual objects like the phoenix pattern jade pendant would be common, otherwise, this small world would not be as lacking in spiritual energy as it is now.
"As long as you like it." Chu Yi raised his hand to gently hold the plum blossom hosta for her, with an indescribable nostalgia hidden in his gentle smile.
Gu Yanfei happily poured wine for Chu Yi.
Chu Yi sat back again, and suddenly looked through the window of the lounge to the lobby on the first floor, and then made a gesture to Gu Yanfei to look down.
Gu Yanfei put down the wine bottle and followed his gaze.
A handsome young man with a slender figure walked into the lobby on the first floor. He was wearing a sapphire-blue brocade robe with auspicious clouds and a black jade-embedded brocade belt around his waist. He was tall and mighty, and had the unique sharpness of a warrior.
"This is Murong Yong." Chu Yi said.
Gu Yanfei glanced up and down at Murong Yong.
Ever since she went to Jiahui Courtyard to add makeup to Gu Yunzhen a few days ago and found out that her luck had been robbed by Gu Yunchun, Gu Yanfei has been a little concerned.
Later, Gu Yanfei specifically asked Juan Bi to inquire. Gu Yunzhen had indeed had bad luck since he was a child. It was not just the things the third wife said, but there were countless more examples.
Let’s just say that in February of this year, when Gu Yunzhen, Gu Yunzhuang and several other sisters went to visit Mrs. Hou’s sister Wang’s house, she was accidentally rubbed on the head by a polo ball;
In June, she was boating in the small lake in the Hou Mansion. The bottom of the boat suddenly leaked. She couldn't swim, so she almost drowned...
In August...
Gu Yanfei has been thinking about things in the previous life from this life.
In his previous life, Gu Yunkuang's disfigured face and the misery he suffered for the rest of his life were probably due to bad luck.
Gu Yanfei didn't have a clue for a while. Thinking that Gu Yunzhen's wedding was coming soon, she asked Chu Yi to find out about Gu Yunzhen's fiancé Murong Yong.
This morning she received a letter from Chu Yi, asking her to come to Tianyin Pavilion.
Gu Yanfei stared deeply at Murong Yong's face.
The young man's face has sharp edges and corners, thick eyebrows, big eyes, a hooked nose, and thin lips, forming a handsome and masculine face.
Gu Yanfei's eyes turned to his aquiline nose and frowned slightly.
The nose is like an eagle's beak, pecking at the heart's marrow.
Chu Yi whispered: "Murong Yong serves in the Three Thousand Battalion. He was originally a fifth-rank valiant cavalry officer. He made his first contribution to suppressing bandits in Qingzhou last month and was just promoted to a fourth-rank guerrilla general."
Murong Yong was just a fourth-grade military attache. He was not a big shot in the court. He was not even qualified to attend the morning court. If Gu Yanfei hadn't asked him, Chu Yi would not have even bothered to pay attention.
He slowly twirled the wine glass with his slender fingers, took a sip of the wine, and then continued: "Since the Yao family came to the capital, he has been coming to Tianyin Pavilion almost every day to support a famous actor."
Chu Yi said slowly, his expression and tone were very calm, as if he was not surprised and didn't seem to care.
Murong Yong, who was below, entered the lobby. He first looked towards the stage with burning eyes. When he saw that there was only a young student and another old student on the stage, he looked back with waning interest.
The waiter from Tianyin Pavilion walked in front and respectfully led Murong Yong towards the stairs. As he talked, he was warm and familiar, and he obviously entertained Murong Yong from time to time.
"Who are you praising?" Gu Yanfei couldn't help but ask.
In her mind, she thought of the beautiful lady who had just conquered the country and conquered the city.
