Song Jiaoyue was overjoyed when he heard this. Did this mean that they could still be together for a while?
"Then … it's not very convenient to talk here. Why don't we find a place where … where there's no one, so that we won't be discovered."
The person who said this felt a little guilty, but the person who heard this slapped her head in realization and said, "Why didn't I think of that? That's right, where are we going?
I'm not very familiar with the outside world. "
Normally, a lady would not leave the house, so it was normal for her to not be familiar with the outside world.
Song Jiaoyue naturally wanted to be a guide and find a better and more elegant place.
In addition, Bai Xiangxiu was also a talented person, so why not go there?
Thinking about it, he said excitedly, "Then put on your hat first."
"En, okay."
Bai Xiangxiu did not have any doubts. If she knew that the supporting male lead had such thoughts, she would have grabbed him and said, "Take me out of the palace!"
Unfortunately, she did not know and thought that the supporting male lead only wanted to take care of a weak woman like her.
Thus, she followed behind him with an open mind. Not long after, she saw him go to a shop and hire a small sedan.
"I can walk."
She remembered that she had just run here. With her current body, it was not too much of a burden.
But now, she had to sit in a sedan, and Prince Song had to follow outside. Was this really okay?
"Why don't you hire a carriage?"
She said a little embarrassedly.
"Haha, there's no need."
Song Jiaoyue covered his mouth with his fan and laughed. It was only a few steps, so why did he need to take a carriage?
This girl was still very cute.
"I don't need one. It's good to walk."
"There are many people here, so I don't want to get hit."
As Song Jiaoyue said this, his servants caught up. He said with a cold face, "Go do what you need to do. I don't need you to serve me."
The servants immediately had bitter expressions. How could their master not need to be served? If something happened, wouldn't they be the ones to suffer?
"Eldest Young Master, the boundaries of the capital are extremely complicated. Why don't we …"
"Scram …" Suddenly, he realized that the person in the palanquin had heard him. He coughed lightly and said, "What can I do? You can go back!"
Although his words were gentle, his eyes were unusually sharp.
The manservants were startled. They glanced at the palanquin waiting by the roadside and seemed to understand what was going on.
The Young Master had a date with a beauty, wouldn't they offend him if they followed?
Thus, they looked at each other and left in the end. They couldn't offend the Young Master.
As a result, Song Jiaoyue ushered in a proper couple's world without being suspected by Bai Xiangxiu.
Since it was a secret that she had come out this time, he naturally wouldn't let two people in the know to expose her goal.
As expected, Bai Xiangxiu thought so and was very touched.
She was completely unaware that she had been taken as a date by the supporting male lead, and had even happily entered a place called Don't Stop Drinking with him from the backyard.
The environment here was extremely elegant. Even at the end of autumn, there were still sceneries of late autumn.
The rows of red maples in the courtyard and the chrysanthemums in front of the house were all part of the scenery.
Especially since the rooms here weren't compact, one room was far from the other.
The room was very large, with the four treasures of the study and a writing desk, as well as some zither, chess, calligraphy, and painting. Not only could the guests eat, but they could also admire the paintings and compose poems and paintings.
This place was really humane, and the waiters didn't disturb them. They only needed to ask about the taboos and the shopkeeper would prepare some dishes for them. They would directly place the dishes outside and wouldn't ask the guests, so as not to disturb their mood.
Bai Xiangxiu never thought that there would be a place like this in the capital. The owner of this place really knew how to do business, or it could be said that he had the business philosophy of a modern person, being able to make an ordinary restaurant so unique.
However, she was afraid that the price wouldn't be cheap.
"This place is so good, the price must be very expensive, right?"
Song Jiaoyue was currently drinking tea. He never thought that she would care about this, but he didn't think much of it and said, "It's not very expensive, just one hundred taels … …"
Pu!
Bai Xiangxiu excitedly slapped the table and said, "What, one hundred taels?
This is too much, my monthly salary is only ten taels. The owner of this place must have gone crazy from saving money, right? "
After saying this, she couldn't help but mutter, "All my assets are only enough to eat two meals here, this is too scary."
She thought that two hundred taels was a lot, but she never thought that this was just a game!
Fortunately, the male lead would give her things from time to time and give her some money. Otherwise, if she came here with her original family's assets, she would simply starve to death.
Song Jiaoyue was startled at first, but when he heard her mutter in a low voice, he couldn't help feeling distressed and amused.
He never thought that even though she was in charge of the entire palace, she only had that little amount of money in her hands.
How could he know that Bai Xiangxiu was only talking about the private assets that the original owner of this body had saved up?
If she added in the money that the male lead gave her, she could be considered quite rich.
She was quite rich, but she always felt that she didn't dare to use the money that the male lead gave her, so she always hid it away and didn't dare to use it.
Song Jiaoyue instinctively wanted to give her some of the money in his hand, but when he reached his hand into his sleeve, he felt that it was too impulsive. Obviously, he didn't even have a reason to do so.
He couldn't help but sigh in his heart. He took his hand out of his sleeve and said, "The dishes here are quite good, you don't have to be polite. Anyway, you have to go back in the afternoon."
Bai Xiangxiu nodded and said, "This kind of opportunity is hard to come by, we can't leave him any money."
It was too expensive, she had to eat until she was satisfied.
In the end, Song Jiaoyue was amused by her serious attitude.
With his appearance and his unbridled smile, he was surprisingly attractive. Bai Xiangxiu was momentarily dazed by the sight of him.
But she suddenly realized that she was being a bit overboard, so she quickly lowered her head in embarrassment.
But how could Song Jiaoyue not see her embarrassment? He couldn't help but feel his heart warm.
Did she still have him in her heart? If that was the case, then could he …
No, so what if she did? She was still his friend's concubine.
And Long Heng's feelings for her were different from other people's. How was asking him to take her away from him any different from flirting with his wife?
He clenched his fists and changed the topic, saying, "I suddenly thought of something. Why don't you take a look at this painting?"
Song Jiaoyue stood up and led her to a painting. It was a painting of high mountains and flowing water, and it looked quite imposing.
"This painting …"
Bai Xiangxiu was depressed. She didn't know how to paint!
The only thing she knew was how to draw flowers, grass, and people.
She learned all these just to draw bonsai. She also learned to draw people when she was studying painting and calligraphy in school for more than a month.
She didn't know anything about mountains and rivers, but she just nodded and said, "The painting is very good. This kind of scenery can only exist in a painting!"
Who knew that this sentence would expose Song Jiaoyue's thoughts. He couldn't help but frown, and then he felt a little excited.
Was she really his confidante?
