Chapter 2038 She is not one of the four beauties
Shi Li turned and looked at Zheng Mei.
Here, besides Chu Ge, she was only close to Zheng Mei. Now that she was leaving, she felt a little reluctant.
But Zheng Mei still has her parents and family, and Shi Li can't selfishly keep her by her side.
She took the initiative to reach out and pat Zheng Mei's hand, and said with a smile: "Okay, I wish you a safe journey."
"Well... I..." Zheng Mei lowered her head, her eyes reddened, and she took a step forward bravely, hugged Shi Li gently, and whispered in her ear, "You must take good care of Yue Wang and live your life well."
No matter how ignorant Zheng Mei was, she could see that the Yue Kingdom was becoming increasingly powerful and Chu Ge was extremely powerful, so she was still a little worried about Shi Li.
After all, there are two princesses from the Qi Kingdom in front of him, and there must be beauties from all over the country behind him. Shi Li has no one else to rely on, so he must hold on to Chu Ge tightly.
Shi Li was not worried, after all, no one knew Chu Ge better than her. But she didn't need to tell Zheng Mei about this, so she just nodded to her, "Okay, I know everything."
Zheng Mei held her in her arms, reluctant to let go, but out of the corner of her eye she saw Chu Ge approaching from not far away, so she immediately let go of her and ran away like a rabbit.
Chu Ge took over from her, stood where she had just stood, and tilted his head to look at Shi Li.
"Are you so reluctant to let go?" He asked calmly.
Shi Li blinked, turned her head and was about to speak when a gust of wind blew over.
The wind after the rain was a little chilly, and the unspoken words turned into a sneeze.
Then, she was held in Chu Ge's arms again.
The broad, warm and familiar embrace made Shi Li purse her lips in amusement.
There was nothing much to say. Although Chu Ge had a weird personality, nothing was more honest than the body. She just sneezed, and Chu Ge was more nervous than she was.
Shi Li suddenly wanted to act pretentiously, so she raised her head and looked at Chu Ge with her watery eyes innocently.
"I want the camellias you picked." She spoke in a pretentious tone, frowning slightly.
Chu Ge lowered his head and looked at her steadily for a while.
Then, he raised his hand and picked the best camellia flower blooming high up.
The gorgeous flowers fell on Shi Li's temples.
She can do whatever she wants here, no matter what she wants or what she wants to do.
Just don't think about leaving.
On the second day, Zheng Mei no longer had the chance to meet Shi Li. She was woken up by the palace servants early in the morning and walked out of the Yue Kingdom's palace with her small bag.
Outside the palace gate, there was a carriage and a team of guards parked, escorting her back home.
The coachman was not from the palace. He looked at her curiously, as if he was trying to guess who she was.
At first Zheng Mei didn't take it seriously until later on the road when she accidentally heard the coachman talking to the escorting guards behind her.
"Is this the beauty from the king's palace? Why was she sent back?"
"Everyone knows that the king favors Madam Li. This guy must have failed in his bid for favor."
"Alas, she's so pretty but she didn't win the fight. How beautiful is that Madam Li?"
"I haven't seen her, but I heard she is stunningly beautiful. Otherwise, how could she have captured the king's heart?"
Zheng Mei felt ashamed after hearing this.
Although she was praised for her good looks, she was accused of vying for favor... If I had to say it, she seemed to be vying for favor.
She competed with the Moon King for Ah Li's favor, but the embarrassing thing is that it seems like she didn't even win!
Every morning when Shi Li woke up, she could see a freshly picked camellia in front of the window.
She just said it casually, but Chu Ge remembered it.
But this is not the most important thing.
The important thing is that from then on Chu Ge never tied her hair up again. She just let her raven-feather-like black hair hang loose, and she didn't care even when meeting outsiders.
Every time, Shi Li suffered a lot.
Although Chu Ge didn't say it, his actions kept telling her that he was waiting for the hairpin she mentioned.
There was no other way, Shi Li could only squeeze out some time and hurriedly follow the hairpin lady to learn how to make a men's hairpin.
Why do we say that time should be squeezed out?
The man who wasn’t so good before is now…very good.
Moreover, he is extremely insatiable.
It's a bit of an exaggeration, but it's the truth.
After about five days of procrastination, Shi Li finally made a nice hairpin.
"How is it?" Shi Li asked the two hairpin ladies holding the hairpin.
But judging from their expressions, it seems that it is not very successful.
"So be it."
But Shi Li couldn't bear to see Chu Ge continue to have his hair loose every day, so she took the hairpin that she had made with great difficulty and went straight to find him.
The sunlight came in from the window and fell on Chu Ge.
His robes were spread out, revealing a large area of his chest and abdomen, which were covered with several large and small scars from long ago.
This was the first time they saw each other, and Shi Li had never noticed it.
At that time, she was only surprised that this man was as dangerous as a poppy, but now she cares more about the injuries he had suffered.
She walked over with her hands behind her back, took out a hairpin and waved it in front of Chu Ge.
Then look him seriously in the eyes.
A man who doesn't show his emotions, only his eyes will betray his emotions.
"Let me help you tie up your hair!"
Shi Li leaned over and took up a strand of his hair. As she did so, she said, "I saw another camellia tree blooming in the garden. I want one."
"it is good."
The man rarely smiled. Instead, he waited for her to put on the crudely made hairpin for him, then turned around and held Shi Li's hand.
"Let's go pick some flowers."
Holding hands like this, it will last a lifetime.
