Chapter 414 I Will Never Like Someone Else Again
When Shen Li went to Fengming Tower these days, she always felt that Qingshuang was a little absent-minded. She more or less guessed that it might be because of Xie Liangrui.
I still remember the joyful expression on her face when she heard that Xie Liangrui was coming. She must have liked Xie Liangrui.
"Qingshuang, I have already told you all my skills. I will not come here anymore. I also need to prepare to return to Kyoto."
"Ah? So fast? But I haven't learned it yet, Miss Shen. Considering that I taught you before, can you teach me for a few more days? Just a few days. If I still can't learn it after that, I promise I won't delay you, okay?"
After hearing this, Shen Li naturally couldn't refuse, so he nodded.
In the next few days, Xie Liangrui and Jin Duobao will come, and after she finishes teaching Qingshuang, they will leave with her.
Sometimes, the three of them would just stroll around, and sometimes, they would find a teahouse to listen to storytelling.
The three of them get along quite harmoniously, just like old friends.
Sometimes, she wanted to ask Xie Liangrui whether he liked Qingshuang. If he did, she wouldn't mind bringing them together, but thinking of what happened before, she didn't ask.
Three days passed like this. When she told Qingshuang again that she wanted to leave, she asked Qingshuang to stay, saying that she still didn't understand a little bit about the pipa, so she stayed for another day and he would teach her.
Shen Li was helpless. It was only one day, so it wasn't a big deal.
She felt that Qingshuang was delaying her so much probably for Xie Liangrui. If she left, Xie Liangrui would also leave, and she would be reluctant to let her go.
"Qingshuang, I really don't have anything to tell you about the Pipa. I have already said everything I know. If you still don't understand something, I can't help you solve it."
"I know, thank you for your teaching during this period." Qingshuang said with a smile.
Shen Li felt that she seemed a little different today. For example, the smile she just showed seemed a little nervous, which was very strange.
"Then Miss Qingshuang, I won't come tomorrow. You won't keep me here any longer, right?"
Qingshuang smiled again: "Of course not, then I wish Miss Shen a safe journey."
Shen Li was not overthinking it, this smile really seemed to be forced out, very unnatural, even a little restrained.
"Then I'll leave first."
After leaving the house, Shen Li saw Xie Liangrui and Jin Duobao still talking in the lobby, so he walked over.
Qingshuang followed behind and said to Xie Liangrui, "I have a few words to say to Master Xie alone, is that ok?"
Xie Liangrui didn't answer and glanced at Shen Li.
"We'll wait for you here." Shen Li said as he sat down.
Xie Liangrui stood up and followed Qingshuang back to the room.
"Brother Jin, do you think Qingshuang is going to confess her feelings to Xie Liangrui?"
"Probably."
"Do you think he will agree?"
Jin Duobao smiled and didn't answer.
"I feel Qingshuang is different today than usual, as if she is a little nervous." Shen Li said as he pondered.
"Really? I didn't notice that."
"Maybe I'm overthinking it?"
"I guess you're nervous because you're going to confess your feelings to Brother Xie?"
"It's possible." But Shen Li always felt that it was not likely. But when it came to other possibilities, she couldn't think of any.
inside the room.
"Mr. Xie, are you going to leave Xiezhou too?" Qingshuang asked.
"Ah."
"Is it because Shen Li is going back to Kyoto that you are leaving too?"
Xie Liangrui glanced at her and said, "You care too much."
Qingshuang smiled bitterly: "Yes, but do you really not understand my feelings?"
Xie Liangrui was silent.
"I knew before that you had a girl you loved in your heart. That girl is Shen Li, right?"
"I don't want to talk to you about this. I'm leaving first." Just as Xie Liangrui turned around to leave, Qingshuang hugged him from behind.
"Master Xie, Shen Li already has someone she likes, and you've heard her say that she's already engaged. There's no chance for you two. Can you please look at me? I really like you."
Xie Liangrui grabbed Qingshuang's hand around his waist with some disgust, and then forcefully pried it apart. He took two steps forward, then turned back to look at Qingshuang: "Since you know, I have nothing to hide. The person I like is Shen Li. Even if she doesn't like me, I still like her, and I won't like anyone else, so don't waste your time on me. I can't possibly like you."
After being rejected so firmly, Qingshuang's expression finally changed. She was sad, but also had a hint of ferocity in it: "What's so good about her? Is she worth it?"
"Whether it's worth it or not is my business, not yours. I came here to listen to the music not for you, but for her. I heard that you taught her the pipa and you have some friendship with her, so I chose you and hoped to meet her in Xiezhou. I didn't expect that my wish would come true. This is great."
Qingshuang saw the happy and satisfied expression on his face when he mentioned Shen Li, and felt it was very irritating: "It turns out that I am nothing in your heart. You left all your kindness to Shen Li, but gave all your cruelty to me. Xie Liangrui, I hate you, and you will regret it."
"I have no intention of hurting you, nor do I want to delay you, so I have to make things clear. Whether you think it's cruel or sad, just don't waste your time on me in the future." After saying that, Xie Liangrui left the room.
Qingshuang watched him leave without looking back. Finally, as if she had made a decision, she walked to the window, took out something like a fire starter from her arms, and pulled it open.
A red firework flashed across the sky.
Then she adjusted her expression, went to the lobby, and walked up to Shen Li and the other two.
"You three are about to leave." Qingshuang poured a glass of wine for Shen Li and the other two, and then handed it to each of them in turn: "I'll give you a glass as a farewell gift."
Shen Li glanced at Jin Duobao and then drank the wine.
Just as the three of them were about to leave, Qingshuang called them back, "Shen Li, you can't leave."
"What do you mean?" Shen Li had just asked when he saw a lot of people in black rushing into the lobby.
What's going on? Is Qingshuang still hiding her identity? Otherwise, how could she, a musician, raise secret guards or assassins? She felt that these people looked very similar to the assassins who assassinated Qin Yu in Nanzhou.
If that's true, then is she in cahoots with Huo Nanlian?
If not, there is another possibility, which is hiring someone to kill someone, but she and Qingshuang don't have any deep hatred, so she wouldn't hire someone to kill someone, right?
"Qingshuang, you want to kill me? Why?"
Jin Duobao and Xie Liangrui were both looking at the men in black who surrounded them with caution, and neither of them acted rashly.
"I'm not the only one who wants to kill you. I'm just giving these people a chance to kill you."
