Chapter 414: Revenge of the Republic of China 2
The two were led by a clever little boy through a corridor decorated with golden reliefs and into the spacious theater.
After sitting down, Xiao Beichen considerately adjusted the angle of the chair for Xue Yi to ensure that she was comfortable.
Xue Yi pretended to move her legs slightly, and the high slit of her cheongsam shifted a little, revealing the girl's slender white legs. Following the line of the high heels, she looked even more seductive and beautiful.
The man who was adjusting her chair caught a glimpse of her from the corner of his eye, his breathing staggered for a second, then he took off his coat and gently placed it over Xue Yi's legs.
On the stage, the curtain slowly opened, revealing the carefully arranged scenery, foreshadowing the wonderful play that was about to be performed.
"It's cold, let's take a ride." His voice was a little hoarse.
Xue Yi tilted her head slightly and looked at Xiao Beichen beside her. The light dimmed, casting a shadow on the man's stern profile. His profile looked particularly handsome under the light, with determination in his brows.
She didn't expose his little thoughts, and smiled and said, "I'll listen to Brother Beichen."
The audience around began to take their seats one after another, and the soft whispers mixed in my ears.
In the Grand Theater, the play was performed on time.
On the stage, the lights are focused, the scenery is dreamlike, and the performers are dressed in gorgeous costumes, performing a series of joys and sorrows.
The plot tells the story of a pair of childhood sweethearts who were separated by the tricks of fate. In order to pursue higher status and power, the man abandoned the woman he once loved and chose another woman who could help his career.
As the plot progresses, the audience's emotions are also affected.
When the plot reached its climax, Xue Yi felt a pain in her heart and her eyes were filled with tears. She turned her head and tried to wipe them away quietly, but she met Xiao Beichen's concerned gaze.
"What's wrong?" he asked softly, holding the handkerchief in front of his eyes.
Xue Yi tried to hold back her tears and shook her head, but she couldn't escape the surge of emotions and finally burst into tears.
Seeing this, Xiao Beichen was at a loss what to do. He quickly held her in his arms and coaxed her in a low voice: "Don't cry, is there something I did wrong? Tell me, and I'll change."
Xue Yi leaned in his arms, her tears soaking his collar. She choked and asked, "Brother Beichen, will you be with someone else in the future and not want me anymore?"
Xiao Beichen was startled, then said solemnly: "No, Shuwan, I will never leave you. If I disobey you, let me be struck by lightning and die a miserable death."
Seeing the man's serious expression, Xue Yi felt disdainful in her heart, but pretended to be touched and threw herself into his arms, putting her index finger on his lips and rubbing it softly in his arms: "Don't say that, Brother Beichen, I believe you..."
"Dad said that he would hold a wedding banquet for us when I turn eighteen, and invite uncles and aunts to witness it, okay?"
Xiao Beichen's gaze fell on the watery eyes of the person in his arms, and his Adam's apple rolled subconsciously.
He always felt that Shuwan seemed a little different.
But he couldn't tell exactly what the difference was.
Now, just hearing her words, it seems that I have already imagined the image of her wearing wedding dress and veil in my mind.
"Of course it would be great. By then, my Shuwan will definitely be the most beautiful bride in North City." His fingers gently wiped away the moisture from the corners of the girl's eyes, looked at the crowd around them who were almost leaving as the performance ended, and stood up holding her hand.
Xue Yi hadn't stood up yet. Just when she was halfway up, she suddenly twisted her foot and fell into Xiao Beichen's arms, "Hey!"
She exclaimed, her face full of panic.
The ankle became red and swollen at the right time, looking particularly scary against the snow-white skin.
The man immediately became anxious: "Shu Wan!"
He didn't care about the difference between men and women. He stretched out his long arms and picked her up. He covered her legs with his coat, got into the sedan chair in a hurry, and rushed back to the Marshal's Mansion.
