Chapter 450: Calling for the bow
Chapter 450: Calling for the bow
Li Jingyi shouted destructively, and tried to use her sharp and piercing voice to interfere with the harmonious and beautiful music being played by the two people on the opposite boat.
However, her inappropriate behavior soon aroused disgust and dissatisfaction from people around her.
You know, as long as the people present have a little normal aesthetic taste and judgment, they can easily hear that the musical coordination between the two people opposite is perfect, as if it was made in heaven.
The melodies they performed were sometimes melodious and graceful, like the gurgling of a clear stream; sometimes passionate and surging, like raging waves crashing against the shore.
Such a wonderful performance deserves people's warm love and sincere praise, and should not be destroyed or disturbed by Li Jingyi's voice which has no aesthetic appeal at all.
But because they were all in the same boat, it was not appropriate to blame them too much. Only some young ladies from other families tried to dissuade her on the surface, but actually laughed at Li Jingyi in secret.
"Okay, okay, Jingyi, we are so far away, they shouldn't be able to hear us, don't shout anymore, it makes you look like a lady, you don't look like a lady at all. Shout again when we get the boat closer. What do you think?"
"hehe......"
"hehe......"
The other ladies were all hiding their heads and laughing secretly, and they all felt that Li Jingyi had no dignity of a noble lady at all.
Speaking of Mr. Bai, he is truly an eye-catching figure!
He is not only handsome and graceful, but also talented and eloquent. His temperament is elegant, and his every move exudes a unique charm, which makes countless girls in Beijing fall in love with him.
It can be said that Mr. Bai is the ideal husband in the hearts of many women.
Whether it is his gentle and polite attitude towards others, his smart and wise mind, or the calmness and confidence he shows in various occasions, all of them make people yearn for him.
However, no matter how perfect a person is, he will eventually be conquered by another person who is equally perfect.
In the end, Mr. Bai, the dreamer of thousands of girls, actually married the eldest daughter of the Sun family.
Although this ending is somewhat regrettable, if you think about it carefully, it is reasonable.
After all, the eldest daughter of the Sun family came from a prominent family, and she and Mr. Bai were a perfect match; and the two had known each other since childhood, and grew up together as childhood sweethearts, so naturally their relationship was very deep. Such a perfect match was really enviable!
Although everyone felt a little jealous, they were still very decent.
This one doesn’t work, let’s change it.
However, Li Jingyi is always so shameless!
She often uses her identity as Mr. Bai's cousin as a cover to brazenly spread disgusting words everywhere.
She kept saying, "My cousin and I have a deep bond, our friendship is stronger than gold!"
She even shamelessly shouted: "In the future, I will become my cousin's second wife and share the glory and wealth with him!"
What kind of shameless words can come out of her mouth!
It seemed as if all the etiquette and morality in the world were nothing but passing clouds to her.
Such behavior is truly despicable!
Although no one said much on the surface, they all sneered at her and looked down on her in private.
After all, in their eyes, Li Jingyi did not have the demeanor and temperament that a noble lady from the capital should have.
When the children of officials and noble ladies in the capital gathered together, they would point fingers at her and whisper about her faults in private for the sake of the face of the Sun and Li families.
"Did you hear anyone calling 'cousin'?" Sun Xinyan emphasized the word "cousin", but appeared confused on the surface.
Bai Ningchuan's alarm bells suddenly rang, of course he heard Li Jingyi's voice.
In fact, both of them heard the sound clearly without exception.
Moreover, just by relying on the sound they heard, they were able to accurately determine that the person was undoubtedly Li Jingyi.
However, what is somewhat surprising and wonderful is that there seems to be a tacit understanding between the two that does not require words.
Faced with this situation, they all chose to pretend that they knew nothing, as if they didn't even notice anyone approaching.
No matter which party they are on, they all carefully guard this rare time of solitude, fearing that others will interfere and destroy the peaceful and beautiful atmosphere at the moment.
Bai Ningchuan didn't expect that there were still people out boating on the lake in the afternoon.
It’s fine if we just go boating on the lake, but we actually do it in a group?
Although he didn't care about being seen by others, he still had to take care of Sun Xinyan's reputation.
"There is no sound. You must have heard it wrong. It's a bit windy outside. Why don't we go into the cabin and take a rest?" Bai Ningchuan denied it directly and decisively, and then suggested seriously.
Sun Xinyan was very happy to see Bai Ningchuan being so sensible.
If he asked Li Jingyi to come over in front of her, it would be difficult for her to refuse. After all, the two of them had not yet gotten married, and Li Jingyi was his cousin after all.
"Okay, I'm a little thirsty too, let's go in and have some tea." Then Sun Xinyan entered the cabin with the help of her maid.
Bai Ningchuan went in afterwards.
Then he ordered the servant to tell the boatman to take another waterway and divert from the boat they were about to meet.
"Hey, how did they get in?" Li Jingyi stood on the bow of the boat chopping peppers anxiously.
"Jingyi, did you see the wrong person? Could it be that he is not Mr. Bai?"
"That's him. He's my cousin. Of course I won't make a mistake."
"Really? If that's your cousin, then... is that woman Miss Bai?"
"Oh~~~ I understand. Mr. Bai doesn't want us to disturb them."
Everyone was talking about it...
"No, it must be that my cousin didn't hear me calling him. If he heard me, he would definitely invite me to his boat! Ahem... Ahem..."
Li Jingyi coughed slightly when she spoke, which was due to her shouting to someone from a distance just now.
"Really? That's not right. Look, the ship seems to have turned around. He..."
"That's what I said. My cousin must have asked the boatman to come here quickly. He must have seen me."
Just when Li Jingyi was filled with joy and pride, and was secretly overjoyed that her cousin came to see her,
The ship, which was originally heading straight towards them, suddenly made a 180-degree turn as it got closer and closer to them!
It turned around without hesitation and sped away in the opposite direction, leaving behind only the churning lake water and the gradually receding shadow of the boat.
