Chapter 827: The Fire General's Next Wife (5)
"Yes." After regaining his senses, Makino looked at the woman's face.
Small and cute, with a slightly pointed chin, those watery eyes look a little nervous...
nervous? Makino secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and suddenly realized that it wasn't just the woman standing at the door that was nervous, even he was the same. From the moment Yu Qiu'er stepped into the study, he even forgot to breathe.
Then, as keen as he was, he naturally heard Xisuo's teeth chattering on the other side.
Behind Yu Qiu'er, there was a little maid standing at the door. That little maid, Mu Ye remembered, was Yu Qiu'er's personal maid.
At this moment, the maid was just standing outside the door and waiting, and her whole body was trembling out of fear.
But when his eyes shifted from the maid to Yu Qiu'er, Makino realized that Qiu'er was different today.
In the past, Yu Qiu'er should have been like her maid, and even fainted, but since she came in, although she looked extremely nervous, Yu Qiuer... dared to face him? !
"What's the matter?" Makino clenched his fists and coughed lightly.
"Tonight... dinner... can we have it together..." Xia Qiu whispered.
Saying this seemed to have exhausted all her strength, and her voice trembled with nervousness, but looking at her, Makino still felt that she was hallucinating.
Biting her lip, the cowardly woman just took this step, but she didn't get a response, her eyes were almost full of tears.
"I..." She couldn't finish her words, she turned around and staggered to go out.
"Okay." Recovering his senses, Makino came over quickly, and stretched out his arms to wrap around the waist of the staggering woman.
The waist that is not enough to grasp, the faint smell of Chinese medicine mixed with the unique fragrance of a woman, soft and slender as if he would break it with a little force.
"Don't be afraid of me." Makino couldn't help but said.
Rough hands caressed Xia Qiu's delicate face, rubbed it slightly, and then lifted her face up.
The thick eyelashes trembled like two small fans of indigo, hiding the tension in the water eyes.
She looked around flickeringly.
Her body trembled slightly, and a blush welled up on Yu Qiu'er's pale face.
But for some reason, she was still afraid of him, but Muye felt that Yu Qiuer's tense appearance was cute.
"Let's have dinner together tonight, what would you like to eat?"
Makino calmed down, helped the little girl in his arms to stand firm, then naturally took her hand, and walked with her to the front of the study.
There was a towering sycamore tree in front of the study, and there were stone tables and benches under the tree. Makino took Xia Qiu to sit under the stone bench, and the entourage offered two cups of tea consciously.
Looking inquiringly at the little woman who was Qingmei and trying to restrain her nervousness, Makino stroked the teacup and tried to lower his tone.
"You are from Jiangnan. I heard that there are several pastries in the capital from Jiangnan. Would you like to buy some and try them together?"
With her palm-sized face hidden behind the teacup, Xia Qiu looked at Makino again.
Changed from cloth armor to plain clothes, the man has broad shoulders and a broad body. Compared with her, he is like a thick and tall wall.
The mask covers half of the face, with thick black eyebrows, deep eyes and thin lips, Makino's silhouette is as handsome as a knife and axe, and there is a deep sense of power in every gesture.
Such a man, if placed in the world where Xiaqiu lives, is a walking hormone, which can arouse girls' screams and fantasies all the time, but in Yue Kingdom, people don't like Makino's appearance, and even disfigure him because of him half of his face and was always afraid of him.
