Back In Time For Imperial Examination Chapter 108

The little singers all sang in northern dialect, with clear pronunciation and the words were very clear. Xie Ying leaned against the window and listened attentively, slowly reciting the lyrics. After finishing, she repeated the last sentence: "If there is someone by my side all the time, wouldn't it be far better than meeting on the Magpie Bridge once a year?"

The palace lantern hung overhead, casting a deep shadow in Xie Ying's slightly sunken eye sockets. He looked out the window, his eyes flickering with tiny sparkles, as bright as the ripples in the lotus pond below.

Although the eyes were not looking at anyone, the extremely bright and sharp light in them reminded Ryan Cui of the gaze that fell on him in the afternoon. He remembered that Xie Ying said that she had bumped into him in the afternoon, so he slowly moved from the window, half turned sideways and asked: "Brother Xie, did you see me before? Was it outside the small building in the east courtyard? I was talking to a family?"

He didn't see Xie Ying at that time. Maybe they just showed up at the door and left?

Xie Ying said, "It seems to be at that time. Weren't you picking flowers at that time? They were oleanders from the south, and the flowers and leaves are slightly poisonous. I wanted to remind you, but then I saw you turned around and didn't do it again, so I let it go."
