When Qi Peipei was thinking this, Xu Zhilan, who had paid for herself, had already arrived in front of her. She smiled and said, "Miss Peipei, maybe you haven't eaten for a long time. It's cold at night. Let's eat something hot to warm up first." Body."
Qi Peipei naturally had no appetite. After all, today was supposed to be her moment of success. She was also planning to show off her talents at the chrysanthemum banquet and confess her love to Lu Zhizhang.
But before it was her turn to perform, such a big accident happened at this banquet. Even though the Qi family had no idea about it, as the organizer, they were afraid that they would inevitably be punished.
Moreover, the mother is still under investigation alone. Putting this series of things together, she has no appetite.
She originally thought that Xu Zhilan was just greeting her out of politeness. If she didn't eat, she would probably skip her.
But I never thought that Xu Zhilan stopped after hearing her words, "Miss Qi, no matter how worried you are about your mother, you still have to eat. If your mother comes out later and you faint from hunger, then It makes your mother sad."
After listening to Xu Zhilan's persuasion, Qi Peipei raised her head and glanced at Xu Zhilan. She asked softly, "Is my mother there too? In order to hold this chrysanthemum banquet, she has been busy keeping her feet on the ground these days. She rarely eats anything. Today she hasn’t eaten even a grain of rice. I’m really worried that her body won’t be able to bear it.”
Xu Zhilan smiled and said, "Of course there are. Mrs. Qi is just cooperating with the investigation, and she didn't really commit anything. Besides, your mother's help may be needed to solve this case, so you really don't have to worry too much."
After listening to Xu Zhilan's comfort, Qi Peipei felt relieved. This time Xu Zhilan handed over the soup noodles with her own hands, and she took it with both hands.
They were all freshly made noodle soup, and they were brought in urgently in insulated boxes. Therefore, when Qi Peipei took the noodle soup, she felt a warmth in the palm of her hand that burned into her heart.
She glanced at Xu Zhilan with special gratitude, and Xu Zhilan saw that she was finally willing to eat noodles, so she went to deliver noodles to others and apologized at the same time.
Although other people had complaints, the princess personally came to arrange the delivery of the meal and paid for it out of her own pocket, which undoubtedly won the favor of many people.
I have to say that although Xu Zhilan seemed a bit love-minded in the matter of Ye Jintian, as Princess Liang, she acted exceptionally appropriately and was blameless.
Even today, it is precisely because of her here that Zhao Nianze can avoid a lot of trouble.
When Jiang Nianjiao took the noodle soup from Xu Zhilan, she couldn't help but sigh to the system, "Actually, don't you think that if Zhao Nianze wants to secure his position, Xu Zhilan is more suitable than Su Zhirou?"
Hearing Jiang Nianjiao's words, the system immediately sounded an alarm, "Host, don't be joking. She has no destiny as the protagonist. She is just a cannon fodder. In the previous plot, she died long ago. Now, because the host and the villain have tampered with a lot of the plot, , there is a high probability that she will not die now, but you can’t even think about splitting up the female protagonist and the male protagonist, otherwise they will be fucked and you will be doomed.”
After hearing the warning from the system, Jiang Nianjiao felt that she was asking for trouble, but she did not want to bring Xu Zhilan and Zhao Nianze together. After all, Jiang Nianjiao felt that she had a better choice than hanging on her cousin's tree.
While Jiang Nianjiao was chatting with the system, Lu Zhizhang, who had followed the people from Dali Temple to the interrogation regardless of his injuries, actually walked out at this time. ..
When he looked at Jiang Nianjiao sitting on the corridor in the corner, he was only a little surprised for a moment.
At this time, the lights in the corridor were bright, and the girl's figure under the lights became more and more mesmerizing and beautiful. Her eyes were clearly empty, but in the eyes of others, she seemed to be pure and refined.
It's ridiculous to say that Lu Zhizhang has always thought that he is a very rational person. He rarely sticks to one thing for a long time. If he realizes that those people and things cannot be in his hands, he will probably give up. After all, there are options for him. There are many roads, so he doesn't need to waste extra time doing useless work.
But only when facing Jiang Nianjiao, he felt a pity that he couldn't let go. He even felt familiar that she should belong to him.
Therefore, even though Jiang Nianjiao didn't seem to want to talk to him and was still the future Princess Jin, he still didn't want to let go.
Even if she comes out
Now, his eyes would fall on her unconsciously.
He thought for a moment that he was hurt because of her today. After thinking about it, she might not be particularly resistant to him. He didn't expect that he had just approached Jiang Nianjiao when he heard someone behind him suddenly calling his name.
Lu Zhizhang turned around and looked over, only to find that it was Qi Peipei.
Qi Peipei's call naturally interrupted Jiang Nianjiao's conversation with the system. When she saw Lu Zhizhang following the call, she was only a little nervous. However, after seeing Qi Peipei, she felt relieved again, so she only took the initiative to talk to him. Qi Peipei and Lu Zhizhang said hello.
Lu Zhizhang was obviously a little concerned about Qi Peipei's lingering ghost. At this time, his tone became slightly colder. He only asked quietly, "Miss Qi, why are you here too?"
Qi Peipei just whispered, "I'm just walking around casually."
Then she seemed to muster up great courage and said, "Where is Mr. Lu? Did I disturb you?"
As soon as she said this, even though Jiang Nianjiao didn't want her to stay here, he had no choice but to leave her here to avoid suspicion. What's more, Jiang Nianjiao still wanted Qi Peipei to stay here.
Therefore, Jiang Nianjiao just smiled and said, "Of course not, Miss Qi was joking. Master Lu and I just met by chance. Since the girl is out for a walk, do you want to walk around with me now to eat?"
After hearing this, Lu Zhizhang was obviously a little unhappy. After all, who would be willing to drag someone down when they have a chance to be alone with their sweetheart.
But Jiang Nianjiao took the initiative to invite her, so obviously there was no room for him to interrupt.
He only hoped that Qi Peipei could leave on his own.
It's a pity that Qi Peipei is destined to disappoint him. After receiving Jiang Nianjiao's invitation, Qi Peipei only smiled and said "good".
Then she sat next to Jiang Nianjiao openly.
After she sat down, Jiang Nianjiao asked Lu Zhizhang, "Master Lu, do you want to go for a walk with us?"
She originally said it as a courtesy, thinking that Lu Zhizhang would probably reject her after seeing the current battle. Unexpectedly, although Lu Zhizhang resented Qi Peipei for staying here, he still said yes.
However, if he stayed, it would not have much impact on Jiang Nianjiao.
She knew in her heart that Qi Peipei liked Lu Zhizhang. Now that the two of them had met, she might as well try to bring them together. Maybe if Lu Zhizhang had another woman, he wouldn't keep his eyes on her.
After figuring out these key points, even though Jiang Nianjiao originally had some prejudices against Qi Peipei, at this moment she only felt that Qi Peipei seemed much more approachable.
And it was precisely because of Qi Peipei's joining that she was able to keep a distance from Lu Zhizhang.
"Master Lu, have those people confessed?" Jiang Nianjiao knew that Lu Zhizhang had gone with the people from Dali Temple to interrogate those assassins.
It was indeed getting late at this moment, and she also wanted to go back home, so she only took the initiative to ask about it.
Lu Zhizhang just sighed slightly when he heard this. He shook his head and said, "Those people have tough words. It will be very difficult to pry out the person behind the scenes from their mouths."
"Then when can we return home?" Jiang Nianjiao then asked.
Lu Zhizhang looked at the dark sky outside, and naturally understood that it was inconvenient to delay any longer at this time.
So he just said softly, "I will discuss it with a few colleagues when I get back."
When Qi Peipei learned that Lu Zhizhang was also accompanying the Dali Temple interrogation, he couldn't help but ask Lu Zhizhang about his mother's situation, "Does Mr. Lu know what my mother's condition is now? Why hasn't she come out yet?"
Lu Zhizhang had never participated in Qi's mother's interrogation, so when Qi Peipei asked him this question, his answer was relatively vague, "Your mother should be fine. She is just cooperating with the investigation. It's a pity that this happened in the Qi family today. A lovely chrysanthemum viewing banquet was completely ruined."
After hearing Lu Zhizhang's words, which were the same as Princess Liang's, Qi Peipei felt her heart suddenly fall to the ground.
But when she thought of today's incident and looked at the young man in front of her, she suddenly felt that if she couldn't confess to Lu Zhizhang today, she probably wouldn't have another chance in the future.
So Qi Peipei in a moment
Finally, he only echoed in a low voice, "It's a pity. I'm afraid the Qi family won't be able to hold such a banquet in the future. I originally prepared a dance carefully, but it's a pity that I didn't have the chance to show it."
After listening to Qi Peipei's words, Lu Zhizhang obviously did not intend to pick on her. He only comforted, "There will be opportunities in the future."
Qi Peipei smiled bitterly. She just looked at Lu Zhizhang and said, "But I think this may be God's will. If not, why did the accident happen today?"
"Why is Miss Qi so miserable? It was just an accident." Lu Zhizhang still comforted softly.
Seeing this, Jiang Nianjiao took the initiative to comfort her and said, "Miss Qi, I think what Mr. Lu said is quite reasonable. Maybe Lan Tian didn't let you dance like that on the stage today just to let you show off your strength at this moment." As for the dance. If Miss Qi doesn't mind that only Mr. Lu and I are watching, Miss Qi can perform this dance right here."
Qi Peipei didn't expect Jiang Nianjiao to be so cooperative with her. She couldn't help but glance at Jiang Nianjiao gratefully and said quickly, "Of course I don't dislike it."
Then she looked at Lu Zhizhang with an uncertain look and said, "I just don't know if Mr. Lu will have any opinions on this?"
After Lu Zhizhang comforted her, she realized that Qi Peipei did not really hurt herself. She just said this to give her a chance to express herself.
Realizing this, Lu Zhizhang was somewhat unhappy, so he remained silent.
