Jiang Lin's body suddenly froze, as if he was struck by lightning, and he froze in place instantly!
Hasn’t the Grand Master already rested?
how come……
"Lin'er, are there any guests outside the door?"
Hearing Shangguan Yi's calls one after another, Jiang Lin understood that he couldn't escape today.
He could only turn around stiffly and forced out an ugly smile.
"Father, why are you awake again?"
"It's windy outside, you better go back and rest."
"Don't catch a cold!"
While he was talking, Shangguan Yi was already wearing a nightgown and walked out shakily.
He first glanced at Jiang Lin, then turned his head and looked at the shivering Xiuyue with interest.
"Who is this……"
Jiang Lin's heart tightened and he said sternly to Xiuyue: "When you meet the Grand Master, why don't you bow quickly!"
"Father, this woman is just a musician in a brothel, don't let her dirty your eyes!"
Facing the powerful Shangguan Yi, Xiuyue was so frightened that she froze in place.
If Jiang Lin hadn't reminded her, she wouldn't even have thought of saluting Shangguan Yi!
"bye……"
"bye……"
"Meet the Grand Master... Your Excellency..."
Xiuyue stammered and murmured for a long time before she managed to squeeze out these few words through her teeth.
"Ha ha ha ha……"
Shangguan Yi smiled heartily, as if he had seen something very funny.
"You're an interesting girl. Why, am I that scary?"
"Don't worry! I don't eat people!"
Jiang Lin smiled carefully at the side. Hearing Shangguan Yi's joking words, he couldn't help but feel his heart in his throat again!
Master Taishi has always been serious about his words, so how could he be so interested tonight?
Could it be that……
Looking at Shangguan Yi's familiar eyes, Jiang Lin knew that he was obviously interested in Xiuyue in front of him!
Although Shangguan Yi is not young, her aesthetics are surprisingly the same and she has never set her sights on a woman older than eighteen.
In particular, I like women who are delicate, quiet, and non-aggressive.
And Xiuyue happens to be Shangguanyi's favorite type!
Jiang Lin quickly stepped forward, pretending to be in front of Xiuyue unintentionally.
"Father, it's getting late. My son will help you go back and rest!"
"You have to go to court tomorrow morning. Don't delay your business..."
Jiang Lin wanted to help Shangguan Yi away, but Shangguan Yi simply refused to answer his questions.
"Lin'er, where did you know such a fairy-like woman? Why did you bring her to your house today?"
"Girl, don't be afraid, come with me."
As he spoke, Shangguan Yi naturally put his hand on Jiang Lin's arm.
However, after waiting for a while, Jiang Lin had no intention of helping himself back to rest.
"Lin'er?"
"What's wrong?"
Jiang Lin was frozen in place.
It was cold for several days, and cold sweat dripped down his hair, but he didn't notice anything!
Shangguan Yi's words still echoed in his ears, but Jiang Lin couldn't believe his ears!
"Master Taishi, aren't you going to rest early tonight?"
"More tomorrow..."
"Lin'er." Shangguan Yi's tone was very warm and warm, but his eyes were as cold as falling into an ice cellar, "Why don't you call me your foster father?"
Jiang Lin paused: "...Yes, foster father."
"My son is thinking about your health and is afraid that you won't get enough rest."
"Lin'er," Shangguan Yi said slowly, "didn't you hear what I said?"
Shangguan Yi's voice was not loud, but his tone of voice that could not be ignored seemed to be extremely important!
"...No, foster father..."
"My son heard it!"
"It's good if you hear me."
Shangguan Yi stopped talking to Jiang Lin, but turned his back on himself and returned to the dormitory.
It wasn't until Shangguan Yi's back disappeared completely that Jiang Lin realized that his hands were numb.
"Jiang Lang!"
"Are you OK?"
Although Xiuyue was also scared, she still managed to crawl to Jiang Lin's side.
When she saw Jiang Lin's face, Xiuyue couldn't help but take a breath!
"Jiang Lang, what's wrong with you?"
"Why are you looking so pale?"
"Are you feeling unwell?"
"I know why you didn't let me come to the Grand Master's Mansion. Don't worry, I will never come here again..."
"It's just that Prince Rong's matter is not trivial. I had to tell you earlier!"
Jiang Lin smiled helplessly in his heart.
Will you never come again?
Unfortunately, there is no future!
"Xiuyue, I'm sorry for not protecting you!"
"Master, he...he..."
Only then did Jiang Lin realize how unspeakable it was to tell the truth!
However, what he didn't expect was that Xiuyue held his hand and shook her head lightly.
"Jiang Lang, I am a woman from Huixian Yage. I know what the Master Taishi means!"
"Don't worry, I will definitely go for your future."
"It's just that from now on, maybe Jiang Lang will dislike me..."
Looking at Xiuyue's plain little face, Jiang Lin's heart twitched without warning.
Is that heartache?
Jiang Lin doesn’t know either!
"no, I can not!"
"I will never dislike you..."
Xiuyue smiled brightly: "That's good."
"Jiang Lang, it's windy outside, you should rest early."
"Don't worry, I will definitely protect myself!"
After saying that, Xiuyue gently let go of her hand and walked towards the bedroom without hesitation.
Jiang Lin just stood in the howling cold wind, staring blankly in the direction Xiuyue left, and stood there for a long time.
At this moment, he didn't realize that this would be the last time he saw Xiuyue who was still warm.
…
The sky is bright.
"Master Taishi, I will help you change your clothes!"
Several little maids entered the bedroom with low eyebrows and did not even look at the extremely chaotic scene on the bed.
The few maids who serve Shangguan Yi personally have been following Shangguan Yi for a long time.
They were already so surprised by the scene in front of them that they were even a little numb.
Shangguan Yi finished washing and was about to go out to attend court when she happened to meet Jiang Lin in the yard with two huge dark circles on his face.
"Good morning, foster father!"
Jiang Lin forced a smile.
Shangguan Yi looked as if nothing had happened: "By the way, what you mentioned to me two days ago..."
Jiang Lin naturally knew what Shangguan Yi was referring to: "Don't worry, foster father, my son will be taken care of within three days!"
Although Jiang Lin was unsure, not only did Prince Rong have shadow guards to protect him at all times, but he himself was also wary of everything.
It is definitely not an easy task to destroy him without anyone noticing!
Although he hasn't thought of a countermeasure yet, facing Shangguan Yi, Jiang Lin can only agree first.
