"You don't have to be so polite to me. It's good that Jiaojiao is fine, otherwise I will feel bad." Xia Zhihe lowered his head slightly and moved closer to Sun Jiaolan.
"Sir, Jiaojiao..." Sun Jiaolan seemed to be shy. She trailed off halfway through her words and buried her head even lower, as if she wanted to get into Xia Zhihe's arms.
"What's wrong with Jiaojiao?" Xia Zhihe's heart was filled with excitement when he saw her like this. He lowered his head and moved closer to her, almost kissing the top of her head.
Sun Jiaolan seemed to be aware of Xia Zhihe's movements, trembling like a frightened deer, and then suddenly used force to push Xia Zhihe away slightly.
However, she did not really withdraw from his arms. Instead, she moved her upper body away a little and looked at him with a red face. There was a girl's shame and unconcealed sadness in her eyes: "My lord, you can't, you have a wife." , Jiaojiao shouldn't be like this, shouldn't...be tempted by you..."
When Xia Zhihe heard this, he felt happy immediately. While calling her nickname with infinite tenderness, he said half-explainingly: "Jiaojiao, I love you. Marrying the Li family back then was just out of necessity. The Li family was so powerful. , and I am just a scholar who has just passed the exam, and I am unable to resist at all. But I am sincere to you."
The two people there looked at each other affectionately and talked to each other. On the treetop here, Xia Luotong couldn't help but start complaining mode again.
"Tsk tsk! What a white lotus look, what a scumbag talk!" Xia Luotong commented with disgust on his face, and finally came to the conclusion, "It is indeed a perfect match!"
Wu Zechen on the side listened, but couldn't help but ponder the meaning of the words she had never heard before in her words.
The scumbag is easy to understand. After all, he was very clear about Xia Zhihe abandoning his original wife and taking the initiative to hook up with Li. It was not at all forced by Xia Zhihe's own words.
But what does this white lotus mean?
Scumbag is used to describe Xia Zhihe, so Bai Lianhua should be used to describe Sun Jiaolan?
If you don't understand, just ask. Wu Zechen immediately asked: "Tong'er, what does white lotus mean? But does it describe Sun Jiaolan?"
Xia Luotong was stunned for a moment, then realized that he had said words he didn't understand, and then explained: "White Lotus refers to someone like Sun Jiaolan, who looks different on the surface. On the surface, she looks weak and harmless, but in fact, she is very scheming. He will do whatever it takes to achieve his goals, and he especially likes to deceive others into sympathizing with him."
"So that's it." Wu Zechen suddenly realized, and then blurted out subconsciously, "If that's the case, then Liu Yingxue is the White Lotus, right?"
Xia Luotong suddenly turned around and looked at Wu Zechen with a look of astonishment. Seeing that the latter's face was serious and didn't look like he was joking at all, she finally couldn't help but covered her mouth and laughed muffledly, her shoulders trembling. Yes, but I was worried about disturbing the two people below, so I was having a hard time holding it in.
Wu Zechen was afraid that she would accidentally fall off the treetop, so he carefully protected her in his arms. Although he didn't quite understand why she was smiling, he saw her charming smile with crooked eyebrows and tiny starlight in her eyes, and his mood also changed. He rose and fell with her, and followed her with a smile.
Seeing her smiling so happily, he secretly thought that he would make her happy more in the future.
Xia Luotong laughed for a while before stopping. He glanced at the two people not far away who were already kissing each other. He couldn't help but curled his lips. He suddenly felt that his eyes were burning, so he turned around and looked at The man next to me.
Thinking of his "astonishing words" just now, she couldn't help but laugh and said: "Although Liu Yingxue is almost a white lotus, she is so passionate about you, but you evaluate her like this. I'm afraid if she hears Will he be so angry that he vomits blood on the spot?"
Unexpectedly, Wu Zechen said indifferently: "She is not worthy of the word "deep love". She chose me because of my strength and the identity and position of Princess An, not because she fell in love with me as a person. "
"Besides..." He suddenly looked deeply into her eyes and said deeply, "I can't control who she likes, but who I fall in love with is also my own business and has nothing to do with her."
Xia Luotong's heart skipped a beat when he saw such a look in his eyes. His eyes wandered unnaturally for a moment, and then he immediately continued what he had just said: "She only cares about your strength? But I looked at her. Seems quite affectionate and persistent?"
Wu Zechen sneered after hearing this, obviously full of ridicule for Liu Yingxue's "deep affection" for him.
Seeing the person in his arms looking at him curiously, he thought for a while and decided to tell her the situation in detail: "Actually, before Rong Cheng met her unexpectedly, her first choice was the prince, but the prince at that time already had someone. If she marries the crown prince, the most she can do is get the position of concubine, because the crown princess comes from the queen’s natal family, the Fengguo Duke’s Palace, so there is absolutely no way she can get that position.”
"Except for the prince, all the other princes and children of aristocratic families in the capital either have their own wives, or they are not strong enough to catch her eye. It is for this reason that she has been hesitant until she met her later. When it comes to me, I have taken a fancy to the position of Princess An, so I rely on me."
"So what she wants to marry has always been a position of power, not a certain person?" Xia Luotong was a little surprised, and was convinced when Wu Zechen nodded.
She never thought that there were such things behind her, and that Liu Yingxue had such thoughts, but even she didn't expect it.
but……
What she didn't expect even more was that the man in front of her was so calm and knew all these things clearly.
Seeing her pondering, Wu Zechen thought for a moment and then said: "However, Liu Yingxue had previously flirted with the prince several times because she had considered marrying the prince as a concubine, so now the prince is very fond of her and has expressed his thoughts openly or covertly. It’s about accepting her as a concubine.”
"Then she didn't offend the prince by rejecting him?" Xia Luotong was a little surprised.
"She did not explicitly reject the prince."
"You didn't reject the prince? Is it possible that you are still hanging on to the prince? Why?" Xia Luotong asked in surprise.
"Because she wants to leave a way out for herself. If I can't work here, she can still go back to the prince. After all, if the prince ascends the throne, the status of the concubine will naturally rise." Wu Zechen said in a calm tone, just like Liu Yingxue. His behavior could not arouse his anger at all, and Liu Yingxue was really an insignificant person to him.
He held the person in his arms and while talking to her, he entangled her soft black hair with his slender fingers, as if even a strand of hair on her body was more attractive to him than Liu Yingxue.
