The next day came the day when Liuli returned home. Although they had been restless for the past two days and had not slept well, Ji Jun and Ji Nian had to brace themselves up and pack up to welcome Liuli.
When Auntie Gui saw that the Ji sisters looked bad, she felt a little distressed and worried.
"Aunt Xu and I will help you make your makeup more delicate so it's not easy to see."
Ji Jun shook his head tiredly and said,
"Forget it, aunt, we can't hide this from Mei Lin. And after all, it's makeup. If you look carefully or observe carefully, you can definitely see the clues. If we are too deliberate, it will appear that we are guilty."
Aunt Gui thought for a moment and felt that what Ji Jun said made sense, so she nodded and said,
"Then just put on some powder and some rouge. If you don't dress up, it will show that you don't pay attention to Madam and Liuli. If Madam asks, we will say that the heat has been too strong these days, and there are maids sleeping and sleeping. It was so disturbing that we didn’t even sleep well, even if we admitted it openly, it seemed that we were open-minded and had no guilty conscience.”
After thinking about it, Aunt Gui felt that what Ji Jun said made sense.
But Ji Jun really didn't have the energy to act with them, so he simply "let it go" and loved it!
In the main hall of Yang's main courtyard, the ladies from the Huai'an Marquis Mansion and Liuli gathered together, smiling happily. Ji Jun and Ji Min were the last to arrive. When the two sisters entered, they were shocked to find that Mei Lin was there!
Not only did Meilin not look embarrassed at all, but on the contrary, she looked radiant and in high spirits.
Ji Jun's face showed surprise. Because it was so unexpected, and also because of the tension and exhaustion of the past few days, Ji Jun's surprise could not be concealed.
Ji Min's body was slightly shaken, especially when she saw Mei Lin's eyes directed at her, sinister and proud, exactly the same as when she was imprisoned in her previous life when she went to show off her power in front of her, and waves of hatred surged in her heart. , and a little bit of fear!
That was her nightmare. She thought that Mei Lin and she would not have too many interactions with each other. If they didn't like each other, they would just avoid each other. Unexpectedly, Mei Lin haunted her like a ghost, and... It gets tighter and tighter!
When Meilin saw the Ji sisters coming in, she stood up and greeted them with a smile, saying as she walked,
"You two sisters are late. Let's discuss how to punish you! How about we punish the Ji sisters with a few drinks during lunch to make amends to Liuli sister?"
Saying that, Mei Lin used her hands to pull Ji Jun and Ji Nian away.
Ji Min trembled slightly, shivered without revealing any trace, and quietly avoided it.
Mei Lin didn't care and continued to reach out and hold Ji Jun's hand. Ji Jun endured the pain in his heart and did not avoid it, letting Mei Lin's hand hold his.
Mei Lin's hands were smooth and cold, soft and boneless. She slowly rubbed Ji Jun's hands. Goosebumps appeared one after another on Ji Jun's body. She recalled the intermittent descriptions of peony and bamboo leaves when they woke up. Waves of chills.
Ji Jun felt that Mei Lin was like a spirit possessed by a snake demon. The snakes were spitting out in the air, squirming all over, exuding a dangerous aura.
It was no longer Mei Lin's hand that held Mei Lin's hand, but the long snake whose tongue was bitten off by Mei Lin! Rubbing it wetly on the back of his hand, there was a cold and putrid smell!
Ji Jun suppressed the nausea and fear in his heart and tried to maintain a calm expression. His smile was like a breeze blowing on his face, careless and fearless.
Ji Jun bowed to Yang and shook off Mei Lin's hand, then smiled and said to Liuli,
"What Sister Meilin said is that we are indeed late. But Sister Liuli, please don't be angry with us. The heat is really too hot, and we got up too late because of our inclination to sleep."
Mei Lin had no intention of letting the Ji sisters go. The look on Ji Jun and Ji Nian's eyes made Mei Lin very happy!
I will definitely pay back the pain you have caused me a thousand times!
You think this little injury can knock me down, you are really a frog in the well, you are so unskilled!
Meilin pretended to be concerned and approached Ji Jun, smiling and staring into Ji Jun's eyes again and again!
Mei Lin's smile was full of provocation and viciousness. She wanted to anger Ji Jun, or subdue him, so that this businesswoman who didn't know the heights of heaven and earth would obey her and be driven by her like Su Jin!
Ji Jun's irritable heart slowly calmed down. He smiled and looked back at Mei Lin with a playful and confident attitude.
When two strong men meet, the brave one wins! Even if there is a huge disparity in military strength, morale cannot be lowered!
Ji Min also tried to remain calm at this time. She looked away coldly without looking at Mei Lin.
When Ji Jun saw this, he felt a little at ease, out of sight and out of mind. In addition, if he was not confident at the moment, he should first hide his true strength and not show his cowardice, so as not to let his opponents catch mistakes and weaknesses.
Because of the effect of "Pu Lian", Ji Jun has a relatively strong sense of Ji Min's emotions. Ji Min is afraid!
However, Ji Min had a calm little face and said nothing, neither smiling nor angry. Even Yuyan and Yu Jue who were unaware of this could tell that Ji Min didn't take Mei Lin seriously at all!
Why! Look at people, they are so arrogant!
Meilin didn't care at all. She had seen so many glares and been humiliated since she could remember!
At most, Ji Min would ignore her, neither hitting her nor scolding her. This way, she was just scratching her head, and it didn't affect anything!
Mei Lin suddenly exclaimed,
"Hey, two sisters, what's going on? You haven't had any rest, okay? Look! Look! Why are you so haggard! What's going on? You all look older than my aunt!"
Everyone felt uncomfortable when they heard this, but due to Meilin's current status, no one dared to accuse her.
Mei Lin also knew this very well, and continued to cover her mouth in feigned surprise, as if she had discovered some great secret and said in a strange manner,
"Two sisters, look at it, why are you so old after not seeing each other for two days? Huh? Are you worried about something? Or have you encountered any difficulties? Are you still feeling comfortable? If you feel uncomfortable somewhere, you might as well Let’s talk to Madam, Sister Liuli and us. We are all sisters. Who can watch you suffer and turn a blind eye? Not one of you here will stand by and watch the difficulties of these two sisters! We You will definitely help me, right, Aunt Su?"
When Su Jin saw that Mei Lin had pointed at her, she hurriedly stepped forward and bowed slightly to Ji Jun, full of gloating,
"That's right, that's right, our wife is kind-hearted! The last thing she sees is that her family members are in trouble. Even if some people do something wrong intentionally and end up harming others and ultimately harming themselves, she will be lenient and give her a proper settlement. .Miss Ji, I heard that your maid screamed in the middle of the night and made the neighbors uneasy. I heard that she was suffering from a nightmare. Oh, this nightmare can be big or small. What if she saw something? What you see, in the end, caused trouble, wouldn't it mean that the whole government would suffer as well? How about sending them out, and I'll send you a few more smart ones to serve you and Miss Ji!"
Although Ji Jun had a smile on her face, the overwhelming resentment welling up in her heart temporarily suppressed the nausea and discomfort she felt just now. She squeezed out a few words through her teeth,
"It's not necessary for Sister Meilin and Aunt Su to worry about it. It's just that the heat was too strong and the maid was young and had nightmares. My sister and I just didn't sleep well. It doesn't matter! As for whether we watched something we shouldn't, but It’s not Aunt Su’s decision!”
Ji Min suddenly spoke coldly,
"The Marquis has long said that my son has strange power and chaos, and my wife is also aware of everything. Aunt Mu is well-informed, and the noble aunt in Danguiyuan is also knowledgeable. Is Aunt Su going to shit on their heads? ? Sister Liuli came back today, and Aunt Su said that she didn’t have these things. Is it to cause trouble for sister Liuli? "
Ji Jun, "..."
What does this force people into!
Intellectuals are swearing! His mother's!
Su Jin blushed at the irony of Ji Min's words and wanted to retort, but didn't know what to say. When he looked up, he saw Yang's unhappy expression, while Grandma Mu had a frosty look on her face. She couldn't help but shrink her head and became silent.
Mei Lin glanced at Su Jin with dissatisfaction, then leaned close to Ji Jun's ear and said,
"It's not a problem? Ji Jun, what are you pretending to be? You have to know that his poison is my honey. You think you can let "Pu Lian" bite me back, but unfortunately, you don't know that "Pu Lian" can also help I recovered from my injuries quickly!”
Ji Jun was extremely shocked. She originally thought that Mei Lin knew about Shaoyao and Bamboo Leaf's actions in advance and deliberately made noise to scare them.
However, I didn’t expect that “Pu Lian” could actually help Mei Lin heal her injuries!
Could it be that at this moment, Meilin has become like the "vampire" in the previous life movies, or like the mountain spirit monster in some ghosts? Do you need the blood of living people to nourish your skin and improve your spiritual practice and skills?
Seeing Ji Jun's hesitation and doubt, Mei Lin said gloomily,
"You, you still want to resist "Pu Lian"? Even your mother can't cure the poison of "Pu Lian"! Look, not only did I not suffer backlash, on the contrary, it helped me regain my life. I You can walk freely so quickly, and your appearance is even better than before! Jijun, think about it carefully, besides "Pu Lian", what else is so powerful? Jijun, do you want to continue to fight against me?"
Ji Jun turned his head to look at Mei Lin, and suddenly smiled at everyone. The clear light reflected the snow as brilliantly, and his heart hanging in the glass gradually fell back.
Ji Jun turned his head again, looked at Mei Lin who looked expectant and confident of winning, and whispered,
"Meilin, do you know "Pu Lian"? In addition to knowing how to write these two words, do you know the meaning of these two words together? What is your master's purpose? "Pu Lian" is not for I'm here to heal you and make you beautiful! Can you please wake up? You took it upon yourself to expose another secret of "Pu Lian" to me. I am a little more familiar with "Pu Lian". You must know that it is also from the Imperial College. Students, some people will be number one in the future, and some people will be nothing. I am the academic master who can draw inferences from one instance, and you are just a scumbag who just copied and missed the mark! You say, why shouldn’t I continue to go against you? My beauty. Sister Lin!”
After saying this, Ji Jun suddenly raised his hand to hit Mei Lin. Mei Lin was unprepared and took a step back hastily.
Ji Jun smiled disdainfully, then withdrew his hand and stroked his bun.
Over there, Su Jin made a "plop" and fainted to the ground!
