Lin Wanwan's heart trembled, a look of solemnity flashed across her shining eyes, and her expression suddenly became serious. She looked at Xu Jiaojiao and confirmed again: "You mean, it was Su Jin who asked you to come?"
"Didn't he say that you were drunk and clamoring for..." Xu Jiaojiao said, and suddenly realized something was wrong. Her expression changed drastically, and she looked at her with wide eyes, full of surprise.
Lin Wanwan closed her eyes, her slightly frowning eyebrows seemed to be stained with a layer of sadness. She sighed softly, "I was clamoring to find you, but I kept calling you 'Jiaojiao'. Not Mei Niang."
Xu Jiaojiao had obviously guessed it, but she still couldn't help but ask: "You mean he knows?" But after thinking about it, she still felt that there were many doubts and it seemed unreasonable, so she asked in confusion, "But he How do you know that the 'Jiaojiao' in your mouth is me?"
The name Xu Jiaojiao was different from that of Lin Wanwan. Everyone in the world and even the royal families of various countries knew very well that Shen Qingqiu, the lord of Beiluo Shimen City, had no children and only had a niece whom he regarded as a treasure. Her surname was Lin and her nickname was Wanwan.
And because Shuijing Villa is located on an island, it is isolated from the outside world all year round, and only interacts with people in the world, so few people know the name Xu Jiaojiao except for the disciples sent to the island to practice martial arts.
Lin Wanwan said nothing, but the look in her eyes became more and more complicated. When did he start to know that Mei Niang was hers? Knowing her purpose clearly, why did he keep Xu Jiaojiao by his side and let her pass on information for him? And how did he know the name Xu Jiaojiao?
After being silent for a long time, Lin Wanwan held the bowl with her hand. A bright light flashed across her somewhat confused eyes, and her eyes suddenly became clear. She met Xu Jiaojiao's confused gaze and slowly uttered two words, "Rong Sui" .”
"No, no, he, why would he tell Su Jin?"
As soon as she heard this name, Xu Jiaojiao couldn't sit still and stuttered unconsciously when she spoke. It was obvious that she didn't want to believe that what Lin Wanwan said was true.
Lin Wanwan sighed. Although Rong Sui only got along with Xu Jiaojiao for less than half a year before returning to Beiming on orders, she was not blind. When Xu Jiaojiao looked at Rong Sui, there was always light in her eyes. After Rong Sui left, she looked forward to Rong Sui's letters every month. Even if Rong Sui said very little to her in the letter, it could make her happy for several days.
Compared to Xu Jiaojiao's reaction, Lin Wanwan seemed much calmer. Rong Sui has been with her for nine years, so she naturally trusts him and knows his character well. There must be a reason for him to do this.
There are always some secrets in everyone's heart. They don't want to tell others. It's not because they don't trust them, but because they can't express them. Perhaps in their hearts, they have never discovered it.
So apart from being a little surprised when she figured it out just now, she didn't have any emotional ups and downs.
But Xu Jiaojiao is different. She is stubborn and will feel that this is a betrayal. How important Rong Sui is to her, how sad she feels, and she will definitely find it difficult to accept it for a while.
Lin Wanwan thought about it carefully and then said slowly: "Didn't you write him a letter when you left, telling him that you were going to Nanling? Apart from you and me, Rong Sui also knew about this matter. No one else knows, not even my uncle and aunt, they just think you are leaving a letter and running away to experience. And he and Su Jin have always kept in touch——"
"Impossible! Why did Rong Sui betray us?!" Xu Jiaojiao categorically interrupted Lin Wanwan's words. She frowned and her eyes turned red.
Lin Wanwan sighed and followed suit: "If he really betrayed us, with Su Jin's character, you would have been tortured to death by him long ago. Su Jin's thoughts are so deep, do you think he really has no feelings for you? Do you doubt it? Rong Sui probably thought about this before revealing your identity as the eldest lady of Shuijing Villa to Su Jin. Su Jin naturally would not confront Shuijing Villa at this juncture in Nanling, so he did not He will attack you and let you stay by his side."
After hearing Lin Wanwan's soft analysis, Xu Jiaojiao breathed a sigh of relief. When she thought that Rong Sui was thinking about her, her heart felt as sweet as honey.
Soon the sweetness in her heart touched the corners of her eyes and eyebrows. She raised her eyebrows and smiled, "So that's it. Let me just say, Rong Sui will not betray us."
Seeing her happy smile, Lin Wanwan shook her head half amused and half helpless, and then clarified the key points again. She fell into deep thought again, her eyes becoming more and more blurred.
Su Jin and Rong Sui had a tacit understanding when they were in Fomalhau, as if they could understand each other's thoughts with just one look, so she didn't feel weird knowing that they were still in contact, but Why did Rong Sui hide it from him? Over the years, he has never mentioned a single word about Su Jin in his letters.
She had doubts when the spies were eliminated. She didn't understand why Rong Sui would put his people into Beiming's spies. Now that she thought about it, it turned out to be because of Su Jin. She sighed secretly. It seemed that she had been in Su Jin's trap for a long time, but she just didn't know it.
Rong Sui has been helping Su Jin behind the scenes. She can understand. After all, Su Jin has the ability to fulfill his long-cherished wish, but why did they hide it from her? She always felt that there was an indescribable subtlety in all this. The two of them would definitely not join forces just for one Nanling. What else were they plotting, and why had they been hiding it from her?
After a while, the confusion in Lin Wanwan's eyes gradually faded, replaced by a hint of worry, "Jiaojiao, I always feel that things are not that simple. Su Jin and Rong Sui must be hiding something from me."
Seeing her worried look, Xu Jiaojiao said with relief: "Don't think so much. Anyway, Fomalhau and Su Jin are already on the same boat now, and Rong Sui is also there. We just need to ensure that this boat If it doesn’t sink, everything goes well.”
“What kind of ship is unsinkable?”
As soon as Xu Jiaojiao finished speaking, Yiyi and Longshuang walked in from the outside with smiles.
Lin Wanwan and Xu Jiaojiao looked at each other, and then Xu Jiaojiao remembered that she had forgotten to close the door when she asked the maid to heat up the hangover soup.
Fortunately, the courtyard where Lin Wanwan lived was extremely quiet and there were usually no people around. Otherwise, if the conversation between the two of them had been overheard by others, it would have been a big problem.
Lin Wanwan gave her a deep look with a smile on her face. Xu Jiaojiao touched her nose guiltily, then she changed her expression and smiled at the two people who came in: "Oh, I was just asking about Wanwan. , when shall we go to the lake?"
"Lake tour? Okay, I haven't gone to the lake for a long time!" After hearing this, they clapped their hands excitedly.
Xu Jiaojiao stared at them and looked around, and when she saw that both of them were empty-handed, she said curiously: "Hey, didn't you come over this morning and said you were going out to buy things? Didn't you also ask if you would like to bring some pastries from Xiangcuilou to me and Wanwan? ?Where are the pastries?”
One by one, they pouted and said somewhat depressedly: "Oh, forget it. I'll see the young master when I walk downstairs of Xiangcui Building -"
"Yiyi!" Long Shuang interrupted Yiyi's words, and Yiyi immediately covered his mouth and laughed dryly.
Xu Jiaojiao was even more curious now. She looked at Long Shuang's slightly frowning brows and then at Yiyi's covered mouth. She decided to start from Yiyi, so she walked over and pulled away Yiyi's hand. , smiled and coaxed: "Yiyi, you never hide anything from me. What's wrong, Master?"
