"Son..."
Yiyi looked at Cong Shuang helplessly, and saw that Cong Shuang shook his head slightly towards her, and then looked at Mei Niang looking at her expectantly. She struggled for a while, her heart skipped a beat, and she couldn't help but speak out. , "The young master took another young lady to Xiangcui Tower for dinner today, and I heard from people passing by that she was not the same person as yesterday!"
Xu Jiaojiao was startled and looked at Long Shuang, who sighed softly, and then their eyes unconsciously turned to Lin Wanwan. I saw her scooping up the hangover soup in her hand, drinking it leisurely, with no ripples on her face, as if Yiyi's words had no impact on her at all, with a calm look.
Long Shuang opened his mouth, hesitated for a moment, and then asked tentatively: "Sister Wan, you..."
"What's wrong with me?" Lin Wanwan finished the last sip of the sobering soup. Her bright and bright eyes contained a faint smile, without flickering or avoiding, and she calmly looked at the slightly worried gaze of her upper body.
Seeing her looking at him calmly, Long Shuang suddenly felt that her look was inexplicably distressing. She considered her words and asked: "You and the Young Master——"
She smiled, her eyes curved into a beautiful crescent shape, and she smiled under the puzzled gazes of several people: "You may have some misunderstandings. I originally thought it was just some rumors from the outside, and there is no need to explain. The one who is in the clear will be cleared up." , I didn’t expect that even you would misunderstand me.”
She said, put on her coat and got out of bed, put the bowl on the table, her words and deeds seemed very calm, and there was still a slight smile deep in her eyes, "Young Master has arranged some special tasks for me. Me, but the relationship between me and him is not what you think, many things are just for the execution of tasks."
Hearing this, Long Shuang suddenly smiled, nodded and said, "It turns out I was overthinking."
Yiyi was a little discouraged and muttered: "Ah, so it's like this. My happiness was in vain."
Xu Jiaojiao snorted coldly and said disdainfully: "It's not uncommon for our family to be so good at Wanwan. Not everyone is like that Le Yao, thinking about how to please the young master every day."
Hearing what Xu Jiaojiao said, she remembered something again and said with a smile: "I just met Le Yao. She also came back from outside. Her face is indeed not very good."
"Deserved it."
Xu Jiaojiao didn't like Le Yao ever since she entered Tianshu Pavilion. Le Yao always looked arrogant, which made her very unhappy. In the past, she had said a few words due to the relationship between the pavilion and Lin Wan. After Wan arrived, she didn't bother to talk to him.
As for Long Shuang and Yiyi, they could still chat with Le Yao for a few words. Ever since they found out that she had tripped up Lin Wanwan in front of the young master, they gradually distanced themselves from her. Will nod and pass.
The girls were talking to each other happily, when a man's cough sounded outside the door, and then Ziyu was heard saying outside the door: "Miss Yue Wan, the master invites you to come over."
Several girls looked at each other. Didn't the young master take the girls to dinner in Xiangcui Tower not long ago? Back so soon?
Lin Wanwan wanted to ask Ziyu what he wanted from her, but after thinking about it, with Ziyu's personality, she probably wouldn't say a word no matter how much she asked, so she didn't bother to ask, and said to him: "I know, I Just change your clothes and go.”
So not long after, Lin Wanwan stood at the door of Su Jingqian's study, and she knocked on the door symbolically.
Su Jingqian was immersed in writing something on the desk when he heard a knock on the door and said to her without raising his head: "Here? Sit down."
Seeing that she didn't move for a long time, he raised his head and looked at her with a half-smile, "What? Are you planning to stand at the door and talk to me?"
Lin Wanwan had no intention of answering his irrelevant questions. There was a cold look in her shining eyes, and she reminded her in a cold voice: "If there is something wrong with Lord Dongchen, let's keep it short."
The moment Su Jingqian put down his pen, his eyes darkened a bit. He quietly stood up and walked to the tea table to sit down. He scooped the freshly brewed tea into the teacup and smiled at her and said, "Come here and taste it." Taste, this is Fomalhaut's tea, and see if it suits your taste."
The ice in Lin Wanwan's eyes seemed to be shaken, but the complicated look was quickly suppressed. She slightly curled her red lips and smiled coldly and distantly, "It seems that Lord Dongchen is such a noble person and forgets things. , in this case, I don’t mind saying it again, and I hope that Lord Dongchen will not come to me again if there is nothing serious in the future. Farewell."
"Lin Wanwan." Su Jingqian didn't look at her. He gently turned the white jade teacup in his hand with his slender fingers and reminded him unhurriedly, "It seems you have also forgotten. What did you promise me that day?"
Lin Wanwan paused, frowned and asked, "What do you want?"
"From today onwards, come to my study for three hours every day and read books." Su Jingqian's lips curved into a faint smile, with a trace of undisguised sarcasm in his eyes, "Since you are so free, how can I Luo Huaizhou went to have a drink and listen to a show, I believe three hours is not harmful to you."
Lin Wanwan's fingers hanging by her sides had already clenched into fists as he taunted her word by word. She forced herself to calm down, but when his cold words struck like sharp knives, the surging blood and blood... It all flows back into my heart.
She turned around angrily and glared at him, gritted her teeth and said, "Su Jin, don't go too far!"
He glanced at her lazily, the contempt in his eyes was like a sharp knife, as if he wanted to tear apart her body piece by piece, "That day, you said you would study hard, could it be that you Beiluo?" Does the master also like to go back on his word?"
She looked at him coldly, her sharp eyes like sharp ice thorns, as if she would pierce him in the next moment.
Su Jingqian raised his eyebrows, not caring about the coldness and anger in her eyes. He took a sip of tea lightly, and the thin red lips were stained by the tea, and they were filled with a disturbing color. The words that came out of those lips were extremely cold.
"Lin Wanwan, I even gave you a secret edict. Since we are exchanging interests, based on your attitude, I now doubt whether your Beiluo Sect is sincere in surrendering."
Courtesy first, then fighting, she thought, she knew the reason why he came to her.
As if she had long been accustomed to the bone-chilling chill in her heart, Lin Wanwan lowered her eyes gently. When she raised her eyes again, there were no waves or ripples in her calm eyes, and all her emotions were like clouds of the past, disappearing. There was an aura of indifference and coldness all over her body, as if she had built an invisible barrier, making it difficult for people to approach.
"King Dongchen, there is no need to provoke me with words, I will just learn."
She walked towards Su Jingqian step by step. It was clear that she was getting closer to him with every step, but she felt that she was getting farther and farther away from him with every step. There seemed to be thousands of mountains and rivers between them, and an incalculable amount of time stretched across them.
She took out two tokens from her sleeves and placed them on the tea table in front of him. With a smile on her red lips and frivolous eyes, she gently scratched from one token to another with her index finger, "Let's Let me guess, does Lord Dongchen want this Flying Flower Order, or this Moon Wanling Order? Or -" She suddenly approached Su Jingqian and looked directly into Su Jingqian's eyes, which was very close at hand, with a mocking look in her expression. , "You want both?"
Su Jingqian was stunned for a moment when she approached, and then suddenly his expression calmed down. He looked at her with a half-smile and said nothing, but his eyes shone with unknown depth.
She chuckled to herself, and the voice was filled with a hint of coolness but was particularly pleasant to the ear, "Isn't it that King Dongchen's appetite is too big?"
Su Jingqian slowly raised a smile with unknown meaning, looked away for a moment, picked up the Flying Flower Ling, rubbed it with his fingertips a few times with great interest, and said in a deep voice: "The Moon Wan Ling is not something that others can use. You’d better keep it for yourself.”
"So, Lord Dongchen can rest assured?"
Lin Wanwan narrowed her eyes and stared at him. The smile on her lips had long since disappeared when Su Jingqian picked up the Flying Flower Ling. She grabbed the Moon Wan Ling and put it into her sleeve, and reminded her coldly: "No matter you and Rong Sui is plotting something, don't forget you promised me not to embarrass him."
Su Jingqian suddenly raised his eyes and looked at her with an unpredictable expression. He looked at her quietly for a long time before he smiled clearly. Something seemed to flash in the depths of his pupils, but it disappeared quickly, "Shu, I have already Put it on the desk, you can read it yourself, and if you don’t understand, just ask me.”
