Fang Xin secretly promised this. A few years ago, Chen Ling'er wouldn't have even thought about it.
From the first day she entered Baihua House, the whole Luoyang knew that Mr. Bai spent a lot of money to kiss Fangze. In the following years, Miss Chen Ling'er did not receive any other guests. There are also drunken guests who want to see the true appearance of this Ling'er girl, but they are always stopped at the last minute.
In the past few years, she had become accustomed to the noise of the brothel. The room upstairs was specially prepared for her by Bai Shuyu. She spent most of her time in that room, sorting out the messy information with Bai Shuyu. Even the madam didn't know that Chen Linger's status in Baihua Tower was higher than hers.
Bai Shuyu always looks like an expert in love in front of outsiders, but Chen Ling'er knows that Bai Shuyu has never even touched a girl's hand in these years. The two of them were in the same room, and Bai Shuyu's eyes never left the files on the table.
He is very serious about what he does, and most women like serious men.
As the days passed, the child who was originally a little immature gradually grew up, his eyebrows became more and more handsome, his voice changed from the hoarseness during the voice change period to magnetic, and the originally skinny and thin body became taller and more heroic. When he usually walks on the streets of Luoyang, the women he passes by always look back at him.
In the past five years, Bai Shuyu didn't seem to have raised his head to look at her, but she kept looking at Bai Shuyu, watching him grow from immature to mature, and watching him transform into her favorite person step by step.
Chen Ling'er accompanied Bai Shuyu in the "oiran and benefactor" drama for five years. Bai Shuyu was able to figure it out, but Chen Ling'er got involved.
At the beginning, Chen Ling'er chose Bai Shuyu to give herself a place to settle down. Later, she felt a little unsatisfied and wanted more. Wanting revenge and wanting to stay with this man for the rest of his life.
But the appearance of Jade broke his fantasy.
Chen Ling'er knew Bai Shuyu. He had seen too many women who cheated on him, and he had no resistance to the cold and glamorous type like Jade. In fact, in front of Jade, not only men will fall? That cold jade-carved face was not as soft as an ordinary beauty, but had a sharpness that even ordinary men could not match.
Bai Shuyu was already fascinated by Jade when he saw it for the first time. Even Bai Shuyu himself didn't know this, but Chen Ling'er saw it clearly.
Lian Rong was helping Chen Ling'er add tea and water. Chen Ling'er was holding a brush in one hand and staring at the file in front of her blankly.
Lian Rong asked in a low voice: "Miss Ling'er."
Seemingly waking up the dreamer, Chen Ling'er turned to look at Lian Rong and asked, "What's the matter?"
"The girl seems to be thinking about something, so lost in thought."
Chen Ling'er smiled, shook her head and said, "I didn't think about anything."
Lian Rong put down the teapot, leaned over and said, "I can tell what the girl is thinking."
"I really didn't think anything of it, Lianrong, stop guessing."
"You are thinking about Third Young Master and Jade Girl, right?"
Chen Ling'er was a little surprised and asked, "How did you tell?" After asking, she regretted it, which was equivalent to admitting it.
Lian Rong said earnestly: "Girl, I've seen it from the day you entered the Bai family. You and the third young master have been together in Baihua House for five years. My young master has not thought about that, but girl, you must have thought about it. ,Right?"
Chen Ling'er remained silent.
Lian Rong said in embarrassment: "Girl, I am an outsider, I can see clearly... My third son said that he will never treat you badly in this life, girl, but I can hear that... there is no admiration in his words."
Chen Ling'er smiled bitterly: "He is no longer a child now. He should have his own ideas about who he likes."
"I'm a servant, so it's hard to say anything. Girl, please be patient. It wasn't that kind of relationship from the beginning, and it won't last for a few years. I'm not saying this to fan the flames. I just hope that girl, you can see clearly and don't be bitter. wait."
Chen Ling'er's smile became more and more bitter: "With a body like my own, I don't dare to ask for anything. It would be great if I can repay my kindness in this life."
Lian Rong said solemnly: "Girl, don't think so. Your contribution to the Bai family has long been enough to repay your gratitude." Realizing that she had said the wrong thing, Lian Rong hurriedly changed her words: "I am
Too angry. "
Chen Ling'er asked: "Can't you be more angry with your young master? Or Jade?"
"My young master!" Lian Rong simply said what he was thinking, "Since he doesn't admire you, why bother to take you with him? Since someone cares about you, you should respond to this concern, even if you refuse in person? My young master is so Smart, I don’t believe he can’t guess the girl’s thoughts.”
Chen Ling'er shook her head: "You can't guess."
…
Li Fenglan was a little angry and a little crazy.
She couldn't figure it out: Was she too kind? How could someone make strange requests for themselves? Should we act more ruthlessly in the future? There are always people who care about food but not fights.
"Li Fenglan, you have to promise me something."
The woman in front of me, Li Fenglan, has met twice before. The first time they met, they competed in Qinggong, and Li Fenglan lost. The second time they met, they competed in Qinggong again, and Li Fenglan won.
Now the woman was leaning against a locust tree covered in blood. She looked very weak. There was no blood on her face and even her lips were white.
Having fallen to this level, this woman's tone is still overbearing.
Zhu Mingyu Hubo had never seen this woman, and Xu Qingchen and Linghan had never seen her before. After they came down from Zhongnan Mountain, they thought of going to Senior Brother Zhu Mingyu's Taoist Temple to express their gratitude. After two days of traveling, they met this woman at the foot of the mountain before entering the Taoist Temple. From the look of her, she seemed to be waiting here specially.
When they first met, before Li Fenglan could be surprised, the woman asked the above sentence.
Li Fenglan felt angry all over, and she laughed angrily: "I said, did you have a brain injury? Did you fall off a cliff and break your brain? I'm kind enough even if I don't kill you. Now, you’re making conditions for me just after we met? Sister, doesn’t it comply with the rules of the world?”
Amber asked in a low voice: "Sister Lan, who is this person?"
"The one who competes with me in Qinggong."
Zhu Mingyu and Hu Hu suddenly realized, but Xu Qingchen and Ling Han were still confused.
The woman became weaker and weaker, and could hardly open her eyes: "...Only you can help me..."
"What's wrong with you?!" Li Fenglan finally went crazy, "Why should I save you?! You want to kill me, okay? What's wrong with each of you? You were all injured when we first met. Did you tell me that? Just two sentences and you want to kill me! Do you want to ask for help? Is this the attitude of asking for help?! It’s completely unreasonable! Am I a person who is easy to bully?! What?! You also have to promise me a hundred Something?!" Kan Shula
"A thousand...a thousand will do..."
"You think I'm idle! Let's go!"
With that said, they continued up the mountain, ignoring the woman.
Amber asked in a low voice: "If you don't care about her, she will die, right?"
Li Fenglan closed her eyes and said, "Mr. Dongguo and Wolf, she was going to kill me. What should I do to save her? Let her fend for herself."
After walking a little further, Li Fenglan opened the car curtain and looked at her. The woman had leaned against the tree and closed her eyes. She was obviously exhausted.
Li Fenglan stamped her feet angrily. She hated herself and hated herself for being so soft-hearted. If I hadn't saved the seriously injured short-lived ghost, I wouldn't have been sad for several days.
She said to Amber impatiently: "Amber, take her to the car."
"Oh." Amber responded, jumped out of the carriage, and hugged the woman over.
The woman was hit by a sword in the abdomen, but her organs were not damaged. She is now unconscious due to excessive blood loss. Li Fenglan and Linghan helped the woman bandage her wounds, and her breathing became much calmer.
Linghan wiped the blood on her hands and asked, "Feng Lan, who is she?"
Li Fenglan briefly talked about the two competitions.
Ayana frowned and asked, "This is strange. What happened to her? Do you have to come to save her? Ask your own enemy?"
Li Fenglan said helplessly: "What kind of enemy... Her master competed with Aunt Zhou and lost. He was petty and vengeful. Almost twenty years later, he asked his two apprentices to come to us for revenge. That's all, her master , she, and her brother, I don’t even know their names.”
Ayana nodded thoughtfully: "There are still many weirdos in the world, so what are you going to do with her?"
"It's good to help her heal her injuries. I don't care whether they live or die. Her brother is not with her. I think the two brothers and sisters are in some kind of trouble. I feel that she has been following us all the way. She must be looking for an opportunity to attack. Jade years ago He was poisoned, I suspect it was them too."
The woman remained unconscious and did not wake up until she reached the Taoist temple of fifth senior brother Zhu Mingyu.
Zhu Mingyu's fifth senior brother is called Chu Jiangxiu. Among Zhang Chengqing's disciples, he has the most profound understanding of Taoism. A few years ago, he went down the mountain and built a Taoist temple of his own, called Zhenyang Temple, which was very famous in the local area. Zhenyang Temple seems to be doing some rituals today. When Li Fenglan and his party arrived, the Taoist temple was full of people from the mountains and was very lively.
They stopped the carriage at the door. Seeing that the driver was Zhu Mingyu, a young woman hurriedly came forward to greet him. She made a Taoist gesture and said, "I've seen my uncle."
Zhu Mingyu replied to the Taoist priest (completely forgetting that he had already returned to secular life): "No need to be too polite... Caiying, what are you doing in the temple? So many people?"
"There is a big family in the town at the foot of the mountain who has built an ancestral hall and specially invited my master to perform a ritual ceremony."
Zhu Mingyu nodded and said, "There is an injured girl in our car, Caiying, please put her in your bedroom first."
"I understand...Uncle Master, please go to the guest room and wait for a while. Master is quite busy at this time."
"OK."
Li Fenglan and his party waited in the guest room for more than half an hour before the rituals in the Taoist temple ended.
A Taoist priest with a goatee walked into the guest room. Zhu Mingyu hurriedly stood up and saluted: "Fifth Senior Brother, the God of Infinite Blessings."
The Taoist priest with the goatee also returned the greeting: "Little junior brother, I am blessed with infinite blessings."
After the two of them saluted, Zhu Mingyu introduced to everyone: "This is my fifth senior brother, Chu Jiangxiu. Senior brother, these are all my friends, this girl Li Fenglan of the Xianren Hall, she is Amber, the leader of the Thorn Clan Xu Qingchen Xu , thorns of silver light are contained in the silk."
Chu Jiangxiu said with a smile: "Oh, I have admired you for a long time."
Li Fenglan clasped her fists and said, "I came to Zhenyang Temple this time to thank Taoist Master Chu for helping me a few days ago."
Chu Jiangxiu waved his hand and said, "In other words, my senior brother Mingyu and I won't talk about this. Mingyu, you have made a lot of achievements in the world recently. I always hear people mention you."
"It's a last resort."
Chu Jiangxiu said generously: "I am very happy that you can come. As for thanking you, there is no need. My Zhenyang Temple is not a small place. You can stay here for a few more days."
Li Fenglan smiled and said, "I won't bother you anymore, we have to go to Huazhou."
"Going to Huazhou? Lao Qi, are you going to your house?"
"yes."
Chu Jiangxiu said with a smile: "In the first few years, you always walked around Huazhou wherever you went. Why do you dare to go home now?"
Zhu Mingyu explained: "Brother, actually... I have returned to secular life."
Chu Jiangxiu looked incredulous: "You have returned to secular life? Master is willing to let you go?"
"I can't help it, my family is urging me hard."
"Has your family found a wife for you?"
Zhu Mingyu pulled Hu Huo and said to Chu Jiangxiu, "Senior brother, that's her."
Amber looked shy and whispered, "I've met Fifth Senior Brother."
Chu Jiangxiu was shocked at first, then horrified, and finally he was so surprised that he clapped his hands and said loudly: "Your name is Amber? That Lion Guanyin Amber?"
Amber was even more embarrassed.
