Chapter 840: Empty Eyes
Lin Wan frowned slightly, and said unhappily: "This is my place, I have the final say!Can't I ask you to leave?"
Lan Ziling was speechless for a moment, walked to the table and sat down in frustration, pouted, and said, "I want to see Brother Ximen, he won't leave me alone." ”
Lin Wan smiled coldly and said, "If I hadn't agreed to take you in, he would have left you alone yesterday, do you think he would come to see you?"
A trace of injury flashed in Lan Ziling's eyes, she frowned and thought about it, and said hatefully: "You just want to be generous and tolerant in front of Brother Ximen, so that Brother Ximen can choose you as the crown princess." As he spoke, he snorted coldly and said: "But, in fact, you are just a hypocritical villain, you said in front of Brother Simon that you wanted to take me in, but now you are here to drive me away, you are too despicable!"
Lin Wan looked at Lan Ziling with wide eyes, she didn't expect her to dare to talk to herself like this. Immediately amused by Lan Ziling, he breathed a sigh of helplessness, patiently, and said kindly: "Lan Ziling, haven't you recognized your current situation?" Zhou Tianhong, Lan Ziheng, and Ximen Yuling are all looking for you, except for me, you have nowhere to go." Your brother Simon has not come to see you since yesterday, do you think he will take care of you? I don't need to take your trouble into account, and I don't need to show any generosity in front of anyone. I promised you to stay yesterday, but for the sake of women, I relented for a while. ”
Lan Ziling looked at Lin Wan in a daze, and suddenly felt a burst of despair in her heart, the woman in front of her was soft and hard, and the weather was uncertain, which made people wonder through. Originally, she thought that Lin Wan took her in yesterday completely to please Ximen Yuqing, so she thought that she had nothing to fear.
But she didn't expect that Lin Wan would say that she would leave here as soon as she came today. Moreover, when she said that she wanted to see Ximen Yuqing, Lin Wan didn't even frown, but laughed at her for not seeing the reality clearly.
Lin Wan slowly walked to Lan Ziling and sat down, looked out the window, smiled, and waited patiently for Lan Ziling's decision. Qingtong stood quietly behind Lin Wan, beware of Lan Ziling's disadvantage to Lin Wan.
Outside the window, I saw Kapok Zi and Jin Man talking passionately in the yard, Jin Man pointed to the winter buds of the apricot blossom tree for a while, and pointed to the soil under the apricot blossom tree for a while. Lin Wan secretly guessed that Jin Man must be showing off their self-brewed apricot bar to Kapok.
Lan Ziling observed Lin Wan for a long time, but it became clearer and clearer in her heart that the woman in front of her really didn't care about anything. She is not afraid of offending Lan Ziheng and Zhou Tianhong, nor is she afraid of getting into trouble and being implicated. She drove herself away, but because she didn't like herself and didn't want to help herself. She didn't care what Ximen Yuqing thought of her, and she didn't care if she could become the crown princess of Xiling Kingdom, she took her in yesterday and it was just a whim.
Lin Wan retracted his gaze, turned his head to look at Lan Ziling, and asked lightly, "Say, what are you going to do?"
Lan Ziling was stunned, lowered her head and thought about it, then raised her eyes and looked at Lin Wan seriously, and asked word by word: "I can't go back for the time being, how can you continue to let me stay here?"
Lin Wan smiled slightly, her mood was much better, she liked to talk to smart people, this Lan Ziling was much calmer than that Lan Ziyue. Nodding, Zhengse said: "If you want to stay here, it's not impossible." I'm also empty here, so it's okay for you to stay here for a few more days. But as long as you are with me for a day, you must follow my arrangement, and do not ask why, and do not make any small moves. Otherwise, I can drive you away at any time, and I will never talk another nonsense with you. ”
Lan Ziling took a deep breath, nodded slightly, and said, "I promise you, until I leave here, I will listen to you for everything." ”
Lin Wan frowned and thought for a while, and said, "From today onwards, there will definitely be several people looking for you outside." If you can't find it again, even the emperor will be in a hurry, and he will dispatch the Yulin Army and the secret guard. I am here, they will definitely not let go, even if they dare not break in openly, they will definitely send someone to secretly investigate. So, if you want to stay here, you must not be discovered by anyone. ”
Lan Ziling nodded obediently and said, "Okay, from now on, I will stay in this room and not go anywhere." ”
Lin Wan shook his head and said, "No, you will still be suspected like this." There are many eyes and ears in this Lin Xiangfu, and not all of them are my people. After a pause, he continued: "Wait a while, I will send someone to give you a disguise, and then you will change your clothes and help in this courtyard, and tell others that you are a new maid, called Xiaolan." ”
Lan Ziling frowned slightly, a little hesitant, but still nodded and said, "Okay, I agree." After a pause, he bit his lower lip and muttered, "Can you let me meet Brother Simon?"
Lin Wan smiled lightly, shook his head, and said, "You can't leave this courtyard until you decide to leave Lin Xiangfu." However, I can promise you to help you tell Prince Simon that you want to see him. He can come to see you at any time if he wants, and I won't stop him in any way. ”
Lan Ziling was stunned, her heart was cold, she knew that if she didn't take the initiative to find Ximen Yuqing, of course Ximen Yuqing would not come to see her. However, she could neither beg Lin Wan to let her out, nor could she beg Lin Wan to bring Ximen Yuqing, she could only let out a sigh of relief, nodded resignedly, and said in a low voice: "Thank you, this time, count me as owing you." ”
Lin Wan smiled slightly and said, "Okay, you can stay here with peace of mind, Qingxiang, Jinman and Yinman will take good care of you." I know that you know martial arts, and you should already know that there is more than one secret guard in my Wanxin Pavilion, so you'd better not have other thoughts. With that, he stood up and walked out the door.
Lan Ziling looked at Lin Wan's back, feeling unwilling and jealous. Why, the daughter of a prime minister, is even more arrogant than herself, a genuine princess, and even more empty-eyed than Lan Ziheng and Lan Ziyue? Why, can she, a woman younger than herself and without her own beauty, be admired by Ximen Yuqing?
Thinking of Ximen Yuqing's eyes when he looked at Lin Wan, Ximen Yuqing's obedience to Lin Wan, and Ximen Yuqing's tenderness to Lin Wan, Lan Ziling's heart ached like a knife. What made her even more unacceptable was that Lin Wan didn't even see all this in her eyes, and she didn't feel flattered.
However, Lan Ziling had to admit that the woman in front of her was indeed different from ordinary women. Lan Ziling knew that Lin Wan didn't need to take this risk, but Lin Wan still helped her, and she could see that Lin Wan was pitying her.
