The autumn night is deep, and the trail is dark and not visible.

Lu Lu, as a lone female thief in later generations, did not lose the most basic ability to recognize the way, and brought it with her soul.

Soon, the two came to the original small house, unlocked it, closed the door, lit the lamp, and did it in one go.

Duan Mian came prepared, lit the lamp, carefully put on the cover, and turned his head to look at the indifferent Lu Lu.

He stood crookedly with his hands crooked, and his expression was thousands of miles away.

"Here you go." He handed a delicate and small box from his bosom.

Lu Lu came out in a hurry without a hand stove, so he could only habitually hold his hands and wait for Duan Mian to say something. Suddenly, seeing that he had no head or brain, he was surprised and asked, "What?" ”

"Just look at it."

"Oh." Lu Lu took it and took a look.

Well, it's such a beautiful box, it's locked, and it's shaking, and there's something in it.

"Where's the key?"

Duan Mian rarely smiled: "Aren't you an expert in lockpicking?" If you can open the lock, everything in it will be yours. ”

"Then you can tell me first, what's in it? If it's not worth it, I'm too lazy to open it. Lu Lu smiled slyly.

"You like it." Duan Mian sells a pass.

Lu Lu glanced at him, with a relaxed smile on his face, did he want to trick her? Practical joke?

"If you open it, I don't like it, and I'll punish you for losing money!" The heart of the villain of Lu Lu is placed on the bright side.

Duan Mian smiled bitterly, and sighed slightly: "Okay." ”

It's really a money fan, and he hasn't changed his true colors! A rich businesswoman can't make money at every turn, isn't it cheesy?

Lu Lucai didn't care whether it was vulgar or elegant, he lowered his head and stared at the lock seriously and intently for a while. It soon became clear that it was too simple. Did Duan Mian tease her on purpose?

Looking up, Duan Mian was behind him with his hands, the old god was there, and he looked at her with a smile on the corner of his mouth.

A possibility suddenly surged into Lu Lu's mind, and he quickly shook his head and threw it away, and stretched out his hand to him: "Borrow a tool." ”

"Hard winding?"

"That's right. Otherwise, how can I pick the lock. ”

Duan Mian made a trick, and a hard filament was added to his palm and handed over.

Lu Lu took it unceremoniously, divided it by two, and picked the lock open with a little fiddling. Busy opening. Almost blinded.

Inside the box was a pile of fine pearls that were sparkling and shiny. There is also a step shake. It was the gift that Gu Yao of Bao'an Temple coaxed her to see.

She was surprised again, raised her eyes and asked, "Are you cleaned up?" Really give it to me? ”

"Hmm. Don't you like it? ”

"Yes, I like it, but ......" gift is a bit expensive. Accept the inappropriateness.

Duan Mian stepped forward. Reaching out and picking out a pair of pearl earrings from the box, he said, "This is the latest style of the best jade workshop in the capital." This is not something Gu Yao sent you. ”

"You picked it?" Lu Lu was shocked.

Duan Mian's face was a little hot. His eyes dodged, and he whispered, "Hmm." ”

"Alas!" Lu Lu sighed, reluctant to take a look at the treasures in the box. Closed, put his hands forward, and said sincerely: "Thank you Duan Shizi, but I can't accept it." ”

Duan Mian's expression remained unchanged, and he asked calmly: "Don't like it?" ”

"Like. But it can't be collected. ”

"Why?"

"Why?" Lu Lu glared and smiled bitterly: "Why should I accept the expensive gift you sent for no reason?" ”

Duan Mian was speechless for a moment, and said domineeringly: "No reason, I want to send it." ”

"But I don't want to take it." Lu Lu got on the bar with him.

Duan Mian's face changed slightly, and he said lightly: "The things I sent out have never been taken back, you don't want it, just throw it away." ”

"You're lost." Lu Lu handed it over.

Duan Mian took it, didn't look at it, and threw it on the ground.

'Snap' fell to the ground, but fortunately the box was tightly covered, otherwise the pearls would have rolled all over the ground.

"Oh, you're so embarrassed?" Lu Lu was distressed to death.

With so many plump pearls, any one can be worth a lot of money! Why didn't he really throw it away without blinking?

Duan Mian doesn't care, he has a wealthy family since he was a child, and money is really something outside his body to him. As for pearls, jewelry, etc., I won't take a second look, so if you lose it, you will lose it!

"I'm afraid of you." Lu Lu loves money, so he had to pick up the box and pouted: "Can't I accept it?" ”

Duan Mian's face softened, and he hooked his lips and smiled: If you accept it early, it's over, it's a waste of time!

Brushing off the dust, Lu Lu hugged the box tightly and asked, "Is there anything else?" ”

"Yes." Duan Mian replied simply.

"Hurry up."

Duan Mian pondered his words and asked slowly, "Third Highness, what do I tell you?" ”

"How do you know?" As soon as the words came out, Lu Lu bit the tip of his tongue.

Duan Mian smiled lightly: "Of course I know." ”

"Your eyeliner is really long, huh?" Lu Lu's tone was sour, and her every move was in the eyes of others.

Duan Mian hid the surprise in his heart, did not admit or deny it, and only raised his eyebrows to her: "Say." ”

"Huh? Didn't say anything. It's just casual chatting. Lu Lu lowered his eyes carelessly.

Duan Mian stared at her perfunctory demeanor and didn't speak for a long time.

There was silence for a long time, and the lights in the miscellaneous house gradually dimmed.

Duan Mian walked over and turned on the wick, and said, "Miss Lu, don't hide it. Ling Zun secretly contacted Lin Gongzi, the secret envoy of the Third Highness, and also set a trap to ambush me when I stayed in Yicheng, which was originally an unforgivable sin. However, in view of Ling Zunyi's status as the richest man in Cheng Cheng and his actual undecided position, let him go. Moreover, we once wanted to bring him over for the use of His Second Highness. ”

Lu Lu Huo Ran raised his eyes.

Why do you want to tell her such confidential things? She doesn't want to listen!

"You ......"

Duan Mian waved his hand not to give her a chance to speak, and continued: "It's just that the affairs are complicated, and before we can act, I didn't expect His Royal Highness to come to Yicheng in person and stay in your mansion. Presumably, Ling Zun won't be a wall grass again this time, right? He's serving the Third Highness with an iron heart, right? ”

Lu Lu exhaled lightly and responded listlessly: "Yes, you guys didn't give some sweetness for a long time, and you didn't come to contact." The Lu Mansion was panicked for many days and wavered. His Royal Highness Meng San can afford it, personally ask and win over in person, and earn enough face, of course, he will take refuge in the three princes. ”

"Alas!" Duan Mian sighed slightly, and said softly: "It's not that we don't contact, but ......"

How could he say to Lu Lu: The second prince thought that the relationship between the Duan Mansion and the Lu Mansion was a certainty, so he didn't take the initiative to deal with it? Are they still waiting for the landing mansion to be forced to marry in Beijing, and then the two families will marry and be automatically promoted to teammates?

No one expected that the Lu Mansion had not yet gone to Beijing to force marriage, there was an accident in Bao'an Temple, and then the three princes secretly appeared in Yicheng? It's all a mess! It's a mess!

Scratching his head irritably, Duan Mian sighed again and said, "So, Miss Lu, if you want to protect the Lu Mansion, it's up to you." ”

"Me? Am I so critical? Lu Lu's eyes widened and he didn't understand.

Duan Mian pondered slightly, and said step by step: "Ling Zun threw himself into the third prince, if you can use it for the second prince and balance the relationship between the two sides, wouldn't it be both." ”

"Oh?" Lu Lu reacted, and said with a smile: "That is to say, both sides of the Lu Mansion are betting on treasures." The three princes won, and the Lu Mansion did not suffer a loss, and was one of the heroes; The second prince won, because I acted as a hidden stake, so I could offset the mistake of my father and brother in standing on the wrong team, and it wouldn't be too deep? That's what it means, right? (To be continued.) )
