Chapter Ninety-Nine: Intercession
Although he knew that Lu Qinghuan would ask him this question one day, Pei Yuan couldn't help but feel a little apprehensive, because before contacting her, he did come with a purpose.
Looking at the moonlight, Lu's gentle and round cheeks, as well as those clear eyes, staring at him for a moment, Pei Yuan didn't know how to speak.
After a long time, he sighed lightly and said in a low voice: "I don't deny it, before I came, I wanted to get through you and win over the Cui clan......"
And sure enough, it was! Lu Qinghuan's heart was slightly cold, his expression stiffened for a moment, and he looked at Pei Yuan's incomparably handsome face, and his heart suddenly hurt. She retracted her gaze, trying to hide the loss in her eyes, but she heard Pei Yuan's voice ring again.
"But ......"
I never knew that wording would be such a difficult thing! Pei Yuan weighed and weighed before trying to say what he wanted to express completely: "When I fell in love with you, I forgot all this......"
The night is quiet and cool, and the air seems to be wafting with a faint fragrance of flowers, which is pleasant. Lu Qinghuan was stunned, she didn't expect Pei Yuan to say that!
He didn't hide it, he didn't explain, he didn't say anything to defend himself, just a simple sentence, but it made Lu Qinghuan's momentary loss just now disappear.
He said that when he fell in love with her, he forgot all about it.
Yes, only when you really love someone, you will get carried away, and you only have each other in your eyes, isn't it?
Lu Qinghuan was stunned for a few seconds, then suddenly showed his teeth and chuckled, turned his eyes to look at Pei Yuan's eyes, firm and resolute, with resolute sincerity, and said slowly: "I believe you." β
For a while, the night was quieter and cooler, but the relationship between the two was closer. Maybe only a broken confession can be exchanged for unbridled trust!
Finally solved the long-buried doubts in my heart. Lu Qinghuan's gloomy mood also suddenly brightened, and he had a good night's sleep.
At the beginning of the day, Lu Qinghuan was in his sleep, but was woken up by a noisy cry.
She couldn't help but frown. When he opened his sleepy eyes, he looked at the rosary beads that rushed into his room, his face full of tears, and said in surprise: "What's wrong with you?" β
The rosary's eyes were red at the moment, and she couldn't breathe when she cried. While crying, he said intermittently: "Yes...... Yang Dalang...... He...... Whining...... He was caught......"
"Huh?" Lu Qinghuan looked at the rosary suspiciously, why was Yang Dalang arrested in just one night, was Pei Yuan's movements too fast?
But soon, she calmed down, and the rosary rushed into her room like this, not just to convey the news, she reacted like this, I am afraid that she came to intercede with her.
Really. After the rosary finished speaking, he suddenly bent his knees, knelt in front of Lu Qinghuan's bed, kowtowed, and said, "Ask the lady...... Save Yang Dalang...... He was wronged! β
Lu Qinghuan looked at the rosary silently and did not speak.
Seeing that Lu Qinghuan didn't react, the rosary became even more anxious, knelt on the ground and moved a few steps forward, closer to her, pulled her wrist, cried and pleaded: "Please, lady!" Pei Yushi is so fond of you. I will definitely listen to you, you go and save him! β
Looking at the crying rosary, although Lu Qinghuan was a little unbearable, she was a little reluctant to say what she said. Even more heartbroken, she withdrew her somewhat painful hand that was caught by the rosary, stared into her eyes and said slowly: "You let me save him?" Why? If he is not guilty, why did Pei Yushi arrest him? β
The rosary was slightly stunned, and she was speechless for a while for Lu Qinghuan's cold answer. After a long while, he cried, "I was wrong...... Lady, please...... HeβHe's really not going to kill...... Yang Dalang is a good person! β
"Then your lady will kill someone, won't she?" It was the first time for Lu Qinghuan to be so disappointed in her.
From the first day she came to this world, what Lu Qinghuan felt was the care of the rosary and others, which also made her, who had never had relatives, feel warm.
But that doesn't mean she'll be stupid and at the mercy of others.
The rosary obviously didn't expect Lu Qinghuan to say this, she looked at Lu Qinghuan blankly, her lips squirmed, but she didn't speak.
"If I save him, who will save me?" Lu Qinghuan sighed, closed his eyes, no longer looked at the face of the rosary, and said softly: "You go, I can't do what you ask for!" β
"Lady......" The rosary looked at Lu Qinghuan in disbelief, even her eyes were blurred with tears, and she forgot to wipe it off, and finally, she seemed to have made up her mind, gritted her teeth and said: "Lady, this is the last time the rosary begs you!" For the ...... For the sake of the rosary, because of the lady, she almost died...... Please! β
"You're threatening me?!" Lu Qinghuan suddenly opened his eyes, and his eyes were desolate.
The rosary trembled slightly, and under Lu Qinghuan's scorching gaze, she lowered her head and didn't dare to look at her, and her mouth was still stubbornly pleading: "Lady...... If Yang Dalang is dead, the servant will not be alive......"
Lu Qinghuan froze for a moment, looked at the increasingly unfamiliar rosary in front of him, his heart was stuffy, he sighed, and finally relentlessly, and said coldly to the rosary: "That's your business, it has nothing to do with me." β
After speaking, he suddenly got up, crossed the rosary, and walked straight out, leaving the rosary alone, and sat in place in despair, speechless for a long time.
After a long time, when Lu Qinghuan was about to walk out of the gate of the Lu Mansion, the rosary finally reacted and got up and chased out.
Since Lu Qinghuan was stunned by a strange coachman last time, she has never taken her maid to run errands with her, and her coachman is directly the guard transferred by Pei Yuan's side.
In this way, no matter where Lu Qinghuan goes, Pei Yuan can always be the first to know, and he can also guarantee her safety at any time.
Lu Qinghuan sat in the carriage, thinking of the pear blossom and rainy face of the rosary, and felt very uncomfortable.
She used to regard the rosary and Guibao as sisters, and treated them very kindly, and never put on a fight, but I don't know when they started, they seemed to be separated from herself by a chasm, a chasm that could not be crossed no matter what.
This qiΔ may have started when she accepted Pei Yuan's invitation to join the foreign officials!
Since then, they have been a little more in awe of themselves, and a little more careful, they try to pin their fate on her honor and disgrace, and even vaguely want to decide their lives for her.
This is something that Lu Qinghuan never expected.
Maybe let the rosary see clearly as soon as possible that she is not a person who can be manipulated by others, and let her break her thoughts.
It's just that Lu Qinghuan still miscalculated people's hearts, when a person loses himself and his heart is also blinded, how can he break his obsession? (To be continued.) )
