Chapter 7: False alarm
After all, Xuanqing Sect is a famous family, although Jiang Linjie has only been studying there for less than a year, the master and brothers who he claims to be a "bad person" have taught him well, and he does have some talent in cultivation, so he has made considerable progress in the practice and application of the basic mental method.
Now that he has returned home, he has not neglected to practice more consciously, and even when he is sleeping, he habitually spreads out his divine consciousness and allows his breath to run freely in his body.
Today, he was freed from his father's study, and he drank a few more cups in his sister's Qingfang Pavilion, and the banquet was closed until midnight, and his sister ordered someone to send him back, but he played a trick and had to stay here in Jiang Lingxi. Out of the shadow of the "girl climbing the bed" incident last time, Yang Chengliu was naturally strongly opposed, but Jiang Lingxi really couldn't resist his younger brother, and considering that he was drunk like this, if he went back and was bumped into by Jiang Lu, it would inevitably be a reprimand, and he was afraid that he would not be able to excuse himself, so he had to give his bed to his younger brother, and he spread the futon on the couch next to him to make do all night.
Today, Jiang Lingxi had mixed feelings in his heart, and he also drank a few more drinks at the banquet, and after falling asleep, he kept dreaming and dreaming in a dream, sometimes revisiting the memory fragments of the deity, and sometimes returning to his own modern age, waking up suddenly, and it took a while to figure out his situation.
I don't know how many times I woke up and barely fell asleep, I was dreaming that a man with a vague face grabbed her wrist and said to her, "This life is not worth it", her wrist hurt, and she was struggling, and suddenly a shout sounded out of nowhere.
"Who?!"
Jiang Lingxi opened his eyes suddenly, wanting to understand that the shouting question came from Jiang Linjie, and hurriedly got up, but in the darkness, he saw a figure frozen in front of Jiang Linjie's bed, leaning forward with his back to her.
During the short circuit, Cheng Liu, who heard the movement, came over with a lamp, only to see that the stiff person was Xinmei, and immediately alerted: "What are you doing?!" β
Xin Meiden's knees weakened, knelt in front of the bed, and said in a trembling voice: "Slave damned!" But please brother must believe in the slave and the maid, the slave and the maid have no malicious intent. β
Jiang Linjie was really a little embarrassed, when he had a birthday last time, he also drank a few more drinks and stayed here, at that time, he didn't have this body cultivation, and he didn't have such vigilance, he only remembered that Xinmei was trained by his sister, although she retained the identity of a second-class girl, but she was sent to the periphery to do some rough work, and the girl's attitude towards her, perhaps including him, began to become a little subtle, and he was sent to Xuanqing Sect in a few days.
Although the details were deliberately pressed by his sister, he was not completely devoid of feelings in his heart, and a similar situation appeared today, which really made his head big. "Heart, Sister Xinmei, what's wrong with you, I thought there was a thief in the house......"
Xinmei only wore a loose undershirt and a cloak on the outside, knelt on the ground at this time, grabbed the fabric on her pants tightly with both hands, and forcibly held back the trembling and explained: "I saw that my brother's quilt was not covered properly, and I wanted to help......"
Before he finished speaking, Liu took a sip and scolded: "Shameless thing, when will it be your turn to help cover my brother's quilt?!" You've been waiting outside, and what do you want to do when you sneak into the house in the middle of the night?! β
"I ......" Xinmei bit her lower lip, as if everyone at the banquet was deliberately guarding against her, she didn't let her come forward to serve, she just wanted to take a closer look at Brother Jie'er, so she came in. But who will believe this?
After thinking about it, she gave up her defense, and turned directly to Jiang Lingxi: "The slave is at fault, the girl just sent the slave and maid out." β
Jiang Lingxi pinched her eyebrows with one hand, rubbing and rubbing, in fact, from just now to now, her heart has always been circled. At this time, there is a deputy "And my role?" The expression and Cheng Liu glanced at each other, and said that Liu took advantage of the situation and said: "It's cheap to go out directly!" β
Jiang Lingxi pondered for a moment, and understood that she was hinting that she was using Xinmei to deal with the He family, and was measuring, saying that Yang came in in a daze, yawning and asking, "What happened?" β
"Brother Jie has a nightmare, it's not a big deal." Cheng Liu said, and hurriedly pushed her out.
Jiang Lingxi looked at Xinmei and thought about it, waved his hand and said, "You go down first." β
At breakfast the next day, although everyone tried their best to show that nothing had happened, there was still an inexplicable embarrassment in Qingfang Pavilion, and for some reason, Yang still muttered in confusion, "What's wrong with one by one?" A preoccupied look. β
After the meal, the sister and brother went together to greet Jiang Lu, and went to talk to Ling for a while, without saying a word about last night's events.
Coming out of the Ling family's house, Jiang Linjie finally couldn't help but ask Jiang Lingxi, "What is my sister going to do about last night?" β
Jiang Lingxi stared at him with interest for a while, "I quite know how to pity the fragrance and cherish the jade." β
The young man's face was hot, and he hurriedly waved his hand and said, "No! I just can feel that she really doesn't have any ill will towards me, anyway, I won't be at home for a few days and leave, I want to ......"
Jiang Lingxi pondered, in the model of He's successful bed climbing, the most direct victim is the deity's mother, thinking that the deity is deeply disgusted by the girl hooking up with the master, this is the second time, and he must not spare Xinmei. But she is an impostor, so she doesn't have this psychological burden, since Jiang Linjie said that Xinmei had no malicious intentions, and opened her mouth again, she can't be too decisive, right?
After weighing it, he patted the young man on the shoulder and said solemnly: "In the incident last night, my sister can promise you that she will not embarrass her." It's just that there are still some things, and it's inconvenient for my sister to mention it to you now, and what will happen in the future depends on how she chooses herself. β
Jiang Linjie seemed to understand it, and then smiled, "Thank you, sister!" β
Jiang Lingxi's mood also brightened a lot with his voice, what a beautiful and kind-hearted young man! For a while, he was playful, and hooked his shoulders and teased: "It's over with empty thanks?" I have to be practical. β
Jiang Linjie was honest, thought about it carefully, and asked, "There is a calligraphy and painting exhibition in Yuntian Academy this afternoon, how about I go shopping with my sister?" β
Jiang Lingxi silently compared a winning scissorhand in his heart: earned.
Jiang Linjie still had a friend party to attend at noon, and said that he would come back in the afternoon to meet his sister, so he went back to Yunqizhai to prepare to go out.
As soon as Jiang Lingxi returned to Qingfang Pavilion, he called Liu to discuss Xinmei's affairs. Said that Liu didn't care about himself, hugged his arms and said leisurely: "What am I talking about?" Brother is messing around, you are also messing around, saying that your own brother slept together when he was a child, and he didn't need to avoid suspicion. Do you know that when you were a child, can you do the same now? Brother is growing up day by day, and besides, do you think what we say about avoiding suspicion is avoiding your suspicion? β
Jiang Lingxi's head was so big that he hurriedly waved his hand and begged for mercy, "Okay, I know it's wrong, tell me what you think." β
Said Liu slanted at her, and complained a few more words: "In my opinion, this is an opportunity, since that hoof is related to the He family, we will use her to deal with the He family." β
Jiang Lingxi nodded in agreement, thought about it and said: "The He family hired someone to assassinate me, Xinmei knew about it, but it will definitely not work if you want to directly coerce her to come forward to testify." First, if that girl is sincere to Brother Jie, she will definitely hate me to death, she and the He family are on the same front, and they can even be regarded as accomplices. Second, the killer of the day has been destroyed by a mysterious person, and there is no way to prove it, Xinmei is a person from Qingfangge, and rashly accusing the He family is easy to be framed by her, so that we are passive, and the third ......"
Third, she doesn't know Jiang Lu's feelings for her daughter, what kind of Cheng DΓΉ can manage this matter, if she can't nail it to death, so that He has another chance to breathe, I'm afraid there will be endless troubles.
Jiang Lingxi pressed this layer, changed the conversation and said, "Anyway, how to use it, we have to take a good look at it." β
Said Liu's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but get closer and ask, "The girl has an idea?" β
Jiang Lingxi could almost feel the hot blood boiling in her body, pondered for a moment, and said seriously: "Not for the time being." β
ββ¦β¦β
The light in his eyes quickly dimmed, and he sighed, thinking that the girl was wiser than before when she fished it out of the water, it was really an illusion.
"Cough", Jiang Lingxi felt the need to save his respect, and thought: "Xinmei's matter started because of Brother Jie, for Brother Jie'er's sake, why don't you have to wait for him to leave after the New Year?" β
