Chapter Forty-Eight: The Undercurrent
Seeing that Luo Xue Shen breathed a sigh of relief, he had a little bit of a provocative mind, "...... It looks like I've hit something my wrist, and it hurts. β
"What's the matter, I must have accidentally pushed it just now, I ......" Luo Xue bit her lip, her eyes were full of apologies, "I'm really sorry, it's just me ......"
She was thinking about it, when she heard the man chuckle, and her frowning brow suddenly relaxed.
Only then did Luo Xueshen react that he was being teased by him, and immediately wanted to turn his face and leave.
"Where do you want to go? It's better to stay here and listen to me. Guan Qiannan's eyes were quick, and he pulled her back and sat down beside her.
"What I just said, although it is a bit of a joke, is not all of it. Don't inquire about things you shouldn't ask, I know you're curious, but sometimes you don't know much, so you can be in a safer situation. Do you understand? β
Luo Xue was silent for a while, but her eyes did not take any away from him, how much pain and suffering did such a thoughtful person suffer step by step.
As soon as he remembered that he had mentioned the old lady and the Guan family's treatment of him, Luo Xue Shen felt a sullen breath in his heart, and it was difficult to express his feelings.
Maybe his family is an extremely unfamiliar word to him, think about his unfortunate family, but fortunately, her parents love her daughter very much, and she was raised in a honey pot when she urinated.
But Guan Qiannan never seemed to enjoy a trace of care from her family, she thought like this, her eyes couldn't help but moisten, but fortunately, she rolled her eyes slightly, so that the tears did not fall, "You...... Do you really want to keep fighting with the people of the Guan family? Although there have been grievances and grievances in the past, after all, they are relatives whose blood is thicker than water, so why make such a fuss? β
These words pierced Guan Qiannan's heart, his hands trembled slightly, the expression on his face became secretive, and his eyes lost the warmth just now.
"You're still too naΓ―ve." After a long time, he sighed deeply.
In this deep mansion compound, in the eyes of the Guan family, how could he be classified as their relatives whose blood is thicker than water, but they were just worried that Guan Yilang would be retaliated against by themselves, and they were afraid.
Guan Qiannan raised his eyes and looked out the window, there were a few chirping birds on the banyan tree, it was really a little noisy, he frowned subconsciously, but Luo Xueshen thought that he had said the wrong thing, and he didn't dare to make a sound when he stood aside.
Although I have been with him for so long, the fear in my heart has never dissipated.
"Xu is that you have been pampered by the people in the house as a pearl in your hand since you were a child, so naturally you don't know that the people you see are sinister. You think that blood will make their hearts soft and kind, but you don't know that all the calculations are coming to you. Guan Qiannan said slowly.
Luo Xue Shen looked down at the seven-colored cloud embroidered carpet under his feet, and did not speak, his faint voice always lingered in the room, every word was like an ancient Sanskrit sound, extremely low.
"You have to know why they asked you to come here as a lobbyist, in the past, when I didn't have a wife, they would never dare to set foot in Dongyuan for half a step. It is because of your kind face and easy to speak that you have become their only hope. He shook his head helplessly, but there was an imperceptible smile on the corner of his mouth.
He continued: "In the future, no matter what, you have to remember that people always pick and pinch soft persimmons, and some people will not stop because you don't care, they will just step on your shoulders and climb up step by step. β
Luo Xue Shen knew what he said, so he explained: "I think that you are not in good health now, and most of the forces in the court have gone, so I feel that convergence is the only thing, so I ......."
Before he could say anything, he met the man's gaze, deep and hot, "What I understand is just a kind reminder." Now that I'm not in good health, the Guan family has completely abandoned my scrapped chess piece, it seems that I want to support Guan Yilang, and now I'm reconciled, but I'm afraid that I'm in the way, the details of the Guan family, you can't clear it up for a day and a half, so it's better to say less. β
Luo Xue nodded thoughtfully, knowing that the mystery in this must not be as simple as it seems on the surface, and Guan Qiannan must have her own ideas, so she didn't ask any more. The topic of the two shifted from the Guan family to daily life, and the atmosphere gradually became less depressing.
Two days later, it seemed that the main courtyard could no longer sit still, and he was very eager to know what the result of Luo Xue Shen's persuasion was, so in the morning, Master Guan asked Lian Cui to invite Luo Xue Shen to talk about it.
As soon as he entered the main hall, he saw Master Guan getting up and walking towards him, but Mrs. Guan beside him had a faint expression and did not fluctuate much.
"What did you say?" His voice is somewhat similar to Guan Qiannan, but it lacks Guan Qiannan's unique charm.
Luo Xue Shen looked at him deeply and did not reply.
Master Guan guessed a few points, and the kind smile on his face suddenly collapsed, "Do you remember what my wife and I said to you?" It's just a matter of a few words, why hasn't it made sense yet? β
Today's two seem to have turned over, but Mrs. Guan, who has always been impatient, has stabilized a little, but Master Guan, who has been pretending to be a good old man, is angry and impatient.
Seeing that the situation was tense, Mrs. Guan, who was slowly drinking tea on one side, put down the blue and white porcelain cup, and slowly stepped forward to hold Master Guan's arm, "Why should the master be angry, it's just that he didn't persuade him." Besides, you don't know his temperament, stubborn and proud, how can you easily put down the shelf and reconcile with us? β
These words were said in time, and he persuaded Master Guan, who was about to turn his face, and he sighed and said, "I'm also thinking about the fourth brother today, and I can't be angry for a while." β
Speaking of Guan Yilang, Mrs. Guan's eyes suddenly became dim, she had originally found a doctor for the fourth brother, but she could ensure that his legs and feet healed, but she didn't expect to be secretly harmed, and now his leg injury has worsened a lot, and I don't know what it will be like in the future.
But considering Guan Qiannan's methods to avoid causing trouble again, she still said softly, "The matter of the fourth brother, I will continue to find a good doctor to treat him, now is not the time to say this." β
Luo Xueshen was quite surprised by Mrs. Guan's transformation, and couldn't help but look at her twice, only to see her pair of apricot round eyes glance over slightly, as if smiling, "Since you didn't convince him, then we don't blame you." I also bothered you to go back to Dongyuan and tell him that the Guan family is going to hold a family banquet in three days, and you have been married into the Guan family for so long, and you have not shown up, you should come. You tell me? β
Luo Xue Shen sighed softly, and completely understood what she was selling, I am afraid that this nominal family banquet is just a disguise, and the real purpose may be the two of them.
She couldn't help but open her eyelids and looked at Mrs. Guan for a long time, and the look in her eyes became more and more cold.
