Chapter 051: Consent
The little รท said โ Net], the โ little รท said โ Net],
After Shu Jin finished speaking, he wanted to climb up the corridor, but Wei Ning grabbed her.
"Miss?" Shu Jin asked.
"Don't go, let him go." Wei Ning looked at Wei Lingyu coldly.
Wei Lingyu smiled and said, "If I leave, what will you do?" โ
"If you dare to touch one of my fingers, I will immediately cry out that you intended to rape me." Wei Ning looked at Wei Lingyu and clenched his hands into fists in the pool water.
Wei Lingyu raised his eyebrows and said, "Broken cauldron and sinking boat? Do you think you'll be able to stay out of it on your own? โ
Wei Ning sneered, pointed at Shu Jin and said, "She will testify for me." Wei Lingyu, let me tell you, even if I die, I will not be controlled by you. โ
Wei Lingyu's eyes were complicated, this girl was stronger than he imagined. At the same time, there was also a trace of frustration in his heart, he was so annoying?
Wei Lingyu stood in the corridor for a while, and finally turned around and left.
saw Wei Lingyu's figure gradually moving away. Wei Ning breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, her body softened, and she instantly poured into the pool water.
"Miss." Shu Jin screamed and hurriedly helped Wei Ning.
"Let's go, hurry up." Wei Ning gritted his teeth and said.
The master and servant returned to the tea room in embarrassment. Xu had been waiting in the tea room for a long time, and was taken aback when he saw the two of them soaking wet.
Xu asked Wei Ning what was going on, and Wei Ning just said that he accidentally fell into the pool. Shu Jin originally wanted to report Wei Lingyu's evil deeds to the Xu family, but was stopped by Wei Ning.
"There's no need to say it." Wei Ning explained to Shu Jin in a low voice, "This person is quite deep in the city, let's not make trouble for ourselves, if we meet in the future, just take a detour." โ
Shu Jin nodded, and said no more.
When they came, they didn't bring a change of clothes, so they had to ask the monks in the temple to borrow two plain shirts to change into.
After this incident, Wei Ning hated Wei Lingyu very much.
In his previous life, he was unlucky enough, planted in his hands, but he still refused to let her go in this life.
When Wei Ning returned to the house, he still couldn't calm down for a long time, and he could only secretly complain that he was unlucky, his luck was always bad, and he was unladylike when he met people.
A few days later, Wei Ning received a letter from Lin Changsheng asking Xiaochunzi to hand him a letter asking him to meet at the Red Leaf Pavilion in the west of the city the night after tomorrow.
The day after tomorrow is the annual Lantern Festival. At this time, various parades are held in the streets and temples. Many young ladies from boudoir families will go to the lake to watch the lantern celebration.
Not only that, the Lantern Festival is also a festival for talented and beautiful women to have a tryst and confess.
Lin Changsheng chose this day to meet Wei Ning, and the implication is self-evident.
Wei Ning's heartbeat hasn't dropped since she received the letter.
It has been a while since Lin Changsheng confessed to herself, and these days, she has long forgotten about this matter. I didn't expect Lin Changsheng to come to the real thing, and he really had been waiting for his reply.
Wei Ning was very distressed. She really only has the affection of a senior brother for Lin Changsheng, but she has to admit that Lin Changsheng is the most suitable husband for herself, and he can give herself the quiet life she wants.
But does the right fit have to be the right person? Wei Ning has never figured this out. But rejecting Lin Changsheng, Wei Ning was afraid that he would not find someone more suitable for him than him.
After all, it is already very good for husband and wife to respect each other as guests and respect each other. He is a reborn person, and he has already seen through the red dust and wants to escape the world. If you insist on seeking true love, then there is no need.
But wouldn't this be unfair to Lin Changsheng?
Wei Ning thought for a moment and said to Shu Jin: "You go and reply to Senior Brother, I'll make an appointment." โ
The annual Lantern Festival is fast approaching. That night, Wei Ning told Xu that he was going to the street to enjoy the lanterns, and Xu readily agreed. So Wei Ning went out of the house with Shu Jin.
When I got to the street, the ten-mile-long street was bustling. The streets were filled with shouting and laughter. All kinds of lanterns illuminate the whole street as bright as day. Wei Ning and Shu Jin crowded in the crowd, watching the various activities of guessing lantern riddles, singing, and poetry on the street to dazzle people's eyes. Shu Jin was very excited, and kept following behind Wei Ning, looking left and right.
"Shu Jin, follow tightly, don't get separated." Wei Ning knew that in general, this kind of festival was mixed, and there was everyone on the street, and it was a good time for traffickers to haunt it.
The master and servant made their way through the crowd to the west of the city. The Momiji Pavilion in the west of the city is built on the edge of a small lake, and the lake is full of willow trees, and the breeze blows gently on people's faces, which is very pleasant.
"Look, miss." Shu Jin pointed to the sky not far away. Wei Ning raised his head along Shu Jin's hand, and saw a large number of fireworks suddenly blooming in the dark sky, one after another, which made people intoxicated.
"I don't know who is so rich that they actually bought so many fireworks to set off." Wei Ning looked at the fireworks in the sky and muttered. The dazzling fireworks lit up the entire sky, and Wei Ning saw that under the fireworks, Lin Changsheng's familiar figure was standing in the Red Leaf Pavilion.
Lin Changsheng was also looking up at the fireworks. He faced Wei Ning sideways, and his handsome face looked very quiet and beautiful against the backdrop of the fireworks.
Wei Ning looked at his side face, and his heartbeat was a little faster. She suddenly remembered a poem: "Qin Se is in the palace, don't be quiet." โ
Wei Ning walked towards Lin Changsheng with Shu Jin, still thinking about this poem repeatedly in his heart. Could it be that Lin Changsheng is really the person who can bring him a quiet life and a stable life in the present world?
"Senior brother." Wei Ning walked to Lin Changsheng's side and shouted.
Lin Changsheng heard the voice and turned to look at her.
"You're here." Lin Changsheng smiled and nodded. At this time, there were no other people around, and the Momiji Pavilion in the west of the castle was close to the temple, so there were usually no people coming. Lin Changsheng asked her to come here to talk about things, which was very appropriate.
Wei Ning wore an orange loose flower skirt today, and the corners of the skirt were embroidered with fluttering flowers and butterflies. She wore a black cape over her, and her inky hair was simply tied in a bun, and there was no decoration on it. But a delicate face looks even more beautiful against the backdrop of fireworks.
Wei Ning took off his cloak and asked Shu Jin to take the cloak to the distance. Then sat down on a stool inside the pavilion.
Lin Changsheng also sat down. After a few words of greeting with Wei Ning, he began to talk about the matter of proposing.
"Ning'er, how are you thinking about it?" Lin Changsheng asked.
Wei Ning thought for a while, plucked up the courage and said, "Senior brother, I don't want to hide it from you. But there are a few things I want to make clear to you. โ
Lin Changsheng nodded and motioned for Wei Ning to continue.
"Between me and you...... There is no love, maybe now it is more just brother and sister love, this point, you may accept? Wei Ning said as she paid attention to Lin Changsheng's expression.
"I know." Lin Changsheng nodded.
Wei Ning breathed a sigh of relief, but seeing that Lin Changsheng didn't care very much, he couldn't help but ask strangely, "Then senior brother, why do you like me?" โ
Lin Changsheng looked at Wei Ning, as if he was thinking about this question, and after a long time, he slowly spoke, "Maybe, it's because I think we are the same kind of people." โ
Wei Ning was puzzled and motioned for Lin Changsheng to continue.
So Lin Changsheng continued: "Since I was a child, I have never been interested in other women, except for you Ning'er. Maybe we all want to live that life without any quarrels, so I don't think there's anyone better for me than you, don't you think so? โ
This was to the point, and Wei Ning remembered the good times when he and Lin Changsheng used to talk about medical skills and study medicinal materials. They are not only brothers and sisters, but also confidants, with common interests and hobbies, common life concepts, and common aspirations for the future.
Qin Se is in the palace, and it is good to be quiet. What could be better than such a life?
Lin Changsheng is right, they are the most suitable people for each other.
Wei Ning put her mind at ease, she nodded, and only said one word: "Okay." โ
Lin Changsheng has been looking at her face gently, and suddenly a smile bloomed, his eyes were shining, the two looked at each other, and after a while, Wei Ning heard him say: "Half a month later, I came to the Wei Mansion to propose marriage." โ
After saying goodbye to Lin Changsheng, Wei Ning and Shu Jin walked on the way home. The street was still noisy, and Wei Ning looked at all kinds of men and women walking on the road as she walked.
She suddenly felt very warm in her heart, she stood in the middle of the street, put her hand on her heart, and felt that the missing place in the corner of her heart was slowly being filled little by little.
That's nice.
It's a good feeling.
The corners of Wei Ning's mouth rose slightly, and on the street as bright as day, a delicate girl stood in the crowd, reflected in a person's pupils.
"The prince?" Qi watched Wei Lingfeng stand in front of him for a long, long time, and his steps had not moved a bit.
Wei Lingfeng looked at the delicate figure in front of him, his cold face was full of anger.
Qi looked at his master cautiously, since the Red Leaf Pavilion came here, the anger on Wei Lingfeng's face had not gone down.
Tonight's Lantern Festival, he was originally going out to inspect with Wei Lingfeng. But halfway through, he met Wei Ning's master and servant.
So Wei Lingfeng broke away from the soldiers who were patrolling together, and took him to talk to the second lady of the Wei family.
But the second lady of the Wei family seemed to be in a hurry, and her master called her several times, but she didn't hear it, but she hurriedly walked to the Red Leaf Pavilion in the west of the city.
He knew that his master had always been in love with Miss Wei Er, even if this Miss Wei Er had never been interested in his master.
Seeing that Miss Wei Er didn't hear her call, his master didn't get angry, but picked out a cute rabbit lantern on a shop on the street, ready to catch up with Miss Wei Er and give it to her.
So they chased all the way to the Red Leaf Pavilion, but they didn't expect to see Miss Wei Er and Dr. Lin.
Qi immediately felt a chill emanating from his master's body, but his master still did not give up, but asked him to control the wind in the distance, and he used a little light work to hide near the Red Leaf Pavilion.
After Miss Wei Er and Dr. Lin separated, her master also returned, but her face was even more ugly.
Qi was suddenly very curious, I don't know what this Second Miss Wei and Dr. Na Lin said to make their master so angry?
