Chapter Ninety-Three: The Eldest Lady's Decision
The Sajik district is the neighborhood with the highest concentration of wealthy people in Wanyang, where the mansion of the Lan Group is located, the pure white pointed fence encloses the entire villa area in a square, the houses inside are all white, the circular carriageway bypasses the fountain and leads to the stables dedicated to feeding horses and parking carriages, and even the security guards at the reception booth in front of the main entrance are dressed in royal uniforms.
A galloping carriage broke the afternoon silence in the villa area, and the grass and trees in the flower beds were dumped in the direction of the wind along the carriage.
The middle-aged butler in a suit stood in front of the luxurious stable, supported by twenty-four columns, waiting for the carriage to arrive, and after the carriage came to a stop and the coachman got out of the carriage and whispered a few words to him, his smiling face was fleeting.
The four black-clothed bodyguards rolled straight out of the car, to be precise, she was kicked off by Lan Lingxiang in the car, her face was very ugly, and she kept cursing the four bodyguards when she got out of the car.
Seeing the coarse cloth around Lan Lingxiang's neck, the housekeeper immediately decided to wait for the eldest lady to calm down before asking what happened, but Lan Lingxiang refused to come out as soon as he entered his room.
It didn't take long for the maid who served Lan Lingxiang to change into new clothes to be kicked out, and then there was a sound of broken porcelain in the room.
"What the hell is going on?" the butler looked at the red handprints on the maid's face, puzzled.
"I don't know, I've been with the eldest lady for so many years, and it's the first time I've seen her so angry. ”
The butler decided to take a look for himself, and when he pushed open the door, he was almost stupefied by the scene in front of him, the cotton wool of the sheets was scattered everywhere, the floor was full of shards of porcelain and glass, the books on the shelves were torn off page by page, Lan Lingxiang stood on a triangular stool, reaching for the vase on the shelf.
Without preventing an accident, the middle-aged housekeeper hurriedly pulled Lan Lingxiang to the floor and begged, "Ouch!
"I like to drop my own things, can you handle it?" Lan Lingxiang struggled to stand up and wanted to stand on the stool again, but he didn't want to touch a piece of broken glass on the ground.
Looking at the long blood stains gushing out of his palms, Lan Lingxiang suddenly felt difficult to breathe, his face turned from pink to white, and he began to gasp for breath, like a balloon that was gradually expanding in his chest.
"It's so uncomfortable...... Where's the medicine? Give it to me!" Lan Lingxiang clutched his chest and stretched out his hand to the butler.
The housekeeper quickly took out a rectangular vial from his coat pocket, shook out two white pills from it, and fed her the back of Lan Lingxiang's neck.
After a while, Lan Lingxiang's symptoms improved, she wiped the beads of sweat from her forehead, and stretched out her hand to signal the housekeeper to help her stand up.
"Miss, why do you torture yourself like this? In case of an accident, how can I explain to the master?" The housekeeper carefully helped Lan Lingxiang up, very worried about her current physical condition.
"Don't worry about me, it's my luck to be born in a wealthy family, how can I expect God to give me a healthy body? Lan Lingxiang barely regained his old smile.
The butler took a few steps back helplessly: "Say, who is the person who made the eldest lady angry? ”
Lan Lingxiang suppressed his throat to prevent his bad mood from rushing to his heart again, and then told him about the humiliation he had been humiliated by Ling Wenxuan on Youyang Street.
"That Tianyao Sect priest is so hateful, he has offended the eldest lady many times, and it is really unreasonable not to give some punishment. ”
Lan Lingxiang saw that the housekeeper was about to speak and stopped, and hurriedly asked, "How is it?" What news have you heard, tell me quickly!"
"It is said that the priest returned from Glaze Island for a short stay in Wanyang for a short time, and will leave tomorrow. The butler touched the short beard on his chin, "I have sent someone to inquire, and if nothing else, they are going to Chilu Autonomous Prefecture." ”
"Isn't that the place where my country has always wanted to be independent, what are they going to do there?" Lan Lingxiang thought with his hands crossed, "But if Ling Wenxuan leaves Wanyang, who will I ask for the debt of 70 million Belun, it is better to ......"
Lan Lingxiang rolled her eyes and motioned for the housekeeper to come to her, and she whispered her thoughts: "In this way, Ling Wenxuan can't hide this debt no matter what." ”
"Miss, please think twice, this matter must not be allowed!" the butler shook his hand in panic, "Your illness is intermittent, and I dare not guarantee that the clumsy priest will take care of the eldest lady." ”
Lan Lingxiang said slowly: "There is no other way but to do this, when my father left, he told me that I must manage the trade of the port of Sagik, and now the port has suffered such a big loss, in the end, I am also responsible for this matter, if it is not handed over to me, who else can I entrust it?"
The butler patted his chest and promised: "Then you can leave it to your subordinates to deal with, let me keep an eye on the priest, with my old Li's ability, I don't believe that he dares not to pay back." ”
"Steward Li, you are all old, with your legs and feet to keep up with Ling Wenxuan's pace, it is a problem, and you want to defeat the other party, besides, you are more proficient in logistics knowledge than me, I believe that you will create better results if you manage the seaport." Lan Lingxiang walked up to him and straightened the knot on his collar, "You really don't have to worry about me, I'm no longer the sick little girl I used to be, this is my perfect opportunity to get to know this world, can't you promise me?"
Seeing that Lan Lingxiang could not be persuaded to do so, the housekeeper had no choice but to shake his head and say that he had given up.
"Ling Scourge, you wait, I said a long time ago that if you don't pay back the money, I will stick to you until you pay back the money, and then Miss Ben will let you see what it means to do what it means to do what it means. Lan Lingxiang smiled, his eyes narrowed into a straight line, but he forgot that his hand was still bloody, "Oh! It's painful for me! What are you doing in a daze, quickly bandage me." ”
The housekeeper hurriedly rummaged through the medical box on the table for gauze.
Hearing only the sound of "Ah Qiu", Ling Wenxuan sneezed head-on, looking at the slimy thing on the "Teaching Scripture", he shrugged his shoulders slightly embarrassed, and wiped it away amid the laughter of everyone.
"Don't mind, I'm doing the same old thing again, if someone scolds me in secret, my nose will be very itchy. Ling Wenxuan blew his nose and flicked the page of the book, "But now is not the time to discuss who is scolding me, please turn to page 50 of the "Teaching Scriptures", and today we will talk about betrayal, one of the ten felonies of the Tianyao Sect." ”
"Can any of you tell us about what we define as betrayal?"
As soon as Ling Wenxuan was halfway through his words, he saw Zhong Bimo's raised right hand, so he asked Zhong Bimo to stand up and speak.
"The Tianyao Sect preaches 'benevolence', 'righteousness', 'propriety', and 'festival' throughout the world, and these four characters are the Tao of every Tianyao Sect disciple. ”
"Well said, but not entirely true. Ling Wenxuan took the lead in applauding Zhong Bimo, he paused for a moment and continued, "Betrayal in the narrow sense is just like what you said, and betrayal in the broad sense refers to immoral actions that go against one's own heart. ”
"Tell me, what is the heart?"
At this time, Wu Ruyi, who was sitting next to Zhong Bimo, raised her hand unexpectedly, and Ling Wenxuan called her name and asked her to speak.
"The heart has different meanings for different people, and as a member of the Tianyao Sect, his heart is to follow the will of the goddess and carry forward the teachings of the sect. ”
"The head of the class is also right. Wu Ruyi, who was praised, winked at Zhong Bimo arrogantly, Ling Wenxuan ignored it and turned the next page of the "Teachings", "Therefore, the fundamental thing to determine whether a believer has betrayed my religion is whether this person has violated his own heart, and defending his heart with evil deeds cannot be called betrayal, on the contrary, he abandoned his heart with kindness, and it is difficult to get the forgiveness of the goddess." ”
As Ling Wenxuan spoke, he glanced at Youna, who was sitting in the window position on the right side of the last row of the classroom, and Yuna was listening to what he was talking about with relish, without even blinking her eyelids.
After living in the monastery for a while, Yuna began to become interested in Tianyaojiao's theology, and after several begging, Ling Wenxuan finally agreed to come to the classroom of Class 3 as an observer.
But Ling Wenxuan didn't think that Youna could understand just one afternoon's lecture, because Youna didn't know anything about theology, let alone believe in Tianyao Sect. Second, he didn't even believe what he said, and no non-believer was willing to accept this kind of brainwashing.
Yu Na's patient listening on the surface was an illusion, if it weren't for the attraction of Ling Wenxuan's personality, he dared to guarantee that Yu Na would not have come at all.
The conversation with Youna in the hallway after class confirmed Ling Wenxuan's point, as Yuna couldn't answer his questions at all.
"Hey, you yourself want to come to my class, and now you just want to repeat what I said, is it that difficult?"
Yuna staggered in place for half a circle and walked backwards: "Maybe it's the sequelae of my amnesia, but I want to thank you! ”
Ling Wenxuan pursed his lips and sneered, "But you haven't learned anything, have you?"
"I'm sorry, people really don't understand. ”
"Well, I understand your panic in the monastery, but these days are coming to an end soon, and tomorrow we are heading to Chilu Autonomous Prefecture, what do you expect from this journey?"
Yu Na winked at Ling Wenxuan and resumed her posture of walking head-on: "I don't know, why don't you ask your guard nun first?"
Ling Wenxuan snorted coldly and said, "Xun'er's rebel doesn't know where to go after class, where do you let me go?"
"Could she be jealous?" Yuna lowered her head, looking a little embarrassed.
"Why are you jealous?"
"Because we're walking together!"
Yu Na's words woke up Ling Wenxuan, he recalled that in the past, when class was over, Gui Xun'er would walk side by side with Ling Wenxuan, and the two talked about everything, and today Yu Na took Gui Xun'er's place.
"Who knows? I can also think she's creating ridiculous opportunities for both of us. ”
Ling Wenxuan laughed out loud as he spoke, and the smile that was so fake that he could make a human skin mask made Youna speechless with embarrassment.
