Chapter Forty-Eight: Temptation
After resting, Zhan Mingxuan began to work, leaving early and returning late every day, but looking through the old volumes. And the Li family, the Zhou family, and the Zheng family didn't make any moves, and the entire Cloud City fell into a strange and calm atmosphere. But everybody knew that it was nothing more than the darkness before dawn, the calm before the rainstorm.
In the blink of an eye, Zhan Mingxuan had been in office for five days. Zhan Yunxi stood in the courtyard and practiced the piano, his slender jade fingers were gently kneaded and twisted slowly, and the clear sound as light and agile as flowing water slanted out. Zhan Yunxi has three hobbies, one is books, the other is chess, and the third is the piano. Because in the process of the game, you can not only peek into the weaknesses of your opponent's character, but also find your own loopholes, so that you can think more carefully and comprehensively, so as to make yourself invincible. However, now there is obviously no suitable opponent, and Lizhu and Yin Li have already been separated by her to do things.
Whenever there is no opponent, Zhan Yunxi likes to play the piano. Her piano sound is like herself, ethereal and unearthly, with a cold indifference that is not stained by earthly fireworks. Zhan Yunxi likes to plan carefully when playing the piano, looking back on everything in his mind like a lamp, finding flaws, then repairing, and looking for them again, and he never gets tired of it.
The sound of the piano lingered in the courtyard, and suddenly there was a few noises. The tassel immersed in the sound of the piano suddenly opened his eyes, and when he saw the visitor, he calmed down his momentum, and the superman showed an embarrassed shy smile. Wanxiang, who came in a hurry, was startled by the murderous aura that suddenly erupted on the tassel, her face turned slightly pale, and then she slowed down her breathing, calmed her heart palpitations, and waited for Zhan Yunxi, but she couldn't help muttering to herself in her heart: The people around Miss are too scary, and they can't even resist themselves who came out of the General's Mansion!
After the song was finished, the jade hand stroked the strings, and when it no longer trembled, the eyelashes fluttered, revealing a pair of radiant beautiful eyes. Wanxiang was stunned for a while, Miss is too beautiful, I don't know who will be cheaper in the future?
Zhan Yunxi took the tea handed over by the tassel, took a sip, and saw that Wanxiang was still staying in place, so he couldn't help but hold his forehead helplessly, and asked, "Wanxiang, is there something wrong?" β
Wanxiang came back to her senses and offered a post with both hands. Zhan Yunxi uncovered the exquisitely made flower note, and after reading the content inside, the corners of his lips hooked, with three points of coquettishness and seven points of brightness, but the sneer in his eyes could not be hidden.
"Garden party? Didn't find out the details of us, so you want to find out the news from us first? It's really naΓ―ve. What did my mother say? β
"Madame said that each according to his ability."
The smile on Zhan Yunxi's face expanded, and the smile went straight to the bottom of his eyes, worthy of his mother's style, "Okay, I know." β
"The slave and maid are gone."
"Master, do you need to inquire first?"
Zhan Yunxi shook his head, "No need, it's just some female dependents, no matter how powerful they are, can they compare to those pink skeletons in the capital?" β
Tassel couldn't help but be amused, and also remembered the beautiful snakes in the capital who didn't smile, and goosebumps all over his body rose, "That's right." β
At dinner, Lin Elegy told Zhan Mingxuan about it. Zhan Mingxuan was silent for a moment, then nodded: "Go, be careful." β
Zhan Yunxi smiled and comforted: "Dad, don't worry, aren't there still Ziyi them?" Besides, how can those people fight my mother? β
Lin Elegy glared at Zhan Yunxi with a smile, "What you said is this, is your mother the kind of scheming person?" β
Zhan Yunxi shouted wronged, "How is it possible, my mother is a beautiful fairy, how can those mortals fight immortals?" β
Lin Elegy was amused by his daughter's eccentric appearance, and looked at her with emotion, so good! In fact, Lin Elegy found out a long time ago that her daughter seemed to be too cold, and she was alienated and elegant outside, and only in front of her family did she have this delicate appearance of being clever and obedient.
"My mother is a fairy, and my sister is also a fairy." Zhan Yundui, who was trying to cook rice, heard the conversation between his mother and sister, and said with a wink of dark eyes.
"Okay, well, I know that you little guy likes your sister the most." Lin Elegy feigned vinegar.
Zhan Yundui didn't refute it, who made her really like her sister the most! Zhan Yunxi rubbed his brother's little head and smiled softly and dotingly.
"Mother, Daddy is so busy right now that he doesn't have time to teach Twilight, do you want to find a master for Twilight first?"
Lin Wangge was shocked and said in a panic: "I said that there is something important that you don't remember?" If you don't tell me, I'll forget that it's time to find a master for Twilight, and I'll have someone find out tomorrow. β
"Hmm." Zhan Mingxuan also agreed.
Back in his yard, Ziyi and the others were already waiting inside.
"Subordinate Xiao Mu (Xie Zheng) has seen the master."
"Excuse me, their poison is cured?"
Ziyi took a step forward and said, "Yes, I found different people to buy medicinal materials from different pharmacies, and I got the antidote." β
"Hmm." Zhan Yunxi leaned lazily on the soft collapse, "Xiao Mu, Xie Zheng, you will follow my father first tomorrow." β
"But the master ....." Xie Zheng was just about to argue when he was stopped by Xiao Mu, and was glared at by Xiao Mu, "Yes, master." β
Xie Zheng saw that his eldest brother had already responded, so he had to swallow the words in his mouth and retreated awkwardly. Yin Li glared at him with hatred. was glared at by the two brothers one after another, Xie Zheng also felt very aggrieved, God knows, how aggrieved a reckless man is, um, ugly.
"What about you?"
Li Zhu took a step forward and took the lead and said: "We have found the entire Cloud City, and there are only major restaurants like the master wants, but almost all of these restaurants have the figure of those three, so they don't dare to move." β
Zhan Yunxi had expected this situation for a long time, and besides, what she wanted was not only a replica of the empty Yin Tower, "Let this matter go for a while." β
"Yes, master."
"Yin Li, do you know anything about the ladies of the three families?"
"This is not very clear, only vaguely know a rough idea, the Li family's mother's name is Luo Yunshan, is the daughter of the owner of Luojiazhuang, has a son and a daughter, the daughter's name is Li Tingfen, the Zhou family's mother's name is Feng Ping, and has a son and two daughters, the eldest daughter Zhou Fang, the youngest daughter Zhou Fei, and the Zheng family's housemother Yang Duo, has two sons and a daughter, and the daughter Zheng Chan. Any more is not clear. β
Zhan Yunxi nodded thoughtfully, "Okay, you all go back and rest first!" β
"Yes, the subordinates retired."
Zhan Yunxi turned around and went back to the house, lying on the bed alone, and the garden party the day after tomorrow may be a good opportunity!
