Chapter 70: The Night Party
Night has just fallen.
In the Hidden Jade Pavilion, Su Junning was removing makeup in front of the dressing table.
I was in a bad mood today, so after dinner, I pulled Nan Xu to play chess with her for a while, and then I was ready to take a bath.
As soon as I took off my earrings and put them in the box, I suddenly heard a noise from the window outside.
Su Junning turned his head to look and saw that the window was open with a two-finger-wide slit.
"Go and close that window, the wind blows, and it's annoying to hear."
"Yes." Nan Xu responded and walked quickly.
While walking, I thought to myself, obviously it was closed, but it was not locked, why was it blown again.
When she arrived, and was about to tighten it, she suddenly saw a bony hand reach in, and she suddenly screamed in fright, and strode back.
"Ahh
"What's wrong?!"
Su Junning was frightened by Nan Su's screams and hurriedly came out of the inner room.
At this time, I saw that the window had been opened more than halfway, revealing a figure standing outside the window, and from this angle I couldn't see my head, but I could see that it was a man's figure.
"Whoever is there, Hugh has to pretend to be a ghost!" Su Juning frowned and scolded loudly.
His eyes were already looking around with his peripheral vision, looking for a weapon to take advantage of.
"It's me, don't be quiet, I have something important to look for you."
Shen Qianwei's right arm was injured, and it was very inconvenient to use only his left arm, so he hadn't gotten in yet.
Hearing that it was his voice, although it was unexpectedly how Shen Qianwei sneaked into the Su Mansion at night and found his boudoir, a hanging heart still let go first.
At least not the bad guys.
So while looking at the window, he motioned to Nan Su to close the door with his eyes.
Outside, Yingmei and Jichun prepared bath water and were about to bring it in, but they were blocked by Nan Xu.
"Miss said that you want to read a book for a while and then take a bath and rest, you don't have to come in and serve first, just have me."
The two of them did not suspect him, so they retreated again.
Here, after Su Junning completely propped up the window with a wooden stick that supported the window, he found that the person in a black night suit outside was indeed Shen Qianwei.
So he frowned and whispered.
"What are you doing here, it's so late."
"Why don't you let me in and talk first, I'm afraid that someone will find out standing here." Shen Qianwei looked around.
Su Junning had no choice but to step back a little and let him come in through the window.
After coming in, Shen Qianwei couldn't help but want to see the little girl's boudoir, and stood by the wall honestly, looking well-behaved.
Seeing him like this, Su Junning was a little unaccustomed to it.
After walking to the table and sitting down, he poured two cups of tea and motioned for him to come and sit down.
Only then did Shen Qianwei walk over.
However, he didn't have the heart to drink tea, and after sitting down, he told all the things he had heard today.
"In my opinion, the woman in purple is probably not good for you, do you recognize it?"
"Not only do they know each other, but they are also acquaintances." After listening to Shen Qianwei's description, Su Junning's eyes were a little colder, but he was not surprised.
Immediately, Shen Qianwei listened to Su Juning and said, "That person is the sister of my father's original wife, surnamed Lu, and now her husband's surname is Gao, you may not recognize her, but you should remember her son, the man who wanted to insult me on the day I was married." ”
As soon as he said this, Shen Qianwei remembered, and his face sank quickly.
"It seems that the upper beam is not correct and the lower beam is crooked, you seem to have known it earlier."
"I also knew about it during the day today, but I'm not completely sure, and now when I hear you say it, I'm sure it's her." Su Junning lowered her eyes.
Finally, take a deep breath to calm down and look up at him.
"So you're here to tell me this?"
"Otherwise, it's about your reputation, and it's affected by me, how can I not ask." Shen Qianwei said directly.
When she said this, Shen Qianwei's eyes looked straight at her, and they looked bright and transparent in the candlelight.
Seeing a lot of deceit, hypocrisy and wrongdoing, Su Junning suddenly crashed into such a pair of eyes, and suddenly felt a little trance.
After retracting her gaze, she knew that Shen Qianwei was not lying, and she really came here to find her, really to tell her about it, and to worry about her for the rumors.
"Of course, it's not all to tell you this, I'm here to tell you, if there's anything you need my help with, you just tell me, I'll do it for you, and in the end this matter is also because of me." Shen Qianwei added.
Su Junning shook her head, "It's not because of you, it's that little Lu clan who has a bad relationship with me, and she happened to bump into me talking with you, so she made up this rumor to ruin my reputation, but since I know who is behind the ghost, I naturally won't let it go." ”
After saying this, she looked sideways at the man next to her.
"You said you were willing to help me do things, are you really willing to do anything?"
"Reasonable, naturally." Shen Qianwei said.
Su Junning hooked her lips and smiled, "Then what I want you to do for me is unreasonable, you know, if I want to move someone, it will not be light, do you want to know what happened to Xu Sini who lost his honor in front of my mansion." ”
Originally, he couldn't find a suitable opportunity to speak about this matter, so Shen Qianwei kept it in his heart and didn't ask.
I really didn't expect Su Junning to take the initiative to mention it today.
After a moment of silence, staring at the girl's gaze, Shen Qianwei spoke in a deep voice.
"I know you did it."
"Yes." Su Junning nodded, acknowledging frankly, "I added croton powder to the things she entered, that's why she was like that, I didn't want to make enemies with her, but she designed to harm me in Chengying Lake, and I, as a person, will be avenged." ”
Speaking of this, Su Juning stopped talking and stared at Shen Qianwei motionlessly.
"You can think about it, I'm not a good person, I don't have tolerance, and I don't like to repay grievances with virtue, I can't do those kind and gentle things, so I must be ruthless when I want to deal with Xiao Lu."
After she finished speaking, she saw Shen Qianwei pick up the teacup and take a sip.
He immediately looked up, with a vague smile on his lips.
"Finished?"
"Hmm." Su Junning nodded.
Then I saw that the smile on Shen Qianwei's face was obvious, and there was a faint coercion.
"I grew up in the barracks, the soldiers are not tired of cheating, the mercy is not in charge of the soldiers, and I have seen a lot of things in the face of swords, you little girl, you don't think I'm what you say, gentle and kind person."
Su Junning's eyes flashed, and he immediately showed a sly smile.
"Shen Gongzi is really an interesting person, but I was shallow before."
She originally thought that a man like Shen Qianwei should be the kind of character who likes to speak up and speak up, and draw a knife to help when the road is uneven.
Unexpectedly, he seems to have a chivalrous face, but he is not the kind of bad person who is overflowing with kindness.
"Okay, don't be poor, just say what you want me to do for you." Shen Qianwei smiled.
He was so direct, Su Junning was not polite anymore, and after a little thought, he said.
"Xiao Lu values her eldest son very much, but Gao Wenbo is an unsuccessful person, since she wants to ruin my reputation, then I have to do something she values."
