After Yusu left, Lin Wanwan put down the notebook in his hand and teased with a smile: "Boss Su is really mercenary, and he actually let Yusu use my news to blackmail Hua Yanzhi. ”

Su Jingqian lazily propped up his chin, stared at her with interest, and said leisurely: "You came up with this idea yourself, I just pushed the boat down the river, why is it on my head?" ”

Lin Wanwan seemed to be broken by him, immediately smiled, glared at him viciously, and then turned his head and stopped paying attention to him.

Seeing that this kitten seemed to be a little fried, Su Jingqian's eyes flashed a doting smile, and he couldn't help but slow down his tone: "The Hua family has covered the sky with one hand in Nanling City over the years, and has scavenged a lot of people's fat and people's ointment, since they take it from the people, then why can't we use it for the people?" A few days later is the end of the year, there are a lot of displaced people outside Nanling City, at this time of the year, Xuanjilou will take out some silver to go to the city to give porridge, if you think Hua Yanzhi's silver is not clean, then use it to exchange for some food, distribute it to the people. ”

"Soup kitchen?"

Lin Wanwan was a little surprised, could it be that Su Jin has been doing good deeds for the people of Nanling all these years? But what is he doing it for? If it is said that he resettled those displaced people who suffered from floods in order to win the hearts of the people, then what did he want to do in the name of Xuanji Lou in the name of Xuanji Tower all these years? It is simply not profitable to do so.

Maybe......

Lin Wanwan turned her eyes to look at him, and the bits and pieces of getting along with him in the past year poured into her mind bit by bit, and the lingering figure in her memory gradually coincided with the person in front of her.

Perhaps, Su Jin is not so cold-blooded.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but wonder, those starry eyes reflected the fine sunlight, like the blue water that melted a lake of starlight, and even the rippling waves became a little softer.

Scorching time, memory is difficult. The light of the past gradually gathered in her mind, like a dot of stars, shining brightly in her memory.

"What are you thinking, so funny?"

Just as Lin Wanwan was in a fugue, she heard that lazy voice ringing in her ears, and there seemed to be a trace of casual laughter in the intoxicating voice.

Lin Wanwan couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and when she looked back, she found that Su Jingqian had stood in front of her window at some point.

I saw him leaning lazily by the window, his thin lips lightly picked, and the whole person was bathed in the golden warm sun, like a piece of white and flawless cold jade covered with a layer of gold veil, and the extremely seductive peach blossom eyes were staring at her with a smile, and there seemed to be some kind of emotion hidden in the depths of his eyes, which made people unable to see through, but he couldn't help but want to investigate deeply.

Just a slight glance, just like the shocking guest back then, Feihong Yinxue, disturbed her a pool of peace.

Lin Wanwan quickly suppressed the strange feelings that rose in her heart, and smiled at him: "It's rare that Boss Su is kind and charitable, if I can do my part for the people of Nanling, I am duty-bound." ”

After she finished speaking, she didn't wait for Su Jingqian to speak, she lowered her eyes and continued to look at the script.

Even though she retracted very quickly, the trace of affection she hid in the depths of her eyes was still captured by him.

His heart trembled suddenly, and a warm current suddenly gushed out, and the scorching temperature seemed to be injected into the blood veins, seeping into the bone marrow, rippling in his heart, and it was difficult to calm down for a long time.

He looked at her softly for a long time before he asked softly, "I'm going to go out of the city in two days, do you want to come with me?" ”

"You're going out of town? Where to? ”

"You'll know when you go."

Lin Wanwan raised her eyes to look at him, and raised her eyebrows curiously, as if she wanted to get to the bottom of it.

But before she could speak, he cut off the conversation leisurely: "I saw that you haven't been out for a long time, and I want to take you out for a walk." ”

Since the last time she met Hua Yanzhi on the street, Lin Wanwan has never gone out again, and even Luo Huaizhou and Shi Manzi's invitations have been pushed down by her one by one, if it weren't for Su Jin appearing in her room twice in three days, and she was almost found by Caged Shuanghe one by one several times, how could she not go out?

I still remember one time, when Xu Jiaojiao came to look for her, she happened to meet them, the usually unfathomable pavilion master, who turned in from the backyard with a familiar car, and after he saw Xu Jiaojiao with a shocked face, he couldn't find half of the panic, and even nodded to Xu Jiaojiao casually, looking as if he was in his own backyard.

Thinking of this, Lin Wanwan couldn't help but glare at the culprit again, who knows, what responded to her was a low and pleasant chuckle, which echoed for a long time in this warm and sunny afternoon.

……

The winter sun is cold and white, sprinkled on layers of snow, reflecting a white scene, and the trees and villages on both sides of the road are like a snow-white blanket.

The carriage slowly stopped in front of a remote Zhuangzi outside the city, Su Jingqian got out of the carriage first, and then reached out to pick up Lin Wanwan behind him, followed by the cage pair wearing a sable fur coat.

Lin Wanwan rubbed her sleepy eyes, and when she looked up, she saw a Qingtang tile house standing quietly under the shadow of the low-hanging clouds, the scattered eaves tiles were covered with a layer of mottled residual snow, and a few jackdaws made a hoarse chirp on the towering treetops, composing a whisper for the cold winter day.

Zhuangzi's housekeeper and several servants were already waiting in front of Zhuangzi's gate, and when they saw Su Jingqian, they immediately greeted him and made a big salute to him.

Caged Shuang looked at the door that was close at hand, clutched his coat tightly, and his slightly excited eyes revealed a hint of tension that could not be concealed.

Lin Wanwan walked over and patted her hand soothingly.

The cage pair understood, pulled out a shallow smile at her, and nodded slightly.

Su Jingqian took the hand stove from the servant's hand, tested the temperature slightly, and then turned his head and stuffed it into Lin Wanwan's hand, this extremely shocking action in the eyes of others seemed very natural in his eyes, as if it had been done countless times, and it had already subtly become a habit.

Then, he bowed slightly to the cage and said, "Let's go." ”

Lin Wanwan's cold fingers trembled slightly when they touched the warm hand stove, and the warmth gradually spread along the fingertips to the bottom of her heart.

She couldn't help but look at the man in the fox fur cloak beside her, her thoughts surging with boundless warmth, and what he said two days ago was still in her ears.

"I'll probably be very busy in a while, I'm afraid I won't have time to accompany you like this time, it's better to let Nuan Yan and Yusu move here to live, it's more convenient, as for the people in the pavilion, you don't have to worry about them being suspicious, I'll arrange it."

"Nuan Yan and Yu Su live well at the pawnshop, why did you suddenly ask me to recall them?" She was a little puzzled, but she felt a faint uneasiness in her heart.

"They are your guards, so they should stay by your side and protect you." He replied as a matter of course, as if it were a matter of course.

Even though his expression was still calm, she was keenly aware that he had asked her to summon the smoke and the rain was not as pure as he said.

"Are you hiding something from me?" As she spoke, she suddenly realized something, "Someone...... Want to work against me? ”

It wasn't until this moment that she understood that his uninvited arrival and his companionship during this time were all to protect her. But what is it that makes him feel unsafe even in his own place?

He half-lowered his eyes, not knowing what he was thinking, and was silent for a long time before he slowly spoke: "There are some things that you will slowly understand in the future, but the less you know now, the better it will be for you." Rest assured, no matter what happens in the future, I will do everything in my power to protect you. ”
