"Do you want to say?" Lu Xingyue asked rhetorically.

Shen Lansui paused slightly, glanced at him, and Lu Xingyue also stopped, his eyes fell on the front, and he didn't look at her.

"If you want to say it, I'll listen to you, if you don't want to, I'll wait until you want to say it."

The corners of Lu Xingyue's lips curved slightly, and he didn't see the indifference and sharpness of his first acquaintance.

These changes are because of her.

Shen Lansui realized this, and his originally apprehensive heart gradually settled down.

She turned back and continued walking, "Some of them can't be said yet, it's not that they can't be said, it's that I haven't figured out what to say, and I'll tell you when the time is right, but no matter what, as long as you don't hurt me, I won't hurt you, just remember that." ”

There were branches blocking the road in front of him, Lu Xingyue raised his hand to brush it away for Shen Lansui, and said with a straight face after a moment of silence: "Me too." ”

Shen Lansui looked back and smiled at him.

She always seemed to be smiling, as if she didn't know the taste of sorrow, as warm as the spring sun in March.

And so, that's fine.

Lu Xingyue smiled back.

*

Since the beginning of autumn, it has been cold every day, and today is especially freezing.

The night was cold, Mu Lang was guarding outside, and he couldn't help but rub his hands.

Xiang Xia came over and handed him a cup of hot tea and said, "Just take a sip to warm up." ”

Mu Lang took it and said in a low voice, "Thank you." ”

A white mist blurred his face.

"Ming'er's newly made winter coat is coming down, you can change it as soon as possible, if there is anything inappropriate, just -"

"Is the master in the house?"

Xiangxia turned around and saw that the visitor was surprised: "Thoughtful? How did you get back? ”

"I have something to tell my master." Zhou Quan walked up the steps quickly, his face slightly gloomy.

Seeing him like this, Xiangxia realized that something was wrong, and hurriedly said, "I'll call someone." ”

"I hear you."

As soon as she turned around, Lu Xingyue came out.

Zhou Quan arched his hand and said: "The things that the master asked his subordinates to check before have been checked clearly, and the matter is urgent, so the subordinates came back without authorization, please forgive the master." ”

Lu Xingyue squinted, it was his eldest brother who asked Zhou Quan to check last time.

Look at Zhou Quan's face......

He said to Xiangxia quietly: "Go in and talk to Madame, I'm going to the study, I'll come back later." ”

"Yes." I didn't ask much about the summer knowledge, and walked in.

Lu Xingyue said: "Go." ”

Zhou Quan immediately followed.

*

"Master, this is the ins and outs of the matter, because it is too secret and has been a long time, the people below have been dredged up the relationship many times, and it took a lot of effort to find out."

Zhou Quan took out a letter from his sleeve and handed it to Lu Xingyue, but when Lu Xingyue took it, he didn't let go immediately, but hesitated for a moment and said: "The master must be calm after reading it, don't be angry." ”

Lu Xingyue's sword-like smooth and sharp eyebrows furrowed.

Zhou Quan let go of his hand apprehensively and looked down at the top of his feet.

After Lu Xingyue took it, he took out the letter paper and looked at it at a glance, the more he looked at it, the more his face sank, and in the end, it could be said that the wind and rain were coming.

Even if Zhou Quan didn't look up, he could feel the low pressure constantly emanating from Lu Xingyue's body, like a blunt knife hanging around his neck, making people shudder.

He couldn't help but bury his head lower, and scolded the culprit's ancestors for the eighteen generations in his heart, but after thinking about it, isn't the eighteenth generation of the eldest son's ancestor the eighteenth generation of the master's ancestor?

He hurriedly retracted what he had just said, and focused on scolding Lu Mingchao and the eldest lady.

Lu Xingyue still didn't speak, he read the letter again and again, and sometimes he even doubted whether he could read or not.

After a long time, he sat down slowly, and slapped the page on the table with his hand.

Lu Mingchao's various reactions before made him suspect that the two had known each other for a long time, and that's all, he really didn't expect that there were so many hidden secrets behind him.

Lu Mingchao once met the Shen sisters who traveled together in a restaurant, and at a glance, Lu Mingchao never forgot Shen Lansui, and later heard that she went to a banquet, so he also followed, but he read poetry and books in the end, knew that etiquette, righteousness and shame, and did not come forward to entangle, but only watched from afar.

But he can't solve the pain of lovesickness, once he returned home drunk, and painted Shen Lansui with the strength of wine, and after he woke up, he was ashamed and wanted to destroy the painting, so as not to be seen and gossip, and cause another incident.

However, looking at the lifelike person in the painting, selfishness finally prevailed, he did not destroy the painting, but hid it in the bedroom, and occasionally took it out to talk about the pain of lovesickness.

The good times didn't last long, and when the maid was cleaning, she accidentally found this painting, and when she opened it, she found that there was a beautiful woman painted on it, and she didn't dare to hide it, so she quickly told the eldest lady.

The eldest lady was already looking for a noble girl for Lu Mingchao, and when she heard this, she immediately called Lu Mingchao over.

Lu Mingchao fell in love with Shen Lansui, and when he saw that the eldest lady found out and simply proposed to marry her, he begged the eldest lady to go to Kanglebo Mansion to hire her, and the eldest lady was still a little curious about Shen Lansui, but when she heard that it was the concubine of the Bofu, her face immediately changed, saying that she was low, her father was incompetent, her brother was immoral, and she refused to agree.

It was also the first time that Lu Mingchao liked someone like this, and he fought hard and broke up with the eldest lady.

On that day, the eldest lady went to his courtyard, tore the painting in front of him, and burned it clean.

Lu Mingchao was stimulated, and he refused to bow his head more and more, and even wanted to leave home.

It was the first time he had disobeyed the Grand Lady in this way.

The eldest lady was angry and hateful, angry that Lu Mingchao was not angry, and hated Shen Lansui for destroying her mother-son relationship.

At the time of the stalemate, Lu Xingyue was seriously injured and sent back in a coma, and the eldest lady had another plan and came up with a way to rush to Xi, to marry Shen Lansui to Lu Xingyue, and her sweetheart became a younger brother and sister, which would definitely make Lu Mingchao die.

But Lu Xingyue was in danger, and she was afraid that Lu Mingchao would be bewitched by beauty, and there would be an ugly thing of forcibly occupying her younger siblings under one roof, so she simply didn't do anything, and bought off that Sun Zong to let him completely ruin Shen Lansui's reputation, and confirmed the rumors of Lu Xingyue's wife.

didn't expect Shen Lansui to die, and he also killed Sun Zong.

Unexpectedly, the dying Lu Xingyue suddenly woke up, and this matter was hastily covered up.

Now that the truth is revealed, Lu Xingyue sat in the circle chair and slowly closed his eyes.

Zhou Quanquan's cold sweat came down, and seeing that Lu Xingyue had not moved, he quietly glanced up, but saw Lu Xingyue leaning on the back of the chair, covering his eyes with one hand, his lips straightened, and the green tendons on his neck were bulging, as if he was trying his best to suppress something.

Zhou Quan was taken aback, "Master?!" ”

Why was this reaction completely different from what he expected?

Lu Xingyue took a deep breath and held it for a long time before slowly exhaling it.

He put down his trembling hands and said in a deep voice, "Don't make a public announcement about this matter. ”

He got up and opened the door with a blank face.

Zhou Quan's heart "chuckled", "Master, where are you going?!" ”

"Go back to your room."

Throwing down these two words, Lu Xingyue stepped into the vast night alone without looking back. (End of chapter)
