Under the eaves, Lin Jiangnian met a pair of resentful eyes.
She has curved eyebrows and watery eyes, she is delicate and gentle, with a bit of the softness of a Jiangnan woman.
Her face was delicately outlined, her features exquisite, her nose small, and her cherry-red lips glistening with a gentle purse. Her waist-length black hair was tied up in a bun, half pinned up with a delicate white jade hairpin, the other half falling down behind her waist. Her long black hair fluttered behind her dress, making her look like a fairy.
The daughter of the most powerful Prime Minister Zhao of the dynasty, had a natural appearance and temperament, with almost no flaws to be found.
A light blue, cloud-like gown enveloped the delicate form of the young lady from the Zhao family, highlighting her graceful and graceful figure. Even hidden beneath a thick mink coat, Lin Jiangnian could still follow the visible outline, automatically creating a high-definition image in his mind.
The glimpse of beauty in the bath that day is still clear in my memory.
Unforgettable!
Miss Zhao stood quietly under the eaves, her long skirt wrapped around her body. Under the skirt, a pair of slender beautiful legs were vaguely visible, and she was wearing a pair of embroidered shoes with a refreshing feel.
Although he couldn't see her true face, Lin Jiangnian still knew that Miss Zhao's legs under her skirt were slender and well-proportioned, as white as jade.
Longer than life!
Don’t ask, just see it with your own eyes!
At this moment, Zhao Xi, who was under the eaves, was looking at Lin Jiangnian quietly, with a kind of resentment in his eyes.
The resentful tone was like that of a young wife abandoned by a heartless man. For a moment, Lin Jiangnian felt inexplicably uneasy.
"Miss Zhao!"
Lin Jiangnian's expression remained calm. "Miss Zhao, how come you suddenly have time to come visit me today?"
Zhao Xi, who was standing under the eaves, looked increasingly resentful. "Of course I want to see Prince Lin. Since Prince Lin is unwilling to come to see me, I have no choice but to come and visit him."
Lin Jiangnian: “…”
He didn't expect that he would be tricked by Zhao Xi.
The reason I didn't go to see Zhao Xi was, firstly, that I was too busy recently, and secondly, I wanted to give her some attention.
Unexpectedly, after being left alone for a while, she actually came to me on her own initiative?
What kind of behavior is this?
Doesn't she know that she is the daughter of Prime Minister Zhao, and she has come here to find Prince Lin for no reason... If this gets out, won't she lose her reputation?
Looking into Zhao Xi's dark eyes, there was a strange emotion that was hard to describe. For some reason, Lin Jiangnian became increasingly uneasy.
What is this woman trying to do?
In the process of interacting with Zhao Xi, Lin Jiangnian realized that this woman was very smart and not simple.
As the daughter of Prime Minister Zhao, she is not like Xu Lan, a heartless young lady.
She knew Lin Jiangnian very well, and was also aware of the situation in the Jiang Mansion. But despite being so wise, she actually dared to visit him in person... What did she want to do?
"Miss Zhao, what are you talking about? It's true that I've been busy with important matters recently and have no time to spare. Look, I just came back..."
Lin Jiangnian explained sincerely, "Miss Zhao saw it too. It's not that I don't want to see Miss Zhao, I'm just too busy."
"I see."
Zhao Xi blinked and looked at Lin Jiangnian, a smile appearing on her pretty face: "I thought that Prince Lin disliked me?"
“…”
This is a bit ambiguous!
Lin Jiangnian's eyelids twitched slightly, and with a glance out of the corner of his eye, he saw a disobedient little maidservant under the eaves on the other side, stealthily pricking up her ears and listening carefully.
"Xiaozhu!"
Lin Jiang shouted: "Get out first!"
"oh."
Xiao Zhu said aggrievedly, and at the same time, her bright eyes looked at Lin Jiangnian with a bit of cunning, as if she had known some secret.
Before Lin Jiangnian could frown, she stuck out her tongue and quickly pulled Xiaoyue beside her and ran out of the yard.
In the courtyard, only Zhao Xi under the eaves and Lin Jiangnian in the courtyard were left.
Zhao Xi took light steps, walked into the yard from under the eaves, and approached Lin Jiangnian.
She was tall and graceful, and when she stood in front of Lin Jiangnian, she only needed to slightly raise her face so that she could almost look at Lin Jiangnian at eye level.
Lin Jiangnian slightly avoided Zhao Xi's gaze and changed the subject: "Miss Zhao, what's the important matter that brought you to see me today?"
Zhao Xi stared at Lin Jiangnian with her beautiful eyes. The resentment on her face faded slightly, and a faint smile appeared on her fair face: "Don't you know why I came to see you, Your Highness?"
Lin Jiangnian thought for a moment: "Miss Zhao...is it because of Chen Feiyang?"
"Yes and no."
Zhao Xi nodded, then shook her head. When Chen Feiyang was mentioned, a strange look appeared on her delicate face, which was originally smiling.
She lowered her eyes, then said, "However, I haven't had the chance to personally thank Your Highness... for giving me such a generous gift!"
"It's a small matter, not worth mentioning!"
Lin Jiangnian waved his hand.
"This is no small matter!"
Zhao Xi shook his head slightly, staring at Lin Jiangnian. After a pause, he spoke, "It may be a small matter to His Highness, but to me... Your Highness, you have helped me avenge my great hatred!"
"Your Highness has avenged the innocent and tragic deaths of the Xu family and brought them justice. Their spirits in heaven will surely thank you."
"I have no way to repay your great kindness..."
"etc……"
Lin Jiangnian felt something was wrong as he listened, and quickly interrupted her, "You, you're not saying you want to pledge your love to me, are you?"
Hearing this, Zhao Xi blinked her beautiful eyes slightly, looking at the nervous look on Lin Jiangnian's face, she narrowed her eyes slightly, and her almond-shaped eyes gradually narrowed into a slit.
The smile on his face suddenly became a little mischievous.
"Your Highness, do you want me to marry you?"
"Absolutely not!"
Lin Jiangnian's face was full of sternness as he denied it righteously. He looked at Zhao Xi seriously and said firmly, "Chen Feiyang, as the guardian of the Secret Heaven Division, murdered loyal and honest people and treated human lives as worthless. He deserves death from anyone. This prince was merely helping the people get rid of this evil and never thought of receiving any reward..."
"Miss Zhao, there's no need to take it to heart, nor do you need to think about repaying me... I'm not that kind of person!"
Looking at Lin Jiangnian's confident look, Zhao Xi blinked.
The next second, a meaningful smile emerged.
She laughed.
Such a bright smile!
Very beautiful!
Stunningly beautiful.
Then, Zhao Xi suddenly took a step closer, getting closer to Lin Jiangnian. This step brought the distance between them much closer.
Zhao Xi stared into Lin Jiangnian's eyes, a playful smile in his eyes: "Your Highness, do you take what you said seriously?"
"nature!"
Lin Jiangnian took a step back, with a serious attitude as if telling someone to respect themselves.
"Then, Your Highness, why did you keep looking behind me while you were saying this?"
As she spoke, Zhao Xi turned her head and her gaze fell on the end of the corridor not far behind her, where there was a passage.
Zhao Xi turned around, stared into Lin Jiangnian's eyes, and blinked: "Your Highness, who are you talking to?"
Looking at Zhao Xi's smiling face close by.
Lin Jiangnian had no expression on his face.
This woman knows so much and is so smart!
I really want to silence her.
"Of course I'm telling it to Miss Zhao."
Lin Jiangnian's expression remained unchanged. He took a step back, putting some distance between him and Zhao Xi, while glancing at her outside the side hall out of the corner of his eye.
After making sure that there was no one around, I finally felt relieved.
"This prince didn't kill Chen Feiyang just to help Miss Zhao. This man is full of evil and deserves to be killed by everyone. This prince was just doing a favor. Miss Zhao, don't take it to heart!"
Lin Jiangnian said, "Now that Miss Zhao and this prince have common interests, we are on the same boat, so naturally we should help each other... Miss Zhao, don't you agree with this?"
"Your Highness is right!"
Zhao Xi nodded, then raised her head slightly, blinking her bright eyes at Lin Jiangnian and asked, "But what if I don't believe it?"
"What doesn't Miss Zhao believe?"
"Your Highness, do you really not need my repayment?"
Zhao Xi's voice suddenly softened, like a gentle breath in his ear, soft and charming, with an indescribable charm. Her eyes were filled with a certain tenderness as she gazed at Lin Jiangnian.
In an instant, Lin Jiangnian almost got goosebumps.
My heart skipped a beat.
This woman deliberately seduced him? !
But Lin Jiangnian had to admit that she succeeded!
"Miss Zhao, this prince said... I'm not that kind of person!"
"I see!"
Zhao Xi nodded, her eyes gleaming with a strange light. She smiled faintly at Lin Jiangnian and sighed softly, "I didn't expect that His Highness would be such an upright person. It seems that I have misunderstood His Highness..."
At this point, Zhao Xi slightly restrained her smile, stared at Lin Jiangnian, and said seriously: "On behalf of those who died tragically in the Xu family, I would like to express my gratitude to Your Highness!"
As he spoke, Zhao Xi bowed to Lin Jiangnian.
Lin Jiangnian waved his hand: "Miss Zhao, there's no need to be so polite!"
Then, Zhao Xi sighed softly, "I originally prepared a generous gift to express my gratitude to His Highness. Since His Highness doesn't ask for anything in return, I will have no choice but to take it back..."
Lin Jiangnian: “…”
He always felt that Zhao Xi was deliberately teasing him.
"Ah, it's getting late. If you have nothing else to do, I'll take my leave now."
Hearing that Zhao Xi was leaving, Lin Jiangnian breathed a sigh of relief: "Then, take care, Miss Zhao?"
Zhao Xi smiled at Lin Jiangnian and said, "I, your Highness, will not disturb you as a little girl!"
As he said this, he walked out of the yard.
But just as he took the first step, he suddenly seemed to be tripped by something, his body immediately became unstable, and he stumbled and fell directly into Lin Jiangnian's arms.
Lin Jiangnian's eyes narrowed suddenly, and he immediately realized that the woman was doing it on purpose. After hesitating for a moment, he stretched out a hand to stop the stumbling Zhao Xi.
He lowered his head and looked into a beautiful face with fair skin and a blush on it. He seemed a little flustered, but also seemed to have a hint of playful smile on his face.
"No, excuse me?!"
She said she was sorry, but there was no sign of panic on her face.
Instead, it seems a bit... intentional?
"fine."
Lin Jiangnian spoke calmly and took a step back without making a sound.
"Miss Zhao, do you need someone to take you there?"
"No need, I can go back by myself!"
Zhao Xi stood firm and winked at Lin Jiangnian: "Well, I'll be leaving first, okay?"
“Go slowly!”
“…”
Lin Jiangnian stood there, quietly watching Miss Zhao's back as she left. Only after she completely disappeared did he lower his head and open his palms.
I saw a small piece of paper on the palm of his hand!
This Miss Zhao just slipped the note into his hand.
On the note, there was a line of words written in neat handwriting.
Lin Jiangnian stared at the line of words for a while, and couldn't help but sigh.
"This girl from the capital really knows how to have fun!"
“…”
After Zhao Xi left, Lin Jiangnian quickly pulled out Xiao Zhu who was hiding in the front yard.
"ah!"
Xiao Zhu hurriedly covered her eyes in panic: "Your Highness, Xiao Zhu didn't see anything, I don't understand anything... I don't know, I don't know..."
Seeing her like this, Lin Jiangnian couldn't help but laugh: "Stop pretending, I have something serious to ask you."
"Xiaozhu doesn't know anything."
"Do you want your butt to burst?"
Xiao Zhu then looked terrified, and covered his little butt in panic. He took two steps back and shook his head in fear.
"No, no, no!"
"Then be good and listen, I'll ask you..."
Lin Jiangnian looked at Xiao Zhu: "When did this Miss Zhao come?"
"afternoon!"
"What time in the afternoon?"
"It should be... two hours, right?"
Xiao Zhu thought about it carefully.
"What is she doing here?"
Xiao Zhu was bewildered: "Your Highness, you don't know?"
"No questions allowed."
"Xiaozhu doesn't know either..."
Xiao Zhu complained, "Miss Zhao came to visit unexpectedly and said she wanted to see you, Your Highness. Xiao Zhu said Your Highness was out, so she said she would wait for you to come back... but she didn't say what she wanted to do."
Having said that, Xiao Zhu secretly glanced at His Highness with a hint of dissatisfaction.
What!
It is obvious that Miss Zhao is interested in Your Highness... It is so obvious, can't Your Highness see it?
Tsk tsk…
His Highness really likes to flirt with other girls outside!
snort!
Lin Jiangnian didn't know what Xiaozhu was thinking secretly, so he asked a serious question: "She's here... Does Zhiyuan know?"
This is what Lin Jiangnian urgently wants to know!
Has Zhao Xi ever seen a kite? Did he say anything nonsense?
Did she tell him what happened last time?
Although Lin Jiangnian thought that he had an innocent relationship with Miss Zhao, he saw her naked body last time and even touched her... If Zhiyuan knew about this!
I dare not think about the consequences!
"Of course!"
Xiao Zhu nodded as a matter of course: "When Miss Zhao came to visit, it was Sister Zhiyuan who entertained her!"
Hearing this, even though Lin Jiangnian was as calm as an old dog, he became a little panicked: "Have we met?"
"So, what did they talk about?"
"Kite, how's your emotional reaction?"
"Did your face change?"
Lin Jiangnian's series of questions confused Xiao Zhu, who blinked blankly.
"No, I don't know..."
"Miss Zhao and Sister Zhiyuan didn't seem to say anything, but... they seem to be doing fine."
"Sister Zhiyuan, there's no reaction..."
Xiao Zhu thought about it carefully before muttering to himself, "But it seems that Sister Zhiyuan is indeed not very happy..."
"It's over!
This was what Lin Jiangnian was thinking at this moment.
The boat capsized!
send!
