Hongyan took the package containing Lin Wanwan's change of clothes and followed Lin Wanwan. The middle-aged grandmother silently led the way in front, passing through the pavilion and crossing the bridge, and the place went further and further away.
Lin Wanwan noticed something was wrong, stopped and frowned, "Where are you taking me?"
Hongyan took a step forward, stood in front of Lin Wanwan and looked at the lady of the Duke's Mansion warily.
"Lin Le'an, you'll be here soon. Look, it's in the yard in front."
"It's so funny. Your guest room is located in a place like this where there's no one around? You think I'm stupid!"
Suddenly a smiling male voice sounded: "Wanwan, you have become smarter."
Lin Wanwan turned her head to look and saw Xiao Chong descending from the sky and landing two meters in front of her. Behind him were several precious trees that looked like they had grown for more than a hundred years.
Wow! It’s actually the “plant gold” Eucommia ulmoides!
The fruit, leaves, bark, and roots of this tree are rich in Eucommia gum, which has a wide range of economic uses. The bark is also a precious nourishing medicinal material. Lin Wanwan memorized the information, so she recognized it at a glance.
No, no, what's going on now? Why am I still thinking about this?
Lin Wanwan glared at Xiao Chong: "Cousin! What are you doing? Why did you trick me into this? Could it be that the cup of Sanle syrup that was spilled on my skirt before was also your fault?"
Seeing that the task was completed, grandma quietly retreated a little further, and even dragged the reluctant Hongyan along with her.
"It's just a coincidence, let's take advantage of the situation."
With a chic smile on his lips, Xiao Chong walked up to Lin Wanwan and said in a low voice: "My fair lady, I have longed for you. I can't get it, and I am convinced. Cousin, I haven't seen you for a few days. I miss you very much. Please forgive Xiao.
The abruptness.”
Lin Wanwan said angrily: "Then you can't trick me and throw a glass of wine at me. It's very troublesome to change clothes, you know?"
Xiao Chong bowed his head and said, "This is someone who is not thoughtful enough. I'll forgive you if I'm my cousin."
Lin Wanwan sighed: "Cousin, you really shouldn't have brought me here. The rules in Chang'an City are much greater than those in Luan County, especially in your family. I don't believe you don't know."
Xiao Chong stood up straight and said seriously: "Cousin, I am not ignorant of the importance, but I actually have something important to ask you. I have already informed the adults at home that I will go to your temporary residence to propose marriage soon. I want you to be mentally prepared.
"
Lin Wanwan took a breath of air, unable to speak clearly: "You, you, you...you have already said it?"
No wonder Princess Xiangcheng gave her such a heavy meeting gift and introduced a bunch of seven aunts and eight aunts to her. Was this a sign of no objection?
But I haven’t agreed yet!
"Well, my cousin seems to have doubts? You are a female, you have no relatives or brothers, so you can make your own decisions about your marriage. Of course, if you want to involve Patriarch Lin, you can, but it will take a little longer, so...
A little anxious."
Lin Wanwan's porcelain-white skin turned red with excitement, her face was like a peach blossom, and she said anxiously: "The key to the problem is not where to propose marriage, but that I haven't thought about it yet. Cousin, do you understand?"
When Xiao Chong heard this, his brows furrowed slightly, with a look of hurt on his face, and he said: "You and I went to Yuanye...Does my cousin actually want to go back on her word? She was in trouble for someone and finally abandoned her?"
God is always in chaos and finally gives up. He obviously suffered the loss!
Lin Wanwan was about to refute, but Xiao Chong suddenly said: "Cousin, that was someone's first kiss."
Lin Wanwan was startled and suddenly felt a little short of breath.
Okay, it seems that I took advantage. But it can't be said that I started to mess up and finally gave up. I didn't try to steal his first kiss.
Lin Wanwan's heart softened. She raised her eyes and saw the hidden smile in the depths of Xiao Chong's eyes. She suddenly woke up. This guy who was white and black was simply playing a trick on himself and was sure to kill him!
He immediately shouted angrily: "Cousin, that was the first kiss you gave voluntarily. It has nothing to do with me, so you can't rely on me!"
Xiao Chong's eyes trembled, shocked inside and out by Lin Wanwan's straightforward words, but he immediately started laughing again.
This is the Wanwan he likes, so eclectic and different, she regards worldly rules as nothing, she does whatever she wants, and she is free-thinking. She is not at all like a well-behaved lady educated by the Three Cardinal Guidelines and Five Constant Rules.
He took a step forward, grabbed Lin Wanwan's hand, placed it on his violently beating heart, and said in a bewitching tone: "Cousin, can't you feel the sincerity of someone? Marry someone and let someone take care of you for the rest of your life, how nice is it?
?I swear that I am the only one in this life and I will never let you down."
She felt his sincerity.
Now that she has said this, Lin Wanwan took her small hand out of his big hand, took a step back, away from Xiao Chong, and did not let his breath affect her thoughts. She sighed heavily and said: "Cousin, forget it.
, we are not suitable.”
Xiao Chong really changed his color now, because he could see that Lin Wanwan was serious.
"Why? You are obviously interested in someone."
Lin Wanwan turned her head, looked into the depths of the woods, and said cruelly: "I...I like her, but I won't marry her."
As soon as these words were spoken, Lin Wanwan suddenly felt relaxed. Yes, that's what she thought.
Xiao Chong's breath was blocked in his chest and he was speechless for a moment.
He never expected to get this reply. Even though he was well-informed and mentally strong, he was stifled by these remarks.
Not hearing Xiao Chong's response, Lin Wanwan took a deep breath and continued to speak vigorously: "Cousin, actually I grew up in a world different from yours. The culture my master taught me since I was a child is also different from yours. There is a barrier between us.
It’s not just the identity gap, but also the ideological gap.
Maybe you don’t understand, I...I can’t accept a high-class marriage, because a life bound by rules and etiquette is not the life I want. I just want to be free——"
Just as he was talking, Xiao Chong suddenly stepped forward and hugged Lin Wanwan into his arms, lowered his head and kissed her small mouth that kept talking, taking her breath away.
There wasn't a word he liked to hear, and he didn't want to hear it.
Lin Wanwan couldn't predict Xiao Chong's sudden attack, and was immediately enraptured by his kiss. His intoxicating breath filled her nose, and she felt his uncontrollable love for her.
She was already attracted to him, but now she could feel the masculine aura from his body in all directions, and she couldn't muster the strength to push him away. She was half-pushed and half-kissed fiercely by him.
After a long while, she twisted her body and broke away from Xiao Chong's arms. Her face was as bright as the morning glow and flushed. She looked at Xiao Chong and said angrily: "You..."
Xiao Chong was a little stunned, as if he didn't expect that he would do such an impulsive thing.
He didn't understand how he could lose control so much, but hearing Lin Wanwan keep talking about the gap and impossibility between the two made his heart twist and he couldn't listen for a second.
Is it his fault that he belongs to a prominent family?
"Cousin, you know I'm not talking nonsense. We are too far apart." Lin Wanwan straightened her black hair that was messed up by Xiao Chong and sighed softly.
Xiao Chong's eyes were filled with mist, but it subsided after a moment.
After a long while, he said in a hoarse voice: "Okay. I'm rude."
After saying that, he turned around and left. Unexpectedly, he didn't just walk, he just floated with Qinggong. In the blink of an eye, he disappeared.
