It was as if there were only the two of them left in the whole world.
Ling Xuewei's heart became increasingly peaceful.
Most of the umbrellas were held above Ling Xuewei's head, and the raindrops hit Ye Moyan's shoulder, but his clothes were always clean without any rain stains.
Ling Xuewei talked about what she had done all day, as well as Di Jian Ningyu's and their injuries. Under the sound of rain, her clear voice came.
Ye Moyan had been listening to her carefully and responding a few words from time to time.
In this night, her eyes are as gentle as water.
Snap!
Snap!
The soles of her shoes made a popping sound as they stepped on the accumulated water. Ling Xuewei deliberately avoided the puddles and jumped back and forth. After a while, her trousers were soaked by the water, but she never tired of it.
It was a rare quiet night like this, with only Ling Xuewei and Ye Moyan.
There are no endless government affairs, and no enemies that can attack at any time.
The slender and strong hands held Ling Xuewei, giving her a sense of peace of mind.
Facing Ye Moyan's smiling eagle eyes, Ling Xuewei couldn't help but slightly raise the corners of her lips.
Soon, the two returned to Maple Forest Mountain.
Ye Moyan asked, "Are you tired?"
Ling Xuewei raised her face and smiled, "It's okay."
The large cloak made Ling Xuewei's body even more petite. Because the cloak belonged to Ye Moyan, it seemed a bit long. The bottom of the cloak almost dragged to the ground and was already stained with water.
Ling Xuewei picked it up and shook it.
"My cloak is wet, what should I do?"
She looked up at the high steps, rolled her eyes, and suddenly raised her arms, "Carry me!"
Ye Moyan squatted down naturally, and Ling Xuewei jumped on his generous back like a rabbit, then wrapped her cloak around the two of them!
"This time it won't be dragged to the ground!"
Ling Xuewei chuckled and secretly praised her wit.
Ye Moyan smiled helplessly, but let her go.
Ling Xuewei wouldn't say that she was lazy again, or that she just wanted to act coquettishly, because Ye Moyan looked particularly gentle tonight.
Ling Xuewei put her arms around Ye Moyan's neck and held an umbrella for him with one hand.
Ye Moyan's hand firmly held Ling Xuewei's leg, and he walked up the steps. Every step he took was extremely steady, and he could hardly feel any bumps.
Ling Xuewei's two thin legs were dangling in the air, listening to the sound of rain around her, and looking at Ye Mo Yan's handsome and gentle profile in front of her, she felt that her mood was getting better a little bit.
The two figures gradually melted into the night, and occasionally Ling Xuewei's brisk voice could be heard in the air...
After a moment, a person suddenly appeared in the shadows at the foot of the mountain, staring in the direction they left with sinister eyes.
The handkerchief was twisted into a ball, and there was even more resentment and jealousy in his eyes...
Ling, Xue, Wei!
…
"Where's Qing'er? Why isn't she in the house?"
"Don't worry, ma'am, I'll go look for you right now..."
"Miss, are you back? Where have you been? Madam is so worried."
Lu Zhai.
When Mrs. Xin found that there was no one in the empty room, Lu Qingqing became anxious. The housekeeper was about to go out to look for her when she saw Lu Qingqing walking in.
"Miss, why are your clothes soaked?"
When she got closer to the housekeeper, she realized that Lu Qingqing was wet from head to toe. Xin immediately became worried and told her maid, "Go and get some clean clothes for the lady, and prepare to take a bath."
"yes."
The maid immediately went to prepare, and the commotion in the courtyard quickly attracted Lu Ting.
When he came out and saw this scene, he frowned and said, "Xiao Shisan, where have you been so late? Why didn't you tell us? Do you know how worried your sister-in-law and we are about you?"
"Why should I tell you where I am going? Are you really worried about me? Aren't you afraid that I will go out and cause trouble again?" Lu Qingqing sneered.
"Qing'er! Why are you talking to your uncle Jiu?" Xin scolded.
"snort!"
Lu Qingqing snorted disdainfully, rolled up her sleeves and went back into the house.
Xin was left alone with an embarrassed look on her face, "Don't mind, Qing'er has been in a bad mood lately."
"I understand."
Lu Ting sighed, knowing that she was still angry because he knocked her unconscious last time, and felt helpless.
"Sister-in-law, it's better not to let Little Thirteen go out these days." Lu Ting said.
Mrs. Xin also understood the meaning of his words, nodded awkwardly, and said with concern, "It's raining heavily outside, your injury is not healed, so go back and rest quickly."
Lu Ting nodded and returned to the room.
Xin sighed, now the entire Lu family needs the support of this brother-in-law, she still has to listen to Lu Ting's words, after all, Yi'er is still very young and it is difficult to convince others.
To put it bluntly, as orphans and widowers, they now have to rely on Lu Ting for their livelihood.
Although she believed in this brother-in-law's character,... people's hearts cannot withstand temptation.
Especially now that everyone in the Lu family looks up to Lu Ting. As a woman and a child, she sometimes feels helpless in the face of such troubled times.
In addition, Qing'er has been very disobedient recently and always causes trouble for her, which makes her very tired. Originally, she just planned to take a rest, but she didn't expect that when she woke up, the little thirteen was missing again.
"Qing'er, tell my mother, where did you go? Do you know it's not safe outside? What if there is something wrong with you, what will my mother do?"
Mrs. Xin came to the house and looked at Lu Qingqing who was changing clothes and was heartbroken.
Lu Qingqing's eyes flashed with impatience. She had heard these words countless times and was really tired of them.
"You have no control over where I want to go!"
"Qing'er! Why are you talking to mother like this? Tell me, did you go to Fenglin Mountain again?"
Lu Qingqing held her hand, and the shame of being exposed flashed across her face.
really!
Looking at her expression, what else doesn't Xin understand?
"Qing'er, why don't you give up? My mother has told you countless times not to think about what you can't get, which can easily lead to anger. Why don't you listen?"
"Bang!"
Lu Qingqing threw her clothes to the ground, "Why should I listen? You all have a point. Is it wrong for me to pursue my own happiness? What's wrong with you? You talk nice and worry about me, but the result is not
Afraid of affecting the Lu family's reputation and family honor, when did you really care about me?!"
"Qing'er! How can you think so?" Mrs. Xin couldn't believe it.
"Huh, am I wrong? Don't think I don't know. You all want to curry favor with Ling Xuewei and Uncle Jiu. He is now prosperous in the army, isn't it all relying on the power of that woman?
Now everyone knows that my younger brother and that woman’s son are classmates, so they are naturally a little afraid of him, and they rely on this ninth uncle to rise through the ranks in the army!"
"Shut up! Where did you hear these nonsense?" Xin was furious.
"You don't have to have heard it from somewhere, it's just been spread outside. If you don't want others to know, you have to do nothing yourself. Who would have thought that one day, I, the dignified Lu family, from a noble family, would be begging for mercy and flattering a mere woman!"
I wonder what my father and uncles would think when they see this scene."
