At some point, she closed her eyes, her expression softened, and the frost on her face melted away.
"Senior sister?" Li Muchan called, waking her up.
She hurriedly opened her eyes and looked around, and when she met Li Muchan's smiling eyes, her face suddenly became hot, she frowned and said: "Okay, go back, don't you need me to help you?"
Li Muchan shook his head: "I don't dare to bother you, I will go back by myself."
"...Well, I'm leaving then!" She snorted, feeling inexplicably angry, turned around and walked away, more than ten feet away.
She wanted to send him back, but he refused, making her inexplicably angry.
"Wait a minute!" Li Muchan suddenly shouted.
Gong Qingyun turned around, her mood suddenly changed from gloomy to sunny, she was secretly happy, but she pretended to be impatient and turned her back to him and said, "What's the matter?"
Li Muchan muttered: "Senior sister, just pretend you haven't seen me tonight."
Gong Qingyun hummed: "I didn't see anything!"
"I will confess to the eldest lady tomorrow." Li Muchan said with a smile.
Gong Qingyun was startled, and regardless of her anger, she turned around and rushed to him, frowning and saying anxiously: "Are you crazy?!"
Li Muchan smiled: "There is no airtight wall in the world, it's no big deal."
"The eldest lady will never be merciful!" Gong Qingyun said anxiously, her eyebrows knitted together: "You said you were protecting yourself, but there is no proof!"
"People from Chaoran Building can testify." Li Muchan said with a smile.
Gong Qingyun hummed: "It's useless..., don't do stupid things!"
Li Muchan waved his hand and said with a smile: "Okay, senior sister, don't worry, I have my own ideas. See you tomorrow."
Gong Qingyun opened her mouth, but when she saw that he had a determined look on his face and remained motionless, he sighed and hummed: "You can just mess around!...Humph, the government rules are ruthless, and it's too late to regret!"
Li Muchan smiled and said nothing. Gong Qingyun stared at him for a long time, stamped his feet, turned around and floated away, like a white cloud slowly descending, disappearing in the narrow path of the sheep's intestines in the blink of an eye.
Li Muchan shook his head and smiled, then stood up and walked towards the village in the gentle breeze.
He walked slowly on his feet, his mind was turning, and he suddenly reached into his arms, took out the flying knife, and pressed it on the palm of his hand with his thumb. The coolness of the blade seemed to be integrated with himself, connected with flesh and blood.
He turned over his wrist, and the knife suddenly disappeared, completely covered by his palm.
Raising his right hand, he let out a soft whistle, and a ray of white light passed through a locust tree ten feet away and penetrated into the next locust tree.
He floated over and saw that the knife had sunk into the tree, leaving nothing behind.
Turning around, I looked at another tree. There was a hole as big as my thumb, surrounded by some yellow and white powder.
He nodded and smiled. His hand strength had greatly improved. He could not shoot through a tree before.
There was a flash of cold light, the long sword was unsheathed, and the tip of the sword lightly tapped the flying knife.
The flying knife shot out from the tree, and the tip of the sword was pointed again, swinging into the air.
The sword returned to its sheath, and he stretched out his right hand. The flying knife fell steadily into his hand, and he put it in his arms. He thought to himself: It seems that the flying knife can't be given up, and it can accomplish extraordinary feats at critical moments.
When he got home, it was already dark, and the lanterns in the small courtyard were bright, like daylight. Li Zhuzhu, Qin, and his sister-in-law Zhao Yiyi were all chatting in the courtyard, waiting for him to come back.
He joined them and started chatting. Everyone laughed from time to time and had a good time. Looking at the smiling faces of his family and listening to their laughter, Li Muchan felt peaceful and happy, and his cold murderous intention gradually melted away.
Looking at Zhao Yiyi's appearance, it seemed that the two had reconciled. He breathed a sigh of relief. The eldest brother really understood!
In any case, he did not want the two of them to separate and destroy the peace and tranquility of the family.
After talking for a while, he urged the three of them to go back to sleep, while he went back to the house to practice the Observation of Heaven, Humans and Gods.
Early the next morning, he left home and went to Mei Mansion. Instead of going to Tianshu Courtyard, he went directly to Guanhe Pavilion, where he saw Xiao Yuan sitting in the pavilion, leaning on the railing and reading.
She was wearing a pink Luo shirt, delicate and charming. When she heard the footsteps, she glanced this way, then she was overjoyed, put down the book and said: "Zhanran, you are finally here!"
Seeing her sweet smile and plump body, Li Muchan was in a good mood and said with a smile: "Xiaoyuan, are you waiting for me?"
"No!" Xiao Yuan rolled her eyes at him: "What time did you come?"
Li Muchan smiled: "But the eldest lady is looking for me?"
Practicing the Observation of Heaven and the Divine Illumination Sutra, he didn't know the passage of time at all. When he woke up suddenly, it was often bright and clear, and he was not in a hurry.
Xiao Yuan hurriedly turned around and walked inside: "Yes, the lady has been waiting for a long time. Come with me!"
Li Muchan walked inside and said with a smile: "Xiao Yuan, Miss, why are you so anxious to find me?"
Xiao Yuan suddenly stopped and looked at him with bright round eyes: "Sister Gong has gone to see the young lady and told her about you."
"Oh——?" Li Muchan frowned and said with a smile, "Senior Sister Gong really can't hide her words."
Xiao Yuan snorted: "No one can hold back such a thing!...This Fang Shaohua is such a bastard, I should have seen that he is not a good person!"
"Yeah..." Li Muchan sighed.
He was surprised in his heart, his mind was spinning, and he smiled again: "However, this is also human nature, and I can't blame Fang Shou!"
Madoka was disdainful and gave him a stern look: "Huh, you are the leader of all evil! You still defend him, none of your men are good!"
Li Muchan frowned and sighed, "Senior Sister Gong, did you say that?"
His mind was like lightning, and he was the leader in all things, "Senior Sister Gong," Fang Shaohua, three words in a row. He knew it at a glance, and vaguely guessed what Gong Qingyun was saying. He sighed secretly, it was difficult for Senior Sister Gong to work so hard, and his reputation would be ruined!
Xiao Yuan nodded: "Well, I've said it all! ...Thank you for coming back. Otherwise, if Fang Shaohua succeeds, Senior Sister Gong will have no shame in living!"
"Alas..." Li Muchan shook his head and sighed.
The two of them walked briskly and arrived at the garden in a blink of an eye. They followed Xiao Yuan to the small pavilion on the rockery.
Mei Ruolan and Gong Qingyun were sitting in the small pavilion, one in purple and the other in white. The breeze was blowing, their clothes were fluttering, and their faces illuminated the small pavilion.
Li Muchan glanced at Gong Qingyun, shook his head, and saluted Mei Ruolan: "I have met the eldest lady, and I have something to say."
"I was also looking for you. What's the matter?" Mei Ruolan asked calmly and dignifiedly, her eyes blurred and fascinated.
Li Muchan said: "I killed Fang Shaohua, the leader of the party, last night, and I came here to receive my punishment!"
"Well, I already know." Mei Ruolan nodded lightly.
Li Muchan said: "Senior Sister Gong must have said it, last night..."
"Zhanran, I have already told the eldest lady, you don't have to say it again!" Gong Qingyun interrupted coldly.
Li Muchan smiled and said, "Let's say it again, right, Miss?"
Mei Ruolan frowned and nodded slightly: "It doesn't hurt to listen to it again."
"Zhanran!" Gong Qingyun said angrily.
Li Muchan looked at her and then at Mei Ruolan.
Mei Ruolan said lightly: "Qingyun, sit down and listen to Zhanran!"
"Miss..." Gong Qingyun said hurriedly.
"Speak after you listen!" Mei Ruolan waved her hand and looked at Li Muchan: "Zhanran, please speak."
Li Muchan then told what happened. Because of a friend, he wanted to cause trouble for Fang Shaohua, and they had a conflict in a restaurant. He didn't want him to intercept and kill him halfway. When he was injured, he had no choice but to fight hard and accidentally killed the two of them.
Mei Ruolan listened quietly, while Gong Qingyun glared at him bitterly.
Zhan Ran was extremely smart. It was not that he couldn't understand his own eyes, but he just went his own way and wasted a whole night of thinking before he came up with this idea.
After listening, Mei Ruolan glanced at Gong Qingyun and shook her head.
"Miss..." Gong Qingyun felt a little guilty and lowered her head, showing a rare hint of shyness.
Mei Ruolan hummed: "Okay!... You two -"
Her blurred eyes wandered around the two of them, and she sighed: "Zhanran, fighting among the same clan is absolutely forbidden in our house! ... No matter what, if you kill someone, I will discuss with the manager how to deal with it.
Discuss,...come with me!"
She stood up and walked out of the small pavilion, saying: "Xiaoyuan, please invite the general manager, Deacon Zhao, Commander Jin, and Deputy Deacon Li."
"Yes, Miss!" Xiao Yuan responded, looking worriedly at Li Muchan.
Mei Ruolan kept walking and walked down the steps: "Invite four more people from Tianshu Court and two from Kaiyang Court to come over."
"Yes, miss!" Madoka responded.
Mei Ruolan walked in front, followed by Mei Ruolan and Gong Qingyun. The three of them walked down the rockery to the south, passed through a moon gate, and arrived at a courtyard.
Directly to the north of the small courtyard are three main rooms, and a wing room on the east and west sides of the courtyard. The courtyard is filled with plum blossoms, and a cross-shaped path leads to each room.
Mei Ruolan walked ahead and went straight into the main room.
A faint fragrance wafted over, and Li Muchan took a look. The light green carpet was like green grass, the furniture was simple, but the furnishings were elegant and refined.
Mei Ruolan pointed to the screen eastward: "You guys go behind and hide for a while."
This row of screens is as tall as one person, with a total of six connected screens. Each screen is a landscape painting. Together, they are majestic and continuous, like a giant dragon winding, with a majestic momentum coming towards you.
Li Muchan frowned, and finally said nothing, and went behind the screen with Gong Qingyun.
Mei Ruolan sat on the embroidered pier, picked up a book, and read it quietly, dignified and peaceful.
The bright sunshine shines on the window, and the light inside the house is soft and bright.
Behind the screen was a couch and a mat. The two of them sat cross-legged. Gong Qingyun glared at him, leaned forward and lowered her voice: "You are so stupid!"
The fragrance entered her nose, and Li Muchan's mind wandered. Looking up close, her skin was like cream, snow-white and delicate, with an ivory luster, and two soft cherry lips.
He suddenly felt the urge to suck her lips, quickly turned his eyes away, suppressed his thoughts, and smiled: "Thank you very much."
"Alas..." Gong Qingyun glared at him bitterly and hummed: "Forget it, it's too late to say anything, we just have to see how the eldest lady handles it!"
The sound of footsteps came, and the two stopped and listened.
Commander Jin's rough voice sounded: "Miss, what's the important thing?"
"General Manager, Commander Jin, Deacon Zhao, Deputy Deacon Li, please take a seat!" Mei Ruolan said calmly.
Immediately, she talked about Li Muchan.
"Miss, Zhao Yuzhen and the others are here." Xiao Yuan came in.
Mei Ruolan said: "Please invite people from Tianshu Academy to come in first."
"Miss, when it comes to my younger brother, my subordinates should stay away." Li Mufeng's voice was low.
Commander Jin said: "Deputy Deacon, if you are someone else, you should avoid it. As for you, everyone can trust you, so there is no need for you!"
"This..." Li Mufeng pondered.
Li Muchan shook his head. Although his elder brother was extremely intelligent and calm, he was his weak point. When he heard about his affairs, he became confused.
"Deputy deacon, just listen." Mei Ruolan's voice sounded.
"...Yes!" Li Mufeng responded.
Then, two groups of people came in. Four people from Tianshu Academy came first. Mei Ruolan asked a few questions, and Zhao Yuzhen and the others told the truth.
Later, Kong Li and another young man from Kaiyangyuan came in and told the truth.
After they all left, everyone was silent.
Mei Ruolan said lightly: "Zhanran, Qingyun, please come out."
Zhan Ran and Gong Qingyun stayed at the hotel and left the screen.
Mei Ruolan is sitting in the middle, with Cai Xiuping and Zhao Faning on the left, Jin Kaitai and Li Mufeng on the right.
Seeing him come out, Li Mufeng looked worriedly.
Although Li Muchan didn't like the atmosphere, which was like interrogating a prisoner, he kept his expression calm and kept his mood calm and calm.
He put his hands together and saluted everyone.
Mei Ruolan said calmly: "Let's all discuss what punishment Zhan Ran should receive."
Jin Kaitai hummed in a deep voice: "Everyone knows who Mr. Fang is, and he deserves the blame!... But, it's not right for Zhan Ran to kill someone... In my opinion, let's just punish him by facing the wall for a year!"
After saying that, he turned to look at Cai Xiuping and then at Zhao Faning.
Cai Xiuping closed his eyes slightly and looked expressionless, as if he had fallen asleep. Zhao Faning frowned and lowered his eyes, thoughtfully.
Seeing that neither of them spoke, Jin Kaitai said: "Miss, what do you think?"
"What do you think, Mr. Cai?" Mei Ruolan asked calmly.
Cai Xiuping slowly opened his eyes and stared at Li Muchan without saying a word.
Li Mufeng stared at him closely, and Jin Kaitai also looked nervous and widened his eyes.
