Jing Jiaren leaned against the window and meditated.
Mr. Ximen has a cruel temper and is very bloody. He even dares to kill his own son. He is poisoned by tigers and will not eat his own children.
How could he be so cruel and willing to save a substitute lover?
She was more hopeful about Ximen Longting. She knew his character well and felt a little unsure about letting him help.
But she felt uncomfortable when she thought that she was going to "use" him and get closer to his world because of Mama Jing.
What she didn't want to do was that she really couldn't provoke Ximen Longting or hurt him again unless she had to.
Right now, I only have dinner time to see if I can have a chance to communicate with Mr. Ximen.
Because Jing Jiaren was left in the manor to eat, the hunt was all done by Master Ximen.
evening.
The maid knocked on the door to inform you that you could go to the restaurant to dine.
In the dining room of a French palace, even the wallpaper is made of gold foil.
The long dining table cannot be seen from the camera at a glance.
It was the first time Jing Jiaren saw the host's first seat, which was so far away from the guests. There were also several bodyguards with majestic and cold faces standing in the middle, wearing pistols.
When Jing Jiaren entered the restaurant, a servant took out an instrument and shot her and Leng Lintian.
See if you are wearing a firearm...
Then, he took out a gun from Leng Lintian's arms and found a knife from his boots.
Jing Jia and Leng Lintian had just finished the inspection when they heard footsteps behind them. It was Ximen Longting and Ji Zihan who were coming.
Seeing them walking in pairs... Jing Jiaren felt uncomfortable.
Both of them changed out of their riding clothes and wore formal evening clothes.
The colors and styles complement each other and look like they are from the same series...
Jing Jiaren felt depressed as she watched the servant take out the instruments for inspection as usual.
Suddenly the instrument beeped, and the servant said respectfully: "Master, your pistol."
Ximen Longting's expression was cold: "I didn't bring it."
After following Mr. Ximen for so long, he will not fail to understand the rules of the Ximen family.
"But the instrument is beeping..." the servant said awkwardly, "Can you take off your coat?"
Ximen Longting took off his suit jacket irritably, wearing a brown vest and a white shirt underneath. He was British and princely.
The servant scanned it again and the instrument was still beeping.
"Master...please take off your shirt."
Jing Jiaren frowned, what on earth did Ximen Longting bring?
Ximen Longting said coldly and sarcastically: "Can my shirt still hide something?"
"Master, please follow the rules."
Ximen Longting glanced at Jing Jiaren suddenly and took off his vest and shirt, revealing his muscular upper body.
Several servants became shy when they saw this scene.
Leng Lintian's cold voice sounded in Jing Jiaren's ears: "Have you seen enough?"
Jing Jiaren suddenly came to her senses and quickly looked away.
And over there, the servant's instrument was still ringing: "Master, pants..."
Suddenly the servant was grabbed by the collar.
At the same time, all the bodyguards stationed in the restaurant took action, raised their weapons, and aimed at Ximen Longting.
Jing Jiaren was stunned. This was not a restaurant. It was like a luxuriously decorated but heavily guarded prison cell!
"Master," the servant said innocently, "please cooperate with our inspection, otherwise... you will not be qualified to participate in the dinner."
Ximen Longting dimmed his eyes, he never bothered to share the table with old man Ximen.
Looking at that old face, he had no appetite...
However, her cold eyes drifted towards Jing Jiaren, and she turned her face away and did not look at him again.
