The cool thin lips came slowly and landed on her lips with a bit of depression. They were light and brief, but they were enough to knock away all Lu Zhiyao's sanity.
Lu Zhiyao was stunned for a long time before he realized what Lin Yinan had done. His fair face was suddenly filled with blush. Looking at Lin Yinan's eyes, Lu Zhiyao frowned slightly, and the idea of running away came to his mind.
Lu Zhiyao, who thought of something and acted on it, touched the tree trunk he was leaning on with his backhand, and moved his body to the side little by little, thinking of going somewhere farther away from Lin Yinan.
"Where do you want to go?" Lin Yinan raised his long arm and pressed it on the tree to block Lu Zhiyao's whereabouts. The corners of his mouth were slightly raised, and there was a little smile in his eyes, but the words that came out of Lin Yinan's mouth were different from his.
His expression was not cooperative at all. "Do you really think that I won't hold you accountable at all for the things you fabricated between you and Lin Yixiang?"
Lin Yinan's words brought back Lu Zhiyao's guilt that had disappeared. What did he mean by this? Was he angry?
"I've only been away for a month, and I've made you so courageous. Lu Zhiyao, this matter can't be solved by just taking some silver."
Lu Zhiyao faced Lin Yinan who was standing one step in front of her and refused to give in. After listening to what he said, she felt a little hopeless and wanted to run away. She was not used to dealing with Lin Yinan like this, because she could not guess the next moment at all.
What kind of things will he do? The tenderness in Lin Yinan's eyes makes Lu Zhiyao feel so unreal. He is the eighth prince, what about himself? He is just a remnant soul living in this world secretly. So it is doomed.
There are some feelings that she should no longer have. Besides, he already has other women.
"The Eighth Prince is making fun of me again." Lu Zhiyao lowered his eyes, sobered up a little, and said to Lin Yinan. "Fortunately, there is no one around here, otherwise he would be misunderstood. What happened this time is indeed my fault.
So no matter what conditions the Eighth Prince puts forward, I will agree to it."
"Misunderstanding?" The forced smile on Lu Zhiyao's face made Lin Yinan feel dazzled. Did he do something that should be misunderstood?
"Zhiyao, do you know why my father pointed you out to me?" Lin Yinan asked after being silent for a while. Seeing Lu Zhiyao shaking his head, he said: "Because I found it myself.
He wants you. Prince Mu will show up and intervene, and it’s me who begs for it.”
"Why?" Lin Yinan said this, which made Lu Zhiyao even more puzzled. Her heart was sinking little by little. There were some things between her and Lin Yinan that could not be dissipated. "Eighth Prince."
A touch of sadness flashed across Lu Zhiyao's eyes, and she called Lin Yinan softly. She said hesitantly: "I have told you my true identity, so...you must guess what I want to do in the future.
Here we are. You are a good person and I don’t want to drag you into this."
"Am I a good person?" Lin Yinan repeated Lu Zhiyao's words with a self-deprecating smile. "This is really the first time I've heard this."
Lin Yinan retracted his hand and let Lu Zhiyao go for the time being. Turning around and taking a step forward, Lin Yinan turned his back to Lu Zhiyao and said, "The emperor will not pass the throne to the prince."
Lu Zhiyao looked at Lin Yinan's back in surprise. For some reason, she suddenly felt afraid of what Lin Yinan said. Taking courage, Lu Zhiyao asked cautiously: "What the Eighth Prince means, you
Do you want to be the emperor?"
"What are you thinking about?" Lin Yinan turned to look at Lu Zhiyao and quickly rejected Lu Zhiyao's guess. "Of course, you won't pass it to me. Come on, I'll take you back. It's time for me to go home."
Lin Yinan interrupted the topic and walked back side by side with Lu Zhiyao. The road that could have been walked back in a short time made Lu Zhiyao feel very long today.
Lin Yinan didn't say anything anymore, and Lu Zhiyao had to find something to say to break the weird atmosphere. "Does Prince Mu really know about this?" Lu Zhiyao asked worriedly, remembering what Lin Yinan said before.
Lin Yinan glanced at Lu Zhiyao lightly, raised the corners of his lips, and replied, "I don't know."
Lu Zhiyao secretly clenched his fists, and kept saying that he was brave enough to pull Prince Mu out as a shield. If Prince Mu found out, he would definitely pursue the case again. "Then how did you know about Su Changfei?
of?"
Not many people knew that Ye Lianrong fainted and brought Su Changfei into her room, so Lu Zhiyao was curious, how did Lin Yinan get the news?
Lu Zhiyao's question made Lin Yinan's smile deepen. "Wan Yue told me."
Lu Zhiyao's expression was stunned, and the four words "eat the inside and outside" appeared in her mind inexplicably. I don't know when the two people got together to whisper. Lu Zhiyao muttered dissatisfiedly, "Eat the inside and outside."
See if I don’t take away her things when I get back.”
"Who is inside and who is outside?" What Lu Zhiyao said floated into Lin Yinan's ears word for word. He asked meaningfully, making Lu Zhiyao speechless for a moment and not knowing how to answer.
.
After finally returning to her yard, and after Lu Zhiyao sent Lin Yinan away, she could finally breathe a sigh of relief.
"Miss, did something good happen today?" Wan Yue looked at Lu Zhiyao's exhausted look, served tea and water in a flattering manner, then walked behind her and patted her back. "Seventh and eighth princes, come together.
This is a rare thing in our prime minister's house. I just heard from my sister that she saw the master locking up the second lady. Miss, what is going on?"
"Don't you know what's going on?" Lu Zhiyao closed his eyes and asked Wan Yue in a low voice. "What did you say to the Eighth Prince?"
Wan Yue stopped moving her hands, stood behind Lu Zhiyao and secretly stuck out her tongue. "The eighth prince asked the slave, and the slave said it."
"In the eyes of you girl, my master is getting worse and worse than that eighth prince." Lu Zhiyao sighed with a headache.
"When the young lady marries the eighth prince in the future, won't he also be Wan Yue's master? Young lady, we are all one of our own, so don't be so entangled."
Lu Zhiyao sighed helplessly, Wan Yue just thought that Lu Zhiyao thought what she said was reasonable, so she kept silent. But she didn't expect that Lu Zhiyao was at a loss because of her marriage to Lin Yinan.
It was getting late, and Lu Yuanzheng was not in the mood to have dinner because of what happened today. Lu Zhiyao also knew that he must be in a bad mood now, so he didn't look for him. After eating and drinking, Lu Zhiyao came slowly.
When he arrived at Ye Lianrong's room, he glanced at the servant guarding the door and said, "I'm here to see Er Niang."
"Miss, this..." the doorkeeper's servant looked embarrassed, "Master has ordered us not to open this door."
"If my father asks further, you will say that I forced myself in and you couldn't stop me." As Lu Zhiyao spoke, he looked around the yard casually. The maids who usually followed Ye Lianrong
, are all hiding in the house now. Even Yuechan has disappeared.
After a conversation, Lu Zhiyao entered Ye Lianrong's room as he wished. As soon as the door opened, he saw Ye Lianrong sitting at the table with tears on her face. Lu Zhiyao smiled slightly, and walked in front of Ye Lianrong's hostile eyes.
.
"Looking at Er Niang's appearance, it's really heartbreaking. It must be hard to be locked up in the room in this weather and can't go out for air, right?" Lu Zhiyao asked softly with a sweet smile.
Ye Lianrong saw Lu Zhiyao looking like a villain, and her teeth itched with hatred. "You bitch, don't think you can get away with it this time. Sooner or later, I will let everyone know about your activities with the Seventh Prince."
!”
"What are you doing so loudly, Er Niang? I'm not deaf and can't hear you." Lu Zhiyao took a step back in fear, looked at Ye Lianrong who stood up and was about to hit him at any time, and said, "Er Niang, why are you still doing this today?
What nonsense are you talking about? Isn’t today’s lesson enough? Do you want to see what it would be like if the seventh and eighth princes were really angry? The Ye family has been implicated enough by you. If you continue to act like this, you will
Aren’t you afraid that your sister in the palace will be in danger?”
"It's not all your fault!" As soon as Ye Lianrong thought that it was all thanks to Lu Zhiyao that she was here today, she could no longer control her emotions and made a move towards Lu Zhiyao.
Lu Zhiyao easily dodged Ye Lianrong's slap, and with a slight push, he almost pushed Ye Lianrong to the ground. "You are also an elder after all, how can you hit me, a junior, at every turn? Didn't the Eighth Prince say that today?
, I am the future eighth prince, and if you hit me now, you are beating the eighth prince. Aren't you afraid that I will go to the eighth prince to complain?"
"You bitch, Lu Zhiyao, I will never let you go even if I'm a ghost!" Ye Lianrong felt weak for a while, and stood up awkwardly before saying.
"When these words come from Er Niang's mouth, they always make me feel a little uncomfortable." Lu Zhiyao smiled coldly, "When you killed my mother and my brother, didn't you think that they were also ghosts?
Won't you let me go? Er Niang, don't blame me for being cruel. This time, I will definitely pull your Ye family down and trample you under my feet. I also wanted to treat you better for my father's sake.
It's a pity that I have this heart, but you don't. For so many years, you have always regarded me as a thorn in your side. Do you still remember the scene when you and your sister beat me together? I remember it clearly, once
I have never forgotten it.”
The smile on Lu Zhiyao's face became brighter and brighter. Seeing Ye Lianrong's emotions collapse bit by bit, thinking about the real "Lu Zhiyao" who had been killed by her, he continued: "Whatever you did to me back then
Just a little bit better, things wouldn't have reached this stage. To tell you the truth, nothing happened between me and the Seventh Prince. Everything was just made up by me to lure you into taking the bait. So even if it goes to the Emperor, it's really
I won't be afraid if I find someone to test my identity. But if you, the Ye family, are guilty, your sins will be even deeper."
