Yuzhu was shocked and quickly pulled Linglong into the room, then closed the door and said in a deep voice: "Keep your voice down! What if others hear you?"
Linglong felt that there was no need to be so nervous, so she said: "Sister, Mr. Xia is coming to pick you up in the next two days. Even if they know about it, what does it matter?"
"Little girl, what do you know?" Yuzhu lowered his voice and said, "Let me ask you, what if Mr. Xia doesn't come? Have you ever thought about this?"
"No way..." Linglong opened her mouth and looked at Yuzhu in surprise: "Sister, Mr. Xia is not that kind of person, right? Hasn't he always been clamoring to redeem his sister's life? Yesterday it seemed like
I also paid my mother some down payment and said it was settled..."
"It doesn't matter if I paid the deposit. If he doesn't pick me up from here, there are always variables..."
Yuzhu paused for a moment, shook his head and smiled bitterly before saying: "Linglong, my sister doesn't want him to be that kind of person. I also want to be picked up by him in a glorious way... But as a person, you have to have the best attitude when dealing with things.
Bad plan, if...if he really doesn't keep his oath, I will still be the most popular heiress in Yiren Hall from now on, but if what happened last night is spread, I will...
....Alas! So, you have to be careful about what you say, do you understand?"
"I understand, sister, I understand." Linglong quickly nodded in agreement.
But as soon as she agreed, Linglong came close to Yuzhu's ear and asked in a very low voice: "Sister, does it still hurt there?"
The exquisite voice is like the chirping of a mosquito, and even if someone is standing ten feet away, it cannot be heard clearly.
Yuzhu suddenly felt that what she had just said was in vain. She couldn't help but rolled her eyes, feeling speechless and said: "Linglong, why are you so concerned about this issue? You are not Sichun, are you?"
Linglong's face immediately turned red, and she quibbled: "No way, sister, Linglong is just curious to ask. You said that one day in the future, Linglong will definitely do the same... What, if you ask clearly now, it will be fine in the future.
There is no need to be mentally prepared..."
"Nonsense! You're still early. I'll tell you when the day comes." Yuzhu turned around and walked into the house, her walking posture still a little unnatural.
Linglong understood it as soon as she saw it. She stepped forward to support Yuzhu and said: "Sister, please slow down, I will help you..."
"Go, go, go, let's help you big-headed ghost!" Yuzhu laughed and cursed, then immediately shook off Linglong, thinking that she hadn't reached that step yet!
Linglong covered her mouth and said happily: "Sister, your head is not big at all, hehe..."
Yuzhu shook her head helplessly, sometimes she had no way to deal with the shameless Linglong.
"By the way, you came to see me now. Is there anything wrong?" Yuzhu had no choice but to change the subject.
Linglong almost forgot the purpose of her visit, so she pointed in the direction of the front hall with a straight face and said: "Sister, let me tell you, that Lord Chai is having a banquet in the front hall, and he has invited eight sisters to accompany him, and he is very flattering.
What's the name... what is the Eight Beautiful Pictures!"
Linglong nodded vigorously: "It's true. If sister doesn't believe it, you can go and take a look now! They are making such a fuss that I can't even concentrate on my piano practice..."
Yuzhu asked: "Who are there?"
Linglong recalled while saying: "There are Sister Cuilian, Sister Peony, Sister Ginkgo, Sister Lotus... Oh, Sister Pipa is also here..."
As soon as he heard that Pipa was there, Yuzhu became angry and said rudely: "Bullshit Bameitu, they are just a bunch of ugly monsters!"
When Linglong saw her sister suddenly getting angry, she immediately shut her mouth and didn't say another word.
Yuzhu was so angry that she gritted her teeth and secretly cursed Chai Yan for being a blind idiot who actually had the nerve to call a group of mediocre fans the Eight Beauties!
Damn it! It’s really hateful to the extreme!
Linglong didn't know how to respond to these words, so she had to comfort Yuzhu with words, mostly telling her not to be angry and to rest peacefully in the room.
After getting angry for a while, Yuzhu's mood improved a little, and he said to Linglong: "Linglong, while there is still some time, go back to the house and practice again. Tonight is the first time for you to play a new song, so you must not make any mistakes.
That’s it.”
"Yes!" Linglong agreed and said, "Sister, please have a good rest, Linglong will go back first..."
When Linglong came out of Yuzhu's room, the sound of music could already be heard from the direction of the stage in the front hall. Linglong knew that this was the beginning of the show, so she quickened her pace and went to the room.
Although there was a performance going on on the stage, Chai Yan's mind was obviously not there. He had been observing the guests who came in, hoping to find out who was the disguised official.
But the eight girls did not give Chai Yan enough time or opportunity to stare at the door. They toasted to Chai Yan one by one like a carousel, and Chai Yan was disturbed and missed the next one.
So Chai Yan asked Shangguan Peining to help keep an eye on the guests who came in. Whenever there was a familiar face, or he looked around looking for people who behaved suspiciously, he would remind him.
Although Shangguan Peining complained in a dissatisfied tone, saying that I was not a servant and could not be watched, Chai Yan knew in his heart that she had actually agreed.
Sure enough, just after finishing a few glasses of wine served by the girls, Shangguan Peining reminded him: "Chai Yan, a familiar face has come in!"
Chai Yan did not turn around in a hurry to look, but said with a chill in his heart, it’s finally here!
Chai Yan didn't go see him immediately because he was afraid that they would notice him. If the other party noticed him, then everything he did tonight would be in vain.
After Chai Yan drank another drink, he suddenly smiled and said: "Girls, please wait for a moment and let me go down later for your convenience. Then I'll have a drink with you all."
As soon as the words were spoken, Cuilian, who was sitting next to her, said attentively: "Master, how about my servant accompany you..."
After Cuilian said this, others also made the same request.
"No, no, no, I'm not drunk, you continue to drink..." Chai Yan stood up and waved his hands, then joked: "If everyone goes to the latrine with me for labor, then the latrine will be overcrowded.
Already?"
One sentence made all eight girls laugh.
Amidst the laughter, Chai Yan left the table alone, leaving Xiaokui behind and became the focus of everyone. The girls asked her questions one after another, which made her somewhat overwhelmed.
Chai Yan didn't really go to the hut, but found a hidden angle to peek at the familiar faces coming in.
Following Shangguan Peining's prompting, Chai Yan's eyes locked on the two bearded men who had just sat down.
Although the two had disguised themselves, Chai Yan still recognized them. The older one was Chen Kuo, who had issued an edict for him, and the other younger one was Fushun, the eunuch of Xuanyi Palace.
Chai Yan couldn't help but laugh when he looked at their beards. It was true that they had fake beards, but they weren't as sticky as the two of you. They were too thick!

PS: Some friends and readers have complained that the new cover is too ordinary and has no originality, and there is no desire to click on it to read. It does not have the artistic conception and feeling of the original cover, and so on... Uh, okay, that's actually what I'm saying.
Ugly! So, I had to trouble the editor to change it back...[Blow][Face covering]
