I just smiled and ignored him.

"How did you know I was here? Did you see me? "

I could feel the happiness of the teenager behind me. I couldn't help but smile as I was infected by his emotions.

"Aunt Mo told me."

Jiang Ming smiled and sighed. When the warm breath entered my neck, I immediately felt my entire body go limp.

I was most afraid of others blowing on my ear, so I didn't know if Jiang Ming was doing it intentionally or not.

"You don't care about me!"

He grumbled and buried his head in my hair, and the arm around my waist tightened.

"I thought you saw me, causing me to be in a mood for nothing!"

"Do you know how difficult it is to deal with the guards by King Qi's side? It took a lot of effort for me to sneak in!"

His words were slurred from being too close to me, and the sound of his heart beating was strangely soothing.

I couldn't help but press my ear closer to his body, feeling the heat and undulation coming from his body.

"Did you see that?"

For a moment, I didn't want to move my body out of a warm embrace in this late autumn, to let him stroke my back up and down.

The temperature slowly spread throughout my body. This action of his was as though he was comforting the mother of a child, but it made my ears feel hot.

I didn't even notice it myself. Before I could say anything, my eyes blurred for a moment.

"En!"

Jiang Ming answered vaguely. He moved me deeper into his embrace, as if he was too immersed in this warm atmosphere that he didn't hear what I said.

I was anxious.

We were only five hundred steps away from Wisdom Tong's meditation room. If King Qi got up and walked around, he would definitely see us. How could this person still hug me as if nothing had happened?

I struggled to see his face.

Jiang Ming seemed to be able to guess what I was thinking and chuckled as he pulled my head back.

"Don't worry, I've brought someone with me. He doesn't have the time to care about me right now!"

Someone who was able to trap King Qi …

I was surprised.

Could it be … Miss Xue?

Jiang Ming was still stroking my back nonchalantly as he smiled and whispered into my ear, "Now that you're in high spirits and Miss Xue is still young, the marriage has changed a lot. My sister is on good terms with her, so it wouldn't be too much to invite her to the next post!"

If Second Young Miss Jiang had sent a card inviting Fourth Miss Xue, then why would he invite such a demure and demure person like Eldest Young Miss to find discomfort for him?! Jiang Ming must be pretending to be his sister to invite Miss Xue over.

However, Miss Xue isn't an idiot. Even I can see the strangeness in her words, so why would she obediently follow Jiang Ming?

I couldn't help but chuckle to myself as I thought about how Jiang Ming was able to talk me into staying calm and not blushing even when coaxing me into doing so.

"What are you playing at now?"

I smiled and gave him a pat on the shoulder. He seemed reluctant to part, and after a while he let go.

Jiang Ming held my hand and led me deeper into the forest.

"Are you the only one who can imitate others?"

Jiang Ming pointed to the matter of me using King Qi's notes to communicate with Miss Xue.

I was surprised.

I didn't expect him to even know about this!

Jiang Ming sighed deeply and looked at me with his deep eyes.

"After looking at the notes, Miss Xue did not hesitate to follow me! "I wonder when you will do this."

I couldn't help but raise my eyebrows.

This kind of thing only those young girls who had just developed feelings for each other could do!

"In the next life!"

I shook off Jiang Ming's hand and walked forward.

His suppressed chuckle came from behind.

I suddenly thought, if I say it like this, doesn't that mean that I have made an agreement with him to love the next life again?

The blood gushed to my face in an instant, and I felt ashamed and angry. I walked faster and faster, and I couldn't help but be angry at myself for being frivolous, for not being able to speak properly, and for not being considerate, and only knowing to laugh at me from behind.

"I didn't expect a girl like you would have such stamina!"

Jiang Ming had a pair of long hands and a pair of long legs. He laughed as he stepped forward and grabbed my shoulder.

"Although my Yuanyuan can't read a word, she didn't hesitate to follow me into this forest. She's even cuter than that Miss Xue!"

I struggled to get rid of Jiang Ming's hand, but he bent down and picked me up. He looked at me happily.

I was embarrassed.

Why did she suddenly trust him so much and follow him into the forest so carelessly?!

"Put me down!"

I scolded him in a low voice.

"I won't let you go, what can you do?"

Jiang Ming carried me and sat me down on a large tree stump. Just like last time, he placed me on his knee.

"Then I'll shout 'molest'. King Qi's hidden guards are nearby!"

Jiang Ming laughed as he pinched my cheek and said, "My wife is so smart! But those idiots will probably need another hour to wake up and save you! "

When I heard that the secret guard that King Qi was so proud of actually became a 'fool' in Jiang Ming's words, I couldn't help but smile.

"What are you doing here?"

I reached out and pushed my hair back from my temples to my ears.

No one answered for a long time.

I turned to see him staring at me with a cheerful smile on his face.

His handsome face glistened in the sunlight, as if carved out of warm white jade. His sword-like brows slanted down to his temples, and I saw a mole in his left eyebrow.

The old man said it was called "the pearl hidden in the grass," and that it was a blessing.

His focused gaze made me feel weak, so I quickly turned my head away. She pushed him with her hand and said:

"Hey!" "They're talking to you!"

A warm and hot thing touches my cheek and sucks at it before quickly leaving.

I stared at him.

Jiang Ming seemed to have hit the side of his cheeks with the Peach Blossom Drunken rouge that I had just bought. Pink color seeped out from his pure white skin. His pair of eyes rippled with light.

I suddenly felt as if the feeling I had kept locked in my heart was difficult to suppress.

The arguments on the official road, the war of words at the banquet, the brazenness in the tea shop, and the deep love in my heart, this youth was like a ray of sunlight shining into my gloomy life.

My heart, which I had wanted to close, burst open.

I smiled wryly to myself.

I have tried this kind of move once before, but the price I paid was my life and child. This time, I don't know what to exchange for it.

I can't, I can't fly into a fire.

Even though he kept saying that he would love me for the rest of his life, it was just his current thoughts. As for me, in the end, I was still an idiot, guarding his empty words, desperately trying to live my life into the dust.

It wasn't scary to fall into a pit, what was scary was to fall into a pit again and again.

Xue Lang, I can only blame him for not being able to protect our child, but I can't blame him for changing his heart.

It was human nature to start and end with chaos.

"What's wrong with you? "What happened to you?"

A pair of large hands with a thin cocoon suddenly came into my face, warm. Jiang Ming's eyes were filled with worry: "Why are you so pale?"

"Will you marry me?"

I brushed his hand away and looked into his eyes.

"Yes!"

Jiang Ming hesitated for a moment.

Looking at Madame Jiang's apparent change in attitude, I had already guessed that Madame Jiang had heard of my rumors or that the Jiang family's ancestors did not agree with them.

Judging from Madame Jiang's performance on the day of mourning, she didn't seem to be dissatisfied with me at all. It was most likely something that had happened to the Jiang family's old mansion.

No matter what the situation was, Jiang Ming would never openly propose marriage.

I grinned, but there was no warmth on my face. "Who does young master Jiang want to hire as an ice man? When do you want to come? "My mother just left, if I don't have five or seven, then this marriage is still possible!"

She hadn't gone out for three years, but if her husband was hired urgently, she could marry him in five or seven miles.

Jiang Ming stared at me in silence for a long time.

I straightened my skirt and started to get up.

"Wait!"

Jiang Ming reached out his hand to pull me back, but I couldn't win against him, so I had to go along with him.

"Can you wait for me?"

His voice was urgent.

"Alright!"

I smiled and nodded my head.

Wait?

The worst thing in the world was to wait!

Equivalency changes the heart of the storyteller, but the heart of the storyteller changes. Many women, when betrothed to their lovers, would believe the man's words of "wait for me" before their beauties became old and gracious. That Wang Baochuan bitterly guarded the cold kiln for eighteen years, but in the end, he was only able to share his husband for three months. Yet, he was still envied by the world as "blissful"!

I would rather not have such happiness!

"You …"

Jiang Ming is a very perceptive person, so he naturally knows that my words of agreement are just a perfunctory response. He bit his lip and looked at me with a complicated expression.

When I saw his cowardly appearance, I was extremely annoyed with him.

He had thought that Ye Zichen was an honest man, but he didn't expect Ye Zichen to be so useless!

"Does young master Jiang have any other instructions?"

I didn't need to look to know that my expression was as cold as ice.

He didn't loosen his grip at all when I tried to break free, but before I could say anything, he let go of me.

I grew more and more frightened.

This so-called 'like', was originally only this much!

I coldly snorted and got up to leave.

"How about … …" Let's elope! "

Jiang Ming anxiously grabbed my sleeve.

I fiercely glared at him before I abruptly pulled back my sleeve and quickly walked forward.

He had originally thought that Jiang Ming was a courageous and heroic youth. However, he simply didn't think that Jiang Ming was just a silver pewter spearhead. Back then, when Xue Lang was just a weak scholar, he dared to come to my window and ask if I was willing to elope with him. To think that Jiang Ming would be so hesitant!

The tip of my nose tingled.

To Jiang Ming, eloping was just a romantic affair between youths, but to me, it was a matter of life and death. I thought I was the one denying it, but in the end, it turned out to be him trying to make things difficult for me.

[I actually fell down to this?]

The autumn wind blew against my face, and I actually shed a few tears. Afraid that Jiang Ming would see, I hurriedly raised my sleeves to wipe them away.

I laughed to myself. When did I become so delicate?

Behind him, there was silence, with only the occasional bird cry.

My heart felt empty.

Jiang Ming didn't chase after him at all.

This time, not only did his heart turn cold, even his body turned cold.

I pulled on my green-stone cloak, as if this action was able to resist the endless disappointment in my heart.

That's true!

For an outstanding young man like Jiang Ming, I am just a merchant's daughter with a strange temper.

I'm already so old, and yet I'm still thinking this way. I deserve to be toyed with!

In the distance, I heard the sound of metal clashing against stone in the depths of the forest. I turned my head to look, but didn't see anything.

I sighed to myself and followed the path up the mountain to the gate.

When she saw me come out, she hurriedly came over, saying, "Just now, a great master brought two young masters over. He said that Young Master Cheng was resting outside."

I nodded my head. It must have been arranged by that Master Wisdom.

"Have you been waiting long?"

I touched Jiayi's head, and the letter hid behind his wet nurse, staring at me with its big eyes.

The wet nurse let him come out and salute me.

I just smiled at him.

As a result of my housekeeper, the servant women at home saw me more or less trembling, the child could not help but be nervous.

"We waited for around an incense stick of time."

It was time for my meeting with Jiang Ming.

It seemed that this monk had some spiritual wisdom!

"You had lunch?"

I held the family's hand and walked to the inner chamber, the family letter timidly held by my wet nurse.

"I just had a vegetarian meal outside with big brother."

I smiled and nodded at him.

I can't bring myself to chat with him at this hour.

"Elder sister?"

He looked up at me and pointed at my cheek. "Have you been bitten by a mosquito?"

I touched my face and felt it heat up.

It must have been the mark left by Jiang Ming's kiss.

"Where? "Where?"

Lan Li, who had been following them outside, hurriedly took a few steps forward to see what was going on.

I covered my face with my hands and said with a hint of embarrassment, "I'm fine! It must be some kind of bug! "

"I brought you some cooling oil, Shu Hen Ointment. Go back to your room and polish it later!"

When Lan Lingyun saw that I couldn't force it with my hands, she asked worriedly.

I reluctantly agreed and hurriedly asked what Jia Yi ate and what he did to change the topic.

After sending my two younger brothers to their grandmother's room to rest, I took LanLingyun to the first room on the west side. While Lu Que was in the middle of cleaning up the things I had brought, Lan Ling pulled Lu Que and told him about the bugs that had bitten me.

When he looked at his face through the target mirror, the imprint had long since disappeared.

Lan Li carefully stared at my face and doubtfully said, "This is really strange!" "How did you get recovered so quickly?"
