Chapter 136 Hanging on a Tree

Lu Sui looked at Jiang Yueyao, and the restlessness in his body calmed down in an instant.

The aura of my whole body suddenly changed.

He didn't say a word and walked towards the house. Jiang Yueyao saw him and immediately chased after him: "You haven't apologized to me yet."

Lu Sui stopped.

He lowered his eyes and looked at her.

At this moment, he was standing under the porch with lanterns hanging under it. The dim yellow light from the lanterns fell down, but it did not erase the coldness in his eyes.

Jiang Yueyao, who was about to pester him again, felt a chill in her heart and straightened her back instantly.

But she still asked with a playful smile: "Why are you so cold again? I'm scared..."

"If you're scared, don't come near me!" The man's voice was cold, revealing obvious impatience. "Don't you see what time it is? Have you had enough of fooling around?"

Jiang Yueyao was stunned for a moment.

She opened her mouth and her voice suddenly faded.

"Why are you so fierce? I..."

He was halfway through his words when he was interrupted by Lu Sui's cold voice.

"Jiang Yueyao, I've spoiled you too much, that's why you act so recklessly in front of me!" He raised his hand, pinched her jaw, and warned her coldly, "Today's incident, I just think you were confused while sleeping. If it happens again, you'll pack up and get out!"

As soon as the words fell, his jaw loosened and Lu Sui turned and went into the house.

The sound of the door closing, neither loud nor soft, blocked Jiang Yueyao's view, but she still stared at the door until her vision gradually blurred...

If she was happy the last moment, then at this moment, a sour feeling wrapped her tightly.

My heart felt like it was being squeezed hard by a big hand. It was painful and stuffy, and I couldn't breathe.

Since coming here, Lu Sui has been considerate and caring towards her in every way, which made her feel a sense of delusion.

She felt that Lu Sui liked him a little.

This illusion caused her to become more and more presumptuous and bold in front of him.

She hugged him, kissed him, and even touched him...

She was testing his bottom line step by step. Just when she thought he would fall, she fell into the pit first, and Lu Sui... He stood at the edge of the pit, looking at her in a mess, indifferent.

Even issued a cold warning, warning her not to come near her again.

Jiang Yueyao didn't know how she walked back to her room. When she came to her senses, she was already lying on the bed.

It was still quiet outside.

But at this moment, she felt it was terribly quiet.

At the moment when she fell into sleep, Jiang Yueyao thought, Lord Lu is indeed a heartless man, just like the legend says, he doesn't like women and doesn't get close to them.

Thinking about how I had always aspired to be his mistress...

Jiang Yueyao suddenly felt it was ridiculous.

Give up!

In this world, three-legged frogs are hard to find, but two-legged men are everywhere.

Does she really have to hang herself on this tree?

…

When she woke up the next day, Jiang Yueyao was in a depressed mood.

But I guess God saw that she had failed in love, so the ankle that was a little uncomfortable yesterday was completely healed today.

She lifted the bed curtains and got out of bed. She walked around the room several times and when she was sure she was alright, she went into the bathroom.

When I came out again, I was already dressed.

Xiaoxi pushed the door open and walked in, holding breakfast in her hand.

"Miss, wake up! Today we have your favorite hand-rolled noodles. Uncle Liu knows you like coriander, so he added some extra for you. Come and eat."

Jiang Yueyao sat over, took the chopsticks and started eating.

Xiaoxi was somewhat surprised to see that she didn't say a word.

Everyone knows that girls are talkative. From the moment they wake up to the moment they fall asleep, they say so much in a day and can chat with anyone.

At this time in the past, when she ate something she liked, she would happily praise it.

But today, she finished her meal in a few bites, rinsed her mouth, said to her, 'I'm going to find Shen Baoqing, you don't need to follow me' and walked out the door.

…

Jiang Yueyao went to find Shen Baoqing.

I happened to meet Bai Shaochuan halfway.

"I was just about to go check on you." He spoke first. "Is your foot feeling better?"

Jiang Yueyao, who was full of grievances, suddenly felt Bai Shaochuan's concern, and her depressed mood improved slightly.

"Much better, you see," she took two steps on the spot, "I'm fine now, completely fine."

"That's good." Bai Shaochuan breathed a sigh of relief. "You came to see Baoqing so early? She must still be asleep. I saw the light on in her room last night. She must be reading the storybook again."

His seemingly complaining words were filled with deep doting, which made her think of Lu Sui uncontrollably.

Every time he caught her reading a storybook, he would scold her with a stern face, as if the storybook was some kind of banned book that she couldn't even look at or touch.

But which girl wouldn’t watch it?

It's just love between a man and a woman. If he doesn't like it, does that mean everyone doesn't like it?

Seeing her with her head down and not saying anything, she seemed to be in a very low mood.

Bai Shaochuan asked hurriedly: "What's wrong?"

"It's okay." Jiang Yueyao looked up and smiled at him, "Then I'll go find her and see what book she's been reading."

Seeing her smile, Bai Shaochuan also smiled.

He has a handsome appearance and a noble temperament. Unlike Lu Sui, who has an aloof air that makes people afraid to approach him, Bai Shaochuan's words and actions are gentle, making him very approachable.

"Okay, stay for lunch. Mother has roasted some rabbit. You can try some too."

"Um."

The two of them entered the yard together.

Bai Shaochuan went to find his mother, and Jiang Yueyao went to Shen Baoqing's room.

Inside the room, the curtains were closed, the bed curtains were drawn tightly, and there was no movement at all.

She walked forward and gently lifted the bed curtain. Sure enough, Shen Baoqing was lying in the quilt, sleeping like a pig. She reached out and gently pinched her nose.

Soon, Shen Baoqing was awakened by the suffocation.

Just as he was about to get angry, he saw that it was Jiang Yueyao. Not only was he not angry, he also hooked her to the bed.

"Hey hey hey my hair...you messed up my hair." Jiang Yueyao held her hair bun, pushed Shen Baoqing away, and sat on the edge of the bed.

"Sleep with me for a while longer," Shen Baoqing twisted his body over and rested his head on her legs.

Jiang Yueyao poked her forehead with her hand in annoyance: "It's almost noon and you're still sleeping? Get up quickly, let's go out and play for a while."

"Where are you going?"

"Just walking around."

It was already late when the two of them went out.

The sun was a bit scorching, but fortunately, in this summer retreat, there were trees everywhere, providing shade, and flowers and plants everywhere. When the wind blew, the air was filled with the fragrance of flowers and the crisp chirping of birds...

Jiang Yueyao's originally tense heart gradually relaxed.

After walking for a while, I met the two sisters of the Meng family.

As soon as she saw Jiang Yueyao and Shen Baoqing, her younger sister Meng Zhixia said crisply, "My sister and I were just looking for you. What a coincidence that we ran into you."

Meng Zhiye walked over and looked at Jiang Yueyao with concern.

"Is your foot better?"

"Much better, nothing serious now."

"That's good."

Several people walked towards the pavilion together.

Meng Zhixia chattered non-stop.

"Hey, do you know? Pei Yunzhu's legs seem to be disabled."
