Chapter 94 Drink it while it’s hot
Song Lingyi frowned.
This behavior of not asking any questions and blaming all the faults on her in one sentence is really infuriating.
"They were the ones who provoked me repeatedly. I was just fighting back."
While refuting, the girl met Xiang's calm and indifferent gaze. Her heart skipped a beat and she felt that Xiang was extremely unfamiliar at this moment.
"Isn't there any elder in the mansion to make the decision? Why do you have to take action? Today is the engagement banquet. How will others talk about our Pei family if you act like this?!" Xiang's eyebrows became more and more stern.
Wang Jin was delighted to see Xiang scolding Song Lingyi. She secretly planned how to add fuel to the fire. She clutched her belly and sobbed, "Auntie, my stomach hurts so much. I must have been injured by her kick."
"What does it have to do with me? You were kicked by Lin Yan!" Song Lingyi would not accept such slander.
"That's enough."
Xiang said solemnly to stop the two bickering, her gaze sweeping coldly over the three daughters of Wang, Zhao, and Lin. "Even if Lingyi was ignorant of etiquette and hit you, it was you who provoked it first. Today is the engagement banquet for the Lu and Pei families. If you dare to disrupt it, do you know what the consequences will be?"
The three women lowered their heads, pursed their lips and said nothing.
At the same time, a servant rushed into the main hall and approached Pei Tingyou and Lu Tanwei to say a few words. Their faces suddenly changed drastically, and they hurriedly stood up and left.
The guests present were curious about what was going on and were discussing it when they heard someone outside the hall shouting loudly:
"Oh no, no, no, there's a fire in the backyard wing!"
The guests in the main hall and side halls put down their wine glasses and chopsticks and rushed to the corridor. The Pei family's master and mistress were absent, and the scene was in chaos for a while.
Lu Qian and Chu Yizhou exchanged glances from afar across the courtyard. The latter covered his lips and shouted, "The fire is coming out of the backyard wing! Hurry and put out the fire!"
The servants didn't have time to think about it, and rushed to the backyard room with wooden buckets. Some curious people also followed to watch.
Old Madam Lu watched the guests flock to the backyard, feeling a little uneasy. "Where are Tanwei and Tingyou?"
Wang shook her head and frowned, "Maybe he went to the backyard to check the situation first."
…
backyard.
The doors and windows of the wing room were closed, and there was only one lamp on in the room, making the light dim.
The actress slowly sat down beside the couch, looking down at the sleeping man on the couch, her eyes moving around in a charming and seductive manner.
She slowly reached out and touched Pei Zhao's chest, feeling how hot and hard the skin under her palm was, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
In the past, she always heard people say that the second son of the Pei family was both talented and handsome, but she had met many young men from aristocratic families, and they were all vulgar people. Today, she saw that the second son of the Pei family had a gentle temperament, and he was really like a banished immortal.
As she pondered, her hand slowly moved down, stroking her chest and lower abdomen, to her waist, and clasped the white jade belt.
The actress still remembered Lu Qian's instructions and did not dare to go too far. She only took off Pei Zhao's belt, loosening his outer clothes to reveal his moon-white undergarment, and his thin skin was vaguely visible.
After doing this, the actress began to untie the laces of her costume.
The dim candlelight in the room adds a touch of charm to the atmosphere.
Just as the Hua Dan costume was half-taken off, a cold and hoarse male voice sounded in my ears:
"Who are you?"
The actress was startled and turned around suddenly, only to see the man who had been unconscious just now sitting on the couch with his legs bent, covering his aching forehead, and giving her a look that was icy cold.
"Pei Erlang doesn't remember me, but I have admired you for a long time." Hua Dan smiled sweetly, leaned over and lay on Pei Zhao's knees, staring at him with her charming eyes, like the witch in the Pansi Cave who sucks people's essence.
Pei Zhao pushed Hua Dan away as if he had been electrocuted, and demanded, "Did you drug me?"
The actress was not annoyed when she was pushed away. She lifted a strand of hair from her chest and twirled it between her fingertips, smiling sweetly: "So what if it is, so what if it isn't?"
"Erlang is already on my couch. It's a beautiful night, no one will disturb us. I will serve you well."
"Go away."
Pei Zhao's expression was cold as he dodged the actress's delicate body as it approached him again. He wanted to get up and tidy his clothes before going out, but as soon as he stood up, he felt his head spinning and his steps were unsteady.
This drug is very powerful, we must leave quickly.
Thinking of this, Pei Zhao shook his head and forced himself to walk towards the door.
Hua Dan reacted immediately and chased after him, hugging Pei Zhao tightly from behind. She spoke with grievance and inexplicably seductive words, "Erlang, why did you leave? Do you think I'm not as beautiful as your fiancée, and I'm not as good at serving people?"
Pei Zhao struggled twice but couldn't break free.
Suddenly, he saw flames reflected in the doors and windows of the wing room. It seemed that there was a fire in the yard, but the actress behind him was not at all panicked and still hugged him tightly.
After a while, there was another sound of busy footsteps in the yard.
"Oh, the water really broke!"
"The fire isn't that big, how could it be so violent?"
The servants kept pouring water on the fire, and the noise was so loud that both people in the room could hear it.
Pei Zhao immediately realized that he had fallen into a trap. If the people outside the door saw him like this, how could the engagement banquet continue?
Feeling the tension of the man in her arms, the actress was calm and blew a breath of hot air into the man's ear, which made him feel numb all over and filled with shame and anger.
"Erlang, there are so many people outside the door. I wonder if your fiancée is inside?"
When Pei Zhao heard her mention Song Lingyi, he was immediately furious. He pushed Hua Dan away with his weak arms, then turned around and grabbed her neck, pushing her against the round table. His eyes were bloodshot, like a wild beast that had lost its mind.
The actress was terrified and kept trying to pull away the big hands that were locked around her neck.
"Who told you to do this?" Pei Zhao gritted his teeth.
The actress rolled her eyes repeatedly due to being pinched, and out of her survival instinct, she kept reaching for the vase on the round table with her right hand.
Bang--
The vase fell to the ground and broke into pieces.
At that time, the fire in the yard had been brought under control by the servants, and they were all puzzled when they suddenly heard some unusual movement in the wing room.
"Who's in there?" someone shouted.
After waiting for a long time, no one answered from the room.
About twenty people gathered in the courtyard, discussing the matter. This wing room was so remote, who would set it on fire? Perhaps they had captured a wild mandarin duck?
Seeing that the time was ripe, Lu Qian slowly walked out of the crowd, his tone as lazy as ever: "Is there any need to ask? It must be someone inside who set the fire in the yard. Just kick the door open and take a look."
The servants looked at each other, and none of them dared to kick the door.
After all, there is a banquet tonight and there may be guests inside. Kicking the door rashly will offend people.
Seeing that no one took action, Lu Qian's eyes darkened: "Since no one dares, then I will do it."
After saying that, he strode towards the door, the corners of his mouth gradually raised up a subtle arc, and he raised his foot and kicked hard.
Bang--
The crowd was shocked.
"Oh my God!"
"This...what is going on?!"
