Chapter 209 Why... is he acting coquettishly with her? !
Lu Xinran didn't know when Song Junyan left. When they left after the wedding banquet, Song Junyan had already left.
Everyone is destined to die, but one cannot die as a society.
Therefore, she secretly concluded that the guy didn't know how to face the situation of social death.
After all, not only were they unfamiliar with each other, but his repeated expressions of grievance were not only seen by her, but by others as well.
His cool and dignified image must have been shattered after tonight.
How to repair his precarious image is enough to give him a headache.
Feeling happy and gratified, Lu Xinran happily jumped onto the carriage.
Pei in the car felt a headache listening to her heartless voice. She brought her to face the Ling family today specifically so that she could learn how to deal with these troublesome things in the inner house.
How could she... turn this into just watching the fun!
If they were a little late today, the drunken Fourth Prince would be forced by Ling Xuan to marry her, and wouldn't she have to give up her good marriage? !
Listening to Pei's earnest advice, Lu Xinran raised his hand and rubbed his nose.
"Grandmother, fate is determined by heaven. If he wants to marry the girl from the Ling family, it means that the fate between us is not good enough. A forced marriage is not sweet!"
Listening to her unreasonable arguments, Pei felt so angry that her heart ached.
Why is this girl so resistant when it comes to marriage? In this world, everyone, man or woman, has to get married and no one can escape it. If you can't find a good family, you will have troubles in the future.
But, oh, forget it, I’m afraid this girl hasn’t gotten the hang of it yet.
When she gets wiser, she will understand these things naturally.
Lu Xinlan heard the lingering feeling in Pei's sigh. She lowered her eyes, but she felt a different kind of sigh in her heart.
She knew that Lu Xinran had not yet come to his senses, and his understanding of love was limited to what he had seen in his previous life.
If this was in her previous life, she would definitely give her some advice.
Love and marriage are both life experiences. Don’t be afraid of failure, you can always break up or divorce.
It's like falling down and standing up again, she still belongs to herself.
But it's different here. If she falls in love here, she might be doomed. She would rather be heartless like this for the rest of her life.
It is said that the person who falls in love first is the loser, and she hopes that she will always have the initiative.
It was already dark when they returned to Lu's residence, and everyone went back to their courtyards to rest.
Lu Xinran looked at the three booklets displayed side by side in the system. He originally wanted to stay up late to read the past of the three members of the Tang family.
As a result, I couldn't stop dozing off when I fell on the bed, and soon fell into a deep sleep.
The next day she sat up feeling dizzy. Before she could come to her senses she heard Cuizhu push the door open and start talking about the bustling city.
"Miss, the wife of Master Fan Tian went to the government early this morning to file a complaint against the concubine Fan Ling and Peng Ruide for murder. The wife of the Ji family also went to Shuntian Mansion to testify for Madam Fan."
She just found out about Fan Ling and Peng Ruide's affair yesterday, and today they were exposed?
She rolled out of bed, changed her clothes immediately, and went straight to Lu Xinlan's room without even bothering to have breakfast.
Lu Xinlan received the news early in the morning and knew that Lu Xinran would be eager to go see the excitement when she woke up, so she dressed neatly and waited for her in the room.
When they saw her come in, the two sisters understood what she meant with just a glance. They asked the servant to tell Pei and then left Lu's house directly.
The area outside Shuntian Mansion was already packed with people, and even the windows of the teahouse opposite were filled with people.
The two sisters arrived late and could neither squeeze in at the door nor book a private room in the teahouse. They were wondering where to go to eat melons when a maid squeezed through the crowd and came to them.
"Two girls, our girl wants to see you."
Where there are big melons, there must be Zhang Shuier. She sent people to guard outside the Fan family's door early in the morning.
Upon receiving the news that Mrs. Fan Qi was going out, she immediately asked someone to book a private room with the best view.
At this moment, they saw Lu Xinran and the other person rushing out from the crowd, and their broken mentality from the previous day was instantly healed.
As soon as Lu Xinran entered the room, she saw Tang Wanrou sitting next to her. She blinked, thinking she was seeing things.
"Why are you here too?"
Isn’t today the day for recognizing relatives and offering tea?
After serving tea to the elders, she had to go to the ancestral temple to worship and then enter the family tree. This day should be very busy. How could she have time to come and see the excitement? !
Tang Wanrou smiled shyly: "My husband and mother-in-law said that there is nothing to do today, so they asked Shui'er to take me out for some fresh air."
Lu Xinran: “…”
I have nothing to worry about when I have melons to eat!
She gave them both a thumbs up. The Zhang family was indeed a very informal group of people, and they loved their daughter-in-law very much.
Zhang Shui'er had been waiting for their arrival for a long time, and now she couldn't wait to go forward and drag them to the window.
"Come and have a look. The police have gone to the manor outside the city and the Fan residence to arrest people. Judging from the time, they should be back soon."
The window was in an excellent position. Over the dark crowd of heads on the street, one could just see the people in the court, as well as someone sitting at the top.
Lu Xinran looked past the Qi family members and directly at Song Junyan. As if he felt being scrutinized, he narrowed his eyes and raised his head to look in her direction.
Through the crowded crowd, the sunlight cast a shadow on the teahouse window, making it difficult for him to see her expression at that moment.
But thinking about what happened the night before when he was drunk, he instantly hooked his thumb.
Why...why did he have to complain to her with his eyes?
It was clear that they only had a verbal engagement and they were not that familiar with each other.
And, most importantly, it was just a small matter, why... did he act coquettishly with her? !
The more he thought about it, the more he felt his cheeks getting hot. He tried hard not to change his expression, and still looked dignified and stern.
Lu Xinran smiled in her heart again. Ever since she saw his arrogant and proud look, he was no longer noble in her heart.
Zhang Shui'er looked at her in confusion. After such a long time...how come she didn't hear what was in her heart? Aren't people always very talkative? Could she really have resisted eating the big melon back then?
She turned hesitantly to look for the answer from Lu Xinlan, but Lu Xinlan just smiled and gave her a look.
Since the system was upgraded twice, her inner voice is no longer revealed to the world like before.
Now, most of the time they can only hear the sound of her eating melons. Nine out of ten sentences like the one where she complains about Song Junyan in her heart can no longer be heard.
But they couldn't hear it, Song Junyan listened to every word.
The more he listened, the worse his expression became, and he was about to lose his cool and noble image.
