With some curiosity, Lu Wan and the maid went to the front yard.
When he pushed the door open, he saw Shen Yan sitting on a chair, playing with a small round box in his hand. Because it was too far away, Lu Wan couldn't tell what it was for a while, and asked Shen Yan curiously, "I heard that someone gave me a gift?"
Shen Yan was originally reading a book with his head down. When he heard this, he looked up at Lu Wan. His eyes narrowed slightly, giving people the illusion that he was angry.
But hasn’t Lu Wan seen Shen Yan angry enough times? There is always thunder and rain, so what is there to be afraid of?
She looked around the room but found no trace of gifts, then looked at Shen Yan in confusion.
Shen Yan paused.
He originally wanted to call the man over to question him, but when he saw Lu Wan's clueless expression, he really didn't know where to vent his anger.
Seeing that Lu Wan was about to ask about his gift, Shen Yan said in a very bad mood, "You went out today?"
Hearing this, Lu Wan glanced at Chen Yan with a guilty conscience, but he knew that if he asked this question, it was definitely not groundless, so he nodded obediently, "Well, I'm going out."
"Who did you meet?"
"My eldest brother."
Lu Wan answered again, and then as if she realized something, she looked at Shen Yan with wide eyes, "I am your retainer, not a criminal in Prince Shen's Mansion. Do I have to report to you if I go out to see someone?"
Besides, the expression on his face as if he was interrogating a criminal really made people feel very unhappy both inside and outside.
Shen Yan was originally sitting there asking questions, but when he heard this, he immediately raised his eyebrows, stood up and walked towards Lu Wan, “It seems that I have been too good to you these days, so I made you forget your identity.”
The hairs on Lu Wan's back almost stood up. She didn't want to admit it. Chen Yan explained her mental activities clearly. She still didn't give up and retorted, "Why didn't I find that you were nice to me? I——"
Lu Wan's voice stopped abruptly, and a round box was stuffed into her palm, which was the one that Shen Yan had been playing with before.
While Lu Wan was in a daze, in order to prevent Lu Wan from running away, Shen Yan had already placed his right hand on the back of her neck and slowly rubbed it, while taking advantage of the sound to speak, “Your eldest brother is the one who would give you this thing, who did you meet?”
Lu Wan smelled a familiar scent, first opened the thing and took a look, then looked at Shen Yan in confusion and asked, "Is this - jasmine powder?"
Chen Yan was almost pissed off by her and laughed, "Don't you know what others gave you? Why are you asking me?"
There was not much anger on his face, but his voice was full of suppressed anger. Instinctively aware of the danger, Lu Wan swallowed subconsciously and said nervously, "Let me think about it."
"Um."
Shen Yan's hand was still on Lu Wan's neck, blocking Lu Wan's escape route, and then he said casually, "Think about it slowly, I'll wait for you to come up with a reason to lie to me."
The warm feeling traveled along the skin to the brain. There were thin calluses on Chen Yan's hands from martial arts training, and when he touched the most delicate skin, it brought a slight tingling sensation.
Lu Wan tried hard to ignore the weird feeling, wondering who had sent her this bottle of perfume powder.
Just give it to me, won’t you avoid Chen Yan and hand it to me?
I had to let Chen Yan see it and go crazy on me.
That shouldn't be the case. She went to buy the powder secretly. If that person saw her looking at the bottle of powder, he must have followed her.
After thinking about it, Lu Wan's face became even more horrified.
When I go out, I wear men's clothes. Who would give a bottle of perfume powder to a man?
An answer suddenly popped up in her mind, but Lu Wan didn't dare to believe it. She looked at Shen Yan hopefully and asked, "Could it be that someone was sent to follow me and bought it to make me happy?"
Shen Yan raised his eyes and glanced at her, "Who did you offend outside? Don't you know it?"
If he had given this thing, why would he be angry?
Lu Wan's face suddenly turned pale.
It’s not Chen Yan, nor Lu Changxin, so there is only one person left.
Chen Yan noticed that Lu Wan was in a bad mood at this time. He first thought that he had frightened him, but then he felt that Lu Wan's expression was not frightened, so he frowned and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Who sent this thing?"
Lu Wan looked at Shen Yan, his eyes full of anxiety.
Chen Yan also realized the seriousness of the situation, and no longer felt jealous, and replied, "It was sent by Song Ping's attendant."
Lu Wan suddenly stumbled, and if Chen Yan hadn't caught her quickly, she would have fallen.
Lu Wan clenched his fists, "It's him."
In the restaurant, he had already recognized his identity, but he still said those words to Lu Changxin. So, was it that he remembered what he saw after he sobered up, or was he not drunk at all.
Chen Yan also realized something was wrong at this time, so he pulled Lu Wan to sit aside and poured her some tea. "What's going on? Why are you so scared?"
Lu Wan held the tea in her hand but had no intention of bringing it to her mouth. She lowered her brows, as if recalling the scene at noon.
"I went out today to see my elder brother. My elder brother and I had an appointment at a restaurant in the west of the city. I happened to run into the drunk Song Ping. Song Ping was drunk and mistook me for -"
She opened her mouth several times, but ultimately failed to utter the extremely insulting word in front of Chen Yan, so she could only continue, "My eldest brother hadn't come yet at that time, and I couldn't match his strength. Fortunately, my eldest brother arrived quickly, so I was able to open up about the matter."
