It took several days.
Cai Junze finally arrived at Jizhou City with Lu Qingyan.
Everything went smoothly along the way.
I didn't encounter any gangsters.
This was also Cai Junze’s first time in Jizhou City. After arriving, he first found an inn to stay in and was not in a hurry to go to Lu’s Mansion.
Lu Qingyan returned to the Lu Mansion first.
Seeing her come back, Niu Jiashi asked, "Where is Cai Junze?"
Lu Qingyan replied indifferently: "At the inn."
Then he said, "He said he would come over tomorrow."
Niu Jiashi's eyes flashed and he said, "I'll wait."
Cai Junze stayed in the inn for one night.
The next day, I left the inn and went to Lu's mansion.
The Lu Mansion is so magnificent?
Cai Junze was surprised to see the grand gate of Lu Mansion.
However, considering that the Lu family is the richest man in Jizhou City...it is understandable.
Moreover, Jizhou City is also the provincial capital!
Upon hearing that Cai Junze had arrived, Niu Jiashi asked Lu Qingyan to take Cai Junze to the planned side hall and he would wait there.
Lu Qingyan took a deep breath, her nerves a little tense.
Then she came outside and received Cai Junze.
"Your Lu Mansion is quite grand." Cai Junze said.
Lu Qingyan pretended to be calm and said, "So, have you changed your mind?"
Cai Junze shook his head and said, "The Lu Mansion is good, but it's not mine after all. If it's not mine, no matter how good it is, I won't covet it, so..."
Lu Qingyan sighed softly and said, "Let me take you around the mansion first."
She was not in a hurry to take Cai Junze to the side hall that Niu Jiashi had asked her to take him to, but instead took him for a stroll in the mansion, delaying it as long as possible.
After all, the present time may be his last time...
Thinking about these things, her mood became complicated and heavy.
"Why do you look unhappy?"
Cai Junze noticed her mood.
Just now, she behaved quite normally.
However, as they walked around, he noticed that her expression became increasingly serious.
Lu Qingyan regained her composure and said, "I'm going to die soon, how can I be happy?"
Cai Junze didn't know how to respond to her, and his heart was a little moved.
The Lu Mansion is quite big and it took me half a day to finish visiting it.
Moreover, there are still many places I haven’t visited.
Finally, Lu Qingyan led Cai Junze to the side hall.
Along the way, her nerves became even more tense.
Whatever he wanted to say was stuck in his throat.
In fact, she wanted Cai Junze to run away.
But, thinking of Wen'er...
Her thoughts were put to rest again.
Cai Junze naturally noticed her gradually tense mood.
Although I was a little suspicious, I didn't think too much about it.
Finally, he followed her to the side hall.
When they arrived at the side hall, Lu Qingyan asked him to sit down and poured him a glass of water.
Cai Junze reached out to take the water cup, and then Lu Qingyan's hand suddenly shook, and the cup fell and shattered on the ground. Lu Qingyan hurriedly said, "I'm sorry!"
Then, he actually squatted down and picked up the broken pieces on the ground.
Cai Junze said: "Just let the servants do these things."
At the same time, I was surprised.
Because Lu Qingyan's recent reactions have been a little abnormal.
Lu Qingyan said, "It's okay, I can clean it up myself."
He actually cleaned up the debris on the ground with his own hands and swept it with a broom.
Seeing this, Cai Junze asked curiously, "Do you usually do these things yourself?"
Lu Qingyan shook her head and said, "No, but you are a special guest, so, so..."
After cleaning up the debris, she washed her hands and poured him a cup of tea.
"Why are your hands shaking?" Seeing that her hands holding the teacup were shaking a little, just like before when she broke the cup, Cai Junze couldn't help but speak frankly.
"I, I'm not feeling well, you know..." Lu Qingyan felt that she was extremely nervous at the moment.
Cai Junze took the teacup but did not drink it. Instead, he placed it on the table beside him. He said, "Take out the contract you prepared and let me see it."
He wanted to see what was written in her contract.
Read it and then decide whether to sign it or not.
Lu Qingyan asked, "Why don't you drink tea?"
Cai Junze said: "I'm not thirsty, I'll drink later."
Lu Qingyan was a little helpless and could only go and get the written contract and show it to him.
Cai Junze took it and took a look. There were several pages with densely written words. After reading it, he found that it was similar to what she had told him before. Then, he raised a few objections and asked her to revise it. He said that he would only sign it if she made changes, otherwise he would not sign it.
Lu Qingyan didn't seem to care about this and persuaded him to drink tea.
Cai Junze picked up the cup and prepared to drink tea.
Lu Qingyan watched from the side, staring at him intently.
Feeling her gaze, Cai Junze always felt that something seemed wrong, so he didn't drink it and put the cup back.
Seeing this, Lu Qingyan couldn't help but frown and said, "Why don't you drink?"
Cai Junze raised his eyes, looked at her, and said, "Qingyan, you seem a little different today than usual."
He felt that her recent series of behaviors were not normal, unlike her usual self, and a bit weird, which made him alert.
"Uh, is there, is there?" Lu Qingyan forced herself to calm herself down.
Perhaps, in this life, only this time would she be so nervous when facing Cai Junze.
Moreover, although she was aware of her own nervousness, she was also somewhat...unaware.
