"No! Impossible! Lu Zhan is not that kind of person!"
Yao Wenbin, who was originally listening intently, immediately jumped up and almost broke his wife's jaw.
He couldn't guarantee anything else, but he could absolutely guarantee that Lu Zhan's character was good!
But no matter what, apart from the two answers contributed by his wife, he really couldn't think of any other reason why Lu Zhan would say such a thing.
Based on his trust in Lu Zhan's character, he could only regard it as the couple's angry words during a conflict!
Even though they knew Lu Zhan was still angry, they might have a quarrel when they met, not to mention that there was Fan Shengnan beside them...
Meeting at this time would not only affect the relationship between the couple, but also be detrimental to Lu Zhan's recovery. It would be more appropriate for them to meet after Lu Zhan's anger has subsided and his injuries have almost healed.
Yao Wenbin made up his mind that he should notify Xiao Shao when necessary so as not to let her worry in vain, but he also had to persuade her when necessary, and it would be best if he could let her stay in Ning City and wait for Lu Zhan to come back.
Shao Jingque had no idea of the twists and turns in Yao Wenbin's mind. All she wanted now was to see Lu Zhan appear in front of her alive with her own eyes, so that she could put her mind at ease and sleep peacefully at night.
Seeing that she wouldn't listen, Yao Wenbin could only find some objective reasons to delay the time:
"Well, most of the roads and railways in Henan Province have been destroyed by floods, so it will take time to repair them. I'll help you arrange it once the roads are open."
"Thank you, Brother Yao!"
With Yao Wenbin's words, Shao Jingque felt much more at ease. She asked:
"Can I contact Lu Zhan now? Can I give him a call?"
Even if she couldn't see Lu Zhan for the time being, she wanted to hear his voice first. She had dreamed of Lu Zhan several times, and every time he was in danger. Every time she shouted loudly to remind him, he was always silent and did not respond, as if he didn't hear it at all.
Yao Wenbin paused for a moment, not knowing why he suddenly thought of Fan Shengnan, and shook his head subconsciously the next second:
"He's still in bed recovering from his injuries and can't answer the phone. I only learned about his condition after contacting the doctor there. Once he's recovered and can get up and move around, I'll tell him to contact you as soon as possible."
Seeing Shao Jingque nod because of his trust in him, Yao Wenbin felt a little guilty. He decided to find an opportunity to talk to Lu Zhan immediately.
He should put away his youthful temper. If he gets angry and runs away with such a good partner, he won’t be able to find one in the future!
After seeing Yao Wenbin off, Shao Jingque finally had a sincere smile on his face, which had been gloomy for many days.
The farce in Fengxi Hall also came to an end after Yao Wenbin came. Qu Jingyun and Qi Guangyao, who were suspected of creating this farce, were nowhere to be seen. Yue Jialiang and Qi Mingyuan were toasting with the guests at the table, and bursts of laughter could be heard from time to time, as if nothing unpleasant had happened just now.
When Yue Feiying saw Shao Jingque coming back, she quickly went over to her and pulled her into the dressing room to ask her in detail:
"Que'er, you were really quick to react just now. Tell me, were you inspired by me and stole the trick of 'making friends out of nothing'?"
You know, she just used the trick of "calling a horse a deer", but she didn't expect that her bestie would immediately draw inferences from it and use the trick of "making friends out of nothing". No one knew that at that moment, the pride in Yue Feiying's heart was as endless as the surging river. In this world, only Shao Jingque could have such an amazing level of tacit understanding with her!
"But what about that soldier who came over later? Why did he come to your defense right away? Is he an actor from your art troupe? He acted so realistically, and his serious expression scared that guy named Qu!"
Kui Shao Jingque was so smart that he directly gave himself the title of fiancée and created a fiancé out of thin air. Yue Feiying almost couldn't help laughing out loud on the spot.
Shao Jingque was speechless. Sometimes she really wondered how Yue Feiying could have fooled Qi Shengzhi with her brain...
"Brother Yao is really a soldier. If he were an actor in the art troupe, how could Qu Jingyun not recognize him?"
Yue Feiying suddenly realized:
"If you hadn't mentioned it, I would have forgotten. Qi Shengzhi's stepmother seems to be the deputy director of the art troupe. I was wondering why she was so arrogant when she saw you. It turns out she was just putting on airs!"
"Hey, that's not right. Is he really a soldier who can help you lie?!"
Shao Jingque twitched the corners of his mouth, smiling somewhat awkwardly:
"Well, do you remember the first time we met at Yue Mansion?"
Yue Feiying nodded:
"Remember, you were singing nursery rhymes so loudly downstairs, I was embarrassed and resisted opening the window. Then you mentioned the Imperial Court Jade Wine, and I couldn't help myself..."
"What?! You heard it a long time ago, but you pretended not to hear it?! Wouldn't it be even more embarrassing for me to sing in circles around your house?!"
Shao Jingque couldn't believe her ears. It was hard for her to be worried about Yue Feiying and run to Yue Mansion to find her early in the morning. This heartless guy actually thought she was embarrassing and hid behind the curtains without saying a word!
But now was not the time to settle old scores with Yue Feiying. She still had something important to tell her...
"Forget it, I'll let you go for now."
"But that wasn't our first meeting. Didn't Yue Mansion hold a dance the night before? Qu Jingyun brought me there too."
“…”
"Do you remember when you climbed over the balcony to the other room and I 'picked' you up from the ground?"
Yue Feiying's eyes became clearer with Shao Jingque's detailed description.
She was drunk that night and her only memory before the blackout was kissing Qi Shengzhi's little mouth. Now, listening to Shao Jingque's story, the originally vague memory slowly became clear again.
She suddenly remembered and exclaimed:
"I remember now! You were there that day, and there was a man next to you!"
Shao Jingque's face began to heat up silently, and he stammered:
"...I...he...well...then..."
"What? What did you say?"
Yue Feiying suspected that there was something wrong with her ears, or that Shao Jingque had cotton in her mouth. She listened to her mumbling for a long time, but couldn't hear clearly what she was saying!
"I said—"
Shao Jingque took a deep breath, gritted his teeth, closed his eyes and said crisply:
"That man is Lu Zhan, I slept with him!"
The small dressing room suddenly fell into silence. Shocked by this explosive news, Yue Feiying could only hear two words echoing in her ears:
Sleep, sleep, sleep...
