Chapter 35 Hair
Nan Wenqi turned his head and saw Nan Zhiyan, and his expression darkened.
"Master Ulaf told you to investigate the governor?"
It seems that Nan Wenqi has been to Duke Ulraf. Nan Zhiyan was not surprised to hear Nan Wenqi's questioning.
"Father, I am not qualified to investigate the Prime Minister."
Wende was a high-ranking official of the empire, a member of the upper class of the nobility. She was just a student, not even a member of the parliament, so she was indeed not qualified.
Nan Wenqi chuckled and walked behind Nan Zhiyan.
She casually stood up the photo that Nan Zhiyan had taken, and lightly touched it with her fingertips. The woman's smile was out of place in the silent atmosphere.
"It's Di Wen, right? It was him last time, but isn't there something behind this, you, Yan?"
Nan Wenqi patted Nan Zhiyan's shoulder and asked with a smile.
Di Wen is indeed very suitable, with his noble status and important position, as the Minister of the Anti-Corruption Supervision Department and the Inspector General of the Empire.
But how this person got to the top, probably only Nan Zhiyan knows it, Nan Wenqi has dealt with Di Wen before.
He has certain abilities, but they are really limited. Such a person can unexpectedly catch spies who are in contact with the rebels.
He also successfully won the favor of Duke Ulraf with this move. No matter how you look at it, it is unlikely that Devin could have done it on his own.
Nan Wenqi didn't mind Nan Zhiyan's secret tricks. On the contrary, he admired Nan Zhiyan's actions.
"As expected of my daughter."
Nan Wenqi clapped his hands, laughed out loud, and looked at the photo on the side.
"But Yan, no matter what, you have to be obedient, right?"
Being too smart can easily lead to losing control, but Nan Wenqi is not worried about that now.
Nan Zhiyan also followed Nan Wenqi's gaze and looked over. His eyes fell on the photo, but they were out of focus.
"I know everything, Father."
Stroking Nan Zhiyan's long hair, Nan Wenqi frowned.
"It's not good to have hair that's too long, cut it."
Of course Nan Zhiyan couldn't refute, he just watched quietly as Nan Wenqi said this and walked out.
Did she only realize it now? It was slower than she expected.
Nan Wenqi's words soon took effect, and soon Sui Yu and his men walked in.
Nan Zhiyan sat in front of the mirror, wearing an ankle-length white ruffled nightgown.
There was a shallow scar on the side of her pale face, which was quite conspicuous.
Sui Yu's gaze fell on the scar, and then he looked at Nan Zhiyan in the mirror.
"Did the young lady not believe what I said that day?"
The question was asked in a gentle voice, as if he was just asking Nan Zhiyan if he needed a cup of hot water.
He just lowered his brows and looked a little hurt.
Not understanding why Sui Yu asked this, Nan Zhiyan frowned slightly.
"You think too much. Just follow the butler."
Looking at his long hair being cut off strand by strand in the mirror, Nan Zhiyan replied casually.
Since taking her and Nan Zhixing back, Sui Yu has not been seen for the past two days.
Nan Wenqi has never mentioned Sui Yu's whereabouts, and this is not the first or second time.
Nan Zhiyan suppressed the inquiry in his eyes and said nothing more.
However, the person standing behind Nan Zhiyan and cutting Nan Zhiyan's hair felt a little regretful when he saw the smooth black hair of his subordinate.
Such beautiful black hair, I don't understand why Earl Taran asked to cut it off.
But Nan Zhiyan knew why. This was Nan Wenqi, who was expressing his dissatisfaction with her for pushing Di Wen to the stage without telling him.
However, this dissatisfaction was far less than Nan Wenqi's idea that she was more valuable.
So Nan Wenqi just had her hair cut.
Soon, a thick layer of black hair piled up on the ground. From a distance, it looked more like a layer of high-quality, smooth and soft satin.
A hint of pity flashed across Sui Yu's eyes, but when he looked up at Nan Zhiyan, his eyes dimmed again.
The originally waist-length hair was cut to below the shoulders. At Nan Wenqi's request, the hairstylist put hairpins on both sides of Nan Zhiyan's hair.
She tucked all the hair on both sides behind her ears, revealing her smooth forehead, without leaving out even a single strand of hair.
"Miss Taran, someone will deliver the headdress later. The Earl has instructed that you must keep your makeup elegant and decent."
"Um."
Nan Zhiyan nodded, stood up and walked inside. Someone would clean the place up.
The person standing nearby was about to sweep up Nan Zhiyan's fallen hair when he was stopped by Sui Yu.
"You guys go out first, leave this to me."
The man was slightly stunned, looked at the hairdresser, and walked out.
After everyone left, Sui Yu leaned over, knelt on one knee, took off the white satin handkerchief in his hand, and picked up the black hair scattered on the ground.
The soft touch made Sui Yu's lips curl slightly, and then he held it tightly in his palm.
St. Derek's Homecoming Day is always a little more lively than usual.
But such a lively scene does not include any corner of the college.
Luo Xin returned to the E-level student apartment in St. Derek, chewing on a piece of dry bread in his hand.
She didn't expect that the prices in Urlaf would be so expensive. Even a small piece of bread like this cost one hundred star coins.
The wounds on her body were still aching, but Luo Xin had no time to care about anything else. Now, even her survival was almost a problem.
After buying the public school uniform, the money that Ulraf brought with him was almost gone.
She had to find a part-time job as soon as possible, and she had to graduate successfully from this public school no matter what.
Only in this way can she have the opportunity to enter the House of Representatives and change her mother's slave status.
Touching the silk handkerchief in his pocket, a smile appeared in Luo Xin's eyes.
Master Lord is indeed a very good person.
But when he thought of Lorde, Luo Xin inevitably thought of another girl.
The faint minty scent still lingered between the wings of his nose, and Luo Xin's eyes darkened.
She was a little confused. That person seemed to have no ill will towards her, but was just purely indifferent.
Just as he thought of this and was about to go out to find a part-time job, Luo Xin saw Nan Zhiyan standing at the gate of Critavis Palace not far away.
But at a glance, Luo Xin noticed that Nan Zhiyan seemed to be a little different.
It was not until she got closer that she realized it was hair.
This person cut his hair, probably to prevent the hair on the sides of his ears from falling down. Nan Zhiyan wore a beautiful headband.
The round and full white pearls inlaid in Nan Zhiyan's ink-like long hair bring a great visual impact.
Nan Zhiyan didn't wear glasses today, and her long and curly eyelashes cast a shadow under her eyes.
The beautifully shaped Ruifeng eyes had an indifferent expression, and the amber pupils were almost transparent in the sunlight.
Luo Xin paused slightly. She had seen that headband before. Once, when she passed by two B-level students, she accidentally glanced at it. A picture of this headband was displayed on their terminal panel.
Three hundred thousand star coins, if she remembered correctly.
However, from the exclamations and praises from the two B-grade students, we can also tell that this headband is worth a lot of money.
It was indeed very beautiful. Luo Xin walked forward, chewing the dry bread that was hard to swallow in his mouth.
But it is an undeniable fact that she is not as pretty as Nan Zhiyan.
After all, when anyone around saw her for the first time, what they noticed was not Nan Zhiyan's headband.
But, her face.
As Luo Xin walked this distance, she secretly glanced at Nan Zhiyan quite a few times.
She could even hear a few quiet exclamations and discussions.
Perhaps it was because Nan Zhiyan had never worn any accessories on his body in the past, this change surprised many people.
