Zhan Xinyue said goodbye to Sheng Tunan, carrying a bag of fruit, and went to Ling's house calmly.
Zhan Xinyue did not inform Ling Kong and Zheng Jie in advance, and planned a surprise attack to allow Ling Kong to prepare, which would give her a better chance of winning.
According to the information Sheng Tunan had obtained, Ling Kong must have been at home playing his guitar that Sunday.
There was a lotus pond next to Lingkong's house. As soon as Zhan Xinyue arrived at the lotus pond, she heard someone calling her.
"Sister Xinyue, are you here to pick lotus flowers too?" He Yaqin was on holiday at school the other day, and she came back to rest and prepared to pick some lotus flowers to bring back to school to distribute to her classmates.
The tall girl ran over with a bunch of lotus flowers. She picked out the most beautiful one and handed it to Zhan Xinyue, "Sister Xinyue, this is for you."
"Thank you." Zhan Xinyue held the fruit in her left hand and took the lotus with her right hand.
He Yaqin then saw the fruit in Zhan Xinyue's hand, "Sister Xinyue, where did you buy the watermelon? It's so big. And you are very strong. You can easily lift it with one hand."
"I bought it by myself." Zhan Xinyue said, "My father sent it here for my business."
Zhan Xinyue originally brought some pears, but Shen Min'e thought that when visiting someone's home, he should bring some good things, so he replaced the pears with big watermelons.
"Sister Xinyue, where are you going with the watermelons?" He Yaqin was used to being straightforward, so she asked whatever was on her mind.
"To Marshal Ling Feng's house. A few days ago, Marshal Ling Feng's lover invited me to her house." Zhan Xinyue did not hide it.
He Yaqin nodded. He didn't like Lingkong's air of arrogance, and he liked Zheng Jie's pretentiousness even more, so he didn't want to join in the fun. He chatted with Zhan Xinyue for a few words and then went to pick lotus.
He Yaqin wanted to go, but Qu Ningning, who was eavesdropping in the pond, wanted to go very much.
Qu Ningning took a break every day. After lunch, he ran to the pond and prepared to pick some lotus flowers to make fried lotus flowers. Lingkong liked the fragrance of lotus flowers and especially loved this delicacy.
After picking lotus flowers, Qu Ningning was about to go out when she heard that Zhan Xinyue was going to the Ling's house. She knew Ling Kong was at home, and she was so angry that she wanted to go to the Ling's house immediately.
Looking down, she found that her clothes were stained by the lotus leaves and there was mud on her feet. Thinking about how Lingkong had not taken care of her these past few days, Qu Ningning took a few deep breaths, calmed down, and decided to go home first, fry the lotus crisps, change her clothes, and dress up before coming back.
When Qu Ningning hurriedly ran home, Zhan Xinyue was already standing at the door of the Ling family with a calm mind.
"Zhang Zhi, what's your name?" Zhan Xinyue was a new face, and the Ling family guards had never seen her before, so they stopped her at the gate.
"My name is Zhan Xinyue, and I was invited here by Marshal Ling Yuan's lover." Zhan Xinyue answered humbly.
Just as the guard was about to report the incident, Lingkong ran out barefoot and shouted excitedly, "Xinyue, you're finally here!"
Ling Kong has been training in the army for many years and is in good shape. He ran all the way here with a steady breath. When he saw the big watermelon in Zhan Xinyue's hand, he immediately reached out to take it: "Xinyue, come in quickly."
"Yeah." Zhan Xinyue threw the watermelon into the air.
"Xinyue, how do you know I like lotus?" Lingkong took the watermelon and was about to pick up the lotus.
"This is for you." Zhan Xinyue passed the thing that He Yaqin gave her to another hand, changed the lotus flower, and moved a little further away from Lingkong.
"Also, please call me Zhan Xinyue 땢志."
"Okay, Xinyue. But I think Xinyue is better. You are as beautiful as the moon in the sky."
Lingkong laughed, he liked Zhan Xinyue very much, and even thought her name was beautiful, and he liked to call her non-stop.
Zhan Xinyue hated this playboy's behavior, but thinking that she still had a mission to accomplish, she resisted the urge to leave and followed Lingkong into the house.
"Xinyue, I asked my mother to invite you over, but she didn't see you, so I thought you didn't know. So I thought if you didn't come over tomorrow, I would go to the Shen family to find you."
Zhan Xinyue was talking and followed Lingkong silently, thinking about how to borrow money to go to the study.
After entering the room, Lingkong asked Zhan Xinyue to sit down, gave the watermelon to the chef, and asked someone to make two glasses of watermelon juice.
"Xinyue, Xinyue, Xinyue," Lingkong saw Zhan Xinyue talking and wanted to tease her even more, calling her name with emotion.
Zhan Xinyue frowned, "Why do you keep calling me?"
"It sounds nice." Lingkong looked at Zhan Xinyue as if he was staring at prey, "Xinyue, do you think our names are particularly suitable? Together we get Xinyue Lingkong!"
Ling Kong moved closer to Zhan Xinyue while speaking, reaching out with his claws to tentatively grab Zhan Xinyue's hand.
Zhan Xinyue would never let him succeed, so she stood up and changed the subject, asking, "Is your mother at home?"
"My mother went to get her hair done." Lingkong shrugged, "She has no other hobbies except being vain."
"Here, watermelon juice." Lingkong brought two glasses of watermelon juice from the kitchen, one for himself and one for Zhan Xinyue.
Zhan Xinyue took it, put it to the tip of her nose, and the sweet taste of watermelon filled her face. There was no drug content in it, so Zhan Xinyue drank a large bottle without worry.
"So sweet." Lingkong smacked his lips. "This is the first time I drink such delicious juice. I've never tasted juice this sweet abroad. I know it's because I'm with a beautiful woman."
Zhan Xinyue rolled her eyes silently in her heart and said seriously: "Lingkong Zhi, I'm already married. Please make jokes at the right time."
"If you're like this, I'm leaving." Zhan Xinyue stood up and took a step forward to walk out.
She didn't really want to leave.
Zhan Xinyue also had some knowledge of psychology. She knew that if she tried to please Ling Kong in order to get the chance to enter the study, it would make him wary.
And most men are mean, they have a bad habit, the more they get, the more they want to conquer.
Sure enough, seeing Zhan Xinyue was about to leave, Lingkong immediately chased after her, his voice urgent and flattering, "Zhan Xinyue, I was wrong, I was too abrupt. Don't go, I just learned a new song today, I'll sing it to you, okay?"
Zhan Xinyue ignored him and walked forward coldly.
As they were about to reach the door, Ling Kong became anxious, "Zhan Zhi, don't leave yet. I have a gift for you, Zhang Zhongjing's Treatise on Febrile and Miscellaneous Diseases."
Zhan Xinyue stopped walking but did not look back, "I have this book too."
"But yours is the original copy, and mine is the only copy written by Zhang Zhongjing. It is the most comprehensive copy. The copy on the market is definitely different. I know you like Chinese medicine, and reading this copy will take your medical skills to the next level."
