Chapter 139: The Greatest Scumbag
Liu Ningyan and Pei Xingju's affair was not hidden from the public, so the maid soon found out that the two were in Zhaiyue Pavilion.
When Zhuang Wan heard the news, she immediately put down her teacup.
"Let's go! It's time to live!"
She stood up with such rage that the maid was so frightened that she was stunned. Before she could figure out what she meant, she hurriedly followed her out.
Over here, in the Zhaiyue Pavilion, the red candles, gauze curtains, beauties, and incense create an extremely ambiguous atmosphere.
After Liu Ningyan finished her song, she walked over to sit across from Pei Xingju and asked, "What do you think of this song, Master Shen?"
"My black hair rustles, and I listen to the chill wind in the pine trees." Pei Xingju said, "I listened to Miss Ningyan's music tonight, and it was just like this poem. Miss Ningyan's music skills are superb, and the melody is ethereal and beautiful."
Liu Ningyan lowered her head and smiled. She picked up the white jade porcelain bottle, poured him a glass of wine, and then poured herself a glass.
"Mr. Shen is from Anzhou, so he probably has never tasted the Golden Plate Dew from our Liuli City. The name comes from an allusion."
"Oh? What's that story?"
Liu Ningyan said, "This has to do with a guest from the north who came when Liuli City was founded six years ago..."
She explained the origin of Jinpanlu in detail, while making light gestures on the table with her fingers.
Pei Xingju smiled, but his eyes were fixed on the movements of her fingertips. He saw clearly that Liu Ningyan had written two words - "partition wall".
The last two words of the word "partition wall" are "having ears."
He calmly lowered his long eyelashes and tapped the table with his bony fingers to indicate that he understood.
Across the wall, Shen Zongji sat in a chair. Before him was a glass mirror the size of a bowl. It was shaped like a trumpet, its end embedded in a tiny hole in the wall. The scene in the room was projected through the hole onto the glass mirror, allowing a clear view of what was happening inside.
At this time, in the opposite room, Pei Xingju and Liu Ningyan sat opposite each other. They were discussing a piece of music, Pei Xingju's face showing tenderness, while Liu Ningyan lowered her head shyly.
Looking at it this way, it seems like a pair of "dogs and bitches" in love!
Shen Zongji stared at the glass mirror without blinking, his expression becoming more and more ugly, and the aura around him becoming colder and colder.
The two people in the room were drinking and chatting. After about two quarters of an hour, Qingliu Ningyan suddenly stood up and sat next to Pei Xingju.
“Mr. Shen is offended.” She said in a very low voice.
Pei Xingju nodded, knowing she was putting on a show. Shen Zongji was watching from the next room. The two of them had already stalled for a long time, and if they continued like this, they would inevitably reveal their flaws.
In the other room, Shen Zongji's face was as black as the bottom of a pot.
Liu Ningyan was holding a wine glass in her hand, and then she raised her long sleeves to cover their faces, and leaned over...
“Master Shen, Ningyan will serve you another drink.”
Shen Zongji immediately closed his eyes and gritted his teeth: "What a bitch!"
The two people's words were transmitted through the glass mirror one after another.
"Mr. Shen, is he drunk?"
"Shen is already a little tipsy. The Golden Pan Dew of Liuli City is indeed as famous as it is said to be. The aroma of wine is so strong that it makes people want to drink more."
Liu Ningyan lowered her head. There was actually some distance between them, but from the side, they looked like they were sitting together. She held an empty wine glass in her hand, leaning forward slightly, covering it with her sleeve, as if she were feeding Pei Xingju some wine.
In this way, he drank two more cups in a dramatic manner, and a quarter of an hour had passed.
She began to get nervous and continued to write on the table with her fingers: What should I do?
Pei Xingju frowned and said nothing.
At first glance, he seemed calm, but those who knew him well would know that his brow was tense at the moment, and it seemed that he had already made the worst plan in his mind.
Shen Zongji, who was sitting next to him, also leaned forward slightly unconsciously, staring at the two of them, not missing any clues.
In this tense atmosphere, there was a sudden noise downstairs.
"How dare you, a mere maidservant, stop me? Get out of here!"
This coquettish voice was like opening a crack in a boiling steamer, and the atmosphere suddenly became relieved.
The three people in the attic breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.
In the compartment, the attendant asked, "City Lord, do you want to stop Miss Ruyi?"
Shen Zongji closed his eyes and leaned back, a smile of unknown meaning on his lips: "It's too late! No need, just let her go."
Downstairs, Zhuang Wan was stopped by a maid at the door. She arrogantly waved her away and rushed into the yard. She then lifted her skirt and trotted up the stairs. When she reached the door, she kicked it open with a bang.
She stood at the doorway with her hands on her hips, her hair standing on end in anger: "What an adulterous couple! They're actually meeting behind my back again!"
Pei Xingju pretended to stand up in a hurry, thought for a moment, and then put Liu Ningyan behind him.
He looked a little bewildered, and explained with a smile, "Ruyi, you misunderstood. I just came here to listen to Miss Ningyan playing the piano, and I have no other intentions."
Seeing him like this, Zhuang Wan secretly sighed. Pei Xingju's acting skills were truly remarkable. Three parts surprise, three parts fear, and three parts panic, while the remaining part was the tenderness of protecting Liu Ningyan.
She walked in: "I don't believe your nonsense! You said earlier that you would drink with Master Chen until dawn, and now, why are you hanging out here with Liu Ningyan?"
Zhuang Wan glanced at the wine glass on the table again. "Great! Wine, music, and a beautiful woman. Are you thinking about having some crazy sex after getting drunk?"
Her dark eyebrows raised, and she acted like a fierce woman: "You bastard, you actually lied to me like this!"
After saying that, he rushed forward and beat Pei Xingju.
She was acting like a spoiled brat, and her fingertips accidentally scratched the back of Pei Xingju's hand, causing a burning pain. Pei Xingju had no choice but to let her hit him for a while before simply grabbing her sharp claws.
"Is that enough?"
"Not enough!" Zhuang Wan was so immersed in the role at the moment that she couldn't stop.
Maybe because she moved too much, her bun became crooked and a strand of hair fell on her forehead. At first glance, she looked like a jealous little shrew.
Pei Xingju couldn't help but smile.
Soon, he suppressed his anger again and said to Zhuang Wan with a sullen face, "We are not what you think. If you continue to act like this, I will..."
"What are you talking about?"
"I......."
"Come on, can't you say it?" Zhuang Wan said to her angrily.
She suddenly covered her face with her hands in sorrow. "Back then, you coaxed me into liking you with sweet words. I originally wanted to live with you forever, so I eloped with you without telling my parents. But what happened later? After the rice was cooked, you actually said that you already had a wife and I could only be a concubine. You also coaxed me that even if I was a concubine, I would still be the woman you loved most, and that you would cherish me and love me forever. But now? What are you doing now? When you came to Liuli City, you were seduced by a vixen. You were in a passionate love affair with her under the flowers and moonlight, completely forgetting the vows you promised."
"You—" She glared at Pei Xingju, her lips trembling, "You are a hypocritical, duplicitous, hypocritical, false, treacherous, heartless, beastly, and unparalleled scumbag!"
Pei Xingju: “…”
The other two parties were stunned!
Zhuang Wan's acting was so convincing, and she spoke so fluently and without a breath, as if it had really happened. Liu Ningyan looked at Pei Xingju in disbelief.
Even Shen Zongji, who was separated by a wall, did not expect that Master Shen was such a person. He thought that he had bad character, but unexpectedly, Master Shen was even worse than him.
Pei Xingju had sharp ears and eyes, so he naturally felt the surprised and contemptuous looks from all around him, and his forehead was throbbing.
