It turned out that the piece of colored glaze he gave her was not really from the Western Regions, but an unfinished product made in a workshop under his own name... Luo Lingyu was smart, and when she saw this workshop, she thought that if the colored glaze could really be mass-produced, then Lu Sanlang would not only get money, but he would also have a say in the flow of goods between countries... It was really enviable.

"How's your selection going, sister Yu'er?" The indifferent male voice behind her frightened the girl who was holding the pendant in her hand so much that her hand trembled.

Touching her chest that was beating violently, Luo Lingyu turned around and saw that it was indeed Lu Yun. Lu Yun had a cold expression on his face, and stood silently behind her with his eyelids drooping, like a ghost that suddenly appeared. No matter how good-looking he was, he would still be resented. Luo Lingyu annoyed him: "You scared me to death... But Brother Xuechen, all the glassware here is very beautiful, and I like them all. I will take my time to choose."

Lu Yun said calmly: "Okay."

Luo Lingyu looked at him strangely.

When Lu Sanlang usually talked to her, he always had a teasing tone, either disliking her or flirting with her. He was so serious at this moment, just like the noble and dignified Lu Sanlang she saw in front of outsiders. His attitude towards her was the same as that towards ordinary girls, and Luo Lingyu felt a little blocked in her heart and uncomfortable. She had just cried in front of Lu Sanlang, and she suspected that he didn't like her crying, but he was so cold, she didn't know what to say... Luo Lingyu turned her face away a little embarrassedly, lowered her head and continued to choose glass objects.

Standing behind her, Lu Yun said quietly, "Sister Yu'er, do you still remember the armlet I gave you?"

Luo Lingyu: “……!”

Her heart skipped a beat, and she tried to breathe as steadily as possible. Luo Lingyu calmed down and smiled, "Remember. The armlet that Brother Xuechen gave me also came from here, right? I like it very much."

The sun shone in through the window panes, and spots of light floated. Standing under the wall in the corner, the young man's face was divided by the sun, with his tall nose bridge, half bright and half dark. A hint of extremely sarcastic smile appeared at the corner of his lips. He put his hands behind his back, and in his wide sleeve pockets was the glass bracelet he took back from the old shopkeeper. He had already recognized a fact in his heart, but he wanted to hear what Luo Lingyu had to say - let's see what this cousin, who was sharp-tongued, could say to him!

Lu Yun said indifferently: "If you like it, why have I never seen you wear it?"

Luo Lingyu retorted: "Of course I like it, that's why I can't bear to wear it."

She turned around quickly and glared at him: "Brother Xuechen, why do you always mention that armlet? You gave it to me, you wouldn't want it back, would you? I was choosing Liuli, but you didn't help me choose, and you kept interrupting me. That's too much."

Lu Yun stood in the shadow at the foot of the wall, looking at her quietly.

Facing Lu Yun's eyes, Luo Lingyu's heart skipped a beat, and the fingertips that were caressing her beloved Liuli trembled. His eyes were calm, but she instinctively felt that he was angry.

A gentleman never shows his emotions. Lu Sanlang is a famous scholar of the time, and his every word and action is watched and imitated by countless people. Born into a wealthy family, with excellent family education, Lu Sanlang would not lose his temper in court when he got angry. However, his eyes, as cold as ice, stared at Luo Lingyu.

Lu Yun: "Find that armlet and show it to me."

Luo Lingyu's chest stagnated slightly: "..."

A person with an abnormal attitude is a demon.

She said angrily, "What are you doing? I didn't wear the bracelet today. You gave it to me, so it's mine. You don't want it back, do you?"

Lu Yun still stared at her: "Let me see where the bracelet I gave you is. It is the best-made one I have here, and I treasure it very much. Let me see it. You can pick three of the things here."

Luo Lingyu put down the colored glass in her hand uncomfortably. She had a hunch in her heart, but she didn't want to believe it. Her heart was beating fast, and her palms were sweating. She looked up, and changed the subject as if she had suddenly thought of something, saying, "How can I just take Brother Xuechen's things? In fact, Brother Xuechen, we are not that close... I just want to take a look at these colored glasses, I won't take them for nothing."

Lu Yun looked at her.

She looked back without looking away.

His eyes were burning, and the longer he looked at her, the more sweat she produced on her back. The two of them didn't speak, and both had some reasons to resist. At this point, each of them had already noticed and concluded in their hearts, but neither of them was willing to admit it. After a while, Luo Lingyu saw Lu Yun's lips curved into a smile, and he said again: "Luo Lingyu, let's take it slow. Today I must see the glass armlet. You know me, sweet words don't work on me, and jokes don't work either."

Luo Lingyu was angry: "I said I didn't wear it out! I stayed at home!"

Lu Yun raised his voice: "Then go back and take a look!"

He suddenly raised his voice, and his hidden anger could no longer be concealed. The gloomy and scolding look on his face was really scary. Although he did not raise his sleeves or move his feet, and did not touch Luo Lingyu with a single finger, Luo Lingyu was frightened and took several steps back. As for Lu Yun, Luo Lingyu disappointed him greatly, and she refused to tell him the truth even then.

She is still lying to him!

She could lie so confidently in front of him, so what did she do when he wasn't looking? Did she play with him like a little clown, and was she very proud of seeing him being seduced by her beauty several times?

Luo Lingyu couldn't win over Lu Yun after all.

The girl lowered her eyes: "That armlet...I lost it."

Lu Yun said coldly: "Then we will slowly finish the story of your lost armlet." He walked forward, Luo Lingyu retreated, but was still blocked by him. She trembled and dared not move, she was afraid that he would suddenly hit her... Lu Yun just lowered his eyes and said sarcastically: "It doesn't matter, Luo Lingyu. Keep dragging it out. I have one day to waste with you."

"We are going back to the Lu family now, to your 'Xuesuyuan', and call all your maids who are involved in this matter. Please make this story clear. We are driving now, and you have time to think about how to make up this story for me."

He was as ruthless as he was when he joked with her. Tears welled up in Luo Lingyu's eyes, but he seemed not to notice - Luo Lingyu only then recognized Lu Sanlang's true face.
