On this night, Lu Sanlang noticed Luo Lingyu's good figure for the first time. The lake was cool and the reeds behind swayed like the tide. The lantern was thrown on the reed ground. The slender dancer Lian Qiniang, with sweat on her nose, leaned back with her shoulders drooped. After she bowed to the two gentlemen, she stopped talking. Chen Wang Liu Chu almost never spoke in front of outsiders. He stood quietly, like an invisible man.
The light from the lantern and the shadow of the water waves came over him. The girl's skin was as smooth as jade and water, emitting a soft light. Her neck, shoulders, chest, waist... Looking down bit by bit, in the darkness, Lu Yun could hear his own strong heartbeat.
Like green shoots emerging from bamboo shoots, spring has arrived, and they become more delicate day by day.
Her stature was better than that of other girls of the same age... Lu Yun's eyelids were shadowed by his long eyelashes, and he turned his eyes away as if nothing had happened when Luo Lingyu was embarrassed. In his mind, he suddenly thought of the times when she deliberately threw herself into his arms, and he felt...
Luo Lingyu glared at Lu Sanlang with great shame and anger, but saw that he lowered his head and seemed to be smiling.
Luo Lingyu: “…”
This person must have a brain disease.
It turns out that meeting Lu Saburo is not a good thing.
But the gentleman next to Lu Sanlang...is Chen Wang Liu Chu.
Luo Lingyu looked at the quiet Prince Chen. Liu Chu stood in the dim light, with a beautiful face, dark eyes, and a timid temperament. He must be a man who was completely suppressed by Lu Sanlang's eye-catching and romantic demeanor. When walking with Lu Sanlang, few people would notice that there was another man next to Lu Yun... Luo Lingyu felt complicated. She heard that this Prince Chen and Lu Sanlang have always had a good relationship? This man... really doesn't mind that girls only look at Lu Yun and never look at him?
Meeting Luo Lingyu's gaze, Liu Chu nodded slightly as a greeting.
Luo Lingyu: “…”
Well, this Prince Chen is also a weirdo, he hardly speaks, and those who don't know him would think he is dumb. But Luo Lingyu also met Liu Chu at the banquet of Prince Hengyang last time, and Liu Chu can speak, his voice is clear and not unpleasant. Why does he rarely speak?
But this is not the time to dwell on those things.
Luo Lingyu stared at Chen Wang Liu Chu, her beautiful eyes twinkling. In two days, the "Flower God Selection" will be held. Depending on the talent and the number of candidates, the "Flower God Selection" will take five days to complete. After the girls have finished competing, the gentlemen and girls will cast their votes for support. At the same time, there are five other celebrities to comment. The value of a celebrity's vote is twenty times that of ordinary gentlemen and girls. Who the five celebrities will invite each year will not be known until the end. But in order to get a higher number of votes, usually before the "Flower God Selection" begins, the girls from each family start to work hard to find a place for themselves.
Liu Chu's younger sister, Princess Pingning Liu Tang, also participated in this year's Flower God selection.
Luo Lingyu was scheming, so she asked Prince Chen in a joking tone: "Did Princess Pingning beg you to vote for her these past two days? You will help her, right? I think everyone in the royal family who has a quota will vote for the princess... That's great, if that's the case, the princess might be able to suppress Madam Chen and become the 'Goddess of Flowers' this year. After all, Madam Chen has won for three consecutive years."
Chen Wang Liu Chu smiled bitterly and shook his head. These past two days, he had indeed been pestered by his sister, who begged him to find out information from the celebrities who participated in the selection, such as Lu Yun...
Prince Chen's expression showed that Princess Pingning was indeed actively trying to get a spot. Luo Lingyu thought that Lady Chen must be the same. However, the identities of the royal sons and noble men often overlapped. The royal family of the Southern Kingdom and the aristocratic family of Jianye were related by marriage. A son could be Princess Pingning's brother or Chen Xiu's cousin, or he could have interests with other girls' families... At this time, who to vote for was the most troublesome thing for everyone.
Luo Lingyu enviously said, "That's great. I also want to have a brother. If I had a brother, he would definitely vote for me right now. It's a pity that I'm living under someone else's roof and can't ask for help from others."
Liu Chu was stunned: "..."
His inquiring eyes glanced at Lu Saburo beside him: What? Your cousin doesn't know what interest you have developed this year, and went to the "Flower God Selection" to win one of the five famous scholars? You actually don't give your cousin a break?
Lu Yun was calm and composed, but his peach blossom eyes slightly raised, the radiant color dazzled everyone else. With a little teasing and a little teasing, he flirted with Luo Lingyu lightly.
When their eyes met, Luo Lingyu was dazzled, her heart skipped a beat, her cheeks flushed, and she was annoyed: Why did he deliberately give her a glance?
Luo Lingyu suppressed her feelings and took her eyes off Lu Yun with difficulty, trying to force herself to pretend that she didn't see Lu Sanlang. She smiled at Chen Wang Liu Chu with a sincere heart and a little bit of the innocence of a little girl. Luo Lingyu said in a coquettish voice: "Lian Qiniang and I have practiced dancing for a long time. In fact, I am not bad... Young Master, Cousin, can I show you? When you are undecided, can you also consider me?"
Lian Qiniang was concentrating on being invisible. In the residual light, she saw the skirt of the girl in front of her fluttering and her long sleeves spreading like a crane. Luo Lingyu closed her eyes and recalled. When she closed her eyes, the shadow of light and water just supported her. King Chen stared at her, and Lu Sanlang's eyes, which had originally moved away, returned again and stared at her... chest.
The girl's waist was tied with a bodice, and when she closed her eyes again, her hands slowly raised. She turned her body, twisted her waist, tilted her head slightly, and raised one hand to the top of her head. When the action was frozen, the girl's starting position was over. Her hands were like blooming lotus flowers, her waist was as soft as cattails, and she looked at him charmingly. Luo Lingyu deliberately pointed her jade-green fingertips at Chen Wang in front of her...
King Chen did not move.
When the girl's fingertips were about to touch him, her robe flew up beside her, and Lu Sanlang stepped forward and grabbed Luo Lingyu's outstretched wrist.
King Chen: “…”
Luo Lingyu: “…”
Lu Saburo looked down at his hand holding the girl's hand, and his heart froze: What am I doing? Why did I step forward?
The three of them were silent for a long time. Luo Lingyu was frightened when she saw him. Her hand was grabbed by him, and her warm hand touched the hot hand of her lover. She shrank back because of the burn, and her fingertips trembled. Lu Yun held her hand tightly, and Luo Lingyu's cheeks began to burn. Seeing his gloomy face, the smile on her face was a little stiff, her lips were pursed, and her expression was embarrassed. Luo Lingyu glared at Lu Yun: Let go of my hand! Don't fight with me in front of other men!
