She said sincerely: "I really came here to collect flower dew."

The girls were stunned, and then they saw her beautiful and half-distressed face. They felt embarrassed, as if their feelings were seen through and she was mocking them - "Are you saying that we are shameless and only know how to pester Cousin Yun? If you didn't come to find Sanlang, why didn't you go somewhere else to pick flower dew, but here? Isn't it for Sanlang, or for Erlang?"

Luo Lingyu was not shy under the criticism of the girls: "Second cousin is upright and calm, and third cousin is elegant and noble. They both have their own merits. I am new here, so I am not very familiar with them. But I don't suggest that you sisters go to visit them like this - Sanlang often plays outside, there are many banquets, casinos, and women outside, and Sanlang has seen and played everything. It may not be easy for you sisters to go and do good to him like this."

After she said this, the girls calmed down and actually listened to her words. They discussed hesitantly - "That makes sense."

"There are so many girls who admire Saburo..."

The rest of the words were no longer audible, Luo Lingyu bowed and turned away. It was already daybreak, the mist in the forest gradually dissipated, and everyone looked at her infatuatedly, seeing the back of the girl going away was slender, her posture was graceful, her long dress was flying... After an unknown amount of time, one of them sighed softly, and all the young ladies felt a little disappointed.

After leaving the sight of the cousins, Luo Lingyu quickened her pace with the flower bag in hand. She walked deeper and deeper into the flower forest, stepping on the flowers and leaves all over the ground, but she was in no mood to pick flower dew. She guessed that she had walked deep enough and the girls should not be able to see her. Luo Lingyu stopped, walked around a century-old tree, clung to the tree and quietly looked in the direction she came from. No one followed her. They gathered together and talked at the same time. Luo Lingyu patted her chest and smiled proudly -

She didn't go to "encounter" them by chance because she felt that she couldn't show her uniqueness if she went to see them in a crowd; but she was not convinced that other girls went to see Lu Saburo. But what she said was not wrong - if Lu Saburo really liked these cousins, he would have liked them a long time ago.

Luo Lingyu felt relieved and turned around to find a way to go back to her own courtyard, preferably without being discovered by Lingyu, the maid sent by the old lady. But when she turned around and saw the person behind her, she took a deep breath.

Under the blossoming peach tree, peach and apricot petals were falling in the air. Under the tree was a round stone table with four small stools. On the stone table was a pot of tea and a small teacup. The teacup was held in a jade-like slender hand, with even bones and clean knuckles. The owner of the hand was sitting in front of the stone table, with eyelashes that could cut off the sun's shadow. Under his eyelashes, he looked at her with a playful look that was almost contemptuous...

Luo Lingyu was stunned: "..."

"I am Jinyue, my maid, and I greet my cousin." The gentle greeting brought Luo Lingyu back to her senses. Luo Lingyu looked and found that behind Lu Yun stood a maid in green clothes with a slender waist, almond eyes and white skin. The maid stood behind her master, prepared tea for the table for her master, and then greeted Luo Lingyu with a smile. She had a very good demeanor and seemed to be Lu Sanlang's personal maid.

The personal maid was so beautiful...but Luo Lingyu didn't notice it at first, because Lu Sanlang was too dazzling. He sat there, shining like a jade tree in the breeze, blocking the brilliance of everyone around him. Let others stand with him, and look miserable.

Luo Lingyu suppressed her panic, knelt down and bowed quickly, saying softly, "Third cousin."

Lu Yun said calmly: "Yeah."

Luo Lingyu: “…”

She was constantly surrounded by the stunning gazes of the men. As long as she smiled, she could get a lot of money. There was never a day when Luo Lingyu greeted a man, but he sat upright, didn't even look at her, and gave her a casual "hmm".

Luo Lingyu brushed her hair by her ears and straightened her clothes. Despite Lu Sanlang's cold reaction, Luo Lingyu did not blush and retreat. She took two steps forward and continued to speak softly about her own affairs: "Cousin, I came here to collect flower dew, I didn't know you were here... What are you doing here, cousin?"

Lu Saburo's gaze slowly turned to her face.

The delicate flowers are reflected in the water, their colors are extremely beautiful. Standing under the tree, they are bright and beautiful.

Lu Sanlang's eyes were dark: "Guess."

Luo Lingyu's memory suddenly went back to the terrible first meeting last night - Lu Sanlang's two words "guess" successfully disgusted her.

Luo Lingyu could hardly hold back the smile on her lips: "Third cousin, are you here to enjoy the flowers?"

Lu Sanlang looked surprised and stared at her from head to toe. Luo Lingyu's heart skipped a beat, but she heard him say maliciously, "Guess again."

Luo Lingyu: “……!!!”

There was a chuckle from the side, and Jinyue stepped out to help the cousin out of the predicament kindly: "Don't blame me, my dear. Our husband likes to joke. He went to the academy to ask for leave from the teacher. When he came back, he saw the ladies talking in front and didn't want to go over. That's why I stayed here with you to wait... I didn't expect you to come over. It's fate that brings us together. Please sit down and have some tea with our husband."

However, Lu Yun's ruthlessness made it difficult to drink the tea. After a few more conversations, Lu Yun was lukewarm and Luo Lingyu was speechless, so she could only stand there awkwardly. At this time, a gust of wind blew, and the petals and buds on the branches fell like snowflakes, leaning towards the people under the tree. The wind blew her dress, and the cold air filled her neck. Luo Lingyu couldn't help but shiver slightly, covering her nose and sneezing. In the silent forest, she sneezed very loudly, and when Lu Sanlang looked over, she was instantly embarrassed and embarrassed, her blood seemed to flow, and her face was red. Luo Lingyu lowered her head and called out aggrievedly and helplessly: "Cousin..."

The voice is hoarse and soft, like the humming of a kitten, or like a feather gently touching the heart. Coupled with her messy hair and clothes, wet and pitiful eyes, and beautiful face...

Lu Sanlang raised his eyebrows and slammed the cup on the table, almost as if he was going to throw it: This cousin is really...

As Sanlang's personal maid, Jinyue understood Lu Yun's subtle emotional changes best. When Lu Sanlang raised his eyebrows, Jinyue stepped forward and expressed her kindness to the cousin: "The wind is strong in the forest. The cousin came here to collect dew. Her clothes are thin. If they are damaged by the wind, she will catch a cold. It will be bad for the cousin. Why don't you go back?"
