Chapter 198 Love Letter
Jiang Panyu released Lu Xiaojing and returned to school to continue his classes.
While distracting himself and letting the melon-eating system keep an eye on the development of the plot, what happened next was not what Jiang Panyu expected. After Ma Lian got the money. She took the money to buy writing brush, ink, paper and inkstone, and then began to copy scriptures day and night. Thinking that she was going to please Old Madam Xia, Ma Lian put all her energy into copying.
In addition to having to devote her energy to embroidering the cheongsam, before Old Lady Xia's birthday, Ma Lian worked overtime and slept less than four hours a day. She finally managed to get everything done, with big dark circles under her eyes.
The scriptures were the first to be copied. Lu Xiaojing kept urging her to finish, so Ma Lian gave her the copied scriptures.
As soon as she got the scriptures, Lu Xiaojing immediately contacted Jiang Panyu, and the two of them got together to study Ma Lian's handwriting.
Jiang Panyu didn't understand anyway. After studying the handwriting, Lu Xiaojing gave her evaluation with a sneer, saying that Ma Lian was born with evil intentions.
I don't know how she figured it out. Jiang Panyu stared at the words until his eyes were almost crossed, but he couldn't tell any difference from ordinary words.
Lu Xiaojing is worthy of being a teacher in the art department. After studying Ma Lian’s handwriting for two days, she was able to copy it almost exactly.
Jiang Panyu put two identical characters together and they looked almost real. He showed his ability to forge characters.
As planned, Lu Xiaojing copied Ma Lian's handwriting, wrote several letters, and then sealed them in envelopes. Only one useful letter was kept, and the rest were hidden by Jiang Panyu.
Then time passed and it was Mrs. Xia's birthday. Although she was over fifty years old, she paid special attention to dressing up. She wore a fully embroidered cheongsam on her birthday. It looked beautiful, but a little too grand.
Lu Xiaojing watched all this with a cold eye, going through the motions without any real effort. When it came time to present a gift, she actually took out a scroll of scriptures and said it was for the old lady to pray for blessings.
Of course, this is not the volume that Ma Lian copied. Lu Xiaojing found another student to help copy it, and it was done for a small amount of money. Anyway, Lu Xiaojing would never give anything for the Xia family in her life.
After the dinner, Xia Ting'an and Lu Xiaojing left. On the way home, Xia Ting'an looked at Lu Xiaojing's face and asked her, "Xiaojing, what's wrong with you? Why have you been so indifferent to me recently? What did I do wrong?"
"It's okay. I just have some troubles at school. You don't have to worry about me. I will adjust my mood after a while." Lu Xiaojing's excuse was very perfunctory, and she didn't care whether Xia Ting'an believed it or not.
Xia Ting'an kept frowning after hearing this. He didn't know what had happened to Lu Xiaojing. Since some time ago, Lu Xiaojing refused to have close contact with him.
At night, the two of them lay in one bed, and it seemed as if there was a galaxy between them. Lu Xiaojing didn't want him to touch her, and she always had different excuses, such as her stomach was uncomfortable, her period came, or she was in a bad mood.
Xia Ting'an initially thought that it was because Lu Xiaojing spent too much money on that cheongsam and was upset, so she was angry with him.
During this period, Xia Ting'an has been trying to please Lu Xiaojing gently and carefully, but the effect is minimal. Lu Xiaojing seems to have forgiven him on the surface, and they usually have something to talk about when they are together, but once they are about to have close contact, Lu Xiaojing is unwilling.
Xia Ting'an couldn't help but think that Lu Xiaojing was too angry this time. How could he coax her back?
The couple returned home. Lu Xiaojing put down her handbag, turned around to collect her clothes, and prepared to wash up and rest.
Xia Ting'an saw a scroll of scriptures next to Lu Xiaojing's desk. It can be seen that Lu Xiaojing attached great importance to it. She not only wrapped it in a book cover but also put it in a camphor wood box.
This camphorwood box is specially used to store some important books because it is not easily eaten by insects.
Usually, it contained house deeds, passbooks, some important documents, etc. But now that Lu Xiaojing attached so much importance to a scripture, Xia Ting'an felt something was wrong.
He subconsciously looked at Lu Xiaojing and saw that she was busy packing clothes. He opened the scripture and as soon as he saw the handwriting, Xia Tingan knew that it was not written by Lu Xiaojing.
Who wrote that? Xia Ting'an continued to read with confusion on his face.
There was a "bang" sound, and something fell out of the book and landed on the ground. Xia Ting'an quickly looked up at Lu Xiaojing. Lu Xiaojing was no longer in the bedroom. She was busy cleaning the house!
Xia Ting'an reached out and picked up the thing on the ground. Was it a letter?
Xia Ting'an felt very strange holding the letter, because there was neither a postmark nor an address on it, but the recipient column clearly stated "Lu Xiaojing".
He brought the envelope close to his nose and sniffed it, and he could smell a faint scent of magnolia. This felt even more strange because Lu Xiaojing never used perfume.
Xia Ting'an looked outside again and saw Lu Xiaojing chatting with Meng Ke and others. He hesitated for a moment, but still opened the letter.
Dear Lu Xiaojing:
When you see this love letter, I can tell you that I have liked you for a long time.
As for why I like you, I pondered this question for a long time, but in the end I still couldn't figure it out.
Thinking back, when did I start to like you?
Maybe it was the smile you gave me when I looked back at that moment, maybe it was your fragrance that I accidentally smelled when I passed by you, maybe it was your elegant and ladylike temperament, maybe it was the heartbeat that made me fall in love with you.
I know I shouldn't fall in love with you, but as I miss you again and again, I realize that I love you so much that I can't control myself.
Maybe you will find it ridiculous, but there is nothing wrong with love. Maybe I was born with the wrong gender. If I were a man with a fortune, I would probably do everything I could to snatch you away from you.
But I am neither a man nor do I have countless wealth, so I can only watch you silently in the dark.
I hope you won't be angry. I won't disturb your life. I just hope you can be happy every day.
Love you Malian! ! !
When Xia Ting'an saw the content clearly, his eyes widened.
〣(oΔo)〣
This is a love letter full of affection. The lingering and touching feelings on it make people see at a glance the strong and passionate emotions in the heart of the person who wrote the letter.
The writing style is very good, but the person who received the love letter is my wife, so the feeling is not very good.
What’s even worse is that the person who wrote this love letter to his wife is a woman, and the meaning of this love letter is very straightforward: I haven’t given up, I still like you, and when I have money, I will snatch you away!
Xia Ting'an felt very bad and thought it was ridiculous. How could someone, especially a woman, come to steal someone's girlfriend so openly? Xia Ting'an didn't know whether he should cry or laugh. Was he ignorant?
Are mistresses so arrogant these days? If he remembered correctly, this Ma Lian was the female craftswoman who made cheongsams for his mother.
Xia Ting'an compared the handwriting on the love letter and the scripture, and then he found that they were written by the same person. Was this a way of expressing love through the scriptures?
Don’t mistresses hide their feelings nowadays? She's openly trying to steal someone else's girl because she's afraid that her legal husband won't know about it, right? !
Xia Ting'an felt so panicked and insecure. He finally understood why Lu Xiaojing had been ignoring him for a while. Someone must be trying to steal his girl away! ! !
