Miss Jun didn't want to talk to him at this time. She lowered her head, stood up, turned around and walked away.
Miss Jun turned around when she heard footsteps behind her.
"Prince, this time I will not follow you," she said.
"I'm here to ask you, why are you following me?" Zhu Zan said with a look of scrutiny in his eyes.
"I didn't follow you." Miss Jun said with a frown.
"Do you believe what you said?" Zhu Zan said, "Think about it honestly. From the beginning to now, why do you go wherever I go?"
Miss Jun sighed inwardly.
"Maybe it's fate," she said.
Zhu Zan clicked his tongue twice and was about to speak when he saw Miss Jun continue walking.
"Hey, hey." He followed and stood in front of Miss Jun. "Let me make it clear to you. You and I have nothing to do with each other. I won't pursue what you want to do. Don't let me see you again in the future."
The two have nothing to do with each other.
She has nothing to do with anything.
Those who knew her no longer knew her. This feeling really made her go crazy.
Miss Jun was not crazy, her tears were falling.
Zhu Zan was startled and jumped away like a wet cat.
"Oh my god, you're here again, again." He said, looking around, "This is not your Runan."
Miss Jun couldn't help but burst out laughing again and glared at Zhu Zan with some displeasure.
"You and I have nothing to do with each other. Why do you have to cry? Do you think that if you cry, I will soften my heart? Will things go as you wish?" Zhu Zan sneered.
That's true.
Cry a little. Others will not be soft-hearted, and things will not go as you wish.
Miss Jun raised her hand and wiped away her tears.
"I'm just crying over my red bean cake," she said, "Don't think too much about it."
Zhu Zan sneered again, and suddenly extended his hand and handed over a paper bag.
Miss Jun was stunned.
This is...
Red bean cake?
She looked at Zhu Zan with some surprise.
Did he just buy it?
For her?
"Don't think too much." Zhu Zan said, and stretched out his other hand and hooked it, "Take the money."
Miss Jun smiled again, took out her wallet, carefully counted out ten coins and put them in his palm.
Zhu Zan then handed her the red bean cake and left without saying a word.
"Hey." Miss Jun wanted to speak.
Zhu Zan raised his hand without looking back.
"Remember. It has nothing to do with us. Don't follow me anymore," he said.
Miss Jun did not follow and shook her head and laughed. She lowered her head and looked at the red bean cake in her hand, opened it, pinched a small piece and put it in her mouth.
Tsk…
Still not as tasty as before.
What a weird taste.
She walked along the street chewing slowly.
…
The Jinyiwei were surrounding an alley on all sides. Lu Yunqi then dismounted and walked in. The two Jinyiwei in front of the door opened it.
Lu Yunqi walked in. The concierge immediately came forward with a pile of notes.
"Sir, this is the visiting card sent in the past few days," he said.
One day, Lu Qianhu, who never received visitors, suddenly received officials here.
It was probably because that day a foreign official came with a beautiful maid, and the maid was accepted by Lu Qianhu.
Although Lu Yunqi had a bad reputation, he was in a very powerful position, which did not prevent many people from wanting to get close to him.
From then on, more people came to deliver letters, and Lu Yunqi occasionally saw one. But every time he met one of them, they brought with them beautiful women who served as maids.
Although only one out of ten could be favored by Lu Yunqi, it was enough to drive the officials crazy.
But today, before the concierge could even start reading the notes, Lu Yunqi waved his hand to stop him.
The doorman stepped back in silence, watching Lu Yunqi go straight to the backyard.
Walking into the inner house, the shadows of women in fragrant clothes were hidden in the greenery. Some were leaning on the railings, some were coming out from behind the trees, and some were running out of the house.
These women were of various sizes, some were sixteen or seventeen, some were twenty-one or twenty-two, and they looked nervous, shy, and enthusiastic.
Lu Yunqi glanced at these women one by one.
"I'm back," he said, a smile on his face.
As he said this, a woman came towards him quickly.
"Cloud Flag," she called out with undisguised enthusiasm.
Lu Yunqi reached out to catch her and held her in his arms. Although the other women were disdainful and annoyed, they also came over.
"Cloud Flag."
"Cloud Flag."
The sounds of orioles and swallows interweave, and the fragrance of orchid lingers.
Lu Yunqi smiled and opened his arms, hugging left and right.
"Let's have a feast," he said.
As night fell, the whole house was brightly lit, and maids came in and out from time to time, serving wine and food continuously.
"Yunqi, have another drink."
A woman spoke in Lu Yunqi's sweet voice while putting the wine glass to his lips.
Lu Yunqi drank the wine from the woman's hand without any hesitation, and kissed her hand after drinking it.
The woman hugged his neck happily.
The women on both sides looked at him with some shame, some disgust, and some dissatisfied.
Immediately two more people squeezed over.
"Yunqi, there's also mine." They said in a coquettish voice.
These women who were sent here specially had all received special training, and there were some at the table who had never seen such a scene before. Although they blushed and were at a loss, they still picked up their wine glasses and followed when they thought of their families' instructions and expectations.
Lu Yunqi accepted everyone who came to him, including wine and people. All the women wanted to squeeze into his arms, with sweet voices and Lu Yunqi's loud laughter filling the air. Suddenly, there was a creaking sound, accompanied by the women's screams, and the chair that Lu Yunqi was sitting on fell down due to the squeezing.
The women in his arms were all pulled down and fell into Lu Yunqi's arms, stacked together.
Lu Yunqi laughed even louder and simply grabbed them and rolled them to the ground.
The women's screams and laughter became even more chaotic, making the whole house become decadent.
As he was laughing, Lu Yunqi suddenly pushed the woman in his arms away.
"What time is it?" he asked.
A group of women also asked.
"It's already midnight." said the maids.
It's time to rest.
The women's expressions suddenly became tense, and they looked expectantly at Lu Yunqi who was still sitting on the ground.
Upon hearing this, Lu Yunqi jumped up.
"It's so late, we should go," he said.
Having said that, he stood up and went out.
The women stood up one after another.
"Cloud Flag."
They shouted to follow.
Lu Yunqi had already crossed the threshold and turned around after hearing this.
The women also stopped and looked at him expectantly.
"Yunqi." A woman shouted timidly.
Lu Yunqi looked at her, then glanced at the women, a smile on his face.
The women's expressions became increasingly delighted, and they couldn't help but take another step forward.
"I'm leaving." Lu Yunqi said, his eyes soft under the flickering light, and his expression still showing some reluctance. After he said that, he turned around and walked away quickly, leaving behind the women's attempts to keep him.
This is not a busy place. The streets are empty at 11 p.m.
Lu Yunqi walked along the street escorted by a team of Jinyiwei.
Although the Royal Guards did not make any major moves, they were obviously much more nervous than during the day.
Lu Yunqi often faced assassination attempts. It was okay for him to travel during the day, but traveling at night was even more dangerous.
The sons of the murdered officials, or perhaps paid desperadoes, lurked under the cover of night, waiting to strike a blow against this evil man.
"Sir, why don't you stay there when it's late in the future?" the close attendant couldn't help but say.
Especially since this has happened several times, and every time I go back and forth between the two houses at this point, the habit is convenient, but also very scary.
Perhaps because of the alcohol, Lu Yunqi's complexion was much darker than in the daytime. He half-closed his eyes and swayed slightly on his horse, feeling a little tipsy.
"No." He answered simply.
The follower didn't dare to say anything else. He held the Xiuchun Knife tightly in his hand and looked alertly in all directions.
Only the sound of horse hooves echoed in the street. Fortunately, there was no unusual movement along the way. The lights ahead gradually became brighter, and I saw the gate of Lu's house.
The Royal Guards who had been waiting in front of the door saw people coming. Some of them came to greet them while others opened the door.
The troops dispersed in front of the gate, and Lu Yunqi dismounted with the help of a Jinyiwei.
He became even more drunk and his steps were a little unsteady. He had to put his hands on his follower's shoulders. Just as he was about to step onto the stairs, a sharp voice rang out in the dark night, accompanied by the sound of breaking through the air.
The Jinyiwei on both sides immediately moved upon hearing the sound, and the Jinyiwei who was supporting Lu Yunqi pushed Lu Yunqi behind the horse at the same time.
The horse neighed and raised its front hooves, and an arrow pierced its body.
"There's an assassin."
Shouts rang out, swords were drawn, and countless people, both openly and secretly, ran towards the direction where the arrows came from. At the same time, more people surrounded Lu Yunqi.
