Chapter 282 Who Wants to Be Your Friend?
"Who wants to be friends with you?"
Jiang Hao said this and pushed Song Wan'er away.
"Ouch—" Song Wan'er slammed into the door, cried out in pain, and complained softly, "If you don't want to, then don't want to. Do you really think I need a friend like you?"
"What did you say?"
Jiang Hao's eyes suddenly became more dangerous.
"Nothing, nothing." Song Wan'er quickly changed her words and said, "I mean, it would be such a pity if you don't want to..."
Although Song Wan'er spoke softly just now, Jiang Hao had excellent hearing and heard it clearly. Now, seeing her lying with her eyes open, he couldn't help but sneer.
The girl from the Song family may seem innocent, but she is actually very deceptive.
He tells lies without even thinking them through.
Seeing this, Song Wan'er was about to say something when she heard footsteps approaching outside. Her maid Jinshu asked outside the door, "Miss, why are you shouting? May I come in?"
Jinshu said this and reached out to push the door.
Jiang San, who is so old, is still staying in the house. Song Wan'er doesn't want anyone to see a stranger appearing in her house in the middle of the night.
But Jiang Hao is not a pushover. If Jinshu pushes the door in now, he will definitely be in trouble and his life will be in danger.
Song Wan'er quickly said, "No, it's okay. I just bumped into you accidentally. You don't need to come in."
Jinshu heard this and asked worriedly, "Where did you get hurt, young lady? Do you want me to call a doctor? Have you applied any medicine?"
Song Wan'er said, "It's okay, no need to call a doctor. I have medicine in the room and I applied it myself. Go to bed quickly. You have to get up early tomorrow."
"Okay then." Jinshu stood outside the door for a moment before slowly retreating.
Song Wan'er heard the footsteps fade away and secretly breathed a sigh of relief. She said to Jiang San, "It's late. It's not good for you and me to be alone in a room and be seen by others. You should leave quickly."
Jiang Hao said unhappily, "If you tell me to leave, I have to leave. Why?"
"I'm doing this for your own good," Song Wan'er said. "You don't want my brother to find out you broke into the Song residence at night and start another dispute, do you? Jiang San, you're no longer a rebel or bandit. You need to change your ways. You're about to be conferred an imperial title. If the emperor finds out about your breaking into a private residence, even the greatest achievements you've made will be wasted. They'll all be used to offset your guilt, and you'll regret it!"
When Jiang Hao heard her say this, he actually had the illusion that she was doing this for his own good.
But he denied it, "If you're afraid of death, then so be it. Why are you talking so much?"
"I am afraid of death." Song Wan'er did not deny it, "But can you really not listen to a word I say?"
Jiang Hao didn't say anything, but just looked at Song Wan'er with wolf-like eyes.
Song Wan'er was anxious and flustered, "Besides, think about it, is it really a face-saving thing for you to stay here and stare at me?"
"You--" Jiang Hao was irritated by Song Wan'er. He was too lazy to talk nonsense with her and turned away.
It would be easy for him to kill her.
Killing her would only vent his anger temporarily and would also offend King Chang'an, which was not worth it.
Thinking this, Jiang Hao stopped entangled with Song Wan'er and directly climbed out the window.
Seeing Jiang San actually leave like this, Song Wan'er was immediately delighted and said, "Goodbye, I won't see you off."
Jiang Hao jumped out of the house through the window. When he heard Song Wan'er talking, he suddenly turned around and looked at her.
Outside the window, the night was dark and the shadows of the trees were tangled. A young man in purple stood under the shadows of the trees, looking at Song Wan'er with dark eyes, "Remember, my name is Jiang Hao."
Song Wan'er was stunned at first, then she said "Oh" and murmured, "I know."
She was just more accustomed to calling him Jiang San.
Because when they first met, he said his name was Jiang San, so even though her sister later told her that his real name was Jiang Hao and what he had done in Xizhou,
When Song Wan'er saw him again, the first thing she blurted out was still "Jiang San."
After Jiang Hao said that, he jumped onto the roof and disappeared into the night.
Song Wan'er was afraid that he would come back, so she immediately went over to close the window and bolted the door. Then she raised her hand to wipe the sweat from her forehead, breathed a sigh of relief, and walked to the couch and sat down.
She thought about it and originally wanted to tell her brother that Jiang San had come tonight, but then she remembered that her brother had been very busy with her coming-of-age ceremony these days, and Jiang San's status was different now. They, the Song family, were just merchants, so it was better not to make enemies with him again.
Song Wan'er thought that Jiang San did not kill her or hurt her tonight. She thought that the grudge they had made before was not that big. With King Chang'an around, Jiang San should not do anything reckless.
Thinking this way, she felt that it was better to have less trouble than more, so she decided not to cause trouble for her brother.
Song Wan'er was tired and sleepy, and soon fell asleep hugging the pillow.
The next day, before dawn, Jinshu, Luo Shang and others knocked on the door to wake her up and began to help her wash and change clothes.
On the other side, the Chang'an Palace.
Huo Zheng had to attend the morning court today, so he got up very early. Chunzhi wanted to go to the Song residence early to see if there was anything she could do to help, so she got up with him.
The morning light has not yet arrived outside the window, but the candlelight in the house is bright.
Chunzhi helped Huo Zheng put on his court robes, tied his hair and put on a crown. She was already very skilled at these things, and the couple had a tacit understanding.
The maids came in to help with washing and brushing their teeth, and they all kept their heads down and said nothing, being very tactful.
Chunzhi said to Huo Zheng, "I'll take Xiaoxing back to the Song residence with Yanran and the others in a while. You can come directly to the Song residence for the banquet after court."
Huo Zheng hummed, "I remember that."
Chunzhi changed her clothes and saw Huo Zheng out. The maids and servants held lanterns to light the way.
When they arrived at the gate, Huo Zheng jumped on his horse and went into the palace with two attendants.
Chunzhi stood in front of the door for a moment, and after watching Huo Zheng ride away, she turned and walked inside. When she was almost at the main courtyard, the morning light began to dimly light up, covering the courtyard.
Huo Yanran came forward with a few maids and called out, "Sister-in-law."
"Sister-in-law got up so early." Huo Yanran walked quickly towards Chunzhi, "Did you just send Seventh Brother out?"
Haruji nodded. "I was just about to send someone to check if you were awake, but I didn't expect you to have already washed up."
"I don't want to get up so early either." Huo Yanran yawned. "Wan'er has repeatedly asked me to go to the Song residence early today..."
After Song Wan'er came to the capital, she had little contact with other noble ladies. The ones she had the best relationships with were all in the Chang'an Palace.
"Since we're already up, let's go to the Song residence early." Chunzhi said as she took Huo Yanran into the main courtyard and went to the side room to see if Xiaoxinghui and Nian'er were awake.
Today is Song Wan'er's coming of age, which is a great day. Chunzhi plans to take the two little ones with her.
Huo Yanran walked into the side room, looked at the two little ones who were too sleepy to open their eyes, and asked Chunzhi: "Sister-in-law, will Yuzhu go to the Song residence with us today?"
If it weren't for Gu Yuanjia's incident, Yuzhu would definitely go to the Song residence today.
But now she has to take care of the seriously injured Mr. Gu, so it's hard to say.
Chunzhi thought about this and instructed Cui'er beside her, "Cui'er, go ask Yuzhu if she's free to go to the Song residence today for Wan'er's coming-of-age banquet."
