Chapter 8 Feeding the Guinea Pigs (I)
Such a willful and frivolous woman should be knocked out and made to lie down quietly.
Dingxiang urged and asked again and again, and Jing Cang had no choice but to go visit Yu Fei.
Yu Fei did not want to invite Jing Cang over in such a radical way. She wanted to use the method of fasting to gradually win his sympathy, and then feed him the pigs when he was least prepared.
But it's too late!
After the banquet, the Yu family's spies in the government came to report that in the evening someone had gone to denounce the Yu family for secretly hiding the dignitaries listed in the wanted notice.
The government has always received a lot of news like this, which is difficult to distinguish between true and false. It was already late at night, and the Yu family was the richest family in Shu County, so they couldn't just send a small errand boy to search, so the prefect would send his county magistrate to bring people here tomorrow.
The first to strike wins, the last to strike wins. Jing Cang has been staying at the Yu family for a long time, and his notice has been posted outside for a long time, but no one in the Yu family has ever reported it. Yu's father is afraid that the government will suspect that the Yu family has ulterior motives towards Jing Cang, so he plans to take the initiative to invite the officials to identify him tomorrow morning.
As the head of the family, he returned from abroad today and reported to the authorities tomorrow morning. The authorities would have nothing to say. Yu Fei was just a young girl who had just come of age, so it was understandable that she did not dare to make her own decisions.
Moreover, she had just performed a marriage proposal tonight. She fell in love with the handsome brother at first sight and asked him to stay in the mansion for a while. Even if Jing Cang knew his identity, he would not blame her.
After all, the Yu family saved his life.
The most urgent task is to successfully trap Jing Cang tonight! Once Jing Cang's identity is recognized and he leaves Yu Mansion tomorrow, it will be difficult to get close to him again.
Yu Fei heard the sound of a wheelchair rolling across the ground outside the door. She stepped on a stool, grabbed a white silk hanging from the beam in a circle with both hands, and rushed in, sobbing and shouting, "Don't stop me. Everyone in the mansion knows that I'm an unwanted lady. What's the point of me living..."
"Miss, no, absolutely not..."
The maids held her legs and called out to her in panic.
Jing Cang looked at this chaotic scene, feeling powerless.
If Yu Fei was really his sister, he would decisively tell his servants to get out of the way and let her hang herself.
The thunder was loud but the rain was little. I wanted to die so much that I cried so hard that everyone in the mansion knew about it, like a child who cries when adults don't fulfill his wish.
But since he was staying at Yu's house, he still had to maintain courtesy as a guest to the host, and this incident was caused by him.
Jing Cang advised gently, "Miss Yu, your body was given to you by your parents. You will only hurt them by doing this." He motioned the servant to push him over the threshold and into the room. He looked directly at Yu Fei and sighed, "Fate cannot be forced."
Jing Cang is the kind of person Yu Fei hates the most. He is always talking about etiquette, benevolence, filial piety and the principles of morality. He is extremely rigid and rigid. According to her, you can only tell whether a forced melon is sweet by taking a bite.
However, she always remembered her silly and sweet personality in front of Jing Cang. When she heard the word "parents", she lowered her eyes sadly and said very disappointedly: "My mother died early, and my father was busy with business all year round. I finally met you, but you, you don't like me at all..." She glanced at him resentfully.
Jing Cang remained calm and said calmly, "Miss Yu, you said you like me, but it's actually no different from you liking a pot of flowers or a painting. You don't understand the growth process of flowers, nor do you know the strokes of ink and the ending of paintings. You just think they are beautiful, and it's the same for me."
He sighed slightly: "You are still young now. When you think back on your foolish behavior today, you will regret it."
Yu Fei widened his eyes and pretended to be half confused and half understanding.
She was confused and asked for an explanation: "Brother, what you mean is that if I meet someone better looking than you in the future, I might transfer my affection to someone else?"
Jing Cang nodded.
She had some misunderstandings, but a person's character is judged by his appearance. She is already fifteen years old, and perhaps in the future she will be a woman who only loves a man based on his appearance.
Yu Fei saw the perfunctory and contemptuous look on Jing Cang's face, and felt angry: he was showing off his culture and using the style of the Spring and Autumn Annals, while others could not hear that he was secretly saying that her love was superficial.
It indirectly implies that she is a superficial person.
Ding Xiang saw Yu Fei tugging at the white silk cloth, as if to vent her anger. Her daughter was very smart, so she could understand that Ah Cang meant that her love for him was superficial.
The young lady was in a bad mood, so she quickly interrupted, "Young lady, please come down quickly. The old man was so angry when he found out that you were going to do this that he almost fainted."
Yu Fei came back to her senses and immediately got into the role. She said with a guilty look on her face, "Daddy..." She burped for real, "It's all my fault. I got drunk and went crazy. I couldn't think straight for a while."
"Miss, it's okay as long as you come to terms with it now." Dingxiang stretched out her hand, trying to help her down.
Yu Fei was still holding onto Bai Ling, staring straight at Jing Cang, "Brother, can you stay and talk to me for a while?"
He had been arguing with her for most of the day. Obviously, Yu Fei didn't want this kind of conversation. Jing Cang guessed that she wanted him to be alone with her.
Drunkards are really troublesome. Seeing that she was not going to come down unless he agreed, he hesitated for a moment and nodded, "Okay."
Yu Fei fell to the ground and the servants left.
"Brother, can you hug me?" When they were alone, she made an even more excessive request.
Jing Cang glanced at Yu Fei speechlessly.
If his legs were healthy at this time, he would definitely leave Yu Mansion without looking back, and would not even think of offering his beauty to repay a favor.
He said in a cold voice, "Miss Yu, you are drunk." He turned the wheelchair and wanted to go out. "It's late at night. It's not appropriate for a man and a woman to be alone. I'm going back."
"Brother, please don't." Yu Fei grabbed the armrest of his wheelchair, forcing him to turn around and face her, and asked in a half-drunk voice, "Didn't you say you treat me as your sister? What's wrong with asking your brother to hug me when you're in a bad mood?"
She smiled shyly and proudly: "Could it be that you have some thoughts about me and are afraid that you can't control yourself, so you don't even dare to hug me?"
As expected, a hint of sarcasm appeared on Jing Cang's cold and handsome face, as if he was saying that she was a toad dreaming of eating swan flesh.
He tapped the armrest with his knuckles impatiently, "Then I'll hug Miss Yu for a while, and then I can leave, right?"
"Yeah." Yu Fei's smile was as sweet as drinking honey.
Jing Cang did not move, and said stiffly: "Come here."
"Grr, grr..." Yu Fei covered her mouth and leaned over, pretending to vomit. She staggered to the table and picked up a green grape from the plate, "Brother, let me eat something sour to relieve the pressure... and then I'll hug you."
Jing Cang frowned in disgust. She reeked of alcohol, and she hoped she wouldn't vomit on his clothes.
Yu Fei glanced at the look of annoyance on Jing Cang's brows and hummed smugly in her heart: Not only do I want to hug you, I also want to kiss you and kiss my pig into your belly!
