Chapter 190 The White Lotus Cousin in Ancient Chinese Literature (19)
There is a ten-mile peach forest in Huguo Temple, but at this time of year, there are only green leaves and late peaches that have not been picked in time, so there are not many people.
Baishan was guarding not too far away, with a vigilant look on his face.
"Brother Hanzhang, what do you want to tell me?" Lin Jinse suddenly felt a little uneasy.
If her emotions were shock, sadness, and disbelief mixed with a sense of certainty that everything was settled when she saw Cui Ling holding Su Yu before, then at this moment, she was more filled with panic.
It was as if he could sense what Cui Ling wanted to say in advance.
These were definitely not the words she wanted to hear.
Cui Ling walked at a steady pace and slowly stopped. In front and behind him were lush peach trees, with the sweet scent of peaches filling the air. There was no one else around, and the two stood facing each other.
Lin Jinse felt even more uneasy.
The woman with a pretty face and graceful figure shed her previous pretentious coldness, revealing a bit of the confusion and immaturity that belonged to a girl of this age.
"Brother Hanzhang..."
Cui Ling interrupted her calmly: "Miss Lin, I will get straight to the point."
Brother Hanzhang and Miss Lin have different degrees of closeness. It can be seen that this brother-sister relationship is only unilaterally called by Lin Jinse, and Cui Ling does not agree.
Lin Jinse's face turned pale and she nodded quietly.
Cui Ling said straight to the point: "Do you like me?"
Lin Jinse was startled, then lowered her eyes and hummed softly.
Cui Ling did not comment and continued to ask: "Why?"
The paleness on Lin Jinse's face was quickly covered by a red cloud, and her voice was as thin as a mosquito: "Why would there be a reason for this kind of thing?"
Cui Ling was puzzled: "If I remember correctly, I haven't met Miss Lin very often. There must be a reason why Miss Lin likes me."
He naturally asked about the reason and wanted to solve the problem from the source.
The autumn wind blew up a piece of fallen leaves on the ground, making a crackling sound.
Lin Jinse's heart was also chilled by the autumn wind.
"Can't I like you if we haven't met for a long time? I, I just like you. I have liked you since the first time I saw you."
At that time, Cui Ling was only six or seven years old. His face was not as handsome and mature as it is now. He was still childish, but he had a serious face like a little adult, standing in front of Lord Cui and reciting the scriptures of sages.
She and her mother passed by and took an inadvertent glance at him. Her little heart was filled with the little brother. From then on, she would sneak a peek at him from afar every time she went to Cui's house.
All these years have passed, but she has never forgotten that day.
★Did you like him/her the first time you met him/her?
Cui Ling frowned and finally came to a conclusion: "You like my face?"
Lin Jinse: “???”
"Cough... cough cough!" Su Yu, who was eavesdropping on their conversation through the system, almost choked on her saliva.
What kind of straight man statement is this from the male lead?
How can such a person be the male protagonist? Is he really not afraid of choking the female protagonist to death? The world consciousness is really blind.
"Cousin, are you okay?" Bai Shan asked with concern.
Su Yu was just choked and shook her head, "It's okay, don't worry."
After she recovered, she pleaded, "Can't you let me go over and take a look? I'm a little worried about them. My cousin is very straightforward, please don't make Miss Lin angry and run away."
Bai Shan hesitated for a moment, shook his head, and said dutifully: "The young master said he wanted to talk to Miss Lin alone, and no one can go over."
Su Yu's worried gaze passed through the woods, but was blocked by the layers of peach trees, and she looked worried.
Bai Shan didn't understand and couldn't help asking her, "Cousin, don't you want Miss Lin to be angry and run away?"
Su Yu didn't understand why he asked that.
"Of course not."
Bai Shan's eyes widened a little: "Why? Do you want the young master and Miss Lin to be together?"
This question is very strange.
"Miss Lin and my cousin are a perfect match, why wouldn't I want them to be?"
Bai Shan took a breath and trembled: "Then, then do you like me, young master?"
Su Yu was stunned, and then her cheeks flushed. She hurriedly denied: "How could I like my cousin? My cousin and I have nothing wrong. I only have admiration for him."
Bai Shan's expression was blank, and for a moment he thought there was something wrong with his ears.
But how could that be?
He asked persistently, "If you don't like the Master, why did you send him a purse? Why did you take the initiative to go to the Treasure Pavilion to see the Master? And why did you hug the Master just now?"
There are many subtle moments that can only be understood intuitively, but unfortunately I cannot list them all.
More importantly, Baishan always felt that the atmosphere when Su Yu and Gongzi were together was so sweet that it could make one's teeth fall off.
Hearing these questions, Su Yu's eyes flickered, and she explained shyly and awkwardly: "I gave my cousin a purse to thank him. The eldest prince also had one. I went to see my cousin in the hope that he would forgive me. The eldest prince was also there. As for what happened just now, I was too scared and panicked..."
Her meaning was very clear, she didn't like Cui Ling.
Bai Shan was struck by lightning. Is the CP I am supporting fake?
But how could this happen? How could this happen?
Baishan recalled the time that the young master and his cousin had spent together, and he couldn't believe that the cousin actually didn't like the young master.
The system sighed: [Another victim. ]
Su Yu hit it: [Why are you sighing? Don't let your elbow turn outward. ]
The system hums: [This is not called being unfaithful, it's just pure sympathy. Do you dare to say that you didn't flirt with the male protagonist? ]
Su Yu said frankly: [I flirted. ]
System: […So you spread the sugar and then said it was fake, the CP fans are really innocent.]
Su Yu is shameless: [But I never admitted it. ]
[Not only that, the male protagonist has never admitted it, we are just cousins. ]
[Baishan's comment is just overthinking, it has nothing to do with me. ]
[Besides, the only person I have ever liked is the eldest prince.]
[The eldest prince is proactive and handsome, has a dignified appearance, is well-mannered, has a noble status, and may even become the emperor. I like him very much and I wish I could be with him right now.]
[I only wish your heart is like mine, I will never let you down.] Su Yu held her face with an intoxicated look on her face.
System retching: [yue～]
Su Yu is about to give birth too.
It was not easy for her to brainwash herself to this extent for the sake of the mission. God knows how much willpower she had to exert to resist adding five fingerprints to the eldest prince's face.
No matter how shocked Baishan was, the conversation in the peach forest continued.
"Isn't it?" Cui Ling analyzed seriously, "Miss Lin said that she liked me the first time she saw me. At first glance, you didn't know my past or my personality. You only saw my appearance. If you didn't like my face, what else could it be?"
Lin Jinse was unable to refute this statement.
Cui Ling continued: "Appearance is the most untrustworthy thing. Some people are beautiful but have a vicious heart, while others have flaws in their appearance but are kind by nature. After a hundred years, they will all turn into beautiful women with withered bones, no different."
"After thinking this through, Miss Lin, do you still like me?"
