Chapter 1067 A single encounter with a scholar can ruin one's life (17)



To Lin Xuan, those young ladies who were infatuated with his poetry and songs were all fools. After deceiving so many people, he lost interest in them and thought they were all idiots who didn't deserve his attention.

As for this Cailian... even the young lady doesn't fancy her, how could he possibly fancy a maid?

He dared not do anything to the young lady, but he could still hold the maid's hand, hug her, and so on.

The two of them were talking and holding hands.

"It's good, but I love you. I want to be with you forever, I want to marry you, and I want to be with you forever."

It has to be said that Lin Xuan is truly skilled at sweet talk.

"If it weren't for you, I wouldn't want to get married. Cailian, let's forget about being a mistress. Just marry me and we'll be together for life, okay?"

Lin Xuan looked at her with deep affection, making Cai Lian blush and feel shy.

"Young master, you should also think about our future. My young lady is extremely wealthy. As long as you are with her, your studies will be much smoother."

She likes Young Master Lin, but that doesn't mean she wants to be the wife of a poor scholar.

Sun Yue treated Cai Lian very well, trusted her completely, and doted on her like a younger sister. She did none of the things that servants should do, and was practically the mistress of her courtyard.

Cailian is used to a life of luxury, never lifting a finger. She can order whatever she wants from the small kitchen. If she goes to Lin Xuan's house, she'll have to live a hard life.

Cailian herself was well aware that she was the young lady's head maid and would definitely become the son-in-law's concubine in the future.

In wealthy families, maids served their husbands during their daughters' pregnancies. After all, it's better to have someone close to you than someone else as a concubine, right?

Therefore, Cailian wanted to make a name for herself in Young Master Lin's heart as soon as possible, while also making Young Master Lin feel a little bit of resentment towards Miss. She had to strike the right balance.

Only if Young Master Lin passes the imperial examination and gains a better social status will she be able to live a good life in the future.

As for what she should say to her mistress, of course she should say that she and her mistress are like sisters, and that she hopes to be with the person she loves. She is willing to do anything for her mistress.

He was born for his mistress, he would die for his mistress, and he would give everything for his mistress's happiness.

Just as Cailian had thought, Sun Yue trusted her implicitly and was happy to have such a good friend.

The two of them were just using each other, without a trace of sincerity. However, they pretended to be genuinely in love, and they were very confident in their acting skills, which led to their current appearance of mutual affection.

“I don’t need her money. I can pass the high school entrance exam without her.”

Lin Xuan disliked this statement, as if he absolutely needed Sun Yue's money to pass the imperial examination. While it was true, it didn't mean he wanted to hear it. Some people are unwilling to admit their own problems.

"Yes, yes, Cailian is wrong, but Miss is so devoted to you. Wouldn't it be bad if you let her down?"

"Young Master Cailian knows your feelings, that's good enough. Just write a letter, okay? Please, please, Young Master, you must make sure Miss gives you a token."

When Cailian saw the look of disgust in Lin Xuan's eyes, she knew that she had achieved her goal, so she quickly tried to coax Lin Xuan.

Cailian began to place her hand on Lin Xuan's shoulder... The two got closer and closer, making Sun Jin feel somewhat nauseous.

After a long pause, Lin Xuan finally agreed, her face brightening. "Alright, then I'll reluctantly write a letter for Cai Lian's sake, but I want to write one for you first, expressing my feelings for you."

Lin Xuan looked at Cai Lian with deep affection, led her to a tea stall, and asked Cai Lian to take out a brush, ink, paper and inkstone. He began to write, and while writing, he teased Cai Lian, making her little face blush.

So, is Lin Xuan's affection for Cai Lian genuine?

Of course not.

Just as Cailian was self-aware, he naturally looked down on Cailian, who was born a maid.

He knew he had to do this if he wanted money; otherwise, how could he get to know Sun Yue through Cailian, and how could he get Cailian to help him willingly?

The two of them were just using and scheming against each other. They were both cunning and manipulative, and the naive and innocent Sun Yue was naturally the only one who could fall into their trap.

"Cailian, this is a letter and a poem for you. You mustn't show it to anyone else."

Lin Xuan wrote the letter for Cai Lian first, instructing her not to show it to anyone else. Cai Lian felt a sweet warmth in her heart and nodded shyly. Next, Lin Xuan wrote the letter for Sun Yue.

That was a deep affection, but because of their different social statuses, he could only bury it deep within. Perhaps he could only see her again when he was in high school. He only hoped to have a beloved item from his beloved so that he could relieve the pain of longing.

It's well written; I guess he put all his talent into this.

"Young master, shall I head back now?"

Lin Xuan looked at her with reluctance, "I really don't want you to leave, you are my true confidante."

He can spout sweet words without hesitation.

"Young master, please don't forget Cailian in the future. I'm just afraid that you will abandon Cailian once you have Miss. But Miss really loves you. Cailian is willing to do anything for you and Miss."

Sun Jinxian returned home and found Xueyi.

"Second sister, what do you suggest we do?"

Upon hearing this, Sun Xueyi flew into a rage, furious. "Of course we should arrest them on the spot! Sending them directly to the authorities is deceiving my older sister!"

Sun Jin originally wanted to do the same, but, "I'm afraid that my older sister won't believe me and will still help Cailian, and in the end she'll run away too."

I thought I'd better see what the older sister does first, then I can expose her. If she's really foolish enough to give me the thing, then I... won't be lenient.

If his sister truly didn't care about her reputation, then all he could do was tell everyone that his older sister was seriously ill...
