Lin Yanran walked in and saw Bei Mingxuan at a glance. The illness on his face was obvious. His pale complexion and handsome face aroused a touch of pity in Lin Yanran's heart.
Especially when she thought of the Ninth Prince whom her father often mentioned, she suddenly felt sorry for the man in front of her.
"Yanran, greetings to Prince Xuan." Lin Yanran bowed and lowered her head.
Changan looked at Lin Yanran with a smile, and whispered to Bei Mingxuan, "Bei Mingxuan is worried about you. What does this mean?"
[Of course, I acted well. She believed I was a dying man.]
Bei Mingxuan guessed what Chang'an meant. Her purpose was to match him with Lin Yanran. With a preconceived purpose, naturally all his thoughts would subconsciously go towards what he thought was the purpose at the first time.
"Miss Lin, there's no need to be so polite. This time, it's me who should thank Miss Lin for coming to my house."
"Yanran and Princess Xuan get along well and are willing to come to the mansion."
Chang'an watched Bei Mingxuan and Lin Yanran exchange polite greetings, and suddenly felt that this scene was very beautiful. "Looking at it this way, the man is as gentle as jade, handsome and clear-headed, and the woman has long eyebrows and a gentle look. It reminds me of the saying, 'Beauty gives the soul, and the heart is happy by its side.'"
"!!!" Bei Mingxuan looked up at Chang'an. She really dared to say that lust could make one's soul and heart happy. [Gu Chang'an, don't make trouble.]
"..." Lin Yanran blushed immediately, opened her mouth but didn't want to say anything, looked at Chang'an, and then at Bei Mingxuan.
"Miss Lin, please don't be offended." Bei Mingxuan said softly, "Chang'an is naughty and likes to joke around. He doesn't know the seriousness of the matter. I hope Miss Lin won't take it to heart."
"Princess Xuan is a true character, love..." Lin Yanran felt that she was becoming more and more unreasonable, as if what Changan said was true and she was willing to accept it. "I, I, that's not what I meant. I...Yanran said the wrong thing."
Lin Yanran exhaled heavily, her heart pounding.
"It was just a joke. I'm sorry Miss Lin," Chang'an said sincerely, sounding like an apology. "The prince admires Miss Lin's pipa playing. I hope Miss Lin can let the prince enjoy it. Chang'an can also benefit from it."
At this time, Bai Lu, who had been adding charcoal fire, moved a chair for Lin Yanran.
The pipa is Lin Yanran's favorite and also her pride. Once she starts playing it, her mind is naturally focused.
The big strings are as loud as heavy rain, and the small strings are as soft as whispers.
The sounds of the strings are mixed and chaotic, and pearls big and small fall on a jade plate.
Chang'an glanced at Bei Mingxuan. Seeing his focused look, he was really bewitching. He even felt that there was only Lin Yanran in his eyes and heart at this moment.
Suddenly, Chang'an heard that there seemed to be a wrong note in the sound of the pipa.
It’s not that she understood this, but if there was suddenly a pitch difference in the smooth and flowing voice, it must be wrong.
So he naturally glanced at Lin Yanran, and saw that her face was flushed, not knowing whether it was because the room was warm or because she was being stared at by Bei Mingxuan.
[Bei Mingxuan, your eyes are too focused, it's hard for me to concentrate.] Chang An sent a message to Bei Mingxuan, [Don't stare at me with such lustful eyes, it makes me shy.]
Hearing Chang'an's voice, Bei Mingxuan subconsciously frowned and echoed back to Chang'an, "What do you mean by lecherous? Gu Chang'an, look at me with lecherous eyes."
Bei Mingxuan's gaze fell on Chang'an.
Chang An took a deep breath and thought about the prince's eyes. [No, think about the prince's eyes. The way you looked at Lin Yanran just now was the way the prince looks at a beautiful woman.]
[…Are you jealous because I'm looking at Miss Lin?]
Gu Changan glared at Bei Mingxuan unhappily, "I, Gu Changan, swear to heaven, if I get jealous of Miss Lin, I'll choke to death even when drinking water."
Things don't always go as planned.
Chang'an picked up the tea in front of him and drank it in one gulp, but he actually choked.
A sharp cough.
Lin Yanran naturally stopped what she was doing.
"What's wrong?" Bei Mingxuan took off his fur coat, walked to Chang'an in two steps, and patted Chang'an on the back.
She spoke softly, her eyes revealing reproach, concern, and nervousness. "Drink slowly. No one's trying to snatch the drink from you. Look how you're choking. Are you making another oath bet?"
"!!!" Changan was speechless and said that he was really not jealous.
After a quick cough, Chang An looked up at Bei Ming Xuan in front of him and said, "Your Highness, you are worrying too much. After Chang An lost the bet with Your Highness, he never dared to gamble with others casually again. Chang An still has some self-knowledge."
Bei Mingxuan chuckled and reached out to pinch Chang'an's nose.
His voice was full of doting. "You always try to please me. I just said something about you making a bet with someone, and you immediately agreed with me, saying that you know yourself. Hmm? I know you're just teasing me."
“…”
Chang'an looked at Bei Mingxuan and opened his mouth, unable to utter a word. He was truly a fox, and a male fox who had become a spirit, a male fox who turned around and seduced women.
When Chang'an saw Lin Yanran and Bai Lu looking at her with amusement, her face instantly felt like it was on fire. At this moment, she wished she could crawl into the ground.
Bei Mingxuan naturally saw Changan's red cheeks, and he was in a good mood. "Changan, I'm tired. You and Miss Lin can do whatever you want."
After saying that, he looked at Lin Yanran again, "This king will not..."
"Your Highness, please feel free to do as you please." Lin Yanran actually preferred to talk to Chang'an. She didn't know why she was always nervous in front of Bei Mingxuan.
As he spoke, he stood up.
At this time, Bei Mingxuan raised his hand, indicating that she didn't need to bow. "Chang'an is rather willful and playful. If there are any inappropriate words, I would like to apologize on Chang'an's behalf. Miss Lin, please don't take it to heart."
"!!!" Chang'an looked at Bei Mingxuan unhappily, "Bei Mingxuan, when have I ever been willful and naughty? How could you do this? Besides, I haven't offended Miss Lin. Besides, Miss Lin isn't as petty as you, always opposing me."
"Yes, yes, yes." Bei Mingxuan smiled and said immediately, "Changan is right, I was wrong."
After spending some time together, Bei Mingxuan had already figured out Chang'an's temperament and character. When encountering things, she was indeed calm and thoughtful enough, but deep down she still had a childlike nature, and she had a childlike innocence and a pure heart.
Because of this, he said so deliberately, and sure enough, Chang'an "cooperated" without any defense.
At this moment, Chang'an suddenly noticed Bei Mingxuan's abnormality and immediately understood that Bei Mingxuan did it on purpose. He deliberately acted so caring and doting on himself in front of Lin Yanran.
Chang'an thought that he must have guessed that he was planning to match him up with Lin Yanran.
In this way, Changan felt like a failure.
