Chapter 32 Shield
Xie Qingran was startled, but her expression remained unchanged, only coldly saying, "Young Master Lu, speak plainly."
"Xie Qingran!"
Lu Jinzhi was somewhat exasperated. He walked around to her side and stared at her through gritted teeth.
Xie Qingran held a book in her hand, lying on the chair and rocking gently. Her eyes were cold and indifferent. The wind blew through her hair, and the fragrance of osmanthus wafted over.
For a moment, Lu Jinzhi was stunned, and even forgot what he was going to say.
"You... vixen!"
Lu Jinzhi quickly came to her senses, snorted, and turned her face away, but she couldn't help but feel an inexplicable longing for the fragrance of osmanthus at the tip of her nose.
"You were the one who came to my door with something to say, so how did I become the vixen?"
Even Xie Qingran, with her good temper, was starting to lose her composure.
If in the previous life she shamelessly clung to him, then in this life she has repeatedly avoided him, is that still her fault?
Xie Qingran now understands that, whether in her past life or this one, the two of them are destined to be irreconcilable enemies.
"You! Xie Qingran, there was some misunderstanding about the banquet that day, but you must not spread rumors outside, and you must not ruin Yue'er's reputation."
"She's just a child at heart. As her older sister, you shouldn't hold it against her."
Lu Jinzhi coughed, his eyebrows furrowed tightly, as if warning Xie Qingran.
Xie Qingran's eyes flashed with sarcasm. She never expected that Lu Jinzhi would come to her at this moment only to say these things.
"Young Master Lu is truly devoted to his love. I just wonder if my sister would be moved if she knew of your feelings?"
"only……"
Xie Qingran raised an eyebrow and suddenly grinned mischievously.
"But what if your mistress finds out how deeply you love other women?"
This statement is extremely ironic and provocative.
Lu Jinzhi was already angry and guilty about this matter, and now after hearing these words, he gritted his teeth even more. He grabbed Xie Qingran by the collar and lifted her up.
The distance between the two suddenly closed, and the faint scent of mint emanating from Xie Qingran entered Lu Jinzhi's nostrils.
"you……"
Lu Jinzhi froze, his eyes widening involuntarily.
Today, Xie Qingran is so alluring.
"presumptuous!"
Snap!
Xie Qingran, though outwardly fierce, was inwardly weak and slapped Lu Jinzhi hard across the face.
With this, Xie Qingran used all her strength, and even though Lu Jinzhi was a grown man, he was still knocked off balance and almost fell to the ground.
"Lu Jinzhi, this is my Xie family home, not your Lu family home!"
"If you dare to offend me like this again, believe me, I'll kill you!"
Xie Qingran stepped forward, aggressive and coldly staring at him. All the hatred she had accumulated in her past and present lives erupted in that instant, as if she wanted to devour him alive.
"You! You! How dare you be so insolent?"
"I am Lu Jinzhi!"
Lu Jinzhi was forced to retreat step by step, his eyebrows furrowed tightly, as if he could not believe that the hysterical person in front of him was Xie Qingran, who usually wagged her tail whenever she saw him.
"So what if you're Lu Jinzhi?"
"I'll say it again, this is my home, get out of here right now!"
"Lu Jinzhi, let me tell you, my patience has its limits. If you continue to humiliate and provoke me like this, I will expose your dirty secrets and let the whole world know!"
Xie Qingran was not afraid at all and just kept attacking.
In both her past and present lives, Xie Qingran had accumulated far too much resentment, so now she didn't care about anything else and just wanted to vent.
Sure enough, watching Lu Jinzhi's face turn white inch by inch, I finally felt that the pent-up anger in my heart had been released a little bit.
"roll!"
Xie Qingran delivered a single word of truth, then turned and walked into the house, leaving Lu Jinzhi standing alone in place.
Lu Jinzhi was stunned by Xie Qingran's scolding. He never expected to be reprimanded like this, especially by Xie Qingran.
When did she start to become like this? Why was she so gentle and kind to him before, but now she's like a block of ice? He was completely at a loss.
"Young Master Lu, please take care and don't come back!"
Baozhu bowed to Lu Jinzhi and angrily chased Xie Qingran into the room.
"Young Miss, this Lu Jinzhi is really too much. Who does he think he is? Every time he sees you, he's so arrogant and domineering. He's infuriating!"
Baozhu looked unhappy when she entered the room.
Although outsiders preferred the second young lady, Baozhu knew that the eldest young lady was the better one.
Although the eldest young lady always seems cold, she is actually very kind to her servants. However, although the second young lady appears gentle on the surface, she secretly mistreats her servants in her own courtyard.
Seeing Baozhu's shared hatred for her, Xie Qingran couldn't help but smile.
In her previous life, Xie Qingran was all alone. This was the first time she had a companion, and the first time someone had truly spoken from her perspective.
Even though this was just a lowly servant girl, Xie Qingran still felt that warmth was slowly spreading through her once barren heart.
"Yes, it is indeed annoying."
Xie Qingran nodded in agreement, looking at Baozhu.
"You're so amazing, what clothes should I wear if I go to the Prime Minister's residence?"
this……
Baozhu originally thought Xie Qingran would continue to be angry, but she never expected that she would change her expression and change the topic so quickly.
She looked at Xie Qingran cautiously and whispered, "Miss, this young master Lu is bullying you like this, aren't you angry?"
"He doesn't deserve to make me angry. I'll deal with him in the future."
As soon as she finished speaking, Xie Hanyue walked in, her pearl hairpins gleaming brightly.
Xie Hanyue gently touched the pearl flower in her hair and looked at Xie Qingran with a smile: "Sister, this was given to me by Brother Jinzhi. Look, isn't it pretty?"
"It looks good," Xie Qingran said honestly.
Although Lu Jin is not a very good person, his status and position are real, and he is always very generous, especially towards Xie Hanyue, where he is willing to spend a fortune.
Xie Qingran smiled disdainfully. In her previous life, she envied Lu Jinzhi for having only Xie Hanyue in his heart. But now, seeing Xie Hanyue so smug in front of her, she just found it laughable.
She thought Lu Jinzhi cherished her, but in reality, he just wanted to marry her as a shield.
Xie Hanyue glanced at Xie Qingran, finding it rather strange.
