Chapter 8 Misunderstanding
"arrive."
"Miss Jiang, we're home."
Jiang Ran came back to his senses after a while, said "Oh oh" a few times in agreement, and was about to run home.
Ever since Lu Weiqing carried her down from the wall, Jiang Ran's face had turned red all the way, and she walked with her head down like a dove.
In just a few days, she had embarrassed herself so much in front of this man.
If she hadn't needed him to hold the lantern to light the way, she would have run away long ago.
"careful."
Okay, lost again.
How stupid does one have to be to trip over the steps at the doorstep of their own home?
Yes, she can.
Before she fell face first to the ground, Lu Weiqing picked her up in time.
Jiang Ran was too embarrassed to face anyone now.
Taoli happened to hear the noise and opened the door with a bang.
Seeing the young lady being held in the arms of Prime Minister Lu, she gasped and her mouth opened wide enough to fit two eggs.
"Bang" the door was closed again by that smart guy.
"Um, that..." Jiang Ran took three deep breaths before he resisted the urge to curse, thinking about letting him let it go first.
Before she could finish, Lu Weiqing hugged her and climbed over the wall of her house.
I can’t get through the wall tonight!
"Can I take you here?" Lu Weiqing stopped beside her yard.
"Okay."
The feeling of being grounded finally returned, and Jiang Ran ran away.
"etc."
She felt something being stuffed into her hand.
"You hold the lantern, and watch your step."
Jiang Ran nodded, holding the lantern to illuminate the road beneath his feet, and walked forward carefully but quickly.
Before closing the door, she saw a banished immortal-like man staring at her under the watery moonlight.
Jiang Ran leaned against the gate to calm himself down, and sighed again, Lu Weiqing's face was simply a show of skill by Nuwa, and he would blush if he looked at it for too long.
She raised her eyes and happened to meet the eyes of the sneaky Taoli.
"ah!"
They both screamed at the same time.
"I'm going to die! I'm going to die! If you scare people, they'll scare them to death."
Jiang Ran raised his hand and hit her a few times. Tao Li not only did not dodge, but stared at her with sparkling eyes.
"What?" Jiang Ran touched his face guiltily. "Did something get on your face?"
Taoli nodded seriously.
“Yes.”
"It smells like the new son-in-law!"
Jiang Ran was so scared that he broke out in a sweat and quickly covered her mouth.
She quietly opened the door a crack and looked out. Fortunately, Lu Weiqing had left and probably didn't hear it.
Jiang Ran closed the door and said sternly, "Taoli, don't say things like that again. It will be troublesome if someone hears it."
"Lord Lu is an elder, and he sent me back with good intentions. I can't cause him unnecessary trouble, right?"
Taoli rarely saw the young lady so serious, and was frightened. She covered her mouth and nodded repeatedly.
The young lady's engagement with Master Lu was gossiped about by many people. Master Lu was even more unattainable.
She secretly felt sorry for it, but they looked so well-matched just now.
Jiang Ran, who has always been a good sleeper, tonight tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep. He only fell into a drowsy sleep at three o'clock in the morning.
I slept until noon.
Jiang Ran turned over and looked at the sun, wanting to go back to sleep.
Suddenly remembering that she had an appointment with Lu Weiqing to have lunch at Jiangyun Tower at noon, she jumped up.
"Taoli—why didn't you wake me up?"
Taoli felt aggrieved, but she didn't know it was noon and the young lady was in a bad mood, so she didn't dare to shout.
Jiang Ran rummaged through the wardrobe and found a peach-colored chest-length skirt.
Tao Li covered her mouth and laughed secretly. She combed her hair into a ladylike bun and inserted a hairpin. "Miss, you are so beautiful. The light color suits you very well."
Jiang Ran thought the skirt was awkward and inconvenient, so she only wore it a few times. She looked in the mirror and felt a little awkward, but then she thought it would be more respectful to wear something more formal.
"Forget it, let's go quickly, it's too late." Jiang Ran lifted her skirt and strode out.
-------------------------------------
It was dinner time and the Jiangyun Tower was full of guests.
Jiang Ran ran inside in a hurry, but before she had taken a few steps, she heard someone calling her from upstairs.
"Jiang Ran——"
unlucky.
She looked up and saw Lu Yu, Lin Buqiu, Shen Yingshi and their group, and thought to herself that their ghosts were still there.
Jiang Ran didn't bother to pay attention and stopped a waiter to ask, "Is Master Lu here?"
The waiter wiped the table quickly and pointed upwards, "Please check if there's anything on the first floor. Mr. Lu has reserved the second floor for today."
Fortunately, fortunately, she didn't come. Fortunately, she wasn't late, and Jiang Ran felt relieved.
I left in such a hurry last night that I forgot to book a private room. I hope Lu Weiqing doesn't mind.
Jiang Ran found a table by the window, sat down and started waiting.
Seeing her sitting down on the first floor, Shen Yingshi couldn't help but ask: "Brother Yu, didn't Jiang Ran invite you here? Why doesn't she come up?"
"Sister Jiang Ran, did you see that I was unhappy? If I had known, I shouldn't have insisted on coming along." Lin Buqiu pouted, and tears welled up in his eyes again.
"Jiang Ran is too petty. He always targets Sister Bu Qiu."
The people around nodded, all agreeing that Jiang Ran was wrong.
"Why does she look like she's waiting for someone?" someone objected.
"Brother Yu is here, who else can she wait for?"
"Let her be, let's eat first." Lu Yu's face was gloomy.
Last time at the door of Jixian Bookstore, Jiang Ran lost face in front of everyone and it was very unpleasant.
After receiving Jiang Ran's invitation yesterday, he notified everyone's family overnight and gathered them together, just to have a meal together and ease the relationship.
As a result, Jiang Ran not only did not appreciate it, but also threw a tantrum in front of everyone.
Lu Yu was in a bad mood and ordered all the dishes from Jiangyun Tower, filling up several tables like water.
"Brother Yu, how about I go and ask Sister Jiang Ran for help?"
"Let's not talk about her. Let's eat."
Lu Yu frowned and stopped Lin Buqiu, and everyone started to clink glasses.
Although it seems lively on the surface, the atmosphere is still weird.
Shen Yingshi started to make small talk: "Brother Yu, the box of Southern Xinjiang tranquilizing incense you gave me last time is very effective for my mother. Where did you buy it?"
Lu Yu raised his hand and drank the whole glass of wine without answering.
He was really bringing up something that was irrelevant to the topic. Lin Buqiu quickly winked at him.
Jiang Ran knew that Lu Yu sometimes had trouble sleeping, so he specially asked someone to make the incense. He found the smell strange when he received it, so he gave it to Shen Yingshi.
Lu Yu was in a bad mood and had an awkward meal.
His eyes drifted downstairs from time to time. It had been an hour, and Jiang Ran still hadn't come up.
After eating and drinking, everyone went downstairs and saw Jiang Ran still sitting alone by the window.
It can be seen that she dressed up carefully today. She wore the "troublesome" skirt that she used to hate the most, and also wore the hairpin he gave her.
Lu Yu's heart softened for a moment, and he couldn't help but walk to her table and greet her.
Jiang Ran was puzzled and asked him, "What are you doing?"
She was already waiting hungry and in a bad mood, and Lu Yu came to bring bad luck, so her tone was naturally a bit aggressive.
"Jiang Ran, why are you so angry again?"
Lu Yu felt that she was playing hard to get, and he was a little angry.
He had been waiting for more than an hour and took the initiative to find Jiang Ran, but she asked him what he wanted to do.
Although Jiang Ran didn't know what was going on, she wasn't one to suffer any loss, so she immediately shouted back even louder: "Lu Yu, are you sick?"
Lin Buqiu stepped forward and grabbed Lu Yu, saying timidly, "Sister Jiang Ran, please stop arguing with Brother Yu."
"We didn't know you only wanted to invite Brother Yu to come today. Sorry to bother you."
Shen Yingshi and others stood behind with a look of frustration on their faces, feeling sorry for Lin Buqiu.
If it weren't for Yu Ge's sake, they wouldn't be willing to play with Jiang Ran because of her bad temper.
Lin Buqiu is gentle and sensible. Whoever marries her in the future will be blessed.
If Jiang Ran continued to vent his anger on her, they would not agree.
