Chapter 5: After the freeloading, it’s time to get down to business
Her current situation is not much different from the top prostitute of Xueyue Pavilion who uses her beauty to attract others.
Jiang Lan smiled slightly, drinking tea and watching the dance, seeming quite comfortable and leisurely.
In the original book, the protagonist Lin Fan did not have this kind of treatment and could not feast his eyes like this.
However, he can only bully the heroine during this period.
If she transmigrated into the book too late, by the time her physique awakened and her cultivation improved by leaps and bounds, and she was valued by Empress Wanyang and became her successor, things would not be easy for her.
Jiang Lan was in a good mood, looking at Su Qinghan dancing with the sword with a look of sincere admiration.
Not to mention, he suddenly understood those kings who never held court early in the morning from then on.
If it were him, he would probably spend the night in the warm hibiscus tent, and no one would care whether he attended the court early or not.
Isn't the purpose of life to enjoy it?
Such a stunning beauty, with just a casual dance, can show thousands of different styles. The indifferent expression that she doesn't like him but has to suppress, dares not show, is quite a match.
However, his body is too weak at the moment and he still needs to rest for a while.
Su Qinghan had a cold and indifferent expression. While dancing with the sword, she ignored her five senses and ignored Jiang Lan's playful gaze that was sizing her up.
She didn't like this kind of look, because it was like a hunter looking at his prey, or like randomly picking up some goods on the street.
Deep down, Jiang Lan seemed to not regard her as a human being, but as some kind of commodity or plaything.
Today, she personally experienced the bad taste of this top second-generation rich.
Jiang Lan could vaguely guess what Su Qinghan was thinking at the moment, but he didn't care. He was not in a hurry to win over the heroine.
There will be plenty of opportunities in the future.
The dance ends and a faint fragrance wafts in the air.
Su Qinghan returned to the pavilion, put down his sword, bowed gracefully, and said with a hint of apology on his face, "Qinghan's dancing skills are not good. I hope Mr. Jiang will bear with me if I perform poorly."
Influenced by her parents since she was a child, she still knows how to judge the situation.
Jiang Lan still had a smile on his face and clapped his hands, saying, "Miss Qinghan, there is no need to be modest. It is worth my trip to Yuyi City to see Miss Su dance today."
Su Qinghan snorted in his heart.
However, seeing that Jiang Lan's attitude had improved, she felt somewhat relieved. At least it showed that things could turn around and be salvaged. The humiliation she had just experienced was not in vain.
Now that she had calmed down, she also realized something was wrong.
Maybe he came here just for me and my sister...
Today I was impulsive and careless.
Based on the rumors from the outside world, people arbitrarily judged Jiang Lan's temperament and habits and regarded him as an ordinary playboy.
Moreover, she should have been able to imagine that as the only son of the Prime Minister, Jiang Lan would definitely have something to save his life.
Would he be afraid of his own assassination?
Obviously, I could have figured it out if I had calmed down a little.
In fact, judging from the current situation, Jiang Lan was not at all surprised or shocked by her arrival. Instead, he looked as if he had expected it and had been waiting here for a long time.
What happened today might not be as simple as my sister being kidnapped.
So far, she has not conducted a thorough investigation and has not even had any evidence, but she arbitrarily believes that it was Jiang Lan who sent people to kidnap her sister.
After all, when she thought of the many rumors about Jiang Lan, the first thing she would worry about was her sister being humiliated or bullied.
Every moment of delay increases the possibility of my sister being humiliated.
So in a hurry, she would ignore everything and force her way in here.
Just as Su Qinghan's mind was in a mess, Jiang Lan's voice rang out.
"Someone, take this assassin away."
When Su Qinghan heard this, she was stunned at first, then her beautiful eyes widened slightly and looked at Jiang Lan, her face full of surprise and shock.
However, Jiang Lan had no intention of explaining more to her.
Now that we have enjoyed this dance for free, it is time to get down to business.
"Jiang... Young Master Jiang..."
Su Qinghan spoke, her pretty face turned pale. She had never expected that Jiang Lan would suddenly change his expression and ask someone to take her away.
"Miss Su just wanted to kill me. Do you think that you can just apologize and that's it?"
"Where in this world can such a good thing happen?" Jiang Lan just smiled faintly.
“…”
Su Qinghan clenched her jade hands and her face turned pale.
The guards' armors collided, and they quickly stepped forward, drew out their long swords, and put them on her neck.
Su Qinghan pursed her red lips, knowing that no matter what she said, it would be powerless, and she did not dare to resist.
If she really resisted, she would be convicted of the serious crime of assassinating Jiang Lan. She just wanted to scare him, but she didn't expect this result.
Perhaps now, she can only hope that the Su family will get the news and come to rescue her.
And Jiang Lan's words just now were obviously a joke on her, but she actually took them seriously.
After imprisoning Su Qinghan, Jiang Lan slowly walked back to the pavilion.
After knowing this plot, it was impossible for him not to make any preparations.
The heroine Su Qinghan is not a concern.
And the eunuch sword master Lin Fan is his most important enemy to deal with at the moment.
Now that Su Qinghan was in his hands, it would be much easier for him to set up a trap to deal with Lin Fan.
"To be on the safe side, we still have to mobilize people first. With this assurance, we don't have to worry about what kind of trouble Lin Fan can cause."
…
The news that the eldest daughter of the Su family in Yuyi City publicly assassinated the son of the Prime Minister's Mansion in Xueyue Pavilion quickly spread throughout the streets and alleys of Yuyi City, causing a huge stir and sensation.
The eldest daughter of the Su family is a legendary figure in Yuyi City. Not only is she extremely beautiful, but she is also extremely talented.
Many years ago, he broke through the third level of cultivation, the Linghai Realm, and was hailed as the number one genius in Yuyi City. Later, he entered Qingshan Academy and became one of the best.
The younger generation, both male and female, have sincere admiration and respect for her.
This time, it was said that the eldest daughter of the Su family was accepted as a disciple by an elder of the Dao Cang Sword Sect, and returned to Yuyi City to visit her parents and report the good news.
But who could have imagined that on that day, news broke that she had broken into Xueyue Pavilion and assassinated Jiang Lan, the son of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and was caught in public.
The sensation caused by this incident is naturally self-evident.
The son of the Prime Minister's Mansion is the undisputed most powerful person in Daxia today. Who would dare to provoke him?
Unless one is crazy, he would dare to assassinate him.
No one could believe that Su Qinghan, the eldest daughter of the Su family, would do such a thing. There must be some misunderstanding.
But who dares to say such things?
Many people tend to believe that it was actually the son of the Prime Minister's Mansion who fell in love with the eldest daughter of the Su family and sent people to rob her, but the eldest daughter of the Su family refused, which led to a dispute and a fight, and finally it was called an assassination.
This statement quickly gained the approval of many people.
But no matter what, Yuyi City did become the focus of much heated discussion because of this incident.
Among them, the other three families except the Su family were the happiest and gloated over the other's misfortune.
