Chapter 27 The moonlight is beautiful tonight
Although Zhao Dieyi sympathized with Su Qinghan's situation, she did not dare to provoke Jiang Lan easily at the moment. She could only do nothing to help and left with her grandfather.
After the banquet, Su Qinghan finally made it through and breathed a sigh of relief.
All she wanted now was to go home, take a good shower, and wash her whole body.
If there was a way, she would have wanted to chop off Jiang Lan's hand. From childhood to adulthood, she had never suffered such humiliation and disrespect as today.
However, when she was about to leave the villa with Su Changkong and others.
Jiang Lan's voice, which seemed to contain a smile, suddenly sounded behind him, causing Su Qinghan to stop in his tracks.
"The moonlight is beautiful tonight. Miss Qinghan, are you free to enjoy it with me?"
Su Qinghan's head buzzed, and a hint of paleness appeared on her flawless and beautiful face.
She thought that if she surrendered and obeyed at the banquet, Jiang Lan would let her go.
But after hearing this, she suddenly realized that she was too ridiculous and naive...
There was no conflict between him having to deal with the conspiracy against Lin Fan and threatening and forcing himself.
Su Qinghan's face became even paler, her hands were clenched tightly, and her whole body was trembling slightly.
There was even a look of determination to die in those cold eyes.
She would rather die than have her innocence tarnished. What happened today was the biggest concession she could make...
Although Su Qingyao's brain was not very smart, she could vaguely guess what Jiang Lan meant by this. A man and a woman alone admiring the moonlight in the middle of the night? Her face turned pale and she looked at her sister with worry and fear in her eyes. Her little hand tightly grasped her skirt sleeve, fearing that she would agree.
"Sister..." She kept shaking her head like a rattle.
"Qinghan..."
Su Changkong's face turned extremely ugly, his fists were clenched tightly, and veins were exposed.
He saw everything Jiang Lan did to Su Qinghan at the banquet.
As a father, he was naturally furious, but the Su family was weak and could not even be called an ant in front of a behemoth like the Prime Minister's Mansion.
At first, he did have some thoughts of climbing up the social ladder, but when he saw Jiang Lan's casual attitude as if she was playing with a toy, he suddenly realized that climbing up the social ladder was just his wishful thinking.
In other people's eyes, even if a sparrow climbs up a high branch, it will always be a sparrow, a plaything, and it will never become a phoenix...
No matter how cowardly or weak Su Changkong was, he would never push his daughter into the fire pit.
At that moment, he looked at Su Qinghan and said firmly,
"Qinghan, you don't have to force yourself. Although the Su family is weak, it is not something that can be manipulated by others..."
"Father, please take Qingyao home first. I will be here soon."
However, before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Su Qinghan.
She shook her head gently, and her cold starry eyes became calm.
Su Changkong was stunned and didn't understand what Su Qinghan meant.
However, Su Qinghan did not intend to explain more. She pulled open her sister's tightly clenched sleeves, then turned and walked towards the pavilion in the villa.
The drinks had already been prepared there.
Jiang Lan stood by the pavilion railing, her white clothes fluttering, tall and slender, wiping her hands with clean silk.
The moonlight sprinkled down like fine white snow on the ground. Mist was rising by the edge of the pool, creating a hazy atmosphere, which made him look somewhat otherworldly.
"The moonlight tonight is indeed beautiful."
Su Qinghan's cold voice sounded behind him, appearing exceptionally calm, without the expected anger, resentment, humiliation and other emotions.
Jiang Lan seemed a little surprised, turned around and smiled, "I thought you wouldn't come."
"How dare I not come when Master Jiang invites me?" Su Qinghan replied coldly.
Her eyes fell on the silk in Jiang Lan's hand.
This guy was wiping his hands again. If he disliked touching me, why did he touch me again? Jiang Lan smiled nonchalantly and still looked up at the moon.
Su Qinghan looked at him, a little surprised, and then raised his face and looked at the bright moon hanging high in the deep sky.
The night wind blew, lifting the strands of black hair on her forehead, and she seemed to be gradually becoming a little absent-minded.
"Miss Su, please sit down."
It seemed like a long while had passed, or just a moment, when Jiang Lan's voice interrupted Su Qinghan's thoughts.
She was surprised that Jiang Lan had changed his previous frivolous address, and Miss Su seemed a little more serious...
Su Qinghan sat down obediently and watched Jiang Lan personally fill the wine glass in front of her.
If it were someone else, they would have felt flattered a long time ago, but she was unusually calm at the moment, guessing Jiang Lan's intention.
I even began to wonder if he had poisoned the wine as he said during the day.
"Don't worry, it's not poisonous." Jiang Lan sighed slightly, as if he knew what she was thinking and felt a little headache.
If you want to win the heart of this heroine, you can't just rely on force.
Jiang Lan had no doubt that with her personality, she would sever her heart veins and commit suicide before she could make any thoughts.
At this point, do you still expect Su Qinghan to care about her family members? She is the heroine, but she is not a saint.
"I don't believe it."
Su Qinghan thought he had already experienced Jiang Lan's shamelessness, so now he didn't believe what he said at all.
She still has the ability to make her own decisions now. Once she is poisoned and unconscious, won't she have to let Jiang Lan do whatever he wants? He said this himself during the day.
"Forget it, it's better not to drink. It's really sad that my good intentions are misunderstood." Jiang Lan shook his head slightly and started drinking by himself.
Su Qinghan snorted in his heart and refused to believe his nonsense.
A man's mouth is a lie.
Especially a man like Jiang Lan who is good-looking, has a good appearance and is born with advantages.
In the pavilion, Su Qinghan sat quietly, like a flower reflected in the water, pure and elegant.
Jiang Lan no longer paid any attention to her and just kept drinking cup after cup. Later on, even Su Qinghan started to have doubts. Did he really ask her to come and watch the moon with him?
He didn't look like this at the banquet, in front of so many people.
But now they are alone with each other, and the night is dark, and he has become a sage gentleman like Liuxia Hui.
"Miss Su, are you wondering why I shouldn't touch you at this time?"
While Su Qinghan was puzzled, Jiang Lan's leisurely and smiling voice suddenly rang out.
"Yeah." Although she was a little embarrassed by this statement, she still nodded slightly.
"Of course, it is to make Miss Su anxious and worried, so that she will become curious about me, and then be captured by me step by step..."
Jiang Lan smiled slightly, his tone extremely sincere.
Su Qinghan was stunned for a moment, then reacted, and couldn't help but part her red lips and utter two words, "Shameless."
She naturally didn't believe what Jiang Lan said. It was obvious that he was teasing her. Did he really regard her as an ordinary woman without a brain? (End of this chapter)
