1437 Pursuit, beauty like jade and sword like rainbow
Wang Jinling has always known that Jing Yang must have come to Dongling for a purpose, but he never thought that Jing Yang came for Feng Qingchen.
Wang Jinling was extremely grateful that he did not let anyone know, otherwise he would never know that his junior uncle actually came for Qingchen.
The way Jingyang looked at Feng Qingchen was like a tiger seeing its prey. He would never be wrong about this look. He had seen the Ninth Prince look at Feng Qingchen with this extremely aggressive look.
Jing Yang, an orphan, how could he have such aura? It's not that Wang Jinling looked down on Jing Yang, who was born an orphan, but some aura can only be cultivated by aristocratic families and royal families.
Junior Master Uncle Jingyang is indeed an interesting person, but I don’t know what he wants to get from Qingchen?
"Junior Master." No matter what he thought in his heart, the smile on Wang Jinling's face remained unchanged.
"Jinling, why are you here?" Feng Qingchen heard Wang Jinling's voice, put down the work in his hands, and turned around: "No, what did you call just now? Junior Master? Mr. Jingyang is your Junior Master?"
"What? Didn't I tell you?" Wang Jinling walked into the ward, greeted Jing Yang, and asked him in detail whether he was used to Dongling. He told him to just ask if he needed help.
After greeting Jing Yang, Wang Jinling walked to Feng Qingchen, standing between Feng Qingchen and Jing Yang, leaning forward slightly. To outsiders, this was an extremely intimate gesture.
"Qingchen, when will my uncle's illness be cured?"
There was a table behind Feng Qingchen, and even when she leaned back, they were still very close. Feng Qingchen frowned in confusion, and Wang Jinling blinked at her, asking her to cooperate.
Although Feng Qingchen didn't know what Wang Jinling was going to do, she cooperated by putting on a smile and closing the distance between herself and Wang Jinling, so that the two of them were almost leaning against each other.
"Your uncle's illness has been cured. I promise that it will not affect his schedule for tomorrow." The voice was sweet and you could tell that the two of them were very familiar with each other.
"That's great. Junior Master's lecture tomorrow cannot be delayed. The Imperial College is already full of students from all over the country. If tomorrow's lecture cannot be held as scheduled, those students will be disappointed." Wang Jinling seemed to be relieved, and then lowered his head to Feng Qingchen and said, "Qingchen, thank you so much. If it weren't for you, Junior Master would definitely not be able to recover within three days."
Wang Jinling emphasized the word "recovered". Feng Qingchen also hoped that Jing Yang would continue to live in Feng Mansion, so he followed Wang Jinling's instructions and said, "This is what I should do. After all, Mr. Jing Yang is your uncle. Jinling, are you here to pick up Mr. Jing Yang? I have prepared all the medicines he needs. I'll give them to you."
Feng Qingchen turned to get the medicine. Wang Jinling let go of Feng Qingchen and turned to talk to Jing Yang: "Junior Master, are you feeling well? Do you want to go back now, or should someone from the Imperial College pick you up this afternoon?"
Wang Jinling considerately gave Jing Yang the opportunity to choose, but the range of choices was...
Jing Yang smiled gently and said good-temperedly: "In the afternoon, I'm still a little tired."
"In that case, Jinling will not disturb Junior Master's recuperation." Wang Jinling stood up to say goodbye, but he did not forget to take Feng Qingchen with him before leaving: "Qingchen, does my Junior Master have anything else to do here? If there is nothing else, I will go and give you the medical fee for Junior Master's treatment."
"No need, Jinling. I will pay for Miss Feng's consultation." Jing Yang frowned slightly, secretly hating Wang Jinling for ruining his good fortune.
"Junior Master, Miss Feng's consultation fee is one thousand taels of gold. I know you are not short of money, but you certainly don't carry one thousand taels of gold with you. I will pay for you this time, and you can return it to me in the future." Born an orphan, even if he was born in the Jixia Academy, it would be impossible for him to take out one thousand taels of gold casually.
Jing Yang was not embarrassed at all, and said openly: "Thank you for troubling Jin Ling."
"This is what Jinling should do. Why make it a trouble? Don't worry, Junior Master. Just focus on recuperating. I will take care of the other things." This was Wang Jinling's reason not to give Jing Yang a reason to find Feng Qingchen.
The medical fee was paid for the treatment, and the silver and goods were settled. In the future, Jingyang could not use the money to repay the favor and get involved with Feng Qingchen.
"Okay." If Jing Yang really came from a poor family, he would probably think that Wang Jinling looked down on him. Wen Zi's inherent pride would make him speak sarcastically to Wang Jinling, but...
Jing Yang knew that he was of noble birth, so how could he take a mere 1,000 taels of gold seriously? Facing the sarcasm in Wang Jinling's words, Jing Yang pretended to be completely ignorant and acted tolerant.
Feng Qingchen looked at Wang Jinling with interest. She didn't know that Wang Jinling could be so mean.
"Is he really your junior uncle?" Feng Qingchen asked as soon as he left the ward area.
"You can't just recognize random uncles." Wang Jinling agreed.
"But you don't seem to respect him very much. Did he offend you?" She had never seen Wang Jinling targeting someone like this.
"No." I was only being sarcastic because he coveted you.
"Since there is no such thing, why are you being so sarcastic when talking to him?" Feng Qingchen didn't believe it. No matter how he looked at it, Wang Jinling didn't seem like the kind of person who would make enemies for no reason.
"It seems like I was too obvious." Okay, he admitted that he did it on purpose. He wanted to know if Feng Qingchen would stand on his side unconditionally if the matter did not involve the Ninth Prince.
"Tell me, what are you up to?" Feng Qingchen took Wang Jinling to a pavilion, making it clear that he was planning to have a long talk.
"Qingchen, if I tell you... to stay away from Mr. Jingyang, will you agree?" Since there were no outsiders around, Wang Jinling was unwilling to call Jingyang "Uncle Master".
One by one, everyone told her to stay away from Jingyang. Is Jingyang a plague?
However, whether it had anything to do with her or not, since the Ninth Prince and Jin Ling mentioned it, they must have their reasons. Feng Qingchen nodded without even asking for a reason, and was so straightforward that it scared Wang Jinling.
"You don't ask why?"
"There's no need. You're asking me to stay away from him for my own good." It doesn't matter whether Mr. Jingyang is good or bad. What matters is that no one around her likes Mr. Jingyang. Naturally, she wouldn't be so saintly as to ask the Ninth Prince and Wang Jinling to let go of Chen Jian or something.
"What if this matter has nothing to do with you?" Wang Jinling was really happy that Feng Qingchen trusted him unconditionally.
"It doesn't matter if it has nothing to do with him. He's just a Mr. Jingyang. I won't lose anything if I stay away from him. Even if I lose something, so what? I'm not familiar with him." Compared with Mr. Jingyang, she is naturally closer to the Ninth Uncle and Wang Jinling.
If I have to choose between the two, I will definitely give up Mr. Jingyang.
"Don't you think I'm being selfish?" He was rarely so willful.
"No. Because I am as selfish as you. Under the same circumstances, if I ask you to stay away from someone you just met, would you disagree?" For example, if she asked Wang Jinling to stay away from Qin Baoer, Wang Jinling would definitely agree.
"Of course I will agree." Wang Jinling said without thinking.
"That's it. Mr. Jingyang and I are not familiar with each other, and we won't be familiar with each other in the future." Even if Mr. Jingyang was a good person, she would not become friends with him.
There are so many good and talented people in the world, can she make friends with all of them? Obviously, it is impossible. She does not have so much energy to maintain these friendships. She is satisfied with one or two close friends.
