Chapter 358: She cried, he begged, she fainted, he paid the money...

【Alas--】

Jiang Yingcheng wrinkled her nose in disdain, stretched out two fingers, took out the small handkerchief specially prepared for her from her father's arms, and wiped her body carelessly: [Brother Li Feng is so unhygienic, Chengcheng is wearing this outfit for the first time today——]

Jiang Lifeng's face flushed with embarrassment, and his cheeks quickly turned unnaturally red.

How can he not care about hygiene? !

I was frightened by your inner voice!!

However——

As far as he could remember, there had indeed been a few times when, when he was sending Rui Han back to the Ding residence, he ran into Mr. Ding who was rushing out of the house, claiming that an old man from a wealthy family had taken a fancy to Rui Han and wanted to marry her as his "tenth concubine."

The following situation can be roughly summarized as follows:

She cried, he begged, she fainted, he paid...

Mr. Ding left with dissatisfaction, and the two miserable lovers hugged each other and cried.

It's not that he didn't want to pay a large sum of money at once and completely pull Rui Han out of that quagmire, but for some reason his father suddenly changed his mind and insisted that excessive enjoyment would make people forget their roots, and he was determined not to leave too much money on him.

So even though he usually dressed well, there was actually very little money in his pocket.

[Ahahahahahahaha——]

Another burst of "crazy" laughter successfully brought Jiang Lifeng's thoughts back from where they had drifted.

[Really?! ]

[So silly, Cheng Cheng’s brother Li Feng is really silly——]

I was clearly saying that I felt sorry for him, but why did my tone always feel a little...

Weird?

Jiang Lifeng froze for a long while with a suspicious expression.

Not sure, he'd have to wait and see.

[After Brother Li Feng left, he and Sister Rui Han split the money that Master Ding had cheated him of, 50-50. Both of them were laughing happily! ]

"Bang——"

The moment this voice came out, a roar suddenly rang out in Jiang Lifeng's mind.

Fake!

Regardless of whether this voice came from a young guy or not, its content is definitely fake!!

The few times he handed over all his money to Mr. Ding, he would go through a short period of being penniless afterwards. Whenever that happened, Rui Han would take out her own private money to provide him with food and drink, and would also buy him many small gifts.

Every time he thought of this timely help, he felt that he must have met the most beautiful woman in the world.

Even though she was born in a humble family, even though she was in deep trouble, she would still do her best to treat him well. How could Jiang Lifeng be so worthy of such a beautiful woman's wholehearted love? !

so--

Everything said in this strange voice must be false!

Fake--

[Sister Rui Han is also very cunning. Whenever Brother Li Feng has no money to eat, she takes out one tenth of the silver she gets and buys Brother Li Feng some cheap food, some low-quality tea, and some worthless trinkets given to her by others...]

【Brother Li Feng was so moved that he insisted that he would not marry anyone else in his life! 】

Following this inner voice, the little guy made a serious sound of "tsk tsk tsk".

[Touching the heavens and earth, this true love is truly touching! ! ]

Jiang Lifeng: "..."

Jiang Lifeng: “…………”

He lowered his eyes and met those red eyes from crying, and his heart was once again in turmoil.

The little guy is right.

Whenever the time came, Rui Han would bring him simple meals that he would never touch. Those small gifts that he treasured, now thinking back, were also jewelry suitable for girls to wear.

At that time, he was deeply immersed in the whirlpool of sweetness and unconsciously ignored the past. However, once someone lifted the window paper, the truth that was full of shrewd calculations underneath would no longer be able to hide.

Jiang Lifeng slightly turned his eyes away, wanting to escape from this embarrassing past for a short while.

He had completely believed what the young man said in his heart.

After all, if he was not born with supernatural powers, how could he know the memories so clearly from thousands of miles away? !

Jiang Lifeng wanted to escape, but someone didn't want him to do so.

Duke Wang sighed: "Alas, I am old now. I envy the impetus of these young people. They are willing to sacrifice their lives for love and spend all their money for love..."

After he finished speaking, he shook his head, as if he had thousands of emotions in his heart that could not be expressed simply in a few words.

Jiang Lifeng: "..."

You are such a bad old man!

Don't think he didn't see it. When the young guy was revealing his secrets in his mind just now, this old man had been standing beside him, either glaring or raising his brows, and he obviously looked like he was enjoying the show!

Hearing this and still saying this, he was far inferior to the ministers who were watching quietly beside him.

"Isn't it?" Minister of Rites Chu Jiaxu nodded solemnly with a calm face, "Feelings that are not bound by material things are the most solid, the most precious, and the most rare!"

The last sentence was deliberately dragged out, for fear that others would not be able to hear the sarcasm in it.

Jiang Lifeng: "..."

You didn't let me go either!

Jiang Lifeng took a deep breath, and endured it again and again before finally swallowing the foul air, without any sign of emotion on his face.

"Wen...Brother?"

Ding Ruihan's heart sank when she saw Jiang Lifeng's reaction. She always felt that something was about to escape her control. The long-lost panic surged into her heart, and she could no longer hold back, so she called out softly in front of Emperor Mingze.

"What's wrong with you?"

She had never seen such a deep expression before, and just one glance made her feel as if she had fallen into the abyss.

"Yeah." Jiang Lifeng couldn't resist the sweet memories of the past. He responded softly and lowered his head to look at her.

Tears were dripping from the corners of her eyes on her bright and beautiful face, which was no different from usual. Jiang Lifeng had seen her cry with sadness several times, and every time, he would feel a trace of naked heartache in his heart.

Jiang Lifeng's gaze gradually became distant, as if he was lost in the past again.

Ludi——

“Ahem—”

“Ahem…”

Several coughs were heard from all around. Jiang Lifeng looked up blankly and met several warning looks in succession.

Jiang Lifeng: "..."

I know, I know!

Jiang Lifeng lowered his head again and called softly, "Rui Han."

Ding Ruihan had never taken her eyes off him, and upon hearing that, she responded eagerly, "Yeah!"

This is the long-term meal ticket she is looking for in the future, she can't let him run away!

only--

Jiang Lifeng's next words, however, froze her in place.

"Do you know where the money I gave to Mr. Ding is hidden now?"

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Ding Ruihan suddenly widened her eyes.

"!!!"
