After saying that, Jiang Wanying's gaze drifted uncontrollably towards Wang Nianqing again. Qiu Liang looked at Jiang Wanying's chin, which was slightly reflective in the sunlight, and reminded her with a somewhat amused look: "...Shadow Master, please put on your mask. I'll be watching for a while before the meeting ends."
Forget it, Qiu Liang said again: "Miss Jiang, do you need help?"
Jiang Wanying was stunned for a moment before she quickly came to her senses and looked at Qiu Liang blankly: "Ah, what?"
Qiu Liang touched his chin and said, "You, there is water here, I think you can wipe it."
Hearing this, Jiang Wanying touched her chin with her hand. It was really wet. She felt extremely embarrassed. "Sorry, I lost my composure!"
Jiang Wanying hadn't expected that getting Wang Nianqing to take off her mask wouldn't be such a difficult task. All she had to do was pick a sunny day, find a sunny spot, and let Wang Nianqing stay for a while without leaving, and the mask would naturally come off. However, to her surprise, the face beneath the mask was even more beautiful than she'd imagined. So beautiful, she didn't even know what words to use to describe it. Wang Nianqing and Wang Yanzhou must have felt like the first rays of sunlight reflecting off the icicles after a clear day following a snowstorm, cool yet dazzling.
While Jiang Wanying continued to act like a fangirl, wiping her mouth and becoming dazed, Qiu Liang looked at the abyss below him, his heart beating wildly. "By the way, Shadow Master, can I make a suggestion? Can we not meet in such a dangerous place next time? I have to change clothes, which is really troublesome."
Wang Nianqing said, "This place is not my choice." After that, she and Qiu Liang looked at Jiang Wanying together. Jiang Wanying was startled by the two gazes and suddenly came to her senses. She said, "...Well, let's go to the hot spring villa next time!"
The fact that these three people were able to get together now, taking the huge risk of hanging themselves on the edge of a cliff and chatting with each other, was not accidental. The reason was when Jiang Wanying secretly ran to the military camp a few days ago...
After Yan Shaoqing finished his work, thinking about not visiting Yue Sheng when the cherry blossoms were in bloom, and the beautiful weather, he asked for leave from Wang Yanzhou and prepared to return to the palace to pack up his things. He took his broken bamboo flute and went to stay in the cherry blossom forest for a day. Who knew that just as he arrived at the camp gate, he saw Tang Chen from a distance carrying a food box towards the barracks.
Yan Shaoqing saw that she came alone and hurried to greet her: "Achen, why are you here?"
I had met the person I was talking to before at a previous banquet, but I just couldn't remember their name. Of course, Jiang Wanying had stolen this outfit from Tang Chen's wardrobe. As long as people recognized her as Tang Chen, they could just laugh it off and not call her by her name.
"I'm not alone, Qiuliang is protecting me. I came to see Yanzhou, and I brought you some snacks freshly made in the kitchen."
Yan Shaoqing took the food box from Tang Chen and said, "As for the snacks, I'll take them for them. Yan Zhou is still in the meeting room, but he's the only one there. You can go find him directly. I won't take you there."
Tang Chen nodded slightly and said, "Well, I'll go over first."
This was Jiang Wanying's first time in the military camp, but she knew she had a way of asking questions when she didn't know the situation. After chatting with the guards for a while, Jiang Wanying figured out the approximate location of the meeting hall.
When Jiang Wanying found the place, she saw that the door to the meeting room was closed and there was no guard at the door. She was a little worried that she had come to the wrong place. After standing at the door and thinking for a moment, Jiang Wanying said that she would knock on the door first. If the voice inside was not Wang Yanzhou, she could just slip away.
After knocking on the door and hearing Wang Yanzhou's voice, Jiang Wanying couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
"Come in," Wang Yanzhou said. Seeing that the person knocking on the door was still standing outside and didn't come in, he put down the note in his hand and went to open the door.
As soon as the door opened and he saw the person outside, Wang Yanzhou's face wrinkled up instantly, as if he could kill a mosquito in a second: "...Miss Jiang, why are you dressed like this?"
Jiang Wanying looked at herself in shock, her eyes widening as she said, "Your observation of Tang Chen is truly meticulous. Even when I'm dressed like this, you can still tell I'm not her."
Wang Yanzhou stepped aside to signal her to enter the house, then said, "It's not too difficult to tell the two of you apart. You came to the military camp to see me dressed like this, so you shouldn't just be showing off that you were able to get this outfit right under Tang Chen's nose."
Seeing Wang Yanzhou cooperate with the door, Jiang Wanying said bluntly, "Since Your Highness has spoken so directly, I'll get straight to the point. Tell me, what exactly do you want me to do? I believe Jiang Wangjiu should have told you clearly that Bugui Peak will not get involved in your dispute unless it is absolutely necessary."
"Miss Jiang's question really leaves me a little confused," Wang Yanzhou said as he tidied up the things on the long table and gestured for Jiang Wanying to sit down.
After Jiang Wanying entered the room, she didn't look around, as if Wang Yanzhou was the only one in front of her. "Don't pretend. Although we don't know each other's situation, from my observations and everyone's comments during this period, if I want to know Tang Chen's secret, I can't go wrong looking for you."
It had to be said that Jiang Wanying's subtle gesture of not looking away had actually increased Wang Yanzhou's favorability towards her. Actually, Tang Chen's earlier suggestion was a good one; perhaps it could actually bring her and Wang Nianqing together. However, one wondered if Wang Nianqing would feel a little awkward when faced with such a face.
Of course, Wang Yanzhou's mind, besides his evaluation of Jiang Wanying, was also thinking about Tang Chen's actions. After listening to Jiang Wanying's words, Wang Yanzhou was sure that he was not overthinking: "...It seems that I made a mistake. I didn't expect that she didn't even say a word to you, the person involved."
The smile on Jiang Wanying's face gradually froze. She looked at Wang Yanzhou in disbelief and asked, "You mean you don't know what she wants to do? Don't be kidding, how could you not know about her affairs?"
Wang Yanzhou explained helplessly: "If I knew, I wouldn't let Nianqing get close to you to get information."
