Chapter 54: Trap (2)



Although you and I know your relationship, Su Rongqing doesn't know it. If you speak up, he might be scared. So tonight, let's talk business and conquer him with your personal charm."

"So what do I do?"

"When you speak, you must only speak to the point, but you must also learn how to use your eyes."

Shangguan Ya said, sitting up straight, and gestured: "Look at me, you have to look at me inadvertently, for example, when you turn your head, when you raise your head, you have to look over slowly, just like that."

Shangguan Ya demonstrated to her. She lowered her head first, then raised it again. Her eyes seemed to be able to speak, filled with autumn water, and gently swept towards Li Rong.

Li Rong was stunned for a moment, then clapped her hands and said, "You can do it! Come, see if I am doing it right."

Li Rong said this and started to learn.

The two girls began to practice their eye contact in the carriage.

When Li Rong and Shangguan Ya went to Mingyue Tower, Pei Wenxuan had almost finished reviewing the last document.

He was not a high-ranking official and did not have much work to do. He worked diligently on weekdays. Now he wanted to find something else to do, but he couldn't find any.

He sat in the office for a while, and when he thought Li Rong was about to leave, he stood up and walked out.

Tong Ye was guarding the door. When he saw him coming out, he asked, "Sir, why are you out so early today? Are you going home?"

"Um."

Pei Wenxuan responded in a low voice, and Tong Ye sighed: "Young Master has not been back to Huajing for a few years, and those young masters who used to accompany you have all dispersed. There is no one to talk to on weekdays. If you had known this, you might as well have stayed in Luzhou."

Pei Wenxuan got on the carriage without saying a word.

In fact, he no longer remembers many of his childhood friends as it has been so many years. His later friends are people like Li Chuan and Qin Lin.

Now Li Chuan is still the crown prince, Qin Lin and others are far away in the border, and except for Li Rong, there is no one else around him.

Pei Wenxuan felt a little tired. He raised his hands to cover his head and whispered, "Let's go back."

The carriage moved slowly from the bustling alley to the dark. Before leaving the alley, a hurried voice came from the front: "Young Master! Eldest Young Master!"

The carriage stopped abruptly, Pei Wenxuan looked up coldly, and then Tong Ye rolled up the curtain and came in, saying urgently: "Sir, the lady is seriously ill, and she asked you to hurry back to the Pei family now."

Pei Wenxuan said nothing. He opened the curtain and looked at the messenger. It was indeed his mother's personal attendant, who was crying and said, "My dear, please go home as soon as possible."

"Mother is seriously ill, why didn't you tell me before?"

Pei Wenxuan looked at her coldly, and she sobbed, "It was nothing at first. Madam told me not to alarm you. You haven't visited her for a long time since you got married. Madam thought you were busy. Half an hour ago, Madam suddenly fainted. We didn't invite a doctor. There were so many people in the mansion making things difficult for us. I had no choice..."

"Sir, don't ask any more questions," Tong Ye said anxiously, "Just go back as soon as possible."

Pei Wenxuan said nothing. He held the car curtain tightly. After a long time, he suddenly laughed.

"OK."

He turned around and said to Tong Ye, "Go to Mingyue Tower, and when the princess comes out after finishing her work, ask her to pick me up at Pei Mansion."

As he spoke, he leaned close to Tong Ye's ear and whispered, "Bring more people with you."

Tong Ye was stunned for a moment, and Pei Wenxuan said slowly: "Go, wait at the door, don't disturb the princess."

Pei Wenxuan finished speaking, returned to the carriage, and said to the outsiders: "Let's go to Pei Mansion."

The carriage slowly drove away. Tong Ye stood there, stunned for a long time before he realized what Pei Wenxuan had instructed him to do.

His son was always smart, and he must have sensed something was wrong before giving such an order. Tong Ye was panicked and anxious, and hurried to Mingyue Tower.

But at the moment before Tong Ye set off, a secret guard had already left and passed the message along.

Li Rong was still arguing with Shangguan Ya in the carriage when the secret guards rushed over and stopped the carriage. Li Rong lifted the curtain and asked coldly, "What's the matter?"

"The Pei family called the prince consort over."

"What's the reason?"

Li Rong frowned, and the secret guard immediately said, "Ms. Wen is seriously ill."

Li Rong didn't say anything. After a moment, she turned to Shangguan Ya and said, "Get out of the car."

"ah?"

Shangguan Yaman was bewildered. Li Rong said directly, "Something happened to Pei Wenxuan. Go to Mingyue Tower and explain it to me and Su Rongqing."

"No," Shangguan Ya said anxiously, "How could anything bad happen to him in the Pei family? We are already at the gate of Mingyue Tower, you should see him before you leave."

"Gone."

Li Rong said directly: "I am worried, hurry up."

Li Rong pushed her out and told the secret guards, "Go find the princess's mansion to get someone, go directly to Pei's mansion."

The secret guard responded, and Li Rong turned the carriage around and headed towards Pei's mansion.

She sat in the carriage and closed her eyes.

She thought about Pei Wenxuan's thoughts and what might happen in Pei's house. After a while, she couldn't help but laugh out of anger.

She had thought about what she would do first when she met Pei Wenxuan.

Just give him a big slap in the face.
