Chapter 69 Don't Let Go
It looks just like warm, fragrant and soft jade.
Song Ci's legs were numb, and she could barely stand. The two of them were pressed together in the main hall, almost perfectly pressed together. The scent of cedar and plum blossoms intertwined, enveloping them.
When I looked at it the wrong way, I couldn't tell whether it was pain or annoyance.
Pei Ji's ears were so red that they almost bled.
After Song Ci and the others stood firm, they took two steps back and saw the pink rouge color falling on his slender neck.
Thinking back, when I fell just now, it seemed that something did get on my mouth, leaving lip balm.
Seeing this scene, A Lin's pupils jumped, "Young Master..."
The voice had a slightly altered tone due to fear, reminding Song Ci of a kitten in the courtyard on a spring day, yearning for love. The voice was similarly sharp, like fingers scraping against white paper, causing pain in the ears.
His tone had lost some of his usual composure, and he said in a cold and hard tone, "Miss Song San, you are truly not afraid of death."
Song Ci's eyebrows jumped at the seriousness of this statement. She also knew that she had been a little reckless today. She didn't expect the Bourne family to be so careless and actually wanted to attack her directly.
inside the house.
Song Rouxi looked at the scene in disbelief, and her hands gripping the door frame turned white from the force.
"Sister, this...what happened?" Song Ying, who had been hiding behind her, felt uneasy when she saw her expression.
"Shut up!"
Song Rouxi's voice was sharp and low, almost uncontrollable.
Song Ying was so frightened that she jumped a few steps forward, looking at the usually gentle and kind Song Rouxi with a look of doubt and suspicion, her eyes full of fear.
Song Rouxi looked intently into the main hall, with an almost unsuppressible resentment brewing quietly in her eyes.
Why is Song Ci always so lucky? First it was Princess Le Yi, and then it was Pei Ji. What is the relationship between Pei Ji and Song Ci, and why should he help her?
Who is Pei Ji?
He is one of the most outstanding young people in Beijing.
Why does someone like him have to be involved with someone as lowly as Song Ci?
Song Rouxi felt jealous and resentful, the two emotions intertwined together, and she was almost vomiting blood in anger.
"Mr. Pei came uninvited to my Bourne Mansion. I don't know why."
Old Madam Lu at the top of the table swung the Buddhist beads in her hand, and the beads hit the small table beside her with a "bang" sound.
Her sharp eyes swept across Pei Ji's face, and then fell on the petite Song Ci beside him.
There was some confusion in his eyes.
No matter how hard she thought, she couldn't connect Pei Ji with the Third Miss Song in front of her.
The gap between their identities was so huge that she couldn't afford to make any groundless speculations.
"Madam Lu, I should be the one asking you this." Pei Ji raised his voice with a slightly sly smile, "What on earth are you, the Lu family, planning?"
Madam Lu raised her brows, feeling a little uneasy.
But then she thought, she did those things secretly, so no one should have discovered them. Even if Pei Ji was very capable and powerful, it was impossible for him to know such private things.
She calmed herself down and sneered, "Mr. Pei, no matter how much you gain face in front of His Majesty, you can't escape the blame for breaking into my Bourne Mansion without any reason. Now that you are in front of His Majesty, you can't escape the blame."
Pei Ji lifted his robe and sat down. His white robe looked like a dark cloud at night.
A Lin stood beside him consciously.
He raised his hand and hooked his fingers, "Bring it up. Let Madam Lu take a look."
"yes."
Song Ci turned her head and noticed that Pei Ji not only brought A Lin with him, but also several people in black standing quietly outside the main hall. They wore black armor that shone with a cold sheen on their chests.
Several of them had a strong aura. Judging from their expressions and the aura they exuded, Song Ci could almost immediately tell that these people were quite skilled and had seen blood before.
Otherwise, it would be impossible to develop such a cold and murderous aura.
Two of them were carrying a large box that looked heavy and no one knew what was inside.
She guessed that the things here might be related to the Bourne Mansion.
Pei Ji never fights a battle without a chance of winning.
The heavy box was set down in the middle, stirring up a small cloud of dust.
Madam Lu snorted coldly and gave the maid a look. "Open the box. I want to see what exactly is behind Master Pei's confidence today. If he doesn't give us at the Bourne Mansion an explanation, I will definitely report him. No matter how talented and brilliant Master Pei is, our Bourne Mansion is not without its own people."
Pei Ji smiled faintly, "Please."
The nanny opened the box, and Song Ci looked inside. Inside were sealed scrolls. A lot of dust had accumulated on them, and it was obvious that they had been stored for some time.
The nanny picked up several volumes one by one and placed them on Madam Lu's desk, then went back to get more.
Old Madam Lu's eyes moved slightly, and she picked up the books without caring that her hands were stained with dust, and read them one by one.
The look in his eyes gradually changed from indifference to indifference, his pupils began to flicker, and finally his eyes were almost wide open.
Her hand holding the scroll couldn't stop shaking, and she had completely lost the orderliness she had just had.
She demanded hoarsely, "How did you know?"
Pei Ji raised his hand, then casually twirled his jade ring with his head down, and asked, "Is Madam Lu scared?"
“Old lady!!!”
The nanny hurried over to support the shaky Madam Lu, and kept her hands on her chest to help her breathe.
"I...I'm fine...Go and inform the young masters."
Wen Qing was so frightened that her beautiful face lost all color. Her grandmother, who had always remained calm, was terrified. She stared at the scrolls intently. It seemed that these were not scrolls at all, but death warrants for the Bourne Mansion!
"It's too late." Pei Ji said, "Since I'm here today, how could I not be prepared? I'm afraid that several young masters of the Bourne Mansion have been detained by now. Old Madam, please don't bother with it."
"You...you..." Madam Lu's fingers trembled. "You're not afraid of retribution! You're a heir of the Pei family, and your hands are stained with blood. Do you know what the world will say about you?"
Pei Ji chuckled, "What did you say about me? You said I was the sword by His Majesty's side, the dog he kept by his side?"
Song Ci's eyes flashed behind him. Pei Ji's reputation is more than just that.
She vaguely remembered that after the Song family had established a firm foothold in the imperial court, Pei Ji's reputation in the capital was everywhere. Some even said that wherever Pei Ji appeared, countless people would die and families would be destroyed.
It can also stop children from crying.
I didn't expect that he knew everything and could act so nonchalant.
Pei Ji, what kind of person is he?
"Are you really not willing to let my Bourne Mansion go? Are you determined to kill us? Pei Ji, are you really going to do this?" Old Madam Lu gritted her teeth, her eyes bloodshot.
