Original manuscript
Dang Xia didn't say anything, but just opened the fan and started fanning again.
"Are you buying another fan?" Su Liu took a closer look. This one had a jade handle and looked much more luxurious than the previous two. It should be worth a lot of money.
Dang Xia signaled Su Liu with his eyes to take a closer look.
"Who sent it? Lu Liang?" Su Liu asked clearly.
Dang Xia blinked and narrated with the openness of a subordinate, "Not only that, she also gave me a complete set of storybook manuscripts, written by that 'Muxiachen' himself."
As he spoke, Dang Xia took out the bound stack of manuscripts from his pocket, flattened it and handed it to Su Liu.
Su Liu took it and flipped through it, and soon found that this was the draft of the previous "Treason". The font inside was like dog crawling, and there were gaps between the words. Another person was holding a red pen and proofreading the typos and making annotations in small regular script with a hairpin flower.
"Whose calligraphy is this?" Su Liu asked, pointing at the small calligraphy with hairpin flowers.
"Lu Liang. She also likes to read this kind of storybook and has a good personal relationship with that person. The manuscript given to the bookseller was copied by Lu Liang herself, and she and that person split the profits 50-50." Dang Xia said.
"...at least 200,000 words." Su Liu had seen the printed version of the storybook. Although it was also in small regular script with hairpin flowers, it was more lively than the red words on the book in her hand. Perhaps Lu Liang really put in a lot of effort. Maybe the "heroine" of the original book wrote one, and she read it one. When she encountered typos and difficult-to-read passages, she discussed them with the "heroine" and then made the corrections.
But most of the copying was done by her subordinates. Su Liu didn't believe that Lu Liang was willing to do such a boring and tedious task. Although as a powerful person, Lu Liang was indeed very idle, she also had many bad habits.
Su Liu took the manuscript and looked at it again. Some of the paper had turned yellow and wrinkled. Su Liu used the paperweight on the table to press it down and smooth out the twisted edges and corners.
This "female protagonist" may not be a very good person, but she is quite smart. She knows how to form a community of interests with the powerful and wealthy. In this way, even if someone else "travels" through time later and wants to follow the same path as her, it is impossible for them to reach her current height.
"City Lord, not long after you left, Lu Liang came to visit you several times. She hopes you can see her again." Seeing Su Liu accept the manuscript, Dang Xia finally explained his purpose.
"Who does she want to see, me or His Royal Highness the Prince?" Su Liu glanced at Qi Fengling.
Qi Fengling smiled and signaled Su Liu with his eyes to stop making trouble. It was obvious that he, as a prince, had no real power, which was a well-known fact.
"... Lu Liang didn't mention His Highness, she only said she was looking for you," Dang Xia was embarrassed to say that His Highness the Prince had been deposed and reinstated, reinstated and deposed countless times by the king during these three thousand years. Therefore, the human nobles, who were as complicated and well-informed as the aristocratic families, would not ask for help from His Highness the Prince, and naturally they would not have much respect for Qi Fengling.
"Tell her to come to the villa to see me in two days," Su Liu sent Dang Xia away with a few words, then picked up the manuscript and took a look at it.
This thick volume felt a bit heavy in Su Liu's hand. After holding it for a while, his hands felt sore. He put it on the table and turned the pages one by one. Around the tenth page, Lu Liang's red handwriting circled a wretched little cannon fodder named "Feng Ling" in the book and annotated: Taboo. Then the dog-crawling handwriting changed the word "Feng" to "A".
The two characters "Fengling" have the same shape and pronunciation as Qi Fengling. The people are not clear about the prince's name, but the powerful cannot pretend not to know, as this is indeed a taboo.
Qi Fengling had not originally gone to look at the manuscript, but now he sat down to make tea for Su Liu. He only took a glance and was suddenly stunned.
"What's wrong?" Su Liu noticed Qi Fengling's strange reaction, so she waved her hand in front of Qi Fengling's eyes and asked with a smile, "The calligraphy is so beautiful, are you so engrossed in it?"
As he said this, he took a sip of tea from Qi Fengling's hand.
He had already asked someone to change the tea set, but before drinking, he still leaned in and sniffed it a few times, and only felt relieved after confirming that there was no problem.
He was indeed traumatized by Lin Miao.
"This handwriting looks very similar to my cousin's," Qi Fengling frowned slightly.
"Your cousin? I remember he was a Beta. The one from the Lu family was a time traveler with mind A and body O, and had nothing to do with Beta," Su Liu pushed the manuscript towards Qi Fengling, intending to make it easier for Qi Fengling to verify. Unexpectedly, Qi Fengling took the opportunity to pull Su Liu over and hugged her to sit on his lap, then rested his chin on Su Liu's shoulder and hugged her intimately while looking through the manuscript.
"...No, it's not appropriate," Su Liu's face flushed. He had just forced himself to suppress the heat of that special period, and his body was still a little uncomfortable.
Qi Fengling pretended not to know and said in a teasing voice, "There's no one here."
"What does it have to do with whether there's anyone here or not? I'm not shy!" Su Liu was furious and tried to push Qi Fengling away, but he hugged her tighter. "You're playing dumb again, aren't you?"
Qi Fengling lowered his eyes and continued to turn the pages with his other hand in silence, but the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.
"I...you," Su Liu got angry when she saw his smirk, "Don't sleep with me tonight, sleep on the floor."
"Can you give me one of your pillows? The bath towel you had before was too thin," Qi Fengling rekindled his old relationship with Su Liu and even licked the gland on the back of Su Liu's neck.
"...No," Su Liu was not ready yet, but his eyes were already unfocused and beads of sweat began to appear on his forehead again.
"Su Liu," Qi Fengling knew that Su Liu was only a little bit away from entering that period of temptation. Su Liu's pheromone only appeared for a very short moment just now. Dang Xia also smelled something from a distance, but Qi Fengling blocked it calmly, so no consequences were caused.
Su Liu frowned, his face full of resistance, but his body was soft, as if he wanted to resist but also to accept.
Qi Fengling picked up Su Liu and said teasingly, "Su Liu, you seem unwell. Are you tired?"
There were tears in Su Liu's eyes. At this moment, Qi Fengling's handsome face, reflected in Su Liu's blurred vision, seemed to add a bit of hazy beauty.
"...No, I will be angry." Su Liu had no strength in his body. He tried hard to grab Qi Fengling's collar to emphasize his intention. He, Su Liu, could not be tempted by beauty and do things with Qi Fengling that were not suitable for them at the moment.
"Su Liu, what did you say?" Qi Fengling was obviously a vampire with very sharp hearing, but at this moment he deliberately pretended that he could not hear anything.
Su Liu was quickly brought back to the East Building by Qi Fengling.
When Su Liu was put on the bed, he was almost losing consciousness.
He felt Qi Fengling kissing him, and the kiss gradually got out of control and slid down his neck.
Su Liu tried hard to wake up from the whirlpool of decadence, but he seemed unable to control his body. When Qi Fengling undressed him, he cried.
Qi Fengling seemed to sigh, then smiled helplessly. He placed his hands on Su Liu's ears and looked at Su Liu quietly for a long time before finally getting up and leaving.
When Su Liu woke up, the sun was already setting. He felt a little discomfort in his neck. He reached out and touched it, and found a shallow tooth mark on the gland. He looked down and saw that his clothes, which were soaked by the heat, had indeed been changed.
"You did it?" Su Liu glared at Qi Fengling, who was sitting on the stool at the end of the bed, flipping through the manuscript as if nothing had happened.
"Su Liu," Qi Fengling turned his head and smiled at Su Liu. The smile was gentle, yet had a strength that could not be ignored.
"Have you seen it all?" Su Liu, who was changed into pajamas, wrapped her body with a quilt, half sat up and kicked Qi Fengling on the back. After kicking him, she was still not satisfied and burst into tears.
"Do your feet hurt?" Qi Fengling put down the manuscript and hugged Su Liu, who was curled up in a ball.
"How could you do this?" Su Liu's tears fell even harder.
Not only was he temporarily marked by Qi Fengling, but he was also seen naked.
"You've known who I am for a long time, and I can't help myself even when you're serious. What's more, when you're like that..." Qi Fengling turned the tables, and his originally innocent eyes revealed the possessiveness that an Alpha should have. He blew into Su Liu's ear, "Su Liu, you're so beautiful, every part of you is beautiful, exactly as I imagined."
"...Shut up!" Su Liu couldn't stand such suggestive words. This had already exceeded his threshold. "You are so shameless."
"This is a normal thing between lovers. You are always so resistant to it. How can you feel the beauty? Did I hurt you just now?" Qi Fengling easily kissed the gland of Su Liu that he had bitten. He seemed to have figured out Su Liu's bottom line, and he always pushed the line to fight for his own benefits.
Sure enough, Su Liu did not struggle. Although she was angry, she was not furious. After crying for a while, she let Qi Fengling wipe her tears.
This childish look made Qi Fengling breathe a sigh of relief. It seemed that he had grasped the right time to make a decisive move and take a further step.
"I really regret it. I shouldn't have been so lustful," Su Liu looked at Qi Fengling's face and regretted it.
"If I'm a perfect match for you, then I definitely don't really love you," Qi Fengling confessed. "Su Liu, think carefully. Those Alphas who used to surround you and believed everything you said, didn't they ultimately not only not truly love you, but also had other intentions towards you?"
Su Liu lowered his head and said nothing. He knew that those people were only interested in his money, and maybe a little bit fascinated by his looks, but obviously they did not really love him as a person. That was why he hated them so much and felt that it was a waste of time to even say a word to them.
"Besides, to you, you won't like me at all just because I have a pretty face," Qi Fengling has been with Su Liu for almost half a year. While he loves Su Liu, he has also gradually regained his own value from Su Liu.
Love can make people feel inferior, suffer, and be bruised all over, but it can also make people learn to love themselves again.
Su Liu uncomfortably put his legs together. He suddenly felt a little pain somewhere. "Didn't you do anything excessive?"
Qi Fengling glanced down at Su Liu almost subconsciously, and then, with a blushing face, he said, "How could I dare? You said no, and you... cried."
"Really?" Su Liu intuitively felt that Qi Fengling had indeed not continued, otherwise according to common sense they would have to continue for at least three days, but... he still felt a little nervous.
Thinking of this, Su Liu lowered his head and smelled his clothes again. He always felt that there was a sweet vanilla scent everywhere, which even completely covered up his own smell.
"Meow~" Cuicui called him downstairs.
Su Liu quickly got up, changed her clothes and went downstairs.
