After a while, Butler Du brought the fine wine as Jian Xiu's request.
In fact, these wines were bought by Butler Du on the spur of the moment today.
There is no wine in the house, and the master doesn't drink.
No, this is the kind of wine. Meng Ling took a sip and frowned, "This wine isn't very good."
"Just drink it." Chi Zixuan said expressionlessly.
Meng Ling was a little surprised. This was the second time Chi Zixuan spoke to him.
The tone was also not very good.
Chi Zixuan immediately noticed Meng Ling's expression. If he didn't have something to talk to him about, Chi Zixuan would not bother to talk nonsense with him.
He probably didn't know that it was an honor for him to sit at this table and have a meal with them.
Jian Xiu didn't say anything, but she glanced at Meng Ling suddenly.
Just one glance and Meng Ling's waist immediately straightened.
As expected of Anning County, that look even frightened him.
His expression was completely different from when he discussed the surgery with her before.
No, or rather, this is the real Anning County.
The rumors about her were that she was a heroine who would take revenge for any slight she might inflict.
If someone respects her an inch, she will give him a yard in return.
Similarly, if someone bullies her even a little, she will not tolerate it and will even return it tenfold.
Although he had never offended her, he was not the kind of person who lacked judgment. The look in Jian Xiu's eyes just now was obviously not a good one.
He no longer dared to despise the wine and poured it into his own bowl without saying a word.
Then he took out his own gourd and poured the remaining liquid into the gourd.
The movements were extremely natural, and it was obvious that he did this kind of thing often.
Everyone: “…”
If they didn't know that the person in front of them was Meng Ling, they would never believe that he would do such a thing.
He was eating and taking things, yet he acted so self-assured.
As if he was supposed to do this.
"I'm sure Elder Meng has also heard about what happened to Mu Lingming some time ago."
During the meal, Jian Xiu couldn't help but ask Meng Ling.
It's no wonder she's so impatient. Looking at Meng Ling's leisurely manner, if she doesn't get to the point, it might take until the second half of the night.
A drunkard is a drunkard, he eats slower than others.
He took a sip of wine and tasted the food. Looking at him, you can’t tell you how much he enjoyed it.
Looking at the way he was smacking his lips, it seemed that he was very satisfied with the food on the table.
Go on, Jian Xiu can't wait.
"I've heard of it. What does this have to do with me?" Meng Ling said without thinking.
That's true, but it has nothing to do with him as a homeless person.
He never interfered in the affairs of the court.
"Gu Gui, I'm sure Elder Meng is familiar with this name, right?"
Sure enough, upon hearing the name Gu Gui, Meng Ling paused while picking up the food, "What does this have to do with him?"
Although he said so, he had already put down the chopsticks in his hand.
His brows were furrowed, and he clearly looked unhappy.
Seeing his reaction, Jian Xiu was quite satisfied.
After all, he didn't reject what he said outright, indicating that Gu Gui had nothing to do with him.
In fact, there is nothing wrong with him saying that.
Everyone in the Dashun Dynasty knew that he and Gu Gui had severed their master-disciple relationship.
Then there is no relationship between the two of them.
"Did he do something?" Meng Ling asked again.
This time, the expression on his face was obviously much more serious.
Even Chi Zixuan looked at him differently.
It seems that this person is not as irresponsible as he appears to be.
