Li Zhanlan's nonchalant smile froze on his face, a crack appearing on his expression.
Fifth Brother... likes this kind of thing?
Eleven's pupils couldn't help but dilate.
You can know a person's face but not their heart.
Shen Yan sneered, and the displeasure in his heart finally dissipated considerably.
Li Zhanlan's expression quickly returned to normal, but his wariness of Meng Qingluan increased.
Fifth Brother still couldn't forget a woman who was already married to someone else.
This woman is no ordinary person.
Li Lan shrugged indifferently.
"Why be nervous? Xiangxiang and I are just ordinary friends."
Although Li Lan said that, her repeated use of the word "Xiangxiang" was full of provocation.
Chen Yan pressed the tip of his tongue against his palate, a bittersweet feeling welling up inside him.
He didn't know how much self-control he had to expend to resist the urge to go up and hit him.
Shen Yan let out a cold laugh, "Oh?"
Meng Qingluan poked her head out and explained in a low voice.
"They're not ordinary friends; we only met once."
Upon hearing this, Li Lan calmly crossed his arms and tilted his body to look at Meng Qingluan.
"Xiangxiang, you're really making me sad. Have you forgotten who helped you when you were in your most difficult time?"
Meng Qingluan: "..."
Can you give her a cheat code?
She was going to tie Li Lan to a tree and whip him viciously with her little leather whip.
Chen Yan turned his head. "What difficulties? Why have you never told me about them?"
Meng Qingluan glared at Li Lan, who seemed to enjoy watching the drama unfold, then lowered her head and mumbled something.
"It's nothing serious."
"Meng Qingluan." Chen Yan raised his voice slightly.
Seeing that he was really angry, Meng Qingluan was afraid that he would lose control of his emotions and start crying in the street.
I had no choice but to tell him the truth about redeeming the jade pendant.
"It's really nothing serious..."
After Meng Qingluan finished speaking, she looked up at him.
Shen Yan's gaze was complex, as he was backlit and tall.
From Meng Qingluan's perspective, all she could see was his taut jawline, as if he were suppressing something...
Meng Qingluan panicked, afraid that he would cry again, and explained.
"It's really nothing serious..."
"sorry."
Meng Qingluan felt a tightness around her waist as he pulled her into his embrace.
Shen Yan's brows were furrowed tightly, and the guilt and tenderness in his chest almost overwhelmed him.
He only just found out that she had suffered such injustice while he was away.
It's just a jade pendant.
Immediately afterwards, fear quickly took over his heart.
If she finds out, that jade pendant is nothing but a fake...
Shen Yan's greatest strength lies in his ability to see through people's hearts, and the time he spent with Meng Qingluan was neither short nor long.
However, he could see that Meng Qingluan, though gentle on the surface, had a stubborn and obsessive heart that was more stubborn than anyone else's.
If she hates him, then he's afraid he'll never have another chance in his life.
Chen Yan dared not think about it anymore.
Meng Qingluan was taken aback when he apologized to her, but quickly smiled and patted him on the shoulder.
"It's alright." Meng Qingluan glanced at Li Lan somewhat awkwardly, and seeing that he was still standing there watching, she whispered, "Let me go, there are people here."
"..."
Despite her reluctance, Chen Yan obediently let go.
Meng Qingluan cleared her throat and looked at Li Lan.
"How could I forget Young Master Li's great kindness? It's just that I'm here with my husband to see the list of successful candidates today..."
Li Lan quickly replied.
"Does Xiangxiang not want to take responsibility for me anymore?"
Shen Yan's eyes rippled slightly, her mind racing with a thousand thoughts, before she finally suppressed the urge to scold him.
He can't rush things.
If he makes a scene, it will only annoy Luanluan, and then he will win the heart of that scumbag Li Zhanlan.
Meng Qingluan subconsciously looked at Shen Yan, and sure enough, she saw that the pressure around him had dropped considerably.
It was as if a dark cloud had loomed over his head, making him look dejected.
"Young Master Li, please stop saying things that might lead you astray. If you don't know how to express yourself, I can give you a book on social etiquette."
Li Zhanlan raised an eyebrow.
This pretty boy is got some skills.
“Great!” Li Zhanlan smiled. “I love anything Xiangxiang gave me.”
Meng Qingluan could no longer tolerate it.
Do you want my poop?
"..."
Upon hearing Meng Qingluan's words, the three men present fell silent.
Almost all three of them looked grim at the same time.
Even with his thick skin and silver tongue, Li Zhanlan was speechless at Meng Qingluan's inappropriate words.
How could Meng Qingluan, a woman, utter such words?
Seeing that Li Zhanlan's face had turned green and he was finally unable to respond, Meng Qingluan was overjoyed.
You think you can mess with her?
Meng Qingluan was in a good mood, her smile became even brighter, and she spoke completely freely.
"They threw poop at me, so I used the poop to make steamed buns—"
"They threw poop at me, so I used the poop to make pizza—"
"Oh~ Oh~~"
"..."
Li Zhanlan was almost sick of her singing; it was all such nonsense.
His expression, unchanged for 110,000 years, completely cracked, and his hand unconsciously reached for the sword tucked at his waist.
He swore.
He would personally cut off Meng Qingluan's head as long as his master gave the order.
Li Zhanlan forced a smile.
"I'm not in a hurry. Xiangxiang, you and your husband should continue your stroll. See you another day."
Meng Qingluan just laughed it off.
"See you another day, Young Master Li."
Li Zhanlan grabbed Shiyi and ran.
As soon as Meng Qingluan turned her head, she saw Shen Yan's unpleasant expression. He noticed her looking back at him.
Shen Yan immediately forced a smile and stiffly praised him.
"You sang...very well!"
Meng Qingluan: "..."
Lying will get you struck by lightning, young man.
Meng Qingluan asked, "Is it really nice to listen to?"
Shen Yan nodded, not daring to speak.
Meng Qingluan teased him on purpose, laughing as she spoke.
"It sounds so good, I'll sing it to you in your ear every day."
Chen Yan: "..."
Thank you for the invitation.
Meng Qingluan didn't expose him, and sang it for him again.
Meng Qingluan only shut her mouth when Shen Yan was really about to vomit.
…
Shen Yan passed the academy examination and will now attend classes at the academy.
The preliminary test will be held in three days.
Meng Qingluan went to town to continue setting up her stall, this time specifically choosing a location not far from the academy.
Meng Qingluan sat in a chair, eating the oranges that the kind old lady selling oranges had given her.
It was incredibly pleasant.
They're delicious and sweet. I'll buy a few for Chen Yan later.
Meng Qingluan was stuffing an orange into her mouth when a shadow suddenly appeared in front of her.
Looking up, I saw Young Master Yu's face, which was adorned with a gentle smile.
"..."
They looked at each other.
The young master's smile softened, and his gaze fell on the orange in her hand.
Meng Qingluan followed his gaze.
He immediately peeled the orange and quickly stuffed most of it into his mouth.
Young Master Yu: "..."
Does he look like the kind of person who would steal her oranges?
Young Master Yu took a deep breath, composed his expression, and smiled gently and affectionately.
"Ms. Meng, it's been a long time."
Meng Qingluan chewed on an orange and mumbled indistinctly.
"What's wrong with you taking a bath while I do it?"
