Chapter 116 [VIP] Lifesaver (3)
Nan Yan pursed her lips, as if she didn't notice the coldness in his tone. She felt a little pain on her lips, and her expression changed to a little accusatory. Finally, she couldn't help but glared at him resentfully, "It's not that I can't do it, it's just... Jin Lili's skills in using your relatives are really poor, and you broke their lips."
Jin Lili's eyes fell on those rosy lips, and then moved away without leaving a trace, "Can you blame me for this? If you hadn't pushed yourself up, would you have accidentally bumped into it?"
Nan Yan snorted twice and looked up at him again.
She thought to herself, this man is quite self-controlled. In just a short while, his previous emotions have been stabilized. His face is calm, as if nothing has happened.
No wonder he is a close minister of the emperor in the court. His ability to remain calm is not something that ordinary people can match.
Nan Yan became a little upset when she heard this, and a slightly accusing expression immediately appeared on her face.
Perhaps it was because Jin Lili used to be comforting and yielding to her, instead of being so cold now, which made her feel uncomfortable for a while. "But when you kissed me at the foot of the mountain before, didn't you suddenly lean over to me? What's wrong with me kissing you? Besides, we can do this with our current relationship."
At the end of her words, her voice became lower and lower. Although her tone was righteous and confident, her face also contained a hint of shyness and discomfort, and her cheeks seemed to be slightly red as if stained with clouds.
At this moment, Jin Lili's desire gradually cooled down. Hearing what she said, he thought of the scene of praying in the temple in the past. It was originally a very beautiful memory, but as soon as he thought of the person in front of him pretending to be someone else and deceiving him,
He couldn't help but feel that it was a bit ironic, and a sneer appeared on his face, "Really? Yanyan said this, could it be that you are eager to get married and want me to marry you back home as soon as possible?"
His original intention in saying this was to mock Miss Li in front of him for not being reserved and subtle enough, and not having the demeanor of a lady from a noble family. A normal person would have been ashamed and embarrassed, but the man in front of him obviously had a different mind from a normal person, and she could not hear the sarcasm in his words at all.
The ebony eyes blinked twice, and then she nodded very honestly. Like a little chicken, her hands climbed onto his arms without her knowing when, her eyes sparkling, "How did you know? I just wanted to marry you as soon as possible."
There was a hint of impatience in the tone.
Jin Li was speechless for a moment: "..."
What else can I say? Her mind is completely unable to keep up with my rhythm, and she can't even hear the sarcasm.
Perhaps it was because Jin Lili's expression was too obvious that Nan Yan finally felt shy. A blush spread across her face unconsciously. Then she turned her head uncomfortably and stared at her shoes, poking them with two fingers together.
"I've read in the storybooks that after marriage you can be husband and wife, and can do many things that only husband and wife can do. The book says that the feeling is lingering and soul-stirring..."
The more she spoke, the redder her face became. Her little face was puffed up with anticipation. She had absolutely no reserve and subtlety of a girl at all. She was going too far!
Jin Lili couldn't stand it anymore, so he raised his hand and knocked her on the head, "What kind of messed-up story have you read recently? Can you just talk about this kind of thing?"
Nan Yan immediately cried out "ouch", touched her head which was hurt by the blow, and showed an aggrieved expression on her face again. Then she calmly began to play the pig and eat the tiger.
"I didn't read much, just a few books..."
As she spoke, she raised her eyes to look at him again, her eyes were watery and cautious, as if she was sharing with him a treasure she had treasured for many years. "It's the latest sequel to "Jade Tower Spring Love" published by Zhang Family Book House. Xiao Tao fought for it for a long time. If you want to read it, I can lend it to you."
Jin Lili's face suddenly turned dark. He was really impressed by her. He found that when he was with her, his thoughts were easily led astray.
So he stretched out his hand and pushed the man away, "Enough, what nonsense are you talking about? Do you think I am like you, ignorant and ignorant, just reading these messed up things all day long?"
This man was quite oppressive when he had a blank expression on his face, especially when his deep and quiet eyes stared at people without blinking. It was hard not to be scared. Perhaps he wanted to use his eyes to make the man in front of him shut up. If it were in the past, this trick should have worked well. After all, the original owner, Li Nanyan, was a little afraid of this fiancé, but now...
Nan Yan was not angry even after being scolded.
She even wanted to laugh in her heart. It was better for him to be angry. Being angry showed that he still cared about her in his heart. She should always draw out the emotions hidden in his heart.
As she spoke, she seemed to think of something again. She tilted her head and asked him with some doubts, "But I didn't understand something. The book said, "Take off her shirt, play with her tongue, and then you and I." , and finally twist gently and slowly..."
"Shut up!"
Before she could finish her words, the other party covered her mouth tightly, fearing that she would utter another nonsense word.
It's really unbearable to hear.
Jin Xinli couldn't help it this time. Lord Jin, who always called the shots in the court and made his colleagues in the Imperial Academy blush and speechless, felt the humiliation of a little girl for the first time today. He couldn't hit her, and she couldn't understand him at all. Being angry with her was just a waste of his own feelings. It was really uncomfortable.
Jin Lili even had difficulty breathing for a moment, "Li Nanyan, you are very bold now, what kind of immoral and vulgar things are you watching? Can you say such obscene words to men casually? Confiscate all the scripts, all of them!"
Jin Xinli was really angry this time, and his face turned slightly red. He was really impressed by the man in front of him.
He has been in a high position for many years and hasn't felt so aggrieved and irritated for a long time.
Moreover, he found that he didn't know why, but whenever he faced this brainless young lady, all his calmness and rationality were completely shattered.
I really want to knock open this young lady's brain and see what kind of mess is stuffed inside? Is she afraid that he doesn't know that she has no brain?
When Nan Yan saw that Jin Lili was really angry, she immediately stepped forward to coax him in a soft voice. It was unknown where she learned this coaxing skill from. She pulled his arm and rocked him back and forth in her arms, "Okay, okay, can't I just stop talking?"
The pair of moist eyes looked at people eagerly, full of pleading, "I bought those rare books with great difficulty, and spent two months' salary on them. Please don't confiscate them, okay? Master Jin, you are a magnanimous person, please don't bother with a little girl like me, okay?"
Seeing that he was unwilling to give in and his face was as angry as ever, she changed the subject and said,
"Besides, I came to see you today on purpose. I heard from the maid in the mansion two days ago that September 12 is your birthday. I wanted to make you a dinner myself. Jin Lili, please don't be angry, okay?"
After hearing this, Jin Lili, who had been holding a stern face, finally softened. Perhaps what Li Nanyan said inadvertently touched a soft spot in his heart.
In his early years, when he had not yet entered the court as an official, he had only a wet nurse to accompany him on his birthday. When the wet nurse grew old, she would always make him a bowl of longevity noodles on his birthday. Later, the wet nurse died of illness, and he had almost no relatives left in this world. No one had accompanied him on his birthday for all these years.
Li Nanyan suddenly mentioned this, causing Jin Lili to pause for a moment, then looked down at her with a look of surprise in his eyes, "Why, as a young lady, you still cook for me?"
Nan Yan immediately smiled at him, her chest puffed up, her eyes looking at him sincerely, with a mysteriously confident expression on her face, "Of course, of course, I'm here to celebrate your birthday with you. I even learned a few tricks from the maids in the mansion. Wait for me to show you, okay?"
Jin Xinli didn't have any expectations at first, but after hearing her say that, he became a little curious, so he said "hmm" in a light tone, and then said lightly,
"Then you try it."
Haha, it’s a nice thought, but you’ll die if you try it.
Cooking is out of the question; what is important is to cultivate relationships, as this kind of daily interaction is rare.
Nan Yan blinked, and immediately pulled his sleeve and began to beg, "Then can you accompany me? Anyway, you have finished your official business for today, so accompany me. Just sit there and watch. I won't bother you and promise not to delay your rest..."
This endless nagging was really unbearable, especially when looking at Nan Yan's expectant eyes and expression, Jin Linli didn't know whether he had lost his mind or what?
The refusal that was on the tip of his tongue suddenly turned into agreement, and then he looked at Nan Yan who smiled brilliantly at him without hesitation. His fiancée, who usually restrained herself in front of him, now completely let herself go, and directly took his finger and went towards the kitchen. Her expression was almost happier than if she had picked up money.
She was muttering something while leading him, but Jin Lili couldn't hear clearly what she said.
He only felt the other person's soft palm pressing tightly against his palm.
Her little hands were really soft, as if they had no bones, completely different from his palms which were full of floss. But she was not obedient, and her little fingers kept poking and pinching his palms, touching and rubbing them, and she was not at all content.
靳厭離也不知怎麽的,忽然就變得有些心煩意亂了起來,他發現事情似乎有些偏離了自己的掌控,好像從頭到尾,自己都被眼前這女人牽着鼻子走了。
明明從一開始,他是很生氣她冒充自己的救命恩人欺騙了自己的,原本心中對她的厭惡嫌棄不知何時變成了煩躁,最後就變成了現在這樣。
靳厭離皺眉想了會,忽然又想到什麽,心頭的煩亂這才漸漸平複了下去。
他畢竟還要通過她來找到自己真正的救命恩人,現在稍微縱容她一些也無妨,就當是補償了,畢竟這婚約遲早是要退的。
他喜歡的一直都是那個在黑暗中救贖了自己的姑娘,而不是眼前這個冒牌貨。
靳厭離還真就被南嫣牽着進廚房了,剛一進門,原本坐着偷懶的兩個婆子就立馬站起來行禮,拘謹地喊了聲,“大人,您怎麽還親自來了,想吃什麽您讓管家吩咐一聲就行了……”
靳厭離立馬朝兩人擺了擺手,懶得聽她們說那些言不由衷的廢話。
他這個天子近臣是從小過慣了苦日子來的,如今雖然位高權重,但心中仍舊沒什麽君子遠庖廚的酸儒思想,不過靳厭離身居高位久了,又常年一副不茍言笑的模樣,所以這府裏的下人都十分畏懼他,見他來了自然是戰戰兢兢地絲毫不敢懈怠。
兩個婆子被南嫣招呼一聲退下了,然後又拉着靳厭離在一旁的位置上坐下了。
靳厭離長眉微斂,倒也沒嫌棄,看着她從一開始還收拾的有模有樣,頗有種大家閨秀的氣質,不過片刻之後,靳厭離簡直有種想立馬拍死自己的沖動,他覺得自己真是信了她的邪!
廚房裏被她弄得烏煙瘴氣就不說了,殺條魚差點沒把自己手給剁了,魚鱗都不刮的,好不容易收拾到一半,她又不甘示弱去招惹那只剛買回府的大白鵝,那鵝也是她能招惹的嗎?結果被鵝啄得四處逃竄、狼狽不堪,連發髻都松散了,最後眼尾泛着絲絲淚光,哭哭啼啼撲進他懷裏讓他做主。
靳厭離這輩子都沒這麽頭疼過。
他簡直要炸了,還做主?做什麽主?幫她跟一只鵝做主嗎?要不要幫她升個堂,然後重大那鵝三十大板?
還有她到底是來幹嘛來了?說好的給他做飯,陪他過生辰的呢?她是故意來禍害他的?還是來靳府拆家的?
最讓靳厭離不能忍的是,她居然還跟他養的那只貓打起來了!
那只白貓也是個兇悍的主兒,名字叫雪獅,聽着就很威武,脾氣當然也是不好的,平常就愛蹲守在廚房蹭些新鮮小魚吃,今天看到南嫣手裏糟蹋的半死不活的那條魚,雪獅一瞅一個準,直接沖上去叼了魚頭就跑。
開什麽玩笑,這南嫣能忍嗎?
她可還記得清清楚楚的,原劇情裏這貓也是個勢利貓,原主好吃好喝哄着它就是不帶搭理的,平常除了男主誰都不給摸,高高在上那模樣跟這男主一個模子出來的。
偏偏後期正牌女主一出現就完全不一樣了,不給吃的還粘上去蹭着人家,比狗還沒底線,一點貓主子的氣勢都不講了。
對此南嫣是真的覺得離譜,可能這就是正牌女主獨有的特質,強大到連這些貓貓狗狗都難以抵擋。
然後一人一貓就打起來了,一個在前頭跑,一個在後頭追,這場景在府裏倒也成了一大奇觀,尤其是精神矍铄的老管家正在院子裏修剪花枝,聽到府裏傳來的動靜,搖着腦袋笑呵呵地跟靳厭離身邊的小厮感嘆着現在的年輕人真是精力旺盛啊,
“這李小姐還真是咱們大人的克星啊。”
“靳五,你瞧瞧,從前咱們府裏陰沉沉的,連個來做客的朋友都沒有,大人性子冷漠又不愛說話,平日裏忙着處理公務,這府裏連點煙火氣都沒了,果然這李大小姐一來就是不一樣了啊,瞧咱這府裏熱鬧的……”
最後那條魚是被搶回來了,但已經被吃了一半了,最重要的李大小姐竟然還打輸了,被貓撓了一爪子,手背上新添了一道明晃晃的血痕,最後哭哭啼啼撲進靳厭離懷裏求抱求安慰去了。
靳厭離:“……”
他覺得自己真是再次加深對這位大小姐的認知了,以前從沒發現她還有這麽離譜的一面。
他從前只聽身邊的朋友說過那李大小姐性子驕縱不夠溫柔,但他是真的沒想到她跟貓都能打的起來,而且還打輸了,打輸了也就算了,讓他來主持公道是什麽意思?
難道他上去很閑嗎?
這種雞毛蒜皮的小事也要他來管?
不對,應該是這種離譜的事情為什麽會發生在他的府裏?
南嫣還不肯放棄,抽抽噎噎地抱着靳厭離的胳膊,這人從一開始的排斥到此刻已經無力了,南嫣邊哭邊舉着小手遞到他面前,“我都流血了,你就不心疼我嗎?”
“……難道不是你活該?”
靳厭離實在沒忍住訓了一句,低頭看了一眼懷裏的人,她頭發亂糟糟的,眼睛哭得有些微紅,眼尾被淚水浸染得像塗了一層胭脂似的,連袖口都不知道在那兒刮破了,渾身上下哪有一點大家閨秀的氣質啊?
他一開始還覺得生氣,氣到後來發現被氣到的永遠都是自己,然後就不生氣了。
不過瞧着眼前這人委屈巴巴的模樣又有點可憐,他大概是昏了頭才會覺得這樣子的李南嫣還挺真實可愛。
可能真的在朝堂上待久了,見到的那些朝臣、世家公子小姐,無一不是戴着一層虛僞的面具互相拉踩打壓,恨不得弄死對方的情形,如今乍然遇着了這麽一個名符其實的鐵憨憨,靳厭離還覺得挺有意思。
就是莫名有些同情那李大人養了這李小姐這麽多年肯定很不容易!
靳厭離深呼吸了一口氣,終于将心頭亂七八糟的情緒全都平複下去了。
目光又落在她手背上的傷口上,擡手就敲了兩下南嫣的腦袋,“行了,別哭了,你該慶幸雪獅的爪子經常修剪清理過,否則你這傷口肯定要比現在更嚴重。”
“過來,我先給你止血。”
靳厭離說着又皺了眉,直接帶着人去了內室。
南嫣這下也不作妖了,一貫的鬧騰也是會遭人煩的,南嫣自然也是明白這個道理的,就老老實實的找了個位置坐了下來,然後等着這人給她清理傷口。
靳厭離讓身邊的小厮去打了一盆清水,又從室內拿來了一瓶傷藥,然後動作輕柔地替南嫣清理起傷口來。
看到靳厭離小心翼翼的動作,南嫣的嘴角微微翹了翹,看來這人對她也不是一點情意都沒有的啊。
眼見着這氣氛剛好,不發生點什麽的話實在有些對不起她費勁心思營造出來的二人空間,南嫣心底這麽想着。
然後目光就落在對面那人身上了,身為男主,靳厭離的長相自然是不差的,長眉入鬓,眼如墨玉,渾身上下一股沉穩堅毅的氣質,看着就是個果斷而固執的人。
南嫣瞧着瞧着就發現了這人喉結旁邊還有顆小痣,正愁沒什麽能聊的呢,看到那顆小痣,南嫣立馬就忍不住了。
她呼吸微頓,然後小心翼翼地伸手。
“啪——”的一聲。
靳厭離毫不猶豫地打掉了那只朝衣襟伸過去的小手,擡頭掃她一眼,語氣淡淡的,“老實點,我在給你上藥。”
南嫣委屈瞧了人一眼,她能老實才怪了,手是不亂動了,身體卻緩慢靠過去了,靳厭離皺着眉,原本是想直接将人推開的。
結果一不小心弄灑了藥粉,南嫣疼得手一縮,整個人直接就跌進了他的懷裏,她也就順勢不起來了。
這麽好的機會不把握住實在太對不起自己了,于是直接仰頭吻上了他的喉結。
靳厭離一時心跳好似漏了一拍。
他身體微微有些僵硬,喉結不自覺上下聳動了一圈,心髒莫名跳動得有些迅速,南嫣吻的很輕,又好奇似的牙齒輕輕咬了下。
一瞬間,靳厭離完全屏住了呼吸,只感覺脖子處傳來了一股難以言喻的酥麻的癢意,從喉結蔓延,仿佛要癢進心裏,這種感覺實在太陌生了。
他再能克制的情緒此刻也有些繃不住了,仿佛有什麽要從心底突然湧出來一般。
“夠了……”
靳厭離一把将人推開,話一說出口,他才驚覺自己的聲音有多沙啞,偏偏眼前這女人還頂着一張極無辜的面容,當她擡起頭時,兩人距離挨得極近,近到靳厭離幾乎能感受到她此刻的呼吸全都噴灑在了自己的臉上,還帶着她身上獨有的那股香氣。
這一瞬,靳厭離心中明顯有了一絲異樣的感覺,他甚至有些說不清,那到底是什麽感覺,莫名地讓自己……有些心動。
Jin Li's breathing slowed down subconsciously, and his hand rose unconsciously, inexplicably wanting to touch Nan Yan's face, but when he was about to touch her, he suddenly thought of something, which made Jin Li come back to his senses instantly, and his face calmed down slightly.
The hand dropped silently again.
Nan Yan in his arms seemed to have noticed nothing. She blinked her watery eyes twice. It was unknown whether she did it on purpose or really didn't understand. Her eyes lit up, and then she seemed to have discovered something new and whispered, "Jin Lili, your face seems to be a little red! Hey, wait, don't move, your ears seem to be red too."
Of course Nan Yan did it on purpose.
Jin Lili's face turned even redder, and he pinched her chin and said sinisterly, "Shut up, you're the one who made me angry!"
