Chapter 118 Lin Shanjuan is really annoying
Lin Shanjuan saw that the time had come and asked with a smile, "Since Supervisor Chu is the top scholar, how about composing a poem to liven up the atmosphere?"
Chu Kuo was stunned for a moment, thought for a while and then agreed. He picked up the pen and wrote, and it was indeed quite talented.
But unfortunately, the word "will" was not included, so Lin Shanjuan was not very satisfied.
Chu Kuo suddenly moved closer and said, "I've heard that Director Lin is extremely intelligent. Why don't you write a poem for me? I'll definitely appreciate it."
Compose poetry?
But I usually only commit crimes, what should I do?
She pretended to be thinking, but in fact she was frantically thinking about the poems she had memorized in her previous life.
Unfortunately, there are too few.
The organization's training for killers obviously did not include "reciting ancient poems to repel the enemy", so she thought about it for a long time, and finally suddenly remembered a line from a movie, and had to use it in a hurry.
"Life is but a hundred years long, so cherish the good times and beautiful scenery, and don't waste them."
Ye Xi was surprised and applauded himself for having a good friend who was both talented in literature and martial arts.
Qi Zhen didn't understand, but he liked it very much.
Only Chu Kuo's eyes suddenly lit up, and he came closer: "What you said, sir, is exactly what I want to say. Don't waste this beautiful day. I offer you a toast!"
Lin Shanjuan had no idea what he understood, but he drank it anyway.
Chu Kuo had already deciphered the explicit hint from Lin Shanjuan's poem—
Isn't the beautiful scenery referring to the present moment? She first asked me to sit next to her, and then hinted that I should "stop wasting time". What else could I not understand?
He wrote with a flourish—"I'll write another poem in reply!"
Everyone only saw him quickly copying on the paper with his pen, and finally handed it to Lin Shanjuan as if offering a treasure: "My lord, keep it."
Ye Xi and Qi Zhen both stretched their necks to see what he wrote. When they saw it, Ye Xi couldn't hold back his knife anymore.
[Cool night, warm wine, cool breeze
The misty clouds seep through the window and intoxicate many people
Just like beautiful scenery always meeting
I tell my love to my beloved.
Lin Shanjuan didn't even look at the meaning of the poem carefully. His eyes searched quickly to see if there was the word he wanted. When he saw that there was one, he immediately blew the ink dry, folded it into two pieces, and put it in his arms.
Seeing this, everyone knew that he had succeeded, and they hurriedly urged Chu Kuo to drink cup after cup. Soon, Chu Kuo fell on the table and was completely drunk.
The banquet ended with Chu Kuo getting drunk. His subordinates dragged Chu Kuo back, while Lin Shanjuan stood up with satisfaction.
Ye Xi was still angry: "This scoundrel! He is so bold! Why didn't you let me take him home? He was drunk anyway. Even if I beat him up, I can still say that he fell on his own."
Qi Zhen interjected quietly, "I gave the order. Those brothers also dislike him."
Ye Xi's expression improved a little, and he bowed: "I won't live with you tonight. It's time for me to go back to the mansion."
Lin Shanjuan imitated her and returned the greeting: "Okay, then we will go back too."
"Where are you going back to?"
A familiar voice suddenly rang out. Lin Shanjuan was startled, but Qi Zhen and Ye Xi reacted even faster and knelt on one knee: "Greetings to Her Royal Highness the Princess."
Qi Zhaomian's gaze swept across the table behind Lin Shanjuan, and finally stopped on Lin Shanjuan's face.
"The Prince Consort is in a good mood."
You haven't been home for a few days, so you're here to have fun?
It turns out that you slept with someone else last night?
What other lechers are there?
Lin Shanjuan, what have you been doing these days?
She clenched her fists in her sleeves and stared at Lin Shanjuan, the anger in her eyes not concealed.
Lin Shanjuan finally realized it was Qi Zhaomian, his eyes flashing with joy: "Qi...Princess! Why are you here!"
Qi Zhaomian narrowed his eyes slightly: "You are allowed to be here, but I am not allowed to be here?"
Lin Shanjuan shrank back, and hurriedly approached her in a flattering manner: "Of course, of course, are you going home now?"
Qi Zhaomian impatiently withdrew his arm: "Whether I go back or not, it has little to do with the Prince Consort."
After she finished speaking, she walked away. Yue Liu followed her without looking away. Only Xiao'er had a sigh on her face, and motioned her to hurry up and follow him back.
Lin Shanjuan gestured "sorry to leave" to Ye Xi and the others and hurried to catch up. Fortunately, Xiao'er deliberately dawdled, giving her time to squeeze into the carriage.
Qi Zhen and Ye Xi walked him to the door and sighed, "Oh no! I'm afraid the boss will be punished."
Ye Xi realized it later: "...Tell me, what I just said, 'I won't sleep with you tonight', is...something wrong?"
Qi Zhen was horrified: "Oh my God, if His Highness really heard this, I'm afraid..."
The atmosphere in the carriage was as silent and tense as they had guessed.
Lin Shanjuan had been trying to hug Qi Zhaomian since he got on the carriage, but was always forced back by Qi Zhaomian's cold eyes.
She didn't know what sentence Qi Zhaomian was most angry about, so she could only say whatever she remembered.
"...Ye Xi has been helping us investigate this case for the past few days. It was already late last night when we finished comparing handwriting. It wouldn't be a good idea to let her ride back on horseback. The Qingzhengsi doesn't have any other rooms, so I gave her my bed and slept on the floor."
Qi Zhaomian listened to her endless excuses and became more and more annoyed.
She originally went to the reception building to meet the butler, but because the butler sent a message saying that he had something important to tell her and that they had to meet in person, she went to the reception building which was the most secluded.
But when he was about to leave, he saw those officials pulling someone out of the private room next door.
She subconsciously took a few slow steps and happened to hear the conversation between Ye Xi and Lin Shanjuan. The sour and stuffy feeling in her mouth could not be dispelled.
In fact, after careful consideration, she realized that she was not only feeling stuffy because they slept in the same room, but more importantly, Lin Shanjuan had not returned to the princess's mansion for several days.
Ever since the last time they slept in the same bed and Lin Shanjuan hummed a song to coax her to sleep, every night, especially when there was no one around, she missed that person's arms and the clear voice lingering in her ears.
Missing him so much every night, she was no longer willing to admit it, nor could she fool herself with other excuses.
She was afraid that she was tired of Lin Shan and missed her very much.
Emotions are beyond one's control, and she doesn't like this feeling.
At her position, she feels most at ease when everything is under control, but she feels very repulsed by the feeling that the initiative is not in her hands.
For example, now, she could clearly go back and read a book, and then go to bed and rest.
But now, because of Lin Shanjuan's disturbing mood, she was not only in a bad mood, but also unable to concentrate on reading for a while, and could not fall asleep quickly.
The rhythm was completely disrupted.
"Shut up." Qi Zhaomian spat out two words with a cold face. She really needed to be quiet for a while, otherwise, her heartbeat would only get faster and faster with Lin Shanjuan's endless explanation.
Lin Shanjuan performed his duties perfectly, pinching the corners of his lips with both hands and giving his financial sponsor a smile that said "I guarantee you'll be satisfied."
Qi Zhaomian looked at her, then suddenly turned his head to make sure Lin Shanjuan couldn't see her expression before he couldn't help laughing.
Lin Shanjuan is really annoying. Sometimes she makes people extremely upset, but all the sorrow will disappear because of one of her actions.
This feeling of being moved by someone.
Really annoying!
