The vicious villain is pretending to be weak again

There was a mist in front of Jiang Lingyi's eyes, and the black figure became blurred.

She clenched her teeth tightly, not wanting to let her emotions leak too much.

Her soul is no longer 15-year-old Jiang Lingyi, she can't be so fragile.

She forced back the tears in her eyes, but Jiang Lingyi didn't withdraw her tightly clenched hand, she just asked a plausible question.

"Aren't you afraid, in case I..."

Xu Guanlan frowned slightly, his eyes fell on her eyebrows, and his tone remained calm.

"Jiang Abao, I'm not so blind yet."

He pinched Jiang Lingyi's palm, showing a rare expression of dissatisfaction.

"This is the first time you have talked about a private matter with me since I came back."

Jiang Lingyi took a breath, and wanted to withdraw her hand in embarrassment, but it was squeezed even tighter.

Xu Guanlan lowered his head, frowning expressionlessly.

"From the matter of Phoenix Mountain, I clearly came back, but you didn't ask me to go, and you also kept a distance from me in the matter of entering the Privy Council as Lin Jiang. The matter of copying official documents makes it difficult for you, you have found me, and the rest of the time, you can say that you have tried your best to push me out of your plan."

"In the matter of the Marquis of Weiyuan, you resorted to a tricky trick. You knelt and kowtowed all the way from the gate of the palace to the Mingde Hall, but you never revealed the slightest thing to me. If I hadn't handed over the account book to you, I'm afraid I can't even do anything, can I?"

If Zhongshuling doesn't say anything, he will break the casserole and ask the end. Jiang Lingyi was caught off guard by asking one question after another.

Jiang Lingyi was so questioned that she couldn't explain it for a while, she moved her lips, and her vigilance against danger for many years made her excuse herself quickly in her mind.

"How could it be, you are still sick about the Phoenix Mountain matter, how can I bear to put you in danger, Lin Jiang is already on the cusp of the storm, if I make friends with you, Zhongshuling, I'm afraid it will cause people to hate you, It's nothing but right and wrong, besides, Lin Jiang is just a shell. If I have a close relationship with you, then I will be a stranger to you if I change bananas. His Majesty personally handed it over to the Privy Council to do it. Now that you have just returned to the court, you can stand firm and don't get involved in these gossips..."

"As for the bitter trick..." Jiang Lingyi's tongue was dry, and she only felt that the hands pinched by Xu Guanlan were so hot that she felt uncomfortable.

"If I told you in advance, would you agree?"

"No."

Jiang Lingyi immediately felt that she had made sense, and as soon as she straightened her back, Xu Guanlan gave her a look to calm her down.

"It's not worth it for you to do so for a mere Weiyuanhou Mansion."

His brows and eyes were condensed, and the meaning of protection between his words was particularly profound.

Jiang Lingyi frowned, and the vague fragments of memory flashed inexplicably in her mind.

"Xu Jiu~Xu Jiu~ My hands hurt so much, I can't write, you can write for me~ That old man is so annoying, I don't want to listen to his lectures anymore!"

"You can't scold people."

"Then can you help me write it~ hum~ my hands really hurt, look, he made my palms red!"

"Um."

"And last time I can't untie the nine chains, you will teach me how to play later! Also, that Rou Fu recently got a beautiful kite, I want a kite too, I want more kites than her , so many beautiful kites, you draw them for me!"

"……Um."

She looked at her fingertips ticking, imitating that appearance, and softened her voice half-truthfully.

"Xu Jiu, Xu Jiu... I have a headache."

The eyelids of the man who was still cold just now twitched, and his gloomy gaze fell on her forehead.

She lowered her eyelashes with guilt, feeling sorry for her soul in her thirties, half-lived in a world of emptiness and arrogance, and she is used to seeing people in heavy wind and rain, but she still couldn't stop Zhongshu Ling's light eyes.

Just being dissatisfied with the star point is like a mighty force that makes people unbearable.

"Sit down, let me see."

Xu Guanlan's eyebrows relaxed, and he regained his usual calmness.

Jiang Lingyi sat down obediently, and let the man raise his hand to remove her forehead wipe. A very faint fragrance came from his sleeve, which was still a little wet.

She raised her hand belatedly, grabbed the sleeve and rubbed it twice.

During the interval between their conversations, the icy balls had turned into ice water, soaking the thin clothes, and now there are no earth dragons in the house, and it is very cold.

"You're all wet."

Jiang Lingyi raised her hand and pushed away Xu Guanlan's hand that was about to fall on her forehead.

"Change your clothes first, and don't come looking for me with so little clothes on next time."

"I'm not cold."

After Xu Guanlan finished speaking, he circulated his body's internal energy and dried his clothes in a few breaths.

Jiang Lingyi was stunned for a few seconds before realizing that Xu Guanlan was no longer the Xu Shoufu who was seriously injured and suffering from pain and illness.

A feeling of gratitude rose from the bottom of her heart, she nodded and whispered.

"Yes... I forgot, you are very skilled..."

As he spoke, he held her chin with one hand, and held her tightly.

"Don't move, the swelling has subsided, only bruises remain, I'll rub it for you."

After Xu Guanlan finished speaking, he just exerted less than a ounce of force on his fingertips, when there was a gasp from his subordinates.

"hiss!"

Jiang Lingyi frowned, subconsciously showing a bit of coquettishness.

In the past few days, she has been eating three meals a day, and her pale face has also turned a little rosy. At this time, her lips are slightly parted, showing a soul-stirring beauty.

Xu Guanlan's movements sank, causing the little girl to frown even tighter, and the corners of her eyes turned red.

She bit her lower lip and said something softly.

"It hurts~"

Xu Guanlan's heart skipped a beat, and he inexplicably felt that his hands were hot. He lowered his brows, making the strength of his hands lighter, but the slightly hot palm fell on the slightly hot forehead, almost leaking the sound of his turbulent heartbeat. .
