Xue Mingyue didn't feel that she was soft-hearted.

She just doesn't understand that a person can really pretend so well when he wants to. For several years, he has a different appearance in front of different people.

"This house was actually taken down with the help of the Lin family, I know."

Xue Mingyue lowered her eyes, listening to the whistling wind in her ears, and said calmly: "He thought I didn't know anything. After my mother passed away, I only cried and cried, and insisted that he stay with me. "

Xie Lang's expression moved slightly and he turned his head to look at her.

Xue Mingyue raised her lower lip mockingly, her clear eyes filled with coldness.

"But I actually know everything. The servants in the mansion will always gossip in private. I have heard it many times. They all said that my father went out frequently during those days, but it was actually to meet Miss Lin's family. , they will be changing hostesses soon.”

"Hmm... let me think about it, it should be the Lantern Festival of the same year."

Xue Xujun rarely took her out to visit the lantern festival.

The father and daughter were walking along the street. At that time, her eyes were filled with the lively and noisy lantern festival, and she did not realize that Xue Xujun was actually leading her forward with great purpose. Then she saw the people waiting by the bridge early. Lin's.

She was just a child that year.

Xue Xujun soon started talking to Lin. The two had a good conversation and introduced her to Lin. Although she didn't understand or understand, she had a subconscious resistance to Lin.

Then the two naturally came together side by side.

As for her, she was handed over to the servants of the two families. The servant of the Lin Mansion was worried that her distress would disturb Xue Xujun and Lin's good affairs, so he forcibly took her away from the two of them, leaving her alone by the bridge.

At the Shangyuan Lantern Festival, there was a huge crowd of people.

The boys stared at her for a while, waiting for her to finish crying. After she calmed down, they left her alone. However, she was not tall to begin with, so she couldn't see anyone when she was squatting on the ground. It didn't take long for her to be accidentally put on a river lantern. Tourists were so crowded that they fell into the river.

The boys didn't even realize that she had fallen into the water at first.

The person who rescued her later seemed to be a half-year-old boy. She couldn't remember his appearance. Even Xue Xujun couldn't find him, but she only knew that if it weren't for him, she might have died that year. It’s the Lantern Festival.

It was also at this time that she got the root of her illness.

Xie Langfeng's eyes suddenly widened, her pupils shook slightly, and her hands hanging by her sides clenched in surprise.

Shangyuan Lantern Festival...

Suddenly remembering the past many years ago, Xue Mingyue's mood suddenly became bad. To be honest, the memory of choking in the water was really not a good one, not to mention it was still winter, the river was already freezing cold, and she still struggled in the river for so long.

This incident left a heavy shadow on her.

So in the last life, after Princess Cen accidentally ate walnut powder and fainted, Bai Zhenzhen provoked her by the pond, causing her to fall into the pond. She did not dare to go to save her at that time because she was afraid of water.

Xue Mingyue sneered and speculated maliciously: "I thought it was an accident before, maybe this was their plan."

Mrs. Lin didn't want to face the daughter left by the former wife after marrying in, and Xue Xujun didn't want to see her ruin his good deeds. After all, climbing up to Mrs. Lin was equivalent to grabbing the Qingyun Ladder.

The two hit it off immediately, so they wanted her to die accidentally.

But I didn't expect that she was so lucky that she survived even if she fell into the river. It's hard to say that after Lin married into the family, he tried every means to send her to her grandfather, not because he felt guilty when he saw her.

It took Xie Lang a long time to find his voice.

He pursed his lips, his dark eyes were bright, and his gaze fell on her fair and delicate profile: "If you want to know the truth, I can help you ask."

To be able to remember one thing to this day must be something she can't let go of.

Xue Mingyue turned around with the small heater in her arms, looked at him strangely, and shook her head: "There is no need to ask, I don't even care about their life or death, so how can I care about such a small thing."

Than knowing if they really wanted to harm her.

What she wants to know more now is the young man who disappeared after saving her. She doesn't even know who her benefactor is.

Thinking of this, Xue Mingyue couldn't help but tsk: "Xue Xujun is such a waste."

Can't even find anyone.

No wonder after ten years he was just the Minister of Etiquette.

Xie Lang raised his eyebrows, secretly clenched his fists, and after a moment, moved his lips: "Actually, I..."

Xue Mingyue only listened for half a moment before she showed a stunned expression and looked at him apologetically: "Sorry, I couldn't control myself when I got back here. I accidentally talked for so long. Did it delay the Marquis? Already?"

"I'll take you to the study right now. Come on."

After saying that, she turned around and walked forward.

Xie Lang: "..."

He laughed helplessly, his clenched fist first loosened, then clenched again.

That’s all, there will be plenty of time to talk about those old things in the future.

Xue Mingyue had just started talking enthusiastically and could say anything with her bald tongue. Now walking on the road, she couldn't help but start to recall whether she had leaked anything. After confirming that she hadn't, she felt a little relieved.

However, after saying these words, I felt really relaxed.

Mainly because the person who heard this was Xie Jinglan, he would definitely not tell these things, so she was even more relieved.

Xue Mingyue held the hand warmer, her apricot eyes slowly curved.

This relaxation lasted until she entered the study. Her face suddenly fell. She stared closely at the picture of a lady hanging behind the desk, and the smile on her face faded.

Since moving here, she rarely entered Xue Xujun's study, so she discovered that the lady in this painting was also her mother.

Why should he continue to use his mother’s portrait?

He has taken advantage of everything, and now he still wants to continue to use his mother to burnish his reputation as a beloved wife?

Xue Mingyue suppressed her dissatisfaction: "The layout of this study is similar to that of the old house. If nothing else happens, there must be a secret passage hidden here."

Yes, Xue Xujun is such a person.

There is a hint of caution and stability in his temperament.

Xie Lang stretched out his hand to stop her and said sternly: "Don't go, in case there is a trap, I will pick off the painting."

Xue Mingyue thought that was not the case, but when she met his serious eyes, she nodded subconsciously.

"Be good, Xue Xujun's treatment will be similar to that of Bai Zhenzhen."

Seeing her such a well-behaved look, Xie Lang's lips curled up slightly, and a smile overflowed from his eyes.

Xue Mingyue was stunned for a moment. By the time she realized what comparison meant, Xie Lang had already stepped forward and peeled off the picture of the lady. Behind the picture was a flat wall.

His eyes darkened slightly, he tapped his fingers from top to bottom, and listened intently.

Soon I discovered that there was a place where the sound sounded different. I fumbled and pressed it, only to hear a "click-", and sure enough, a mechanism opened, revealing the white jade flower decoration inside.

Xue Mingyue stood on tiptoes and took a look.

Reminder: "Hold it to turn right."
