[Lou Li the Pretender] Orphan Note

Today's Ming family mansion is still as calm as a lake, but a burst of messy footsteps disturbed the water.

The young master of the Ming family rushed into the study of the eldest brother of the Ming family, only to see him closing his eyes and resting his mind, and a Bach for cello was playing on the phonograph.

"You sent Yu Manli away?!" It wasn't a question, but a question. Mingtai almost scolded his elder brother angrily. He clearly promised himself——to help her find a good home, why did she send her away? ?

Ming Lou said flatly: "This is not what you should ask."

Mingtai himself promised to let go of this matter, but he still couldn't let it go completely. Minglou thought to himself, this little guy still needs to practice.

"You are too irresponsible. She is not fully recovered from her illness. What should a girl do if something happens during the journey?"

There was a hint in Minglou's eyes suddenly, and he looked towards the door.Mingtai also looked back, Cheng Jinyun was standing at the door, his lips were a little pale.

Obviously, she heard it all.

Mingtai was a little embarrassed at once, Cheng Jinyun smiled reluctantly, "Is it Miss Yu's business? If you are worried about Mingtai, go and have a look."

The tone is relaxed, but the body is tense.

Minglou didn't want to watch the two young men play dirty tricks, so he chased people away, "Hey, Mingtai, take Miss Cheng to see Eldest Sister, she will be in the garden at this time."

Mingtai also didn't want to lose face in front of his elder brother to coax his fiancée, so he immediately dragged Cheng Jinyun away.

Ming Lou lowered his head and turned off the music, and Ah Cheng entered.

"Is everything arranged?" Minglou asked.

"Yes. Turn the boat at three o'clock in the afternoon. If you pass by now, you still have time to have lunch and rest for a while before boarding the boat to avoid nausea."

Minglou smiled slightly, "No, I'll eat in the cabin. Just order for two people."

Mingcheng understood, "Yes, I asked the boat to prepare scallop porridge."

Wusongkou Wharf.

Yu Manli boarded the deck with a small suitcase, and took a last look at the big Shanghai, which was becoming more and more charming. She still had mixed feelings and mixed feelings.

Nostalgia?But also relieved.

After all, she is still young, if she cannot let go of her past, she will not be able to face the future. As for Mingtai, it should be a beautiful history.

But history is history after all, and the coffin is settled, and there is no way to go back on it.

When she boarded the ship, there was a sharp-eyed boy who immediately ran over to show her the way, saying that Ms. Yu's room was in the first-class cabin, and the lighting and Feng Shui were among the best in the whole ship.

When we arrived at the room, it was really gorgeous and quiet. The servant put down Yu Manli's luggage and added: "Miss Yu, there is a piano room next to it. If you are interested, you can go and have a look."

He regarded her as a young lady, and thought that she would definitely want to go to the piano room for entertainment.

Yu Manli smiled, and took out a coin to the boy, "Someone must have rewarded you, but this is what I rewarded, which is different from them."

The boy hesitated.

Yu Manli put the coins into the boy's bag pocket, "Don't think too little."

She was naturally agile, with such a smile, the sunlight in the room danced between her eyebrows, the servant was stunned and showed a shy smile.

He hurriedly thanked her, and gently closed the door for Yu Manli.

The smile on Yu Manli's face gradually receded, as if she had never smiled, but was replaced by a faint sense of melancholy.

The Ming family took such good care of her, but it made her uneasy.She just wanted to forget the past, and she didn't want to owe anything to others, and she couldn't avoid the favor of the Ming family.

Forget it, since she can't escape this small benefit, she doesn't have to worry too much about it.Anyway, only this time.Thinking of this, she felt a little relaxed again.

There is nothing left to do, so coincidentally, there is a melodious piano sound coming from the next door.

The sound of the piano is like a key, unlocking the beautiful memories treasured by Manli.

She remembered——Mingtai played the piano well, with long and slender fingers, and she was listening to it at the time, with an inexplicable pride in her heart.

He was obviously trying to avoid the enemy in embarrassment, but he was able to adapt to the situation, still calm, graceful and skillful, good family education and natural nobility, but she was far away from her.

Now that she looks back on this experience, she is relieved: How can her Hunan minor be accompanied by piano music?If you are not a person all the way, short-term companionship cannot be exchanged for long-term companionship, as it should be.

She changed into a light pink long dress, her hair was a little loose, and she was tied up in a low bun with some loose on her shoulders. She looked like a very standard celebrity.

She thought that all the passengers were boarding the ship at this time, so no one would go to the piano room, but who was playing the piano?The pianist on board?

This shipping company has a long-term cooperative relationship with the Ming family, so the Ming family has a long-term ferry ticket——Obviously, this room is also reserved for the Ming family. It is too clean and luxurious, but it doesn't look like a cabin.

Yu Manli gradually realized that Mingtai lived such a life before.

Rich clothes and good food are just the imagination of the poor, but being rich is more than just having enough food and clothing?The current room is a luxury beyond her imagination.

Walking outside the piano room, she took a look through the window.

Just this one glance, but it will be unforgettable for a lifetime.

Her feet were nailed to the wooden board in an instant, but her eyes were staring straight into the room, as if she had seen a ghost.

The "ghost" inside didn't realize it, and still fiddled with the keys, the posture was very casual, but the music was very smooth.

Quite different from Mingtai Xuanji's playing method, Minglou's appearance of playing the piano is more like a meditative poet. His rhythm is not so standardized, but he has a style of his own, with a kind of chicness that comes from excitement.

It seems to be very different from his surface rigor, but he also has such a side.

Yu Manli didn't even realize that the corners of her lips were slightly raised at this moment, revealing an expression that resembled a smile.

This short smile was caught by Minglou who just turned his head inadvertently at the end of an ending.

He stopped and smiled genuinely, "Miss Yu, what a coincidence, are you also taking this boat?"

Ah Cheng booked the tickets together, but he asked knowingly.

Yu Manli laughed to herself, but said, "What is Mr. Ming doing in Hunan? Teaching? Doing business?"

It's not like he wants to follow her back to his hometown, right?

Yu Manli knew his code name and multiple identities of the poisonous snake Cobra, but she didn't think that her mere lieutenant needed to ask an officer of his level to help.

Minglou opened the door and motioned for her to come in, "I heard you can sing."

Yu Manli sneered, "Mr. Ming heard about it? This is not like your style of doing things."

It is clear that all the anecdotes and files are clear, and it is even hypocritical, really hypocritical.

Minglou neither denied nor admitted, but still smiled, "Which one do you prefer?"

Yu Manli shrugged, "It doesn't matter. It has nothing to do with me."

Minglou wanted to laugh again, she really knew how to frustrate men.

But unfortunately, she is still too young in his eyes. If she lives a few more years, maybe he will be overwhelmed. Right now, she is more like a kitten with teeth and claws, wishing that others would think she is a mother. tiger.

He glanced at her clear and beautiful eyes——huh, tiger?After all, it's too unreasonable.

Yu Manli walked to the piano and pressed a few keys casually, "I can indeed sing, but the men who have heard me sing are all dead."

In the past, it was sung to the eldest brother, who was killed by water bandits.She sang to those enemies again, and took the opportunity to kill them one by one.Later, when she was on a mission, she would paralyze the enemy with her soft singing voice, and when the opponent relaxed, she would kill her with one blow.

Therefore, no living man has ever heard of Manli's singing.

Except...Mingtai.

Ming Lou suddenly moved closer to her, his breath was close to her ear, "Want to learn the piano?"

Yu Manli was taken aback for a moment, and at this moment of hesitation, Minglou had already pulled her onto the piano bench. He pressed her hand, "From here on, make a half fist first..."

His breath has a faint lemon aroma, his hands are warm, his coat is folded on the side of the piano bench, he smiles slightly, the corners of his mouth are raised, restrained like a sword.

Yu Manli knew that the man in front of her was different from any man she had ever seen in her life.

He is too aggressive, but he behaves more harmlessly than anyone else. This kind of routine is also used by her. Now she sees a opposite sex using it with her own eyes, and she is more familiar with it than herself, she just feels shuddering.

This chilling feeling is a kind of sympathy and an instinct of self-protection.

Yu Manli's sixth sense was activated - Minglou is dangerous, not as an enemy, but precisely because he is not an enemy.

The natural enemy of women.

She came to a conclusion.
