CHAPTER 201 - IF IT WEREN'T FOR THOSE GIRLS WHO BRING CALAMITY UPON THE PEOPLE

Since that's the case, it's not good to keep you waiting. Difeng, senior sister will be leaving first." Dong Ling Wan turned her head to look at Xiao Qian.

Liang Zixiao turned his head to look at Xiao Qian and discovered that his expression wasn't too good.

Even though they were good brothers, Liang Zixiao still couldn't help but to feel insulted in his heart. She was four years younger than him, and she was his beloved woman. But she was his senior apprentice-sister. As a man, when faced with such an embarrassing situation, Xiao Qian was quite pitiful.

Mister had instructed me to prepare the horse carriage and horses very early. The three ladies and the four young masters need not trouble myself. The person bowed once again and continued, Mister said that a friend of the three ladies has come to visit. If this friend doesn't mind, please introduce the three ladies to her.

Cough, cough. Liang Zixiao almost choked on his own saliva. What was Mister Mu trying to do? This water was already muddled enough, and he still wanted to cause trouble? Although Mister Mu is a bit eccentric and likes to cause trouble, but … I beg you, please don't be disrespectful to me when it comes to matters that you shouldn't care about!

Dong Ling Wan glanced at Xiao Qian, then turned back to Xiao Xun, and said with a bit of difficulty: A … Mu Hua?"

Since you've been addressed as mister by Wan, it should be a visit from a junior. Now that mister has given the order, there should be no reason for you to be so presumptuous. Xiao Xun slightly nodded towards that person. He was very polite, but he secretly turned his head back and openly winked at Dong Ling Wan. Everyone saw it, but they just couldn't see him.

Xiao Xun's playful look amused Dong Ling Wan, and she couldn't help but cover her mouth with her handkerchief and laugh. Then, with a stern face, she said, If that's the case, I'll have to trouble you to lead the way. Di Feng, Mu Hua, let's go."

When they reached the window, they saw Ling Wan being helped into the carriage by XunYou. Xiao Xun and Xiao Qian were riding on horseback on either side of the carriage, pushing the lantern-dyed candles to the back of the carriage.

Swish. Liang Zixiao frowned, but smiled wantonly. A prince, a prince, a character who could shake the world with a single stomp of his foot, and yet, he allowed a woman to command him like a bodyguard? I'm afraid not even they would have thought of such a thing!

Liang Zixiao's tone was full of ridicule. If it wasn't for Yang Zhe knowing him for so many years, he might have really thought that he had a grudge with the Xiao family's two brothers.

If it weren't for such a beautiful woman, … I really want to kill her with a single slash! " Liang Zixiao's words really did sound like he was gritting his teeth.

Yang Zhe turned his face to look at Liang Zixiao. If it wasn't what?

If it wasn't for the fact that they were tied to this woman wholeheartedly and knew that the two of them were lovers, who knows what would have happened to this woman? If it wasn't for … Yang Zhe sighed. At the end of the day, it should be because of Ling Wan's identity!

The Phoenix Guards were not to be trifled with. After killing Eastern Ling Wan, he would not be far from destroying his own family!

Even though he knew that she was a scourge, he still couldn't scold her. He couldn't touch her, and he definitely couldn't kill her. This was the most hateful part of her!

Today, from start to finish, he didn't say a single word, because he didn't know what to say either.

This group of people had stumbled their way through the past few years, and no one was that young. He knew in his heart what he was going to do, and every decision he made would have consequences he had to bear. No one else could help him.

Big brother Yang, when Ying was young, I heard Second Miss Dong address herself as Big brother Xiao … Senior sister. However, why have I never heard of Elder Brother Xiao mentioning it before? Wang Ying hesitated for a moment, but the meaning behind her words was clear. Ying, remember that Lil Sis Zi Su is also …"

Yingying, Second Miss is indeed the third disciple of Mister Mu. Yang Qing's tone was heavy. Perhaps, Eastern Ling Wan was really Xiao Gan's fated calamity. Otherwise, this Eastern Ling Wan would really be too haunting, and she would be everywhere!

Mister Mu … Mr. Mu knew about his pickiness towards Wang Ying. She thought that Dong Ling Wan was the same as Zi Su and that they were both under Lady Lu Shang's name. Who knew … Wang Ying was a bit sad.

While looking at Wang Ying from afar, a trace of coldness flashed through Shao Lian's heart. Wang Ying, ah Wang Ying, this is the result of your high opinion of yourself. However, don't give up. I haven't seen enough of this show!

Without a word, the three of them walked up the mountain all the way to the entrance of the small building that was climbing clouds.

When she got out of the car, before Xunyou could steady himself and pick her up, Xiao Xun was the first to extend his hand. Dong Ling Wan was slightly startled when she saw Xiao Xun smile at her, and didn't know what to do.

He hid his hands in his sleeves and stretched them out, but neither did he do so. Dong Ling Wan frowned slightly as she stealthily glanced in Xiao Qian's direction, only to discover that his gaze hadn't stopped there. She couldn't tell what he was feeling in her heart.

He placed his hand on Xiao Qian's arm and got off the carriage.

Seeing that Ling Wan hadn't put her hand in Xiao Xun's palm, Xiao Qian heaved a sigh of relief. Even the haze that had been covering his heart for the past few days gradually dissipated, turning bright and clear.

Mister's temper... However, do not think too much about it. He will not do anything to you. These words were a bit awkward. Who was the disciple that dared to speak to his master like that? Eastern Ling Wan couldn't help but lower her head.

When Xiao Xun saw her, he couldn't help but laugh, I'm not even a three year old child. What kind of scene have I not seen before? Even if he is your master, he can't eat me, right?

Don't be so glib, if you dare to be disrespectful to me, I'll call someone to cover you with a gunny sack to help you loosen your bones! Dong Ling Wan pretended to be fierce.

You're the good one, Dong Ling Wan. We've been friends for so many years, yet you're actually so heartless now. I've truly misjudged you back then!

I am such a heartless person. What are you going to do to me?

Xiao Qian, who was standing not far from them, felt his heart ache as he heard the flirtatious conversation between the two. This woman, Dong Ling Wan was quite special. He had never seen anyone admit to it so readily!

Third Senior Sister, please don't let Mister wait for too long.

This form of address made Eastern Ling Wan's eyebrows twitch. Being called Sis by someone four years older than her made her feel weird. What was this Xiao Qian? Revenge? It looked like … It was him who suffered a loss.

Hearing this sentence, Xiao Qian was also stunned. 'Why did I say that?' However, he really couldn't stand the love and kindness of these two people. If he continued to watch them, he didn't know what he would do.

Seeing the strange expression on Dong Ling Wan's face, Xiao Qian felt a little guilty. Fortunately, a servant boy came out to receive them. Mister, this way please.

CHAPTER 202 - CHANGE IDENTITY

The three of them did not speak much and allowed the child to lead them into the backyard. Mu Juyun sat by the stone table and leisurely cleaned the teacups. There were two jars of wine on the table. The outside of the jug was very clean. It was clear that it had been cleaned, and the water was still dripping.

Seeing the three of them walk over, Mu Yunji didn't say anything. He only waved at the boy and said, Go. The boy left.

Mu Juanyun turned his head to look at Eastern Ling Wan and smiled, Third sister, you're here? Come, sit down! Come take a look at what this is."

Dong Ling Wan at least understood her master's personality, so she replied happily, and sat down straightforwardly, while Number Four ignored the two embarrassed looking people behind him: Sir, the three of us are here, the wine pot should be opened, right? You want to treat us to wine, but you're not allowed to go back on your words!

You damned girl, you can't drink this! Do you know what this is? This is Peach Blossom Wine! " Mu Bingyun nodded her head.

So what if it's Peach Blossom Wine? If it's wine, then it's for someone to drink!

Why does this lady love to drink so much!? It's fine if it's the one beside you, but this Peach Blossom Wine must never be in your hands! Just in case one day you become so greedy that you start drinking this wine! " Mu Juyun took the two jars of wine from the table and held them in front of him as if they were protecting some amazing treasure.

I also ate quite a lot of the Peach Blossom Wine to braise the live prawns. How can I change it to wine and let it taste so good? What kind of logic is this! Dong Ling Wan pouted unhappily.

Say less! Your mistress is busy in the small kitchen. Go help him.

I won't. Dong Ling Wan furrowed her brows as she pouted slightly, showing her dissatisfaction with the matter. She secretly tugged on Mu Yu's sleeve as she acted like a spoiled child.

If you don't know how to learn, then go learn! It's a girl's house, so I won't do anything. Even if I marry into my husband's family, it would arouse their dislike! Mu Juanyun smiled and completely ignored the two beside him. He only focused on chatting with Dong Ling Wan.

Teacher only knows how to dupe people, not to drink or not to drink, and he even has so many reasons to chase them away! If I don't drink it then that's fine, what's there to be proud of? Drinking a few more mouthfuls won't cause gold to fall from the sky! His words were filled with a strong sour taste.

Yo, sour grapes in the middle of the month? Her tone is so sour! Mu Juyun teased. Then, he let out a long sigh. Third young lady, it's not that I don't want to give it to you, but this jar of wine. You really can't drink it.

Judging from your words, the pot on the side should be fine! Eastern Ling Wan loved to find mistakes in his words.

This wine... It's your sister's. "

Ding –

The cup that Eastern Ling Wan had been playing with in her hand suddenly dropped onto the stone table. A crack appeared on the white porcelain cup of the high quality Thou kiln. Fortunately, Dong Ling Wan was playing around in her hands out of curiosity, and didn't pour any tea, or else she would be in trouble today!

How could she not know what the Peach Blossom Wine was used for? How could she not guess the purpose of Teacher's call for them today? It was just that … He didn't want to face this problem.

When Mu Juyun saw this, he glared at her. A good set of cups! You're missing a cup because you're not paying attention!

Eastern Ling Wan pursed her lips, not saying anything.

Mu Juyun scolded her for not being willing to scold her. She only cast her gaze in the direction of the door. There was a hint of nostalgia in her eyes. She could not help but tell her the past and her old friend.

This Peach Blossom Wine should have been personally brewed by your father. Unfortunately, your father knows that. When Mu Juanyun said this, his mouth was filled with loathing.

Ever since your sister was born, he has been learning how to make peach blossom wine. Unfortunately, even after you were born, she was still unable to succeed. Your dad really doesn't have that kind of talent. Out of ten times, he didn't succeed even once, so he had to beg me for help.

It doesn't matter if I've made it for him. He insisted on burying it in my yard, saying that he can raise some spiritual energy. Mu Juyun laughed as if she was helpless, You two sisters buried the vats together. Now, 20 years have passed and that girl, Rao Yu, is unlucky. Today, Master did not know how to deal with this wine, so he brought you here.

That's right, when he first entered the palace, he was just a small family member. Despite his strong background, he was just a newbie who had just entered the palace. He was only a slightly younger girl compared to the other empress.

A wedding? Unless he could be an imperial concubine or queen in his life, there was no need to long for a wedding. Being able to survive was already a great fortune.

I … Dong Ling Wan frowned, then whispered, You might as well not say anything!

If she didn't know where the wine came from and who the wine was made for, Dong Ling Wan might have been confused and depressed. But now that she knew, it really gave her a big problem.

Big Sister's things should naturally be sent back to Big Sister. Even though Big Sister is not here anymore, this thing really is there and can't be ignored. However, what made her feel awkward was that if it was just the Peach Blossom Wine, there would be nothing wrong with it. Sending it over would only add fuel to the fire, right?

Add Blocks... Eastern Ling Wan smiled. I'll have to trouble you to deliver this child to the Xue Prefecture's Guardian's estate. Tell them that it was little Wan'er who invited him here for a drink.

Little Wan'er …" Xiao Qian couldn't help but think back to that night at the Prince's Mansion. He couldn't help but frown when he looked at Eastflow Wan. She had said before that when she grew up, she would marry a man like Xue Yu. Although she was only six or seven years old back then, she was the most likely to have the heart of a child. Resentment born of love.

Third girl!

Of course Mu Juyun knew what Dong Ling Wan meant, and he deeply regretted Dong Ling Yu and Xue Yu's past. But after so many years had passed, some things should have been put aside long ago, while the third girl …

Mu Juyun's gaze towards East Ling Wan contained a hint of reproach, but East Ling Wan simply lowered her head, refusing to look at him.

Alright, go to the kitchen! Shang Lu, take her away and teach her what a woman's character is!

Mister! Dong Ling Wan didn't expect that Mu Yu Yun wouldn't give her face in front of Xiao Qian and Xiao Xun. She felt wronged.

Alright, alright. Follow Mistress!

Dong Ling Wan left reluctantly, but the two people who had been waiting at the side saw through Mu Juanyun's intentions. It was obvious that they wanted to separate Dong Ling Wan from him.

The two of them looked at each other in a rare moment of tacit understanding before simultaneously bowing to Mu Juyun, respectfully greeting her.

My two esteemed seniors, this gift is something my old man cannot accept! As he said this, Mu Juyun did not show any signs of not being able to stand it. He sat upright at the stone table and received their greetings. Then, he smiled and said, Everyone, take a seat!

The two of them sat on either side of Mu Juanyun. Mu Juanyun personally poured a cup of tea for each of them and slowly said, "Back then, my personal relationship with Haojie was not bad. I think it's not too much to ask about the matter between the third girl and Yi Chuan.

CHAPTER 203 - YOU'RE THE ONE WHO'S MAKING IT DIFFICULT FOR ALL OF US!

The two of them already knew where Mu Juyun's intentions were. Even Xiao Xun, who was not very satisfied with Mu Guanyun earlier, was feeling a little nervous. After all, she was an elder, and one that was looking at the younger generation with the status of an elder of Wan.

This father-in-law of his was as upright as a son-in-law. Even when he was facing Donghao Jie in the past, he had never been as upright and upright.

The two of them did not dare to say much and only replied respectfully, Yes.

Mistress!

Eastern Ling Wan held onto Madame Shang Lu's sleeve, unwilling to leave. Seeing that she didn't want to force her, Madame Shang Lu pulled him to a small pavilion not too far away.

Third girl, what are your plans for today? Madam Shang Lu frowned. The marriage of the third young girl had truly worried her. She was already 11 years of age, not 11!

I … Eastern Ling Wan hesitated for a moment, biting her lower lip. She didn't know what to say, but she didn't know what to say either.

Actually, she was not very anxious about that. After all, he was someone who wanted to spend his entire life with her. If he chose the wrong person, it would be a lifetime of torture.

Mu Juanyun looked at the two Xiao siblings and also didn't say anything. He only let out a long sigh, Third sister has been a little spoiled since she was young and has dominated the family a little. With such a family background, this old man has long known that it would be difficult for her to find a husband in the future.

A daughter's family needs to be pampered. Xiao Xun interrupted.

You youngster, your words are exactly the same as her father's! Mu Juyun chuckled. After he finished speaking, he looked at his disciple who was expressionless and cursed in his heart, This piece of wood!

Mistress, please don't make things difficult for me anymore. Eastern Ling Wan avoided Lady Lu's gaze.

Third girl, this was originally your personal matter, so you shouldn't ask too many questions. But now, you have to say one more word. In this life, you can be selfish, but you can't mess around with people you truly care about. You can't provoke other people's feelings. Now, it's not Mistress who is making things difficult for you. It's you who is making things difficult for them, all of us.

I … Eastern Ling Wan opened her eyes wide. How was this possible? I'm just … This was only his own private matter, how could it involve others?

Dong Ling Wan felt that Mistress had made a big fuss over nothing. She was clear on who she was. If she really had that much ability, wouldn't she have flipped the sky long ago?!

Third girl, as matters stand, this matter no longer concerns you alone. In this world, no one can exist independently. We must rely on the help and sacrifice of others in order to be able to live a more stable life. If that's not the case, we need to step on someone else to climb up.

All the people in this world are inextricably linked. There is never anything that belongs solely to that person. There is joy, there is sorrow, and every sword has a wound.

You don't seem to have experienced any setbacks in these matters, so you don't understand what you're doing for others. Do you ever think about what will happen to people you don't know, or to people you don't know, or to people you do know?

Don't always feel that everything belongs to you alone. You feel that no one else has the right to interfere. Third Girl, you're not alone, you've never been. Listen to Mistress and think about it carefully. Don't think about hurting the people around you just because of your thoughts, okay?

Mistress, are you saying all this just to teach me a lesson? Dong Ling Wan wasn't angry, she just didn't understand, and looked at Madam Shang Lu with a pair of puzzled eyes.

You … Madam Shang Lu felt a headache coming on. She pointed at Eastern Ling Wan but did not speak for a long time. In the end, she swung her sleeves and sat down at the table with her hands on her forehead, not saying another word.

Mistress, you … Are you alright? "

It's not a disaster, it's a blessing! Madam Shang Lu sighed. He then waved his hand, Go to your Mr Mu!

Dong Ling Wan wasn't at ease with Madam Lu and insisted on staying. However, Madam Shang Lu refused to accept no matter what. She just told her to leave.

Towards Mistress' attitude, Eastern Ling Wan felt wronged. She didn't know what she had done wrong, so why was Mistress so angry? However, she did not dare to stay any longer. She did not want her mistress to be too agitated, so she had no choice but to leave.

After Dong Ling Wan had left, Madam Shang Lu looked in the direction she had left, feeling powerless. What a sin!

As she walked, her heart was completely empty. This caused her to feel incomparably cold and desolate. She didn't know what she had done wrong. Why did she blame herself one by one?

She was only choosing her own happiness. Why did everyone want to mix themselves with so many chores and blame her for being a demon, calling her a scourge, cursing herself one by one for receiving retribution?

She really didn't understand. This was her own problem, what right did they have to talk about it? Even if she was more probing when it came to matters of the heart, that was her own business. If you can't stand it, don't provoke me!

Why! It was her fault if she could not get what she wanted, but what did it have to do with her? If she could not get what she wanted, then it was her fault. If she did not want to get what she wanted, then it was her fault. What did it have to do with them?

She wasn't a saint who cared about the world. She only wanted to live a peaceful life. If someone came to disturb her with such a small request, then she couldn't be soft-hearted and be bullied.

Since they had provoked her, they had to be prepared to risk their lives. There was no one who would not take responsibility for what they had done and not pay the price. Offending him, that was the result. Was he wrong?

What was she at fault for, it was just that the ones that were related to her were two of the imperial family's younger generation. Could it be that because of that, she would have to submit herself and sacrifice herself for their so-called peace and harmony?

She had never taken the initiative to provoke them, so why did she have to shoulder all of the curses, curses, and injustices in the end?!

Why? What right did these people have to point fingers at their own affairs! Why did even Mistress had to blame him!? The more she thought about it, the more she felt uncomfortable. Just like that, she walked all the way to the backyard.

In the backyard, beside a stone table, Mu Juyun looked at the two youngsters. He stroked his beard and laughed, Those three girls are greedy. If we were to place this peach blossom wine in her hands, she definitely wouldn't get married.

My old man is also old, I don't know which day he will give up. This thing isn't good to leave with me, I wonder if any of you two are willing to help me preserve it?

CHAPTER 204 - LET'S NOT LOVE HIM OKAY?

Dong Ling Wan's heart skipped a beat when she heard those words. She knew that this matter was related, but she didn't expect that her teacher would make it so obvious. Everyone understood that the girl's Peach Blossom Wine was brought to her husband's house. If someone took away the Peach Blossom Wine …

DongLing Wan was a little angry. How could she be someone as good as those people described?! He didn't even bother to ask! He spoke as if no one wanted it!

The two of them understood the meaning of Mu Juyun's words and were stunned at the same time. In almost an instant, Xiao Qian's vigilant gaze shifted to Patrol of the Xiao family.

Xiao Qian only saw a faint smile on the corner of Xiao Xun's mouth, but didn't immediately reply to Mu Yanyun's words. Instead, he gave Xiao Qian a meaningful look. This was the first time that Xiao Qian had felt Xiao Xun's sense of danger. It felt as if a blade was stabbing into his heart, causing him to feel pain and fear.

After a long time, Xiao Yan still did not move or speak. He did not have the slightest intention of touching the wine jar on the table. He even gave Xiao Yan a meaningful look, indicating that he could take it.

Ignoring the effect Xiao Xun had on him, Xiao Qian did not move.

Xiao Xun coldly smirked. Look, Wan, this is the man you're interested in. He always says he loves you, and no matter what, he will barge into your life. When he's done, he will turn around decisively, not caring about how you feel at all.

Wan, give up! No matter what difficulties he had, such a man wasn't worth it!

I will take good care of Wan. Don't worry, cousin. Xiao Xun extended his hand towards the wine jar.

Behind the door, Eastern Ling Wan stared at the jar of wine, her eyebrows knitted together, and she even forgot to breathe. Her hand was pressed against the door, her fingers clamped to the doorframe, her nails bent.

Xiao Xun's hands moved very slowly. The smile on his face didn't decrease in the slightest. Xiao Qian looked at the person in front of him and clenched his fists tightly. His mouth was filled with a fishy taste. That was his blood.

Xiao Qian's hand moved as if he wanted to stop her, and Dong Ling Wan's heart rose to a higher pitch as a result of this action. However, he didn't raise his hand. The pain on his tongue reminded him of what he should and shouldn't do.

Dong Ling Wan's hand couldn't help but press tightly against the door frame. Xiao Qian, this bastard, if you dare …

Seeing that Xiao Xun's hand was getting closer and closer, Xiao Qian's nails dug into his flesh. He could not suppress the anger in his heart and wanted to rush forward and viciously beat up this bastard who stole away Wan. However, the last bit of reason he had left told him that he couldn't.

Eastern Ling Wan couldn't see Xiao Qian's expression clearly, but she was extremely angry at his actions, which he didn't care about in the slightest. Finally, just as Xiao Xun's hand was about to touch the wine jar, a sound came from the door, and Dong Ling Wan kicked it open.

Ignoring their shocked expressions, Dong Ling Wan walked to the side of the table, opened the seal, and poured the wine jar over Xiao Qian's head.

The dripping juice rolled down from his head all the way to his head, soaking his clothes and making him appear abnormally miserable. Dong Ling Wan bit her lip as she looked at the person before her and yelled, Xiao Qian, you're a bastard!

After saying that, Eastern Ling Wan ran off without looking back.

Wan! Xiao Qian reached out to grab her, but his hand stopped mid-air.

Xiao Qian, I really don't know what you're thinking! Remember to never appear in front of her again! She, I will be enough to protect her! " After Xiao Xun finished his sentence, he immediately chased after her. Even though they were quite far away, Xiao Qian could still hear him calling her name.

Wan, Wan …

Mister, am I wrong? Xiao Qian didn't care about his current sorry state. He stood there dispiritedly, staring at the empty wine jar in a daze.

Let go, how could he bear it?

It was just that A Wan was always unhappy when she was with him, and it always brought her a lot of disasters and arguments. He no longer wanted to implicate her, nor did he want to maintain the beautiful situation they were in, which would only make them suffer.

This was for the good of two people. Could it be that he had really done something wrong?

There is no right or wrong in matters of the heart. Even if I can teach you millions of skills, there are some things that I can't teach you at all. After Mu Juyun finished speaking, she did not stay any longer and turned around to walk out the door. Before you leave, change your clothes. Do not catch a cold.

Wan! Xiao Xun quickly caught up to Dong Ling Wan. Seeing that she was still ignoring him and just running forward, Xiao Xun became annoyed. He grabbed her hand and pulled her into his embrace, Enough!

Xiao Xun used a lot of his strength. Dong Ling Wan bumped into him and said painfully, Don't mind me!

She still didn't know how to face him!

I don't want to care about you, but who told me not to! Xiao Xun grabbed her arm and yelled.

It was the first time in his life he had yelled at her so, so hurt, so desperate. When Eastern Ling Wan saw the unfamiliar and heart-wrenching him, she suddenly burst into tears. Ah Xun, I've let you down.

[If I don't care about it now, I wouldn't have cared about him at all. It was because he was too selfish, always hurting him again and again, hurting the person who loved him the most in this world.

However, why was the person in his heart not him? If the person he loved was him, how great would that be? In this world, fortune truly made a fool of people. Why did they have to miss it? Fate really was too much of a tease.

Every time she thought about it, her heart would ache.

Heh … Hahaha! Xiao Xun's throat let out a few syllables that were so broken it made everyone's heart ache. Wan, you were outside as well. You saw it. I gave him a chance, didn't I?

How could a person like that be worthy of entrusting his entire life to? How could I be at ease and hand you over to him? Xiao Xun suddenly pulled her tightly into his embrace as he tightened his grip, wanting to break her waist. Wan, I can't bear for you to be wronged.

Xiao Xun's voice suddenly became weak, and he even pleaded, Wan, listen to me, we don't need to love him anymore, okay?

Xiao Qian, who was not far away, suddenly felt a chill in his heart when he heard these words. His body froze on the spot as if he had been frozen solid.

What would she say? Will you promise him? After a while, Xiao Qian had thousands of questions in his mind, as well as thousands of fears. Actually, she didn't love him that much. Xiao Qian always knew that.

Xiao Qian no longer had the courage to listen to the answer, but the current him didn't even have the strength to walk away.

His fingers were shaking uncontrollably. Although he had imagined all kinds of situations, if he really heard her give up, he was no longer prepared to love her … He could not imagine what it would be like. He could not bear it.

CHAPTER 205 - FERTILE WATER DOES NOT FLOW TO FOREIGN LANDS

We … Dong Ling Wan tried her best to act natural as she withdrew from his embrace, a bit awkwardly arranging her hair. It's getting late when we come out, so we shouldn't stay out any longer. Let's go back and bid farewell to Teacher as soon as possible!

Hearing that she had changed the topic, Xiao Qian's heart was filled with joy. He immediately put down his suspense. She had her own heart!

Idiot! Xiao Xun looked at her with a peculiar expression in his eyes. His expression and tone were fierce, but they were constantly pounding his heart. It was so sad that it was hard to control himself.

Xiao Xun cursed, but in the end, he couldn't bear to do anything to her. He flung his sleeves and walked on. After walking a few steps, he discovered that Dong Ling Wan had fallen far behind. He couldn't help but glare at her, and when he returned, he reached out his hand to grab her wrist. Still not leaving!

Oh, I know... Got it." Dong Ling Wan knew that she was in the wrong, and that she must have hurt him. Dong Ling Wan didn't dare to retort as she followed behind Xiao Xun with a pitiful look on her face.

Xiao Qian watched as the two walked away. Under the twilight, their silhouettes were so beautiful that it would make people feel that disturbing them would be an unforgivable sin.

In that instant, Xiao Qian experienced the taste of jealousy.

After returning home, Dong Ling Wan lay on her bed, but couldn't fall asleep. She thought about Xiao Qian's reaction during the day and felt depressed. Could it be that he didn't care about her marrying someone else at all?

As for Ah Xun … Dong Ling Wan felt dejected. In the end, she had let him down. However, after seeing Xiao Xun reach for the wine jar, she suddenly came to a realization. After that, she had made it clear that friendship and love could never be confused.

Xiao Jianfeng, Xiao Jianfeng, I am feeling extremely upset right now. Is it as you say? Dong Ling Wan felt discontent in her heart. A man like him has a grudge with a girl, and he's even stingy!

West suburbs, bamboo forest, climbing clouds and small buildings.

After the three of them had left, Madam Shang Lu walked out of the room. She looked at the three figures entangled in the conflict and sighed, What a sin!

Madam Shang Lu finally understood why they kept saying that Dong Ling Wan and Xiao Qian weren't suitable. In fact, it wasn't just with Xiao Qian, but with Xiao Xun as well.

Xiao Qian and Dong Ling Wan were both too stubborn, but they weren't children. Most of the time, they chose to be patient with each other.

They would try their best to satisfy each other's desires, but they would never know how to communicate with each other's hearts. They would never know what the other was thinking, nor would they ask each other, but they would try their best to satisfy each other's desires, but they would never know how to communicate with each other.

It seemed that there would be less problems between Xiao Xun and Dong Ling Wan. However, due to Xiao Bu Dian's concern for Dong Ling Wan, his entire heart was focused on Dong Ling Wan, and he couldn't bear to see her suffer any grievances.

Maybe it wasn't a burden for him to spoil someone so much, but if he was too indulgent, it would spoil a person's temper. Although this saying is not very appropriate here, but, motherly many failed children, the foster son is this reason, to treat the matter of feelings, as well as.

With regards to Dong Ling Wan's current temperament, even if Dong Ling Wan wanted to overturn the sky with him, Xiao Xun would not be able to stop her.

Dong Ling Wan wasn't very beautiful, and there were many intelligent and gentle women in this world. She wasn't very outstanding, but this kind of thing happened to fall on her head.

If this happened to an ordinary family or family, it wouldn't be a matter of utmost importance. However, if the two people associated with her were from the Imperial Family, and they were two people who held great power, then this matter would definitely not be simple!

Those two were both love type. One was infatuated with the other, and naturally, there was no need to explain her feelings towards Eastern Ling Wan. If he had discovered some things earlier, it would have been good for him, at least it would have prevented them from doing so. However, it seemed that it was already too late. Since ancient times, there had never been a lack of trouble caused by beauties …

Presumably, Zi Xiao and Ah Zang didn't think well of the two of them, because of this.

Mu Juanyun shook his head. Let nature take its course. The current situation is not one that we can control.

Xiao Qian didn't know what to do as he stood there. Just what was the purpose of the wine she poured down her head? In fact, was she angry because she didn't want to fight in front of Xiao Xun? I'm still very important to her, right?

But so what? She and Xiao Xun were childhood sweethearts, and they knew each other's eating habits like the back of their hands. With just a movement and a glance, they could guess what the other party wanted to do … Such a tacit understanding was something that he and she did not have.

Xiao Qian's heart was a bit sour. Although he was unwilling, he had to admit that she and Xiao Xun stood together like a pair of mummies. Even he couldn't help but be dazzled by this scene. Xiao Qian was not willing to give up, but he felt that he no longer had the confidence and endurance to chase after it.

The problem between him and Wan did not arise overnight, but rather, it had accumulated over a long period of time. There were too many problems between the two of them, so many that they could not be solved.

Unknowingly, Xiao Qian had already walked up to the front of the small building. Mu Juyun looked at this disappointed person and asked, What's wrong? How do you feel?

Sir, I can't let it go. However, he didn't dare to give chase either.

Then I might as well not be annoyed at what I see! Mu Juyun cursed silently behind his back, A log!

He thought that saying so much about the two of them would arouse Xiao Qian's fighting spirit, but he didn't expect his fourth disciple to be so obedient. He really didn't want to waste time talking to the third girl again.

Seeing that his previous actions hadn't affected Xiao Qian, Mu Yunji made another plan. This was the reason for the Peach Blossom Wine incident today. He didn't expect Xiao Qian to be so calm. He didn't know what was wrong with him. It was obvious that he didn't care much about the third girl, but he didn't want to be involved with her.

Thinking about Xiao Qian's performance two times, Mu Yunji felt a burst of anger. This brat was too disappointing. He had already dug a corner and his own teacher, yet he was still so calm and collected. He didn't have any plans to fight!

As the saying goes, a rich water doesn't flow into a foreign land, let alone a treasure like the third girl. In his heart, Mu Juyun felt that her third daughter should have just left it for her fourth son.

They all said that they got the moon first when they got close to the brothel, and so many things had happened before that. Now that they were here, the young lady from their sect was coaxed away by an outsider! He, Xiao Qian, was not ashamed. He was an old man with nothing to lose!

CHAPTER 206 - SOMEONE ELSE IS EXPLORING THE ROOM AT NIGHT

Xiao Gan didn't say anything to Mu Juyun's deliberate provocation. He only gave a faint En before bowing to Mu Juyun and leaving.

Behind him, Mu Juyun looked at Xiao Qian's desperate state and threw the teacup on the table, This brat, it's only right for your own girl to snatch it away!

At night, Dong Ling Wan took a bath in the hot spring pool, then sat by the window and tidied up her somewhat wet hair. Suddenly, she heard the sound of a door opening, and subconsciously, she called out, Big sister Xiuxue.

Miss? XunYou frowned and asked in puzzlement, Miss, what orders do you have?

Dong Ling Wan's body stiffened for a moment, then she waved her hand: Nothing, come and help me wring my hair dry.

Yes. A hint of doubt flashed through XunYou's eyes, but he didn't express it. He bowed and took the towel from Eastern Lingwan's hands, wiping her hands bit by bit.

Enjoy the snow? It sounded like a woman's name, probably the same woman who had served Eastern Ling Wan in the past. This was because the girls Wu Zetian had with him were all named after the Nine Ya, and they were the last to visit her, as they admired the snow, listened to the rain, caressed the zither, dill flowers, sipped the tea, sipped the wine, waited for the moon,
