Su Jingjing and Lu Zhizhou were sitting at the stone table under the stairs. When the Quan brothers came in, they knew something was wrong at first glance.
At this juncture, they should not follow along and join in the fun. Besides, Lu Zhizhou had not yet decided how to tell Wen Li about this matter.
"Want it?"
Lu Zhizhou glanced at the melon seeds in Su Jingjing's hand, with disgust on his face, but still reached out to take them.
"You said you are a girl, what's wrong with carrying melon seeds with you?"
"Don't eat it if you can." Su Jingjing snorted.
After eating it all, you are still picky. These rich young men really do one thing in front of you and another in the back.
"You suddenly disappeared from the imperial capital last time, and you were captured." Su Jingjing glanced at Lu Zhizhou, "So I just said that you should just be your young master, and you can inherit the title after your father a hundred years from now." What are you doing here anyway?"
In this world, there are people at the bottom who work hard to climb up, and there are also people at the top who want to experience the life of the people below.
But this Lu Zhizhou is never just a whim.
"You don't care." Lu Zhizhou smashed out the melon seed shells in his hand.
Su Jingjing gently flicked the melon seed shells off her clothes with her fingers, "You're not happy anymore."
Xi Moran, who walked out of Shen Qingyi's office, took in this scene. The man came over with a smile and put one hand on Su Jingjing's shoulder.
"Are you ready to go back?"
Su Jingjing was stunned for a moment, then pushed his hand away, "Why go back?"
Xi Moran possessed him and sat down on the stone bench between the two of them, separating them impartially.
"Won't you come back to the imperial capital with me? Qianqian has asked several times when you will return. Now that Wen Li is awake, the Western Plague is over, and it's almost time for you to leave."
Su Jingjing rolled her eyes, "When I walked out of the imperial capital, I never said goodbye to anyone."
Matters in the imperial capital should end with the Fu family.
When she followed Wen Li to the Imperial Capital, she wanted to find out the cause of the death of Wen Li's parents. Now that the Imperial Capital has no place to look back, what should she do back there.
Xi Moran chuckled and raised his eyebrows, taking off the glasses on the bridge of his nose with one hand. After spending so long together, he was used to this girl's temperament.
Whoever said that you can’t recognize someone when you lift your pants can only be a man. Women are much more ruthless than men.
This girl is like that.
"If you don't want to go back to the Imperial Capital, where do you want to go? I happen to be free during this time and can accompany you."
Su Jingjing snorted the melon seeds and said, "Mr. Xi, it's better to go back and take care of the Xi family. It's useless for you to follow me. Aren't we already irrelevant?"
Xi Moran smiled instead of being angry, clasped the back of her head with one hand and pulled her towards him, "Are you sure we are okay?"
Su Jingjing said without squinting, "What do you think?"
Lu Zhizhou watched the interaction between the two with interest. He knew Su Jingjing's personality well.
If Wen Li is quick and easy to pick up and put down, Su Jingjing's character is not much different.
It's just that Lu Zhizhou still finds it strange that a person who has always been free and easy has been entangled by the head of the Xi family in the past two days.
"I see they have come out. I'd better go see Wen Li." Lu Zhizhou said and grabbed Su Jingjing's hand, "You have to accompany me."
Xi Moran's eyes darkened behind his lenses, staring intently at the hand he held.
"Why should I go with you?" Su Jingjing retorted, "It's not like I have anything to ask Wen Li for."
He couldn't let Xia Chen accompany him there. It couldn't be like plucking wool, but it was better to cling to a sheep.
"It's the advice you gave me. I definitely want you to follow me and implement it." Lu Zhizhou said this with confidence.
"I understand, you feel guilty. If you take me there alone, there will be someone to share your guilt with you, right?" Su Jingjing snorted.
You can't find a shield like this.
"Now that you know, hurry up." Lu Zhizhou said, dragging people forward, "Even if we die today, we will die together."
Before he could take two steps, Lu Zhizhou was stopped by someone. The expressionless man in black in front of him was the bodyguard brought over by Xi Moran.
The latter took a step forward and snatched Su Jingjing out from under his hand, "Mr. Soya, it's better not to be so close to other people's women."
After Xi Moran dragged the person to his side, he said in an extremely polite manner, "Such words can easily cause misunderstanding."
Lu Zhizhou held his aching wrist. How could such a gentle man have so much strength
"Don't get me wrong. In my eyes, she is almost the same as a man. If you want to tell me who I want to misunderstand, I still prefer Li Yatou." Lu Zhizhou glanced at Su Jingjing.
Su Jingjing, who was suddenly dissed, rolled her eyes. She looked up and saw two people walking from behind Lu Zhizhou, her eyes lit up.
"Can you please stop dreaming? It's not like Wen Li has never rejected you. When you were single, you didn't have a chance. Now she is a serious married woman."
Lu Zhizhou raised his eyebrows and spoke in a rare and aggressive manner, "You have no name and no status. How can you be a married man? Let alone not married, you can get divorced even if you are married."
These days, there is freedom in marriage and love. Who says you have to live with one person for the rest of your life
These words were heard word by word in the ears of the people who came behind, and Fei Ran subconsciously glanced at the leader next to him.
There was no change between the two of them, they were as cold-faced as ever, unable to distinguish their emotions.
Mrs. You Qi has been ill for the past two days. Her face was already pale, and now she couldn't even show any emotion or anger.
Su Jingjing saw his confident look, with a successful smile on her lips.
"So, you still have confidence in yourself?"
Lu Zhizhou snorted as a response to them.
Su Jingjing struck while the iron was hot, "Okay, they're not married yet anyway, so I'll see what you can do to snatch Wen Li over."
Lu Zhizhou's temperament was not reserved and calm to begin with, but after being provoked like this, he naturally became provocative.
"Didn't someone say that there is no wall that cannot be knocked down, only mistresses who don't work hard."
Su Jingjing almost died without a mouthful of melon seed shells. She had never heard anyone describe herself like this,
"Even if you use the idioms randomly, the common sayings are also starting to become messy." Wen Li suddenly spoke.
Lu Zhizhou turned around and saw Wen Li looking helpless behind him and staring at the man with a half-smile but not a smile for who knows how long.
No wonder I felt a chill on my back just now. This was the reason why I had been doing it for a long time.
Su Jingjing's eyes lit up with a smile, now she was in for a good show.
Seeing her overjoyed look, Xi Moran knew clearly how vindictive this little fox was.
"How are you doing? Are you feeling better?" Lu Zhizhou changed his unruly demeanor and walked over seriously.
Before he could get close to Wen Li, he was blocked by someone.
"You're jumping up and down outside because you have trouble with me?" Wen Li sat down next to the stone bench.
Fu Yuxiu helped someone sit next to her, took the cup Feiran handed over and clinked it. "How does it taste?" Fu Yuxiu handed over the tea.
Wen Li glanced at the delicate pastry, tasted it, and then stared at the pastry on the plate that was made into a green petal pattern.
"Astragalus, jujube..."
This special medicinal smell can be tasted as soon as you taste it.
"This pastry will not be greasy. It is filled with herbs that nourish blood and qi. You need to take good care of yourself during this period." Fu Yuxiu explained to her.
Wen Li looked at the pastry after taking a bite, so this is why the pastry has a bitter taste.
"Be good." The man coaxed her while rubbing her head, "When your body recovers, the taste of this pastry will come back."
Lu Zhizhou looked at the delicate pastry in Wen Li's hand and reached over quietly, thinking of getting a piece to have a taste.
Before his hand reached the edge of the plate, someone moved it away.
The man's eyes that stared at him were dull, but he still saw an undercurrent surging under his eyes.
Stingy, can't even taste it.
"You want me to help you treat Yin Sa." Wen Li glanced at Lu Zhizhou.
The latter nodded, he did think so, but Yin Sa's leg fell off the horse and could not be cured after so many years.
Doctors from the K country, big and small, had gone to see him, but there was still nothing they could do, and he didn't expect Wen Li to cure his leg.
But at least let him see how he is doing physically.
"He has been in a wheelchair for seven years. In the past two years, his physical condition has suddenly declined sharply. I think you can show him what's going on."
Logically speaking, he shouldn't be in such a hurry, but Yin Sa's physical condition and status are even more special.
Any minor health problem needs to be carefully investigated by someone. If someone else is involved, you can't let anyone harm him.
"This is his blood test report. You can decide whether you want to take care of this matter after reading it."
The last time she went to Xizhen, she took a blood sample from that person and also paid attention to the hair tissue left behind for corresponding testing.
Seeing Lu Zhizhou's attitude, she more or less understood Yin Sa's identity.
It's just that Lu Zhizhou's father has never been involved in party disputes, and he has never been involved in politics when fighting for national power.
With such an identity, Yin Sa could easily get involved in the matter once he found something strange about his body.
Lu Zhizhou left K country because he didn't like that kind of life. Even if he is taken back now, he still doesn't have the right to choose not to be involved.
"This?" After Lu Zhizhou saw clearly what was in the report, he looked at Wen Li in surprise.
Various toxins.
What does this mean? Yin Sa's body has been invaded by these toxins for three years.
Xi Moran looked at him, stood up, pulled Su Jingjing and turned around to leave.
"What are you doing? The plot is about to get exciting." Su Jingjing struggled to free herself twice, but could not get her hands out.
"We haven't discussed things clearly yet, so don't worry so much about it." Xi Moran lost all patience, picked him up and walked away.
"He is the second heir. According to the inheritance laws of your K country, he can be the future king. If his body becomes like this, it means that he no longer has the right to inherit." Wen Li reminded.
He knew the situation in Country K very well. The old king only had one son in his name. If he lost the power to inherit, all the other branches would be ready to take action.
Although the king's descendants in K country are few, the collateral lines are flourishing. It is not easy to find the person who attacks Yin Sa at once.
"Are you sure you want to go through this troubled waters?"
Lu Zhizhou's father belonged to the same lineage as the old king, and he was also the old king's younger brother. If they were involved, it would be easy to involve them.
"I just want you to help him treat his illness." Lu Zhizhou murmured.
He didn't think too much, he simply felt that Yin Sa shouldn't end his life so quietly.
"I'll give you time to think. If you really need my help, I won't refuse you."
Wen Li looked at his lost look and said, Lu Zhizhou should be the most innocent man she has ever seen.
He was so innocent that anyone could deceive him. When they first met, Lu Zhizhou was able to give someone 50,000 yuan because of a little girl who had no money to treat her illness.
The little girl said to him sincerely, "Wait for me here, and I will definitely ask my uncle to send you money."
That fool really sat on the roadside and waited all day.
Every time I saw a beggar on the roadside, I would give out all the change I had. Day after day, it never changed.
Even if it's a big lie, if you look at him sincerely, he will believe you.
But Wen Li already knew his answer.
"I've decided, can you help me?"
Seeing his unusually determined look, Wen Li nodded, "I'll help you."
People like him are pure and simple and don't consider so many interests. Sometimes, it is a good thing for people to live a simpler life.
Lu Zhizhou stood up and said, "Then you have a good rest. I will pick you up in two days."
As he turned to leave, he grabbed a snack from the plate with quick eyes and hands. After taking a bite, he glanced provocatively at the man sitting over there.
Fu Yuxiu raised his eyebrows, "Where did you find such a single-celled organism?"
"Picked it up on the roadside." Wen Li replied.
The man raised his eyebrows and quickly squatted on the ground, grabbing Wen Li's hand and keeping his eyes level with hers.
"But he is right about one thing."
Wen Li had a bad feeling in his heart when he saw the man say those words seriously.
"If I don't take you home for a day, the evil-minded people outside will be watching at any time. It seems that they will seize the opportunity to turn you into Mrs. Fu."
After saying this, he leaned over and bit the corner of the girl's lips.
"We'd better put this on the agenda as soon as possible..."
When you like someone, your heart and eyes are filled with that person, and every smile, every move, can affect your nerves.
But when you love someone very much, everything about you will be filled up by this person. If others take a second look, they will feel that they are robbing you.
They never felt that anything could be changed if there was that book between them.
With or without that thing, her status in his heart would never change.
But having this thing is the greatest respect and cherishment for her
