“Male” Became a Group Favorite with Her - Chapter 31
Ao Jingyi wandered around in the tropical jungle, and finally came to a relatively open area and saw a small stream.
And luckily there was someone by the stream who might be able to point him in the direction.
He walked quickly towards the figure by the stream.
When he got closer, he found that this was a slender girl with a slender back and casual clothes, playing with her feet in the stream. He couldn’t help but wonder, in Vientiane Garden, can the service staff be so leisurely?
I feel a little unruly. Maybe I can remind Ah Ran to step up the training of the inner house staff.
He thought so, and finally came to the edge of the plant jungle.
He pushed aside the wide leaves that the vegetation blocked in front of his eyes, and his pupils could not help shrinking.
Because of the gaps in the branches and leaves, he couldn’t see it clearly until now. The short hair of the girl by the stream is exactly the same as Yu Qiuran.
He stopped abruptly, looked at the stone on which the girl was sitting with her hands back, and looked up at the sky in a lazy and relaxed posture.
A Ran also likes to sit like this.
Peel off both ends.
A dye and eggshell peeling is also such a unique step.
He couldn’t bear it any longer, and asked aloud in his chaotic thoughts: “Excuse me…”
Yu Qiuran heard his voice.
She didn’t bother to analyze why Ao Jingyi suddenly appeared here. Just drinking water and pressing down on her egg choked her, while urging the system to quickly activate “Face-Changing” for her.
Long, hair covering her face like a curtain.
Then she saw Ao Jingyi jump and take off with a sound of “Ow—”, retreating at the speed of light and disappearing into the jungle.
Oops, every time I see him being frightened, I feel so cute.
Yu Qiuran turned back and took a picture of the clear stream. She herself doesn’t know what the effect of this card is.
In the end, when she saw the face reflected on the surface of the water, she jumped on the spot with a “biu” and flew into the air, throwing the egg “biaji” in her hand.
She roared to the system in her heart: [What kind of underworld thing is this you gave me! 】
Wet long hair is a must for female ghosts, she has no problem with that. He had black pupils that took up half of his face, no whites of the eyes, and blue, green, and cold complexion.
The key is…
【What about the rest of my facial features! 】Yu Qiuran expresses Li’s anger, 【Why do I still want to eat! My mouth is gone, do you want me to eat with my eyes! 】
The system is wronged: [The female ghost is originally a product of the underworld. And the look is drawn at random, and I can’t interfere. 】
Yu Qiuran looked at the delicious breakfast next to her: [Then please solve it for me, Ao Jingyi has been scared away. 】
System: [Sorry host, I do not have such permission. Your appearance will automatically deactivate after three hours. 】
Destroy it. The system is a piece of shit.
The tired Yu Qiuran leaned back, lay down on the big rock by the stream and closed his eyes.
Out of sight, out of mind, as long as she doesn’t see, she won’t feel hungry.
It happens that the nose is gone and can’t smell the fragrance, this is her only consolation!
But when she was frantically complaining about the system, she heard Ao Jingyi’s voice again: “You—what did you do to Aran?”
After Ao Jingyi flew out for a long distance, seeing that the female ghost was not catching up, he stopped, leaning on his knees and gasping for breath.
He felt strange just now, with the strict standards of the family for selecting service personnel, how could there be servants who lead the way to take guests away, and dress casually and lazily beside the stream behind the host’s back occur.
Now it seems, it’s mostly because he hit a ghost.
The Vientiane Garden covers an extremely large area, with all kinds of gardens nested layer by layer, different mountains and rivers and many magnificent buildings, which are not easy to manage. Original…
Wait! Ao Jingyi stood up straight.
A Ran!
Although he hit a ghost later, there was no problem with the servant bringing him to the Tropical Botanical Garden at first, which proved that Ah Ran was indeed here.
But now it’s quiet here, and he never saw the second person again.
Where did Ah Ran go?
He remembered that when he first saw the back of the female ghost, he thought she looked like the female version of Yu Qiuran. It was after he called the other party that the female ghost suddenly showed the prototype.
He remembered that some ghost stories mentioned that if a ghost eats a person, it can steal his appearance.
Ah Ran will not be harmed by ghosts. Ao Jingyi looked at the direction he was running from. Although the early morning sun had begun to slowly become brighter, it was still dark in the deep jungle.
He subconsciously took a half step back. But he quickly adjusted himself, took a deep breath, and set off again with a determined look.
The sun is getting higher and higher, and he doesn’t know how long the female ghost will stay. Before the other party disappears, he must try to save Ah Ran!
Why is he back.
Yu Qiuran heard Ao Jingyi’s voice again, and slowly got up from the big stone and looked over.
stiff.
This time he left school without his badge, otherwise the chance of winning against the female ghost would be better. There is a small laser transmitter improved by Arang on the badge. Although it can only be used in emergency and short distances, it has good lethality.
Ao Jingyi forcibly resisted the desire to step back, clenched the stone in his hand, and repeated: “Where’s Ah Ran?”
Yu Qiuran saw Ao Jingyi standing far away, covering himself with a tree trunk, her expression stiff and vigilant. It is like a brave dog who, in the face of a major threat, but in order to protect something, still endures the fear and refuses to escape, and snarls with its ears on its back.
Is it because I was worried about her, so even if I was afraid of ghosts, I still turned back?
The moved Yu Qiuran said with a smile: “Are you looking for the young master? He’s not here.”
Because she didn’t have a mouth, her voice sounded like it came from the abdominal cavity, thick and low.
At least you don’t have to worry about revealing your identity because the voice is familiar, Yu Qiuran tried to find the advantages of this female ghost’s appearance in his heart to comfort himself.
But from Ao Jingyi’s point of view, the other party first had a strange twist of facial muscles, because the appearance was so terrifying, he couldn’t even be sure whether the other party was… laughing?
Then the “female ghost” answered him in a good voice. Although the timbre was different, the tone of the voice was very familiar, exactly the same as Yu Qiuran.
He continued to ask: “Are you a human or a ghost?”
Looking at his black pupils, looking at him uneasily, Yu Qiuran couldn’t bear to frighten him too much, so he said the truth: “I’m a human being.”
Ao Jingyi stood behind the tree and fell into deep thought when he saw the shadow cast by the sun on the ground.
He suddenly began to wonder if the “people” in front of him had put on special makeup to trick him. But looking at the slender figure of the “female ghost”, there is no doubt that she is indeed a woman.
He directly asked, “Aran, is that you?”
Yu Qiuran jumped in her heart. Fortunately, the appearance of the female ghost perfectly concealed her mood swings. She replied slowly: “Who are you? Why can’t you tell the difference between men and women, and you still think of me as a young master.”
Ao Jingyi showed a suspicious look: “You still don’t admit it! The tone of your speech, your daily actions and habits have been exposed.”
Yu Qiuran thought quickly, and immediately gave the answer: “Because I am the fiancee appointed by the young master since childhood, we grew up together, and it is normal for the couples who have been together for many years to resemble each other.”
The stone in Ao Jingyi’s hand fell. He had a bursting expression on his face: “What did you say! Whose fiancee are you?”
Yu Qiuran tried her best to hold back her smile: “It’s Master Yu Qiuran’s fiancee.”
Ao Jingyi couldn’t even care about his fear, he rushed out from behind the tree: “This is impossible!”
Yu Qiuran saw that his eyes were dull and chaotic, and began to use his eyes-opening skills to make up stories.
“You see me looking terrifying now, but it’s because I just cast a spell to save the young master.”
“I am the 233rd generation of Xuanzhenguan. Do you know Xuanzhenguan?” Yu Qiuran motioned Ao Jingyi to look west.
Ao Jingyi couldn’t help but interject: “What does this have to do with you being Ah Ran’s fiancee?”
Yu Qiuran picked up the hair that fell into the water and hugged it: “Of course it has something to do with it. The young master’s fate is not good, many disasters and disasters are still doomed to early death. And I am not only in the mysterious door People, you still have to bring your own evil spirits.”
“So we decided to kiss the baby since we were young, so that I can help him bear the big doom and keep him safe.”
Ao Jingyi questioned: “Then you are okay? You have become like this.”
Yu Qiuran replied incomprehensibly: “This is also a kind of Xuanmen cultivation, you people of the world don’t understand. And it’s only a short period of ugliness, and then it will return to normal appearance.”
Because she was afraid that Ao Jingyi would immediately go out to find her to verify, and she obviously couldn’t see anyone with this honor. Yu Qiuran patched himself again: “Young master is now in Xuanzhenguan’s formation, and it is estimated that it will take three hours to finish.”
Ao Jingyi pointed out the loophole sharply: “He is in the view, so why are you here? And the servant also brought me here.”
Yu Qiuran saw the tricks: “This is the best place to cast spells in the mountains, rivers and forests calculated by gossip. It can help those who respond to disasters to quickly accumulate spiritual power. The servant brought you here because I temporarily assumed the young master’s fate, and I have confused Tiandao and the world.”
Ao Jingyi watched the “female ghost” and paced around her far away.
The other party’s remarks sound outrageous at first, but it seems reasonable when you think about it?
He remembered that Yu Qiuran had been in constant turmoil since he entered the school, plagued by minor disasters and minor illnesses. And when we first met, Yu Qiuran did say that he had suffered a big accident, and his health has deteriorated a lot since then.
That should be the catastrophe that the lady in front of Xuanmen said.
After reading this, he stopped and said hesitantly, “Although I may not have the qualifications, I still want to say, thank you for helping Ah Ran.”
Yu Qiuran, who sat on the stone very calmly and let him watch, saw that he really believed, and almost laughed in his heart.
She coughed: “Don’t thank me, this is what I should do. It’s just that the fact of preventing disasters is a mystery. If you bump into it, don’t mention it to others when you go out.”
Ao Jingyi thought that Yu Qiuran had cut off contact with the outside world these days, and understood it.
Yu Qiuran looked at him seriously and couldn’t help laughing until her stomach hurt. She asked again, “Do you have anything to do with the young master? Maybe I can convey it for you.”
Ao Jingyi listened to the other party’s slightly smiling tone.
A Ran must be very close to this fiancée in private, so Miss Xuanmen is very similar to him from habits to tone.
He quietly felt the sudden loss in his heart, and replied: “It’s nothing, I just want to find him back to the academy. Since he has something to do, I won’t bother.”
Yu Qiuran watched his dejected back disappear into the jungle with some confusion. Then she blinked, fell on the rock and laughed wildly.
【My God, why is A Yi so easy to deceive in some aspects, he actually believed it. 】
System:…
There is a host that is too naughty, and sometimes it is a headache. She was always worried that she would run the train with her mouth full and turn back to herself.
Ao Jingyi did not recover from this “wonderful encounter” until he arrived at the East Palace Garden.
He worked through the day in a daze. After returning to the bedroom at night and sitting behind the table, I calmed down and decided to rearrange my thoughts.
However, a phone call spoiled his spirits.
It was Ms. Ling.
As soon as he connected, he heard the other party notify him directly: “I’ve found the opening dance partner of the Midsummer Night Ball for you. It’s Yu Yuan. She will find you later.”
This incident is even more bizarre than his “hit a ghost” in the morning. Ao Jingyi reacted for a moment and asked, “What did you say?”
Ms. Ling said toughly: “Don’t make me repeat it again. I know you don’t like Yu Yuan, but she has been in the academy for ten years longer than Yu Qiuran. She used to be on the board of directors. It has a head and a face in front of it.”
“She graduated a year earlier and entered the university, so she can take the lead over Yu Qiuran…”
Ao Jingyi interrupted the other party with a cold tone: “You have met with her in the past ten years, and you should know what kind of person she is. Are you not guilty when you say this?”
Ms. Ling paused: “She is the adopted daughter of the head of the Yu family for many years. Many times, we only need a name to act in front of the outside world. It’s not better to be a fool with no reputation. Control? We support her, and we can grab more benefits from it.”
Ao Jingyi was furious: “Who are you insulting!”
The Midsummer Night Ball is a major social event held every year for graduation.
Because it is customary for children of aristocratic families to get engaged at the age of 18, for the graduates who are just stuck at this stage, this is a ball with the meaning of blind date.
So their opening and closing dance partners have specific meaning.
If the two parties have already reached a consensus in private, they will appear directly at the opening dance. Or if they are not sure, they will test each other at the dance, and finally express their attitude at the final dance.
Generally speaking, if these two dances are dance partners who skip together, it is basically a sure-fire engagement partner.
Ms. Ling was very dissatisfied: “You feel humiliated just by dancing? In the future, you will inherit the family business and face outsiders, and there will be many unsatisfactory things.”
She said unquestionably: “A smoke bomb just sweetened her. It’s just the opening dance, and there is no final dance, it’s nothing. And you’re not a graduate, everyone is at most guessing. “
Ao Jingyi is still a sophomore in high school, he really doesn’t have to follow such unspoken rules.
Ke Yuyuan is a real graduate. Moreover, the members of the East Mang Club have always been special, and their every move will be over-interpreted.
Ao Jingyi can’t stand his name tied to Yu Yuan.
He coldly refused: “This is impossible, don’t even think about it.”
Ms. Ling was furious: “Your wings are hard, aren’t you! If you don’t dance with Yu Yuan, I can guarantee that you won’t find any dance partner for the whole dance.”
At the beginning and end of such a large-scale dance, the members of the East Mang Club must lead the dance.
In previous years, most of their dance partners were cousins in the family or relatives, or daughters of long-term partners who had recently worked closely with the family.
In a sense, Ms. Ling can indeed release news, so as to contain the dance partners he can find from the source. It is very rude and shameless to have such an important dance without a partner.
Ao Jingyi’s tone was light: “Let’s do it with you. Even if I don’t stop dancing, it won’t be more embarrassing than having a relationship with Yu Yuan.”
Ms. Ling has calmed down again.
She sneered: “Okay, since you don’t want to socialize well, Xiaomei will have to take responsibility for her brother. Recently, the little son of President Fan’s family is going to hold a birthday party, and then he will be there. There are many children of the same age. It’s time for Xiaomei to meet the world.”
However, to her surprise, Ao Jingyi was not as easily provoked by her this time.
He even listened to her calmly for a while and arranged many social activities for Xiaomei. Until she stopped thinking of words, he said indifferently: “Of course you can continue to use this trick against me.”
“But if Xiaomei’s autism condition is aggravated by being forced to go out, I believe her uncle will also be very heartbroken and willing to empathize with her.”
Ms. Ling took a breath.
Ao Jingyi’s voice was very cold: “Perhaps you don’t know, Mr. Ao has already handed over the cooperation project between the Ao family and the Ling family. It’s a lot of fun. If I turn my face, it’s easy to slander him.”
Ms. Ling’s voice suddenly became sharp: “You are crazy! That’s your uncle! He loved you so much since childhood!”
Ao Jingyi curled up his fingers on the arm of the chair, but his voice was still calm: “Isn’t Xiaomei your daughter? She loves you so much, how are you right? her?”
Ms. Ling was at a loss for words.
Ao Jingyi said resolutely: “I will never dance with Yu Yuan, I want to stop all my dance partners and choose whatever you want. But if you use Xiaomei as a raft, I will definitely retaliate. .”
His tone was indifferent: “You’d better not bet on whether I will be soft-hearted. I really don’t want to deal with my uncle, but I believe you are very clear about the character of what I say and do.”
Ms. Ling heard some heavy breathing. Then she didn’t say a word and hung up abruptly.
Ao Jingyi lowered his eyes tiredly as he listened to the sound of “du-du-” in the microphone.
Uncle Ling is the head of this generation of Ling family. Unlike his sister, Ms. Ling, he is a kind and easy-going person who loves children very much.
But although he is a kind and good person, he is not a qualified family leader. Because he is soft-hearted and easy to trust others, the Ling family made some big somersaults, and his status in the aristocratic family circle went from bad to worse.
Uncle Ling took it easy, but Ms. Ling couldn’t bear it. She tried her best to promote the cooperation project between the Ling family and the Ao family, and hoped that the Ling family would be able to turn around with this cooperation, which would make her proud.
So threatening Ms. Ling with this is very effective. Although she refused to admit it, the silence had obviously softened.
Ao Jingyi looked at the dark night outside the window and remembered his uncle’s chubby face and kind smile.
The only time he went to the amusement park when he was a child was when his uncle took him there. He rode on Uncle Ling’s neck and watched the unfamiliar fairy tale characters dancing and happily walking through the crowd.
The excitement and joy at that time, as well as the warm big hand that his uncle supported him, he still clearly remembers.
Ao Jingyi closed his eyes, grabbed the phone on the table and threw it out.
He eventually became the type of person he hated the most.
The phone slammed heavily on the window glass, making a loud noise, which alarmed the housekeeper next door.
The housekeeper knocked on the door and asked.
Ao Jingyi looked at the cobweb-like cracks on the window reflecting his torn face, and said softly, “Come in.”
After the housekeeper came in, he quickly understood the situation: “Master, you go to the study and sit for a while. I will arrange for you to change the window.”
Ao Jingyi got up, but did not go out immediately. He stood by the window with his chest folded, his back to the housekeeper: “You did a good job this time.”
Because the housekeeper has been helping him cover up his itinerary, most of what Ms. Ling got there was fake news. Only then could he successfully take over the project from Mr. Ao and suppress Ms. Ling today by surprise.
The housekeeper bowed respectfully: “It is an honor to serve the young master.”
The young and capable heir is no longer satisfied with the shackles of the previous generation, showing his fangs and starting to grab power, the people below will naturally have to choose and choose.
Thinking like this, the housekeeper asked again: “Master, there is one more thing I need to ask you for. The gentleman sent a message just now, asking me about your situation at Yu’s house today.”
Ao Jingyi stared at the treetops swaying in the wind outside the window: “Report to him with a vague focus. Just say that I found that A Ran was ill to cultivate at home. The Yu family did not want to be caused by the illness of the heir. People were in turmoil, and the news was blocked.”
The housekeeper solemnly responded.
Because of the appearance of that pitiful female ghost in the morning, Yu Qiuran hid behind her back in the tropical jungle, wasting three hours of time.
So she put the finishing touches on organizing the assets until the evening.
It was late at night when her motorcade arrived at the gate of the East Palace Garden.
After a busy day, she motioned to the maids and sisters to go back to the villa area, and she wanted to take a walk in the quiet garden to breathe.
As she walked, she suddenly heard a melodious music, gently blowing over the flowers with the wind.
She followed the sound, and finally saw Ao Jingyi sitting in the glass greenhouse, playing the cello with his head down.
The cold moonlight refracted and shone on the glass roof of the conservatory, casting a star-shaped light into his heavy shadow.
Ao Jingyi played “Dawn Sonata”.
Yu Qiuran stopped and listened for a moment.
In the deep night, those who are eagerly looking forward to the dawn, use the low and soft tone of the cello to inject a sad color into the original lively and happy tune.
Yu Qiuran looked at his lonely figure hidden in the shadow of the moonlight. The morning was fine, but the bright light on the other party disappeared again after one day of absence.
She stood at the end of the path: [System, give me a trumpet. 】
The system that has been dissed by her overtly and secretly for a day quickly seized the opportunity to make up for it.
Yu Qiuran looked at the trumpet that appeared out of thin air in his hand, played a few times to try the timbre, nodded with satisfaction, and then joined the performance.
The clear trumpet is integrated into the sonata, and the originally slow tune immediately becomes vibrant.
Ao Jingyi was startled. He raised his head and saw “Dawn” with a brilliant golden smile, walking through the mist at night and the sea of sleeping flowers, conveying bright and brilliant music, and came to him.
He could not help but adjust the rhythm with the other party.
The two played this piece together, from the morning light to the rebirth of all things, to the red sun gushing out from the sky, to the surging waves suddenly shot by the sea tide…
Dawn is coming, it is so warm and alive, it is fascinating.
After playing the last rolling sound wave, the song gradually slowed down until it disappeared.
The two stopped and smiled at each other.
Yu Qiuran was the first to ask: “Did Ah Yi major in cello? I thought that with your personality, you would choose a more assertive instrument.”
Ao Jingyi, who was in a relaxed mood, asked: “Is it like your trumpet?”
Children of aristocratic families need to be exposed to many musical instruments, but there will be one major, to be proficient and able to go out to support the scene.
We usually choose the king of instruments piano or the queen of instruments violin for easy performance. It was already relatively rare for him to choose a cello, but Yu Qiuran did not expect to choose a rare trumpet.
Yu Qiuran snorted: “Sorry, because the house is too empty and quiet, I like such bright and loud music, it is very exciting.”
She touched her chin and said regretfully, “Actually, the first thing I wanted to learn was suona, but I was strongly opposed to it, so I finally chose the trumpet.”
Ao Jingyi was amused by her in the first sentence, but in the second sentence, she thought that the person who stopped her from learning suona might be her very close fiancee.
He was a little stunned, and Yu Qiuran patted him on the shoulder with a consolation, and was startled by his sudden strong envy and jealousy.
This morning, Ao Jingyi went to the central area of the East Palace to join the other three. They’re going to audition the Academy Orchestra live in the auditorium today and watch their performance for the opening of the Midsummer Night Ball.
But instead of seeing Yu Qiuran and them, he met Yu Yuan who was in a hurry.
He stopped, looking bad.
By sending the student union documents, Yu Yuan, who was here waiting for Ao Jingyi to come to him, said eagerly: “His Royal Highness, I heard that you refused to be my dance partner. But I will do it for you. Bringing huge benefits in return…”
Last night, when she asked Ms. Ling about Ao Jingyi’s attitude again, Ms. Ling disdainfully informed her that the previous agreement was void.
Yu Yuan was very unwilling and wanted to persuade Ao Jingyi again.
Ao Jingyi looked indifferent: “I thought you should be very clear, I can’t support the scene for you.”
Yu Yuan, who was clearly rejected, turned pale. Ao Jingyi was an important part of her plan to turn around, but looking at the arrogance and impatience in the other person’s eyes, a burst of anger rose up in her heart uncontrollably.
She screamed: “Is it because of Yu Qiuran! How good do you think she is, she is a liar!”
She proclaimed somewhat maliciously: “She has a secret from everyone, in fact—”
A pebble brushed sharply across her face, smashing a hole in the tree trunk behind.
Zhan Shenlang slowly appeared in the forest. He looked at Yu Yuan expressionlessly: “Be careful.”
Yu Yuan, who was dazed by anger, covered her fire|spicy face and calmed down a little.
The secret of Yu Qiuran’s identity is her last trump card.
Because she knew that once she told this secret, she would completely offend Yu’s father, and there was no possibility of turning over.
She shouldn’t use this trump card until she is in a desperate situation.
Yu Yuan glanced at Ao Jingyi and Zhan Shenlang in shock, turned and left with a resentful expression without saying a word.
Hua Chengya also walked out from the other direction. He obviously saw the previous farce, frowned and asked, “What’s the matter, what secret is she going to tell Ah Ran?”
Zhan Shenlang was a little flustered and didn’t know how to explain his behavior just now.
Fortunately, Ao Jingyi’s attention and Hua Chengya’s attention were not on him.
Ao Jingyi rubbed his forehead, and sneered in Zhan Chenlang’s astonished eyes and Hua Chengya’s doubts: “She thought she got the handle of Ah Ran’s interests, in fact, Ah Ran’s I already know the secret.”
