Rebirth: Daughter of Marquis - C91 Joke
She seemed to be captivated by the man in front of her, so she didn’t know what to do with the expression.
But she only saw Tao Changan’s eyebrows furrow once again, she was panicking in her heart, and the look in her eyes was not as infatuated as before. At this moment, looking at the people in the hall, whether it was drinking or making merry, or admiring the flowers or composing poems, no one was looking in her direction, and even more so, no one was intoxicated by her zither music.
The song ended.
Xia Yuying’s heart became heavier, just now she spoke a few words incorrectly, and now that her hands were starting to itch, she could only hide her hands behind her back and lower her head slightly, about to speak. However, she suddenly heard Xia Weilan opening her mouth and said: “Sisters is really good, Big Sister is impressed.”
“Thank you, Big Sister, for your praise. I only wanted to make Old General happy.” Xia Yuying laughed dryly a few times, even though his laughter was extremely unnatural.
Xia Weilan’s eyes were filled with doubt as she said, “Just now, Sisters’s melody seemed to have a kind of mournful sadness. I wonder if Sisters …”
Sad, how could this word be used for birthday banquets, especially for old General who was over seventy years old?
Xia Yuying’s face stiffened. She could only kneel down and say, “Yu Ying only wants Old General to be happy, so she did not curse Old General.”
The crowd burst into an uproar when they heard this.
“Stupid woman.” A trace of disdain quickly flashed across Nalan Xueer’s eyes. She then picked up the teacup on the Table and gently sipped the tea.
“Since it’s an impromptu action, is that what you’re thinking?” Xia Weilan once again asked with doubt and confusion.
Xia Yuying’s face darkened, and her hands constantly felt itchy. She almost couldn’t hold it in, she really wanted to touch it, but she had to endure.
“Sisters doesn’t mean that …” Her words were slurred, because the itchy feeling in her hands made it hard for her to think about how to reply.
“Is this how Hou Mansion discipline his concubines?” Even though he looked old on the outside, but because he was once from the General, he still had that kind of imposing aura. With just one word, he gave off an inexplicable sense of oppression.
Xia Zhengyan thought that it was bad, just as he was about to come out to rectify his situation, he saw Xia Weilan standing up and walking towards Qin Huai’s side.
“Grandfather, don’t be angry, it wouldn’t be worth it if it hurt the body because of this.” As Xia Weilan said this, she straightened Qin Huai’s back.
Hearing her words, Xia Yuying’s face darkened even more.
“Sisters probably doesn’t mean it either. Grandfather, on the account of Wan Lan, don’t get angry with Yu Ying.” Xia Weilan said in a spoiled manner, as she shook Qin Huai’s arm, as if she was a little girl.
Qin Huai snorted, his expression did not loosen at all, and remained as stern as before.
“Yuying knows her wrongs, Yuying shouldn’t, I hope Old General does not blame us.” Seeing that the situation was not good, not only did Xia Yuying not take advantage of the situation today, she even suffered a loss of words.
Qin Huai touched his long eyebrows and said, “There will be no next time.”
Only then did Xia Yuying heave a sigh of relief, and she subconsciously looked in Tao Changan’s direction, only to see that Tao Changan had been staring straight in Xia Weilan’s direction.
The joy he had just felt was completely wiped away by this look of interest.
“Alright, alright, let’s do as you please. Sisters will also be heading back quickly.” Xia Weilan began to mediate.
Xia Yuying’s face became even more unsightly, now she was pretending to be a good person. Previously, it was said that she did not know the rules, and even the tune was unsuitable, just that Xia Yuying could not think too much, her hands started to itch again, the expression on her face started to look strange, and everyone was doing their own things so they did not notice her.
Only Xia Weilan who was seated in the highest position was paying attention to the Xia Yuying in front of her. Looking at her itching yet untouchable appearance, she really wanted to bind herself, probably like this.
Thinking about last time, when Xia Yuying also made a fool of herself due to such a thing, she could actually make the same mistake twice;
By the time the Dinner had dispersed, it was already dark. The stars had already hung high in the sky, and there was a bright moon in the sky.
Behind the fake mountain, two women.
“Xia Weilan, don’t go too far. Aren’t you afraid that I’ll tell my father?” Xia Yuying said fiercely.
Xia Weilan’s face did not have a single trace of a smile, instead, it was a little cold in the dark night. Hearing her words, her labial margin hooked up into an unknown smile: “If you did not have any evil intentions, why would you tie yourself up?”
“So what if I lose to you today? I won’t lose to you every single time. I’m telling you, you will definitely pay the price for your actions!” Xia Yuying said fiercely, her eyes filled with anger, revealing an ugly expression, she extended her hand out, but immediately retracted it, turned and left as though she was escaping.
Xia Weilan stared at her back until her back disappeared from her line of sight. Only then did she turn around and return to her room.
“Miss must be tired now, let me massage for you.” Yue Er hurried forward to serve her.
Xia Weilan sat on a stool in the Room, looking at the surrounding light blue decorations and all kinds of things. She felt sad, but this scene made her think of when Ling Jue had met her in the morning.
“Come out.” She said lightly, the phoenix eye suddenly became sharp.
A gust of wind blew past, and a man appeared in front of the three of them. He was covered in black, and even had a black mask on his face.
Yue Er stopped what she was doing and looked at the man who suddenly appeared in front of him. He resisted the urge to retreat, because his body was emitting a cold aura.
“What’s your name?” Xia Weilan asked.
“Nope.” “No,” he said.
Xia Weilan stared at him, her entire body was covered in black, the only thing that could express his feelings was her pair of eyes that were exposed.
“From now on, you’re called zero.” She didn’t say anything unnecessary because she knew that such a person had been trained by a professional. All aspects of his personality were definitely different from ordinary people.
“Miss, who is he?” Yue Er lowered her body and whispered into Xia Weilan’s ear as she asked carefully. From time to time, she glanced at the man.
Xia Weilan’s gaze did not leave Ling Zero’s body, and only replied: “He is Ling Jue’s man.”
Yue Er nodded, but she still did not dare go closer to the man, because the aura around his body was too terrifying, and she did not even know where he had come from.
