You are the One and Only - C37
“Fourth brother, you’d better lower your voice!” “The other one was very well-behaved. His voice was not loud, but each word was spoken slowly and unhurriedly.” If I let Mother know, she’ll be unhappy! ”
“None of your business!” “The person from before said disdainfully.” What? He was going to complain to his mother again? “I really don’t think much of your looks. You always make a complaint, hmph!”
From their conversation, she already knew that they were the fourth and fifth young masters of the Prime Minister’s Estate, Qin Tong and Qin Song. Qin Tong was born to Aunt Li and was a little domineering, while Qin Song was the second son of the Mrs. Wang. Looking at her obedient, slow and slightly cowardly personality, she knew that the Mrs. Wang didn’t have much of an opinion on this matter.
Qin Tong was choked with rage, her face instantly flushed red as she glared at Qin Nuo.
“I am not a child, you are not a good person. You took my sister’s place and you came to teach her a lesson. I… “I …”
“Fourth brother!” Qin Song finally strolled in slowly and hurriedly stopped his fourth brother. Big Brother and Elder Sis are here, you can’t speak like that. ”
Qin Nuo subconsciously touched her forehead. Could she say that the Fifth Young Master’s speed of speaking was even slower than the Fourth Young Master’s?
“Why can’t I say that? Who said that?” Qin Tong stopped staring at Qin Nuo, and turned to stare at his fifth brother.
Qin Nuo suddenly suspected that other than being influenced by Aunt Li, this Qin Tong’s personality must have also been influenced by her fifth brother.
“Of course it’s me!” Following a voice that was neither too fast or too slow, Qin Feng walked in and cupped his hands towards Qin Duo. “Big brother!”
Then, he turned to Qin Nuo and clasped his hands together.
“Empress!”
“You should just call me A Nuo!” Towards Qin Feng, Qin Nuo more or less, had some grudges. However, at this point, she was not someone who would not forgive. Although she did not have a smile, his voice was gentle.
Qin Nuo slightly curled her lips. Earn a cheap little sister and help your family get out of trouble. Why does she feel that this Qin Feng is even more suitable to do business than her brother!
Ling Yexuan looked at Qin Nuo quietly. Ever since he came out of the Qin family, she had been pretending to be calm.
“What’s so funny?” Ling Yexuan had not wanted to ask, but he could not help but be curious. Seeing his brother’s joy wouldn’t make her smile so strangely.
“I didn’t expect the Qin brothers to be so interesting.” As Qin Nuo said this, the smile lines on the corner of his mouth couldn’t help but widen.
It was unknown if it was to allow her to become familiar with her “family” as soon as possible, but afterwards, Qin Feng had called his two younger brothers over to meet him. Looking at the older brother, Qin Duo should have seen Second Brother and Third Brother before, they were not strangers to each other.
What made Qin Nuo feel funny was the temperament of the five brothers.
Although Qin Feng seemed gentle and refined, he was actually a little naughty and cunning. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be able to think of a rotten idea of letting her marry him.
Second Elder Qin Yang was born to Aunt Dong. He looked rough and big, like a boorish man, but when he opened his mouth, he looked effeminate.
The third was Qin Wu, the eldest son of the Mrs. Wang. He was slightly cold, with a hint of arrogance in his tone, but had complete manners, and seemed to be on good terms with her brother Qin Duo.
Then, it was naturally that somewhat rude Qin Tong who was wholeheartedly aiming at his dear sister. Like a machine gun, she loved to shoot at people, not even putting Mrs. Wang in her eyes, but she was very afraid of Qin Feng.
The fifth brother spoke slowly and looked at everyone with anxiety, but he did not panic.
Qin Nuo felt that it was a pity that the peaches were not Ming Liu’s. Otherwise, she would definitely be able to vividly depict these five brothers with different personalities and learn from her.
“What’s interesting?” Ling Yexuan continued to ask.
Qin Nuo shook her head and did not speak further, the smile still on her face.
Although the five brothers had different personalities, there was one thing that they shared. It was their feelings towards the only young miss of the Qin family, Qin Muxue. Although they had all mentioned Qin Muxue before, not a single one of them complained that she only cared about relationships, and did not care about the Qin family’s old and young’s safety.
However, the truth about Qin Muxue’s “death” was hidden from Qin Tong and Qin Song. As a result, both of them thought that their elder sister was truly dead. Even though Qin Song was very courteous to both her and her brother, she could clearly feel that he was really close to her brother. He was actually very hostile to her, just not as obvious as Qin Tong.
Ling Yexuan did not reply for a long time and could not help but frown.
Again! Always! It was as if she did not need him to understand her emotions, much less participate in them. This made him feel a deep sense of defeat. There had never been a woman who treated him with such indifference!
The horse carriage stopped outside the gate. Ling Yexuan got down from the carriage first and extended his hand to help Qin Nuo out of the carriage. Along the way, Qin Nuo kept thinking about the five brothers of the Qin family with different personalities, and she couldn’t help but want to laugh. However, whether it was on purpose or out of carelessness, Ling Yexuan didn’t know. Qin Nuo lost her balance and couldn’t help but exclaim softly, “Ah!” Her entire person had already fallen into Ling Yexuan’s embrace.
Facing Ling Yexuan’s smiling gaze, Qin Nuo glared fiercely at him. This fellow must have done it on purpose! How childish! Was it that interesting to embarrass her?
Seeing that Ling Yexuan was still holding onto her waist and not releasing his hand, Qin Nuo struggled to stand up. She turned her head and saw that both Bi Tao and Ying He were laughing quietly.
Qin Nuo clenched her teeth, she wanted to be angry but was unable to show an angry look, she could only pretend to be calm and look elsewhere. When she saw it, she was stunned for a moment.
Not far away, Ling Yexuan’s concubine was standing beside another carriage, quietly watching her. Beside him, other than Zhuo Tao who was returning to the residence with Jing Shuyi and the married girl Mo Ju, there was also a tall and lanky man …
Ling Yexuan looked towards where Qin Nuo was looking at, and only then did he realise that Jing Shuyi was also there. And Jing Shuyi’s brother, the heir to the Duke of Wei, Jing Haoming, was standing beside Jing Shuyi, looking at him thoughtfully.
When Jing Shuyi felt Ling Yexuan’s gaze, his originally heavy face revealed a gentle smile, and he slowly walked in front of Ling Yexuan.
“Your Highness!”
Although Ling Yexuan was smiling, there was a trace of grievance and sorrow in his eyes, and after a moment, his heart started twitching. He was only concerned about teasing the woman, but he did not expect that this scene would happen to fall right into Shu Yi’s eyes.
“Ye Xuan!” Jing Haoming arrived in front of Ling Yexuan and said softly. I was worried that she’d come back alone and I was in a bad mood. ”
“I know.” Ling Yexuan looked at Jing Haoming. They had grown up together and when there were no outsiders present, Jing Haoming had always called him by his name. “Don’t worry!”
“Farewell!” Jing Haoming did not speak further, and turned to leave without waiting for Ling Yexuan to speak.
“Your Highness, don’t be angry with Eldest Brother. He’s worried about me too.” “Jing Shuyi reached out her hand, and arranged Ling Yexuan’s cape. Look at you, it’s so cold, and you don’t know how to take care of yourself. ”
Listening to Jing Shuyi’s gentle and rebuking voice, Ling Yexuan became absent-minded for a moment, as if he had returned to the past. She had always been sweet and gentle in front of him, and from time to time he had a little temper. But ever since he had married the Chief Consort, his gentleness had remained, and her loveliness had been replaced by a deep helplessness and sorrow.
But he, under her infatuated and sorrowful gaze, flirted with another woman!
“You’re still talking about me!?” “Isn’t it the same for you?” Ling Yexuan gently said as he reached out his hand.
However, the moment his hand touched Jing Shuyi’s hair, he froze. His eyes unconsciously turned in another direction, only to see that Qin Nuo, who was supporting the hand of the peaches, was sitting on a palanquin with a satisfied smile on his face. She was talking to Ying He, who was sitting at the other side of the palanquin.
Ling Yexuan suddenly felt a dull pain in his chest, as though he had not breathed in for a long time, causing him to feel a heavy burden on his heart. Damn woman! Is it so hard to show that you care about him a little?
Jing Shuyi did not ignore the spirit liquid that suddenly stopped flowing. She let out a deep sigh, and the corner of her mouth raised into a smile.
Ling Yexuan immediately retracted his gaze. Jing Shuyi tried hard to control his sorrowful look, causing his heart to clench again, but he unconsciously retracted his hand.
“You’re tired too, go back and rest!” As Ling Yexuan spoke, he turned and left in big strides, not giving another glance at the other party.
Chen Zhuo and Meng Liu who were standing at the side hurriedly followed along. Meng Liu did not forget to pout his lips towards Chen Zhuo as he shook his head helplessly.
Jing Shuyi looked at Ling Yexuan’s back as she left hastily. Her hands hidden inside her sleeves, could not help but clench into a fist. Even with her long nails, she felt a deep pain on her palm …
Qin Nuo glanced at Ling Yexuan who was seriously reading the book with a guarded expression. This fellow had been sitting here ever since he came back from the outside, and although he said that he was reading, his eyes were fixated on that page. His face was dark, as though he was throwing a tantrum at a book.
However, those lass s were very tactful, they all left without Ling Yexuan’s orders, leaving her alone to face Ling Yexuan in silence. She wasn’t afraid of being bored, but why did he feel that this fellow didn’t want to leave!
No way!
“It’s late at night! Your Highness, it’s time to rest. ” Qin Nuo felt that her eyelids were heavy, so she opened her mouth first. After all, she hadn’t taken a nap after returning home today. To her, this was an extremely uncomfortable thing.
Ling Yexuan did not pretend not to hear what she said as he slowly raised his head and looked straight at her with a ridiculing smile at the corner of his mouth.
“Esteemed wangfei, where do you want this prince to rest? Could it be that this place is not This King’s Duke Palace? “
