Chapter 22

This spitting out was by no means an adjective

Ling Jingshu had really thrown up

Her stomach seemed to be churning with something, her whole body was stiff and numb, but her fingers, which were touched by Lu Hong before, were hot, as if they were being burned by fire

Lu Hong was also shocked by Ling Jingshu’s fierce reaction and stood still

He watched as Ling Jingshu’s face vomited in pain

The human body’s reaction was the most direct and keen

He only touched her finger, and her reaction was so violent

It turned out that she wasn’t being tongue-in-cheek, she really hated him!

The sound of Ling Jingshu vomiting startled Bai Yu who was guarding the courtyard door

Bai Yu hurriedly pushed open the courtyard door, and when she saw Ling Jingshu’s wretched vomiting appearance, she was both shocked and heartbroken

Busy running over, she assisted Ling Jingshu while patting her back, “Miss, what’s wrong with you?

Are you uncomfortable somewhere?”

After vomiting cleanly, the spasmodic twitching in her stomach finally subsided

Ling Jingshu’s entire body was weak, her arms and legs were sore and limp as she leaned on Bai Yu’s shoulder, her face miserable

Bai Yu’s voice had already choked: ”It was fine before, how did it suddenly become like this

Slave girl this will let people go to report to the master and wife, now invite a doctor to ” “Don’t alarm anyone”

Ling Jingshu’s voice was breathless but unusually insistent, “You help me into the house

I’ll be fine after resting for a while”

Bai Yu couldn’t argue with Ling Jingshu and could only respond helplessly

Out of the corner of her eye, she caught sight of Lu Hong’s stiff, ugly and sad handsome face, and her heart became increasingly strange

What exactly happened just now?

How did Miss suddenly throw up?Miss is not feeling well, the slave girl will first help Miss into the house to rest

It’s not convenient to send Table Young Master”

Bai Yu spoke very politely, but the implication was clear

Yes, he should also leave!

Lu Hong wanted to open his mouth to say goodbye to Ling Jingshu, but as soon as he looked up and saw Ling Jingshu’s wretched and weak appearance, he swallowed all his words

Then, he turned around and left

When he came, he was full of joy and expectation, and his steps were quick

When he left, his heart was sour and sad, and his feet were as stagnant as a thousand pounds

Lu Hong lost his mind and left the Autumn Water Pavilion

Just a few steps out, he met Ling XiaoCousin Hong,” Ling Xiao perked up his ears to listen to the sound of Ling Xiao’s footsteps, the corners of his lips lifted into clean lines, “I’ve been waiting here for you

Have you seen A Shu?”

Lu Hong’s face stiffened, he couldn’t squeeze a smile out at all and only gave a low hmmm

Ling Xiao curiously pursues, “Did you confess your feelings to her?

What was her reaction?”

Lu Hong looks obscure, his voice a little low, “It was me who was too abrupt

She doesn’t have half a good feeling for me at all” He could no longer deceive himself and tell himself that in fact, she also had a favorable impression of him in her heart, but just refused to show it due to the young girl’s reserve

She loathed him!

So disgusted that she didn’t want to look at him more than once!

So disgusted that when he only touched her fingers, she retched her stomach and vomited!

Thinking of all this, Lu Hong only felt as if her heart had been emptied, empty and uncomfortable

Ling Xiao can’t see Lu Hong, he doesn’t know that Lu Hong’s eyes are overflowing with sadness and loneliness at this moment, and even quietly glistening with water

However, he could hear the trembling and despair in Lu Hong’s voice

Ling Xiao secretly sighed and patted Lu Hong’s shoulder soothingly, ”Cousin Hong, don’t be too upset

It’s probably because there’s no destiny between you and Ah Shu

With your family history and character and looks and talents, you will definitely have a good marriage in the future”A good marriage ” Lu Hong murmured and whispered, smiling miserably

No matter how many beautiful and lovely maidens there were in the world, no one could replace Ling Jingshu

Without her, where would he have a good marriage?

Lu Hong was in a low mood and really did not feel like talking

Ling Xiao doesn’t know how to comfort him anymore, and after some thought, says, “Cousin Hong, you’re in a bad mood, so don’t go to the theater

Lest you reveal something wrong in front of people

Why don’t you go back to the house first and stay alone”

Lu Hong hmmm’d and left with a heavy stride

Ling Xiao stood in place for a moment, then walked towards the Autumn Water Pavilion

Ling Xiao had been blind for many years and knew the roads of the Ling Mansion like the back of his hand, especially the road to the Autumn Water Pavilion, he didn’t know how many times he had walked it

He had long since become familiar with it

There was no need for a maid to assist him

Just after taking a step into the courtyard, Ling Xiao smells a strange smell and there is also a sound

Ling Xiao frowned

Just about to open his mouth to inquire, Bai Yu’s voice has already sounded, “Sixth Young Master, why are you here”Bai Yu, what are you doing?”

Ling Xiao asks without answering, “Where is Ah Shu?”

Bai Yu hesitates slightly and finally tells the truth: “Just now, the Lu family’s cousin young master was talking to the young lady alone, and somehow, the young lady regurgitated and vomited

Now she is resting in the house!

The slave girl is here to clean up ” Before the words were finished, Ling Xiao had already changed his face and immediately lifted his feet and went to Ling Jingshu’s bedchamber

Because his mind was flustered, he also lost his usual calmness and composure, and almost fell down with one foot

Jingyu exclaims in shock and rushes forward to help Ling Xiao: “Young master, be careful!”

Ling Xiao’s thin chest rises and falls sharply a few times, takes a few deep breaths, and settles his mind, “Don’t worry, I’m fine

I’m going to go in and take a look at Ah Shu”

Jing Yu cannot rest assured and follows behind Ling Xiao without moving an inch

Only when Ling Xiao pushes the door in, does she stop, gently closing the door to the room and guarding the doorAh Shu,” Ling Xiao fumbles his way to the bedside, a look of anxiety and eagerness on his face, “How are you now?”

The moment Ling Xiao pushed the door in, Ling Jingshu opened her eyes

Her face is still a little pale, not much blood, and her voice is a little weak, “I’m fine, you don’t have to worry”You’ve thrown up, how can you be fine”

Ling Xiao sits on the edge of the bed with a face of chagrin and self-reproach, “It’s all my fault, I shouldn’t have taken it upon myself to arrange a private meeting between Cousin Hong and you”

Speaking of this, in his heart, he could not help but feel a little strange again

What exactly did Lu Hong do to make Ling Jingshu react so violently!

Ling Jingshu could see the doubts in Ling Xiao’s heart, but did not want to explain more, and said in a light-hearted manner, “I really have nothing, just now I suddenly felt sick to my stomach, so I threw up

I’ll be fine after a few moments of rest, you don’t have to worry, and don’t tell anyone about today”

Ling Xiao solemnly responded, and after a moment’s hesitation, asked in a low voice, “Ah Shu, do you really not like cousin Hong Hong at all?”

Without hesitation, Ling Jingshu responded decisively, “Of course not

If I could, I wouldn’t want to see him at all”

She only had a bone-deep hatred and loathing for him, and would never want to be involved with him again in this life

Ling Xiao also stopped pursuing the matter

A Shu hated Lu Hong and didn’t want to see him, so in the future, she would try not to let him appear in front of A Shu

The two of them did not speak, and the room was quiet

Ling Jingshu looked down at her fingers, the place touched by Lu Hong still had a strange burning sensation, making her vaguely nauseous, very uncomfortable

This feeling, it’s just not right

Ling Jingshu tentatively reached out and held Ling Xiao’s hand

Xiao’s hand is soft and warm, the familiar touch is reassuring

The stupid feeling of nausea that had been stirring up before subsided like a tidal wave

Only then did Ling Jingshu secretly breathe a sigh of relief

Ling Jingshu did not dare to rest for too long, after about half an hour, she went with Ling Xiao to the side of the theater stage

The troupe was singing Five Daughters’ Birthday Tribute, the singing was wonderful and lively, the crowd was watching with great interest, no one noticed Ling Jingshu’s return

Only Ling Jingyan smiled and asked, “Why were you gone for so long?”

Ling Jingshu replied as if nothing had happened, “I don’t like to listen to theater, so I just went back to the Autumn Water Pavilion and secretly slept for a while”

Ling Jingyan didn’t suspect anything and didn’t ask any further questions, pulling her hand and whispering, “Grandmother’s birthday banquet is going to be held for three days, and this troupe is going to sing for three days in a row as well, so there will be a lot of excitement in the next couple of days ” Ling Jingshu listened absentmindedly

The hand that was being held by Ling Jingyan did not feel any different

It seemed that just now, it was because she hated Lu Hong too much that she was extraordinarily averse to his touch

At shenzhen time, the theater troupe finally dispersed

The guests who came to celebrate the birthday bid farewell one by one, the Ling family was busy again, and after sending off the guests, the family banquet in the evening was almost ready to start

The Ling family has been in Dingzhou for a hundred years, and there are many clansmen

This branch of the Ling family is a direct descendant

Old Mrs Ling’s seniority was extremely high, and today was her 70th birthday, so there were an unknown number of clansmen who came to celebrate her birthday

It was a family banquet, but there were more than a dozen seats

Men and women are seated on separate tables

Lu An swept his eyes, but did not see Lu Hong’s figure, could not help but wrinkle his brows, called Lu Qian and asked, “Ah Qian, where is Ah Hong?”

Lu Qian lowered his head and replied, “I haven’t seen big brother either”

It was not known what kind of trouble Lu Qian was having, he had been avoiding him for the past few days

When he met, he never took the initiative to speak

When he asked, Lu Qian didn’t dare not to answer

But that look of avoidance was really exasperating

Lu An instructed with an unhappy face, “You quietly go and look for it, and make sure to come back before the dinner starts”

Lu Qian responded and numbly went to look for someone

Looking at Lu Qian’s departing figure, Lu An’s mood was not much better

He had been in Dingzhou for a few days now, and every day he socialized with a few of his uncles, and there were not a few large and small officials in Dingzhou City who came up to get close to him

However, in the end is in Ling’s mother’s house, many things have to restrain some

At most, the banquet called some singers to accompany the wine, the matter of bedding is not to think about

For one day can not be without female sex Lu An, such days is tantamount to cultivation and suffering, the whole day to Ling’s mediocre and the color of the face, there is really no fun

A daze, a beautiful face with a beautiful face suddenly attacked the mind

Lu An had always been fond of beautiful and alluring mature women, and most of the concubines in his mansion were of this type

He never thought that he would be attracted to a young girl who was not yet mature
