Chapter 88
Ling Jingshu entered Ling Jingyan’s boudoir
This boudoir was not too big, and it was packed quite delicately
Beside the hollow carved wooden bed was a cabinet for clothes, the size of which was quite a bit larger than ordinary cabinets
The dressing mirror was filled with bright silk flowers and exquisite hair clips
Ling Jingyan sat in front of the dressing mirror, pursing her lips, her complexion dark and uncertain
Ling Jingshu walked to Ling Jingyan’s side and whispered, “Cousin Yan, I’m here”
Ling Jingyan did not look at Ling Jingshu, instead she turned her head and commanded, “You all retire, no one is allowed to come in without my orders”
The maids answered and retreated in unison
Before Bai Yu Lin retreated, she gave Ling Jingshu a worried look
Looking at this situation, the eighth young miss is quite angry this time!
Miss must be careful how she handles it
Ling Jingshu smiled reassuringly at Bai Yu
Don’t worry, I can handle it
After the door closed, only Ling Jingshu and Ling Jingyan remained in the room
Ling Jingshu did not turn around or say anything, as if she was purposely competing
Ling Jingshu wasn’t in a hurry either, she just stood behind Ling Jingyan, waiting for her to open her mouth first
The fact proved that Ling Jingyan was obviously not as calm as Ling Jingshu
After a while, she broke the silence with an exasperated voice: “Why don’t you say a word”
Ling Jingshu pretended to smile helplessly, “Cousin Yan, it was clearly you who specifically called me over and said you had something to say to me
You have been refusing to open your mouth, so how would I know what you have to say”
Once she opened her mouth, Ling Jingyan did not sulk anymore and turned around rather indignantly
Glaring at Ling Jingshu, “You’re so smart, how could you not guess what I’m looking for you for”
Of course she could guess
It was nothing more than for King Yan’s other eye
However, Ling Jingyan did not say so
Ling Jingshu also did not say anything about this layer and deliberately played dumb, “Cousin Yan, don’t beat around the bush with me
Just say what you have to say
There’s no one else here, just the two of us
No matter what we say, only the two of us will know
I promise I won’t reveal a word to anyone else
Even if Ah Xiao asks, I won’t say anything”
But how could she say it?
Ling Jingyan stared at Ling Jingshu’s innocent pretty face
Angry and aggrieved, “You clearly know what I’m going to say, but you just play dumb you bully me!”
The tears that had been held back for half a day were like a floodgate opening at this moment
They flowed out
Ling Jingyan wiped her tears with her sleeve, and before the tears could be wiped clean, more tears gushed out
Looking wretched and pitiful, her mouth tumbled over and over repeating a few wordsYou bully me,” people cry up is pear flower with rain delicate and timid
Ling Jingyan is bawling tears flow like a stream without image
A look of water flooding the mountains
Ling Jingshu sighed softly and softly coaxed, “Yes, yes, yes, it’s all my fault, it’s me who bullied you
Either that or, can you beat me up to take out your anger?”
Ling Jingyan huffed and continued to cry, “I’ve been in love with King Yan since a few months ago
I went to Ding Xiang Lou today specifically because I was hoping to meet him there
I didn’t expect to see him, but he can’t remember who I am, but he’s paying extra attention to you
He even asked someone to send you an invitation” “The most hateful thing is that you even refused to take it
Why doesn’t he remember me
Why doesn’t he look at me more, why doesn’t he send me a name tag” “It’s all your fault
If it weren’t for you
How could King Yan not even look at me” “You bullied me
I hate you, I don’t like you anymore” Ling Jingyan broke off while crying and accidentally choked on her own saliva
A face instantly turned red and coughed violently
The tears on her face had not dried, and there was more snot on her face, not to mention how wretched she was
A hand sent a silk handkerchief to her eyes
Ling Jingyan took the silk handkerchief, wiped her tears and snot as if to vent her anger, and then blew her nose hard
She rubbed the silk handkerchief angrily into a ball and shoved it back, “I don’t want you to pretend to be kind, I’m giving it back to you!”
Ling Jingshu: “”Such an old man, still throwing tantrums, like a child of a few years old”
Ling Jingshu felt both angry and amused, placing the silk handkerchief on the dressing mirror without changing her color, and patting Ling Jingyan’s back to smooth out her anger: “After crying for so long, and scolding me for so long, you should be in a better mood now!”
Yes, she has cried and scolded
She was so unreasonable, but Ling Jingshu didn’t say a word!
If she didn’t appreciate it anymore, she would really be ungrateful
Ling Jingyan bit her lip, and only after a long time did she reluctantly open her mouth and say, “Ah Shu, I know that you are not to blame for what happened today
I am just not happy in my heart, and this is why I lost my temper at you
I’m sorry!”
Ling Jingyan was indeed quick-tempered and would occasionally play with her temper, however, her heart was kind
It made it impossible to be half angry at her
Ling Jingshu smiled faintly, moved a stool over and sat beside Ling Jingyan
She said gently, ”We are first cousins, with the Ling family’s blood flowing in our bodies, breaking bones is still connected to tendons!
How could I be angry with you”Since the words have been spoken, you shouldn’t hide them from me
What exactly is going on between you and King Yan?”
Ling Jingyan was straightforward in nature and could not hide her words at all
Having kept this secret in her heart all these months, it was actually very hard to hold it in
Now that Ling Jingshu already knew, there was no need to hide it anymore
Ling Jingshu said in a low voice, ”Last year in the month of Lunar New Year, I was bored at home and pestered big brother to take me out for a walk
Big brother then took me to the South Market and went to Ding Xiang Lou for lunch
On the third floor, I met a few drunken dudes
With a few drinks in them, they wantonly flirted with me”Big brother was furious, but he was only one person, while there were three or four on the other side”Probably the noise and commotion was too powerful, startling the noble guest in the Listening Bamboo Pavilion
That noble guest was unhappy in his heart, so he ordered someone to open the door and whisked away all those drunken foppish dudes”Big brother and I naturally have to thank the honored guest “The following is clear without having to say anything else
That honored guest, of course, was King Yan who had microdressed to Ding Xiang Lou for dinner
This kind of thing, a hero saving a beautiful woman, was the easiest thing to make a young girl fantasize and feel good about
What’s more, His Highness the King of Yan was that kind of handsome and suave young man who was wantonly evil
From that day onwards, the figure of King Yan was firmly imprinted in Ling Jingyan’s heartA Shu,” Ling Jingyan’s eyes flushed with water again, choking back tears, “I’ve grown up so much, but I’ve never liked someone like this before
I thought about him day in and day out, secretly poking around for all the news about him, going to great lengths to see him just once
But I didn’t realize that he didn’t remember me at all”
