Xia Weilan closed her eyes and leaned her head against the wood at the side of the Carriage, not saying a word and ignoring Ling Jue's words. Just now, when she was alone, he couldn't ignore her, but it was different now, it was just the two of them, so she could do whatever she wanted.
"You're not talking because you're afraid of me?" Ling Jue's body drew closer, his tone carrying ridicule.
Xia Weilan's eyes suddenly opened wide, fiercely staring at Ling Jue, her lips pursed but she did not say a word.
A trace of playfulness slipped through Ling Jue's heart as he reached out and brought Xia Weilan into his embrace. The warm air gushed out from her neck and Xia Weilan uneasily struggled out of his embrace, but she was unable to succeed.
"Just what are you doing!?" Hurry and let me go! " At this moment, Xia Weilan no longer had any disguise on his face, and the expression on his face became vicious and fierce.
However, her angry look was extremely cute in Ling Jue's eyes, he liked her a lot.
Looking at the Smiling's expression, Xia Weilan felt even more agitated. She opened her mouth and said: "You never end, right?"
Before she could finish her words, Ling Jue had blocked her mouth.
The instant Xia Weilan's eyes opened wide, she pushed him away fiercely and used her sleeves to wipe her mouth in disgust. The blood in her head surged, and she raised her hand to move.
He grabbed her arm and said coldly, "Why are you still trying to hit me?"
She was stunned, the body shrank back, but at the same time, she was stunned. She did not understand why the person in front of her was so cold, or perhaps, why the change happened so quickly.
"decedent, as long as you don't do anything, it's fine." Xia Weilan forcibly pulled her hand away from Ling Jue's grasp, while her other hand gently rubbed her wrist, her expression returning to normal, and no one could tell what just happened.
Ling Jue was stunned for a moment, his eyes became even more serene and profound, he casually took off the jade pendant on his body, and was about to tie it to Xia Weilan.
With a "pa" sound, Xia Weilan frowned, and knocked off Ling Jue's hand, and said angrily: "What are you trying to do now!"
Seeing that she was not angry at all, but instead revealed a demonic smile, Ling Jue once again tied the jade pendant on Xia Weilan's waist with force, and casually said: "This is what my mufei left for this decedent, you must carefully collect it."
After saying that, Ling Jue tactfully retreated to the side, once again distancing himself from Xia Weilan.
Xia Weilan was confused as she looked at Ling Jue with a complicated expression. She caressed the exquisite jade pendant with one hand and felt the warmth from the touch and the warmth from the touch. There was a person's appearance engraved on it.
Along the way, Xia Weilan and Ling Jue did not say another word. When the Carriage stopped, Xia Weilan hurriedly came down from above and ran in the direction of Grand Princess Ping Ning's direction.
Ling Jue looked at her back, his thin lips revealing a trace of a smile, his eyes becoming even deeper.
Hou Mansion.
"Mother, I will never be able to swallow my anger. When she comes back, I will definitely let her know how powerful I am!" Xia Yuying wiped his tears and mucus off his nose, completely not looking like a lady from a noble family.
Second Aunt sighed. This daughter of hers, seemed to not have any brains, always making her worry. If it wasn't for her planning everything for this daughter, who knows how many times she would have died.
"Don't get so worked up yet, haven't you realized the current situation? Grand Princess Ping Ning really likes her now, even the marquis has no choice but to give her some face. Even if it's the Mansion of the State behind his, he has to treat Xia Weilan well." She sighed, and there was a note of disappointment in her voice.
Xia Yuying's crying stopped for a while, and the expression on her face became even more subtle, "Mother means to say, you still want me to please her? Could it be that Mother has forgotten about the day when she …"
Xia Yuying's shoulders drooped. This young mistress was always easy to talk to and had a weaker personality, so she was the one who decided everything in the palace. Sometimes, she would even bully her, but Xia Yuying didn't say anything.
She had never submitted to this young mistress before, but now she had to humbly curry favor with her and beg her.
"Do I have to endure all the humiliation I've suffered in the past!?"
"If you don't want to endure, you can't do anything to her at this moment!"
"Lan Er, this is kind of dangerous!" Ling Jue caressed his chin with one hand and pointed at the chess board with the other.
With the three of them enjoying the show, she rested after walking for a while. On a whim, she wanted to compare notes with Xia Weilan. Now, she was sitting on a stone bench with him.
"The spectators of the decedent should not have said a word." Xia Weilan said indifferently.
Even though she looked calm on the surface, she had many thoughts in her mind. It was impossible for her to win if they played chess together. If she won, a single mistake would make her angry. That way, things wouldn't be so easy in the future.
However, losing was losing, and this matter could not be revealed. If he found out that she had purposely let Princess Pingning off, it would make him feel foolish.
"Aunt, it's boring watching all of you act this way. How about you let me play chess with Lan Er?" After Ling Jue finished speaking, he moved closer to Princess Pingning.
Xia Weilan's eyes instantly widened as she looked at Ling Jue, only leaving her with a view of her back.
The hand under her sleeve gradually tightened, and veins started to bulge on her temples. This Ling Jue always wanted to disrupt her plans, and made all her plans go down the drain.
"This subject's daughter is insignificant, how can she be compared with decedent?" Xia Weilan revealed a faint smile, her expression completely calm and steady.
Xia Weilan could only smile and nod her head. Lowering her eyes, she reached out her hand and picked up the chess pieces one by one.
A huge shadow fell on his head. Xia Weilan didn't even look up to know that this was Ling Jue's body.
Ling Jue saw that it would be difficult for her to pick up the chess pieces by himself, so he extended his hand to help her pick them up.
In the midst of the interweaving black and white pieces, her hand actually touched his hand. His hand was not warm, so in such a cool weather, it seemed a little cold.
