"No?" Ling Jue had an evil smile in his eyes.

Heavy breath gushed from her neck, and for a moment she didn't know what to say.

"Nothing." She could only whisper.

Ling Jue listened to her words, but didn't argue as usual, as an unknown warmth flowed through his heart.

His movements were gentle as he placed her on the bed. Unknowingly, the coat Xia Weilan was wearing had already been draped over the screen since long ago.

Ling Jue's gaze fell upon the jade pendant on the screen, something seemed to be slowly flowing in the depths of his eyes.

Without waiting for Xia Weilan to stand up, he began to undress.

Xia Weilan opened her eyes and looked at the man unabashedly stripping of the Clothes in front of her, the GIRL that had yet to leave the pavilion. Although this was not the first time she had seen this kind of scene, she still turned her head away.

"Do you always like to go to the lady who has yet to leave the house to undress?" Xia Weilan scoffed, her face was cold, but her cheeks were flushed red.

Ling Jue's hands stopped moving, his face carrying a hint of playfulness: "Are you jealous?"

Xia Weilan's heart thumped once, "Heh, why should I be jealous? I'm not related to you in any way."

She actually didn't know what she was thinking. She clearly wanted to stay away from this person, but why was this person always trying to find ways to appear before her?

Sensing that someone was lying down beside her, she took a deep breath to calm herself down.

Ling Jue carried her in his embrace, and the two of them faced each other. Xia Weilan rested his arm on top of her head, and the faint fragrance of the Dragon's Saliva rushed into Xia Weilan's nose.

"Where did you get this jade pendant?" Ling Jue brought the jade pendant before Xia Weilan's eyes and saw that the body had also woken up.

Xia Weilan was startled for a moment, but immediately reacted, snatching the jade pendant from his hand, as though it was protecting some kind of rare treasure behind him, and coldly said: "What are you doing here?"

Ling Jue was also stunned for a moment.

Xia Weilan looked at Ling Jue who was pressing down on him with a profound gaze, as though she was brewing a storm. It seemed that he was angry.

She did not understand why he was angry. She wanted to say something, but she realized that she was not his, and why she had to explain.

She was held in this way, and the two of them maintained the same posture for a long time.

She lifted her head to look at his face. It no longer had its usual charm. There was a certain peace on his face, and as he looked at her, he felt a sense of serenity.

The phoenix eyes were also closed. They no longer possessed their usual seductive feel. Only the cinnabar mole on his forehead could move a person's heart at night. His nose was extremely high and had a beautiful curvature.

Xia Weilan shook her head fiercely. Looking at his face which was gradually calming down, she was now sure that he wouldn't do anything. She couldn't help but think that the last time was also the same way.

Thinking of this, she didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She didn't know what to do.

She also couldn't figure out why Ling Jue kept approaching her but didn't do anything at all. Could it be that there was an even bigger conspiracy?!

Thinking of this, her heart turned cold. Her initially slightly opened heart once again shut tightly.

Today, she smiled so bitterly that she didn't have the mood to think about it anymore.

She closed her eyes and stopped thinking about all this nonsense. She just wanted to get a good night's sleep. If there was anything she wanted, she would wait until tomorrow.

In front of the dressing table, Xia Weilan was carefully combing her hair with a wooden comb.

"Where did you get this jade pendant?"

"Miss, we can't leave her here."

"It's Ling Xuan" Xia Weilan blurted out. The person in front of him, was not Ling Jue, but Yue Er.

"Ling Xuan? Miss, you cannot speak the name of Prince directly. " Yue Er said carefully.

Only then did Xia Weilan come back to her senses, her eyes carried a trace of disappointment, and an indescribable emotion. She only responded indifferently, her face returning to normal.

"Let's go to Lou Yuan to see the Grandmother in a while." she whispered.

After a short while, Xia Weilan had already stepped into Lou Yuan's territory.

"My granddaughter greets Grandmother." My granddaughter greets Grandmother. Xia Weilan said with a smile.

She was wearing a coupled colored skirt and there was only a pure hairpin on her head.

"Hurry and get up, I'm not talking, you are still the direct descendant of Hou Mansion, your clothes are way too clean, you should be dressed up well." Old Mistress Xia said with regret as she helped her body up.

Xia Weilan could only say with grievance: "Lan Er understands."

"I have some jewelry and materials that I need to send over to you." The Old Mistress Xia said.

She originally didn't care about these things, but since she had already spoken, she didn't feel like refusing anymore.

"Yes, Lan Er will listen to Grandmother." Xia Weilan said indifferently.

"What did you say?" Is there a problem with the Accounts? " The Old Mistress Xia body moved forward a little, its withered hands trembling a little, its eyes filled with disbelief.

After all these years, the Accounts had always been in the hands of the Second Aunt, so she had never lost anything when it came to using energy in the palace. Furthermore, she would be filial to her from time to time, so she did not care too much about it.

"Don't be angry Grandmother for now, this matter cannot be rushed. After we finish eating, I will go out to take a look at the situation of the shops and make a decision. What do you think?" Xia Weilan asked with a trace of curiosity.

Only then did she feel a lot better. An unknown emotion flowed through Xia Weilan's heart, she truly felt that if she did not give him some good kicks, she would probably pass out from anger.

"Then go." Old Mistress Xia sighed, her shoulders drooping, as though she was weak.

"Then Grandmother must not reveal this matter first, lest others hear and take precautions." Xia Weilan said in a low voice.

It was only then that Old Mistress Xia looked at her granddaughter seriously. She did not expect that her thoughts were actually quite thorough, but this would save her the trouble of thinking about it. She could only nod her head.
