But after entering, Lin Shu felt that this Master Ningguogongfuda was completely different from the rumored silkpants. Furthermore, if Lu Jingran was truly vicious, then he wouldn't have risked his life to save him that day … … No matter how ruthless and vicious he became in the future, at this time, he had some good intentions in his heart, "I wonder what business you have with me?"

Lu Jingran felt that the little girl in front of him was somewhat interesting, "Are you not afraid of anything?"

Lin Shu thought that she had misheard, but the next moment, she understood the meaning behind his words, "I am just a woman, how can I not be afraid of anything? What was the use of being afraid? That day at the Manor, if they were really afraid, they might not have the guts to go to the kitchen cellar, or they might have already become the spirits of those people, or even be saved by you guys. Or they might have been scared and appear timid and slow down your footsteps, or they might even have already been pinched on First Princess Pingning's words … "

"I'm not talking about what happened at the Manor that day, I'm talking about what happened today!" Lu Jingran put down the tea Gu, and said with a somewhat playful smile on his face, "Whether it was that day when you exposed the scheme of First Princess Pingning and your grandmother in front of all the wives, or the day when you were chased by the people sent out by First Princess Pingning at the Manor, you don't have to be afraid, because you have no choice."

"However, you have a choice in the invitation today. I believe you have also heard of my reputation in the capital …" I never thought that you would actually dare to come! "

Lin Shu slowly said, "How is this what I heard? This is simply like thunder piercing one's ears! You only ask me why I'm here, and I actually want to ask you why I didn't reply to you a few days ago clearly.

It was not that she did not want to reply Lu Jingran, it was just that this letter was not simple at all, it would be even more difficult if he wanted to deliver the letter to the Linglong Pavilion. Now, no matter what she did in the Linglong Pavilion, the Nanny Wei would send someone to closely watch over her, afraid that she would cause any trouble, and writing a letter would be as difficult as being a thief … Only then did she give up.

Lu Jingran said unhurriedly: "I was just thinking that no matter what, I have saved Fourth Miss's life before. If I can't even satisfy this small request of mine, what did Fourth Miss become? Ingrate? "

He laughed and seemed to be in a good mood, "Furthermore, Fourth Miss is even willing to give away such noble grey water crystals, it shouldn't be difficult for him to come out to meet Fourth Miss, right? It's just that I don't understand why Fourth Miss would send this grey crystal over just because he thought of it. If I was an ignorant fool and casually gave it to a servant, wouldn't it be a pity? "

Lin Shu laughed, "You won't. I don't know who said that the old National Duke Ning was fond of collecting stones when he was still alive, but he thought that the people from your National Duke Ning Palace would all have this kind of taste, that's why he gave it away … Besides, would there really be someone in the world who would casually pick up a rock and give it to their savior? "

Lu Jingran leaned on the armchair closest to her, and spoke in a low voice: "Fourth Miss's words seem to make some sense. My grandfather's love stone isn't really a secret in the capital, but I have one thing I want to ask Fourth Miss, how did you know that I am from the National Duke Ning's residence?"

Lin Shu's heart skipped a beat, what was about to come was about to come.

She had only thought about how she should thank Lu Jingran and had forgotten about this matter after she had sent the thanks gift out for a few days. Only then did she remember, and logically speaking, she shouldn't have known about Lu Jingran's identity, "Actually, I already felt that you were a little familiar when I was at the manor that day, and seeing that you were all practicing your skills, I was sure that you were from an extraordinary background. Only then did I confirm that you are Master Ningguogongfuda …"

Lu Jingran only smiled at her and indicated for her to continue.

Actually, I've seen you in a carriage before. At that time, you were riding a horse and trampling the young master of the Guo family under your feet, raising a horsewhip in your hand. It was hard not to attract attention, even if you wanted to. At that time, the girl in the carriage mentioned this matter.

"So that's how it is!" Lu Jingran coughed lightly. In the end, he still felt a little awkward, "I didn't expect that not only will Fourth Miss be brave, but also smart."

Everyone understood the meaning behind these words, but they did not say it out loud.

If Lin Shu had said that he knew who he was at the Manor that day, no matter how Lin Shu cried and begged him, he would probably not have been able to save her. Who knew when Lin Shu would fall into the hands of the First Princess Pingning? If the First Princess Pingning knew that he was the one who saved Lin Shu's life that day, then the First Princess Pingning would definitely not let him off the hook with her personality.

And the current him, not to mention contending against the First Princess Pingning, he didn't even have the ability to contend against the Madame of the National Duke Ning!

Lin Shu laughed and changed the topic, "... Seeing as you seem to like those grey crystal stones, I am relieved. "

Lu Jingran liked to chat with smart people, it was effortless for him, he only thought that if this lady really married into the First Princess Pingning Palace, it would be such a waste … Initially, when his Aunt Di had proposed to marry Shao Xi, everyone said that Shao Xi had been ruined. He had seen Shao Xi once or twice from afar, and she was really an ordinary little girl.

's death did not affect Lu Jingran in the slightest. In these few years, he had experienced a lot in the Tianjin, and there were even some warriors who slept in the same room as him for several years who had already died. The battlefield was the most heartless of places, and to be able to treat people he knew this ruthlessly, let alone a stranger, let alone one who he knew, even if Shao Xi did not die, no matter if it was him or his Aunt Di, he would not allow Shao Xi to marry into the National Duke Ning Palace. It's already time for lunch, so you don't want to stay and have a taste of the Eight Treasures Rice that's just come out from the Celestial Fragrance Pavilion? "

Lin Shu had already stood up, "Thank you for your good intentions, it's just that I came out with my family members on my back, if I went back late and someone found out, not only would it worry mother, but it would also punish the two maidservants by my side!"

When she came out earlier, she used the reason of finding Lin Hui to sneak out, it was not good for her to leave for too long, if the Nanny Wei found out, she would be making a big fuss out of nothing.

Seeing that she was about to leave, Lu Jingran did not force her, but only lightly said, "Fourth Miss, please think that it is not appropriate to call me uncle and call me 'you'."

Uncle?

Lin Shu was stunned, what was going on?

Lu Jingran said with a smile: "I heard that Third Miss of Duke Xinzhong’s Mansion has already been betrothed to Huaiyin, saying that it's the end of next autumn. I'm afraid that Fourth Miss doesn't know, that Huaiyin and Huaiyin are actually relatives, even Huaiyin would have to call me Uncle Jingtang! At that time, Third Miss will also have to call me uncle, could it be that when Fourth Miss sees me, he will call me you? "

Speaking of which, he was not much older than Huaiyin by two years, but the people in the big families could not be messed with.

Lin Shu rolled her eyes at him, "But aren't my third sister still unable to marry into the Huaiyin's Palace?" She definitely did not want Lu Jingran to take advantage of her for a year just by talking about it.

After speaking, she bowed slightly and said, "Thank you for the matter at the manor that day." In the end, her tone was a bit more respectful. After all, she was an elder so she couldn't be too presumptuous.

Finished speaking, she turned around and was about to leave.

Or was the other party right? Lu Jingran was truly a dangerous person, who knew what was going through his mind?

She had only taken a few steps, and before she even had the time to leave, Lu Jingran had already dragged her behind. She panicked, "You, what are you doing?" She was so frightened that she forgot to use honorifics.

But now was not the time to care about all this. Lu Jingran blocked in front of him and said softly: "A large group of people have come up from outside."

He had been practicing martial arts since he was young, and his hearing was more sensitive than most people. Now, he could only sense that more than ten people were already on the stairs, and those people had light footsteps, "Those people are already on the stairs, so from the sound of their footsteps, they must be practicing martial arts. It's better not to go downstairs now, lest you get hit by them.

Just now, when Lin Shu went upstairs, the waiter was talkative, she only said that Lu Jingran was truly generous, and now that the price of the Celestial Fragrance Pavilion box had increased by 30%, he could still set up a box in one go, and even more so that this room was only opened today … Furthermore, the people who came were all practitioners, it was only at this time that she realized she had really underestimated the Princess Changze, "If I'm not mistaken, those people should be coming for me!"

Lu Jingran turned around and said in shock, "Why do you have so many enemies? And you always let me meet you? "

There was no way he could abandon a weak girl and leave alone. Moreover, he could only bring three or four people with him this time.

Lin Shu muttered, "I … "I don't know why I always call you …" She couldn't exactly say that Lu Jingran was really unlucky, but she was actually afraid that she was born into conflict with Lu Jingran, and that he would be chased down the moment he met him.

Thinking about it, she still held onto the corner of Lu Jingran's clothes tightly, "Uncle, I still have a Purple Water Crystal, do you want it?"

Now that she had a request, she had no choice but to lower her head.

Lu Jingran, "... This is not the time to talk about this. "

As he spoke, he raised his voice even more and said, "Ban Xia, come in!"

It was only then that Ban Xia noticed that something was amiss and brought everyone in, including naturally Actinin Qin and Yun Dou. He ordered people to hold on to the door even more tightly before he said: "Elder, what should we do?"
