Qinglian's eyes swayed, because she often did housework, and her rough fingers squeezed Chen Lu's shoes tightly...
"Uh, no, I expressed it wrongly."
Seeing Qinglian looking like a kitten about to be abandoned, Chen Lu realized that what he said was wrong.
"What I mean is, during this period, please don't live with me.
I have a task to do. This task is to be Madam Xia's bodyguard, but I can't tell you the details.
All in all, during this period of time, you will live with Miss Wang first.
When my mission is completed, I will pick you up, okay?
Otherwise, it would be too dangerous for you to be with me all this time."
"Chen Lu..."
"Um?"
"Can you finish your speech in one go from now on?"
After listening to Chen Lu's explanation, Ye Qinglian seemed to be relieved and continued to lower his head and wash Chen Lu's shoes.
"I thought......"
"Why?"
"Nothing." Ye Qinglian turned her head slightly.
"Then the matter is settled. You and Miss Wang will live together during this period."
Chen Lu decided.
"Okay, I'm going to go to Mrs. Xia's mansion next door to do some errands. There's no need to wash the shoes. You can clean them up. I'll ask Miss Wang to come back and pick you up later. I'm leaving."
"Chen Lu." Just when Chen Lu was about to get up, Qinglian looked at Chen Lu blinking.
"Um?"
"If I were here, would it affect Chen Lu's work?"
"Nope."
"Then will I affect your safety, Chen Lu?"
"No way."
"If it doesn't affect you, then I won't leave."
"Idiot, but if something happens, for example, my identity is exposed, it will be very dangerous for you, an ordinary person, to be with me all the time."
"Chen Lu, I'm not a fool, and I'll say it again, I'm smarter than you." Qing Lian looked a little unhappy, "Also, when you saw the mouse before, you ran faster than me."
"That was before." Chen Lu rubbed the corners of his eyes, and then looked at Ye Qinglian seriously, "Actually, Qinglian, if you are here, it will affect me."
"Chen Lu..."
"Um?"
"I'm not a fool. You just said it wouldn't affect you."
"......All right."
"Qinglian, listen to me."
Chen Lu looked at Qinglian from bottom to top.
"This matter is really dangerous. If something happens to me, and the other party knows that you live with me, they will definitely attack you.
But if you are with Miss Wang, at least your safety can be guaranteed."
"Chen Lu, are you going to die?" Ye Qinglian tilted his head slightly.
"I have to say, that is indeed possible." Chen Lu nodded seriously and told the truth, wanting to let Qing Lian know the seriousness of the matter so that Qing Lian would retreat.
Listening to Chen Lu's answer, Ye Qinglian lowered her head slightly, not knowing what she was thinking.
Chen Lu was also waiting for Qinglian's answer.
After five breaths, Qing Lian raised her head and said, "Chen Lu, then I can't leave."
Chen Lu: "Why?"
Qinglian blinked: "If you die, no one will collect your body."
"Idiot." Chen Lu laughed angrily, "I'm afraid neither of us will have anyone to collect the body by then."
"..."
Ye Qinglian seemed to have noticed the flaw in his logic and lowered his head again.
After another six breaths, Ye Qinglian raised his head again:
"Chen Lu, do you know?
I heard that the road to the underworld is very scary. There are monsters, wild ghosts, and some very fierce-looking ghosts."
"So?" Chen Lu smiled and wanted to see what other excuses Qing Lian could come up with.
"So, you, a person who is even afraid of mice, will definitely not dare to move forward, and you were so lustful during your lifetime. You will definitely fall into hell and be unable to be reincarnated."
Chen Lu: "So?"
Qing Lian's big gem-like eyes looked directly at Chen Lu. They were neither sad nor happy, but they made people feel soft:
"The master and madam have explained it."
"Let me take good care of you."
"So... after you die, I will be by your side, and I can follow you as soon as possible."
"If you follow me, you don't have to worry about ghosts."
"If you are confused by a female ghost, I can hold you back."
"This way, on the Huangquan Road, if you hold the corner of my clothes, you won't get lost..."
...
On the way back home, Wang Tong felt a little absent-minded.
In Wang Tong's mind, the conversation he had with Chen Lu by the river still echoed.
Especially on the way back, Wang Tong kept thinking about the relationship between Chen Lu and Qing Lian.
What is the relationship between Chen Lu and Qing Lian?
The main reason why Chen Lu accepted this task must be for Qing Lian. For Qing Lian, Chen Lu was willing to take risks.
Even Chen Lu was willing to put himself in a dangerous situation, but he didn't want Qing Lian to be in any danger.
Could it be that Chen Lu likes him...
Thinking about it...
Wang Tong felt sour and confused, as if a ball of twists had been tangled together.
Wang Tong didn't know why he felt this way.
I have never felt this way...
What's wrong with me?
Could it be that I am too tired?
"Miss, miss, miss..."
"Ah...Xiao Ling...what's wrong?"
Unknowingly, when Wang Tong came to his senses, he realized that he had returned to his mansion.
"That's the lady. What's wrong with the lady? Are you feeling uncomfortable?" Xiaoya asked worriedly.
"It's okay..." Wang Tong smiled and shook his head, putting away his thoughts, "Is there something wrong, mother?"
Xiaoling is his mother's personal maid. Generally, when Xiaoling comes to see him, it means that something is wrong with her mother.
"It's nothing, but miss, the young master is back." Xiaoling said happily, Wang Tong's brother is the pride of the palace.
"Brother is back?" Wang Tong was also a little surprised.
"Yes, yes."
Xiaoling nodded.
"Steward Wang told the young master about breaking off the engagement, and the young master said that he would personally go find Chen Lu to break off the engagement! So that he can no longer play rogue!
As long as the young master takes action, everything will be fine.
Moreover, the young master also said that there is a colleague in the court who is very good-looking and very talented. I hope that you, miss, can get along with...
Eh?
Miss, please slow down, wait for Xiaoling...
Miss....."
