During the Lantern Festival in the capital, even the secluded alleys were hung with lanterns. Although there were not many, they were enough for Xie Wu to recognize the person standing under the lanterns.
Under the dim yellow lanterns, Lu Zhan stood tall in a dark cloak, his narrow eyes full of smiles.
Seeing Xie Wu come out, he raised his feet and walked towards her slowly. Under her gaze, he raised his hand to take off the cloak on his body and wrapped it around Xie Wu.
Xie Wu didn't show any resistance to his move. She allowed Lu Zhan to tie the cloak for her carefully but clumsily.
This was the first time since her rebirth that she was so close to Lu Zhan, so close that even through the thick clothes, she could still hear the steady and powerful heartbeat of his chest.
In an instant, countless broken memory fragments rushed towards her crazily.
Xie Wu's chest suddenly tightened, and before she could react, she had already reached out and held Lu Zhan's hand, which was tying her cloak.
The noise in the distance was now blocked out.
For a moment, the world was silent.
Only the heavy breathing and rapid heartbeat were clearly audible.
"Ah Wu..." Lu Zhan's voice was low and hoarse, and there was a faint flame dancing in his dark eyes.
The sound of "Ah Wu" pulled Xie Wu out of her memory. Her face suddenly turned cold, and she withdrew her hand holding Lu Zhan with a "swish".
Xie Wu took two steps back, then lowered her head and saluted Lu Zhan. After the salute, she raised her eyes and said to Lu Zhan with a cold face, "Second Young Master Lu, thank you very much for today's incident."
The warmth from when she held him still seemed to remain in her hands, but...
Looking at Xie Wu's deserted face, the little bit of luck left in Lu Zhan's heart was completely shattered.
Jue Yuan, this old liar!
For his words to treat Haihe Qingyan in the world, he would regret it in his heart. He spent all his efforts and was tied to that position and worked conscientiously for more than ten years. The last thing he expected...
But fortunately, no matter what, she still stood in front of him alive.
As for the rest, he believes the future is bright.
He had plenty of time to make her change his mind.
Thinking of this, Lu Zhan quickly organized his thoughts.
"Is everything arranged properly inside?" Lu Zhan smiled softly and returned to his usual gentle and jade-like appearance.
Xie Wu nodded.
Just as she nodded, a burst of noise suddenly sounded outside.
"It's gone! It's gone!"
Not far away, I saw a fire light up, and for a moment, the crowd's panicked screams and calls for help were all mixed together.
But neither Xie Wu nor Lu Zhan stood in the alley, nor did their expressions change at all.
In the end, it was Lu Zhan who spoke first. He said with a smile, "It was Suiyu who probably set the fire. She is the best at this."
Xie Wu looked at Lu Zhan and said nothing.
She really couldn't understand Lu Zhan. At this point, did he still need to pretend in front of her?
Looking at Xie Wu's cold eyes, Lu Zhan sighed helplessly in his heart. He pursed his lips and said softly, "Wu, if you have anything to ask, just ask."
After hearing what Lu Zhan said, Xie Wu finally showed her first smile when the two met, "Why don't you, Mr. Lu, ask first?"
I'm afraid Lu Zhan has already found out what trump cards she has, and few people in the world except himself can know Lu Zhan's trump cards.
Ah Wu was really... to him.
As alert as ever.
"Since Awu, you said so, then, okay... when did you know that Suiyu was the person I inserted?" Lu Zhan looked at Xie Wu with a smile.
"I knew it from the beginning." Xie Wu answered with raised eyebrows.
Lu Zhan nodded.
After waiting for a while, Lu Zhan didn't speak again, and Xie Wu's eyes finally moved.
"You don't have anything else to ask?" Xie Wu raised her eyebrows.
Lu Zhan smiled and shook his head.
Xie Wu's eyes gradually became serious.
He didn't need to ask anything, whether it was a representative, in fact, he already knew everything...
So, what about her rebirth?
Little donor, there is a saying in the Buddha's saying that when one thought arises in the mind, millions of barrier doors will open. Everything in the world is illusory, so you must keep your original mind.
Master Jueyuan's words suddenly rang in her ears, and she suddenly remembered that Lu Zhan seemed to have a close relationship with Master Jueyuan. Could it be...
Master Jueyuan saw her origin and told Lu Zhan about it?
if it is like this……
Then Lu Zhan's completely different attitude towards her makes everything clear.
Seeing Xie Wu's eyes getting darker and darker, Lu Zhan knew that she must have gone astray, so he hurriedly said, "Then if I ask you, how did you know that Suiyu is mine? Will you answer?"
Xie Wu raised her slender eyebrows slightly again, but she did not answer.
Lu Zhan smiled lightly and said, "Look, even if I ask, you won't answer, so why should I ask for trouble." At this point, Lu Zhan paused slightly, and then he
He curled his lips, looked at Xie Wu with burning eyes and continued, "And, I believe that one day, you will be willing to tell me this yourself."
"I'm afraid I will disappoint Second Young Master Lu." Xie Wu curled her lips and looked at Lu Zhan coldly.
Regardless of whether what Lu Zhan said was true or not, since he chose not to ask, there was no need for her to rush to expose her shortcomings in front of him.
"It doesn't matter, I'm willing to wait." Lu Zhan said with a smile.
Xie Wu curved her lips and smiled, and her eyes suddenly became vivid, "Since Mr. Lu has nothing to ask, is it my turn to ask?"
Lu Zhan raised his hand and smiled, "Sister Wu, please tell me."
Xie Wu frowned and glanced at Lu Zhan.
Who is your sister!
But then I thought about business, and at that moment, I had no choice but to put aside the unhappiness in my heart.
"Why did you send the broken jade to the Hou Mansion?" Xie Wu looked directly at Lu Zhan and asked.
"Because of you." Lu Zhan looked at Xie Wu with burning eyes and smiled.
Xie Wu's slender eyelashes trembled slightly.
Therefore, he really knows his origin...
Or maybe he just had suspicions, and now he is confirming his suspicions?
But if Lu Zhan really knows her origin, how will she deal with it?
Fighting against Lu Zhan...
She wasn't sure.
At this moment, countless thoughts flashed through Xie Wu's mind.
"So, what does Second Young Master Lu want from me? Or... Is there anything you can use about me or the Marquis of Wu'an Mansion?" Xie Wu raised her eyes and looked at Lu Zhan again.
"If I said no... Come to think of it, you wouldn't believe it." Looking at Xie Wu with burning eyes, Lu Zhan couldn't help but curled his lips and smiled. Seeing that Xie Wu still looked at him indifferently, looking unmoved.
As if moving, Lu Zhan finally put away the smile on his face, "Now, I really don't need anything from you or the Wu'an Houfu. As for the future... who can know what will happen in the future."
When Lu Zhan said this, a bit of bitterness unconsciously escaped from the corner of his mouth.
Xie Wu frowned slightly. She didn't understand. At this time, Lu Zhan, a young man in bright clothes and an angry horse, scolded Fang Qiu. Where did his bitterness come from?
"However, I'm surprised by one thing." Just when Xie Wu was confused, Lu Zhan curled his lips and smiled, and said, "Since you knew that Suiyu was mine, you resolutely used her, especially today.
...You are deliberately trying to lure me here through broken jade! Ah Wu, what do you want to say to me?"
Tell me what your purpose is in placing Broken Jade in the Hou Mansion.
Tell me what your plans are for the Marquis Wu'an Mansion.
Tell me whether you realize that you are a person who has died and been resurrected.
She had a lot to say and ask, but when she really stood in front of Lu Zhan, she couldn't ask anything.
If, he said yes...
So what should she do?
It turned out that she was still not ready to confess everything to Lu Zhan.
Seeing Xie Wu pursed her lips and remained silent, Lu Zhan sighed quietly, "Awu, if you have nothing to say to me, then, now, can you listen to me?"
Xie Wu's delicate eyebrows flashed.
She didn't speak, but her gleaming phoenix eyes kept staring at Lu Zhan.
Lu Zhan took a deep breath, gathered his thoughts, and finally met Xie Wu's eyes again, "Awu, actually I..."
"girl."
Just as Lu Zhan opened his mouth, a voice suddenly fell from the sky and interrupted his words.
It's broken jade.
Suiyu jumped down from the wall and saw that Lu Zhan was also there. Suiyu, who didn't know that her identity had been exposed a long time ago, hesitated for a moment because she really didn't know whether she should step forward to say hello to her 'former master'
.
It was Xie Wu who broke the embarrassment first and said, "Everything has been taken care of."
Suiyu hurriedly replied, "Yes, everything has been taken care of."
Xie Wu nodded, "Are you envious of the moon?"
"Xianyue is waiting for the girl in the alley outside." Suiyu replied again. She paused and saw that neither Xie Wu nor Lu Zhan had the intention to speak again, so she took a deep breath and mustered up her courage.
He reminded the two of them, "Girl, Lu...Second Young Master Lu, it's almost time."
"Then take your girl back. Remember, be careful on the way so that no one discovers you." Lu Zhan said.
Sui Yu looked at Lu Zhan in surprise.
She didn't understand why the master would say such things to her in front of the girl? Isn't he afraid of arousing the girl's suspicion?
Although Suiyu was thinking this, she still lowered her head and responded honestly, "Yes, I will be careful."
Lu Zhan nodded. He raised his eyes and looked at Xie Wu again, "Awu, what kind of outcome do you want in this matter?"
Normally, Xie Wu would not have answered Lu Zhan's question at all, but now, for some reason, her brain suddenly twitched and she blurted out, "Will you give me whatever result I want?"
Suddenly a smile appeared at the corner of Lu Zhan's mouth. The smile grew more and more, and finally spread to his entire face. He stared at Xie Wu with a smile, and his deep voice slowly sounded in the dark night, "
I will. Ah Wu, this time, no matter what you want, I will fulfill it for you."
In a daze, something seemed to be thrown into the lake of her heart. Although there was no splash or even any consciousness, Xie Wu knew that something was vaguely different.
Lu Zhan...
"Girl, it's almost time. If it's later... I'm afraid someone will find out the flaw." Seeing that Xie Wu had been standing still, Suiyu couldn't help but remind her in a low voice.
"Let's go." Xie Wu glanced at Lu Zhan one last time, then looked at Suiyu with an indifferent expression and said two words, then turned and walked out of the alley.
The moonlight poured down from the sky, and finally it all shattered on her body. She walked step by step towards the bright place with the moonlight all over her body, and gradually left his world...
Ah Wu.
In this life, I will never let you leave me again.
