After becoming a ghost, hold the boss's thigh tightly

Chapter 41: Flowers in the Mirror and Moon in the Water

As soon as I opened my eyes, the familiar face of my little friend Lin Shishan came into view in the morning light. He said with a mischievous smile: "You just woke up, you have to go back quickly!" I responded with a smile: "I know, Shitou!" In an instant, his full name - Lin Shishan, naturally emerged in my mind.

As the only daughter of the Fang family, Fang Wenyan, I, who was only eight years old, and Lin Shishan, the second son of the Lin family in the town, have been good friends since childhood. At this moment, we have quietly returned to the high walls of the Fang family. Shitou squatted down smartly and said with a smile: "Hurry up, I'll lift you up, otherwise you will be discovered and can't get out." I replied "OK" and stepped lightly on his shoulders (he stood firmly on the bench beside him).

As soon as I sat firmly on the wall, an unexpected figure came into my sight - it was the sixty-year-old grandfather who often leisurely admired the flowers in the garden. I deliberately raised my voice and joked: "Haha, Grandpa, are you here to enjoy the scenery too?" In fact, I was secretly reminding Shitou to take the opportunity to escape. Grandpa smiled and replied: "Yes, look at this beautiful scenery."

However, my "little trick" did not last long. Grandpa's expression suddenly changed, and he ordered the servant who was stunned beside him: "What are you still standing there for? Hurry up and take your young lady down safely."

On the other side of the wall, Shitou was about to run away, but was stopped by the servants. At this time, a handsome middle-aged man, my father Fang Wentian, suddenly appeared and stared at Shitou sternly, as if to say, "How dare you, boy, lead my daughter astray!"

Shitou saw this and hurriedly said with a smile, "Uncle Fang, what a coincidence." He obviously wanted to use this poor excuse to get away with it. But his father was not so easy to fool. He frowned and spoke with unquestionable majesty: "Who is your Uncle Fang? Your father told me to take you back when I see you. You haven't finished your homework yet!"

"No, uncle!" Shitou's face was filled with despair, as if the whole world had lost its color. In the end, he was "rescued" by the servants of the Lin family who arrived later and brought back to the Lin family.

Back in the boudoir, the gentle but slightly stern voice of my mother Zhang Wenmei rang in my ears. She patiently taught me to be a quiet girl and not to run around. I said, "I know, mother." But in my heart I was thinking: How is Shitou now? Has he been arrested and forced to study hard? It's a pity that I can't see his bitter and helpless face with my own eyes. Thinking of this, I couldn't help but laugh.

Seeing this, my mother asked in confusion, "Yan'er, what are you laughing at? Were you listening to what I just said?" I quickly stopped smiling and nodded in response, "I listened, yes, don't worry, mother." But the curiosity and worry about the stone in my heart, like the grass in spring, quietly took root and sprouted in my heart.

"Haha, it's nothing, mother. I just thought of some funny things." Wen Yan concealed her inner smile, but her eyes could not help but drift towards the window, as if she could penetrate the high wall and see Shi Tou who was working hard at the moment.

Zhang Wenmei gently stroked Wen Yan's hair, with a hint of reproach in her tenderness: "Yan'er, you are the apple of the Fang family's eye, and you must behave properly. Mother knows that you have a good relationship with Shi Tou, but a girl should always behave like a girl and not always think about running away, understand?"

Wen Yan nodded obediently, but her mind was racing: "Mom, I know. It's just that Shitou...he is really funny sometimes. When I play with him, I can't help but laugh."

Zhang Wenmei heard this, a hint of helplessness and doting flashed in her eyes: "You are really a child who never grows up. However, Shitou is indeed a smart child, but his family has high expectations of him and the academic pressure is not small. If you really want to help him, you might as well encourage him to study hard, so that he can have a promising future."

Wen Yan's eyes lit up, as if she had found a new interest: "Really? Then I can write him a letter and tell him some study methods or words of encouragement. Mother, do you think this is a good idea?"

Zhang Wenmei smiled and nodded: "Of course, this will not only show your concern, but also help him grow. However, remember to keep a proper distance. After all, there are differences between men and women. You are still young, and many things need to be measured."

Wen Yan nodded heavily, and she had already started thinking about how to write the first letter to Shitou. She had to express her concern, but not be too straightforward. She also had to make it interesting so that he would be happy and motivated to study. At this moment, she seemed to have seen Shitou's surprised and touched expression after receiving the letter, and she couldn't help but smile again.

Lin Shishan and Fang Wenyan have been childhood sweethearts since they were young. As they grow older, this pure friendship quietly takes root in their hearts, but they have never expressed it to each other.

In the blink of an eye, Fang Wenyan has grown into a 16-year-old girl. Her beauty and the status and wealth of the Fang family have made her the dream lover of many young talents in the town. However, in Fang Wenyan's heart, there is only Lin Shishan.

On this day, Fang Wenyan changed into men's clothes, with a hint of mischief and expectation, she climbed over the wall and wanted to give Lin Shishan a surprise. She came to the restaurant in the town, thinking about how to appear in front of Lin Shishan and give him an unforgettable memory.

The restaurant was bustling with people, Fang Wenyan skillfully shuttled through the crowd and finally found Lin Shishan who was chatting and laughing with his friends. She approached quietly and was about to call out, but unexpectedly a misunderstanding quietly took place.

It turned out that Zhao Zixuan, a man with gorgeous clothes and extraordinary temperament, accidentally walked into the conversation between Lin Shishan and his friend, and the two sides had a dispute over the different evaluation of a dish. Fang Wenyan watched with relish, but she never thought that this dispute would become more complicated because of her.

During the argument, Fang Wenyan accidentally tripped and her body swayed, causing her hair to fall apart instantly. Her long, black and shiny hair cascaded down like a waterfall, instantly attracting the attention of everyone in the room, including Zhao Zixuan. He was stunned, with a flash of surprise and confusion in his eyes, as if time had stopped at this moment.

Seeing this, Lin Shishan hurried forward to help Fang Wenyan up, his eyes full of concern and reproach. He gently reproached: "Yan'er, why are you so careless?" Fang Wenyan's cheeks flushed slightly, feeling embarrassed and annoyed. She didn't expect that her outfit would be so easily seen through.

Zhao Zixuan, after a brief moment of daze, suddenly spoke with a barely perceptible tenderness in his voice: "Miss, I'm so sorry that the argument just now may have disturbed you. I'm Zhao Zixuan from the Zhao family. May I know your name, young lady?"

Fang Wenyan was about to explain, but Lin Shishan beat her to the punch: "She is Fang Wenyan from the Fang family, my childhood sweetheart. She was just joking with us just now."

Zhao Zixuan's eyes flashed with mixed emotions when he heard this. He didn't expect that this woman who made him fall in love at first sight was actually Lin Shishan's childhood sweetheart. But he didn't give up, but became more determined.

"I see. Miss Fang is so beautiful. No wonder Master Lin is so nervous." Zhao Zixuan said with a smile, "In fact, I came here today to propose to Master Lin, but now it seems that there is a more suitable candidate."

When these words came out, not only Fang Wenyan was stunned, but also Lin Shishan was stunned. Fang Wenyan quickly explained: "Mr. Zhao misunderstood, Mr. Lin and I are just good friends, nothing else."

But Zhao Zixuan didn't seem to be ready to give up. He continued, "It doesn't matter whether it's a misunderstanding or not. What matters is that I fell in love with Miss Fang at first sight. I am willing to propose to the Fang family with my sincerity and hope that Miss Fang can give me a chance."

Fang Wenyan looked at Zhao Zixuan's serious expression, feeling mixed emotions. She was grateful for Zhao Zixuan's honesty and courage, but also worried that her relationship with Lin Shishan would be affected. Lin Shishan looked at her silently, with both worry and trust in his eyes.

Finally, Fang Wenyan took a deep breath and decided to face this sudden challenge head-on. "Mr. Zhao, I have received your feelings, but marriage is no joke. I need time to consider it." Although her words were light, they revealed an unquestionable firmness.

Zhao Zixuan smiled slightly when he heard this, and he didn't seem to be in a hurry to get an answer. "Okay, I'll wait for you. I believe that one day, you will see my goodness." After saying this, he turned and left, leaving behind the discussion and speculation of the crowd.

After returning home, Wen Yan gradually uncovered Zhao Wenxuan's true colors through various inquiries. She was shocked to find that he already had a concubine and was so indulgent before officially marrying a wife, completely disregarding propriety and integrity. What's more, as the only son in the family, he was spoiled since childhood and his character was full of selfishness and arrogance.

Wen Yan felt mixed emotions. She recalled the time when Zhao Wenxuan proposed to the Fang family. At that time, the Fang family rejected him due to their family background. Now it seemed that was a blessing. But she also knew that this blessing could not protect the Fang family for a long time.

After Lin Shishan learned all this, he was filled with anger and self-blame. He clenched his fists and said indignantly: "If I had known that he was such a person, I would never have let Yan'er have anything to do with him! It's too late to say anything now, I must go see Yan'er!" After that, he turned and ran towards the Wen Mansion.

At this time, Wen Yan was sitting in front of the window, her heart full of doubts and uneasiness. Suddenly, there was a light knock on the window. "Who?" she asked alertly. A familiar voice came: "It's me!" Hearing this voice, Wen Yan's face showed a little surprise, but more joy. She hurriedly opened the window, ready to let him in. However, Shi Shan stopped her and said, "No, I'll talk, and you just listen."

Shi Shan took a deep breath and said slowly: "Yan'er, I have been studying hard these years, half of which is because my father once asked me if I liked you. At that time, I denied it, but in fact, I have already fallen deeply in love with you in my heart. From the first time I visited your house and saw your cute and lovely appearance standing on the tree, I was attracted to you. Later, through our correspondence, I gradually understood my feelings and liked you more and more. Therefore, I decided to give you a better life, so I concentrated on studying, hoping to become the number one scholar and make you the number one scholar's wife."

Wen Yan listened quietly, with tears of emotion in her eyes. She had never thought that Shi Shan had such deep feelings for her, and she also liked Shi Shan. At this moment, she felt extremely happy, and was also moved by Shi Shan's efforts and persistence.

The other side of the restaurant was the first time they met since their last separation. He had imagined countless times whether her appearance had changed, but when he actually saw her, he found that she was far more beautiful and more attractive than he had imagined.

When he heard Zhao Wenxuan proposed to her, he felt very uncomfortable, fearing that she would really like Wenxuan. So he began to ask around about Wenxuan, trying to comfort himself and give himself an excuse to find Yan'er.

Finally, he found an opportunity, came to Yan'er, and said nervously: "Yan'er, Wenxuan is not suitable to be your husband. He is too philandering. As the only son in the family, he grew up being spoiled!"

Lin Shishan stood outside the window, and under the cover of the moonlight, he looked at Wen Yan inside the window nervously and affectionately. Wen Yan gently pushed open the window frame, revealing only half of her face, with complex emotions flashing in her eyes.

"Yan'er, I..." Lin Shishan's voice trembled slightly. He tried to calm his inner excitement and anxiety, fearing that his words would disturb the beauty inside the window. "I'm just worried about you. I'm worried that you will be deceived by Zhao Wenxuan's sweet words. He is not the kind man you imagined."

Wen Yan felt a surge of warmth in her heart when she heard this, but she also felt a little sad. She bit her lip gently, her eyes full of gratitude and helplessness. "Shi Shan, thank you for caring about me so much. In fact, I have also realized that Wen Xuan... may not be suitable for me. But you also know that marriage is often beyond one's control."

Lin Shishan's heart tightened when he heard this. He was eager to comfort Wen Yan, but he was afraid that his words would hurt her. "Yan'er, don't say that. Although marriage is important, your happiness is more important. If you don't want to, no one can force you. I... I will always be by your side, supporting you and protecting you."

Wen Yan's eyes could not help but turn red as she listened to Lin Shishan's words. She held back her tears and smiled at him outside the window. "Shishan, I am already very satisfied with what you said. At least in this world, there are still people who are willing to care about me and give for me. I will think about it carefully and will not let myself fall into misfortune easily."

On that quiet night, the moonlight fell gently on the window lattice like a fine yarn, casting a soft glow on the lovers who were looking at each other through the window. Although Lin Shishan and Wen Yan's hearts were separated by the window frame, they seemed to be able to feel each other's deepest throbbing and warmth.

Lin Shishan took a deep breath, mustered up his courage, and his eyes flashed with unprecedented determination and tenderness. "Yan'er, do you know? From the first time I saw you, my heart was deeply attracted to you. Your every frown and smile touched my emotions. I know that I may not be the most perfect person, but I am willing to become a better person for you. I hope you can understand that my heart belongs only to you."

Wen Yan listened to Lin Shishan's confession, and her heart was filled with indescribable emotion and happiness. She gently raised her hand and touched the window frame with her fingertips, as if she could feel Lin Shishan's warmth. "Shishan, I feel the same way. I see your concern and your efforts, and I remember them in my heart. In this complicated world, it is my greatest luck to have someone who treats me sincerely like you. I am willing to go through every spring, summer, autumn and winter with you in the future."

The two smiled at each other, without saying anything, they knew each other's intentions. Although they were separated by a window, their souls seemed to be tightly embracing each other, resisting the noise and disturbance of the outside world together. At this moment, all the concerns and worries disappeared, leaving only two hearts tightly connected, guarding this hard-earned love together.

The moonlight continued to fall quietly, weaving one beautiful dream after another for the lovers.

On the other side, the Zhao family came to propose marriage but was rejected by the Fang family. "I can't marry my daughter to the Zhao family. I would rather choose the Lin family than the Zhao family!" said the head of the Fang family.

"They won't give up! Otherwise, ask your daughter about her opinion on the Lin family and make a decision as soon as possible to avoid unnecessary delays!" Mrs. Fang

"Ma'am, you are absolutely right! I will go and discuss it with Lin Batian right away, and you go and ask your daughter." After saying this, the head of the Fang family left the house.

This scene appeared in a mirror with rippling water. An evil man was watching with interest. If you looked carefully, you could tell that he was Qing Ci!
