Marrying Gold and Jade

No wonder Cao Shun was not by his side today. It turned out that he went to follow Ming Yuan for him.

Lin Ji really found different ways to prove to himself that Ming Yuan was a bad guy.

Time and time again, it disrupts my plans.

"He didn't steal it," she turned and said, "I gave it to him."

"Ayu." This call was even deeper.

His eyes captured the man, as if he was disappointed with his friend. "He has already confessed his crime and been executed. Do you still want to protect him?"

What confession, what shielding, it's clear that he is just causing trouble.

Originally, he could have safely held on to the money and waited for the man to come tomorrow, but now that Lin Ji had interfered, he had accomplished nothing.

"Why do you keep targeting him? Is it because I'm closer to him?"

She claimed that the incident of catching the person red-handed was targeted.

Lin Ji felt a breath rising to his chest. It was wrong to scold her, and it was even more wrong to swallow it.

"You are still young and kind-hearted, so you are most likely to be deceived by bad people."

"I told you, I gave him the things!"

Lin Yu insisted, "Besides, he is a mute, how could he deceive me? Those jewelry were pawned, who knows what he will do with the money, maybe he will buy me new jewelry?"

Rampant and messy.

It's so mind-numbing!

Lin Ji calmed down and asked again: "Then why did he admit to stealing?"

The girl pursed her red lips.

"I think... he's worried about my reputation," he then explained, "When I gave him the jewelry, he refused to accept it."

Mingyuan couldn't say anything and could only listen to her making up this lie with so many holes in it.

By the time he realized he was being followed, he had already entered the store with the things in his hands.

Should be more cautious.

Lin Yu keenly caught this bit of guilt, and shook her head gently at him.

Mingyuan did nothing wrong, the only problem was that someone was meddling in his affairs.

The person behind her didn't move for a long time, so she asked strangely, "Master Lin, can we leave now?"

He became Lord Lin again.

It was all for that servant again.

Lin Ji lowered his eyes and glanced at the disheveled man on the ground. He really couldn't figure out what ability he had to be able to charm Lin Yu, who was always so arrogant, into this state.

Without caring that he hadn't spoken yet, Lin Yu pushed the two bailiffs away and squatted down to untie the man.

The hemp rope was rough and was not a big deal when tied around Mingyuan, but it immediately cut her fingertips.

Blood beads oozed from the delicate white skin, reflecting in Lin Ji's eyes.

I still remember that just now, she took good care of her nails and was reluctant to peel lotus seeds even when she wanted to eat them, but she didn't even care about cutting her hands for a servant.

Really lost my mind.

Lin Yu didn't know what the knot was, and no one helped her. She got two cuts on her hands that she couldn't untie.

She looked up at the man above with resentment, only to see him reach out his hand and suddenly pick out an object from the pile of jewelry.

The red rope was wrapped around his slender fingertips, and the golden bell immediately made a sound.

Ming Yuan in front of him began to struggle, and the hemp rope left a deeper mark on his honey-colored wrist.

I gave it to him myself.

She also told people to keep it well, but now it was treated as stolen goods and fell into Lin Ji's hands.

"That's A Yuan's own thing!"

Lin Yu temporarily gave up trying to untie the hemp rope, stood up, and tried to get the bell back.

She stretched out her hand to grab it, "Give it back to him..."

Unexpectedly, Lin Ji's hand stretched forward, and she missed it, with half of her body shaking.

The man's other hand seemed to be prepared. He pressed her waist and made her fall steadily into his arms.

Except for Ming Yuan, everyone around him lowered their heads consciously.

The bitter sandalwood scent lingers.

When Lin Yu reacted, his whole body was enveloped by his aura.

"I know, you gave it to him." A low and slow male voice sounded in my ears.

Lin Yu put his hands on his chest, a feeling of embarrassment suddenly surged to his face, and he used his hands and feet to stand up straight, but did not escape the shackles of his arms.

The man's behavior was very abnormal. This was the second time today that he came to "hug" her.

"I also know that those things were given to him by you."

"Then you..." Lin Yu always felt that there was something else behind his words, "Why don't you return it to him quickly?"

Another laugh passed by my ear, the meaning of which was difficult to understand.

She watched the red rope being thrown back into Cao Shun's arms, her wrist tightened, and she was almost dragged out.

"what you do!"

Lin Yu couldn't break free and Ming Yuan was still tied inside.

"Let me go...Lin Ji, why are you crazy!"

Crazy?

Lin Ji really couldn't believe it, and memories of his youth came flooding back.

She was only three or four years old at that time, and she loved to tie her hair into two buns. In order to keep track of her movements, Ruan would attach a bell to the end of her hair.

Every time she ran into Qihe Hall, she would hear the ringing of bells first.

But she hadn't used it for a long time. When I heard it yesterday, I thought she was using an old item, but I didn't expect that she had actually given it to a servant.

Just a house slave.

How does he deserve it?

The noisy little girl was stuffed into the carriage, and Lin Ji hoped that he was overthinking it.

He instructed the people under the carriage: "The red curtain will accompany you."

As the sky gradually darkened, the two personal maids were frightened when they saw the situation. When they heard the call, Zhu Lian hurriedly stepped forward and answered yes.

The man next to him said nothing. Lin Yu lifted the car window curtain to see that it was not the way home.

"Where are you taking me?"

He didn't answer.

"Lin Ji, I'm talking to you."

She wasn't worried about what he would do to her, but Ming Yuan was still in his hands, and Lin Yu was even more unwilling to be manipulated by him.

After arguing for a long time, he produced a veil from somewhere and covered her face with it.

As he leaned closer, he said, "Remember to listen when you go in, and don't reveal your identity."

This was an ordinary farming family. There was a woman in her early forties in the family who often examined the injuries of female family members in the government office.

"Son!"

After hearing his intention, Zhu Lian knelt down hurriedly and said, "The girl and Ming Yuan are innocent, there is absolutely no such scandal!"

But no matter how she argued, the man remained unmoved.

"Whether it exists or not is up to you to decide."

And whether there is one or not, the servant cannot be kept.

Zhu Lian knew that he had no influence on his decision, and his daughter couldn't persuade him either, so he had to get up and go into the house to coax Lin Yu to suffer less.

After half a stick of incense.

The round-faced woman came out and knelt down and bowed to the people.

"Your Excellency, there are no external injuries on this girl."

Seeing the man looking at her with raised eyebrows, she consciously said, "She is also a perfect woman."

"Go back."

He was the only one outside the door. The woman walked respectfully about ten feet away before Cao Shun appeared and gave him the reward.

Soon Zhu Lian opened the door and whispered, "The girl is crying hard and says she doesn't want to see anyone."

Lin Ji was not surprised. He wanted to let her cry to her heart's content, but his mouth acted faster than his brain.

Asked Zhu Lian: "Have you put on your clothes?"

"It's all packed up."

Lin Ji pushed the door open and walked in.

The veil had already been torn off and thrown to the ground. Even though Lin Yu had been wronged before, she had never been humiliated like this. She allowed someone to strip off her dress and put his hands between her legs...

Hearing the footsteps outside the bed curtains and catching a glimpse of the man's figure, anger and shame surged up at the same time.
