smile to heart

=====================

"Brother Jingyao."

A gentle and shy voice came.Mu Yun and Qi Zhong both looked for their reputation, and found that it was the Miss Lu family who came with her personal maid.After confirming their identities, the two looked away at the same time, their expressions slightly dull.

Qi Zhong was on the top of the tree, separated a little far away, and could only see the backs of the three of them approaching gradually, and regret suddenly felt in his heart: Why didn't we go down one step earlier just now?Now even if I want to leave, I can't go. Once I get off the tree, it will attract the attention of these people.

"Hey." Qi Zhong had no choice but to wait for the opportunity, and slipped away quietly while the two were chatting happily.

Out of politeness, Mu Yun returned the greeting lightly.

Then, out of respect for the woman in her boudoir, she took the initiative to give up this quiet place and prepared to leave by mistake.

Seeing that he was leaving, Lu Shutong's mood fluctuated instantly: "Brother Jingyao, wait."

Mu Yun stopped patiently: "Miss Lu, what are your orders?"

Lu Shutong was overjoyed, and knew that this man's obedience and obedience made him even more aggressive: "Oh. There are too many people in the forest ahead, and I feel bored, so I come here to get some air. I didn't expect you, Brother Jingyao, Also, such a clever fate, why don't we talk about the conversation and go back?"

"But..." Mu Yun frowned hesitantly.

But Lu Shutong couldn't help explaining the topic: "Actually, I'm here to ask brother Jingyao about some piano skills..."

Qi Zhong covered his ears, not wanting to pay attention to the fiery situation of the two chatting, and his heart became more and more irritable, which made him finally make up his mind to quickly escape from this noisy mountain forest.

After climbing the branches next to him, Qi finally found a good angle, and carefully climbed down the tree with his back facing the three of them.

Just when he was about to slip down another tree trunk, Qi Zhong suddenly heard the sound of "hissing—" and couldn't help but look up. It turned out to be a brightly colored green bamboo leaf, which was spitting out a letter and staring at him fiercely.

Immediately he was startled, and Qi Zhong was afraid of snakes to the bottom of his heart.One limb became weak, and with an ah, he fell from the top of the tree.

Here, Lu Shutong was narcissistically chatting with Mu Yun and got carried away, but was startled by the sudden cry, and hurriedly seized the opportunity to hide behind Mu Yun, weak like a rabbit.

Unexpectedly, before climbing up to a piece of Mu Yun's clothes, he had already rushed under the tree that made the sound.

Seeing this, Su'e panicked and said, "Miss, look, it's that person. He wasn't eavesdropping on your speech just now, was he?"

Lu Shutong felt that it was reasonable, and frowned in dissatisfaction.

"hiss--"

The palm of his hand was scratched a little, Qi Zhong blew lightly twice, and was about to get up and leave.

When he looked up, he found that Mu Yun was already standing in front of him, his eyes were worried, and the supporting hand was subconsciously handed over to him.

Qi Zhong was stunned for a moment, surprised for a moment, and was about to grab his hand and stand up, when another yell of interruption came from behind Mu Yun.

"Brother Jingyao..."

Lu Shutong hurried over to find out.

At this time, Mu Yun frowned faintly, and stretched out his hand silently.

Qi Zhong's smile froze slightly, and a faint grievance appeared in his drooping eyes.

The two masters and servants followed me like dogs, and they were quite surprised to see this scene.

Qi Zhong pursed his lips, stood up by himself, and patted the embarrassing ashes on his clothes.

Mu Yun was speechless, turned and left.

The focus was gone, and the remaining three remained in place, which was even more embarrassing.Lu Shutong was so angry that he finally got the opportunity to be alone, and before he had a good chat with the person he admired, he was disturbed by this inexplicable miscellaneous thing.

She glared at Qi Zhong, her face darkened, as if some ugly words were brewing in her throat.

Qi Zhong didn't intend to disturb at first, but at the moment he was treated inexplicably coldly, he was also upset, and didn't want to deal with anyone more, so he nodded politely and prepared to leave.

At this time, Su'e stood up for the Lord and ordered: "Stop."

"I don't know if my lady is still here? Did you disturb someone without even an apology?"

Is this wild forest planted by your family?Still bothering?I don't know who it is.

I really wanted to retaliate, but Qi finally endured his emotions and didn't make any fuss with the woman.

He turned around and said kindly: "I didn't eavesdrop on your speech. I didn't mean to disturb you. Farewell."

"But he left because of you..."

Lu Shutong hit the nail on the head, causing Qi Zhong to pause again before leaving.

"I came for him, but he left because of you...Young master, why don't you think about it?"

Looking at the person bluntly, Lu Shutong's expression became even more displeased.

Qi Zhong remained silent, lowering his brows, as if deep in thought.

"Hi. Are you educated? My lady is asking you something."

Seeing that the person didn't reply for a long time, Su'e complained on behalf of the master.

Qi Zhong closed his eyes, and said in a slightly disappointed tone, "I don't know. Miss Lu is so interested in the answer, you can ask him directly."

"you!"

The ignorant answer made Lu Shutong angry from embarrassment, and his dignified and generous temperament fell to the ground.

She sarcastically said: "You really know how to pretend. Can you fool the world's ears by saying that you don't know? Why don't you think about yourself, what did you do in Fufeng not long ago? It made Brother Jingyao not want to see you so much... "

With a sharp stab in the heart, the old matter was brought up again by outsiders, showing that it had become an open knot between the two of them.

Qi Zhong mistook it for this, and his downcast eyes became more serious.He never thought that his temporary dementia behavior would bring harm to the people he cared about, and never thought that the breakdown of the relationship between the two would become a casual satirical talk for outsiders.

For a moment, he felt the helplessness of not being able to retaliate after being slandered by others, Qi Zhong was stunned and lost his mind.

However, Lu Shutong thought that he was stubborn, and deliberately used silence to avoid mistakes, so he assigned himself an identity, which meant to teach others.

"I won't explain some things, you know it in your heart. Even if the Immortal Venerable didn't embarrass Brother Jingyao, your actions have already made Brother Jingyao see your face clearly. Whether it's jealousy or clinging, early It’s better to restrain these thoughts.”

"What do you mean?" Qi Zhong regained his senses, listening to her words seemed to be biased against the facts.

Lu Shutong raised a sideways glance: "There is a difference between superiority and inferiority, and people must have self-knowledge. Now that the aristocratic family unites to rule the world, it is hereditary. You are just a disciple with a different surname from Changting Immortal Sect. A closed door disciple is a bit of a talking point, but compared to the status of the Jiugai Mountain Immortal Venerable, it is still too humble..."

"...I'm really embarrassing that idiot. I just heard you say so many superficial nonsense."

Lu Shutong was even more annoyed when he heard him sneer and retort: ​​"What? Did you poke your sore spot?"

"You don't know Mu Yun at all." Qi Zhong replied calmly, confidently.

"Okay. Whatever you want to talk nonsense, I'm just reminding you, it's up to you to listen. Anyway, it's not me that Brother Jingyao didn't want to see just now."

Lu Shutong saw that he couldn't refute, so he stepped on someone's wound and sarcastically, his sneering eyes were full of pettiness.

But the facts were in front of his eyes, Qi Zhong gritted his teeth, his heart hurt like salt, and left lonely.

As soon as she saw the person leave, Su'e fanned the flames: "Miss taught me that a ruffian like this..."

On the boulevard, Min Zhi and Lin Weier finished fetching water and were walking back talking and laughing.

Suddenly seeing an aggressive figure rushing past him, Min Zhi felt quite familiar, and turned around and shouted: "Hey, Rascal Qi, where are you going? The water is coming back..."

"..."

The man was so busy running that he didn't have time to reply to her.

Min Zhi stood there depressed, and asked Lin Weier beside him, "Hey, what's wrong with him?"

Lin Weier also shook his head worriedly: "I don't know."

"Forget it. Wait for him to come back later, and ask again."

Shrugging his shoulders, Min Zhi didn't think it was a big deal, he just thought it was Qi Zhong who ran too fast and couldn't hear her calling him clearly.

After walking for a while, the two returned to Tonghua Forest.

When everyone saw the water coming back, they all rushed to grab it.

Min Zhi picked up one of her own pots, leaned to the side, and quietly watched a group of lazy people looting like vicious dogs.

Just about to drink water, Min Zhi couldn't help but glanced at the secluded side of the forest, and found Lu Shutong and Mu Yun chatting awkwardly on the side, feeling bad luck.

Thinking of Lu Shutong's bragging and vain appearance at the Hundred Flowers Meeting where the socialites gathered in Shangjiang, Min Zhi rolled her eyes and said with a sneer, "Miss Qianjin? You just know how to hang around men. No bones."

After complaining, Min Zhi took a few more steps, preferring to go back to the depths of the crowd than to meet some unsightly things.

At this time, someone beside him began to break his mouth.

"Oh, you guys are coming back late. The show is gone."

When the people who went to fetch water heard this, they all leaned over happily: "What's the fun?"

The man said again: "Just now, Miss Lu's family taught Changting Daofeizi's disciple a lesson."

"Ah? What's the matter?"

"It's not that this kid is delaying the case of the third son in Fufeng. Who doesn't know that Miss Lu is devoted to the third son, so of course she wants to make a statement."

Those who came back from fetching water all expressed their opinions after hearing the whole story.

"It's time to scold this bastard. He procrastinates when life is at stake. He's so heartless."

"That's right. If the third son can close the case earlier, we don't have to suffer in this forest."

"You have to blame yourself, you deserve to be scolded."

"Hey, everyone. Although Mr. Qi did something wrong, Ms. Lu is not the one who caused the incident. She overstepped and taught others, which actually deepened the conflict..."

"Hiss, it makes sense, it makes sense."

"Hey. If you think too much, the children of the aristocratic family should be more arrogant and teach the outsiders a lesson. Changting's Immortal Mansion won't mind."

"Well, yes."

……

Min Zhi, who was at the side, was hesitant for a while, and finally heard her Ni Lin, and threw the kettle over with his backhand, swirling around and slapping the faces of those who said bad things, before the kettle fell to the ground.

"Enough said?"

The few people who had been severely beaten by Fei Lai were full of resentment and wanted to find out the murderer and hold them accountable, but when they heard a roar of anger, they both confirmed their eyes: they are people who cannot be offended.

Min Zhi sneered in disdain, and walked in front of those people forcefully.

"All the old men, their mouths are quite broken. When you are critical of others, are you being yourself again? You are all noble and shrewd, and the others are muddy and can't support the wall?"

Everyone was silent and did not dare to reply to Min Zhi's words. Firstly, they felt ashamed, and secondly, because Biao Miss Tangmen lost her temper, basically no one dared to persuade her.

Seeing that they were silent, Min Zhi became even more furious, grabbed the instigator just now and fell to the ground, growling impatiently.

"You tell me. Tell me what that Miss Lu family scolded Qi Zhong just now."

Under coercion, the man had no choice but to finish the part he remembered.

The more Min Zhi listened, the angrier she became, every word and every word stepped on her barbs, remembering the memory of some people mocking her with respect and inferiority when she first came to Tangmen, she suddenly felt the same.

Leaving that person aside, Min Zhi rushed towards the place where the two were chatting and laughing.
