Dressed as the villain's stepmother

"Don't think about it that way. I'm talking about the identity of the person who sent this invitation."

Jiang Lianzhu's words were a little helpless. She curled her fingers slightly and tapped Liu Qingqing's forehead.

"What are you thinking about?"

"Tch, it's obvious that the shopkeeper is overthinking it. I didn't know what I wanted to say just now, so you just kept thinking about it."

Liu Qingqing was very stubborn about things so far. After retorting, he said no more and directly changed the topic.

"By the way, if I remember correctly, that Xue Yin seems to be the eldest son of the Prime Minister's Mansion. Didn't he already send gifts to the shopkeeper before? Why is he inviting the shopkeeper to enjoy the flowers now?"

Jiang Lianzhu put the invitation aside and glanced at Liu Qingqing helplessly.

"How can I guess what he is thinking, but looking at what is written on this invitation, it should be related to the errand he just got."

Liu Qingqing responded meaningfully, and then said nothing else.

Jiang Lianzhu tidied up the things in the shop and originally planned to go back. Just as she was about to leave, Liao Yunchuan suddenly walked in from outside.

"What's wrong? Is it possible that you have trouble with me this late at night?"

Jiang Lianzhu raised her eyebrows inaudibly.

Liao Yunchuan rarely comes to see him on weekdays, let alone at this time.

"There is indeed something I want to tell you." Liao Yunchuan winked at Jiang Lianzhu.

Jiang Lianzhu immediately and understandingly ordered the boys beside her: "You go home and rest first. Master Liao and I still have some official matters to discuss."

"Yes." The boys responded and left quietly without disturbing the two of them at all.

"Okay, now there are only two of us in this hospital. What you want to say is so shameful that it must be said in private."

Jiang Lianzhu crossed her arms and asked slightly curiously.

"This is not a particularly important matter." Liao Yunchuan's sudden change of subject made Jiang Lianzhu even more confused.

"I just heard that Xue Yin specially asked someone to send you an invitation in the morning. What is written on the invitation is that he wants to invite you to enjoy the flowers together?"

Liao Yunchuan asked immediately, and without waiting for Jiang Lianzhu to give any answer, he continued on his own.

"If the two of you are going to enjoy the flowers, I naturally have no objection, but I should be credited with a share of the credit for that matter. If Xue Yin only thanks you but doesn't come to thank me, it would be a little bit to me. It’s a little unfair.”

What he said was so unreasonable and unreasonable that Jiang Lianzhu almost dropped her jaw in shock.

Liao Yunchuan didn't like to worry about these little things on weekdays, but today he actually talked about these things to himself for some unknown reason.

"Mr. Liao took the wrong medicine today? You're so lucky that you actually stepped in to take care of these things." Jiang Lianzhu's eyes were a bit narrow, "But are you sure you are interested in flower viewing? If not, then that's fine. Just don’t force it.”

"Of course I'm interested. It's not a bad idea to cultivate your sentiments once in a while."

Liao Yunchuan answered fluently and did not pause for a moment when he said this.

"Okay, now that you've said it all, I'll take you with me when I go to the appointment tomorrow."

Jiang Lianzhu answered very readily.

The next day.

Xue Yin specially sent a carriage to pick him up.

When he watched Jiang Lianzhu step onto the carriage, the corner of his mouth raised a slight arc. When Liao Yunchuan followed closely, the smile on his face disappeared immediately.

"Why is Master Liao here?" Xue Yin spoke with a trembling tone.

Deep down in his heart, he was still a little afraid of Liao Yunchuan, and now he was staring at him inexplicably with unfriendly eyes, which made people feel even more at a loss.

"Since I want to thank the person who exposed the Prime Minister's crimes to Your Majesty, naturally the young prince cannot just thank Jiang Lianzhu and leave me alone."

Liao Yunchuan answered in an understatement, and when he said this, he was also well-founded, making it impossible for people to find any fault at all.

"If you insist on inviting Jiang Lianzhu alone, then I have to tell you whether your thoughts and intentions are impure."

He then added that Xue Yin didn't know how to respond for a moment and could only apologize again and again.

"This matter is indeed something I didn't think carefully about. I hope you won't blame me. This situation will definitely not happen again in the future."

"It's okay."

Liao Yunchuan pretended to be generous and said nothing else after sitting down.

Yang Fei heard clearly what he just said outside, and a look of contempt flashed on his face.

This Liao Yunchuan is clearly a drunkard who doesn't care about drinking. Those docile remarks are just excuses. It's obvious that he is jealous here.

"Okay, what are you still looking at here? Why don't you leave quickly?"

Yang Fei kept thinking in his mind, and from the corner of his eye, he saw that the two coachmen on the side seemed to be quite interested in this matter, and he immediately scolded him.

The coachman was struck by what he said as a clever man, and he soon began to continue on his way honestly.

Xue Yin's tentative place was a flower field on the outskirts of the city.

There were many people coming and going on weekdays. When the three of them got off the carriage, they had already seen many men and women who came together.

Most of them come to meet their lovers.

Liao Yunchuan's slightly sharp eyes swept over several people, and then fell on Xue Yin.

"It seems that you are quite good at choosing a place. You actually chose this place. Most of the people who come and go here on weekdays are lovers. If you and Jiang Lianzhu are allowed to have a romantic relationship here, then you can go back to the capital. After that, those rumors can’t be washed away.”

Liao Yunchuan was serious when he said this, and he seemed to really consider others.

Xue Yinxu was suddenly exposed, and the smile on his face could not be maintained.

"Lord Liao, there is no need to keep teasing me here. I also heard from others that the girl's family likes to come and play in this flower field, so I specifically chose this place. I definitely don't have the thoughts you just said."

He was silent for a moment before speaking. He actually didn't believe what he said.

Liao Yunchuan clicked his tongue inaudibly and did not dwell on this topic.
