Jing Zhonglin arranged everything.

However, he was still a little nervous, fearing that things would get out of control.

"...Where are my keys?" He suddenly touched his pocket.

Jing Feiyan: "What key?"

"It's just the keys. There are my car keys and my room keys." Jing Zhonglin said, "There is also a peace charm on it."

Jing Feiyan: "..."

Everything has been taken care of. Is it too much to deceive oneself and others by looking for a peace charm at this time?

"Maybe it fell next to the seat. Second brother, are you nervous?" Jing Feiyan asked him, "You talk so grandly, but you are actually more scared than me, right?"

Jing Zhonglin immediately calmed down his expression.

He pushed up his glasses: "I'm going to find the key."

Just as Jing Feiyan said, his key was indeed under the seat, next to the chair leg.

He picked it up, flicked the dust off, and gently touched the gold peace charm.

Wang Qin was uneasy.

He was very flattering to Jing Feiyan and respectful to Jing Zhonglin, but he was cold to his fiancée Jing Jiatong.

He doesn't like Jing Jiatong, but he likes the identity of "the lady of the Governor's Mansion", no matter who this lady is.

Jing Zhonglin sat in his seat and listened to the play without saying a word; Jing Feiyan came back and glanced at the door from time to time, pricking up her ears.

Soon, a maid hurried in: "Overseer."

Jing Feiyan and Jing Zhonglin looked over immediately.

"Overseer, madam, please come over." The maid said, "Madam said it is urgent."

Brother and sister Jing Feiyan and Jing Zhonglin strode over and stood behind the governor.

Jing Feiyan was curious: "What's wrong, madam?"

Maid: "It's nothing serious, it's just that Madam wants to find the Overseer and ask him to come over..."

The warlord didn't say much, stood up and left.

Jing Feiyan and Jing Zhonglin hurriedly followed; Wang Qin couldn't wait to go.

Everyone looked at me and me, all slightly surprised.

He Menglan snorted coldly: "What the hell? I want to go take a look."

She followed.

The other two younger sons of Xifu also followed to join in the fun.

My aunt Jingdai, her husband, and her children didn't know why, so they actually followed.

Jing Jiatong followed the crowd and saw everyone leaving, so she ran over too.

Everyone rushed to the small courtyard where Madam was resting, and saw Madam and Yan Xin standing under the eaves, looking up at the sky.

Seeing the crowd of people, the lady looked stunned: "What's going on?"

The warlord stepped forward and held the lady's hand: "Ayun, are you okay?"

The lady looked a little excited. With a little tear in her eyes, she said to Governor Jing, "Look, there is a shadow of a boat in the moon in the sky."

The moon tonight seems to be hanging low on the ridge of the roof, and for some reason, there is a very clear shadow of a boat on it.

"Overseer, do you still remember?" The lady looked into the Overseer's eyes, "The moon was like this the night I boarded the ship."

The warlord's heart fell to the ground.

He looked at the moon and recalled their first encounter more than thirty years ago.

Falling in love at first sight, he invited her aboard the ship. At that time, he firmly thought that if she was a woman holding a child, her husband must have died—if he didn't die, he would deserve to die, so that his wife and children would end up in such a situation.

His brain had no ability to think, and he just followed his instincts, trying to get her out of the refugee pile and onto his boat.

The moon seems to have gone around in a circle and illuminated the courtyard again tonight.

The warlord held her hand firmly: "I remember, Ayun!"

When he came to his senses, there was a whole yard of people standing there.

The lady looked at them doubtfully; the warlord also felt something was wrong.

He glanced around and saw Jing Zhonglin and Jing Feiyan first. They were following closely and had the strangest expressions on their faces.

No matter how they concealed it, they both looked shocked.

The warlord frowned and asked, "What are you guys doing here?"

Jing Feiyan quickly came to her senses: "We thought there was something going on with Madam."

"What's going on? We're in our own yard." said the warlord. "Everyone come here. Who's going to accompany the old lady? Go back quickly."

Only Sheng Yuanshan accompanied the old lady.

Everyone said yes.

"Why are we here?" Jing Jiatong asked.

"I don't know." said her cousin Wang Han.

"You all are here. I thought there was some excitement, so I came. Unexpectedly, it was my uncle and aunt talking about their old relationship."

When the second lady He Menglan heard this, she glared at Wang Han fiercely.

Wang Han hid behind his mother.

The aunt made peace and everyone went back to eat.

The group returned to the banquet, and the old lady asked what was going on.

Jing Feiyan, who was always smart, did not show off, but tried her best to suppress the panic in her eyes.

She looked at Jing Zhonglin.

Jing Zhonglin was as uneasy as she was. Apart from the two of them, the other person who was restless was Wang Qin.

Jing Jiatong looked at this and that, not sure why, but too lazy to investigate.

She is a bit confused. If others don't find fault with her, she will never take the initiative to find trouble.

In the small courtyard over there, the lady said to the governor: "When the banquet is over, you can send Zhong Lin back and let the father and son have a chat."

The warlord was puzzled: "What are you talking about?"

"He can't wait to marry the Nie family, and I'm afraid he will get into trouble. To be honest, I'm quite wary of the Nie family. If Zhong Lin is so impatient, he might be fooled. By then, you will be even more restrained." Madam said.

Warlord: "Okay, I'll talk to him."

"Don't be impatient, and don't scold him. The father and son sit down and have a cup of tea and talk carefully. Warlord, Zhong Lin is a smart boy, and he can make a career," the lady said.

Even though the children in Xifu are afraid of her, she always treats the situation rather than the person, and doesn't hide any secrets when she should be concerned.

This is why the warlord has respected her for decades.

"Okay, Madam, don't worry." The warlord smiled.

Then he said, "You just drank a few more drinks, and I thought you were drunk. Considering that you have such a good drinking capacity, it's not like that."

Madam: "My drinking ability has declined a bit. But except for you, no one else knows how many drinks I can have. The children really care about me."

The Overseer gently shook her hand.

This banquet was [-]% successful.

Everyone left the old house.

When they left, the old lady glanced at Jing Feiyan.

Jing Feiyan said nothing and followed.

But the military governor stopped Jing Zhonglin: "You take Dad's car and I'll see you off."

Jing Zhonglin tensed up.

There was something wrong in his mind, and his back felt stiff for no reason.

"Abba, is something wrong?"

"Let's sit down at your place and let's have a chat between father and son." The warlord said, "Abba wants to hear what you said about the past two years in Beicheng."

Jing Zhonglin: "..."

He was nervous but couldn't help it.

The warlord could see that he was shaking slightly and didn't know why.

Jing Zhonglin also worked in the army before and was not so afraid of him.

What happened to him tonight?

It took a long time for Jing Zhonglin's mood to calm down.

When we arrived at Jing Zhonglin's yard, it was deserted except for a full moon hanging in the air.

Overseer: "Where are the people you serve here?"

"Usually there is an old lady who does the cleaning, my adjutant does some chores, and there is no one else." Jing Zhonglin said.

Turning on the light, he almost went crazy with fear.

Even Governor Jing, who was accustomed to the world, was so frightened that he took two steps back and turned pale.
