Tragic death and rebirth, married to the abstinent uncle and was spoiled crazy
Chapter 121 Late Night Visit
It was late at night, the candlelight in the room was dim, and on a mahogany carved bed, Lin Tingwan was lying on the pillow, covered with a thick brocade quilt.
She was wearing a plain satin moon-white dress with a few beautiful peonies embroidered on the lapels, which formed a sharp contrast with her pale face.
Her long hair was casually draped over the pillow, a few loose strands of hair stained with a light scent of powder, adding a touch of charm to her softness.
"Why are you here?"
Pei Jinan looked at her with a complicated expression, not knowing what to say for a moment. He dreamed of her at noon.
He dreamed of two people playing the guzheng and the flute together. Actually, he had no interest in the guzheng, but for some reason, one day he suddenly became interested in it and even now he has mastered the superb skill of playing the instrument.
He originally wanted to secretly take a look at Lin Tingwan, but he didn't expect her to be so alert that she actually noticed his arrival and called him in. When he came in confused, he saw this scene.
Everything tonight seemed so familiar to Lin Tingwan. Pei Jinan also came to his dream tonight.
Lin Tingwan's lips curled up slightly, and a knowing smile flashed in his eyes.
However, the smile soon disappeared, replaced by bursts of coughing. Lin Tingwan touched her chest, and it felt like there was a blazing fire there, making it hard for her to breathe.
She coughed hard a few times, and the sound she coughed out was hoarse, like a string eroded by the cold wind. "Are you dreaming too?"
Pei Jinan's eyes shrank instantly, and he didn't know what to do for a moment, but he quickly reacted. He shook his head and said, "I don't know what Miss Lin is talking about. I just came in to take a look today."
Lin Tingwan laughed out loud instantly, "Who would have thought that the Prince Gong, who is quite famous in the whole Yongjin, is actually a pervert who sneaked into my little girl's boudoir at night."
The incense burner beside the bed emitted a faint scent of fragrance, but it did not seem to dispel the chill in the room.
Lin Tingwan wrapped himself tightly in the quilt, but his body still trembled.
Despite this, her face still maintained that calm and elegant look. The moonlight shone through the window lattice, dappled on her calm face, adding a pale halo to her.
Pei Jinan laughed out loud and said, "Can I be considered a pervert for being like this?"
Lin Tingwan looked at him with a faint smile, "Why not?"
"I heard that you were not feeling well, so I brought you some medicine." After saying that, Pei Jinan took out a few medicine bottles from his arms and placed them on the table.
Lin Tingwan looked at him in slight shock, confusion written all over her face, but she soon realized, "You have planted someone in the mansion?"
Pei Jinan turned his head away uncomfortably when he heard this and said nothing.
Lin Tingwan narrowed his eyes, "Who?"
"Don't worry, nothing bad will happen to you or your Lin family." Pei Jinan vowed.
Lin Tingwan suddenly coughed violently. Pei Jinan was startled and said hurriedly, "Okay, I'll tell you. Don't be like this anymore."
After a pause, he said, "It's Forsythia." After saying that, Pei Jinan lowered his head somewhat unnaturally.
Lin Tingwan's eyes widened instantly and looked at Pei Jinan in disbelief. You know, Yuzhu and Lianqiao had been serving her since they were young.
Scenes from her past life flashed through her mind. If Lian Qiao was Pei Jinan's woman, why did she suffer with her in the palace and be steamed to death?
Lian Qiao was truly doing this for her and the Lin family's good, and she knew all of this, but she never imagined that she was actually Pei Jinan's person.
Everything about the previous life could not be verified, but despite this, Lin Tingwan still decided to believe Lian Qiao.
She nodded and said slowly, "I understand."
Pei Jinan looked at Lin Tingwan in surprise. He thought that with her strong personality, she would get angry when she heard what he said, but she didn't say anything. This was a little unexpected for him.
"Thank you for the medicine." The medicine bottle would only contain pills. He didn't know if this matter had anything to do with Lian Qiao, or if Lian Qiao had told Pei Jinan about it. He knew she was afraid of suffering, so he sent the pills to her.
Pei Jinan shook his head gently, "Since you are okay, I will go ahead."
"and many more--"
Pei Jinan turned around and looked at Lin Tingwan in confusion. The two looked at each other for a long time, but Lin Tingwan did not speak for a long time.
It was not until the sound of rain outside suddenly woke Lin Tingwan up, "You really didn't have any dreams?"
Pei Jinan's eyes narrowed for a while, and he didn't know how to tell Lin Tingwan. He didn't know how to mention those incredible things to her.
He didn't know how to tell the woman who had no face but looked so much like her. For some reason, he felt it was better to keep this secret from her.
In the end, Pei Jinan chose to shake his head and said, "I sleep deeply at night and never have any dreams."
Lin Tingwan frowned slightly, but was a little unconvinced. However, seeing how determined he was, she still said nothing and nodded, "I don't need to worry about it."
Pei Jinan nodded gently, "I'll leave first."
At this moment, a dazzling flash of lightning cut through the dark clouds, and the night suddenly became brighter, followed by a deafening thunder that resounded through the sky and seemed to vibrate the surrounding air.
Raindrops began to fall from the sky, hitting the leaves, making a rustling sound, which soon turned into the sound of dense rain.
Lin Tingwan said with some concern, "It looks like it's raining hard outside. I'll send someone to get you an oilskin coat so you can put it on before you go."
Hearing this, Pei Jinan joked, "I am behaving like a pervert, how can I invite people in? What if others find out?"
Unexpectedly, Lin Tingwan immediately retorted, "Look at what you said. Isn't Lian Qiao yours? Anyway, I won't publicize your coming."
"They are my subordinates, not my people." Pei Jinan corrected.
Lin Tingwan nodded casually, took the dagger sheath on the bed and looked at the bed with force, which made a thumping sound.
Pei Jinan was dumbfounded. He never thought that Lin Tingwan would put the dagger under the pillow. It turned out that a woman was so wary.
At this moment Pei Jinan couldn't help but feel fortunate that he was not a real scoundrel and that he did not force his way in and fight with Miss Lin.
As Lin Tingwan expected, the person who came in was indeed Lian Qiao.
Normally there would always be someone on guard outside at night. The noise she and Pei Jinan were making was not small, but no one came in to investigate until he said that Lian Qiao was his subordinate.
Lin Tingwan suspected that the person on guard today was Lian Qiao.
Sure enough, it is true.
Lin Tingwan said calmly, "Go get your master an oil coat."
