When he returned to his residence that night, Jiang Yi wrote a letter to Jiang Wuque.
An eloquent and eloquent article, expressing one meaning-Dad, Rong Rong said that she misses you!
After finishing writing, he showed it to Jiang Rong and Yuan Suiyun, and asked them, "How is it, is it enough?"
Jiang Rong: "...Is your word too flamboyant, can Uncle Wuque understand it?"
Yuan Suiyun pursed his lips and said with a smile: "There is no need to worry, Ah Yi has written almost all of his handwriting in the past few years like this."
Jiang Rong was speechless for a moment, and muttered in a low voice, it seems that you often write letters to each other.
Jiang Yi was right, because he needed advice on business matters.
Jiang Rong always knew that Jiang Yi could not develop Jiangnan's silk business so smoothly without Yuan Suiyun's help.
But when she really talked about this topic seriously, she realized that she had underestimated Yuan Suiyun's efforts for Jiang Yi before that.
She couldn't help asking Yuan Suiyun: "What did you help him with?"
Yuan Suiyun said that it was just a small favor, it is not worth mentioning it.
Jiang Rong didn't believe it, from using a pseudonym to the delivery manager, as far as she knew, it was no small favor at all.
However, Yuan Suiyun killed a sentence that was not worth mentioning, and she couldn't press his head to force him to admit that he had helped Jiang Yi a lot.
As for Jiang Yi, who was being helped, seeing that the situation was not good, he ran away yelling that he was tired and sleepy.
Jiang Rong: "..." Forget it.
Standing in the corridor, she carefully folded the letter that Jiang Yi wrote to Jiang Wuque, and handed it to the servant waiting in front of the corridor, saying: "Tomorrow, I will send someone to Yihua Palace."
The little servant bowed and bowed his head in response, and quickly stepped back after the response.So under the huge flower corridor, only Jiang Rong and Yuan Suiyun were left.
Considering that Yuan Suiyun drove all the way from Taiyuan, Jiang Rong turned to him without much hesitation, "You should go to rest earlier."
Yuan Suiyun didn't refuse, but before moving away, he suddenly sighed for some reason.
Jiang Rong heard it in his ears, but still felt inexplicable, but before he had time to ask what was wrong, he heard him speak again and called her.
"Rong Rong." He said, "The three of us grew up together, so you don't have to figure everything out as clearly as I do."
"I have helped Ah Yi a lot." He continued, "But that's all within my power, and I can help as much as I can. In my opinion, this is what it should be."
Jiang Rong didn't expect that he would directly break the topic, so he froze there for a moment.
After a while, she came back to her senses and said in a low voice, "I just... I just don't want to trouble you too much."
"Like I said, those things are not troublesome at all." He still said the same thing, "It's because you have to be so estranged with me that I find it troublesome."
"I..." After so many years of secret thoughts were directly spoken out, Jiang Rong found that he couldn't find any rebuttal words at all.
Yes, for a long time, she had hoped to make a clearer calculation with Yuan Suiyun, and to be clearer, it was best not to owe him anything.
As for the reason, it was of course out of the worry that he might become black in the future.
She felt that this worry was well-founded, after all, she had read the book.
But when she was thinking this way, she forgot that for the world she was in now, the books she had read before time travel were groundless illusions.
Jiang Rong was silent.
Yuan Suiyun looked at her drooping eyelashes, paused for a long time, and then continued: "I know, my surname is not Jiang, and to you and Ah Yi, I am always just an outsider."
Hearing this, Jiang Rong finally retorted: "No, my brother regards you as his best brother, and I also regard you as my friend."
"Then you are always so polite to your friends, and your friends will be sad." He said softly.
The second half of the sentence was spoken too softly, almost covered by Xia Ye's wind, but Jiang Rong still heard it.
She lowered her head, her eyes fell between his toes, and she said, "...I'm sorry."
In fact, what Yuan Suiyun wanted was never an apology.
In other words, he didn't expect that after he finished speaking, her reaction would be to say sorry to him.
He smiled, and at the same time stretched out his hand to stroke the top of her hair and said, "I don't blame you."
"I just hope—I hope you don't always think of me as an unimportant acquaintance."
Jiang Rong was already a little sad by what he said, but when he heard the last two sentences, he felt even more ashamed.
This time she didn't say sorry again, but said solemnly: "I understand."
After the conversation was over, the two went back to their rooms to rest.
I don't know if it was because of the words he said before going to bed, that night, Jiang Rong remembered many things from his childhood after a long absence.
She remembered that the first gift that Yuan Suiyun gave her was an ivory ghost ball.
The ivory crafted ball is exquisitely carved, with different layers. The best thing is that after turning the outer six layers to a suitable angle, there is exactly a crescent in the center.
But such a delicate and beautiful thing, Jiang Rong has never really played with it a few times.
Yuan Suiyun asked her if she didn't like it?If he doesn't think it's pretty enough, he has a seven-story one at home that he can bring to her.
Jiang Rong said no, she was not very interested in this thing.
In order to prove that she was not talking nonsense, she also found out the ivory ghost ball and said that she could return it to him.
Of course Yuan Suiyun didn't want it.
He said that he gave it away, and there was absolutely no reason to take it back.
Thinking about it now, in fact, at that time, he should have been very disappointed.
Even if he is the young master of the No. [-] martial arts family, he can't give away such a rare item casually.
Later, he will not send similar things again.
She seemed to realize that it was too expensive and she wouldn't want it. Most of the things he brought back to the Valley of the Wicked every year were small gadgets that can be seen everywhere in the marketplace in the Central Plains.
Otherwise, simply don't bring it to her, and bring it to Ah Guai instead.
But even for those things that were not so good before, she would probably find other opportunities to repay the favors.
For Jiang Rong, this is almost a means of "self-comfort".
What she didn't expect was that Yuan Suiyun had always been very aware of her attitude of "not owing each other" and would feel sad about it.
When he didn't show it in the past, she didn't think it was a big deal, just like what she had advised Jiang Yi before, brothers have to settle accounts clearly, not to mention that she and Yuan Suiyun are not brothers.
But tonight he made it clear in a few words, if she was still unmoved, then it would be too cruel.
And thinking about it from Yuan Suiyun's point of view, her attitude can't be overstated.
At least if she were him, she would definitely not be able to bear it, and would even want to break up with this friend!
Jiang Rong lay on the bed, hugged the quilt and reflected for a long time. When he finally fell asleep, the sky outside the house turned white.
Because she slept too late, it was rare that she didn't get up on time to practice halberd as usual the next morning.
Lin Xian'er waited at the door of her room for half an hour on time, but she didn't hear any movement inside, so she was anxious, so she boldly knocked on the door twice.
As a result, Jiang Rong slept so deeply that he didn't hear anything.
Jiang Rong used to live alone when he was in the Valley of the Evil. Now that he lives in the capital, he will habitually lock the doors and windows before going to bed.
Unless she wakes up by herself, the servants will not be able to enter at all.
At this moment, Lin Xian'er couldn't wait for her to come out, and couldn't hear the movement in the house, so she was inevitably anxious.
After deliberating for a while, she bit her lip and ran towards the front yard.
She is just a maid who combs her hair, she dare not and cannot force her way into Jiang Rong's room, but Jiang Yi should still be able to, right?
Thinking of this, she carried her skirt and ran all the way to the main hall.
As a result, Jiang Yi also got up early today to inspect his shop, and there was only Yuan Suiyun in the main hall.
Lin Xian'er: "..."
Yuan Suiyun had never seen her before, seeing her running over like this, he was a little surprised: "Who are you?"
Lin Xian'er hurriedly stood still, panting and said in a low voice, "I am Miss Rong's maid."
Yuan Suiyun found it strange: "Rong Rong is willing to be served by a maid?"
When Lin Xian'er heard him address Jiang Rong, she probably guessed his identity, because early this morning, the kitchen was talking about the arrival of the young master from Wuzheng Villa.
So the next moment, she tentatively asked him: "Is it the original young master?"
"Yes." Yuan Suiyun nodded, admitting readily.
"I combed Miss Rong's hair." She said, "She didn't get up today for some reason. I was a little worried. I wanted to ask Mr. Yi to take a look, but Mr. Yi..."
Yuan Suiyun stood up immediately: "Ayi went to Hongshi to look at the shop, I'll take a look at Rongrong's place, and you can show me the way."
Lin Xian'er hurriedly answered yes, and then led him through the garden to Jiang Rong's door.
On the way, she also explained her worries in a low voice, saying that according to Jiang Rong's daily habits, she usually gets up early at this time.
Yuan Suiyun frowned: "I know."
They grew up together, even including Jiang Yi, Yuan Suiyun dared to say that he is the person who knows Jiang Rong's habits best in the world.
Therefore, at this moment, his inner anxiety will only be more than that of Lin Xian'er.
He just didn't show it on his face.
Like Lin Xianer, when he stood at the door, his first reaction was to raise his hand and knock on the door to ask.
After knocking three times and waiting for no response, he stopped hesitating and Yun Jin broke the bolt that locked the door.
The pear-blossom wooden door opened in response to the sound, revealing the simple furnishings inside the house.
From the perspective of Yuan Suiyun and Lin Xian'er, the line of sight will be blocked by a screen, and Jiang Rong's bed cannot be seen at a glance.
But they all saw the pair of white boots by her bed.
Going one step further in, what comes into view is a lazy picture scroll of a girl who is snoozing.
The two breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.
But I also feel strange, it's such an hour, why is she still asleep for such a hardworking person?
Yuan Suiyun was afraid that she was ill, so he hesitated for a moment, then went around the screen and continued walking inside.
He walked to her bed and stood still, bent down and lowered his head, reaching out to touch her forehead.
A warm touch came from the palm, making him take a breath.
But at the same time, because he confirmed that she didn't catch a cold or have a fever, he also let go of some big stones in his heart.
Jiang Rong was in a drowsy sleep, although she couldn't hear all kinds of sounds in her ears clearly, but there was something cold on her forehead, which still surprised her a little.
She muttered something that seemed like a dream but not a dream, and frowned and tried to open her eyes. When she saw it was him, many images that she recalled repeatedly before going to bed instantly appeared in her mind.
"Why are you..." Jiang Rong thought he was dreaming, "Oh, I know I was wrong..."
What he said was rambling and slurred, but Yuan Suiyun understood it.
His heart moved, but he didn't follow along, he just smiled and said: "If you're so sleepy, go back to sleep."
After finishing speaking, he finally withdrew his hand, and while pulling the quilt neatly for her, he turned his head and told Lin Xian'er softly: "Rong Rong is fine, you can come in and look for her after she has slept enough."
Lin Xianer let out an oh, and retreated obediently.
And he didn't stay in Jiang Rong's bedroom for a long time, he glanced at her who had fallen asleep again, and followed Lin Xian'er out of the room.
Lin Xian'er was waiting to comb Jiang Rong's hair, but she didn't dare to run around, so she could only wait in the courtyard.
Seeing that Yuan Suiyun didn't intend to leave after coming out, she just sat down at the stone table in front of the porch, she couldn't help being stunned for a moment.
As a little girl who was born in the well of the capital city, even if Lin Xian'er didn't know much about Jianghu affairs, it was absolutely impossible for her not to have heard of the name of Wuzheng Villa.
Seeing Yuan Suiyun, the young owner of the villa now, it is inevitable to look at him a few more times curiously.
If Yuan Suiyun was a young master with a bad temper, if she sneaked a few glances from time to time, she would probably be punished for a crime of arrogance.
But Yuan Suiyun had a good demeanor after all, and he felt that she was young, so he didn't care about it. Instead, he took the initiative to speak to her and said a few words to her.
Yuan Suiyun asked her: "Why did you follow Rongrong?"
Lin Xian'er told the truth: "Master Yi saved me, Miss Rong took pity on my background, so she asked me to stay and comb her hair."
"No wonder." Yuan Suiyun thought of Jiang Rong's bun yesterday, and sighed with emotion.
After sighing, he told Lin Xian'er again: "She doesn't pay much attention to these things on weekdays, so you should worry more about it in the future."
Lin Xian'er nodded immediately: "Yes, I can save it."
Yuan Suiyun heard the words, thought about it again, and said: "She is very sleepy, I am afraid she will have to sleep for another half an hour, you go do other things first, when she wakes up, I will send someone to call you. "
Although Lin Xian'er wanted to stay here and wait, but master and servant were different, and she had no choice but to accept what he said.
It was midsummer, and the courtyard was luxuriant and lush.
Yuan Suiyun sat at the stone table, didn't feel hot or bored, and even stretched out his hands to pick up two leaves to play with.
Jiang Rong finally got enough sleep, and when he came out of the house, he saw him sitting in front of the porch with his back to him, holding a green leaf in his hand and looking over.
She was stunned: "Hey, Suiyun, why are you here?"
Before Yuan Suiyun could answer, she remembered that she hadn't combed or washed her face at the moment, so she quickly raised her hand to grab her head, and looked around for Lin Xianer's figure.
"Well, have you seen a little girl—" she said while comparing Lin Xian'er's stature in front of her.
"—the one that combs your hair?" He smiled and stood up without mentioning anything else, "I'll call her for you."
After a while, Lin Xian'er trotted back.
Jiang Rong sat down in the room, and Miss Ren combed her long hair, and asked casually: "By the way, when did Suiyun come here?"
As her maid, Lin Xian'er naturally knew everything about her problems, and immediately told her what happened in the morning.
At the end of the talk, Lin Xian'er was still curious: "So Miss Rong doesn't remember? But I heard you talking to the owner of Yuan Shaozhuang."
Jiang Rong: "..."
God, so it wasn't a dream?
She was so embarrassed that she wished she could cover her face, but from the corner of her eye, she saw that the little maid was still staring at her suspiciously, she still maintained her demeanor, and said solemnly: "Oh, I forgot to sleep."
Lin Xian'er: "?" Is there such a thing as forgetful?
Because of what happened in the morning when he was half asleep and half awake, Jiang Rong was still a little embarrassed when he saw Yuan Suiyun after washing up thoroughly.
Fortunately, Yuan Suiyun didn't mention this at all, and only told her that Jiang Yi had something to do today and went out early in the morning.
"If Rongrong is free, why don't you accompany me around the capital?"
Jiang Rong was still feeling guilty towards him, so of course he responded immediately: "No problem, I'll take you to the best restaurant in Bianjing."
Yuan Suiyun pursed her lips: "Then go out now?"
Because West Cross Street is very close to the most lively places in the capital, the two of them did not bring any entourage or ride in a carriage when they went out.
Jiang Rong had visited many times before, and was very familiar with these streets, so he led him through the streets and alleys, all the way to the Jinliang Bridge.
The woman who sells flowers on the bridge has been taken care of by her for a lot of business, so she has long remembered her and greeted her as soon as she saw her.
When Jiang Rong and Lin Shiyin came together in the past, he could have bought a handful for his beautiful sister, but today it was Yuan Suiyun who was with her, so it was a bit strange for her to do so.
So she smiled at the woman whose surname was Liang or Lu, and said, "I won't buy it today."
The woman also laughed, bowed her head and picked out a branch of pink lotus still soaked in dew, saying that she would give it to her.
Jiang Rong was taken aback for a moment before taking it, and thanked him.
After crossing the bridge with the lotus in hand, Yuan Suiyun asked her seemingly unintentionally, "Do you often buy that person's flowers?"
Jiang Rong nodded: "She is a widow who earns her living by selling flowers. When I meet her when I go out, I will buy some as gifts."
"Send someone?"
"Send the beauty." Jiang Rong chuckled, "Do you still remember Xiao Li Tanhua we rescued back then?"
Although Li Xun Huan looks good, Yuan Suiyun remembers that Jiang Rong didn't show much interest in him back then.
So after thinking about it for a while, he reacted: "His cousin who is known as the number one beauty in Bianjing?"
"Yes! It's really beautiful." Jiang Rong said while gesticulating, "Give flowers to the beauty, she is happy, and I am also happy, why not do it?"
It was rare for Yuan Suiyun to see her beaming like this, so he looked at her for a while because of the novelty.
She was inexplicably stared at, and couldn't help but raised her hand to rub her face, and asked, "Is there something on my face?"
"...No." He denied it with a smile.
"Let's go if you don't have one. In another quarter of an hour, that restaurant will be full." Jiang Rong said.
Yuan Suiyun nodded and looked away, and was about to speed up his pace with her, but he caught a glimpse of a very tall and handsome young man on the other side of the Bian River not far away, looking at them.
He paused, turned his head to meet his gaze, thought that the other party would at least restrain himself, but unexpectedly, the young man was still staring at them blatantly, and even raised his chin when he looked back.
The next moment, an energetic "Jiang Gu Master" sounded from the other side of the river.
Yuan Suiyun: "..."
Jiang Rong frowned instinctively when he heard this voice.
"Why did you meet him again?" There was obvious complaint in her tone.
Yuan Suiyun: "That's it?"
Jiang Rong glanced at the other side of the river, and found that the guy had already run towards the Jinliang Bridge. He felt even more headache, and said angrily, "His name is Bai Baiyu, you should have heard of this name."
Of course Yuan Suiyun has heard of this name, besides the name, he has also heard of many romantic deeds of Bai Baiyu.
How did Jiang Rong know this person?Yuan Suiyun was very concerned.
But when he asked, he still had a very casual tone.
Jiang Rong didn't think too much about it, and said directly: "I met Li Tanhua at the birthday party hosted by Shiyin's sister, and I met him several times in Li Yuan after that."
As soon as she finished speaking, Bai Baiyu ran over from the Jinliang Bridge.
Because of the hot weather, he was dressed very thinly and coolly today, not in black as before, but in white, except for the black knife at his waist.
Under the contrast of black and white, it makes his aura even more so that people dare not look directly at him.
Jiang Rong had fought with him before, so of course he was not afraid of him, and when he saw him approaching with a smile, he didn't give him a good face.
"What did you call me for?" she asked.
"I'm glad to meet Valley Master Jiang." He still had the same tone that Jiang Rong could hear, "Come over and say hello."
Jiang Rong said oh, and said that now the greeting is over, you can go.
After finishing speaking, she was about to walk towards the restaurant, and when she lifted her foot, she lightly pulled Yuan Suiyun's sleeve.
Yuan Suiyun noticed her movement, so he didn't speak to Bai Baiyu at all, and followed her in silence.
As a result, Bai Baiyu also followed her, and asked her if she was going to eat.
Jiang Rong: "... Whether I eat or not is none of your business."
The more indifferent and impatient she was, the more excited Bai Baiyu was.
He curled his lips into a smile, and said with a drawn out tone: "If Valley Master Jiang is planning to go to Lingxian Tower, then it's none of my business."
The Lingxian Building he was talking about was the one that Jiang Rong was going to take Yuan Suiyun to, and it was also the one that Jiang Rong really went to when he first met him.
Jiang Rong was puzzled by what he said: "What do you mean?"
"Lingxian Tower was taken over by me today." He said, "It is used to clean up my brothers."
Jiang Rong was speechless.
"However, if Valley Master Jiang wants to go, it's okay for me to find a private room to come out." He said again.
Jiang Rong hesitated for a moment. If she came out to eat by herself today, she would definitely not accept Bai Yu's favor, because she knew that if she accepted, this man would annoy her to death.
But at this moment she was not alone, she also brought Yuan Suiyun, who had promised to take him to the best restaurant in Bianjing, and she didn't want to spoil his interest.
"Then..." She wanted to tell Bai Bai Yu that I would like to ask you to do me a favor.
But as soon as the first syllable came out, another voice overshadowed hers.
It was Yuan Suiyun.
Yuan Suiyun said: "Then don't bother Hall Master Bai, Rong Rong and I can find another place."
Bai Baiyu: "???"
Who is this boy?How could he call Jiang Rong, the terrifying overlord Hua Rongrong? !
An eloquent and eloquent article, expressing one meaning-Dad, Rong Rong said that she misses you!
After finishing writing, he showed it to Jiang Rong and Yuan Suiyun, and asked them, "How is it, is it enough?"
Jiang Rong: "...Is your word too flamboyant, can Uncle Wuque understand it?"
Yuan Suiyun pursed his lips and said with a smile: "There is no need to worry, Ah Yi has written almost all of his handwriting in the past few years like this."
Jiang Rong was speechless for a moment, and muttered in a low voice, it seems that you often write letters to each other.
Jiang Yi was right, because he needed advice on business matters.
Jiang Rong always knew that Jiang Yi could not develop Jiangnan's silk business so smoothly without Yuan Suiyun's help.
But when she really talked about this topic seriously, she realized that she had underestimated Yuan Suiyun's efforts for Jiang Yi before that.
She couldn't help asking Yuan Suiyun: "What did you help him with?"

As for Jiang Yi, who was being helped, seeing that the situation was not good, he ran away yelling that he was tired and sleepy.
Jiang Rong: "..." Forget it.
Standing in the corridor, she carefully folded the letter that Jiang Yi wrote to Jiang Wuque, and handed it to the servant waiting in front of the corridor, saying: "Tomorrow, I will send someone to Yihua Palace."
The little servant bowed and bowed his head in response, and quickly stepped back after the response.So under the huge flower corridor, only Jiang Rong and Yuan Suiyun were left.
Considering that Yuan Suiyun drove all the way from Taiyuan, Jiang Rong turned to him without much hesitation, "You should go to rest earlier."
Yuan Suiyun didn't refuse, but before moving away, he suddenly sighed for some reason.
Jiang Rong heard it in his ears, but still felt inexplicable, but before he had time to ask what was wrong, he heard him speak again and called her.
"Rong Rong." He said, "The three of us grew up together, so you don't have to figure everything out as clearly as I do."

"Then you are always so polite to your friends, and your friends will be sad." He said softly.
The second half of the sentence was spoken too softly, almost covered by Xia Ye's wind, but Jiang Rong still heard it.
She lowered her head, her eyes fell between his toes, and she said, "...I'm sorry."
In fact, what Yuan Suiyun wanted was never an apology.

"I just hope—I hope you don't always think of me as an unimportant acquaintance."
Jiang Rong was already a little sad by what he said, but when he heard the last two sentences, he felt even more ashamed.
This time she didn't say sorry again, but said solemnly: "I understand."
After the conversation was over, the two went back to their rooms to rest.
I don't know if it was because of the words he said before going to bed, that night, Jiang Rong remembered many things from his childhood after a long absence.
She remembered that the first gift that Yuan Suiyun gave her was an ivory ghost ball.
The ivory crafted ball is exquisitely carved, with different layers. The best thing is that after turning the outer six layers to a suitable angle, there is exactly a crescent in the center.
But such a delicate and beautiful thing, Jiang Rong has never really played with it a few times.
Yuan Suiyun asked her if she didn't like it?If he doesn't think it's pretty enough, he has a seven-story one at home that he can bring to her.
Jiang Rong said no, she was not very interested in this thing.
In order to prove that she was not talking nonsense, she also found out the ivory ghost ball and said that she could return it to him.
Of course Yuan Suiyun didn't want it.
He said that he gave it away, and there was absolutely no reason to take it back.
Thinking about it now, in fact, at that time, he should have been very disappointed.

Lin Xian'er waited at the door of her room for half an hour on time, but she didn't hear any movement inside, so she was anxious, so she boldly knocked on the door twice.
As a result, Jiang Rong slept so deeply that he didn't hear anything.
Jiang Rong used to live alone when he was in the Valley of the Evil. Now that he lives in the capital, he will habitually lock the doors and windows before going to bed.
Unless she wakes up by herself, the servants will not be able to enter at all.
At this moment, Lin Xian'er couldn't wait for her to come out, and couldn't hear the movement in the house, so she was inevitably anxious.

They grew up together, even including Jiang Yi, Yuan Suiyun dared to say that he is the person who knows Jiang Rong's habits best in the world.
Therefore, at this moment, his inner anxiety will only be more than that of Lin Xian'er.
He just didn't show it on his face.
Like Lin Xianer, when he stood at the door, his first reaction was to raise his hand and knock on the door to ask.
After knocking three times and waiting for no response, he stopped hesitating and Yun Jin broke the bolt that locked the door.
The pear-blossom wooden door opened in response to the sound, revealing the simple furnishings inside the house.
From the perspective of Yuan Suiyun and Lin Xian'er, the line of sight will be blocked by a screen, and Jiang Rong's bed cannot be seen at a glance.
But they all saw the pair of white boots by her bed.
Going one step further in, what comes into view is a lazy picture scroll of a girl who is snoozing.
The two breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.
But I also feel strange, it's such an hour, why is she still asleep for such a hardworking person?
Yuan Suiyun was afraid that she was ill, so he hesitated for a moment, then went around the screen and continued walking inside.
He walked to her bed and stood still, bent down and lowered his head, reaching out to touch her forehead.
A warm touch came from the palm, making him take a breath.
But at the same time, because he confirmed that she didn't catch a cold or have a fever, he also let go of some big stones in his heart.
Jiang Rong was in a drowsy sleep, although she couldn't hear all kinds of sounds in her ears clearly, but there was something cold on her forehead, which still surprised her a little.
She muttered something that seemed like a dream but not a dream, and frowned and tried to open her eyes. When she saw it was him, many images that she recalled repeatedly before going to bed instantly appeared in her mind.
"Why are you..." Jiang Rong thought he was dreaming, "Oh, I know I was wrong..."
What he said was rambling and slurred, but Yuan Suiyun understood it.
His heart moved, but he didn't follow along, he just smiled and said: "If you're so sleepy, go back to sleep."
After finishing speaking, he finally withdrew his hand, and while pulling the quilt neatly for her, he turned his head and told Lin Xian'er softly: "Rong Rong is fine, you can come in and look for her after she has slept enough."
Lin Xianer let out an oh, and retreated obediently.
And he didn't stay in Jiang Rong's bedroom for a long time, he glanced at her who had fallen asleep again, and followed Lin Xian'er out of the room.
Lin Xian'er was waiting to comb Jiang Rong's hair, but she didn't dare to run around, so she could only wait in the courtyard.
Seeing that Yuan Suiyun didn't intend to leave after coming out, she just sat down at the stone table in front of the porch, she couldn't help being stunned for a moment.
As a little girl who was born in the well of the capital city, even if Lin Xian'er didn't know much about Jianghu affairs, it was absolutely impossible for her not to have heard of the name of Wuzheng Villa.
Seeing Yuan Suiyun, the young owner of the villa now, it is inevitable to look at him a few more times curiously.
If Yuan Suiyun was a young master with a bad temper, if she sneaked a few glances from time to time, she would probably be punished for a crime of arrogance.
But Yuan Suiyun had a good demeanor after all, and he felt that she was young, so he didn't care about it. Instead, he took the initiative to speak to her and said a few words to her.
Yuan Suiyun asked her: "Why did you follow Rongrong?"
Lin Xian'er told the truth: "Master Yi saved me, Miss Rong took pity on my background, so she asked me to stay and comb her hair."
"No wonder." Yuan Suiyun thought of Jiang Rong's bun yesterday, and sighed with emotion.
After sighing, he told Lin Xian'er again: "She doesn't pay much attention to these things on weekdays, so you should worry more about it in the future."
Lin Xian'er nodded immediately: "Yes, I can save it."
Yuan Suiyun heard the words, thought about it again, and said: "She is very sleepy, I am afraid she will have to sleep for another half an hour, you go do other things first, when she wakes up, I will send someone to call you. "
Although Lin Xian'er wanted to stay here and wait, but master and servant were different, and she had no choice but to accept what he said.
It was midsummer, and the courtyard was luxuriant and lush.
Yuan Suiyun sat at the stone table, didn't feel hot or bored, and even stretched out his hands to pick up two leaves to play with.
Jiang Rong finally got enough sleep, and when he came out of the house, he saw him sitting in front of the porch with his back to him, holding a green leaf in his hand and looking over.
She was stunned: "Hey, Suiyun, why are you here?"
Before Yuan Suiyun could answer, she remembered that she hadn't combed or washed her face at the moment, so she quickly raised her hand to grab her head, and looked around for Lin Xianer's figure.
"Well, have you seen a little girl—" she said while comparing Lin Xian'er's stature in front of her.
"—the one that combs your hair?" He smiled and stood up without mentioning anything else, "I'll call her for you."
After a while, Lin Xian'er trotted back.
Jiang Rong sat down in the room, and Miss Ren combed her long hair, and asked casually: "By the way, when did Suiyun come here?"
As her maid, Lin Xian'er naturally knew everything about her problems, and immediately told her what happened in the morning.
At the end of the talk, Lin Xian'er was still curious: "So Miss Rong doesn't remember? But I heard you talking to the owner of Yuan Shaozhuang."
Jiang Rong: "..."
God, so it wasn't a dream?
She was so embarrassed that she wished she could cover her face, but from the corner of her eye, she saw that the little maid was still staring at her suspiciously, she still maintained her demeanor, and said solemnly: "Oh, I forgot to sleep."
Lin Xian'er: "?" Is there such a thing as forgetful?
Because of what happened in the morning when he was half asleep and half awake, Jiang Rong was still a little embarrassed when he saw Yuan Suiyun after washing up thoroughly.
Fortunately, Yuan Suiyun didn't mention this at all, and only told her that Jiang Yi had something to do today and went out early in the morning.
"If Rongrong is free, why don't you accompany me around the capital?"
Jiang Rong was still feeling guilty towards him, so of course he responded immediately: "No problem, I'll take you to the best restaurant in Bianjing."
Yuan Suiyun pursed her lips: "Then go out now?"
Because West Cross Street is very close to the most lively places in the capital, the two of them did not bring any entourage or ride in a carriage when they went out.
Jiang Rong had visited many times before, and was very familiar with these streets, so he led him through the streets and alleys, all the way to the Jinliang Bridge.
The woman who sells flowers on the bridge has been taken care of by her for a lot of business, so she has long remembered her and greeted her as soon as she saw her.
When Jiang Rong and Lin Shiyin came together in the past, he could have bought a handful for his beautiful sister, but today it was Yuan Suiyun who was with her, so it was a bit strange for her to do so.
So she smiled at the woman whose surname was Liang or Lu, and said, "I won't buy it today."
The woman also laughed, bowed her head and picked out a branch of pink lotus still soaked in dew, saying that she would give it to her.
Jiang Rong was taken aback for a moment before taking it, and thanked him.
After crossing the bridge with the lotus in hand, Yuan Suiyun asked her seemingly unintentionally, "Do you often buy that person's flowers?"
Jiang Rong nodded: "She is a widow who earns her living by selling flowers. When I meet her when I go out, I will buy some as gifts."
"Send someone?"
"Send the beauty." Jiang Rong chuckled, "Do you still remember Xiao Li Tanhua we rescued back then?"
Although Li Xun Huan looks good, Yuan Suiyun remembers that Jiang Rong didn't show much interest in him back then.
So after thinking about it for a while, he reacted: "His cousin who is known as the number one beauty in Bianjing?"
"Yes! It's really beautiful." Jiang Rong said while gesticulating, "Give flowers to the beauty, she is happy, and I am also happy, why not do it?"
It was rare for Yuan Suiyun to see her beaming like this, so he looked at her for a while because of the novelty.
She was inexplicably stared at, and couldn't help but raised her hand to rub her face, and asked, "Is there something on my face?"
"...No." He denied it with a smile.
"Let's go if you don't have one. In another quarter of an hour, that restaurant will be full." Jiang Rong said.
Yuan Suiyun nodded and looked away, and was about to speed up his pace with her, but he caught a glimpse of a very tall and handsome young man on the other side of the Bian River not far away, looking at them.
He paused, turned his head to meet his gaze, thought that the other party would at least restrain himself, but unexpectedly, the young man was still staring at them blatantly, and even raised his chin when he looked back.
The next moment, an energetic "Jiang Gu Master" sounded from the other side of the river.
Yuan Suiyun: "..."
Jiang Rong frowned instinctively when he heard this voice.
"Why did you meet him again?" There was obvious complaint in her tone.
Yuan Suiyun: "That's it?"
Jiang Rong glanced at the other side of the river, and found that the guy had already run towards the Jinliang Bridge. He felt even more headache, and said angrily, "His name is Bai Baiyu, you should have heard of this name."
Of course Yuan Suiyun has heard of this name, besides the name, he has also heard of many romantic deeds of Bai Baiyu.
How did Jiang Rong know this person?Yuan Suiyun was very concerned.
But when he asked, he still had a very casual tone.
Jiang Rong didn't think too much about it, and said directly: "I met Li Tanhua at the birthday party hosted by Shiyin's sister, and I met him several times in Li Yuan after that."
As soon as she finished speaking, Bai Baiyu ran over from the Jinliang Bridge.
Because of the hot weather, he was dressed very thinly and coolly today, not in black as before, but in white, except for the black knife at his waist.
Under the contrast of black and white, it makes his aura even more so that people dare not look directly at him.
Jiang Rong had fought with him before, so of course he was not afraid of him, and when he saw him approaching with a smile, he didn't give him a good face.
"What did you call me for?" she asked.
"I'm glad to meet Valley Master Jiang." He still had the same tone that Jiang Rong could hear, "Come over and say hello."
Jiang Rong said oh, and said that now the greeting is over, you can go.
After finishing speaking, she was about to walk towards the restaurant, and when she lifted her foot, she lightly pulled Yuan Suiyun's sleeve.
Yuan Suiyun noticed her movement, so he didn't speak to Bai Baiyu at all, and followed her in silence.
As a result, Bai Baiyu also followed her, and asked her if she was going to eat.
Jiang Rong: "... Whether I eat or not is none of your business."
The more indifferent and impatient she was, the more excited Bai Baiyu was.
He curled his lips into a smile, and said with a drawn out tone: "If Valley Master Jiang is planning to go to Lingxian Tower, then it's none of my business."
The Lingxian Building he was talking about was the one that Jiang Rong was going to take Yuan Suiyun to, and it was also the one that Jiang Rong really went to when he first met him.
Jiang Rong was puzzled by what he said: "What do you mean?"
"Lingxian Tower was taken over by me today." He said, "It is used to clean up my brothers."
Jiang Rong was speechless.
"However, if Valley Master Jiang wants to go, it's okay for me to find a private room to come out." He said again.
Jiang Rong hesitated for a moment. If she came out to eat by herself today, she would definitely not accept Bai Yu's favor, because she knew that if she accepted, this man would annoy her to death.
But at this moment she was not alone, she also brought Yuan Suiyun, who had promised to take him to the best restaurant in Bianjing, and she didn't want to spoil his interest.
"Then..." She wanted to tell Bai Bai Yu that I would like to ask you to do me a favor.
But as soon as the first syllable came out, another voice overshadowed hers.
It was Yuan Suiyun.
Yuan Suiyun said: "Then don't bother Hall Master Bai, Rong Rong and I can find another place."
Bai Baiyu: "???"
Who is this boy?How could he call Jiang Rong, the terrifying overlord Hua Rongrong? !
