Xiao Junzhan lowered his eyes slightly and allowed her to kiss him. When she had kissed her enough and wanted to leave, he held her waist and sat on his lap, holding her hands in his palms. Looking at her quietly, he said warmly, "Can Ran Ran tell me what happened when I went out today?" "You really don't know?" Wei Hanzhang asked curiously, "Didn't your secret guard tell you?" "Not yet," Xiao Junzhan said with a smile: "Not just today, but from now on, they will not report your information to me privately against your wishes without your permission." "..." Wei Hanzhang was silent, and was actually a little moved. He somewhat understood in his heart that in the eyes of a superior like him who holds the power of life and death, respect is probably the most scarce thing. She told him in detail what she heard in the teahouse today, and also told him interesting stories about being with Cao Xinrou when she was a child in Xuzhou. Gu Yun was older than Gu Yunran, but his brothers were also different. When he was fifteen or sixteen, he had a few flowers arranged by his family around him, so he knew about love early on. He himself is not low in talent. It is common for him to go to Fireworks Willow Alley with his classmates and friends to take prostitutes on flower boats. He is a famous romantic talent in Xuzhou. Cao Xinrou, on the other hand, is a true eldest lady from a wealthy family and doesn't care about her fiancé's social interactions at all. These unattractive women are not even worthy of her special attention and inquiry, let alone being jealous of them.
How could she have imagined that one day she would bump into her fiancé and Yanhualiuxiang, with such an unbearable status. She was accompanied by four men, three of whom had been her patrons. Wei Hanzhang felt sad just thinking about it. If it were her, even if she didn't attach much importance to women's chastity in this era, she still wouldn't be able to bear it. Reliving Cao Xinrou's life experience, Wei Hanzhang said gloomily: "Actually, I know that if this matter is really discussed, it seems that Gu Yundan is not to blame, but Rou Niang is suffering so much, I don't know who to blame." Xiao Junzhan was silent for a long time after hearing this. Seeing that the little girl in his arms was distressed and about to cry again, he stretched out his hand to touch the tip of her nose and coaxed: "I think her choice was not impulsive. I'm afraid she would have died a long time ago." It was just Gu Yundan's appearance that contributed to her death that day." "What kind of statement is this?" Wei Hanzhang did not agree: "A few days before Rou Niang died, I bumped into her. At that time, she asked me to return a handkerchief to Gu Yundan, saying that we are destined to have no fate in this life. , doesn’t look like he’s seeking death.” "I heard from you that Miss Cao is not a person who is so tough-minded that she can be reborn under such circumstances," Xiao Junzhan said: "The reason why she did not seek death after joining the Jiaofang Division is that she was with Gu Yundan. That relationship is supporting her to survive." "The things she told you when she met you were the only remaining thoughts she had in her life. After the confession, she was determined to die. Meeting Gu Yundan was just the final blow to her death." Xiao Junzhan lowered his head and kissed the frowning eyebrows of the person in his arms, and said softly: "For her, death may be another kind of perfection." Wei Hanzhang put his hands on Xiao Boqian's neck, buried his face in his neck, and shed tears. She knows, she knows that all the men in the Cao family are dead, and a number of women in the education department are probably dead as well. Cao Xinrou's parents, brothers and sisters are no longer alive, and her sweetheart has seen her in the most miserable state... Death is indeed another kind of perfection. But she was still so sad. Such beautiful childhood memories are just memories after all. Most of the people in the memories are beyond recognition, or... they have died. "You're right. I've also thought about it. If I were Rou Niang, I wouldn't be able to survive." Wei Hanzhang wiped his tears on the side of his neck and sobbed: "Although I think you only have one life." You should cherish it, but... when you are in that situation, you really can't survive." Xiao Junzhan's hand on her shoulder paused for a moment, then he took her face off his shoulder and looked down at her, Said: "Don't think blindly, Ran Ran will never be in that situation in this life, and I won't be Gu Yundan." If he were Gu Yundan, he would never have watched his little girl fall from the building that day. Wei Hanzhang sniffed, not daring to tell him that when she stepped into Cao Xinrou's perspective, Gu Yundan's character was thinking of Gu Yunran. Gu Yunran, who also grew up together.
Thinking about it now, if she really encountered that kind of thing, she couldn't guarantee what Gu Yunran, who had grown up with her, would do. But she actually believed in Xiao Boqian and believed that no matter what her situation was, he would not ignore her or let her go. she. She is actually very vigilant, and she is not someone who trusts others easily, but... she still trusts Xiao Boqian, who she has known for less than half a year, more than Gu Yunran, who has been in a relationship for more than ten years. Wei Hanzhang looked at him blankly. Does this person have magical powers?
Xiao Junzhan kissed her eyes gently and said warmly: "What's wrong, looking at me like this?" "...It's nothing," Wei Hanzhang held his arm and changed the subject: "This time I go to the summer palace, I plan to bring my seventh sister, the one you saw last time. By the way, she is also with me today. I'll go out together." Xiao Junzhan said: "Okay, you can make the decision yourself." Wei Hanzhang raised his eyebrows in surprise: "Why do you react like this? My father has three daughters in total. One is my elder sister. Her grandfather is now unwilling to let her go. The other one is my seventh elder sister because she is a concubine. She was almost made a concubine by my grandfather, she looked timid, which always made me want to take more care of her." Xiao Junzhan paused, looked at her for a few breaths, and whispered, "Ran Ran, do you want to hear the truth?" "what happened?" "Based on my experience in observing people, your seventh sister..." Xiao Junzhan said softly: "She is naturally rebellious and not as docile and harmless as you said." "...!" Wei Hanzhang was shocked. He climbed up on his neck and sat up. His eyes widened and he said, "You still know the art of physiognomy?" "...No," Xiao Junzhan smiled helplessly: "Being above the temple, I have seen many people, and there is always some experience, which may not be accurate. Ran Ran does not need to take my words to heart." This is what he said. He is the prince who oversees the country. Of course, he must listen to what he says. but…… Wei Hanzhang smiled and said: "Born to be rebellious, you are born to be rebellious. Who said that women should not be ambitious? Women must be groveling, obey the four virtues, let others control their lives, and live like a puppet on strings?" She pointed at her face and said, "Look at me, can you see there is something wrong with me?" "Ran Ran, that's not what you understand." Xiao Junzhan laughed and said, "If you are willing to take care of this sister, then take care of her. It's not a big deal." After all, he is a smart person and knows who should not be offended. Wei Hanzhang reached out and poked his cheek and asked, "Tell me, am I being rebellious?"
