son, don't mess around

Chapter 105 The Night Before Parting
Hearing Lin Jiangnian's voice from outside the door, Liu Su was startled for a moment, and then felt relieved.

As soon as the thought of vigilance was suspended, he almost subconsciously let go.

Looking down at the letter in his hand, he gently kneaded it with his bare hands, and it disappeared in smoke with the urging of his internal force.

After doing all this, she was completely relieved, and then took a deep breath, her complexion returned to normal, she came to the door and opened it.

Outside the door, Lin Jiangnian's familiar figure appeared.He looked at her with slightly joyful eyes.

Looking at Lin Jiangnian who appeared here in the middle of the night, she was instinctively wary.He had just left from him, why did he come after him again?

"Is there a problem?"

"Come and see you!"

Lin Jiangnian looked at Liu Su at the door. His hair was still wet after taking a bath, his fair skin glowed with moisture, and his whole body looked more and more glamorous.

Especially that cold and slightly soft face, pink and dusty, making people want to take a bite.

Lin Jiangnian gazed silently for a moment, until he noticed Liu Su's increasingly vigilant gaze, and then he came back to his senses.

"correct!"

Lin Jiangnian waved his hand: "I saw you walking away in a hurry and didn't eat anything all day. Are you hungry?"

Liu Su opened her mouth, subconsciously wanting to say that she is not hungry.

...What does it mean that he ran over to show courteousness this late at night?
But as soon as the words came to his lips, he held back again.

She is indeed hungry!
After waking up and tossing until now, my stomach is already hungry.Her current status is still the maid of Lin Wangfu, and it has passed the meal time for the servants of the Wangfu, so if there is no accident, she can only starve tonight.

To Liu Su, it was nothing to be hungry, but when he was about to say something, he suddenly smelled the aroma of food.

She was slightly taken aback, turned around, and saw several maids walking in the courtyard.

"Your Highness, the meal you want the kitchen to prepare is ready!"

Lin Jiangnian nodded: "Send it in."

Liu Su was a little distracted, surprised and stared at the maid in the courtyard bringing the food into her room, and left after finishing these.Liu Su stared at the food on the table for a moment, then suddenly turned to look at Lin Jiangnian.

"What do you see me doing?"

Lin Jiangnian was still smiling.

Liu Su took a deep breath, how could she not be aware of his intentions?
After a moment of silence, he spoke just now: "Don't think that I will forgive you if you are like this!"

"what are you thinking?"

Lin Jiangnian saw that she still had a stern face, waved her hand, and stepped into the room.

"Don't get me wrong... I feel a little hungry, and eating alone is too boring, so I just came to ask you to have a meal with me."

As Lin Jiangnian spoke, he came to a table and sat down.

Liu Su had a cold face, and there seemed to be a hint of anger in her eyes.

"What are you still doing?"

Seeing that she didn't move, Lin Jiangnian waved his hand immediately: "Come here and have dinner with me."

Liu Su still didn't respond.

"What? You don't even listen to my son?"

Lin Jiangnian squinted at her: "You little maid, do you still want to rebel?"

Although he said so on his mouth, there was a meaningful smile on his face.

Obviously it was done on purpose.

The shame and resentment in Liu Su's eyes became more and more obvious, this bastard was clearly trying to anger her.

An expression of anger emerged, and a bit of sullenness appeared in her beautiful eyes, but then she seemed to think of something, and a gloomy color flashed in her eyes.After being silent for a moment, he restrained all his emotions.

Then he stepped forward with a blank expression and sat down opposite Lin Jiangnian.

Seeing this, Lin Jiangnian was a little surprised.

I thought it would take a lot of talking, but I didn't expect her to sit down obediently?
Liu Su sat down expressionlessly, and glanced at the meals on the table. Although the meals were simple, they were all high-quality and rare ingredients in the palace.Although the food and treatment of the servants in the palace is also good, but such a meal as before is unimaginable.

Looking up, she saw Lin Jiangnian looking at her with a smile on her face.

Liu Su was still expressionless, and gave him a light look.

did not speak.

Have a meal!

……

The meal ended in silence.

Halfway through, neither of them spoke, as if maintaining a delicate balance.After eating and drinking, Lin Jiangnian narrowed his eyes slightly and sat aside to rest.

The night was quiet, but it seemed that he had no intention of leaving.

Liu Su finally spoke after being silent for a long time.

"I'm leaving."

The tone was very calm, as if talking about an unimportant matter.

Lin Jiangnian, who was originally full of leisure and relaxation, gradually lost the smile when he heard this.

He sat up and looked at Liu Su in front of him.Seeing that her face was still as usual, she looked at him calmly.

silence.

"When?"

Lin Jiangnian asked.

Liu Su lowered her eyes: "Tomorrow."

Hearing this, Lin Jiangnian felt an indescribable emotion in his heart, and couldn't help but ask, "Do you have to go?"

"Ah."

Liu Su didn't look at Lin Jiangnian again, but looked down at the table.

She seemed to feel that the atmosphere in the room was a bit dull, and she felt flustered that she couldn't explain.

It's hard to describe the feeling.

She took a deep breath, raised her eyes again, met Lin Jiangnian's eyes, and said in a deep voice, "Master, I've received a letter!"

"Master?"

Lin Jiangnian narrowed his eyes suddenly: "Is there any eyeliner from your Celestial Sect in Linwang's Mansion?"

She has not left the palace today, how did she know the letter from the leader?The only possibility...is that there are her internal agents in Linwang's mansion?
"Ah."

Liu Su spoke calmly.

"Your leader, call you back?"

Liu Su still nodded.

"Do you have to go back?"

Liu Su was silent for a while: "The plan to assassinate Lin Hengzhong failed, the leader must have known about it. This time he personally wrote a letter to call me back, there must be something urgent in the church..."

She didn't continue, but Lin Jiangnian already understood.

She is the saint of the Tenjin Sect and the core figure of the Tenjin Sect.Now that the assassination of King Lin failed, her situation must be extremely dangerous.Not to mention what the next plan of the Tianshen Cult is, if the assassination fails, Liu Su must be summoned.

Even... accountability!
Thinking of this, Lin Jiangnian felt a little uneasy: "If you fail to assassinate King Lin, will your leader punish you?"

Liu Su lowered her eyes slightly, fell silent for a while, then shook her head: "I don't know."

"In that case, why go back?"

Lin Jiangnian looked at her.

Liu Su was silent for a while this time, before she said, "I have to go back and do something."

"what's up?"

"Very important!"

Liu Su looked up at him and took a deep breath: "I have to go back and verify this matter myself...so, I have to go back."

She didn't continue to explain, Lin Jiangnian remained silent and didn't ask any more questions.

If she didn't want to answer, she really couldn't ask.

So……

"Will you come back?"

Lin Jiangnian asked again.

A question that has already been asked once, but he still wants to ask it again.

This time, Liu Su didn't answer him immediately.She just stared at him blankly, silent for a long time.

"Maybe."

After a long time, she spoke softly.

Perhaps it was because when she really realized that she was about to leave, she felt a little bit in a trance.

Reluctant?

Or have other emotions?

She herself doesn't know.

"Maybe?"

When Lin Jiangnian heard this, his eyes lit up slightly.So, she still has plans to come back?
Liu Su looked at him and said lightly, "Who knows?"

"Maybe someday in the future, when I'm poor and living on the streets, maybe I'll come to you, Prince Lin's son, for a meal?"

"Maybe, I won't come back!"

She spoke calmly, but Lin Jiangnian frowned.What you said, why is it like parting from life to death?
"Where is your leader? Where do you plan to go when you leave here this time?"

Lin Jiangnian asked.

Liu Su shook her head lightly: "I don't know yet."

Lin Jiangnian frowned: "Isn't the main altar of your Deity Sect in the old place of Miaojiang?"

"The main altar is indeed over there, but..."

Liu Su shook her head lightly: "The leader is not here."

"The leader's identity is mysterious, and he seldom appears in the main altar all year round. The people who are in charge of the affairs of the religion are always those few guardians."

"This time the leader called me back, I don't know what the next step is."

Hearing this, Lin Jiangnian fell silent.

Even she herself doesn't know where to go next, doesn't it mean...

"Then, can we meet again in the future?"

Lin Jiangnian sighed.

For some reason, it feels like there is a bit of an atmosphere of separation between life and death.She left this time, when will the next time we meet?
In this day and age, once many people separate, they may never see each other again.

"If given the chance..."

Liu Su paused, and glanced at him: "Probably there will be."

"Really?"

"maybe."

"..."

Lin Jiangnian took a deep breath and sighed: "To be honest, I don't want you to leave."

Liu Su didn't speak, and there was still no expression on her face.It's just the occasional flash of eyes in the eyes, which seems to have a hint of joy.

There seems to be a little pride.

"Perhaps, I should imprison you in Linwang Mansion, so that you can't leave here for the rest of your life... I really thought about it."

Lin Jiangnian spoke suddenly.

The expression on Liu Su's face froze, and she immediately stared: "How dare you?!"

He wanted to imprison himself?
How dare you? !

Thinking of a certain possibility, she immediately gritted her teeth.

"But after thinking about it, I gave up. If I really do this, you will hate me forever, right?" Lin Jiangnian sighed.

Liu Su remained expressionless: "It's good that you know."

"So, if you want to leave, I can't stop you. If that's the case, it's better to get together and leave!"

Lin Jiang smiled young and raised his eyebrows: "Tonight, is this my practice for you?"

Liu Su was silent, staring at Lin Jiangnian for a while, looking at the relaxed and somewhat joking words on his face, her beautiful eyes retracted: "Since it is practice, shouldn't there be wine?"

"That's right, there should be wine."

Lin Jiangnian said, got up and went to the door.

Soon, two jars of wine were brought in from the yard outside the door.

Seeing this scene, Liu Su's eyes narrowed, "Where did you get the wine?"

"It was brought by the maid before."

Lin Jiangnian held two jars of wine and put them on the table, with a slightly smug look: "Since you left without saying a word, I already guessed something."

Liu Su was silent, she had to admit that the guy in front of her really knew her very well after getting along with her day and night in the past two months.

At this moment, the trace of reluctance in Liu Su's heart became even stronger.

For a moment, she really had a strong desire to stay.

The saint of the Celestial Sect had already died when she failed to assassinate King Lin, so she could completely hide her name and stay with another identity?
stay here?

However, when this thought popped up, she quickly took a deep breath and calmed down.

Since last night, her mind has been completely affected.Began to become indecisive, even...soft-hearted.

This is a feeling she has never had before, all of this is due to...

Blame him!

Thinking of this, Liu Su bit her lower lip lightly, and there was a bit of resentment in her cold eyes.

Lin Jiangnian opened the wine jar on the table, and the aroma of the wine quickly wafted through the room.

"Tonight, you and I won't go home drunk?"

Lin Jiangnian poured two bowls of wine.

Liu Su glanced at him expressionlessly: "No."

"Huh?" Lin Jiangnian raised his eyes.

"I'm afraid you'll mess around after drinking!"

Liu Su looked warily.

Lin Jiangnian: "..."

……

Silent night.

The courtyard was silent.

At the table, both of their faces were slightly drunk.

The spirits were strong, and the room was filled with a somewhat drunken atmosphere, which seemed to be accompanied by a somewhat strange expression.

"It's getting late!"

Liu Su's cold complexion was a bit flushed, like a peach blossom, and her beautiful eyes were full of water, but she still seemed to maintain a bit of reason and sobriety.

"It's getting late, almost!"

Her voice was very soft, with a hint of drunkenness: "You should go back."

Lin Jiangnian was drunk, his head was in a daze, and he seemed to be quite drunk.

"Can't move, sleepy, sleepy..."

Lin Jiangnian staggered to his feet as he spoke drunkenly. Before taking two steps, he suddenly staggered and fell on the bed not far away, motionless.

Seeing this scene, there was a trace of shame and anger in Liu Su's eyes.

"Get up for me!"

"...Don't pretend to be dead, go back to sleep!"

Where is she not clear about this guy's intentions?
Does this guy want to rely on her tonight?

Seeing that Lin Jiangnian didn't respond, Liu Su got up and came to the side of the bed, seeing Lin Jiangnian lying on her bed with his eyes closed and seemed to be asleep.

Immediately got angry!
Playing a rogue with her, right?
"stand up!"

Liu Su kicked him, and Lin Jiangnian fell into a drowsy sleep, motionless.

As if really drunk and passed out.

But how could Liu Su believe it?
Would a drunk person still be so sober to find her bed before falling down?
Immediately said shamefully and angrily: "Don't pretend to me, hurry up..."

She was going to pull Lin Jiangnian immediately, but in the next second, Lin Jiangnian who was still lying on the bed suddenly gave her a hand.Liu Su was caught off guard and staggered. The next second, she was pulled into Lin Jiang's arms vigorously, and the two of them fell on the bed together.

"You, let me go?!"

Liu Su was immediately ashamed and angry, and her pretty face, which was already blushing, became even more blushing.

Struggling hard.

"Don't, don't move around...sleep, sleep..."

Lin Jiangnian's dazed voice came from his ear, as if he was already very drunk.

But he held her tightly in his arms, motionless.

Liu Su's delicate body was tense, her pretty face was hot, and her eyes were full of shame.After struggling to no avail, he bit his lip tightly, stared at this guy in embarrassment, raised his head and stared at his face for a long time, then lost his mind again.

In the end, she didn't know what she thought of, Liu Su sighed lightly, but didn't struggle anymore.

Her martial arts had recovered quite a bit, and it would not be difficult to break free, but she seemed to give up resistance.Just letting Lin Jiangnian hug her in his arms, feeling the warm and familiar scent, an indescribable emotion surged up, and his heart thumped.

She lowered her head, concealing the thumping emotions in her heart, as if quietly experiencing this rare last night.

Are you leaving tomorrow?
Thinking of this, Liu Su's heart tightened a little, feeling a sense of failure.

Mixed feelings.

The room fell into dead silence, as if indulging in this short and rare warm atmosphere.

On the bed, after a long time, it seemed that Lin Jiangnian beside him was sleeping soundly, breathing gently.And there was no other movement except hugging her, Liu Su's hanging heart slightly let go, and her tense delicate body gradually relaxed.

Slightly raising his eyes, he quietly stared at Lin Jiangnian's sleeping face.

Delicate, fair, with sharp edges and corners.Perhaps because of the two months of martial arts training, his body has lost a bit of a scholar's soft temperament, and has a bit more toughness.

Liu Su stared blankly for a long time, the last trace of coldness in her beautiful eyes also turned into a moment of tenderness.

She looked back, lowered her head, rubbed her head slightly, seemed to find a comfortable position, curled up in Lin Jiangnian's arms and fell asleep in a daze.

This night, she slept very peacefully.
