The concubine is soft and delicate, making her the treacherous minister's white moonlight

Chapter 105 Appointment
Lin Mowan was stunned for a moment. Yuzhi stood up and answered, "Yes." After she said that, she looked back at Lin Mowan who was sitting beside her suspiciously: "Who is it?"

Lin Mowan knew in her heart that it must be Gongshu Beicheng.

The waiter looked at the two of them and said, "I don't know either. I'm just here to pass on a message. He said he's Miss Lin's friend."

Lin Mowan nodded: "I understand, you can go out first."

The waiter nodded slightly, turned around and left. Yuzhi still asked suspiciously: "Miss, do you know him?"

Facing Yuzhi's question, Lin Mowan lowered her eyes hesitantly, thought carefully for a moment, and then said, "It should be the sisters from Yuxianglou. They said they wanted to invite me to dinner a few days ago. Now is a good time."

She had already stood up, but Yuzhi was a little worried: "Miss, do you need me to go with you?"

Lin Mowan handed it to her and smiled comfortingly: "No need, if the dishes are served later, you can eat first, I will come back to meet you later."

Seeing her so excited, Yuzhi didn't want to spoil her fun. Although she was still worried, she nodded and replied: "Okay, then be careful girl."

"Yeah." Lin Mowan nodded, turned and left the room.

Standing outside the house, she looked back at Yuzhi who was inside the house, with some apology and as if to make sure that she did not follow.

I came out of the house and found the door according to the room number provided by the waiter. I looked at the closed door and found that there was no guard at the door.

For a moment, she was a little confused, but since she was already here, she naturally had to go in and take a look.

While thinking, she knocked on the door, and almost the next second a familiar voice came from inside the room: "Come in."

Sure enough, it was the voice of Gongshu Beicheng.

Lin Mowan did not hesitate any longer. She pushed the door open, closed it again, and walked into the inner room. Looking at the sumptuous dishes in front of her and Gongshu Beicheng who was carefully pouring wine, Lin Mowan's footsteps suddenly paused. She just stood not far away and stared at the scene in a daze.

Gongshu Beicheng, who had been away for a long time, looked up and saw Lin Mowan standing there stupidly. He stood up quickly and smiled gently as usual: "Come on, hurry up and cook. I don't know what dishes you like, so I just ordered a few at random. Come and try them. If they don't suit your taste, I'll ask them to change them."

After hearing that, Lin Mowan slowly stepped forward and glanced at the dishes on the table. It seemed that they didn't know what kind of flavor she liked, so they ordered one or two of each dish.

After Lin Mowan sat down, he handed the poured wine to her. He looked very smiling and in a very good mood, as if having a meal with Lin Mowan was a very happy thing.

Then, he picked up the serving chopsticks beside him, not caring about himself, but picked up some food for her first, and introduced it softly: "Try it, this is their signature dish here, I heard that many people like it."

Lin Mowan smiled and didn't refuse. She picked up the chopsticks and put the food in the bowl into her mouth. Gongshu Beicheng was also very happy: "How is it?"

Lin Mowan nodded: "It's delicious."

Seeing this, Gongshu Beicheng seemed to be relieved, and then continued with a smile: "I'm glad you like it. I was afraid you wouldn't be used to it."

Lin Mowan smiled and shook her head, not saying anything more. She always felt that something was on her mind. After hesitating for a moment, she got straight to the point and said, "Your Highness, to be honest, I am willing to come to the appointment not just to accompany you for dinner, but I also came for a purpose."

Upon hearing this, the smile on Gongshu Beicheng's face froze, but he was not displeased. He just lowered his eyes thoughtfully, and he looked a little worried. Lin Mowan naturally stopped beating around the bush and said bluntly: "Your Highness must have known me before, right?"

"..."

As Lin Mowan expected, Gongshu Beicheng remained silent, which made Lin Mowan more convinced of her words. However, she didn't quite understand why he refused to recognize her since they knew each other?

Seeing his complicated expression, which seemed to be somewhat difficult, Lin Mowan lowered her eyes and asked again: "Your Highness refuses to recognize me, is it because I have done something wrong to Your Highness in the past? Then what is the relationship between me and Your Highness? When did we meet?"

In fact, logically speaking, she didn't think she would know Gongshu Beicheng. After all, for two people with such different statuses like them, the only relationship that could maintain a balanced relationship for a long time was that of master and servant.

But looking at the way Gongshu Beicheng looked at her, and his behavior when they first met, it seemed that his relationship was telling Lin Mowan that there was more to it than that.

She really wanted to figure out what was going on, but Gongshu Beicheng kept his mouth shut and she couldn't ask anyone else, so she had no way of finding out.

Then, she realized that the person in front of her might be her only breakthrough so far.

What on earth did she forget? Who did she forget? Or in other words, what relationship did she have with someone?

Sometimes, she always sensitively felt that everyone around her knew the truth, except her.

Now facing Lin Mowan's question, Gongshu Beicheng obviously still didn't want to answer. Instead, he sighed heavily in embarrassment, picked up the glass on the table, and drank the wine in the glass, as if he was speechless and wanted to drown his sorrows in wine.

After a long while, he slowly spoke: "Wan... Alas... Miss Lin, the past is no longer important. We should always look forward, right?"

Lin Mowan didn't say anything, but just looked at him straight. She suddenly realized that whether it was his expression or his words, Gongshu Beicheng seemed to be guiding her to be more certain of her guess.

How is this going?

Lin Mowan was stunned. On the one hand, she was surprised at her own purpose of doubting Gongshu Beicheng. On the other hand, she could not rule out the possibility that the other party really knew something.

Then, she lowered her eyelids slightly, and the rationality that had just been taken away by impulse gradually returned. How could she forget that this method of induction and suggestion was also something she often used.

Like Jiang Youxi, Guo Yinli, or Pei Jingjian, didn't she use the same method, first luring them into her own language trap, and then giving them ample hints, which is more effective in making people fall than saying it directly.

Thinking of this, she calmed down and spoke with some regret: "Then your highness means that the things between you and me are all unimportant? Whether you can remember it or whether it exists or not is not important, is that right?"

As she said this, her expression was filled with unconcealed grievance and loneliness, and even her eyes turned red at a speed visible to the naked eye. Tears were welling up in her eyes, as if they might fall at any moment. She looked pitiful and helpless, like a little white flower standing in the snow that might be blown down at any moment.

Just by looking at it, Gongshu Beicheng's heart couldn't help but sink. A trace of pity arose spontaneously, and his eyes softened a little unconsciously.

"That's not what I meant." Gongshu Beicheng said.

Lin Mowan shook her head, tears sliding down her cheeks, her long eyelashes wet with tears, she looked even more pitiful. She said, "It's okay, I know everything, Your Highness doesn't need to explain."
