The Red Mansion Big Liar.

Chapter 441: The Conflicted Jiao Xing

early morning.

A pavilion and a main hall built on the mountain.

"yawn!"

Jiao Xing, who was still sleepy, couldn't help but yawn.

Xiangling, who was standing by, said with a guilty look on her face: "Sister...did you not sleep well last night?"

She was not good at concealing her feelings, and when she thought of last night's madness, a blush appeared on her face, making her already rosy face look even more charming.

Jiao Xing saw it all. Although Xiangling was very exhausted last night, just by looking at her complexion, she could tell how fulfilled she was and that she had slept very well.

She was filled with envy and her eyes involuntarily drifted towards the tall figure outside the house, but she happened to catch a glimpse of Zhang Yunyi finishing his training and turning around. She hurriedly withdrew her gaze and forced herself to suppress the shame and irritation in her heart.

Trying to slow down your tone, he said, “No!”

Zhang Yunyi came into the room, glanced at Jiao Xing who looked listless, sat down between the two of them, and asked with a smile, "What are you talking about?"

Although it was early in the morning, the scorching heat of midsummer did not reduce, and this set of boxing required a lot of exercise.

The masculine scent mixed with the smell of sweat came to her face. Jiao Xing couldn't help but take a deep breath. Out of the corner of her eye she caught a glimpse of her shirt, which was wet and sticky with sweat.

Jiao Xing looked at the outlined strong curves, and the erotic music of last night rang in her ears. The scene of being pressed tightly under this strong and powerful body also emerged in her mind involuntarily.

She suddenly felt difficulty breathing, and began to breathe in and out through her mouth and nose.

Xiangling was a simple-minded person and did not notice Jiaoxing's strange behavior. She looked at Zhang Yunyi and said shyly, "I was asking how you slept last night!"

"Oh!" Zhang Yunyi said meaningfully, "Didn't it bother my sister-in-law?"

Jiao Xing blushed immediately and quickly covered it up by saying, "No... I disturbed you. I won't disturb my sister at night in the future, so that you won't be together for too long."

In the past, she was reluctant to live with Xiangling, and even thought of using Xiangling as a shield.

But now, his thoughts have changed, and he hopes to give Zhang Yunyi some convenience.

Zhang Yunyi laughed in silence and thought to himself, if you had been so tactful earlier, I wouldn't have had to go through so much trouble.

Xiangling heard this, but felt a little embarrassed and said: "Sister, you don't have to be like this. Master doesn't come here every day. When Master is not here, I also want to have someone to talk to and relieve my boredom!"

She was a simple-minded person and said whatever was on her mind. However, the implication of her words was obvious. When Jiao Xing heard it, she felt even more uncomfortable.

However, if I put myself in her shoes, if I were to switch places with Xiangling, I probably wouldn't want to be interfered with. It's a good thing that she could endure it for so long.

Although the bone-melting and soul-stirring feeling made her unable to stop, even if she could only listen to it once, it could comfort herself.

But in the end it's just scratching the surface and not solid enough. How can it compare to being there in person with real weapons?
He could only reject Xiangling's kindness: "How can my brother-in-law come over and greet me..."

Xiangling thought she was just considering Zhang Yunyi's feelings, so she quickly hugged Zhang Yunyi's arm and said coquettishly: "Master! I'm afraid of causing trouble, why don't you just say something!~"

"Hmm!" Zhang Yunyi coughed dryly, looked at Xiangling with an innocent face, shook his head helplessly and said, "Xiangling had a miserable early life, it would be nice if sister-in-law could spend more time with her and talk to her!"

Jiao Xing looked at Zhang Yunyi in some surprise. Her original intention was to give Zhang Yunyi some convenience, but this could only be understood but not expressed in words.

If I had to spend time like this in Xiangling's room every time, how would I have the energy to look for me?

She couldn't figure out for a moment whether Zhang Yunyi had other plans or she didn't hear the implied meaning clearly.

After hesitating for a while, he finally nodded and said, "Then...next time my brother-in-law wants to come over, please just let me know...I'll go next door..."

Although Jia Yucun warned him in person, he just went with the flow and agreed half-heartedly.

If Zhang Yunyi didn't have this intention, she would definitely not dare to take the initiative. However, she still had hope in her heart. Even if Zhang Yunyi really didn't have the intention to cheat, and she was just thinking wrongly, it would be good to be able to listen to the sound.

When she said this, Zhang Yunyi looked over in surprise.

Last night, when he passed by Jiao Xing's room, he clearly heard some commotion inside. He had originally intended to make her give up, so although the noise wasn't deafening, he didn't believe that she didn't hear anything.

Moreover, her initiative to propose not to live with Xiangling just now undoubtedly confirmed this point, but now she insisted on living next door, which made Zhang Yunyi imagine a lot.

Because there was a hint of speculation, there was a different kind of spiritual meaning in his eyes.

Jiao Xing saw his eyes wandering around her, staring at her meaningfully, and she suddenly felt like she was being watched. She felt upset and couldn't help but become restless, and even felt a little dry in the mouth.

He swallowed hard, feeling something was wrong, and quickly covered up, "Before the master left, he specifically told me to be honest with my brother-in-law... At the beginning, when we suddenly heard that you were impeached, we thought that if things didn't go well, we could at least provide some protection for the two elders, Xiangling and the children, so we deliberately didn't come to your house. I hope my brother-in-law won't blame me!"

She saw the look in his eyes just now, but he ignored her kindness.

It's hard not to wonder if Zhang Yun逸 had some concerns. She had originally wanted to be half-hidden, use double entendres, and give him some hints, but when it came to being honest, she felt it was too shameful after all, and she couldn't help but add the last sentence to cover it up.

However, even so, after she finished saying these two sentences, her face was already red and she was fidgeting.

Jiao Xing's face flushed and her eyes were evasive. In Zhang Yunyi's eyes, it was obvious that she was guilty.

Of course, she was indeed feeling guilty, but this kind of guilt was not the same as that of the other kind, which made Zhang Yunyi mistakenly believe that she was not good at lying.

Although Jia Yucun had never been open-hearted to him, and was even a little ungrateful to him, he was not like the Jia family after all. They had never taken the initiative to plot against him. At most, they just avoided suspicion, and Zhen Shiyin's words smoothed things over.

In addition, Gu Dashou was interested in recruiting people for the King of Qin, and he was in the south of the Yangtze River, fighting in the front.

Even if it was Jiao Xing who took the initiative, it would be unjustifiable to target her at this time.

Otherwise, once Jia Yucun returned with his merit, not only would the relationship between them be completely broken, but even the King of Qin would have complaints against him.

He was not so obsessed with sex that he would make enemies everywhere for no reason. He quickly put aside his thoughts and said sincerely, "Brother Yucun is so thoughtful, and sister-in-law is so frank. Yun Yi is ashamed!"

Jiao Xing didn't know whether Zhang Yunyi understood or not, but she had already used all her strength to say those words just now.

How can I even open my mouth at this moment?
Xiangling didn't realize that the two of them had their own ulterior motives. When Jiao Xing avoided visiting her, she was still in the hot spring villa.

This is the first time I know the hidden story.

Seeing Jiao Xing blushing, he thought she was ashamed and quickly comforted her: "Why are you and your family still talking behind each other's backs? You didn't take advantage of me... Even if something really happened, there is no reason for me to implicate you, not to mention that this is to leave a way out for us!"

Jiao Xing lowered her head in shame and snorted softly: "Hmm!~"

Sincerity is the best killer move.

Jiao Xing's mentality is quite complicated.

From a maid, she was promoted to the position of wife by Jia Yucun and became a proper official wife. Needless to say, she was very grateful to Jia Yucun.

Therefore, even if Jia Yucun asked her to devote herself to him, she never went against his wishes.

However, considering that he would not be able to come back for a while, and thinking that he could not make the same mistake again, he decided to delay for a while to avoid getting deeper into trouble.

Originally, the resistance in my heart had been shattered by what happened last night.

But facing Xiangling's sincere face, he couldn't help feeling ashamed.

She thought to herself that she had followed Jia Yucun's instructions meticulously and done her job well. If she had done anything unnecessary, she would have been really sorry to Xiangling.
