Su Su tilted her head and fixed her thoughtful eyes on the screen with the relief of flowers. After a long time, when Lu Nong thought Su Su did not hear her, she said lightly,""Lunong, actually, the apricot flowers are the most beautiful. The enchantment of the first red is like the most beautiful period of the wind, flowers, snow, and moon. Then, it was a faint pink color, like a young girl who had just fallen in love. Finally, it was the white that did not touch the secular world. It was as if this mortal world was just a love tribulation. After passing it, it would be the day of enlightenment.”
For a moment, Lu Nong didn't understand what he meant. She didn't know what this had to do with Pei Siyuan's marriage. Although she wasn't as smart as Su Su, she knew that the only person who could save Su Su from the abyss of suffering in the big Shiying Mountain Villa was Pei Siyuan. If Pei Siyuan really married Leng Feiyi, he would have no way out.
"I'm a descendant of the Su family. The most taboo thing for the current Emperor is to have chess pieces that he can't control. The Su family and the Leng family are examples. If Pei Siyuan marries me, he will inevitably be tempted by the Su family's treasures to rebel in the future. His father was the Grand Marshal who controlled all the military forces in the world, and he was the famous Zhenyuan General. Just this alone was enough to make the Emperor taboo. It was much safer to marry Leng Fei Yi. Leng Fei Yi was the daughter that Zhao Yi Zhu and Leng Cang Ming loved the most. Moreover, Zhao Yi Zhu was the eldest princess of Chaoyi that the late emperor had bestowed upon her. No matter what, she was considered half a member of the royal family. Marrying Leng Feiyi could be considered as holding Leng Cangming hostage and keeping an eye on Pei Siyuan.”
Su Su slowly put on a fiery red dress. Lü Nong helped her tie her hair band behind her as she asked in confusion,""According to Young Lady, isn't First Furen a spy of the Imperial Family?”
She tilted her head, a faint smile in her eyes, but it did not reach her eyes, which were filled with coldness."What do you think? I can also guess a little about the strangeness of Zhongyuan's death from what Leng Xiaxia said. It wasn't just Leng Ru, that vicious woman, who had been causing trouble. Zhao Yizhu had also helped a lot. Otherwise, with Zhong Yuan's abilities, how could he be easily eliminated by Leng Cangming? It must have been Zhao Yizhu's doing that Leng Yaya could come in time and witness Zhong Yuan's death.”
Finally, she put on a layer of blood-red chiffon, and Su Su's hair was tied up by Lü Nong with a fiery red ribbon. Lu Nong pursed her lips and smiled. Although it was a little forced, she still raised a smile."Why does Young Lady want to wear red today? Lu Nong remembered that Miss liked cold colors the most.”
Su Su smiled faintly and waved the red tassels on her sleeves.""There's blood on your body, so you have to use the same color to cover it up.”
Leaning against the door frame, Su Su's expression was indifferent. She looked unruly in her red cloak, but when she wore it on her, she only felt endless coldness. Lu Nong walked behind her and said softly,"Miss, the manor lord invites you to the Bamboo Pine Court for a chat.”
Su Su turned around with a smile on her lips and placed her hands behind her back.""Oh? It seems that he can't wait any longer. This is good too. Lü Nong, go and prepare. Perhaps we can leave this place within three days.”
"Miss, are you really confident?" Lu Nong bit her lower lip and asked worriedly.
Su Su tilted her head slightly. She seemed to like to give people an ethereal side profile. Her bright eyes and white teeth were hidden in the darkness of the other half."Even if there's only one possibility, Lunong, I'll still take the gamble. Not only for me, but also for you and Ran.”
When she said this, her expression was calm and her eyes were deep and dark. From the corner of her eyes, she looked at the young figure standing quietly outside the green railing. The corner of her mouth was curved with stubbornness.
Lu Nong pursed her lips and looked at Su Su worriedly.""Then can we use Lu Nong to accompany Young Lady?"
Su Su shook her head with a faint smile. The hem of her fiery red clothes brushed past Lü Nong's body, bringing with it a warm breeze. Lu Nong turned around and looked at the woman who was dancing like a phoenix, her almond-shaped eyes filled with sorrow and pleading.
Her red hard-soled boots had just stepped out of West Park when she bumped into Leng Feiyi, who happened to pass by. She looked much better after not seeing her for many days. She was stunned for a moment when she saw Su Su, who had just come out of the West Park. However, a bright and dazzling smile appeared on Old Man Xu's pink cheeks."Third Sister is really beautiful today."
"Yes." Su Su responded faintly and turned to leave without any hesitation. Leng Feiyi saw that Su Su did not give her face, and her face turned red as she quickly followed.
"Why are you following me?" Su Su asked indifferently.”
Leng Feiyi bit her lip and said hesitantly,""Does Third Sister know that I'm going to marry General Pei?”
Su Su's dark red cloth boots paused. She turned around, her pale lips curved into an arc, and her deep eyes looked at Leng Feiyi with a smile. However, before her smile could reach her eyes, it was frozen by a snow-like coldness."Do you think I'm going to stop your great marriage? Leng Feiyi, is there nothing else in your mind other than love?”
"I…Third Sister, how can you say that! Regardless of my current identity being different from the past, just saying that I'm your younger sister, Third Sister shouldn't speak so harshly!”
Looking at Leng Feiyi's flushed cheeks, Su Su suddenly smiled and said contemptuously,""Leng Feiyi, do you really think that I treat you as my sister? Your father humiliated my mother, your mother harmed my parents, and your teacher defiled my mother. Do you think that just because of these, I should treat you as my younger sister?”
She closed in step by step, her posture relaxed and easy-going. Every step was like a leisurely stroll, but she forced Leng Feiyi into a corner. Leng Feiyi's almond-shaped eyes widened as she nervously gripped the hem of her clothes. Her palms were drenched in cold sweat."I…Third Sister…But I've always treated you as my biological sister…"
"Is that so? Then he really had to thank Fourth Miss for her good intentions. However, in the end, he had let her down. The word 'thank' was fake, so it was better not to thank her.”After saying that, he turned around and left without any intention of staying.
Leng Feiyi's chest was heaving up and down. She stood on the spot, not knowing what to do until a pair of white soft boots appeared in front of her. Leng Feiyi raised her head and looked at the man in front of her. Her picturesque eyebrows were slightly furrowed, and her eyes were filled with gentleness and heartache. She thought, when such a man first met Third Sister, had he been charmed by her otherworldly appearance?
"Fei Yi, you don't have to take her words to heart.”He held the delicate girl in his arms and let her rest on his strong chest. Leng Feiyi looked at the green shade on the cobblestone road in a daze. He had come long ago and heard those words, but he did not stand up for her. Was the woman confronting her Third Sister…
"I didn't…I just…I just don't know how to get close to Third Sister sometimes…In my heart, she's like a banished immortal, far away from the mortal world, but there's the boundless mortal world behind her. Ever since I was young, I respected and feared her.”Leng Feiyi murmured with tears in her eyes. Pei Siyuan gently stroked her back, but his eyes were flickering with unknown emotions.
Su Su stood with her hands behind her back in the bamboo courtyard. She stood tall and straight. Her long black hair was tied into a high ponytail by a red ribbon. She looked stunning and valiant.
She looked at Leng Cangming, who was fighting alone, with a cold gaze. Leng Cangming only glanced at her long hair when she came, the smile on his lips was gentle and light. The two of them were silent for a long time. Finally, Leng Cangming spoke slowly,"You should know that the Emperor personally arranged for Siyuan and Fei Yi to be married today.”
Su Su smiled faintly and lowered her eyes slightly. Her voice was neither hurried nor slow,""What does it have to do with me?"
"Siyuan probably likes you, but you're too smart. You're not the woman he needs.”Leng Cangming put down a black piece and sat up straight with a faint smile, looking straight into Su Su's eyes.
She muttered to herself, her eyes filled with a mocking smile."Then for a smart woman like me, can I only find a stupid husband?”
As if he didn't expect her to respond to him in this way, a trace of impatience flashed across Leng Cangming's eyes. He pinched a black stone between his two fingers and said indifferently,"Ah Wan…the woman who tried to assassinate me that night was pierced through her lute bone by this black piece. She must be in pain…right?”
He held Su Su's eyes tightly, as if he wanted to see through her emotions. Su Su's pale lips curled into a faint smile, which looked very much like Su Rouying's usual smile.""Isn't the manor lord afraid that the lady will come back for revenge?”
Leng Cangming didn't care about her teasing and smiled warmly along with her,""Ah Wan, do you want to leave the manor to see the outside world?”
Su Su was stunned. She did not know that this old fox would suddenly change the topic. She calmed herself down and brushed her sleeves that were bound by Liusu. She lowered her eyes to hide the emotions in her eyes."Since the Manor Lord has chosen to speak frankly, it would be too tactless of me to continue playing Tai Chi. Yes, I do want to leave the manor, but not to see the martial world. I want to leave the Misty Shadow Manor completely and never return.”
"Do you think I will let my own flesh and blood wander outside?”
"Have you ever admitted that Ran and I are your flesh and blood?”
All the living beings in the air froze in an instant. Su Su placed her hands behind her back and looked coldly into Leng Cangming's sharp eyes. The smile on her lips had not faded.
Leng Cangming suddenly laughed as he approached Su Su with his navy blue boots embroidered with flying snakes.""You really have guts. Good! As long as you help me obtain the Stream Purging Sword Technique, you can use your intelligence to frame the Xuanxu Sect for stealing the sword technique. This freedom will be granted sooner or later.”
" Sect of Mystery…" Su Su looked up at Leng Cangming, who was only two steps away from her. Her face was cold, but she was thinking about it in her heart. Xuan Xu was located in the extremely cold land at the North Pole of the Celestial Empire. It was unknown how many disciples there were, but their methods were all ruthless and powerful. According to the Jianghu news that Lunong had gathered, the Xuanxu Sect was actually the so-called public enemy of the righteous path…an evil sect.
She smiled and looked up. Her eyes were still as dark as ever."Manor Lord, you must keep your word."
Leng Cangming smiled lightly." Of course. But you must go with Pei Siyuan to get the sword technique."”
Thinking of the man in the moon-white robe, Su Su's brows unconsciously furrowed.""Manor Lord, aren't you afraid that this future son-in-law will run away with me? At that time, Fourth Miss would really cry.”
