Leng Feiyi frowned when she saw Leng Suwan, who was dressed in a plain black cloth. She was about to say something when her eyes met Leng Suwan's. At that moment, a sense of inferiority welled up in her heart. Her third sister had always been like this. When she was at her simplest, it was the most difficult for people to look away. That natural temperament attracted everyone, making people want to get close but not know how to get close. As long as she stood there, no one could ignore her…
"Third Sister is even more beautiful than usual tonight!”Leng Feiyi praised sincerely, and there was a hint of jealousy in her tone. Leng Suwan looked down at Leng Suran and said blandly,""Is that so? I think so too."
Leng Feiyi was choked by the rude words. She touched her nose awkwardly and laughed dryly as she walked side by side with Leng Suwan. Leng Fei Yi was a cheerful person and couldn't stand such a cold atmosphere. She glanced at Leng Suran who was so quiet as if she didn't exist and said in surprise,""Su Ran also came out? It was really rare! He remembered that the last time he saw Su Ran leave West Park was on New Year's Eve! Everyone in the village had almost forgotten about Su Ran's existence!”
Leng Suwan suddenly stopped, and so did the two rows of maids, staring at the lanterns in their hands as if they could see something from them. The servant girls in the West Court pursed their lips and did not speak, but their palms were constantly sweating. In the West Court, everyone with signs of life knew that Third Young Lady's reverse scale was Fifth Young Lady…..
Sure enough, Leng Suwan smiled faintly. In the dark night, Leng Feiyi could not see it clearly, but she suddenly understood. Leng Suwan approached Leng Feiyi and said in a voice that was loud enough for everyone to hear,""Leng Feiyi, do you think everyone is like you, pampered and lawless? You're wrong, I'm not, Su Ran is not. But one day, I, Leng Suwan, will pay you back double what you owe us. How many cold gazes have you suffered…There is still time, I will definitely let you have a good taste.”
Leng Feiyi widened her almond-shaped eyes and took a step back, looking at Leng Su Wan who was looking down at her in the dark. At that moment, she felt that Leng Su Wan was not joking, the disgust was mercilessly pressing on her body. Leng Su Wan's eyes made her want to escape! But before she could react, Leng Suwan had already walked away with Leng Suran, followed by a group of maids from West Garden...
When Leng Suwan led Leng Suran to the drill ground, Meng Yu and Leng Ruoli were chatting happily. Leng Ruoli lowered her head slightly, displaying the shyness and gentleness of a girl. Her eyes were suffused with a light that could drown everything. It was as if other than Meng Yu, there was no one else there. However, when Meng Yu saw Leng Su Wan, his amber-colored eyes sparkled with gentleness. He walked towards Leng Suwan. Leng Ruoli stood there, the light in her eyes disappeared and turned into a pool of stagnant water. She followed behind Meng Yu and quietly walked to Leng Suwan.
Leng Suwan naturally saw all of this, she tilted her head slightly and whispered to Leng Suran,""Ran, tonight, you have to sit obediently beside sister and brother Meng Yu, understand?”
Although her voice was low, it still entered Leng Ruoli and Meng Yu's ears. Meng Yu nodded with a smile, his slender hand caressed Leng Suran's soft hair affectionately. Leng Ruoli looked up at Leng Suwan, but when she met Leng Suwan's gaze, she lowered her eyes in panic. His lips curled up slightly, but there was an indescribable bitterness.
Leng Suwan and Meng Yu brought Leng Suran to the table while Leng Ruoli and Leng Feiyu sat opposite them. The entire drill ground was surrounded by short tables, surrounded by palace lanterns. Behind every short table, there was a servant girl holding a palace lantern. A few servant girls filed in with red sandalwood plates in their hands. They placed the exquisite dishes on the low table in an orderly manner and slowly retreated. Each person had a short table in front of them, and there were only a few dishes. However, after finishing a dish, there would be a special servant girl responsible for tearing off the empty plate, and another servant girl would fill the empty plate with another dish.
More and more people were gathered at the banquet. Leng Feiyi also arrived early. When she saw Leng Suwan, she subconsciously avoided her and sat on the opposite side of the drill ground.
"I remember that you dislike places like this the most.”Meng Yu said slowly, staring at Leng Su Wan who was carefully serving Leng Suran. Leng Suwan stood there, looking down at the green bamboo shoot between her chopsticks, her voice faint,""Perhaps it's because I've seen so many places in my previous life that I've become extremely disgusted with such places in this life.”
He lowered his head and murmured softly,""Past life…Wanwan, do you believe in past lives and present lives?”She turned her head, her calm eyes carrying a hint of sadness.""Of course I don't believe it, but if retribution comes, I have no choice but to believe it.”
"What do you mean?"
He wanted to ask more, but she didn't want to answer. At this moment, Leng Cangming's laughter could be heard from afar. He looked over and saw Leng Cangming in a navy blue brocade robe and Pei Siyuan in a white robe. Both of them had smiles on their faces as they chatted happily. Leng Cangming was followed by a group of madams and a man in a purple brocade robe. The man's eyes were warm and the corners of his mouth were smiling. He looked a little similar to Leng Ruoli, her twin brother, Leng Ruofeng.
"Tonight, we will welcome General Pei. Everyone, just enjoy yourselves.”Leng Cangming waved his hand and sat down with Pei Siyuan.
"Yes." Everyone stood up and bowed before sitting down with a smile. However, this smile was still the signature smile, with a hint of caution.
The sound of a musical instrument rang out, and a group of dancers in light pink dresses filed in, creating a charming scene for the empty drill ground. Leng Suwan looked at those slim waists, her pale lips curled into a mocking smile.
"Tell me, why don't these women strip naked? Wouldn't that attract more men's attention?”She picked up the delicate and small cup and took a sip of the wine in it. The clear and light wine slid down her throat, bringing with it a very seductive stimulation. After the thin wine, there was a lingering mellow fragrance.
Meng Yu's handsome face turned red and he looked around nervously. Seeing that no one had heard Leng Su Wan's words, he let out a long sigh of relief and said with a slight reprimand,""Wanwan, you're a girl. Don't say such things in the future.”
Leng Suwan tilted her head and lowered her forehead with the green bamboo chopsticks. Her eyes carried a lazy smile and her fair face was flushed, making her cold and charming. She looked at him from the corner of her eyes and said indifferently,"Don't you dare say that the dancer in this scene is not thinking of turning into a phoenix?" This was the shallowest desire of a woman. They hid it too badly.”
Leng Suwan poured herself another glass of wine, her eyes slightly narrowed, like a noble Persian cat, she downed the glass of wine. She had thought that this kind of wine that had not been processed by modern industry would be very unpleasant to drink, so she had not tasted a drop of it for nearly ten years. Only today did he realize the deliciousness of this dish. It was extremely refreshing and seductive. It faintly affected the most primitive emotions in his body, causing him to be immersed in that blur.
Meng Yu's eyes were filled with infatuation as he looked at the woman who was drinking by herself. He sighed, picked up a cup of wine, and downed it in one gulp. Pei Siyuan, who was supporting his chin with one hand, raised his eyebrows and looked at Leng Su Wan, who was dressed in black and coarse cloth, with a faint smile on his face. When she touched the emotions in Meng Yu's eyes, she took a sip of wine with interest.
The music in the arena was suddenly mixed with fast and rapid drumbeats. Everyone looked at the center of the arena in confusion. The dancers in pink twisted their waists and spun, and their charming skirts bloomed like flowers before finally gathering together. A few strong men walked into the drill ground with strange and rough dance steps, carrying a huge drum. The women suddenly scattered and surrounded the huge drum. The burly man stretched out an empty hand, and the dancers stepped on his palm one after another. Their thick palms dragged their slender ankles, and the pink satin swayed in the wind. The air around them suddenly froze. Looking at this astonishing dance, they seemed to have a vague feeling that there must be something else. Six burly men carried drums, and six dancers in pink stood in their hands. The silk in their hands spread out and hit the drums, producing a deep drumbeat. The musicians from all directions started beating the drums and bamboo pith in a hurry.
Everyone held their breaths and looked at the center of the arena. Suddenly, a red figure entered his field of vision, stepping on the chaotic yet rhythmic drumbeats and floating on the silk that was entangled with the pink dancers. Her red clothes were like torches, and her black hair was like ink. She turned around and leaned on the drum with the enchantment of thousands of flowers blooming. The burly men withdrew their hands from the dancers and threw the huge drum up. The dancers floated to the ground one after another, and pink flowers bloomed on their bodies. The woman in red on the drum raised her head. Her thick and beautiful eyes carried a thick exotic charm. When the drum rose to a certain limit, it suddenly fell!
The red-robed woman stood up at this moment. Her fiery red body burned in the night sky like a phoenix! The red dress fluttered in the wind, and the enchanting dance captivated everyone's mind. The pink dancers below followed the music and spun under the drum. They reached out their hands to hold the falling drum and slowly spun around. The red-robed woman on the drum was completely unaffected as she continued to sway. She looked around with a bewitching charm. Her bare feet were faintly visible in her red dress, and the silver bells on her ankles were ringing with a crisp sound.
"Hua Yin?" Meng Yu's doubtful voice rang out. Leng Su Wan looked at the woman in red on the drum, her eyes indifferent and cold, as if she was not interested in this extravagant and seductive dance banquet. Her gaze passed through the woman in red and directly looked at the blushing Leng Feiyi. Leng Feiyi's mind was not in the middle of the drill ground at all. Her eyes were always locked on the man in white, unconsciously filled with admiration and love. That gaze was fiery and naked, just like how Su Lan looked at Liu Minglang... Leng Su Wan picked up her cup and downed it in one gulp, but her eyes were filled with sadness and bitterness. Why didn't she see it at first? Su Lan admired Liu Minglang so much, just like…she longed for freedom...
"Wanwan, don't drink anymore. You'll get drunk.”Meng Yu stopped her and took the white porcelain wine pot in front of Leng Su Wan. Leng Su Wan turned her head and looked at him quietly,""I'm not a cynical person. It's just that…sometimes, I really hate my fate.”Her words made Meng Yu stunned. He watched as she gently took the wine jug from his hand and poured herself a glass. He lowered his eyes and covered his fingertips with his scarlet sleeve…
