Li Xue Hall

"Min De's handwriting has surpassed mine." Li Weiyang said, her lips quirking up at the corners slightly; a smile like spring's breeze.

Li Min De did not take her comment to heart: "Sanjie likes calligraphy? If you like it, I can always invite Laoshi—"

There were increasingly more people at Li Min De's side now; without even asking, Li Weiyang naturally knew that his status was extremely special, to have attracted individuals who shouldn't have reason to appear in Da Li. He never spoke about it, and she did not pry. However, there was indeed something that she had been very curious about. She set down the Xuan calligraphy paper in her hands, and softly uttered: "Da Furen's courtyard.."

Li Min De paused slightly. He replied casually: "Oh, Sanjie is referring to the news about Aunt's serious illness."

Li Weiyang glanced at him. She had no idea when it began; when Weiyang was not looking, Li Min De's eyes changed. It held a glint of frost, his cold gaze resembling ice frozen for eternity, the corners of his gently curving eyes carrying a horrible loneliness. The androgynous beauty of his childhood years was long gone, leaving him with icy attractiveness.

The sun was shining directly at him, so he had to narrow his eyes and peer at her under his lashes; this angle was extremely flattering with his features. People glancing at him from nearby could not help but feel their hearts beat faster.

"Sanjie, why are you looking at me like this?"

"I just have a feeling that this matter is linked to you." Li Weiyang replied smilingly.

A flash of hostility appeared in Li Min De's eyes, which quickly transformed into an innocent expression: "Sanjie, I am but a person without any support, how can I have such power to disturb Da Furen?"

"Don't pretend anymore, I can guess." Li Weiyang smiled and replied softly.

Li Min De returned the smile, but did not say a word.

Li Weiyang knew that he was unwilling to give any details but did not try to force him; she already has the answer that she had hoped for. She smiled and walked out.

The moment Li Weiyang was gone, Li Min De immediately questioned a man behind him: "How did she discover it, what have you done?"

That person knelt down fearfully: "Young Master, this matter was extremely discreet, Xianzhu will not be able to find out anything."

"Sanjie is a smart person." Li Min De's expression was gentle and focused when describing Li Weiyang, but as he suddenly twisted around, his words were filled with an intent to kill: "Make my orders known; make a temporary stop to it."

"But.."

Li Min De tilted his head and stared at him with a frosty expression. "Is there a problem?" He softly demanded.

Under the scrutiny of that pair of hostile eyes, that person fearfully lowered his head.

Ever since San Furen had passed away, Li Min De had utterly changed. Other than Li Weiyang, there was almost nothing that he cared about. The mysterious person sighed inwardly; he knew that he could not convince Li Min De, but after much hesitation he still decided to try: "Actually, Young Master does not need to make the problem so complicated, we could just kill her off.."

Li Min De's face did not show any change: "Kill her? Then it would be easy to discover my truth identity. Morever, she does not deserve a quick and merciful death."
