Chapter 23: Give in

 

  ~◎

  Lin Luan was placed in a house to the east of the imperial city.

  Although the house is not far from the palace, it is not a noisy place, and there are neighbors on both sides, so it does not seem remote and cold. According to Dongqin, this house must have been carefully examined by the Holy One for a long time before serving him. It was a pity that this little lady had prepared it...

  She took a peek at the little lady who was sitting on the soft couch by the window, lightly illuminated by the soft light of the lamp, with a beautiful face but an expression as indifferent as frost and snow, Dong Qin felt in her heart He couldn't help but sigh softly, and continued the talent's thoughts - unfortunately, this young lady treated all of this with a cold indifference, and it was obvious that she didn't appreciate it.

  Suppressing what she was thinking, Dong Qin glanced at the scroll in Lin Luan's hand imperceptibly.

  Thinking that this young lady had been reading on this soft couch all afternoon, she suddenly smiled and spoke, hoping that her topic could teach Lin Luan to rest her eyes.

  Dong Qin laughed and said, "Tomorrow is the Lantern Festival. Madam, do you want to go out with your Majesty to enjoy the lanterns? Staying at home all the time is always boring." When

  Lin Luan heard the words, he was just silent as expected, as if he hadn't heard anything. appearance.

  "..."

  Lin Luan struggled twice, but in vain. She tilted her head and let Xiao Ning hold her on her lap, but her eyebrows were lowered and she remained silent, like a half-withered flower that looked lifeless.

  The joy in her heart faded a bit, and Lin Luan glanced sideways, looking at Xiao Ning in front of her with some surprise and confusion.

  Xiao Ning smiled slightly and nodded, saying nothing to Lin Luan's happy reaction, looking completely at ease.

  Lin Luan's fingers suddenly clenched slightly when he heard the sound of the door being opened, and his whole body became a little stiff.

  Dongqin was already used to Lin Luan's reticence. She thought that her words of persuasion would just fall on deaf ears like before, but unexpectedly, after Lin Luan was silent for a moment, she suddenly said coldly: "Just step back, I will I want to stay by myself for a while."

  Staring at her depressed look, Xiao Ning continued to ask: "What are you unhappy about? Tell me, I will help Aluan come up with ideas."

  She stretched out her hand, her slender fingers as white as green onions Holding the silk fabric of Xiao Ning's clothes, he asked as if he wanted to confirm again: "Is this true?"

  Xiao Ning's eyes were slightly curved and he smiled: "Of course you can."

  Lin Luan looked at it steadily. Looking at Xiao Ning who was so close in front of her, she was waiting for his answer with some anxiety.

  Hearing Xiao Ning's words, Lin Luan paused, then raised his eyes, his eyes were slightly bright, and he asked with a hint of hope and expectation: "I want to go home, can the Holy One allow me to go back?" Unexpectedly,

  Xiao Ning was so easy to talk to. Lin Luan was thinking about returning to Boning Hou Mansion, and wanted to leave Xiao Ning's lap. He broke away and said, "Then I'll pack my things now." After saying that,

  Xiao Ning pointed. The well-defined palm passed over Lin Luan's frowned eyebrows, as if he wanted to soothe the sadness between her eyebrows.

  Xiao Ning stretched out her hand and picked Lin Luan's chin, causing her face to turn back with a slight resistance.
