The Famous Detective of the Red Mansion

Chapter 187: Reluctant to Part, Full of Affection

Half an hour ago, on the slope.

"From a distance, I thought there was a wildfire, but it was you who were enjoying here!" Li Wan said. Looking at the curtain that was being torn down, she doubtfully said, "Why? Now that I'm here, you're leaving?"

Since she had just appeared at the foot of the mountain, a group of women and servant girls began to nervously dismantle the curtain that had been temporarily put up to block the wind. That's why Li Wan asked.

"I was going back."

Seeing Wang Xifeng holding the golden hairpin on her head, she complained bitterly, "My Second Master has been feeling dizzy for the past two days, and I'm going crazy because I'm so bored. So I came to this clean place to be free for a while. Unexpectedly, my head ached again after being blown by the mountain wind."

This was not a bad thing to say to others. In front of Li Wan, it showed a little flaunting and demonstration.

However, a few days ago, the disruption brought on by Baoyu's audit altered a lot of things in Rongguo Mansion, and one of them was the relationship between Li Wan and Wang Xifeng!

Because when Wang Xifeng fell out of power, Li Wan was very active and hoped to take the place of Wang Xifeng and become in charge of the family.

Because Sun Shaozong intervened, the desire to seize class and power was completely defeated. On the contrary, Wang Xifeng became wary, and her relationship with Li Wan was not as close as ever.

At this time, she realized that Wang Xifeng's words had the vague intention of showing off her power and her man to Li Wan. She could not help feeling annoyed, so the two sisters-in-law stopped talking.

After the tent was demolished, the maids and nannies put away the incense, the heater, and other things together, and they ran to the foot of the mountain separately.

"Huh?"

Not far away, Li Wan stopped, looked back suspiciously at the slope, and murmured, "There are many secluded and beautiful places in the garden. Why did she choose this place?"

People who have secrets in their hearts always felt that others were unclean.

In particular, Wang Xifeng had insinuated her mind. When Li Wan thought about this, she was worried and hoped to catch Wang Xifeng's shortcomings to check and balance each other.

So when she felt something was wrong, she immediately took Suyun back with her.

It was probably out of a woman's intuition that Li Wan happened to follow the winding mountain path to this lonely courtyard, blocking Sun Shaozong!

"It’s you?!"

Seeing the great figure that she had been yearning for all the time, Li Wan first let out a cry of surprise, then quickly covered her mouth and said in a charming voice, "How can Erlang be here?"

"Well..."

Sun Shaozong was blocked in the yard by the Master and Servant. He was a little stunned, but he immediately saluted as if nothing had happened. "I was tired from wandering around because I was greedy for the scenery in the garden, so I came in to have a rest, but I didn't know I would meet you here."

Tired?

How many steps are needed to get tired of this steel body?

Li Wan didn't believe it a hundred times. When she linked Wang Xifeng's strange behavior, she could not help but speculate bitterly. She could not help but sneer, "Is it really just a rest? It shouldn’t be that I ruined your plans?"

Ruined my plans?!

Is it possible that this woman has seen something wrong?

It shouldn't be!

Even Wang Xifeng thought that Ping’er was discussing business with her. What weaknesses could Li Wan, a widow living in seclusion, find out?

Sun Shaozong made a nervous analysis and finally decided to leave here first. He then bowed and said, "What good can I do? However, it's remote here. If a man of good deeds sees me talking with you here, it's not right."

The meaning of his words was, of course, to let the Master and Servant leave as soon as possible, or to make way for him.

Unexpectedly, Suyun, the eldest servant girl, had seen Sun Shaozong before, and she was a little distracted.

Hearing this, she didn't know which tendon was wrong, so she hurriedly closed the door and then dropped the latch!

Sun Shaozong immediately became dumbfounded.

Li Wan was even more flushed. She shouted in shame, "Why are you plugging in the door?"

Suyun, who was reprimanded as a result, realized what she had done was absurd and quickly put on a submissive and cute appearance. With her peach blossom eyes, she couldn't help but glance at Sun Shaozong.

When Li Wan saw that she had no intention of reopening the door, she had to go forward and do it herself.

It’s just that…

Two white hands, like rain, grabbed the latch, but she suddenly felt reluctant.

It has been almost a year since they first met, and she secretly fell in love with Sun Shaozong. Although she met him in a dream all day and played the role play, it was the first time she had ever been alone with a lone man like today!

If she missed the chance today and wanted to talk to him later, she was afraid she didn’t know when that would be.

Thinking like this, Li Wan held the latch in her hand, but she didn't make a move for a long time. Finally, she forced herself to say, "Xiangling... Is Xiangling doing well recently?"

Xiangling had a meeting with her a few days ago, and it was clear to her that she had a good life.

She was obviously finding a topic.

Sun Shaozong was speechless, but he had to answer seriously, "Xiangling's mother is in my house now. The mother and daughter have a reunion with each other after many years, so naturally, they are very happy."

Then, he couldn't help beating around the bush and said, "By the way, Lan’er is doing well today. He is more persistent than his uncle, Jia Huan."

In fact, it was a roundabout reminder to Li Wan that she had already had a son.

"Really?!"

But Li Wan, hearing this, unexpectedly released the latch, turned back, and said, "This is all about Erlang's good teaching. Actually, I often do aerobics too, and I feel much healthier recently."

Looking at the exaggerated gourd figure in the cloak, this was really a picture!

He even pictured Li Wan being completely naked…

Cough!

It was the picture of doing all kinds of postures meticulously. The fire he managed to get rid of has a trend toward resurgence.

No!

He must get away quickly!

With this in mind, Sun Shaozong said with a straight face, "Sister-in-law, Brother Lan is waiting for me in the Martial Arts Practice Hall. Do you think..."

Even if Li Wan was no longer sensitive, she recognized that he wanted to leave as soon as possible, so she had to look at Sun Shaozong with a grudge and reluctantly turned to open the courtyard door.
