Lin Zhaoyan didn't know how to speak.

Lin Ruoyan took the lead and said, "Why, why is his sister good at doing such shameful things? How good can she do!"

"What shameful things?" Zhou Wanyu widened his eyes even more, "Sister Yuxue, what's wrong with Sister Yuxue?"

Except for the people of Qin Lin's family, Qin Yuxue has always been silent on the outside world. Therefore, in the eyes of outsiders, it is just a love story that Qin Yuxue is crazy about love and wants to be a second wife and marry a lover. But now this story has become sad and regretful because of Lin Jue's separation and Qin Yuxue's serious illness.

It is even more impossible for a lady from the boudoir who is deaf of her ears and deaf ears to the outside world to know about it.

Lin Ruoyan was about to say that Lin Zhaoyan stopped her in time, "Beware of the ears of the wall."

Then he said to Zhou Wanyu: "Why go to our place to chat?"

The pergola in Jian'an Hou Mansion is not only large, but also exquisitely arranged inside, with a compartment.

Xiao Qi has always been considerate.

Zhou Wanyu bit her lip and thought for a while, and finally nodded, "Okay!"

Her originally bright mood suddenly became lonely because of Lin Zhaoyan's words, so she kept lowering her head when she was walking on the road, obviously not in high spirits.

Lin Zhaoyan looked at her several times, and a feeling of powerlessness arose. She couldn't take care of herself now. She really didn't have the energy to bother others, but Zhou Wanyu... After all, she was not someone else.

She is her friend.

They arrived at the awning soon. Chu Wen was very happy to see her safe return and saluted her respectfully, but forgot to salute Lin Ruoyan and Zhou Wanyu.

Fortunately, neither of them was a person who cared about etiquette, but just curiously looked back and forth between Lin Zhaoyan and Chu Wen.

They also saw something was wrong.

Lin Zhaoyan coughed awkwardly, hurriedly took the matter away, and pulled them into the awning.

It was very strange that Lu and Liu saw that they were back so soon.

Lin Zhaoyan explained that it was too noisy outside that he decided to come back to talk.

Lu and Liu did not have any doubts. Lu said with a smile: "The little sisters always have their own personalities to say. Zhaoer has always liked Qingjing, so let them go to the inner room to reminisce about the past!"

Lin Zhaoyan was wondering when Lu became so understanding. Then he heard her say, "Take Sister Jin in with me. We adults must find it boring to talk to her, a child."

Lin Zhaoyan's gaze fell on Lin Jinming's expressionless face, and then he understood what Lu's meaning was.

Since Lin Jinming agreed to marry Prince Duan, he has become extremely quiet, and can even be said to be withdrawn, as if he wants to be isolated from the world.

Perhaps Lu was scared by her change, afraid that when will she do stupid things again, so she wanted her to try her to contact and talk more with people.

Lin Ruoyan couldn't help but mutter, "We don't welcome her!"

Lin Zhaoyan thought carefully and felt that the whole Marquis's mansion knew about Qin Yuxue, and it didn't matter even if Lin Jinming was present. She didn't want to offend Lu in public. So she smiled and nodded, "Even if the eldest aunt doesn't say it, we will call the third sister."

Lu immediately became happy and cheered up.

Lin Jinming also looked up at her. When she met her smiling eyes, she immediately lowered her head and returned to her expressionless look.

After entering the inner room, before Lin Zhaoyan could speak, Lin Jinming took the lead and said, "You talk about yours. You can pretend that I don't exist. I just don't want to hear their verbal confrontation outside, so I just hide in for peace. Don't worry, I won't eavesdrop on you."

After saying this, she ignored the reactions of the three of them, and walked straight to the soft couch on the corner of the house to sit down, picked up a book on the mahogany table beside her, and looked carefully.

There were also a few windows in the awning. She happened to be sitting by the window frame at this moment. The rippling sunshine was shining in. Accompanied by the cool breeze of early summer, Lin Jinming was wearing a Ruan Yanluo long dress with smoke and willow colors, as if she had suddenly lost her youthful youth, unruly and domineering, and grew into a gentle, humble, and well-educated and polite girl.

Lin Zhaoyan looked at her strangely. Lin Ruoyan couldn't react. In my impression, Lin Jinming had never been such a good person to talk to.

What changed her?

Lin Zhaoyan didn't think much about it, and soon pulled Zhou Wanyu to the table and chair beside him and started to get to the point.

"You know that Qin Yuxue married my elder brother to do the second wife, right?"

Zhou Wanyu nodded with a serious expression, "Sister Yuxue told me a long time ago that she has someone she loves very much, but she has many difficulties to be together. I once encouraged her, but I never knew that the person was your elder brother..."

"That person is not my elder brother." Lin Zhaoyan interrupted her.

Zhou Wanyu was stunned.

Lin Ruoyan couldn't wait to say: "She had a child in her belly before marrying my elder brother, and she was not my elder brother's at all!"

Zhou Wanyu widened his eyes exaggeratedly, and after a while, he found a trace of his thoughts, "What, how is it possible?"

How could a woman who is as knowledgeable and understanding as Sister Yuxue do such a thing?

"How is it impossible!" Lin Ruoyan snorted disdainfully, "If my sister-in-law hadn't smart designs to force her to tell the truth, my elder brother would have been harmed by her!"

Zhou Wanyu still couldn't believe it, "Then who would be the child in her belly?"

She stared at Lin Zhaoyan, hoping that she could give her an answer.

Lin Zhaoyan looked at her originally clear eyes, and now she was covered with a faint mist, just like a jade pendant that had been accumulated in a long time, becoming less transparent and shiny. She couldn't help but sigh softly, "Wan Yu, did you guess it?"

Zhou Wanyu's face turned pale in an instant.

What she guessed?

What did she guess?

Brother Qin Chang? No, no, it’s impossible!

She glared at Lin Zhaoyan, pulled the corners of her lips and smiled twice, "I don't know, I don't know anything."

"Wan Yu, stop lie in yourself anymore." Lin Zhaoyan closed his eyes, unable to bear to see the pain and despair in her eyes, "I have already reminded you of this matter. Now the fact that Qin Yuxue is pregnant is in front of you, and you cannot escape any more."

Zhou Wanyu stood up in a flash. "I don't believe it!"

Lin Zhaoyan raised his eyes and looked at her quietly, "Believe it or not, these are all facts. Wan Yu, don't be obsessed with it anymore."

Lin Ruoyan watched the two of them having a puzzle-like conversation, and was so anxious that she scratched her head, "What are you talking about, what do you believe it or not?"

However, no one paid attention to her.

Zhou Wanyu still stared at Lin Zhaoyan, with unwillingness, grievance and despair in his eyes.

Lin Zhaoyan also stood up and stepped forward to hold her hand, "Wan Yu. There are thousands of good men in this world. Why do you have to..."

"I'm about to get engaged to him." Zhou Wanyu said softly.

Lin Zhaoyan's hands trembled.

Zhou Wanyu had already cleaned up his emotions. A smile appeared on his lips, "Sister Zhaoyan, I know you are for my own good, but as I said before. The relationship is like a person who knows that you are not me, and you are not him, you will not understand."

"Wan Yu..." Lin Zhaoyan wanted to say something else.

Zhou Wanyu had already pulled out his hand, lowered his eyes and said quietly, "I want to ask him, I want to listen to him admit it in person." After that, regardless of Lin Zhaoyan's reaction, he turned around, raised his skirt, rushed out.

She disappeared into the house like a gust of wind. Lin Zhaoyan felt a chill all over her body and she was gone.

Lin Zhaoyan came to his senses and was about to chase him out.

"No need to chase after her, she is now in the horns. Nothing you said is useless." Lin Jinming's voice came from the corner.

Lin Zhaoyan's pace stopped.

Lin Jinming continued: "She is different from me. My cousin has never given me any hope, so it is easy for you to give up after a few words. But when I look at her situation, I am afraid that the man has given her a lot of sweet promises. You and I are both women. You should understand that most women who are immersed in love cannot extricate themselves, and how many people can look at the problem rationally?"

Lin Zhaoyan turned around and looked at her with complicated eyes.

Lin Jinming was still leaning against the soft couch of the red sandalwood reading, with a quiet and lazy expression. He probably noticed Lin Zhaoyan's gaze. She spread the book in her hand on her knees, raised her eyes and stared at her quietly for a while, and suddenly, she smiled.

"I just saw through it. I was young and loved, so I clearly distinguished from love and hate, and I was willful and impulsive. I always thought that no matter what, my mother would help me, my father would help me, and the Jian'an Marquis Mansion would be my safest support. Who would have thought that I was defeated by my proud nature in the end? Who would have thought that I thought the safest support would have pushed me out and asked me to face the bitter wind and rain alone. You are not me, you will never know how I came through that time. I really thought about dying, not intimidation or threat, but really wanting to die."

Lin Zhaoyan's heart seemed to be tightly held by an invisible palm, which made her breathless.

What she should have known long ago was that Lin Jinming's arrogant and unrestrained personality, even if Prince Duan was a best destination, she would not be willing to ask for this framed marriage.

"I'm sorry..." Thousands of words could only be transformed into these three words. Apart from being sorry, she didn't know what else she could say.

Lin Jinming smiled, his smile was very sincere, not sarcasm or sarcasm, "You don't have to be sorry, I have to thank you. If it weren't for you, how could I recognize the sinister world and how could I understand so many things?"

Lin Zhaoyan couldn't speak.

Lin Jinming continued: "Actually, I understand in my heart that you are for my own good. You have been a soft-hearted since childhood. You would rather suffer losses than harm others in everything. Although I don't know why you became like this now, I know that if Prince Duan was a cruel person or a cold-blooded and ruthless person, you would never have designed me to marry."

"Yes." Lin Zhaoyan nodded.

Lin Jinming smiled, but then he changed his mind and became sharp, "But understand it is one thing, but accepting it is another! At first, I couldn't forgive you for deceiving and hurting me. Even if you successfully persuaded me to hang myself, I still couldn't forgive you! I hated me in my heart, the more I thought about it, the more I hated me. I even swear that I will never let you go when I am prosperous in the future. I must make you look good and let you taste the pain of life being worse than death!"

Lin Zhaoyan looked at her gritting teeth and couldn't help but shivered from the bottom of her heart.

She believed what Lin Jinming said, and she was so angry that she wanted to cut her into pieces.

"But later I changed this idea!" Lin Jinming smiled brightly again, his eyes like glazed red tiles washed by summer rain, becoming crystal clear, "Because someone told me that all kinds of things in this world are just flowers and moons in the mirror. People who live outside the truth think everything is good and life goes smoothly, while people who live inside the truth are destined to seek but not get it, and suffer for a lifetime. In fact, why bother? Beyond the truth is just your own choice, and happiness and pain are often separated by a thought. Sometimes the truth is often a deep bone in the abyss, why bother to find out? I can still think that my grandmother loves me and my parents love me. And Prince Duan is the queen mother who gave me a marriage to praise me. Simple happiness is actually very easy."

Lin Zhaoyan's heart trembled heavily.

Live outside the truth?

Simple happiness?

So is she so unhappy because she pursues the truth too much?

"What's the use of hypocritical happiness coming!" Lin Ruoyan listened and sneered disdainfully.
