Chapter 417 The Road to Immorality
Chapter 417 The Road to Immorality
Under the wall of the side gate of Juyuan, Lei Xing was trembling as he held the ladder despite the strong moral condemnation. He finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Shen Guiling turn over.
"Master, you finally came down. I just saw Gao Zhi heading towards the main gate of Ju Garden. Did he notice you?"
Hearing this, Shen Guiling glanced towards the Orchid Garden and said, "Let's go back."
"Yes." Lei Xing rubbed his hands awkwardly.
When they arrived at the Bamboo Garden, Shen Guiling turned around and went straight back to the master bedroom, leaving Lei Xing suffering in dire straits.
Did he finally understand what was going on?
Could it be that the gentle and considerate Master A Ling has fallen in love with the arrogant, rude and unreasonable Miss Jiang?
This is how to do?
If the old man finds out about this, Master Aling will be caught and thrown into a pig cage!
Lei Xing was so anxious that he was running around in the yard. Finally, he knocked on Shen Guiling's door with the determination to fight to the death.
Climbing roses have many thorns. Although Shen Guiling was very careful, he still got a lot of thorns stuck in his arm. He was on the sofa treating the wound when he heard a knock on the door. His eyes darkened, "Come in."
Lei Xing pushed the door open and walked in. "Master, the clothes are done."
Shen Guiling nodded, and Lei Xing walked into the cloakroom to sort out his clothes. After hesitating for a long time, he moved to Shen Guiling reluctantly.
"Master A Ling, you're going to see Miss Jiang so late at night. Isn't it inconvenient to meet her during the day?"
Shen Guiling raised her eyes and looked at him calmly.
"..." Lei Xing realized that he had asked a stupid question and smiled awkwardly, "I...I didn't mean that. What I meant was, is there something that can't be done during the day? Why must it be done at night?"
Shen Guiling put down his arms, leaned against the sofa and said nothing.
Lei Xingtou slapped himself in the face and said, "Master, what I mean is, do you have that intention towards Miss Jiang?"
Shen Guiling, "Which one?"
Lei Xing looked embarrassed and stretched out his hands, rubbing his fingers together.
"..." Shen Guiling raised the corner of his eyes. He didn't dare to say it but he dared to do it.
"No." He said indifferently.
Lei Xing was overjoyed and covered his chest. The young master would not lie. It turned out that he was just overthinking.
Shen Guiling added, "I just simply like her and haven't planned to do anything yet."
Lei Xing's heart, which had just healed, broke on the spot, and he looked at Shen Guiling in disbelief.
like her?
"Young... Young Master, you... you are so confused! So many people like you, why do you just like Miss Jiang? It's impossible for you and Miss Jiang to be together!"
Shen Guiling looked calm, "So? What are you going to do? Help me? Or report to the old man?"
He was not interested in discussing with Lei Xing whether there was any possibility between him and Jiang Huashan. The reason why he confessed to Lei Xing was that he took into account that Lei Xing had slowly infiltrated his life. If he wanted to win Jiang Huashan's heart, Lei Xing would definitely not be able to hide it. Instead of being on guard against Lei Xing in the future, it would be better to be frank now. It would also be a good opportunity to test Lei Xing's loyalty to him.
Lei Xing's face changed slightly. He certainly would not tell the old man about this. The young master finally had a chance to make a name for himself. If the old man knew about this, he would definitely think that it was the young master who seduced Miss Jiang, and then the young master would be the only one to be punished.
But...if he doesn't stop him, won't the young master be on the road of immorality and there is no turning back?
Seeing that he was in a dilemma, Shen Guiling pinched her brows and said, "Don't rush to answer. It's not too late to decide after you think it through."
"Yes." Lei Xing looked guilty and walked out of the room dejectedly.

On the other side, Gao Zhi delivered the letter and turned back to the Orchid Garden.
Shen Lanxi was sitting on a chaise longue beside the lotus pond feeding the pigs. When she heard the noise, she looked up at Gao Zhi, but seeing that he had empty hands, she immediately looked away and continued feeding him.
Gao Zhi stepped closer and said, "Master, the letter has been sent."
"Yeah." Shen Lanxi had no expression on her face.
Gao Zhi rolled his eyes in his heart and coughed lightly, "Well, Miss Jiang has something for me to tell the young master."
Shen Lanxi's eyes moved, "What did she...say?"
Gao Zhi said, "Miss Jiang said that she received the young master's kindness and the gift, and she has forgiven you."
Shen Lanxi was stunned. "Did she really say that?"
Of course it wasn't true. Gao Zhi didn't even see Jiang Huashan when he went to Juyuan to deliver the letter. But if he replied truthfully, the rookie young master would probably not be able to accept the blow, and he would be the one who suffered.
Gao Zhi put himself in Jiang Huashan's shoes, and the more he lied, the more fluent he became. "It's absolutely true. Miss Jiang also said that she wasn't angry with you, Young Master. She was angry with Young Master Qingyu and Young Master A Ling. She knew that Young Master had his own difficulties, so she didn't blame him."
Now everything will be coaxed, right?
"She's not angry with me?" Shen Lanxi thought carefully for a while, and her mood inexplicably turned cold again. "Why is she only angry at Shen Guiling and Shen Qingyu? She is indifferent to me?"
Gao Zhi, “…”
Shen Lanxi lowered her eyes, waved her hand and scattered all the fish food in her palm.
Are you angry?
Gao Zhi clenched his fists and quickly tried to make amends, "Well...it's not that I'm not angry at all. I only stopped being angry after reading your letter, young master. I was still very angry before. Miss Jiang said that you were the one she hated the most before."
Hearing this, Shen Lanxi's expression eased a little and she looked up at the bright moon in the night sky.
Gao Zhi was afraid that the noob would start trouble again, so he quickly changed the subject, "Master, Grey Eagle has arrived at Whale Harbor."
Shen Lanxi's eyes were slightly startled, and her distant gaze became sharper. "Tell him to keep an eye on Shen Che."
Gao Zhi let out a long breath, "Weren't there two groups of people that night? Why are you only staring at Mr. Shen Si?"
Shen Lanxi, "The other group was arranged by Shen Yuan. Why do you think Shen Qingyu got shot? He's not really stupid. If Shen Yuan hadn't done anything out of the ordinary, why would he have made such a big fuss?"
Gao Zhi pondered for a moment, "What about Mr. Shen?"
Shen Lanxi tapped the windowsill lightly with her fingertips. "He's even less of a concern. I'm worried about someone else."
Gao Zhi suddenly had an idea. "Are you worried about Master A Ling?"
Shen Lanxi raised her eyes and couldn't help but look at Gao Zhi deeply, "You noticed it too?"
Being able to sit in the position of chairman of the parliament, Shen Qian is no mediocre person. Shen Guiling's knife is about to reach Shen Qian's neck, but Shen Qian is still kept in the dark. The fact that he can play with his uncle in the blink of an eye shows how deep Shen Guiling's mind is.
For some reason, he always felt that Shen Guiling was different from other people in Shen Garden, and he had no sense of belonging to Shen Garden.
This look of recognition made Gao Zhi very happy, and he raised his neck with a proud look on his face.
Isn't that a worry? Master A Ling is obviously very good at romance, and the rookie is obviously worried that he won't win.
