Chapter 37: The Poisonous Tongue Childhood General 5
Jiang Zhijin felt that he was not enough.
Qi Yu came from the left and Murong Ci came from the right. Both of them were not good people. They just wanted to get close to Jiang Wan, and he couldn't stop them by himself.
Murong Ci didn't know that his mask had fallen off and his true colors were exposed by Jiang Wan. Now he was obviously a handsome young man, so when he saw the hostility in Jiang Zhijin's eyes, he was full of confusion.
"Did Ci do something to offend Master Jiang before? Master Jiang looks like he hates me?" Murong Ci's tone was hurt.
If he didn't know his true face, Jiang Zhijin might have tried to appease him with a few polite words. But knowing that Murong Ci liked men, he dared not be gentle, for fear that he would fall in love with him, so he could only stiffen his voice and said dryly: "Fourth Prince, you don't know, my little sister is at the right age to marry, and the men who want to marry her can line up from the east to the west of the city. My parents are afraid that she will be disturbed by outsiders, so they specifically told me to be careful..."
As he spoke, he glanced at Qi Yu.
"I see. We should be more careful to prevent outsiders from tarnishing Miss Jiang's reputation."
Being with these two men with bad intentions, Jiang Zhijin had to be on high alert, so after finishing his polite greetings, he hurriedly pulled Jiang Wan away.
Looking at Jiang Wan's departing back, Murong Ci seemed to be thinking about something.
When he looked up again, he met Qi Yu's eyes, "Master Qi also likes Miss Jiang?"
Qi Yu shook his head, "I just went to the Jiang Mansion to study and met Miss Jiang a few times."
Murong Ci's smile deepened, and when Qi Yu left, Song Jie, who was hiding in the dark, walked out directly.
"Tsuneki, do you think all women are frivolous and fickle?"
Turpentine did not answer.
"You clearly liked me before, but it hasn't been long and you've already fallen in love with someone else!"
"Jiang Wan is like this, my mother is like this too, I'm afraid all women in this world are of this lowly nature..."
As he spoke, Murong Ci didn't care about the occasion and directly held Song Jie's hand, "But fortunately, you are always by my side..."
Song Jie looked around in horror, then immediately shook off his hand, "Fourth Prince, are you drunk from overeating?"
Murong Ci curled his lips, but his smile was extremely bitter, "Yes, I am drunk. I was kind-hearted and wanted to give her a chance to marry me decently, but she didn't cherish it. In this case, don't blame me for being cruel..."
......
Jiang Wan was completely unaware of what was happening. In the following period, the Jiang family was afraid that she would be sad because of thinking about Qi Yu again, so they took her to various poetry gatherings and banquets to meet all kinds of young talents.
Qi Yu did not appear in front of her, but the content on the screen could not be false. When Jiang Wan attended various banquets, he always peeked at her in the empty corners.
On this day, Jiang Wan met several young talents again. When he inadvertently heard the name of one of them, Jiang Wan suddenly raised his head.
If she remembered correctly, according to the original plot, this passerby Xie Changshu had poor personal morals. After getting married, it was revealed that he had a mistress outside and even had two children.
Thinking of this, Jiang Wan paid more attention to him and pretended to have a good impression of him.
......
Although he was prepared to never see Jiang Wan again, Qi Yu couldn't help but stop whenever she appeared or heard news about her.
Seeing Jiang Wan smiling at another man, Qi Yu felt as if a knife was cutting his heart...
But before he could get over the suffocating feeling in his heart, he discovered something was wrong.
That man, he remembered.
Xie Changshu pretended to be a decent person, but he clearly saw him hugging a beautiful woman into the house. Now that he thought about it carefully, it must be his mistress outside.
No, he is not a good man at all. Jiang Wan can't be fooled by him!
Qi Yu wanted to rush over and tell Jiang Wan the truth, but after calming down, he hesitated again.
What did he do in the past? What was his identity? What qualifications did he have?
If he went there now, he would only annoy Jiang Wan for no reason.
After much thought, Qi Yu decided to back off. He couldn't bear to see Jiang Wan being deceived, but he was too embarrassed to see her, so he could only find a way to tell Jiang Zhijin the news.
He wrote the letter solemnly and wanted to ask the servant in the Grand Tutor's Mansion to deliver it to him, but unfortunately, Jiang Zhijin hated him so much that he didn't want to read it at all and just sent the letter out intact.
Qi Yu had no choice but to stop Jiang Zhijin when he was leaving the house and tell him in person that Xie Changshu was not a good person.
But what about Jiang Zhijin?
He just snorted coldly and looked at him with contempt, "I can't believe you are such a person, Qi Yu! You have clearly drawn a line between you and Wan Wan, but now you come to interfere and even slander the person she likes... Qi Yu, do you think that others don't deserve what you can't get?
You now only make me feel disgusted."
After hearing Jiang Zhijin's words, Qi Yu's face turned pale.
How could he not know that he had overstepped his bounds? But he still could not control his heart.
He wanted to be with Jiang Wan, but he wanted Jiang Wan to be alive even more. His world was too dangerous...
Qi Yu had never hated his cowardice and incompetence as much as he did now. He also wanted to fight for himself, but when he thought of the bloody storm hidden behind the calm, he retreated shamefully.
Even though he knew that there was no possibility for him and Jiang Wan anymore, he couldn't bear to see Jiang Wan being deceived by others, so he revealed Xie Changshu's true face to her as the last thing he did for her.
Qi Yu asked the servant to inform Jiang Wan that he wanted to see her, but as expected, he was rejected.
These days, he had been waiting at the gate of the Grand Tutor's Mansion, thinking that he would wait for Jiang Wan to go out and then directly give her the letter he had written.
But unfortunately, Jiang Wan has been staying indoors all the time, so it is extremely difficult for Qi Yu to see her.
But who would have thought that at this moment, he met Xie Changshu who came to visit the Grand Tutor's Mansion.
What was he doing here? Jiang Wan had met so many young talents before, but why was Xie Changshu the only one who came this time?
There is no connection between Xie Changshu and the Grand Tutor's Mansion. Xie Changshu would not come to visit for no reason. There is only one possibility... The Jiang family thinks highly of him and invites him to come and assess his character.
Thinking that Jiang Wan might really like Xie Changshu, Qi Yu felt as if his heart was being cut by a knife for a moment.
However, what worried him even more was that Jiang Wanhui was completely deceived by Xie Changshu. Thinking of the always proud little girl living such a miserable life, Qi Yu felt it was difficult to even breathe.
So, he made a difficult decision.
That night, a dark shadow flashed past the wall of the Grand Tutor's Mansion.
At the same time, Jiang Wan blew out the candle, adjusted his posture and lay down on the bed.
The door was gently pushed open and Qi Yu walked in quietly.
He had never had the chance to meet Jiang Wan, and this time he took the risk to come here because he was afraid that she would be deceived.
Qi Yu took out the written letter hidden in his arms and gently placed it beside Jiang Wan's bed, making sure that she could see it directly when she woke up.
If it was placed far away, the maid might see the contents of the letter first, and if it was accidentally spread out, it would tarnish her reputation.
Put it next to the bed, Jiang Wan will definitely destroy it in time after reading it.
The room was dark, and Qi Yu could only vaguely trace Jiang Wan's eyebrows and eyes in the moonlight.
He wanted to turn around and leave, but his feet seemed to have taken root and he could not take a single step.
Just watch for a while, let him watch for a while longer...
He knew that after this separation, he might never see Jiang Wan again in this life.
This was the girl he had been thinking about day and night and loved to the core of his heart. God knows how upset he felt when he broke off the engagement with Jiang Wan. Every time he said something against his will, his heart was bleeding...
He promised that he would be greedy just this once, and he would watch it a little longer...
Although Jiang Wan closed her eyes, she could still see the light screen at all times. Qi Yu just stood there stupidly, not moving, and she became anxious.
So, under Qi Yu's gaze, the shadow on the bed sat up suddenly, grabbed his sleeve and asked, "Have you seen enough?"
Qi Yu was still immersed in his own world. This sudden change scared him so much that he subconsciously wanted to fly away, but Jiang Wan was still pulling his sleeve. As soon as he moved, Jiang Wan was dragged to the ground.
Jiang Wan gasped in pain and couldn't help but cry out in pain.
Qi Yu didn't even bother to run and immediately turned back to check her injuries, but this hesitation made him lose the best opportunity to leave.
The maids outside the house heard the noise and lit up lanterns, and the outside of the house suddenly became as bright as day.
"Miss, what's wrong with you?" The maid was about to push the door open. Qi Yu became anxious and looked around the house for a place to hide.
If a strange man was really found in Jiang Wan's room, would she still want to maintain her reputation?
