It was a great pain for a man to hold a naked beauty in his arms, but he could only look at her and not touch her.
Hugging Qin Xian 'er's soft and tender body, Lin Wanrong felt helpless. Thinking of the Love Curse in her body, he could only settle down and be an honest man, except for taking advantage of her.
For the sake of happiness in the future, I'll accept it. Lin Wanrong thought indignantly. He pinched Xian 'er's breasts, and Qin Xian' er moaned in her sleep, which was extremely seductive.
When he woke up, it was drizzling outside the window, and it was more beautiful than yesterday. However, Qin Xian 'er was not beside him. There was still a lingering fragrance in the room, and a note was gently pressed on the bedside. The ink was not dry, and there were a few lines of beautiful words written on it: "The sect urgently summons me. This house belongs to you, and it is also my home. I think of you day and night, and your heart is my heart. "
Lin Wanrong sighed. Qing Xuan had left, and so had Xian 'er. They were both in a hurry, and both left without a trace. He stood in the pavilion in the courtyard, looking at the note and sighing silently. On the simple and elegant paper, there were a few drops of freshly dried tears. Thinking of Xian 'er's beautiful face, her tearful appearance, and the soft whispers by his pillow yesterday, it was like this misty rain, like a dream, like an illusion, like a dream.
Gone, gone, all gone. No matter how cheerful Lin Wanrong was, he could only smile bitterly in the face of such a scene. Fortunately, he had Qiaoqiao and Yushuang by his side, so he had a little comfort.
It would be New Year's in a month. After the New Year, he would go north. He must find Qing Xuan, and then find a way to remove the Love Curse in Xian 'er's body. He would marry four maidservants, build a house by the West Lake, and enjoy his old age. This was his life goal.
Although his experience was unique, he had never thought of saving the country and its people. I'm just a commoner. Those intangible things have nothing to do with me. Ideals? Ideals were f * cking worthless. You should be thanking the gods if you can live a peaceful life.
After leaving Longhong Village, he was still not in high spirits. He returned to the lakeside of West Lake by following the path he had taken yesterday. Although it was drizzling, there were still boats coming and going on the lake. Most of them were official boats. From time to time, people would dive into the water, as if they were looking for something.
These people should have been sent by Xu Wei. It had been a day and a night, but they hadn't stopped searching. Lin Wanrong smiled in his heart. This Old Xu treated me quite well. I was a little touched.
"Is that Young Master Lin?" A voice was heard. A group of officers and soldiers who were searching by the lake saw him. The person in the lead was the imperial guard who had helped Xu Wei find a boat the day before. Although Lin Wanrong had changed his clothes, he was still recognized at a glance.
"It is Lin San." Lin Wanrong cupped his fists and said, "Are you looking for me, Big Brother? You've worked hard, Big Brother. I'm really sorry. "
"Is it really Young Master Lin?" The imperial guard said happily, "Men, quickly report to Lord that we've found Young Master Lin."
The man walked up and said happily, "Young Master Lin, you've finally returned. Our thousands of brothers have almost turned this West Lake upside down. We thought you … "
Lin Wanrong nodded slightly and said, "You've worked hard, Big Brother. May I know this Big Brother's name?"
The imperial guard smiled and said, "Young Master is too polite. I'm a boorish man. My surname is Gao and my name is Qiu. "
Gao Qiu? Lin Wanrong was startled. He said, "Our Jiangsu Governor-General Lord Luo has a big brother called Gao Shou. Your names are very similar. I wonder if you're related to Big Brother?"
Gao Qiu smiled and said, "That's my brother." Gao Shou, Gao Shou. My god, these two people's fathers are too talented. They've taken advantage of everyone in the world.
"Then, Big Brother, have you also served in the palace?" Lin Wanrong asked.
Gao Shou nodded and said, "I've served in the palace. Later on, I received orders from the Emperor to protect Lord Xu. It's been a few years. " It seemed that this Xu Wei was the same as Lomin, both of them were capable generals of the current Emperor. Otherwise, the Emperor wouldn't have sent so many palace guards to accompany him.
Seeing so many people looking for him, Lin Wanrong sighed and said, "Because of my matter, I've troubled so many Big Brothers. I'm really sorry."
"Young Master, please don't say such things." Gao Shou said, "Young Master knows that your strength isn't enough, but you still bravely fought the White Lotus bandits. Us brothers really admire you."
Lin Wanrong chuckled. "F * ck me, you're slapping me in the face.
On the other side, a group of people hurried over. The one in the lead was Xu Wei. From a distance, Lin Wanrong cupped his fists and said, "Mister Xu, did you sleep well last night?"
Xu Wei walked to his side. Seeing that he was safe and sound, he let out a long sigh of relief and said, "Little Brother Lin, how could I sleep well? You've worried us to death."
Lin Wanrong smiled and said, "That can't be. You and Miss Su have reunited after a long time. Last night should have been the perfect time to warm up and bathe in red. How could you have insomnia?"
Xu Wei was already in his fifties or sixties. Being teased by this young man in his twenties, he couldn't help but blush. But he was also not an ordinary person. Although he had only met this Lin San a few times, they hit it off very well. At once, he bowed deeply to Lin Wanrong and said, "Xu Wei thanks little Brother Lin for your help."
"How did I help?" Lin Wanrong asked curiously.
"You helped me two times. Publicly, you helped me capture the White Lotus and bravely fought the bandits. You are truly a model of bravery. Privately, you helped this old man fulfill his wish of many years. Qing Lian and I were able to reunite because of little Brother Lin's efforts. Publicly or privately, little Brother Lin deserves this bow from Xu Wei. "Xu Wei said with a serious expression.
"Haha, no need, no need. I also couldn't stand the arrogance and despotism of the White Lotus Sect. That's why I wanted to help. Who would have thought that the bandits couldn't take a beating and fell into the water. What's even more hateful was that when I wasn't paying attention, they actually pulled me down with them. "Lin Wanrong boasted shamelessly.
"Yes, that's exactly what happened." Xu Wei said with a light smile while stroking his beard. This little Brother Lin's knowledge was far greater than mine. His thick skin was even more rare in the world. "But how did little Brother escape?"
Lin Wanrong nodded. "Daren may not know, but I have a nickname called the Big Tiger of the Land, the Little White Dragon of the River. That last bandit's underwater skills weren't good, but he tightly entangled me. I spent a lot of effort to get rid of him. By the time I came ashore, I was already here. At that time, I was cold and hungry. I wasn't familiar with Hangzhou, so I could only find a small village nearby to eat, change clothes, and take a bath. When I returned this morning, I saw big brother Gao Qiu looking for me. "
Xu Wei's eyes flickered. Naturally, he had doubts about his words. He said with a smile, "Little Brother Lin has good skills. But was the bandit that escaped a man or a woman?"
"This … I've never touched it." Lin Wanrong said without blinking.
Xu Wei laughed. "It doesn't matter if one escaped. Their leader has already fallen into our hands. Those shrimp soldiers and crab generals naturally won't cause any trouble." As the two were talking, someone came to report. "Reporting to Daren Xu, that Lady Xiao has returned to Jinling."
"When did she leave?" Xu Wei asked in surprise.
"This lowly one was ordered by Daren to report the news of Sir Lin's safe return to Lady Xiao. When Lady Xiao heard about it, she said that she wanted to return to Jinling."
"Lady Xiao left?" Xu Wei asked curiously. "Last night, Lady Xiao was so anxious that she stayed on the boat with Qing Lian. She didn't sleep well the whole night, and told me to immediately pass on Little Brother Lin's news to her. Now that Little Brother Lin has returned, why didn't she even see him? Did she just leave like that? "
Damn, this Grand Mistress is really heartless. She was still joking and joking yesterday. I'm back, but she ran away without even greeting me. I'll settle the score with her when I return to Jinling. I haven't even split the money I've earned recently.
"Did Grand Mistress say what I should do?" Lin Wanrong asked.
"Lady Xiao asked Sir Lin to return to Jinling on your own after you've dealt with matters here."
Deal with matters here? I'm just a lowly servant of the Xiao Family, what kind of business do I have to deal with? It's obvious that she doesn't want to see me, yet she's still finding such a cheap excuse.
Xu Wei looked at him and said meaningfully, "Little Brother Lin, please forgive this old man for speaking bluntly, with your talent and knowledge, With your talent and knowledge, being a lowly servant of the Xiao Family is truly unfair to you. If little brother doesn't mind, this old man can recommend you. With little brother's talent, I'm sure you'll achieve great things and have a bright future. "
"A bright future?" Lin Wanrong smiled faintly. "What kind of future?"
Xu Wei said, "To become an official, to serve the country and bring prosperity to the people."
Lin Wanrong sighed. "Mister Xu, was that your dream when you were young?"
Xu Wei was stunned. Lin San's question had a deeper meaning, implying that it was just his dream when he was young. This was indeed true. At his age, Xu Wei had seen a lot of darkness and played many tricks. The passion of his youth had long faded, so how could he still find traces of his dream?
Dream? Dream my ass. Go ask those old farmers who buried their heads in the fields. What dreams do they have? Eating and wearing clothes are their biggest dreams. What 'serving the country and bringing prosperity to the people'? Slogans like you are the ones who are corrupt and take advantage of the common people. If there's a day when the world doesn't have officials like you, then it'll be true peace.
Lin Wanrong took a deep breath and said, "Mister Xu, I'm just an ordinary person. I haven't read the books of the saints, nor have I thought about saving the country and the people. As long as others don't bully me, I just want to be an ordinary person and live the rest of my life in peace. This can be considered my dream. It's just like working in the Xiao Family. The madams and young ladies of the Xiao Family all treat me well. Being with them is very fulfilling and stress-free. It's far more relaxing and comfortable than being an official. As a person, it's better not to have too many dreams. It's already a gift from the heavens to live a peaceful and stable life every day. "
Xu Wei couldn't help but sigh in his heart when he heard Lin Fan's words. Lin Fan had actually mercilessly rejected this opportunity that countless people yearned for even in their dreams. This Little Brother Lin's actions were always out of the ordinary. He truly had the demeanor of a great master.
Live a peaceful and stable life every day? This was probably an extravagant hope. Lin Wanrong sighed in his heart and his expression became bleak.
