    ☆, beacon smoke 6

    On this day, there was a long line of cars parked on the street from Shuai Mansion to Guan Mansion.Li Zheng’s eldest sister Li Yuan was not married to a high-ranking member of the Huai Army, but to the Guan family, a prominent local family in Jinling, and her residence happened to be very close to the Marshal’s Mansion.It was only eight o’clock in the morning, and the entire Guan Mansion was already very lively. A Russian band was invited to play music outside the gate to welcome guests. Half the street was filled with trumpets, laughter, and firecrackers…

    Kong Xi led Yao Ji and the Eighth Concubine to the banquet. Due to the strict rules of the Guan family, official guests and hall guests were not in the same place. Yao Ji and the Eighth Concubine followed the waiter until they walked to the flower hall in the back garden, only to see Li Yuan standing at the door to welcome guests.

    She has a very different temperament from Li Shu. Even though she was dressed up today, she still looked gentle and kind.Because of the marriage between the two families, Yao Ji also visited Guan Mansion several times. The eighth aunt was too busy drinking tea and watching a theater with her group of little sisters, so Li Yuan invited Yao Ji to play cards with her.

    Yao Ji had a good impression of her, so she smiled and sat down to play four or five rounds with her.With the birthday girl around, everyone is naturally attentive and will play whatever cards Li Yuan wants.In just half an hour, Li Yuan won more than a thousand yuan. She was in a good mood and saw Yao Ji looking slightly tired, so she said, “If Miss Kong is tired, why not go and have a rest. It’s too early to leave now.” She called the servant over, “Take Miss Kong to the room where she rested last time.”

    Yao Ji quickly stood up and thanked her, then followed the servant to a small foreign-style building behind the flower hall.There are a few peach trees planted outside the building, which have long lost their flowers. This place is specially used by the Guan Mansion to entertain relatives and family members. Although there are many visitors today, most of them are here for Li Zheng.Therefore, it was extremely quiet in the foreign-style building. Yao Ji went to the third guest room on the second floor. She was indeed very tired. It was not because of anything else, but because she had been running around for club activities yesterday and had not stopped all day long.

    Probably because once people get busy, they no longer have the time to think about what is available and what is not.She hadn’t thought about Li Zheng for a long time. Even if she came to Guan Mansion as a guest today, knowing that she was bound to bump into Li Zheng, she could still feel calm.

    This is good, Yaoyao, you did a good job.

    The guest room was small and quite warmly decorated. Two sets of velvet sofas were placed in the center. She walked over and took off her shoes. As expected, she found a blister on her heel.Because they were newly worn and not broken yet, Yao Ji couldn’t help but have a headache. She felt uncomfortable when she put on the shoes, but if they were simply punctured, it would not be good to cause blood marks at other people’s homes.While I was thinking about it, I suddenly heard a loud bang outside the door, as if porcelain was broken and fell to the ground.

    The woman’s voice came over, so low that Yao Ji didn’t hear it clearly.She felt that the voice was a bit familiar, it seemed to be… Ruan Mingzhu?

    Somehow, she quietly walked behind the door with bare feet and opened the door silently a crack.

    The voice got louder. She heard it right. It was indeed Ruan Mingzhu.But Ruan Mingzhu stopped talking now. Instead, she covered her mouth and started crying.A figure flashed past the door very quickly, and then Ruan Mingzhu chased after him. The two people seemed to be pulling each other in the corridor. Ruan Mingzhu kept begging, as if to say: “Please… give me a chance…”

    Yao Ji couldn’t help but open the crack in the door wider and wider, trying to see clearly who the person held by Ruan Mingzhu was.It happened that the man seemed to throw away Ruan Mingzhu’s hand and strode back. Ruan Mingzhu rushed forward to grab him, and a woman’s scream suddenly sounded, followed by the man’s extremely cold and angry voice: “Get out!”

    He raised his arm and pressed his hand on the door next to him. Fortunately, the door opened.The skylight shines in through the Western stained glass outside the corridor, and the brocade carpet in the house is full of colorful clusters.

    The girl stood in that patch of beauty, her braids usually tied up were untied, her long green hair was spread over her shoulders, and she was wearing a moon-white wide-sleeved placket and a silver silk gauze skirt.Since I was here for a banquet today, I dressed up a little, not too much. I just put a pendant of emerald autumn leaves on my ear, which shimmered in the beauty.

    “Brother-in-law…” She seemed to be stunned, her little face moved slightly, and the pendant swayed like a swing. There was a bright light in her eyes, just like that day when she was in his arms, begging him pitifully, but the more she begged, the more the fire in his heart became stronger.

    With a bang, the man raised his hand and closed the door behind him.

    Yao Ji couldn’t help but wince, and heard Ruan Mingzhu rushing towards the door and knocking on the door: “Brother-in-law, she…”

    “Ignore her,” Li Zheng replied lightly. There was no anger on his face, but Yao Ji could tell that the voice was extremely cold. He strode over and sat on the sofa. He frowned and loosened his collar, “I’ll just sit down and leave.”

    Yao Ji was helpless and poured a cup of tea for Li Zheng: “Drink some to relieve the hangover.”

    He raised his head and glanced at Yao Ji, then lowered his eyes suddenly, took the tea cup and sipped: “Yeah.” In fact, he didn’t drink too much, and there was no alcohol smell on his clothes, but she noticed that he was a little drunk. Sitting on the sofa, his vision seemed hazy.

    The knocking on the door disappeared at some point. Yao Ji stood there, wanting to move, but she was afraid that if she did, something would be broken.But after all, they couldn’t remain silent like this, “Brother-in-law…” She took a step forward, and was about to tell Li Zheng that Ruan Mingzhu was gone when suddenly there was a stinging pain in her heels. She couldn’t help but hissed and lowered her head to look. It turned out that there were scum in the carpet that had not been cleaned, and it happened to break the blister.

    “Why are you bleeding?” Li Zheng’s frown became tighter, and his eyes fell on the two bare feet exposed under the gauze skirt. Yao Ji subconsciously retracted her feet into the skirt as if she had been burned.

    “It’s nothing, it’s just worn out.”

    “Show me.” Li Zheng couldn’t say anything else, grabbed her, picked her up and put her on the sofa.

    “No.” The girl stretched out her legs to push him away, but he grabbed her ankles and refused to let go. The skin of the tentacles was soft and smooth, like fine suede silk or light feathers from the West.The wound was very small, and the blood only seeped out a little. Li Zheng dipped his finger in it, and the delicate body under his palm shook slightly. The little man looked up at him, like a docile lamb, scared and in love.

    He thought that he couldn’t care about anything anymore, no matter how she cried or begged.

    He lowered his head and licked the wound.
