Chapter 666, Step by Step, Heart-Stopping
Regardless of how much turmoil Guo Luoluo Minghui felt upon hearing these words, Lin Jiu left after saying what she needed to say.
She'd already made herself so clear; staying any longer and just staring at each other like that wouldn't do. She had no time for that.
Upon returning to the manor, Lin Jiu saw Yin Tang looking at her with a resentful expression as soon as she entered the door. She raised one foot in the air, and then stepped back the next second.
"This is bad," Lin Jiu thought to himself, and sure enough, Yin Tang's expression became even more mournful, his resentment enough to feed ten evil sword immortals.
"Ajiu, you don't love me anymore. You've been gone for so long and I've been waiting for so long!" Yinjiu's phoenix eyes drooped slightly as he pretended to look pitiful.
Lin Jiu's lips twitched. What kind of outrageous talk was this person spouting? In front of everyone, he had no shame at all!
Noticing Yu Ling and Granny Zhao's sly smiles, and He Yuzhu's embarrassed expression, Lin Jiu was speechless.
Seeing someone become even more pretentious, Lin Jiu felt an itch in her hands, so she went forward, took Yin Tang's hand, pulled him into the house, closed the door, and shut out the strange looks from those outside.
Lin Jiu closed the door, turned to look at the drama queen, and said helplessly, "Stop it, this expression doesn't suit you, it'll make you a laughing stock!"
Yinzhen's lips twitched slightly, but he quickly regained his composure and said with a serious expression, "Who dares to laugh at this prince!"
Seeing this, Lin Jiu couldn't help but chuckle. Weren't all the people in the courtyard laughing at you just now?
Yinzhen pretended not to notice his wife's sarcasm and continued to ask, "Ajiu, why are you home so late today?"
If he hadn't known his wife's fighting prowess, he would have led his men out to search for her.
Lin Jiu didn't hide anything and directly told everyone about her encounter with Eighth Sister-in-law.
As Lin Jiu spoke, Yin Tang's expression gradually became complicated.
Sometimes his expression was as gloomy as water, and other times he would reveal a hint of barely perceptible anger.
When Lin Jiu finally finished speaking, his face was expressionless, as still as stagnant water.
However, upon closer inspection, one can detect a hint of displeasure deep within his eyes.
Yinzhen clenched his teeth and squeezed out a sentence: "Ajiu, ignore her!"
The coldness in his tone made Lin Jiu glance at him, but after thinking about it, she realized that this was indeed Yin Tang's nature. However, after a little thought, she understood that this was Yin Tang's consistent style—even if the other party was his own sister, he never showed much intimacy.
As for his cousin, Guo Luoluo Minghui, who was only a neighbor, she naturally had no right to interfere with any of his decisions.
Moreover, this practice of secretly contacting Lin Jiu really displeased Yinzhen. He didn't believe that Yinsi was unaware that Minghui had contacted Ajiu!
Looking at Yinzhen's expression, Lin Jiu knew he wasn't thinking anything good, so she changed the subject, saying, "I heard from He Yuzhu that Father Emperor wants you to come to the palace to discuss something. What is it? Can I hear it?"
Upon hearing this, Yinzhen smiled helplessly. It wasn't that he couldn't say it, but he felt that if he said it again, the image of his father, the Emperor, would be shattered in his mind.
He never expected that the old man would summon him to the palace for cement and glass. Although he had originally planned to hand these two items over to his father, he hadn't even finished all the experiments yet. Was he being a little too hasty?
Kangxi: "..." Nonsense, all she does is cling to her wife all day long, she never thinks to report important matters to him. If he doesn't bring it up, it will be a long time before she does.
