Chapter 185 One word
I don't know when the moon quietly hung on the canopy, and there was still a sultry heat in the air, and there was a faint smell of night fragrance. From the initial lightness to the intensity later, it made my heart irritated.
When he opened the courtyard door, he saw Cui Yuan standing under the stone steps, but he was alone.
Lin Huazhi looked up and could faintly see several figures not far away, which should be Cui Yuan's bodyguard.
"Miss Lin, excuse me." It was rare for Cui Yuan to show a smile, but he felt a little dazzling in Lin Huazhi's eyes.
Lin Huazhi waited for a long time before asking softly, "It's so late. Is there anything wrong with Mr. Cui?" She did not invite Cui Yuan into the house. In fact, from the moment she saw Cui Yuan, the uneasiness that had been suppressed in her heart became stronger and stronger.
This man may be more dangerous than expected.
Cui Yuan raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at Lin Huazhi: "Won't Miss Lin invite me to sit in?" After saying that, without waiting for Lin Huazhi to say anything, Cui Yuan wiped Lin Huazhi's shoulder and squeezed into the yard.
Lin Huazhi couldn't help frowning. What is this? Breaking into a private house?
Although he was not happy, when he saw Cui Yuan standing in the courtyard well and looked left and right curiously, Lin Huazhi had to sigh slightly, closed the courtyard door and turned to meet him.
"Cui Gongzi..."
"Miss Lin may not remember that I once saw you in Beijing." Before Lin Huazhi finished his words, Cui Yuan opened his mouth to grab her.
What? Lin Huazhi was shocked. Cui Yuan said that he had seen her and was still in Beijing. Lin Huazhi thought about it carefully, but after thinking about it for a long time, she couldn't remember when she saw Cui Yuan somewhere in Beijing.
Maybe seeing the confusion on Lin Huazhi's face, Cui Yuan kindly mentioned to her, "The Zhang family, the day the old master held the legal affairs."
Oh, Lin Huazhi remembered that that day was really lively. Many people came to the Zhang family, and many senior officials in the court also went to visit Mr. Zhang. But... she still has no idea about Cui Yuan's impression.
With a slight cough, Lin Huazhi did not want to continue to struggle with this problem. She asked, "Mr. Cui, since you have found my home, you might as well say something." With that, she handed Cui Yuan's veil to him from her sleeve.
He looked down at the veil on Lin Huazhi's hand. Cui Yuan did not reach out to take it, but asked Lin Huazhi, "Does the girl like this veil?"
Lin Huazhi suddenly stopped talking. A big man asked her such a thing, and it was dangerous no matter how she looked at it. If she was heard by others, she would definitely say that she had an affair with Cui Yuan. In Lin Huazhi's eyes, Cui Yuan's words seemed to be flirting with her. Lin Huazhi regretted a little. If she had known that there would be such an embarrassment, she should not have taken over the things handed over by Cui Yuan in the antique shop.
Repent.
I haven't seen Lin Huazhi answer for a long time, and Cui Yuan didn't urge her, but just looked at her leisurely. This feeling made Lin Huazhi uneasy and angry. Was she like a mouse being teased by a cat in Cui Yuan's eyes at this time?
Sett down, Lin Huazhi withdrew her hand and looked carefully at the handkerchief in her hand: "This is Su embroidery. The stitches are fine. I'm afraid it is not made by ordinary embroidery women. The handkerchief is colorful, but it is hard to imagine that it will be Mr. Cui's belongings. As for this cloth..." With a hand touch, smooth and soft, unlike ordinary satin, Lin Huazhi can't tell for a moment.
"This is silk, but there are some Tianshan camel velvet in it, so it is softer than ordinary cloth." Cui Yuan's low voice was a little ambiguous by the night.
Hearing Cui Yuan's words, an idea suddenly appeared in Lin Huazhi's mind and looked up at Cui Yuan. He couldn't help but be a little confused. Cui Yuan said this to her, could it be...
Lin Huazhi squeezed her cracked lips and spit out a few words: "Is it woven by Cui Jiaxiu?"
Cui Yuan didn't answer, just laughed at Lin Huazhi.
And Lin Huazhi has not been in the mood to appreciate Cui Yuan's smile at first sight. Cui Yuan's silence means that it means that the Cui family can weave such a good cloth handkerchief, so he is aware that Cui Yuan is bound to get the dyeing workshop in the hands of the Chen clan. And he came here for only one purpose today.
With a sigh of relief, Lin Huazhi looked up at Cui Yuan: "Is Mr. Cui here to warn me? Or do you want to threaten me? The prince is really good at choosing the time. At this end, you don't have to pretend. You can do whatever you want.
Cui Yuan asked, "Why did Miss Lin mean this? How could I threaten the girl?"
Lin Huazhi has been in a good mood for a long time. Hearing Cui Yuan's words, she couldn't help sneer: "Concently speaking, with the prince's status today, he doesn't have to come to say these words to me in person. If he is appreciated by the prince on weekdays, it may be that his ancestors have burned high incense. However, the prince started step by step from the beginning, and at this time, he didn't explain that it was not the gentleman's work.
"The girl is so smart, do you still need me to elaborate? Miss Lin is a smart person, and naturally she can understand my painstaking efforts. Cui Yuan is not a good stubble. Following Lin Huazhi's words, it became Lin Huazhi's fault again.
Lin Huazhi's pink face was cold: "What painstaking? If I am really smart and clever as the prince said, I can't be as bitter as this time. Let me guess, if I don't agree to the prince's request after a while, will there be some unpleasant words in Jiangdong City tomorrow? For example, poor women are greedy for wealth, rushing to throw themselves to the officials from Beijing and beg for a man's personal veil in private.
Cui Yuan continued to smile: "Miss Lin also said that she was a confused person. She was really smart. No wonder Ting'er is not your opponent."
"The prince praised it, but it's a pity that I don't have a good brother. The prince is really elegant and calculating. Yes, Lin Huazhi has regretted it for a long time. She really shouldn't take any veil. Now she has been designed, but it's too late to regret it.
Lin Huazhi can even think of several possibilities, but no matter which one possibility, there is only one result. Cui Yuan is forcing her. Although she still doesn't fully understand what Cui Yuan designed her for, it should be the same as her earlier design with a big mouth, and everything is just for dyeing.
However, Lin Huazhi was not sure how much Cui Yuan knew about her and Qingling. It seems that Cui Yuan doesn't know much. Nine times out of ten, he still wants to target Mao's big mouth through her. Although Cui Yuan also has a way to deal with Mao Dazui, it is not as easy as Lin Huazhi with no background.
It's really "people are good at being bullied, and horses are good at being ridden". Lin Huazhi is very angry. Sure enough, Cui is not a good thing. She and Cui must have a great hatred in her last life.
Just as Lin Huazhi couldn't help trembling all over, Cui Yuan suddenly stretched out his hand and pointed straight to her face.
subconsciously took a step back, but he staggered. Although he didn't fall down, Cui Yuan had already held her hand in the blink of an eye.
Cui Yuan's thumb gently pressed on Lin Huazhi's weak wrist, and then whispered, "The rumors just now are interesting. It's rare to see such a moonlight..."
Before Cui Yuan finished speaking, Lin Huazhi raised his foot and kicked Cui Yuan's calf fiercely. He only heard her shout, "There is already a shameless girl. Is it possible that Lord Cui still wants to rely on his official prestige to force good women and humiliate the Cui family?"
Cui Yuan was stunned and didn't care about the pain from his calf. He looked up at Lin Huazhi, and his face was covered with frost.
Lin Huazhi was not afraid. She won a few times, but her hand was held tighter and tighter by Cui Yuan, and her wrist was faintly painful. Lin Huazhi looked at Cui Yuan and said nothing, but her eyes were like an iceberg. She didn't mind kick Cui Yuan again.
"Sister, the noodles are ready. Do you...do you want to eat it?"
Apricot suddenly emerged from the kitchen and carried a bowl of cold noodles in her hand, but she was obviously shocked by everything she saw in front of her and could not even say anything.
"Lord Cui, please go back. You are not welcome here."
Lin Huazhi actually wants to say only one word, get out of here.
