Although everything was fine, Shen Kuang still regretted his carelessness afterwards.

There are some things that are not allowed to go wrong, such as his identity with Su Yao. In comparison, very few people know about Shen Kuang's identity, but it cannot withstand scrutiny. If anyone is looking for clues to investigate, as a master With the reputation of the Sword God and the extraordinary Youya Sword in his hand, it might be possible to finally find out Shen Kuang's identity. Therefore, when talking about something with Yu Wenyuan and Jiang Ning, he did not Won't say too much.

Su Yao was not frightened by the appearance of those people from Supervisor Tiansi. Perhaps her last brush with death made her feel more calm, so this time her eyes were clear and her expression was calm.

Shen Kuang also didn't know that the person who almost killed Su Yao last time was the little Tiansi in black who passed them by. All accidents came and went quickly.

The meals Jiang Ning ordered were very sumptuous. For Shen Kuang, he had never been able to eat such meals even during the holidays before, so he had a huge appetite and enjoyed the meal very much. But it seemed that except for him, the other four People are not that interested.

Although Yu Wenyuan was not restrained, he always maintained a polite attitude, and Su Yao and Jiang Ning on the side were even more tactful. So after eating for a while, Shen Kuang had to sit upright, slow down his chopsticks, and try not to look too embarrassed. Doesn't fit in with other people.

They ate in silence and slept in silence. The few people at the dinner table rarely spoke, and the occasional eye contact was mostly just a quick smile, and there was not much talk. The meal gradually ended in such a quiet atmosphere. .

Su Yao dropped the chopsticks first, followed closely by the other three. In the end, Shen Kuang was left alone with chopsticks in his hand, considering what dish to pick. After Shen Kuang saw the eyes of several people looking at him, He smiled awkwardly, quickly finished the last bite of rice in the bowl, and put down his chopsticks.

After eating, Yu Wenyuan and Shen Kuang exchanged a few words with each other and then stood up to leave.

Shen Kuang and Su Yao also planned to say goodbye after Yu Wenyuan left. They stood side by side opposite Jiang Ning. Shen Kuang bowed his hands and said: "Miss Jiang, it's getting late. It's time for Miss Su and I to go back. Thank you very much." Miss Jiang’s treat today.”

Chen'er, who had sent Yu Wenyuan away, also returned to the room at this time. She opened the door with a creak, and several people walked over.

After retracting her gaze, Jiang Ning first glanced at Su Yao, and then turned her attention to Shen Kuang.

She frowned slightly, as if she was struggling with something.

"Master Shen..." Jiang Ning said softly.

Shen Kuang noticed the change in Jiang Ning's expression, so he asked directly: "Miss Jiang, is there anything else?"

After hearing what Shen Kuang said, Jiang Ning relaxed her brows, as if she had finally made up her mind, straightened her posture, looked at Shen Kuang with a smile and said: "Actually, Jiang Ning has something to discuss with Mr. Shen. I wonder if it can delay Mr. Shen. moment."

Seeing her reserved expression, Shen Kuang thought it was something big, but now he realized that they were just discussing one thing, so he smiled nonchalantly and said, "Miss Jiang, if you have anything to say, please tell me directly. If I can help, I will definitely help."

After Shen Kuang finished speaking, Jiang Ning looked at Su Yao.

Su Yao understood what she meant, so she turned her head and looked at Shen Kuang and said, "I'll wait for you here. Come back to me after you've discussed it."

Shen Kuang asked, "Then I'll be back soon, and you'll wait for me here." Then, he followed Jiang Ning and left the room.

On the way, Jiang Ning said she needed to prepare some things, so Chen'er led Shen Kuang all the way. After a while, Chen'er led him up to a three-story attic and walked to the third floor. Chen'er pushed aside a After opening the door, he said softly to Shen Kuang: "Mr. Shen, please come in!"

Shen Kuang nodded slightly and walked in without much thought. As soon as he walked in, a faint fragrance hit his face. This fragrance was quite special. It was neither the fragrance of flowers nor the smell of rouge that he often smelled in Hongni Alley. .And Shen Kuang vaguely remembered the smell, which was very similar to the smell on the name card given by Jiang Ning that day.

Chen'er poured a cup of tea for Shen Kuang and gently placed it in front of him. "Mr. Shen, please wait here for a moment. My lady will be here soon." After doing this, she calmed down without waiting for Shen Kuang to ask. He slowly exited the room and closed the door.

With nothing to do, Shen Kuang looked around and looked around. Judging from the decorations, Shen Kuang felt that this looked like his daughter's boudoir. The window on his left was open, and the moonlight was shining in the room.

The room was very large, and the door faced a landscape screen. I guess behind it was the embroidered bed, where the girl would change her clothes and sleep every day. Shen Kuang knew that, so he didn't look at it more. A gentleman should be cautious and don't look at anyone who is indecent. Got it. On the left side of the door, there is a simple guqin placed on a low wooden table. The sound of the piano is black and very elegant. On the tall bookcase next to the square wooden table, there are neatly placed

Pen, ink, paper and inkstone, Shen Kuang thought that Miss Jiang was also a woman who was proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting.

There weren't many furnishings on the side near the window edge. A long sword hanging on the wall attracted Shen Kuang's attention. People who practice swordsmanship naturally like swords. Shen Kuang stood up and took a closer look. He didn't see the sword. If there is anything special about it, he will shift his attention.

Although it was already dark at this time, there were still silhouettes of people on the edge of the Li River, and cars and horses were constantly coming and going. The view from the window was very wide, and you could see the lights on the river bank and the blur in the night at a glance. The sky in the distance suddenly bloomed. Several huge and dazzling fireworks attracted Shen Kuang's attention for a moment. He stood in front of the window, looking at the scenery under the moon, with many thoughts. Even when Jiang Ning opened the door and came in, Shen Kuang didn't notice it.

"Young Master Shen!" A clear call came from behind him. Shen Kuang came back to his senses and turned around. When he saw Jiang Ning, he was stunned for a moment.

Jiang Ning had not been away for long, but she had changed her clothes. At this moment, she was wearing a light blue dress, with white dots of red plums embroidered on the skirt. Her waist was tied with water-blue silk and soft smoke. An elegant bow, both playful and beautiful. Her long dark hair was randomly tied into a bun, with a plum blossom white jade hairpin stuck across it, casual yet elegant. She was lightly painted with pink and red, and her lips were not too red.

At that moment, Shen Kuang felt that there was nothing more beautiful than the one described in the novel.

Shen Kuang looked at Shen Kuang in trance for a moment, but Jiang Ning didn't point it out. There was a smile on her cheeks, and she just looked at Shen Kuang.

Shen Kuang soon realized that something was wrong. He first murmured "Don't look at anything inappropriate" in a low voice, then looked at Jiang Ning apologetically and said, "I'm sorry, Miss Jiang."

However, Jiang Ning didn't care at all about Shen Kuang's look that she just said was rude but was not considered rude, so she just chuckled and said: "My daughter's family is dressed up just to look at others. Mr. Shen likes to say that it was Jiang Ning who dressed up." nice."

She said it casually and easily, something Shen Kuang never expected, but in order not to appear too embarrassed, he no longer thought about his previous embarrassment.

Knowing that there was something to talk about, after Shen Kuang calmed down, he went straight to the point and said, "You still don't know why Miss Jiang wants to see me?"

Jiang Ning chuckled lightly and motioned for Shen Kuang to sit down first. She did not answer Shen Kuang's question directly, but asked with a smile: "Have Mr. Shen ever heard of Jiang Ning's name before?"

Her big flashing eyes were fixed on Shen Kuang, as if she was looking forward to Shen Kuang's answer.

Although Shen Kuang was curious about Jiang Ning's intention in asking these questions, he still nodded and replied: "I've naturally heard of Miss Jiang Ning, who was given the title of Oiran by the talented people in Meiwu City."

"Oiran." Jiang Ning murmured softly, and then said very directly: "Does Mr. Shen think Oiran is beautiful?"

Shen Kuang was even a little frightened by Jiang Ning's straightforward question. He looked at the other party blankly and didn't know how to answer. Isn't it all the shyness of his daughter's family? Why did he become so bold when he came to Jiang Ning's place? Already.

Jiang Ning was amused by Shen Kuang's embarrassed expression, so she covered her face and chuckled.

Then, she heard Shen Kuang say: "Miss Jiang, please stop joking. Let's get down to business. Is Miss Su still waiting for me?"

Hearing Shen Kuang talk about Su Yao, Jiang Ning lost interest in continuing to make fun of Shen Kuang. She murmured, her voice neither loud nor quiet, just enough for Shen Kuang to hear clearly, very clearly.

"Miss Su, Miss Su Yao, the Su family!"

Shen Kuang was struck by lightning. Jiang Ning's words rang in his ears, and he was temporarily absent-minded. The short cross caused huge waves in Shen Kuang's heart. However, Shen Kuang pretended very well and did not show any signs of it. .

Jiang Ning was still the same as before, speaking casually and relaxedly. After speaking, she glanced at Shen Kuang intentionally or unintentionally, with a smile on her brows.

Shen Kuang was very calm. He even picked up the tea in front of him and took a sip. Shen Kuang met Jiang Ning's gaze, and neither of them dodge. For the Su family, these three simple words have such meaning. of heaviness.

Jiang Ning spoke clearly and Shen Kuang heard clearly.

Shen Kuang didn't answer anything, not a word. Jiang Ning didn't continue to say anything, because she was waiting for Shen Kuang to speak first, so the two of them made a tacit understanding not to break the silence first.

I don’t know how much time passed, but the tea in the cup in front of Shen Kuang had reached the bottom. He slowly opened his mouth and said softly: "Beyond the mountains are green mountains, and buildings are outside the buildings. It seems really powerful."

What Shen Kuang said seemed to be out of context, but at this moment, it was so timely.

Jiang Ning chuckled, her smile was beautiful. After a moment, she slowly said: "Master Shen, do you think I'm beautiful?"

The same question came up again, and this time Shen Kuang did not dodge. He nodded seriously, and then smiled and said: "The word "Shen" said in the book, "I think it is the best way to describe Miss Jiang."

as appropriate."

Hearing Shen Kuang's lame compliment, Jiang Ning smiled and corrected him: "Shen Yu Luo Yan."

Shen Kuang immediately smiled and said, "Yes, it's Chen Yu Luo Yan."

Jiang Ning then said: "Then Mr. Shen, are you willing to marry me?"

Jiang Ning is very good-looking, and her smile is also very good-looking. This is what Shen Kuang felt when he first saw her. But he just thought she was good-looking, and he had no intention of taking it for himself.

Jiang Ning was still so casual when she asked this question. She stared at Shen Kuang, waiting for Shen Kuang's embarrassed look.

But on the contrary, Shen Kuang was very calm this time. He spoke slowly: "If Miss Jiang wants to choose a lover, there should be many people flocking to her. There are many people who are worthy of Miss Jiang, but they must not be inferior to me."

Shen Kuang's expression was extremely serious. Jiang Ning could see it clearly and stopped smiling.

"Why not?" she asked.

Why can't it be? This doesn't seem to be a difficult question to answer, but at this moment it stumps Shen Kuang. Why can't it be?

"Because..." Shen Kuang looked confused for a moment and said two words, not knowing what to say next.

Jiang Ning stared at Shen Kuang. Shen Kuang did not dare to look at her, not because he was timid, but because he could not answer the question.

"Why?" Jiang Ning asked relentlessly. She smiled softly, her expression seemed very calm, but her eyes were extremely sharp.

Shen Kuang didn't want to lose momentum at this time. He suddenly thought of Dugu Nanqiao, whom he had met before, and immediately had an idea. He replied calmly: "Because I proposed to Dugu Nanqiao, a disciple of Yunmeng Mountain. Master once said Warn me, the word love is just a word, so it can be given to one person."

Hearing Shen Kuang's answer, Jiang Ning's smile gradually faded, and she said lightly: "As a disciple of Mr. Shen Nanke Sword God, I would not refuse to come to Yunmeng Mountain or General Dugu's Mansion."

Listening to Jiang Ning's words, Shen Kuang was not surprised. He seemed to be waiting for the other party to bring everything to light, just like now. He knew that Jiang Ning must know much more than that, so he With the first sentence, green mountains are beyond the mountains, and buildings are beyond the buildings.

Shen Kuang was about to say something, but Jiang Ning continued: "Don't worry, Mr. Shen, although I know the identity of you and Miss Su, I don't want to use it as a threat. On the contrary, our building outside the building will try our best to protect you." The news about Mr. Shen and Miss Su will not be leaked, but I hope Mr. Shen can agree to my three conditions."

"Should I promise you or promise Louwailou?" Shen Kuang looked at her and asked, his expression was calm and he didn't seem surprised.

"Promise me." Jiang Ning said softly.

"Then how can you guarantee that others will not leak this news? It must not be difficult to pass our news to the court and get promoted to a noble rank."

Hearing this, Jiang Ning chuckled: "Mr. Shen's words are too contemptuous of our Louwailou. Although we dare not say how powerful our Louwailou is, we still don't take it lightly for an official position in the imperial court. Shen Young Master, you can rest assured that there are no more than one person who knows the news, and these people are all my confidants and can absolutely be trusted."

"Is this what Miss Jiang wants to discuss with me?" Shen Kuang asked again.

Jiang Ning nodded.

"Isn't Miss Jiang afraid that Supervisor Tiansi will find some clues and involve Louwailou?" Shen Kuang asked next.

Jiang Ning chuckled: "We will even look down upon a Supervisor."

When she said this, Jiang Ning was very confident. Shen Kuang looked at her and knew that she was not joking. "There is no problem with the three conditions, but I hope that if we have difficulties in the future, Miss Jiang can give us some help as much as she can." .”

"Master Shen, is this the other way around to negotiate terms with me?"

"Miss Jiang, you can think so."

After Shen Kuang finished speaking, Jiang Ning looked at him deeply and thought for a long time, but did not refuse.

"Can I hear what the three conditions are before I make a decision?"

Jiang Ningze said: "I haven't thought about it yet, but Mr. Shen can rest assured that it will not be anything harmful to nature or against the moral principles of the world."

Shen Kuang also said: "I can't agree to marry Miss Jiang."

Hearing Shen Kuang's words, Jiang Ning looked at him sideways, a little unconvinced. This was the first time in so many years that she had been disliked by a man, and she didn't want to fall in love with him.

Jiang Ning nodded fiercely, indicating that she was not angry at all and agreed to Shen Kuang's words.

The fireworks in the distance bloomed in the night again. Shen Kuang, Jiang Ning and Su Yao in another room all looked over. The light of the fireworks reflected on the faces of the three of them. At that time Silent, looking at each other without words.
