The concubine is soft and delicate, making her the treacherous minister's white moonlight

Chapter 146: It's really twisted
She could understand Jiang Yanran, after all, she moved around frequently, but what about Bai Yun? Why was she here for no reason?
Lin Mowan frowned, feeling confused, but since the person was already there, she couldn't just turn them away for no reason, so after a little hesitation, she told Yuzhi to invite the person in.

Jiang Yanran entered the room and Lin Mowan came to greet her. They smiled at each other, and everything was said without words. However, when Lin Mowan looked at the white clouds behind her, Jiang Yanran's face showed some helplessness.

On the other hand, Bai Yun seemed to be fine. She walked into the room on her own. She didn't look like a visitor at all, but rather like she was going home. She bypassed Lin Mowan and went straight into the inner room.

After carefully looking around the room, she showed a hint of disdain in her eyes, curled her lips and said, "This place is not as good as your Ziteng Garden. I don't understand why you have to come back."

Lin Mowan lowered her eyes and said nothing. It seemed that there was no need to explain to her. After all, even if she did, she might not understand.

Bai Yun sat aside, picked up the tea on the table and poured himself a cup. Lin Mowan didn't say anything, but signaled Yuzhi to go out first, close the door, and take Jiang Yanran to sit aside.

"Madam," after a moment of silence, Lin Mowan couldn't help but speak: "You came here suddenly, you didn't just want to have tea, did you?"

Bai Yun has never been one to like beating around the bush. Being straightforward is her usual style. Sure enough, after hearing what Lin Mowan said, she paused for a moment, frowned, and had a complicated expression.

After a long silence, she slowly turned her gaze to Jiang Yanran beside her. Jiang Yanran naturally understood the slight request in her eyes, so she turned to look at Lin Mowan for a decision.

Lin Mowan hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded at her. Jiang Yanran then slowly stood up and left.

"There's no one else here now, so you can speak now," Lin Mowan said.

She always understood the principle that one would not visit someone without a request. Moreover, her relationship with Bai Yun was not really that good. At most, they were acquaintances. If you really want to be picky, their relationship was not as good as her relationship with Luo Qiao Niang.

Although there is a gap between her and Luo Qiaoniang, apart from the factor of Pei Jingjian, they have the potential to become close friends.

Bai Yun nodded, but he just put down the cup thoughtfully, thinking for a moment, and then asked her: "What do you think of Shen Weiyuan?"

"..."

Lin Mowan was stunned, obviously expecting her to ask this question. Somehow, she was still calm and composed, thinking that she could deal with it as it came. But when she asked this question, her heart was like a chess game that was suddenly messed up.

She slowly lowered her eyes, intentionally or unintentionally avoiding the other person's sincere and passionate gaze, and then forced herself to calm down and think carefully before saying, "Lang Yan is unique, there is no other like him in the world."

Hearing this, Bai Yun curled his lips in satisfaction and asked, "Then do you like him?"

This time Lin Mowan did not answer, but looked up at her again, with a hint of contempt and impatience in her eyes, "If Madam just came here to talk about these things, I am not interested."

Faced with Lin Mowan's indifference, Bai Yun was not discouraged. Instead, he glanced at her with an "I understand" expression, exhaled heavily, leaned back in his chair, and tapped the table lightly with his slender knuckles.

She smiled mysteriously, as if she saw through Lin Mowan's deliberate avoidance. She only said meaningfully: "Some people are really twisted. They like someone but won't say it, and make others guess. What? Do you really think that anyone can read your mind just by looking at your emotionless face?" In fact, Bai Yun really didn't understand. To her, if she liked someone, she liked him, and if she didn't like someone, she didn't like him. Back then, she and Xiao Sheng could be said to have grown up together.

Since she was little, she liked to run after Xiao Sheng, who was only two years older than her. They were both from generals' families. Bai family had only one daughter, Bai Yun, so she was brought up in a pampered manner and was allowed to do whatever she wanted.

Xiao Sheng, Bai Yun and Shen Weiyuan's families are old friends, so the three have known each other since they can remember. Xiao Sheng and Bai Yun even go to the military camp with their family elders all day long.

As time went by, the two became closer and closer, quarreling all the time. They said they looked down on each other, but in their hearts they both understood each other very well. It was just that neither of them was willing to speak first, and they were stubborn until the Bai family decided to send Bai Yun to the palace to choose a concubine.

The night when the Bai family first proposed this idea, she couldn't sleep at all, so she took her spear and rushed to the Xiao family. The two families often visited each other, and the servants in the mansion recognized her. Seeing her coming with such a fierce momentum, they thought that the two little ancestors were fighting again, so no one dared to stop her.

Until she rushed into Xiao Sheng's room, slapped Xiao Sheng awake, and then picked him up from the bed. Her eyes were red for the first time, and she grabbed his collar and asked him: "Will you marry me? If you don't marry me, I will go to the palace to choose a concubine. When the time comes, don't blame me for not wanting you."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Sheng was immediately awakened from his doze. He broke free from Bai Yun's hand and jumped three feet high. He grabbed her shoulders as if he was facing a great enemy: "What!! You want to enter the palace?! Who allowed you to enter the palace?! You can't enter the palace! What will I do if you enter the palace? Do you want me to live alone for the rest of my life? I don't want to!"

Thus, the marriage between the two families was settled.

Bai Yun is lively and outgoing, while Xiao Sheng can barely be considered humorous, though a bit dull most of the time. However, compared to the dull Shen Weiyuan, he is much better.

As for Shen Weiyuan, Bai Yun has never liked Shen Weiyuan's personality since he was a child. He is eccentric, twisted, and often a little stubborn. People say that one will not turn back until he hits the wall, and will not cry until he sees the coffin.

For Shen Weiyuan, it means hitting a wall, even if it means getting broken head and bleeding, he will break the wall and make a way out. If he sees a coffin, he will open it and take a look, even if there is no breath, he will snatch it back from the King of Hell.

From childhood to adulthood, Shen Weiyuan was the most tolerant. Even if he broke his leg, he would not make a sound. She often felt that Shen Weiyuan might really have lost his sense of pain.

However, today's words were obviously meant for Lin Mowan to hear. For some reason, the usually calm Lin Mowan seemed to be completely unable to control her temper this time. She frowned and immediately retorted: "That's my own business. How does it bother you?"

Bai Yun didn't get angry but laughed instead, and even raised her eyebrows with interest. In her impression, this guy would not be so easily angered. It seemed that he really touched her heart.

While thinking, Bai Yun sneered, pretending to be innocent, and said with a false look of grievance: "What are you doing? So fierce? I didn't say anything about you. I said that the widow Wang on the southwest corner of the street fell in love with the scholar Liu on the northeast street. Why are you so angry?"

"..."

Lin Mowan was choked by these words. She realized that she had been tricked by her for no reason. For a moment, she felt like there was a lump in her chest, unable to breathe in or out. She felt very uncomfortable.

She lowered her eyes again, with an uncontrollable guilty look in her eyes, but she did not say a word to defend herself. Seeing this, Bai Yun put on a mean look again and asked, "So, who do you like? Is it Shen Weiyuan?"
