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

Chapter 85 Is there something you are hiding from me?

In fact, what she wanted to ask was, didn't he have to deal with Zhou Shiran's affairs? After all, Zhou Shiran was his former junior fellow apprentice. Even if he didn't want to intervene, Qu Xiangru would probably have someone monitor the progress of the case because of their past relationship, so as not to be implicated and lose his reputation.

But how could she easily ask such a question, especially in this situation? If she really asked, wouldn't it be very suspicious?
Faced with her meaningful question, Shen Weiyuan pretended not to understand. He just leisurely flipped through the pages of the book in his hand and casually replied, "Nothing to do today." He didn't even lift his eyelids from the book.

Seeing him like this, Lin Mowan didn't ask any more questions and could only sit beside him obediently and serve him tea and water.

Time passed by minute by minute until sunset. Yuzhi came in with the intention of asking about tonight's dishes. Seeing Shen Weiyuan still not leaving, she seemed a little surprised, but she quickly adjusted herself and stepped forward to greet him: "Second Master, Miss, how about lotus seed soup tonight?"

Lin Mowan didn't respond, but looked up at Shen Weiyuan cautiously. He didn't say anything, and no one dared to move.

After a long while, he put down the book in his hand and said softly, "Okay, let's do this."

It seems that he has no intention of leaving tonight.

Yuzhi took the order and turned around to leave. Lin Mowan felt a little strange, but for a moment, she couldn't seem to tell what was wrong.

The two were eating dinner when Wei Lin, who was waiting outside, suddenly came in, walked up to Shen Weiyuan and whispered something. Shen Weiyuan then put down his chopsticks and looked a little solemn.

Although he didn't say it, according to Lin Mowan's guess, the only important thing in these days is probably Zhou Shiran's matter. After all, it is of great importance. If this matter is not handled properly, it may cause considerable impact.

As expected, he put down his chopsticks, reached out and gently held her hand, and said, "I'll be out for a while and will be back soon."

Lin Mowan smiled and nodded, then stood up and walked him out the door...

After returning to the house, she was still puzzled by Shen Weiyuan's behavior today. Did he just happen to pass by and came in to see her, and helped her out by chance, or was he coming for her?
Obviously, considering Shen Weiyuan's shrewdness, Lin Mowan felt that it was unlikely to be the latter. She had been prepared to be questioned, but now, he suddenly left, which made Lin Mowan a little confused.

But after returning, she didn't think too much about it. She quickly ate two bites and really had no appetite, so she asked someone to take everything away.

Although there was a breeze on the midsummer night, the heat from the daytime had not yet dissipated, making people feel a little restless. Since she couldn't sleep anyway, Lin Mowan simply went to sit in the yard, hoping to get some fresh air to dispel the dryness.

She sat on the chair, leaned back, closed her eyes, and gently waved the fan in her hand. A breeze blew, and the crabapple tree above her head rustled. Petals fell on her, but she was too lazy to care.

"Second Master."

After an unknown amount of time, Yuzhi's voice came from behind her. The sleepiness that had just been brewing in Lin Mowan disappeared in an instant, and she stood up from her seat almost subconsciously.

Shen Weiyuan was standing behind her, but he was not surprised by her reaction. He just looked at her with a smile, his eyes dim. Lin Mowan immediately reacted and hurriedly bowed and greeted: "Second Master."

Shen Weiyuan ignored her and sat directly where she had just sat. She was a little confused, so Shen Weiyuan just raised his hand and gently pulled her over, then scooped her up with his big hand and let her sit on his lap.

Their eyes met, and Lin Mowan admitted that she was still a little nervous at the moment. He just raised his hand, gently brushed the hair off her face, and asked in a low voice: "Are you hiding something from me?"

Upon hearing this, although she had prepared in advance, she still couldn't help but skip a beat. She thought about it, pretended to be timid and leaned towards him, and asked, "What's wrong, Master?" Seeing her like this, Shen Weiyuan's eyes became more fierce. After a short silence, he asked, "Where is the Crescent Dagger I gave you?"

Having said this, how could she still not understand what Shen Weiyuan was worth? It was true that the dagger was given to her by Shen Weiyuan, and she also used that dagger to kill Pei Jingjian.

The reason he asked this question at this time must have been because he had seen Zhou Shiran's wounds, which was why he came to question him.

Lin Mowan hesitated for a moment, then said stubbornly, "I threw it away."

It was obvious that Lin Mowan was challenging him again. Shen Weiyuan looked at her and frowned deeply. The hand holding her waist suddenly tightened, pinching the soft flesh on her waist and causing a dull pain.

Lin Mowan moved uncomfortably, but found that she couldn't move any further. Helplessly, she could only sit obediently in his arms and let him do whatever he wanted.

She simply stopped struggling and took the initiative to reach out, one hand hooked around his neck, the other hand caressed his chest, and said in a coquettish tone, like a child who had made a mistake, "So, Master won't protect me this time, right?"

After saying this, she carefully raised her aggrieved little face, her eyes that seemed to want to say something but couldn't, almost seducing people's souls away.

Shen Weiyuan's eyes darkened a little more, and a heat surged in his heart. He slowly exhaled a long breath, curled the corners of his lips, and a smile suddenly appeared in his eyes. He slowly approached her and whispered, "How do you want me to protect you? I can't give it to you for free, right?"

As he spoke, the smile in his eyes grew more intense. Lin Mowan was stunned, and felt the heat and hardness under her body. Even though it was not the first time, she only felt her cheeks burning.

But she was not an innocent girl, and of course she understood what Shen Weiyuan meant. Looking at the man so close to her, his eyes were as deep as the abyss where the sky and the sea meet in the dark night.

She looked at him, her long, white fingers moving slowly, caressing his neck. The more cautious the touch, the heavier his breathing became.

But she just stared at his eyes intently all the time, feeling his chest rising and falling more and more rapidly. In the already hot summer, this subtle touch seemed to make her even more unable to stop.

When her fingertips gently touched his Adam's apple, which was full of sexual tension, she seemed to be able to clearly feel his breathing stagnate, but Lin Mowan smiled and took the initiative to kiss his lips, from the initial light kiss to the deep kiss that lasted longer and longer.

He did not refuse and even enjoyed the feeling. She simply changed her position and sat directly on his waist. He gradually became more and more passionate and could not help but hold the back of her head and suck more and more passionately.

He took off the veil on her body, and the soft cloud changed into various shapes in his hands. The familiar numbness attacked her whole body, but the last bit of reason made Lin Mowan gently push him away a little. The blush on her face had not faded yet, and the extremely passionate kiss just now made her feel a little short of breath.

Seeing that the arrow was already strung, she suddenly stopped. Shen Weiyuan was a little distressed. He wrapped his arms around her waist tightly. The thin calluses on his hands made her feel a little itchy.

She bit her lip and said, "Come into the house."

Shen Weiyuan's gloomy expression eased slightly when he heard this. He just held her waist and ignored her pleading eyes and said, "It's too late to remember it now. I won't go in."

As he spoke, he straightened up, lowered his head and bit her delicate collarbone, and the petals of the crabapple tree fell tenderly on her fair shoulders with the wind...
