"Well...probably."

Father Nan looked at the back of Nan Lianxue's departure, propped his head up, after all, Lianxue has been closer to her sister since she was a child, and always left her parents aside...

At this time, Nan Lianxue and the others had already ran out of the hall, and sat casually in a gazebo outside the mansion.

"Huh, it's still comfortable outside."

Nan Lianxue glanced at her sister, and said lightly: "Sister, that's not what you said when you were at home."

Nan Ruoshui didn't refute, but just turned sideways, taking advantage of Nan Lianxue's inattention, turned over and lay on her lap, curled up on the bench of just the right length.

Nan Lianxue was taken aback by her sister's unexpected behavior, but that was all.

"I'm going to catch a cold." (Whispered reminder)

"It's okay." The corner of Nan Ruoshui's mouth curled up, turned over instead, and put his head close to his sister. The cold and slightly hard texture of the marble bench was under him, but a trace of Nan Lianxue's thigh came from between his forehead. The silk is soft, in contrast...

Let's just get started.

"After sleeping for a long time, there will be red marks on the face..." (slightly annoyed)

"fine."

"It will be caught while it's hot." Nan Lianxue poked her sister's cheek.

"Please—"

Nan Ruoshui turned over, with her head up, and quietly looked up at Nan Lianxue: "If Lianxue dares, once in a while, it doesn't matter."

"So, sister, you are very brave."

"Just kidding... I'm super brave, okay..."

The two girls looked at each other and smiled. On the periphery of the mansion, they could still feel a rare leisure, with no eyesores and no worries.

"Hey, sister...! Don't really fall asleep, my legs are going numb..."

"Zzz..."

"..."

Chapter 94 The Banquet Begins

My sister fell asleep.

Just like this, she was sleeping on Nan Lianxue's lap with a calm face, but even when she fell asleep, she still tightly wrapped her hands around her sister's waist, as if she was afraid of being thrown out...

Nan Lianxue pinched her sister's cheeks with both hands, rubbed them up and down, and said super kindly:

"Hey, sister, are you awake?"

"..."

There was no reply, but Nan Ruoshui's eyelashes trembled slightly.

"I'm asleep... That sister, no matter what happens later, I can't guarantee it." Nan Lianxue chuckled, slightly retracted her fingers, and then gradually stroked the white jade neck under her body.

Really bad.

The cold and slender fingers slowly poked down along the skirt of the clothes, and a trace of coolness spread on the back of Nan Ruoshui's neck.

The corner of Nan Lianxue's mouth curled into a slight smile.

——You are clearly awake, why are you pretending to be asleep?

But at the next moment, the older sister turned over gently, looked up at Nan Lianxue mercilessly, raised her hand to pinch the younger sister's chin, her red lips moved slightly:

"When I get home tonight, I wash myself and wait to be soaked."

"..."

Nan Lianxue hung her hands in the air, the corners of her mouth twitched slightly, and the expression on her face was completely frozen.

"Who knows who is not sure..."

"What did you say?"

"Did I say anything, sister?" Nan Lianxue tilted her head and blinked innocently.

Afterwards, their expressions quickly returned to normal.

"Sister, should we go back? The banquet has begun."

Nan Ruoshui sat up, looked at the white-haired housekeeper who was walking slowly, and nodded gently:

"Well, let's go."

While talking, she stretched lazily and comfortably, and then, taking advantage of Nan Lianxue's lack of attention, she lightly nibbled on her cheek.

"Be prepared, Lianxue."

"Special Mission Stage Two: Sister (Nan Ruoshui)"

"The choice of advance and retreat, the right to choose is in the hands of the host himself."

Nan Lianxue stroked the place where her sister had lightly nibbled, feeling a little dazed.

Immediately she stood up, followed behind her sister step by step, then stretched out her hand and took her sister's arm.

The white-haired butler walked up to them, then stood still, bowed slightly and said, "Miss, Madam has prepared evening dresses for you."

"No change."

Nan Ruoshui hated wearing dresses, unless it was on a very formal occasion, otherwise she would always wear casual attire, and at most she would be a white-collar uniform at work.

Seeing that the housekeeper couldn't persuade the eldest lady, he turned to Nan Lianxue and asked softly:

"What do you think, Second Miss?"

"Take us directly to mother's side."

Leaving from the garden, walking on a small path, and then returning to the huge mansion, pushing open the gate——

It's like an extravagant drama kicks off.

They were the last two to enter the arena. There is no doubt that their appearance attracted almost everyone's attention.

There is no other reason, just because they are out of tune with this place.

But there was only a moment of silence, and soon the atmosphere in the hall returned to normal, except... occasionally someone's eyes moved towards them.

Nan Lianxue leaned closer to her sister, and whispered to her sister: "Sister, mother told us to go directly to the private room on the second floor."

"I see." Nan Ruoshui nodded gently.

At this moment, a maid came over and bowed slightly to the two of them respectfully:

"Two, please follow me, we are going up from here."

But at the same time, seeing a new person entering the arena, a young girl walked over with a glass of red wine. She looked Nan Lianxue up and down, and then glanced at Nan Ruoshui.

Then she smiled slightly and handed out the red wine glass to Nan Ruoshui.

"Long time no see, Miss Nan Ruoshui."

"Ah."

Nan Ruoshui just nodded lightly, didn't even take the wine glass, then led Nan Lianxue and wanted to follow the maid towards the second floor.

The smile froze on the young lady's face.

"With all due respect, Miss Nan Ruoshui, even if you are the eldest lady of the Nan family, at such a banquet, your dress...is probably inappropriate?"

She came forward, with a hint of sarcasm and arrogance in her voice.

She took it for granted, with a touch of arrogance in her elegant demeanor, like... no, it should be said that she is a pampered young lady.

You have to ask why she would take it for granted to make things difficult for Nan Ruoshui?

Maybe it's just because she has been compared by others for a long time, but Nan Ruoshui didn't pay attention to her, or even anyone of her generation.

This kind of innate conceit and self-confidence made these young girls discouraged, but at the same time, the strange psychology of "wanting to prove that I am better than her" arose uncontrollably in my heart.

But Nan Ruoshui just looked at her indifferently, but there was no interest in his eyes: "What I wear has nothing to do with you. And... who are you?"

Friends at a party?

Nan Ruoshui never cared, she only cared about how to tease her sister so that she could feel more comfortable.

The voice fell.

The girl's face turned blue.

Then she chuckled twice, raised her chin slightly, her voice carried a bit of stubborn arrogance, her eyes no longer looked at Nan Ruoshui, but at Nan Lianxue: "This is the first time I'm at this kind of banquet see you."

The old butler walking beside Nan Lianxue took the lead in answering the lady's question: "Miss Chen, this is the second miss of the Nan family, Miss Nan Lixue."

The information brought by this sentence spread like ripples in all directions.

The second miss of the Nan family hardly appeared in everyone's sight, only when the Chu family got engaged, this second miss unexpectedly beat up the third young master of the Chu family.

For the first time ever, the two daughters of the Nan family attended the banquet at the same time.

This time the banquet...what's the difference?

Grandpa Nan's birthday party...other than that...what else?

Ignore the sight of others.

Nan Lianxue and the others walked up the stairs deep in the hall to the second floor.

It is very different from the lobby on the first floor.

Not far from them was a mahogany round table, and there were only four people there—Father Nan, Su Qing'er's father, the head of the Chu family, and Chu Tianling who was standing not far away.

Nan Lianxue walked over under her father's signal, and stood between Su Qing'er's father and Nan's father.

Father Nan tapped the table with his fingers, then raised his head and stared quietly at Chu Tianling who was not far away:

"I think, this time, we should discuss this issue in a formal setting, even if the engagement has been cancelled."

"What does this mean, Mr. Nan?"

The head of the Chu family forced a smile, clasping his hands uneasily.

"I think you should know what your son is doing, Patriarch Chu." Father Nan narrowed his eyes slightly, glanced at Nan Lianxue at the side, and then turned his head again.

"Chu Tianling, what did you do after the engagement was canceled a month ago."

The faint inquiry carried a sense of majesty that could not be quibbled.

Chu Tianling who was standing opposite trembled slightly, and dared not speak after lowering his head.

"I don't know what I'm referring to? Well, let me give you a hint. There are two employees in the campsite, one tall and one thin."

When Chu Tianling heard this, cold sweat broke out on his forehead. He thought that the Nan family had been silent for so long because they didn't intend to settle accounts with him... Now it seems——

They wanted him to have nothing.

Fame, status, money.

Ah......

Chapter 95 Cocoon Stripping

"Miss, the coffee you want."

"Well, thank you."

Nan Lianxue and her sister sat on the round table behind her father, propped her head up, and looked at her father silently.

Fingers fiddled with the small bottle on the table, a faint breath diffused.

A faint floral fragrance, accompanied by a faint fragrance.

The elder sister beside her turned her head to look at Nan Lianxue, but found that she was just playing with a glass bottle with a strange shape and didn't care about it.

"Mantra potion remaining usage times: 1/3."

Nan Lianxue smiled slightly when she heard the words, then quietly picked up the coffee cup, and gently blew it a few times until the coffee was a little cooler, before slowly taking a sip.

Um... so bitter.
