Chapter 30
The person in the pavilion was obviously keeping an eye on the surroundings, Chang Sui Ning and his servant had just appeared, and he quickly saw them.

The two sides were not too close, and seeing the girl's figure in the distance, the man suddenly grasped the edge of his sleeves, and an unconcealable shock appeared in his eyes.

Although the girl is wearing a power fence, he will never admit it wrong.

Seeing the pair of master and servant coming, the man quickly put away all the strange expressions, walked out of the pavilion quickly, and greeted him with a smile.

The folk customs of Dasheng are relatively civilized, and it is spring. It is not uncommon for young people and girls to go out for spring together. It is not eye-catching for a girl wearing a fence to appear here.

"Miss Chang is here." Zhou Ding raised his hand to salute, with a refined style: "Miss Chang, please—"

Chang Sui Ning nodded slightly and walked towards the pavilion.

After entering the pavilion, she casually pulled up the gauze covering her face and put it on the edge of the veiled hat.

The young girl's skin is as thick as fat, her lips are not pimple but vermilion, her almond eyes are clear and clear, at first glance, the lake and mountains outside the pavilion are oppressed to the point of losing color.

Seeing this pretty and harmless face, Zhou Ding's heart skipped a beat a few times, most of the flustered feeling at first dissipated unconsciously.

"I haven't seen Mrs. Chang for many days. I am really worried about it. I only found out that Mrs. Chang was ill when I got a letter yesterday..." He asked with concern, "I wonder if she is better now?"

"It's all right." Chang Suining looked at him then: "Mr. Zhou, do you know how I contracted the disease?"

Zhou Ding was taken aback for a moment, and said blankly: "Chang Niangzi...why did you get sick?"

"On the night of the Shangyuan Festival, I was pushed into the water by the Moon Bridge River. As a result, I fell seriously ill and almost died."

Zhou Ding's expression changed for a while, and he suppressed a bit of shock and anger: "This... how could such a thing happen? Who would act so boldly?"

Chang Suining: "The sky is too dark to see clearly."

Since this person still dared to come to the appointment, it can be seen that he was not the one who did it that night - borrowing someone else's hand, this is very simple and easy to understand.

She continued: "I came here today to ask Mr. Zhou if he also went to the Moon Bridge River that night, and if he has seen any suspicious people?"

There was something unsettled in her words, but Zhou Ding's words quickly gave her the answer: "I was about to apologize to Mrs. Chang for this matter, but I couldn't make it to the appointment on time because of family troubles... When I arrived, I was gone. Mrs. Chang, I just think Mrs. Chang will not be waiting for a long time, so I went back to the mansion first—"

Chang Sui Ning understood.

Therefore, it was indeed he who asked Ah Li out—in such a secret way of inviting him through poetry.

"But who would have thought that such a thing would happen to Mrs. Chang!" Zhou Ding was full of guilt: "It's my fault... If I hadn't invited you, Mrs. Chang would not have suffered such a disaster... Mrs. Chang, it's my fault ?"

Chang Suining nodded: "Weird."

Zhou Ding: "...?"

"...It is also human nature." He quickly adjusted his expression, and bowed deeply to Chang Suining: "I will apologize to Mrs. Chang."

Chang Suining glanced at him.

Really just rely on one mouth.

It was also at this time that she saw several thin calluses on this person's fingertips.

This is a gambler.

This was in the news that Chang Suian brought back last night.

If at first she had some doubts about why a scholar who already had a reputation as a scholar would take the risk to murder the girl from the Hussar General's mansion, then when she learned that the other party had a gambling addiction, the answer to this question came.

Gamblers need money, and need it urgently.

And people who are really infected with gambling addiction are often not human beings.

Didn't hear the expected response, and the person who maintained the salute added another sentence: "Chang Niangzi wants to beat or scold, Zhou Ding will never say anything else."

Chang Suining said calmly: "No need."

There is no need to beat and scold, just pay with your life.

Only then did Zhou Ding heave a sigh of relief in his heart, and straightened up: "Speaking of which, Mrs. Chang is so pure and kind, and she has never made enemies with anyone. Why did such a disaster happen? Then who is it that pushed Mrs. Chang into the water? Your residence Have you found any clues? If there is anything I can help you with, I hope Madam Chang will show you."

Chang Suining pretended not to hear his temptation: "Although I was rescued after falling into the water, I woke up after being in a coma for several days. The crowds at the Shangyuan Lantern Festival were chaotic, and nothing has been found yet."

As for whether there was anything he could do to help—that would be great.

Zhou Ding frowned with a complex expression: "The person who did the trick is so vicious, if we can't find out the truth, it will be really disturbing."

As he said that, his expression suddenly became a little moved: "Ms. Chang is so frightened, and the thief has not been caught yet, so she shouldn't take the risk of going out to meet you..."

Chang Suining: "..."

How did it get here?
"Today, besides wanting to ask Zhou Langjun about the night of the Shangyuan Festival, I also came here for another matter."

Zhou Ding: "I don't know what Mrs. Chang is referring to?"

"I heard Zhou Langjun got engaged a few days ago." Chang Suining asked quietly, "Why didn't you tell me about such a happy event?"

This is the second news worth mentioning that Chang Suian brought back last night.

Zhou Ding's complexion changed a few times, his eyes were a little flustered, but there was also a bit of inexplicable hope.

He was thinking-

No wonder Mrs. Chang treated him rather indifferently today, but she clearly never suspected him...

It turned out to be jealous!
This is obviously playing with him a little bit, right?
He had secretly tested the other party's intentions before, but she never responded. She only focused on talking about poetry and prose with him. He already thought that she had no intention of treating him, and since there was no future at all, he was able to ruthlessly agree. that man...

Now it seems that she did not treat him unintentionally.

She just hadn't realized it before, and didn't know what it means to like someone... Until now, when she heard that he was engaged, she finally realized her own intentions!
Before he recovered from his serious illness, he came to question him about his engagement... She was afraid that she loved him so badly!

Thinking about it, she has a sensitive and withdrawn personality, and rarely has contact with outsiders. She met him when she was just in [-]. She thought that he would have a reputation as a scholar at a young age. Being tempted is also human nature and should be taken for granted.

Zhou Ding's heart suddenly became hot, but his face was struggling with pain, and his eyes were full of unblessed affection——

Chang Suining: "..."

Frankly speaking, this person has a slightly three-point appearance, but because of this, he desperately tried to make this three-point look like an eight-point appearance, but instead completely lost the original three-point—it is also in another sense The loss outweighs the gain.

Not only that, he also took two steps closer to Chang Suining.

Chang Suining clenched his fingers, desperately suppressing the urge to throw this person over his shoulder and kick him into the lake.

Zhou Ding had already opened his mouth to "explain" and said: "The engagement with her was not out of love between a man and a woman, but because both of her parents died, and only her and a young brother were left unattended at home. The two families were old friends, and I couldn't bear to see her." Her siblings have no one to rely on, so they agreed..."

Chang Sui Ning came to a sudden: "Eat Juehu?"

"...?!" Zhou Ding looked at her incredulously: "...Chang, why does Miss Chang miss me so much?"
