Chapter 81
Seeing that the woman did not refute, Bai Jiang's body trembled suddenly, and his voice lost its usual calmness and became a little sharp, "Why?"

"Because I like him, that's enough." The woman lowered her eyes, her voice was less cold, like sake, the mouth was gentle and lingering.

If you look carefully, you can see that the fundus under the eyelashes is as indifferent as ever.

It's a pity that the man in front of him was already confused because of her words.

After leaving this sentence, Su Chengrui turned and left the woodshed.

Bai Jiang looked at the back of the woman leaving resolutely, and couldn't help but burst into tears, as if his strength had been taken away in an instant, he slumped to the ground.

Because he was carefully cultivated by his master's husband since he was a child, he has always been a bit temperamental. Not to mention rich and powerful, he just wants to find a wife who loves him and loves him in this life. , he never paid attention to it.

But I don't know when it started.

He found that his gaze always followed her involuntarily, focusing on everything about her.

Perhaps it was because of the drastic change in her temperament after hearing the servants say that she was injured, or because she no longer looked frivolously at him, or because she rescued herself and took the initiative to rescue him that day.

Bai Jiang kept reminding himself that Su Mu was not his lover, but no matter how he restrained himself, he couldn't control the thought of getting close to her.

Seeing that she was willing to be punished in order to protect that oiran man, when the stick hit her and he gave her medicine, her heart ached along with it.

The man sat on the ground and wept continuously.

Su Chengrui was just about to go back to the yard when he ran into someone who hurried to say that a woman surnamed Zhang was looking for her.

Zhang Liu?

It's so late, what is she doing here?Could it be that something happened in the shop?

Su Chengrui thought for a while, and asked someone to take her to the side hall to wait.As soon as she arrived at the side hall, Zhang Liu rushed up to greet her as soon as she saw her, "It's great to see you."

"what happened?"

"There is something wrong with the jade material that Mr. Yingyue chose for jewelry during the day." Zhang Liu said, putting the things in his hand on the table, and unwrapping the cloth wrapped on it.

A bracelet and a carved hairpin were outlined with a pen on the purple and white jade.Among them, the part of the bracelet was cut, but there was a dark pattern about the size of a fingernail in the middle, and there were faint black dots in the middle, which directly affected the beauty of the whole piece of material.

Su Chengrui couldn't help frowning, picked up the jade and looked at it carefully for a moment.

Zhang Liu had a bitter face, "Just when everything started to open at night, I suddenly found that there was an extra piece in the middle. Mr. Yingyue has already paid the deposit, if he finds out, he will probably return it."

This was the first business she received in the shop, and it was a big business, she was not willing to just let it be so dirty.

Su Chengrui asked, "Are there any other jade materials in the store?"

"Yes, there is, but there is only such a piece of material left in Ziyu, and he didn't like the other Young Master Yingyue."

Su Chengrui stared at the jade in his hand and pondered for a while, then said to her, "How about this, put the jade here so I can think about it, and tomorrow I will bring my things to the store to find you."

"That's fine."

Su Chengrui asked her to go back first, planning to redesign a new pattern for Chuanmo at night and send it to Jiang Yingyue to see if he agreed with the newly revised plan.

After Zhang Liu left, she wrapped the jade, and when she passed the garden, she heard a commotion from the other side of the pond, mixed with the exclamation of the servants.

"What's going on?" Su Chengrui asked with a frown.

The servant carrying the lantern poked his head and looked, "Miss, it seems that someone fell into the water ahead."

Su Chengrui looked for the sound and walked towards that place, and sure enough, he saw a thumping figure in the pond. The clothes on that person looked familiar.

When Su Chengrui arrived, three or five servants gathered around the bank to help drag the man out of the water.

The woman's bundled hair was wet and loose and drooped on her shoulders, revealing her delicate face underneath.Seeing her face clearly, Su Chengrui couldn't help but frowned and said, "Zhang Liu? Didn't you leave? Why did you fall into the water?"

"Miss Su, I..."

Just as Zhang Liu was about to speak, a goose-yellow figure hurriedly came to her, "Girl, are you alright?"

Bai Jiang was concerned about Zhang Liu's situation with an anxious expression on his face.

"It's all right, my lord, I got your belt for you." Zhang Liu shook his head, wiped the water off his face, and handed him the belt in his hand with a smile.

Bai Jiang was stunned, but he didn't reach out to take it. He just stared at the belt and said sadly, "It's just a belt. If you lose it, you lose it. There's no reason to let the girl take such risks."

"This belt is very beautiful. The person who made it must have spent a lot of effort. It would be a pity to just throw it away."

Zhang Liu was about to stuff the belt into his hand when Zhang Liu said that, when Bai Jiang's fingers touched the cold wetness, he immediately withdrew his hand as if shocked, and said quickly, "Since the girl is fine and the slave has something else to do, I will take my leave first."

Bai Jiang turned around and saw Su Chengrui behind him, a look of panic flashed across his face, he gave a hurried salute and then fled away.

Su Chengrui looked down, and saw that the belt was not the one he gave back to Bai Jiang before?

Seeing this, I can roughly guess what happened in my heart.She looked at the already dark night, and said to Zhang Liu, "It's getting late, you can stay in the mansion tonight."

Zhang Liu was wringing the water from the hem of his clothes, he was startled when he heard this, "Miss, how did this happen?"

"It's okay, there's already a curfew at this hour, and I don't worry about you leaving the city alone."

Zhang Liu thought about it, Xu felt that it was a bit uncomfortable to walk back with this wet mess, so she didn't insist anymore, besides... She tightened the belt in her hand, nodded and agreed.

Zhang Liu said with a smile, "Okay! The young lady is rich and powerful, so I won't be polite if I'm young!"

Su Chengrui waved with a smile, and asked the servants to take her to the East Lake Courtyard to arrange a room to live in, and prepared hot water and clean clothes for her to wash and change.

Su Chengrui simply researched Ziyu's modification plan with her, and after discussing it, he came out of the house and happened to meet Bai Jiang on the corridor.

"Miss."

Holding the tray, Bai Jiang gave her a slight salute, probably because of his own incident that caused Zhang Liu to fall into the water just now, and was afraid of being blamed by Su Chengrui again, so his face was slightly disturbed.

Su Chengrui nodded, and looked up at the soup cup he was holding.

Catching her gaze, Bai Jiang hurriedly said, "I'm afraid that the girl caught a cold just now, so I specially made ginger soup to dispel the cold."

Su Chengrui waved his hand, and Bai Xing saluted again and walked forward.

Alas, this rich family is really different.

Even the guest rooms are so grand and exquisite.

After grooming, Zhang Liu wiped her wet hair with a towel, looked at the gorgeous furnishings in the room, and secretly felt emotional.

There was a sudden knock on the door.

She thought it was Su Chengrui who turned back and dropped something, so she walked quickly to open the door without thinking too much.After seeing the man standing outside the door like an orchid, she looked a little surprised, "It's you."

Just as Bai Jiang was about to speak, he turned his eyes away in a panic as if his eyes were being scalded.

Only then did Zhang Liu remember that he had arrived in a hurry just now and didn't even wear an outer shirt, only a thin layer of middle coat on his body.

"Excuse me, excuse me."

Zhang Liu looked embarrassed and hurried into the house, took the outer shirt and put it on, and then invited someone into the house.

Bai Jiangqing coughed twice, and then put the soup on the table, "I'm sorry tonight, Miss Zhang, to help, I specially cooked ginger soup for the girl to go to the cold."
