Chapter 5 Becoming Friends
Zuo Xiangning raised her head and listened to the movement outside.

"Why is she sleeping at this hour?" Zuo Xiangyu's voice was crisp, with a hint of meanness: "You cheap maids are always good at fooling people!"

Pan Xia and Pan Cui were girls who grew up with me. She was usually reluctant to say harsh words, so why should she, Zuo Xiangyu, scold her?
When Zuo Xiangning thought about how she regarded Zuo Xiangyu as a good sister in her previous life, she wanted to give herself a slap in the face.

Zuo Xiangning sat up and was about to say something to Zuo Xiangyu when she heard the sound of hairpin rings clinking and entered the room.

Zuo Xiangyu, who was wearing a water-red gown embroidered with peach petals, twisted her slender waist and walked in gracefully.

"Fourth sister, what happened today?" Zuo Xiangyu quickly walked to the bedside, held Zuo Xiangning's hand affectionately, frowned and asked, "I obviously saw you fall into the lake, Why did you follow your eldest sister to Prince Chu’s Mansion again?”

Zuo Xiangning withdrew her hand and said lukewarmly: "If I don't follow the eldest sister, will I drown in the second sister's Prince Qi's Mansion?"

"What did my sister say? Why did you say it as if someone wanted to harm you?" Zuo Xiangyu was stunned and said in a strange way: "What kind of disrespectful words did the eldest sister say to you again?"

"It doesn't matter what the eldest sister said, but how come the third sister doesn't seem to be worried about my sister's health, but seems to be worried about something else?" Zuo Xiangning stared into Zuo Xiangyu's eyes and said with a smile, "Third sister Isn't my sister worried that I won't be able to deal with the second young master of the Gu family because I wasn't rescued by him? Or is she worried that I won't be able to deal with anyone else? "

Zuo Xiangyu, who was poked at the center of things, was startled, stood up with an ugly face, pointed at Zuo Xiangning and said: "What do you mean? I'm angry because of you, but instead of comforting me, you say Who were you instigating those weird and bloody words?"

"My sister just asked me a joke, why did the third sister get so angry?" Zuo Xiangning leaned on the pillow and looked at her with a smile, "My sister is back safely, my sister should be happy to ask her It's serious to have a happy meal, why are you so angry and angry?"

Zuo Xiangyu looked at Zuo Xiangning, who was usually obedient and obedient, suddenly became so sharp-tongued, and felt a little strange in her heart.

She originally thought that what happened today was a bit strange, but now that she saw Zuo Xiangning's presence, she couldn't help but be afraid that something would happen. She didn't bother to pretend with Zuo Xiangning anymore, so she just said a few words and left.

"Since my sister is fine, let's rest early."

Zuo Xiangning looked at Zuo Xiangyu's panicked back and pursed her lower lip.

Zuo Xiangyu, a brainless person, is in a hurry to go back and ask Aunt Liu for advice?Or are you in a hurry to send a message to your second sister Zuo Xiangyun?

Zuo Xiangning couldn't figure it out in her heart. She was obviously very kind to Aunt Liu and her daughter, but why did they turn around and try to harm her?
Although she, Zuo Xiangyun and Zuo Xiangyu were not from the same mother, they were also born from the same father. Their bones were broken but their tendons were still connected. How could they do this to her?
After a while, rapid and heavy footsteps came from the yard again.

Zuo Xiangning's face lit up with joy, and she hurriedly put on her shoes and went out to greet him.

Her third brother Zuo Zimo is here!

Zuo Zimo ran in from outside with sweat on his head.

"Why did you fall into the water?" Zuo Zimo looked at Zuo Xiangning, whose eyes were reddish, in panic, "How are you doing now? Why do you look so ugly?"

Zuo Xiangning's tears instantly overflowed from her eyes.

Her third brother Zuo Zimo is two years older than her. He is just seventeen this year. He is a head taller than her, fat and strong, as big as a hill.

But when she thought of Zuo Zimo becoming like a little old man, skinny as a stick, with a sad face, running around for her... She felt heartbroken, her sore eyes were sore and astringent, and she couldn't stop her tears even if she wanted to.

Zuo Zimo's eyebrows were tightly knitted into the character "Chuan", and he asked repeatedly: "Don't just keep crying. Why don't you feel uncomfortable? Tell me instead! Have you called the doctor? What did the doctor say?" "Third brother, I It's okay." Zuo Xiangning wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, then took a new handkerchief and handed it to Zuo Zimo, smiling and saying: "Why are you running? Your head is covered with sweat."

Zuo Zimo looked at Zuo Xiangning suspiciously, took the handkerchief and wiped his face: "Why did you say I ran away? I just heard someone said you fell into the lake, and it almost scared me to death!"

"It's my sister's fault. I apologize to you."

Zuo Xiangning smiled and bent her knees to salute him, but he held up her arms and pulled her up, "Hurry up, go back to bed and lie down, and tell me what's going on?"

Zuo Xiangning poured a cup of tea for Zuo Zimo and said with a smile: "I did fall into the lake today, but I was rescued by my eldest sister and was not injured. I haven't told my mother about this yet."

"Third brother, don't say anything yet, lest mother worry."

"Do you think you can hide it from your mother?" Zuo Zimo drank a cup of tea and said, "I will tell the people at the second door later that if you feel uncomfortable, ask someone to find me."

"Why are we looking for you? Do you know how to treat a doctor?" Zuo Xiangning said with a joking smile: "I'll be fine if I take a nap, don't worry."

"I'm in the front yard. It can be faster to find a doctor." Zuo Zimo said worriedly: "If you feel uncomfortable in any way, don't bear it."

Zuo Zimo was about to leave in a hurry, but Zuo Xiangning stopped him, "Third brother——"

"What's wrong?" Zuo Zimo turned his head.

Zuo Xiangning had a lot to say in her heart, but looking at Zuo Zimo, who looked childish and young, she suppressed it all.

"I just feel that Third Brother is very good to me, but I am not good to Third Brother at all." Zuo Xiangning's eyes turned red again.

"If you know your mistakes and can correct them, there is no greater good." Zuo Zimo smiled and ruffled her hair.

"Third brother!" Zuo Xiangning opened his hand in a coquettish manner, the corners of her mouth curled up slightly, and her big watery eyes slowly curved into crescent moons, "I'll ask Mama Cai to make some fresh dumplings later, do you want to stay with me?" Dinner?"

"I still have friends waiting there. You can have the dumplings delivered to me in the front yard, and I'll go back and eat them." Zuo Zimo saw that Zuo Xiangning's face still looked a little uncomfortable, and said warmly: "You should also go to bed early. I’ll see you again tomorrow morning.”

"Which of your friends is here? Why didn't I know when you had friends?"

"You really look down on people. Why can't you have friends as a brother?" Zuo Zimo said with some pride: "My friend is the last year's Tan Hua Lang, the eldest son of the Gu family, Gu Zhiqing..."

Gu Zhiqing?
Zuo Xiangning's jaw almost dropped in surprise.

When did her third brother become Gu Zhiqing's friend?
Why doesn't she know?
Gu Zhiqing left Prince Qi's Mansion and came to tell Zuo Zimo that he fell into the water. What was he planning?
It seems that I have never met him in this life, why would he focus on me?

Zuo Xiangning's mind suddenly became a mess, and she couldn't find any clue...
