Chapter 98 Jealousy
Zuo Xiangning's heart moved. The person covering her mouth was actually Ling Xiao.

"Aunt Zuo said, I...if I kill that child, she will kill me," the little girl sobbed in a low voice, "No matter who I listen to, I will never survive. You Take me and run away quickly..."

Zuo Xiangning's eyes widened and she looked back at the man behind her.

The man's other big hand wrapped around her waist.

"Stop talking." Hot breath sprayed against her ears.

Zuo Xiangning withdrew her gaze and calmly removed her palm from her mouth.

"I'll be waiting for you at the west corner gate." A man's voice sounded, "I have to go to the front yard now. It will be bad if someone finds me soon."

"Then you must remember to come to me." The woman said tremblingly, "If you don't come, I will be dead."

"Don't worry, I will definitely be there." The man said, "Don't bring too many things."

"I know, I'll go back and clean up now."

There were footsteps on the other side of the flower wall.

Ling Xiao hugged Zuo Xiangning and hid behind a century-old tree.

After everyone had gone away, Ling Xiao let go of Zuo Xiangning in his arms.

Zuo Xiangning took two steps to the side, put on the cap of her cloak, and left without looking back.

"Xiang Ning!" The man behind her called her.

Zuo Xiangning turned back.

Ling Xiao's dark eyes looked at the slim woman in front of him, and said in a deep voice: "Don't tell anyone what you heard today."

Zuo Xiangning pursed her lips and stood for a while, realizing that he had nothing else to say, so she turned around and walked towards the way she came.

A woman's coquettish voice came from behind, "Ling Xiao, didn't you say you would warm the stove for me? Why haven't you gone yet?"

"I'll go now." There was a smile in Ling Xiao's voice, "You wait in the Nuan Pavilion first."

Zuo Xiangning quickened her pace again and left the back garden.

The woman's voice just now should be the woman I saw in the restaurant before. Maybe she is Mrs. Hou's niece, right?

She blinked and looked up to see Gu Zhiqing standing under the steps of the flower hall, looking at her with a smile.

Zuo Xiangning stopped and watched Gu Zhiqing walking towards her.

She wanted to hide, but it was too late.

"It's such a cold day, where have you been?" Gu Zhiqing walked up to her and stretched out one hand in front of her. In his hand lay a heater with a cloisonné enamel pattern of flowers and birds. With the other hand, he held up the cloak that was about to fall off. She pulled the hat forward and said, "Come inside quickly, it's too cold outside."

Zuo Xiangning looked at the heater in his hand, quietly lost in thought.

"What's wrong?" Gu Zhiqing bent slightly and asked with concern, "Is it frozen?"

Zuo Xiangning raised her watery eyes and looked at the man close at hand.

The worry and concern in his eyes were so obvious, just like when that man looked at him.

She thought that man really liked her, but what about this man?

Does he also like himself?

He likes himself, why would he hurt himself so much?
She suddenly felt a little confused. After she was reborn, she found that many people and things in her previous life were different from what she thought. She couldn't tell what was true and what was false?
"Xiang Ning?" Gu Zhiqing looked at the woman's long, curled eyelashes, and his voice became softer, "Why don't you speak?"

"Mr. Gu and Miss Zuo Si are really in great spirits." A cold laugh suddenly came from behind Zuo Xiangning, "It's such a cold day, but you're still in the mood to chat outside."

"Prince?" Gu Zhiqing straightened up and greeted Ling Xiao, who was a few steps away, with a smile.Zuo Xiangning's eyelashes trembled, and she reached out and took the heater from Gu Zhiqing's hand, "Thank you for your concern. I'm feeling cold."

"It's too cold outside." Gu Zhiqing said to her gently: "Come in quickly and don't forget to drink some hot tea."

"Don't catch a cold." Zuo Xiangning smiled at him, turned around and bowed to Ling Xiao, and entered the flower hall.

This was the first time that Gu Zhiqing saw Zuo Xiangning smiling at him, blooming like an epiphyllum, which almost made him dizzy.

"Master Gu, is something good coming soon?"

"I really wanted to, but the Zuo family said we have to wait." Gu Zhiqing looked away, turned around and said with a smile: "But she is still young, so I am not in a hurry."

"Mr. Min Ge is choosing a son-in-law for his eldest granddaughter these days. I heard that Mr. Min Ge's granddaughter is a rare talent. She is well-known in Baishan Academy." Ling Xiao asked with a smile: "Mr. Min Ge He mentioned you many times in front of me, obviously he appreciates you very much."

Gu Zhiqing's heart moved slightly.

But he glanced in the direction of the flower hall, turned back and said with a smile: "I am in love with the fourth girl of the Zuo family, and I will wait for her."

Ling Xiao smiled and said, "I'll go in first."

Gu Zhiqing looked at Ling Xiao's back, feeling secretly undecided.

Old Min Ge's granddaughter has always been his first choice to marry.

No matter whether the King of Qi gains power or the King of Chu gains power, as long as Mr. Min Ge doesn't take sides easily, he will remain invincible.

Although the Zuo family seems to be very popular, if they can't stand in a good team, it will most likely bring disaster.

But when he thought of Zuo Xiangning's pretty little face, Gu Zhiqing's vacillation just now became firm again.

A man cannot stand without trust. If he changes his mind over and over again, what will others say?
What's more, he doesn't want to change it.

Zuo Xiangning returned to the flower hall, and Pan Cui walked to her side quietly, helped her take off her cloak, and whispered: "That person is Mu Junyi, the new top scholar."

Zuo Xiangning nodded and sat next to Zuo Xiangyu.

"Where have you been?" Zuo Xiangyu glared at her dissatisfied, "I asked Yutao to go to the second sister to ask, and she said you had left long ago."

"I went to the rockery for a while," Zuo Xiangning looked at Zuo Xiangyu, raised her eyebrows and whispered softly: "I vaguely saw the color of the third sister's clothes at the rockery. I thought it was the third sister, but I ran over, But I saw a man standing there, which shocked me."

"Who did you see?" Zuo Xiangyu asked nervously.

"I don't know him, I just remember that he was wearing sapphire blue clothes," Zuo Xiangning said with a smile, "I didn't dare to say anything, so I ran back."

"He didn't talk to you either?" Zuo Xiangyu asked.

"No." Zuo Xiangning asked with a smile: "Huh? Why did the third sister ask so carefully? Do you know who that person is?"

"I didn't even see it, how could I know?" Zuo Xiangyu snorted lightly and said, "You are the only one who talks a lot."

Zuo Xiangning glanced at him, smiled, and said no more.

Zuo Xiangyu's vision is really getting higher and higher, from being the top pick to the top pick.

Ling Xiao had said before that Mu Junyi was good, but he didn't know if he could match Zhongzuo Xiangyu.

"I'm telling you, don't talk nonsense when you go back!" Zuo Xiangyu turned around and said worriedly.

"Nothing happened, what did you want me to say?" Zuo Xiangning asked with a smile: "Third sister, I have always been curious about one thing, is there anyone important in your heart? After so many years, I haven’t even seen whether you have ever trusted anyone else.”

"I..." Zuo Xiangyu herself was a little confused.

She really didn't seem to believe anyone.
