Chapter 250 The Untamed 12
Originally, I thought that sending out the copied book was just a casual remark by Lan Qiren, but who knew that Lan Zhan would come to find him in person early the next morning. Jiang Xinxin's handsome face suddenly wrinkled into a bitter gourd, and Wei Ying also became a little listless.
Jin Zixuan at least followed them and said a few words, saying that he would save the food for them at noon and wait for them to go back and eat together, and that he would not go to Jiang Yanli and Jiang Erya to complain.
This guy Nie Huaisang, he actually didn't dare to step forward at all when he saw Lan Zhan was there!
Everyone despised Nie Huaisang, but Nie Huaisang still felt very aggrieved. It would be fine if he were asked to plead for Jiang Xinxin and Wei Ying in front of Lan Huan, but the person in front of him happened to be Lan Huan's younger brother Lan Zhan, the unkind Han Guangjun. He really could do nothing!
The Lan family had a large collection of books, but Jiang Xinxin lost interest after taking a casual look. She liked the magnolia flowers outside the window more. She drew a sketch of Wei Ying on the spur of the moment and sent it to Wei Ying while Lan Zhan was not paying attention.
Wei Ying looked at Lan Zhan who was standing beside him with a serious expression, and simply drew a small portrait of Lan Zhan, but with a sense of humor he added a magnolia flower on the portrait's temples.
Jiang Xinxin and Wei Ying were laughing together. Lan Zhan had noticed the movement here a long time ago, but he didn't take care of it at the first time. When he finished copying a page of the book, he looked up and saw Wei Ying and Jiang Xinxin's eyes constantly glancing at him. He knew without thinking that the little actions of these two people in private must be related to him.
Wei Ying saw Lan Zhan staring at him, so he took Lan Zhan’s portrait and walked over to him, “Lan Zhan, look, I drew your portrait!”
Lan Zhan was full of doubts, he didn't think Wei Ying was really kind. Sure enough, after taking it and looking at it, he found that the portrait was indeed well-made. Although it was just a simple outline, his expression and temperament were captured very accurately. If it weren't for the magnolia flower behind his ear, he would have gladly accepted it.
Lan Zhan’s look did make Wei Ying flinch, but he was thick-skinned and took the initiative to move closer and said, “Brother Wangji, do you think my painting skills are pretty good?”
Jiang Xinxin also looked at Wei Ying and Lan Zhan with a smile. Lan Zhan's handsome face turned red with anger, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Wei Wuxian!"
Seeing that Lan Zhan was really angry, Jiang Xinxin hurried forward to comfort him: "Hey, Brother Ji, this magnolia is not an improper flower. Ah Xian is just feeling something when he is looking at the white magnolia outside the window."
Wei Ying also defended himself: "Yes, yes, I just saw that you were too serious on weekdays, so I wanted to think of a way to make you relax."
"Young man, people should always relax in moderation. If you keep tensing up, you will easily hurt others and yourself."
Having said that, Wei Ying simply sat down on Lan Zhan's desk and patted Lan Zhan's shoulder in a condescending manner, which made Lan Zhan so angry that he broke the brush in his hand.
Jiang Xinxin quickly pulled Wei Ying away from this Shura scene, "Hey Lan Wangji, Axian and I will sit back and continue copying books. You can clean up the things on your desk yourself."
In the days that followed, Jiang Xinxin didn't get involved in anything related to Lan Zhan, but Wei Ying couldn't help teasing Lan Zhan, and he liked to see Lan Zhan fail.
Jiang Xinxin understood Wei Ying's bad taste. She watched coldly from the sidelines and found that Lan Zhan treated Wei Ying differently.
More than a month later, Jiang Xinxin and Wei Ying finally received good news: Lan Qiren went out to attend a literary discussion meeting!
As soon as Lan Qiren left, Jiang Xinxin and Wei Ying never went to the library again. Lan Huan and Lan Zhan had no other reaction after knowing this, which showed that Lan Qiren had made arrangements before he left and let them off.
As soon as Jiang Xinxin and Wei Ying, who had been trapped for more than a month, were released, they caused chaos in the Cloud Recesses. Not only did the fish in the creek at the back mountain suffer, but even the rabbits and pheasants in the mountains were eaten by them. The rules kept breaking, and the two were forced to copy thicker and thicker house rules as punishment, but it still couldn't stop them from playing pranks everywhere.
As for Lan Zhan, Jiang Xinxin looked at him coldly. He was indeed very concerned about Wei Ying. Wherever Wei Ying appeared, he would soon appear as well, which was similar to the satellite positioning in later generations.
On this day, Jiang Xinxin was making a fire by the stream. With great difficulty, Jiang Yanli and Jiang Erya came to the back mountain to play together. He also secretly bribed the purchasing manager and brought up a lot of meat from the foot of the mountain. Now he was preparing to barbecue and eat hot pot, and was waiting for Wei Ying and Nie Huaisang to catch fish and make the soup base.
Nie Huaisang had been trained by Wei Ying for so many days, even if he was really a fool, he should have become wise. What's more, Nie Huaisang himself was very smart and had good hands-on skills, but his talent was a little lacking. Also, because he suddenly changed to swordsmanship, his cultivation could not keep up.
After a while, Nie Huaisang came running over excitedly, carrying two fish, one big and one small, and Wei Ying came running over with a basket of river shrimps.
The two of them were shouting and showing their courtesy in front of Jiang Yanli, boasting about themselves at the same time. Jiang Xinxin turned her head inadvertently and found that Wen Qing was holding something like a needle and poking at a stone wall above.
Jiang Xinxin motioned for everyone to look up. Wei Ying also saw Wen Qing's probing clearly and couldn't help but sigh, "The Wen siblings seem to be quite well behaved, especially Wen Ning, who is really well behaved and very shy. Yesterday I saw Wen Ning practicing archery alone by the river."
Jiang Erya glared at Wei Ying in anger, "How dare you bring up what happened yesterday! If you hadn't startled Wen Ning by suddenly speaking, Wen Ning wouldn't have missed his target with his arrow and almost injured Senior Sister!"
Jin Zixuan immediately held Jiang Yanli's hand tightly, "Ah Li was almost injured yesterday?! Ah Li, you must be frightened. Sit down quickly. Let Ah Xian handle the matter at hand. Just consider it as his apology to you."
Jiang Yanli was speechless, but this time she chose to stand on the side of her fiancé Jin Zixuan, which made Wei Ying feel helpless. But because he was the culprit, he had to take over the work in Jiang Yanli's hands. He deeply hated himself for being careless and letting Jin Zixuan take advantage of him.
The voices here were quite loud, and Wen Qing walked down quickly, but when Jiang Erya invited her to come over to eat something, she refused.
No one took her refusal seriously, as it was just a polite gesture after all. However, Wei Ying felt that he must tell Lan Huan or Lan Zhan about Wen Qing's attempt on the Cloud Recesses.
"Zewu Jun has already succeeded the position of the Lan clan leader. He can't be unaware of Wen Qing's little tricks. But we always see Wen Qing when we hang out in the back mountain. It's reasonable for us to tell them."
Jiang Xinxin felt that Wei Ying said a lot, and asked him to tell Lan Huan about Wen Qing. As expected, Lan Huan had known about Wen Qing's little actions for a long time, and even the Wen family's owl was under their surveillance. Wei Ying was relieved and began to worry about Jiang family's affairs.
