Chapter 477 I Treat You as a Brother

"Xu Lan?!"

When Lin Jiangnian opened the door, he saw that the person standing outside the room was Xu Lan.

"Why are you here?"

Lin Jiangnian looked up and down at Xu Lan at the door.

The night had just darkened, and the light at the door of the room was a little dim. Xu Lan was wearing a long gauze dress with a front opening. The skirt was very long, and the hem was not like the traditional women's clothes.

Clean and neat, and with a bit of freshness.

As if she had just taken a bath, her black hair was scattered, and there was a little moisture, and there was a faint fragrance in the air.

In addition, as the eldest daughter of the Xu family, she rarely went out on weekdays, and her skin was quite white, as white as soft jade.

At this moment, she was standing at the door, looking a little nervous, with her head slightly lowered, and did not look at Lin Jiangnian.

"What's the matter?"

Lin Jiangnian asked curiously, why did Xu Lan come to him at this time?

"Hmm..."

Xu Lan's voice was very light. She quietly looked up at Lin Jiangnian, as if she saw something, and was startled: "You, are you going out?"

"I guess so."

"You, where are you going?" Xu Lan was slightly startled.

"Nothing!"

Lin Jiangnian wanted to find Li Piaomiao, but Xu Lan suddenly came to him, and he didn't explain too much: "What do you want to find me for?"

Seemingly hearing the perfunctory tone in Lin Jiangnian's tone, Xu Lan said faintly: "Nothing, can't I come to you?"

This tone...

Lin Jiangnian looked at Xu Lan in front of him and soon saw some clues.

This girl is not in a good state!

It seems that there is something behind her words?

Look at her appearance and demeanor...a bit strange!

In the past, Xu Lan always had a vigorous momentum, both in character and image. But since Lin Jiangnian made constructive suggestions later, Xu Lan has obviously changed a lot.

Except for some innate conditions that cannot be changed for the time being, in other aspects, this Miss Xu is indeed becoming more and more like a lady from a noble family.

No flaws can be found in her appearance and temperament.

After all, she is from a famous family and has a solid foundation. No matter how bad she is, she can't be that bad.

"Yes, of course!"

Lin Jiangnian remembered something and looked at her again: "Come in and talk?"

"Well... OK!"

Hearing this, Xu Lan seemed to be more nervous, and her earlobes covered by her black hair turned slightly red. She lowered her head and walked into the room carefully.

Then.

"Bang!"

The door of the room was closed.

At the same time.

Outside the courtyard, not far away.

A figure was hiding quietly in the corner. When she saw Xu Lan, who was under the eaves not far away, walk into Lin Jiangnian's room, her beautiful eyes suddenly widened.

She spoke angrily.

"Sure enough, there is a problem!"

"..."

In the room.

As the door closed, Xu Lan's heart seemed to be hammered by a big stone, shaking her whole body numb.

Her body was a little hot and a little soft.

Not sure if it was an illusion, she felt that the temperature in the room was a bit high.

As soon as she entered the room, she felt hot and sweaty all over.

In the unventilated room, the air was condensed, and it was vaguely difficult to breathe.

What's going on?

Did I take Chinese medicine?

Xu Lan's mind was full of random thoughts, and her eyes unconsciously fell on the teapot on the table beside her.

... Xiaolu said it was done!

She had already put the medicine in the teapot!

Did this guy drink it?

The table was clean, and that guy hadn't drunk it yet?

When Xu Lan thought of this, her heart almost hung in her throat.

It was the first time she did such a thing, and she was extremely nervous.

Even though she had rehearsed countless times in her mind before, and had imagined countless scenes after Lin Jiangnian drank the medicine. But when she really faced it, she was still shy, and even subconsciously wanted to turn around and run away.

Drugged!

Too despicable!

Although I didn't do it myself, but... I instructed it!

How could she do such a despicable thing?

The inner shame and moral torture made Xu Lan a little overwhelmed, and she wanted to just give up and run away!

But in the end, Xu Lan still held back!

No!

It has come to this point, she must not be timid!

If she is timid this time, how can she have another chance in the future?

Wouldn't it be a waste of opportunities to that vixen named Jinxiu?

The image of the girl named Jinxiu beside the princess appeared in her mind, and Xu Lan's originally hesitant mood quickly calmed down!

The girl named Jinxiu looked kind, but in fact she was definitely not a decent girl. She had an ambiguous relationship with Lin Jiangnian on weekdays...

"Bad woman!"

Xu Lan gritted her teeth, secretly cheered herself up in her heart, took a few deep breaths, and tried to calm herself down.

She must not lose to that 'vixen'!

"Don't be scared, Xu Lan, you can do it!"

"This guy has a strong observation ability, we must not let him find anything unusual!"

Xu Lan quickly adjusted her mood. When she looked up, she saw Lin Jiangnian had returned to the room and was looking at her inexplicably.

"What's wrong with you?"

Lin Jiangnian looked at Xu Lan, whose face was flushed and almost blushed: "Why are you blushing?"

"I, I didn't..."

Xu Lan subconsciously wanted to deny it and quickly covered it up: "It's too hot!"

"Why is the room so hot?"

Xu Lan's eyes dodged and changed the subject: "You, you are not hot?"

"It's okay!"

Lin Jiangnian naturally knew why the room was hot, so he walked to the window and opened it slightly for ventilation.

Xu Lan originally wanted to stop him, but held back before he could say anything.

The evening breeze drifted into the room along the window sill. Lin Jiangnian came to the table and sat down. Seeing Xu Lan still standing in the room stupidly, he glanced at her: "What are you doing standing there stupidly?"

"You, you are just standing there stupidly!"

Xu Lan was originally nervous, but after replying to Lin Jiangnian a few words, she felt that the tension in her heart had dissipated a lot.

She hummed softly, as if to cheer herself up, and also came to the table and looked at Lin Jiangnian with slightly widened eyes.

The corner of his eye fell on the teapot on the table unconsciously, and he continued to think wildly... Is Xiao Lu reliable?

Has she really been drugged?

"Is it that hot?"

Lin Jiangnian looked puzzled when he saw Xu Lan's face turned red and sweat dripping from his forehead.

He picked up the teapot on the table and poured her a cup of tea: "Drink some water."

Xu Lan looked at the tea that Lin Jiangnian pushed in front of her, blushing and not daring to move.

"how?"

"I, I'm not thirsty..."

Xu Lan licked her lips, her tone was stuttering and nervous, and her body was a little stiff, sitting upright.

She doesn't dare to drink!

But after hearing what Xiao Lu said about the efficacy of the medicine...she was afraid!

Lin Jiangnian didn't think much and poured himself a glass.

"Tell me, what do you want from me?"

Lin Jiangnian asked.

"Yeah, nothing's wrong..."

Xu Lan stuttered and spoke, staring at the tea that Lin Jiangnian poured for herself, and her breathing almost stopped.

"Just, I'll come to you and ask, ask about the situation..."

"what?"

"Just, just..."

Xu Lan didn't know what to say, her head was slightly blank at the moment, and all the excuses she had prepared earlier were completely forgotten at the moment, and her heart was beating thumpingly.

"Well, it's actually nothing..."

After stammering for a long time, Xu Lan didn't say anything.

"Are you really okay?"

Lin Jiangnian stared at her with half-squinted eyes.

He had long noticed that something was wrong with Xu Lan. To be precise, something was wrong along the way!

Ever since the last night in the inn, when Xu Lan secretly kissed him at night, Lin Jiangnian had been trying to find a chance to have a good chat with this girl, but the appearance of the eldest princess disrupted Lin Jiangnian's plan.

I have never found a good opportunity to chat with her. Xu Lan came to her door tonight, mysterious and sneaky. Lin Jiangnian vaguely guessed that it was probably related to him.

When asked now, the girl was hesitant and coy again. At this level, she was probably on a par with Liu Su.

Lin Jiangnian knew that if he didn't take the initiative to bring it up, the girl would probably be able to hold it in forever.

Delaying it may not be a good thing!

"If you have nothing to do with me, then I will have something to do with you."

Lin Jiangnian spoke.

"Wha, what's the matter?"

At this moment, Xu Lan's mind was all focused on the undrinkable cup of tea in front of Lin Jiangnian. Her head was dizzy and extremely nervous.

"Of course it's an important thing!"

Lin Jiangnian considered his words in his mind and thought about how to have a good chat with Miss Xu.

Lin Jiangnian had long seen that Xu Lan coveted his body. However, he never made it clear.

But there are some things that should be faced.

There are some things that need to be explained clearly.

While Lin Jiangnian was thinking about it, he picked up the tea on the table and brought it to his mouth.

At the same time, when Xu Lan saw Lin Jiangnian picking up the teacup, his heart almost jumped out of his throat!

Did he drink?

Is he going to drink? !

Are you really going to drink it? !

Then tonight...

Shy, nervous, scared, excited... all kinds of emotions came to her heart, and Xu Lan opened her eyes slightly, almost unblinking.

The hands under her sleeves were clenched into fists, and she was holding on to the corners of her clothes tightly. Her whole body was tense, which was enough to show how nervous she was at the moment.

When Lin Jiangnian put the tea to his mouth, he suddenly stopped.

There was a pause.

Then, he glanced down at the tea in the cup, and then raised his eyes at Xu Lan opposite him.

Xu Lan, who was discovered, immediately looked away in panic.

But out of the corner of his eye, he still stared.

Lin Jiangnian didn't seem to notice anything unusual and took a sip of tea.

Then, put down the tea cup.

Seeing Lin Jiangnian finally drink the tea, Xu Lan's heart suddenly relaxed.

As if the plan had succeeded, cold sweat broke out all over his body. He lowered his head, his mind was blank, still thinking about the exciting scene just now.

It wasn't until a while later that Xu Lan gradually came back to her senses that she realized something was not right.

Why is there no movement? !

She raised her head slightly and met Lin Jiangnian's eyes.

Lin Jiangnian was looking at her quietly, half-smiling.

"You, what do you see me doing?"

Xu Lan felt nervous again, and her tone was still a little guilty and panicked.

"There's something wrong with you!"

Lin Jiangnian looked her up and down: "Something's wrong."

"What, what's wrong?!"

Xu Lan felt that she had never experienced such emotional fluctuations in her life.

So exciting!

So much so that at this moment she felt a little weak and couldn't muster any strength...

Her delicate body was a little wet.

"How long have we known each other?"

Lin Jiangnian suddenly asked.

Xu Lan's eyes were blank. She didn't know why Lin Jiangnian suddenly asked this, but after thinking about it, she subconsciously asked: "More than a year?"

"Yes, we have known each other for more than a year..."

Lin Jiangnian said with emotion: "Speaking of which, I have to thank you for not killing me."

Xu Lan heard that Lin Jiangnian was teasing her, and was a little embarrassed: "Same here!"

Lin Jiangnian sighed and said: "Although we haven't known each other for a long time, it's not short either... You know, I always treat you as a brother!"

"Brother, brother?!"

Xu Lan's expression froze slightly.

"That's right, I always treat you as my best brother!"

Lin Jiangnian nodded: "There are many good relationships in this world, but it's rare to have a relationship like ours!"

"Are you right?"

Xu Lan: "..."

She didn't say anything.

A sense of loss suddenly emerged from her heart.

He, he really treats me as a brother?

No matter what I say, I am a girl after all, he actually treats me as a brother?

No, it's not that insulting!!

"Of course, I treat you as a brother, not to say you are bad. On the contrary, in the eyes of this prince, ordinary people are not worth my attention..."

Lin Jiangnian continued: "I treat you as a brother, which just shows that you are good enough and beautiful enough!"

Xu Lan, who was originally disappointed, was stunned when she heard Lin Jiangnian's nonsense, and subconsciously looked up at him: "Really?!"

"Of course, it's true!"

Lin Jiangnian nodded and said confidently: "Look, are there any ugly people around this prince?"

Xu Lan's head was confused at this time. After being fooled by Lin Jiangnian, it seemed to be true?

It seems that there has never been an ugly person around this guy. The women she has seen are more beautiful than each other.

So, he didn't lie to herself?

Thinking in this way, the feeling of loss that just emerged was dispersed again.

Before Xu Lan came back to her senses, Lin Jiangnian's sighing voice came again.

"What a pity..."

"What a pity?"

Xu Lan asked nervously.

"What a pity, I treat you as my best brother, but you..."

Lin Jiangnian's face was a little more angry, as if he was a little angry and disappointed.

"But you actually want to sleep with me?"

"You betrayed your brother's trust in you!"

Xu Lan: "???"

"..."

Xu Lan didn't react for a while and was stunned.

What sleep?

When will I sleep...

As soon as this thought came up, Xu Lan's delicate body trembled suddenly, as if she realized something, and subconsciously looked at Lin Jiangnian.

Seeing Lin Jiangnian's angry expression, he looked at her with some disappointment and disappointment, and some regret for not being able to make up for his shortcomings.

But that look clearly said...

"I, I don't know what you are talking about..."

Xu Lan's heart skipped a beat, but she still tried to cover it up: "You, what are you talking about..."

"I trust you so much!"

Lin Jiangnian's eyes were very disappointed, but his tone was aggressive: "You betrayed my trust."

As he said that, Lin Jiangnian lowered his head and glanced at the half-cup of tea left in front of him, and then stretched out a finger and pushed the teacup in front of Xu Lan.

It goes without saying!

Nothing was said, but everything was said.

At this moment, Xu Lan's mind was completely blank.

He, he found out? !

How did he find out?

It's over!!

Xu Lan's already flushed cheeks were completely red at this moment, burning with shyness, and she wished she could find a crack in the ground to crawl into!
