Shengjing Noble

Chapter 126 Condescending

Song Rui stole the limelight and gradually lost himself amid the flattering congratulations and applause.

Even the inferiority complex that was once hidden in my heart is quietly changing.

Originally, he did not have much hope of being in the top three in the imperial examination, and this trip to Shengjing was mainly about his engagement.

But now that he is being treated like a star by everyone, he has become so carried away that he even thinks he can become the top scorer in the imperial examination.

Su Lanyin stood in the distance and silently watched him being surrounded and praised by the crowd, with waves of ridicule in her eyes.

Take advantage of now to be proud of yourself, after all, the road ahead is full of pitfalls waiting for you!

……

Leave from Langhua Pavilion.

Song Rui was just about to help Su Lanyin get on the carriage when he saw Su Lanxin walking out from inside. She looked sad with tears in the corners of her eyes.

"What happened to Fifth Sister?"

Su Lanyin took the initiative to ask, causing Song Rui to look over hurriedly.

Su Lanxin walked up to them, looked at Song Rui vaguely, and then said aggrievedly: "Second brother didn't get a ranking, he was unhappy, so he left me here and went to drink with his brothers."

Su Lanyin couldn't help but laugh and said, "It seems that the second brother is not convinced. He himself is not as skilled as others, but he abandons the fifth sister to vent his anger. He really has no vision."

Song Rui looked serious when he heard this, and his tone was a bit reprimanding: "How can Sister Lanyin say that? The second young master Su may have left because of something urgent."

Su Lanxin nodded in agreement: "Yes, Yinyin, how could you say that to my second brother? If he knew, he would be so sad."

The two of them are so united in facing the outside world, they are really a perfect match.

Su Lanyin pouted in grievance and said dissatisfiedly: "Fifth sister said it first, and I just agreed with her. Why did Brother Song give me such a bad face!"

Song Rui, who had just been flattered, could not stand her blame. He stopped pretending to be gentle and his good temper disappeared.

He said angrily, "Sister Lanyin, I am only teaching you how to respect others. Since you think I am being disrespectful, then go back by yourself. I will accompany Miss Five to look for the Second Young Master Su."

Su Lanyin's eyes were red, as if she had suffered a great injustice, and she said like a child, "Brother Song, how could you be like this? We came here together, how could you not send me home, but go to accompany my fifth sister instead? No, you must accompany me!"

She was like a rude and unreasonable young lady, reaching out to grab Song Rui's sleeve, but he dodged her move.

"That's enough! Don't be unreasonable! You have a carriage and followers here, so what's the harm in going back alone? On the contrary, the fifth girl is your sister. If she goes to look for the second young master alone, how can you feel at ease if something happens to her? I am doing this for your own good!"

Su Lanyin said angrily, "I don't care. You have to go back with me. I won't let you go with Fifth Sister. No!"

Seeing her acting a bit like a spoiled child, Song Rui's impatience became more obvious, and he was too lazy to pay attention to her anymore.

He turned and looked at Su Lanxin, the irritability in his eyes disappeared, replaced by a gentle smile.

"Fifth Miss, let's go."

"In that case, there will be more Mr. Song."

Su Lanxin smiled and left side by side with Song Rui. When she reached the intersection, she did not forget to look back at Su Lanyin with a provocative smile on her lips, as if she had won a battle.

The unwillingness on Su Lanyin's face did not disappear until their figures completely disappeared.

There was an unintentional mockery in her eyes, and she turned around and got on the carriage without any hesitation.

"Go home."

"Yes."

The driver drove back to the Su Mansion.

Inside the car, Su Lanyin finally stopped holding it in, and the corners of her mouth curled higher and higher.

It really made her laugh to death!

Su Lanxin thought she had snatched a treasure. She really wanted to find an artist to record her smug look on his face.

I guess she really thought Song Rui had some great abilities and could even become the top scorer in the imperial examination.

Little did they know that everything today was under Su Lanyin's control.

What kind of expression will Liu Ruyan have when she finds out that the spider web she carefully laid out has caught her own daughter?

Doesn't Su Lanxin love to snatch everything from her? Then just give all this garbage to her!

……

When I returned to the Su Mansion, I saw Liu Ruyan was about to go out.

The two met on the steps, and Su Lanyin smiled and said, "Where are you going, Madam?"

Liu Ruyan had a cold face and stood on the steps, looking down at her with contempt in her eyes.

"Not going anywhere. I heard there's a good show going on. I'm going to go see it."

There was something else behind her words, and she thought Su Lanyin didn't understand, so she was secretly proud of herself.

"Oh, then Madam, you better go quickly, don't miss the exciting part."

"That's natural!"

The two looked at each other coldly, and then one walked up and the other walked down.

"Oh, right!"

Su Lanyin suddenly turned around and called out to Liu Ruyan who was walking down the stairs.

The positions of the two people were also completely swapped.

This time, it was her turn to look down at Liu Ruyan.

"Madam, you may watch the show, but don't take it seriously. I heard that some people get so caught up in it that they become absorbed in it."

After saying that, Su Lanyin smiled at her, turned around and continued walking up.

Liu Ruyan just felt that she was inexplicable, snorted coldly, and quickly walked down the steps and got on the carriage.

Su Lanyin knew where she was going. Wasn’t it Wanjinfang?

If she remembered correctly, her fourth brother was going to be turned into a human pig in advance today.

In his previous life, Su Shengming was turned into a human pig shortly after Lu Wanjun’s death and after his elder and second brothers met with accidents one after another.

There should be still two years until today in this life.

The reason why it happened so early was because Su Lanyin eliminated the servants around Su Shengming, not giving him time to develop from a small-time gambler to an addicted gambler.

In this life, Su Lanyin secretly bought a casino and bribed many people in the underworld through Liang Youdao.

Then let A'mo guide Su Shengming from small gambling to big gambling.

You have to know that those people in the underworld are the ones who are most likely to lure an innocent person into the casino and lead him into an abyss of no return.

Compared to the servant arranged by Liu Ruyan, the one Su Lanyin found is simply a devil.

However, money makes the world go round, and she, as a wealthy woman, is the King of Hell for these little ghosts.

In his previous life, Liu Ruyan would help Su Shengming conceal the truth, give him some silver to pay off a small gambling debt in the name of goodness, and then let the servant take him to borrow usury.

Of course, the person who lent the money was also arranged by Liu Ruyan, and in the end, all the interest went into her pocket.

In this life, Su Lanyin was the mortgagee, and all the money that Su Shengming got from Liu Ruyan was given to her.

It can be considered as collecting some interest in advance.

Today, Su Shengming will gamble away everything he has, and then be lured into signing a contract to sell himself in order to make a comeback.

This gamble naturally ended in tragedy.

Su Shengming was imprisoned in a dungeon by the casino. He was first whipped and then someone was sent to notify his family to send money.

Based on her understanding of her fourth brother, he would definitely not be willing to tell her and her mother that there were two other brothers.

So, he will find Liu Ruyan just like he did in his previous life.
