Chapter 126: The plot reverses, and then reverses
Finally waking up from the chaos, Jiang Lai opened his eyes and found himself in Gu Zhengbei's arms. The man walked steadily towards the castle.
"Gu Zhengbei."
"Awake?" Hearing Jiang Lai calling him, Gu Zhengbei lowered his head and smiled dotingly at Jiang Lai, "Go to sleep, there's nothing to do tonight."
"No, I'm fine, let me get down and walk." Gu Zhengbei thought he must have no strength after holding such a heavy weight for so long, so he struggled to get down.
Gu Zhengbei did not stop Jiang Lai from going down to the ground, only then did he notice that Anna was following them with her head bowed. Seeing that Jiang Lai had woken up, she felt a little uneasy.
"Anna?" Jiang Lai called out while moving his stiff body.
"Oh, sister, I didn't mean it." Not daring to look at Jiang Lai, Anna just lowered her head, her voice sounded very aggrieved.
"Gu Zhengbei!"
Earl Smith's voice sounded from a distance, Gu Zhengbei and Jiang Lai turned their heads to look, while Anna lowered her head.
When Gu Zhengbei came out, he mentioned it to the Earl, seeing that Gu Zhengbei hadn't come back for a while, the Earl sent someone out to have a look, but the servant came back and reported that the two had fallen into the water, so he took everyone there.
"What happened?" Seeing that Jiang Lai and Gu Zhengbei were drenched, the Earl was puzzled, "I heard that you fell into the swimming pool? What's going on?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the count suddenly saw Anna behind the two of them, and became angry instantly.
"Anna?"
"What, what's wrong!" The moment Earl Smith called Anna, she trembled, but quickly recovered, "I'm not allowed here!"
"Why are you here?" Smart as an earl, how could he not know what Anna was thinking, "You didn't sneak out to date that brat while taking advantage of the chaos of the ball!"
"No, I came out to take a look when I heard the movement outside." Although she spoke very weakly, Anna still refused to admit defeat, desperately making up lies, and at the same time secretly tugged at the corner of Jiang Lai's clothes in front of her.
"It's a ghost that I would believe your words! Go back and deal with you." Knowing that his daughter's speech is unreliable, Earl Smith stopped talking to her and turned to look at Gu Zhengbei, "Hurry up and change your clothes when you are so wet. Did you fall into the water?"
Seeing the earl's question, Gu Zhengbei didn't say anything, but turned his gaze to Jiang Lai.
"No, I came out to dissuade you." Jiang Lai knew that as the person concerned, only he had the right to speak, so he planned to explain the ins and outs of the matter clearly, but at this moment, Anna kept tugging at the corner of her clothes.
"I'm going to be scolded to death, please, please."
When Jiang Lai heard Anna approaching him and speaking to him in words that only two people could hear, Jiang Lai suddenly hesitated.
Turning his head to look at Anna who was very terrified, a smiling face looked at Jiang Lai pitifully at the moment, his eyes showed genuine prayer.
When Gu Zhengbei was walking back with Jiang Lai in his arms, Quan Shu had already left, and now he was standing behind Earl Smith with no expression on his face, but he could clearly see Anna's small movements.
I didn't expect to witness a farce tonight. When Quan Shu was surprised, seeing Anna pleading with Jiang Lai now makes people laugh even more.
It seems that there will be a scene of father-daughter education tonight.
Jiang Lai originally thought that Anna was like Ke Ke, with a hint of tenderness in it.Now seeing that she, who was domineering and domineering, has lost all her spikes, she is so pitiful, and her heart softens.
Sighing, he finally changed his mind.
"I was feeling a little bored at first, so I wanted to go out for a walk, but I accidentally slipped and fell into the swimming pool. Fortunately, Gu Zhengbei came in the end." Jiang Lai smiled apologetically at Earl Smith, "I'm sorry to disturb you for this dance."
In the corner, Quan Shu narrowed his eyes dangerously, not quite understanding why Jiang Lai changed his words.
"Hey, it's okay. The swimming pool is really dangerous outside. I'll send someone to add a fence when I go back." It must be his own responsibility for the accident in the swimming pool here. The earl reached out and patted Jiang Lai on the shoulder, "It's fine if it's okay. , go down and change your clothes."
Gu Zhengbei felt that something was wrong. Seeing Anna's abnormal appearance and Jiang Lai's hesitation to speak, he felt that there was something wrong, but if Jiang Lai didn't say anything, he didn't ask, and hugged Jiang Lai to go back. Walk.
"Wait, wait a minute." Jiang Lai said suddenly, his voice was a little loud, and everyone was taken aback, "Well, I want Anna to accompany me in to change clothes."
Everyone was puzzled, Jiang Lai just looked at Earl Smith: "Is it okay, Earl."
Earl Smith was also taken aback for a moment, and then laughed in relief.
"You didn't protect her because you were afraid that I would punish her." The earl smiled and waved his hand, "You go." After speaking and leading everyone back to the ball, Gu Zhengbei didn't say anything, gone.
Quan Shu saw all this and only thought it was very interesting.
Jiang Lai could have said it. If she said it, Earl Smith would definitely believe it, and at the same time, he would feel that he owed the heroine a favor. In this way, the balance will likely tilt in the direction of Gu Zhengbei, but Jiang Lai No, this is interesting.
Without any benefits for him, maybe Jiang Lai is a kind-hearted bun. Thinking of this, Quan Shu sneered again, feeling that he seemed to think highly of Jiang Lai.
Seeing that Jiang Lai didn't tell the truth about this matter, and asked himself to accompany her to change clothes, so that his father would not punish him, he was instantly grateful to Jiang Lai, and at the same time despised Jiang Lai very much in his heart.
It seems to be a soft persimmon, and a very soft persimmon that is easy to pinch.
"Anna."
"Well, thank you for today." Anna was happy after entering the room, and swaggered to the sofa, feeling at ease.
Although there is no way to date Hans tonight, there is still a chance, right?
"Break up with the art student."
When Jiang Lai said these words out of the blue, Anna choked and coughed violently.
"Ahem! Hey! Ahem! I'm completely speechless to you!"
"What are you doing? You were fine just now!" Anna stared at Jiang Lai viciously with wide eyes, "Why are you so annoying, don't mention it, okay, it has nothing to do with you."
"Anna, listen to me." Jiang Lai tried to explain, thinking that Anna might be able to see through this incident, "I've heard about that art student, he has many ex-partners, you know, he He's very naughty, he just throws it away every time he's playing, you know? Any sweet talk is fake, sweet talk is fart, it's not good to say, he just wants to pick up girls."
"No, no, he has always been very polite to me, stop listening to other people's nonsense." I don't know how many times I explained this to others, Anna suppressed her anger, "This is my private matter, OK? Can you leave me alone."
"Why don't you understand, it's impossible for the prodigal son to turn back! The odds are too low!" What else can be explained besides the low probability of the prodigal son's return.
"But he didn't do anything to me!" Anna argued with a blushing face. In her eyes, Hans was just a man who treated her very well.
"It's because he didn't achieve his goal, so he's still by your side. Don't you know that a man is a species that doesn't give up until he achieves his goal?"
"You..." What Jiang Lai said seemed to make sense, and Anna didn't know how to refute for a moment.
"If you don't break up, I will tell Earl Smith what happened tonight." Jiang Lai said with her arms crossed, her expression was very complacent, and the initiative was in her hands, "Wake up, Anna, when you lose something It's too late."
"You, you contradict what you said! You meddled in my private affairs! Baba! Mother!"
Anna slammed the door angrily and left, Jiang Lai looked at the buzzing door and sighed for a long time.
"Is it true that good intentions are not rewarded..."
Jiang Lai muttered and walked out, bumping into a strong chest.
"Hey!" Because Jiang Lai was distracted, Jiang Lai used a lot of strength, and the chest facing him was very strong, Jiang Lai's nose hurt from being bumped, and he wailed.
"Is that Jiang Lai? Very scheming."
The voice was cold and deep, it wasn't Gu Zhengbei, Jiang Lai was taken aback and suddenly raised his head, facing Shang Quanshu's face that seemed to be smiling but not smiling.
"You are... Quan Shu?" It should be Quan Shu, but Jiang Lai didn't understand how he could see him here.
"I was just passing by, and I didn't expect to hear something interesting."
Quan Shu smiled evilly, and there was a lot of meaning in the smile.
Bad was heard by him.
Knowing that Quan Shu heard it, Jiang Lai's heart skipped a beat, but after all, it wasn't his fault, so naturally he didn't care too much.
Don't lose momentum.
Jiang Lai glanced at Quan Shu contemptuously, and spoke quietly.
"A person of your status can also climb walls? It really refreshed my three views."
"..." Thinking that Jiang Lai would have the expression of someone stepping on his face, he didn't expect that not only did he not respond, but he even spoke back to him, Quan Shu habitually narrowed his eyes.
"Why? Is this attitude not afraid of me speaking out?"
Without giving Jiang Lai a chance to speak, Quan Shu continued, "Oh yes, it's not your fault, don't worry, but Gu Zhengbei's girlfriend is really not an ordinary person, who likes to meddle in other people's business so much?"
"Hehe, you are curious enough, each other."
I also knew that Quan Shu would not say good things. Jiang Lai had heard such ironic words when he was arguing with An Xiuyuan, so he naturally didn't take them to heart.
"Hahaha."
Jiang Lai was not embarrassed, but also countered that he was very curious. Quan Shu suddenly became interested, and used his tall body to push Jiang Lai into the corner.
"Miss Jiang, you are so eloquent."
"What are you doing?" Seeing Quan Shu forcing himself to back up, Jiang Lai wanted to push him but couldn't, "Hey, what are you doing! Be careful, I'm calling someone!"
"Calling someone? This is the reaction you should have. Little girls should learn to be afraid." Quan Shu said in a gloomy tone, which sent chills down the spine.
One approached forward, and the other retreated vigilantly. After a while, Jiang Lai felt his back hit the wall with a bang. Quan Shu was still pressing down. She was pushed against the wall, and she looked up at Quan Shu unwillingly. , wondering what he was going to do.
