Chapter 132 Jiang Lian'er is also here
The two had never looked at each other at such a close distance before.
Jiang Wan was stunned for a moment, then pushed the person away. Before his beating heart could calm down, Liu Chunyan's roar rang out again.
"Ah! You guys! Jiang Wan! You are not allowed to get so close to Master Xie!"
Liu Chunyan trotted over to the two of them and scolded Jiang Wan.
She didn't dare to separate the two men and could only stare at them with red eyes.
Xie Lan's hands were still on Jiang Wan's waist. Hearing this, he remained silent. Instead, he tightened his arms and pulled Jiang Wan into his arms.
Jiang Wan was surprised and reached out to push him again. Xie Lan said calmly, "She already knows."
"?"
what do you know?
Before Jiang Wan could react, she heard Liu Chunyan on the other side questioning her angrily.
"Jiang Wan, you liar! Didn't you say that you are Mr. Xie's cousin and don't know his wife? How come when I went to Mr. Xie's house that day, I heard others say that you and Mr. Xie are husband and wife!"
Jiang Wan's heart skipped a beat. She glared at Xie Lan with resentment, then pretended to be calm and said, "Ms. Liu, I actually have my own difficulties. My cousin Xie... and I were actually engaged since we were young, but we didn't have any feelings for each other when we grew up. So when you asked me that day, I didn't want to cause you to misunderstand, so I lied..."
Before she could finish her words, Xie Lan interrupted her abruptly.
"Miss Liu, there are so many guests outside, and today is Mr. Liu's birthday. Do you have to block us at the door and ask us these meaningless questions?"
Xie Lan's tone was cold, and a look of annoyance gradually appeared on his stern face.
Liu Chunyan felt aggrieved, but she also felt that he was right.
There were a lot of people outside, and today was her father's birthday party.
Xie Lan and Jiang Wan were distinguished guests specially invited by her grandfather. If she made Xie Lan angry and left with Jiang Wan, she would be guilty of a serious crime.
Liu Chunyan bit her lip unwillingly and stared at Jiang Wan. Seeing her innocent face, she finally chose to swallow her anger and settle the score with Jiang Wan later.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Xie, I just..."
"Let's go."
Xie Lan really had lost his patience with Liu Chunyan, so he just took Jiang Wan in his arms and went into the house.
"Thank you, sir!"
Liu Chunyan looked at the two men's backs and stomped her feet in anger and grievance.
The jealousy in her heart was so much that it almost overflowed.
Why is she inferior to Jiang Wan, and why is Xie Lan defending her like this?
Jiang Wan wanted to escape as Xie Lan held her waist tightly. However, Xie Lan's hands were like iron pliers and she couldn't pry them apart no matter how hard she tried.
Jiang Wan raised her head and glared at him angrily, "Why didn't you tell me earlier that Miss Liu knew about our true relationship?"
Xie Lan seemed a little angry and spoke in a cold tone.
"I tell you whatever you do, it will be exposed sooner or later."
"You!" Jiang Wan was furious. "I should prepare in advance! Besides, Miss Liu doesn't look easy to talk to. If she regards me as a love rival, won't she target me everywhere?"
"I am here."
Xie Lan dropped a sentence.
Jiang Wan was stunned, and his ears suddenly felt burning.
Xie Lan would definitely not say such things when she first entered the Liu Mansion. How come she is such a different person in just over a month?
"…That's what you said. If Miss Liu causes trouble for me, I will say it's all your fault. It's you who caused me to have a love affair with you. Don't let me become your shield and endure the humiliation that I shouldn't endure."
Jiang Wan and Liu Chunyan initially denied that they were married to Xie Lan because they did not want to get into unnecessary trouble.
Xie Lan had brought upon herself the romantic debt, so why should she, her nominal wife, have to deal with it?
But now that Xie Lan has promised to protect her from Liu Chunyan, Jiang Wan is not so resistant to the exposure of their marital relationship.
"I know, long-winded."
Xie Lan looked down at her with a hint of a hidden smile in his eyes, "Who told you to lie in the first place? You're asking for trouble."
Jiang Wan was choked and stretched out her hand to twist his waist in dissatisfaction.
"Isn't it your fault? What's wrong with me lying to protect myself?"
She used all her strength, and Xie Lan was caught off guard and was pinched hard by her. He gasped in pain.
Seeing his face turn pale, Jiang Wan thought she was too strong and reached out to rub his waist, still refusing to admit defeat.
"Who told you to make fun of me? It's obviously all your fault."
Jiang Wan's palms were soft and boneless, and they gently rubbed and massaged Xie Lan's waist back and forth.
It made the stinging skin feel an indescribable itchiness.
Xie Lan's ears turned red, but he was reluctant to let Jiang Wan stop. Instead, he coughed and said, "Blame me. I will deal with women who come close to me in the future."
For some reason, Jiang Wan felt that the atmosphere was a little ambiguous.
She looked around and found that they were in a quiet back garden.
Xie Lan brought her to Liu's house, why did they end up here?
Feeling the warmth coming from the body next to him, Jiang Wan pushed the person out with both hands, and said uncomfortably: "Miss Liu didn't catch up, you don't have to hug me anymore."
A trace of extreme disappointment flashed across Xie Lan's eyes, and he immediately put down his hand. Jiang Wan took the opportunity to take two steps to the side and distance himself from him.
"Where is this? Should we go to see Uncle Liu to celebrate his birthday?"
In order to avoid Liu Chunyan who was following behind, Xie Lan squeezed into the crowd with Jiang Wan and turned several corners before arriving at this garden.
He was not familiar with the Liu family, so naturally he didn't know where this place was.
He thought for a moment and said, "I still remember the way here. Follow me."
However, Jiang Wan grabbed his hand and hid with him behind the rockery nearby.
"how……"
"Shh!"
Jiang Wan made a quiet gesture to Xie Lan, and tried to lower her voice and said, "I saw Jiang Lian'er."
"Jiang Lian'er?"
"in front of."
Jiang Wan pointed forward with his hand.
Xie Lan followed the direction she pointed and quickly looked outside. Sure enough, he saw a man and a woman talking by a pond not far away.
Jiang Wan hid behind him, still wondering, "Why is Jiang Lian'er coming to Liu's house? Is she also invited to attend the birthday party?"
But soon, Jiang Wan figured it out.
In the original book, Jiang Lian'er made friends with one young man after another in the town, among whom should be the young master of the Liu family.
So it is not surprising that Jiang Lianer can come to Liu’s house for the banquet.
Jiang Wan continued to silently spy on the two people in front of him, trying hard to listen to their conversation.
"Lian'er, I'm so glad you can come today. This is the butterfly hairpin we saw in the Golden Tower last time. I saw you looked at it a few more times, so I bought it without permission."
The second young master Liu Wenshan took out an exquisitely shaped gold hairpin from his sleeve and handed it to Jiang Lianer as if presenting a treasure.
Jiang Lian'er lowered her eyes and glanced at him, a hint of pride flashing across her eyes, but she tried to refuse.
"Master Liu, this is so bad. I just looked at it because it was beautiful. This hairpin costs twenty taels. How can I let you spend so much money to buy it for me?"
