Qin Dynasty: Starting with clinging to Zhao Ji's thigh

Chapter 114 Zi Nu: We're having a feast tomorrow, right?

A song of tears over the vast sea, yet it contains the emotions that Nongyu poured into it.

Only those with deepest feelings and truest nature can understand its mysteries and hear the melody of the heartstrings beneath the surface of the music.

Even Zi Nu couldn't hear this at all.

She could only hear the surface of the music; if Ying Jing hadn't spoken up first, Zi Nu would have probably praised it as beautiful.

However, Zi Nu had adopted Nong Yu for so many years, so she knew her quite well.

In Nongyu's heart, her background has always been a major unresolved issue.

The man before me, Lord Changxin, had never met Nongyu before, yet after hearing her music only once, he so confidently revealed the knot in her heart.

Undoubtedly, he had truly understood the melody that touched her heartstrings and gained a deep understanding of Nongyu's inner world.

Zi Nu was filled with remorse. She had done something so stupid that she couldn't forgive herself: she had directly handed Nong Yu to Chang Xin Jun's lips.

It is rare to find a true friend in life, which is why the story of Bo Ya and Zi Qi, known for their profound friendship, has been passed down to this day.

How rare it is to find a soulmate who can understand your heart through music! Such a person must be a close friend with whom you are intimately connected on a spiritual level, and a deeper relationship would naturally follow.

If Bo Ya and Zi Qi weren't both men, it might have become a love story by today.

But Lord Changxin and Nongyu are actually a man and a woman...

"Lord Changxin..."

At this moment, Nongyu was speechless for a moment, her clear eyes overflowing with joy.

Although there was a vast difference in their social status, Changxin Jun might have been able to hear the melody of her heart and understand her inner thoughts...

This is undoubtedly the best confidant, a person worthy of trust!

Therefore, it must be true that Lord Changxin wants to help investigate his background, and he will do his best!

"Nongyu thanks Lord Changxin!"

Nongyu had already stood up and was walking towards Ying Jing.

Her emerald green high heels accentuated her slender figure, and her graceful steps lacked the allure of the woman in purple. Her delicate and elegant face radiated a bright smile.

"Regarding Nongyu's background, Sister Zinu has been investigating for me for many years but still has no results... This is the Fire Rain Agate that I have carried with me since I was a child. I hope it will be of some help to Lord Changxin when he investigates this matter."

As she spoke, she removed a fiery red gem from her waist.

Seeing this scene, Zi Nu felt a pang of heartache.

Nongyu didn't refuse!

This was a beautiful young woman whom she had raised like a daughter. Zi Nu understood perfectly well what it meant that Nongyu was willing to accept Changxin Jun's help.

They tried every means to stop Lord Changxin from abducting the person, but their efforts backfired.

My heart aches even more!

Zi Nu couldn't help but cover the valley between the two mountain peaks.

Nongyu was completely oblivious to Zinu's expression; at that moment, her eyes were only on Yingjing, and there was a hint of expectation in her elegant and clear eyes.

Under normal circumstances, Nongyu would definitely refuse such inexplicable kindness, let alone offer the only clue to her background, the Fire Rain Agate.

But things are different now. The melody of the heartstrings is a communication between hearts, and there is no deception involved.

Nongyu has completely come to regard Ying Jing as her trusted confidant and friend.

There's no need to worry too much, nor to fret about not being able to repay any favors; everything is understood without words.

Outsiders can never truly understand what this state of mind is like; only those who experience it firsthand can truly comprehend it.

But... Nongyu never imagined that there would be such a freak as Ying Jing in this world, who could listen to such heart-string sounds by cheating.

Even her profound feelings are inextricably linked to Ying Jing's cheating.

Under normal circumstances, even if someone could understand this heartfelt sentiment, it would at most bring Nongyu some joy and make her willing to exchange a few words with him as a friend.

The level of understanding that Bo Ya and Zi Qi reached could not be so easily achieved with just a piece of music.

"So this is Fire Rain Agate? It is indeed very valuable..."

This is a blood-red agate gemstone, warm and smooth to the touch, shimmering faintly in the sunlight streaming through the window.

"Should I return the favor in kind?"

After accepting the Fire Rain Agate from Nongyu's hand, Ying Jing hesitated for a moment, but still didn't dare to take the bracelet out of his pocket.

Yan Lingji bought a bunch of bracelets, but he left most of them with Liu Yi. However, he also took one and kept it on his person for emergencies.

But in the current situation, using such a low-quality bracelet is really not acceptable.

"Since Miss Nongyu trusts me so much, I cannot let you down."

As Ying Jing spoke, he took off the jade pendant he was wearing at his waist.

"This jade was bestowed by the Empress Dowager and I rarely part with it. So I will temporarily entrust it to Miss Nongyu. We will exchange it after we find out about Miss Nongyu's background."

This jade has been with Ying Jing for many years, and it was a reward he received for currying favor with Zhao Ji back then.

If Ying Jing hadn't been carrying nothing else suitable, he really would have been reluctant to part with it.

Nongyu had clear eyes and a gentle, elegant demeanor.

She did not refuse and gladly accepted the jade pendant. Between close friends, there is no need for hesitation.

"Perhaps Nongyu can't help Changxin-jun in any way, but whenever Changxin-jun comes to Zilan Pavilion, Nongyu will always sweep the couch to welcome him."

Nongyu spoke softly, her voice gentle and sweet, like a clear and pleasant mountain spring.

As she spoke, she gave a graceful bow to express her gratitude.

Nongyu was very close to Ying Jing, and at this moment Ying Jing could easily smell the faint fragrance emanating from her.

Ying Jing immediately raised his hand and gently helped him up.

Her skin was truly like solidified cream, and even through an elegant long dress, it remained as smooth and lustrous as jade.

Why be so formal between us?

Ying Jing wore a faint smile, gentle and warm.

"With a confidante like Miss Nongyu, I can't help but become a frequent visitor to Zilan Pavilion. I only hope that Nongyu won't find it a bother."

Given Nongyu's personality, the fact that she extended such an invitation to him meant that Ying Jing could say with certainty that the door in her heart was completely open to him.

If we visit Zilanxuan more often to deepen our relationship, everything will naturally fall into place.

There's a big difference between a confidant and a female confidante.

But Nongyu did not refute, only a blush swept across her fair cheeks: "Changxin-jun..."

Ying Jing understood the principle of moderation and did not pursue the matter further. Instead, he talked to Nongyu about music.

As Ying Jing had expected, when talking to his most trusted confidante about what she was best at, Nongyu suddenly became very talkative...

Before they knew it, their relationship had grown much closer.

However... seeing the two becoming increasingly intimate and oblivious to others, Zi Nu really couldn't help herself!

There are still people in this Purple Jade Pavilion!

Although Hei Bai Xuan Jian had already wisely left, wasn't she a living, breathing person?

This is developing too fast. They've already exchanged tokens of love, and now they're so close?

If this continues, she might be able to attend a banquet tomorrow?
