C178 Who Did It Fall into
It was probably because Liang Ying heard that Zhao Shihong was coming to look for Shi Jiangyuan that she followed him over.
It seemed that this Liang Ying was interested in Shi Jiangyuan. Thinking that Liang Ying was Shi Jiangyuan's admirer, Kang Ying secretly glanced at her a few times. She felt that this girl was quite pretty, but if she and Shi Jiangyuan were to become a couple, it was still not good enough.
Shi Jiangyuan, on the other hand, was focused on his conversation with Zhao Shihong. He didn't pay attention to Liang Ying's appearance, nor to her emotions. In fact, from his dull expression, Kang Ying felt that Shi Jiangyuan didn't even notice Liang Ying's feelings for her.
It seemed that if Liang Ying wanted to chase after Shi Jiangyuan, she would have to put in more effort.
Kang Ying could not help but yawn. She thought that she had secretly yawned, but did not expect Shi Jiangyuan to suddenly stop and ask her:
"Kang Ying, are you sleepy?"
All of a sudden, the atmosphere at the scene froze. Kang Ying yawned halfway and was driven by Shi Jiangyuan to ask something.
While Zhao Shihong was relishing the secret news that had occurred in the capital, he felt that everyone would be interested in this topic and talking excitedly. Suddenly, his Elder Brother Yuan stopped and asked Kang Ying if she was sleepy …
Zhao Shihong stopped talking and looked towards Kang Ying …
With so many pairs of eyes focused on her yawn, Kang Ying felt awkward as well.
"I really am a bit sleepy. During the day, I was too busy at the shopping mall."
"Then rest early. There's also Liang Ying. Miss has to sleep early. It won't be easy for her to grow old." Shi Jiangyuan knew how to joke around, but this joke was rather cold, "Shihong, if you're not tired, let's chat again."
Kang Ying was a kind person. "Then I'm sorry, but I can't accompany you any longer. I'll go rest first. I still need to get up early tomorrow."
The purpose of Zhao Shihong's trip was to find Shi Jiangyuan. Of course, he didn't care, but Liang Ying's heart skipped a beat. She thought everyone was listening to Zhao Shihong's chat with full concentration, so she didn't expect him to notice Kang Ying, who was sitting behind her, yawning.
Could it be that Shi Jiangyuan had been secretly observing Kang Ying?
Liang Ying's heart felt like it was overturned. It was sour, spicy, and full of everything.
Seeing that Shi Jiangyuan told her to go to bed early, she also stood up angrily and said: "Okay, I'm also sleepy, I want to go to bed."
"Go, go, Elder Brother Yuan and I haven't seen each other for so long, we need to have a good chat!"
Zhao Shihong waved his hand and was really eager for Liang Ying to leave.
Liang Ying saw that Shi Jiangyuan really had no intention to keep him, so she could only chase after him and say to Kang Ying,
"Elder Sister Kang Ying, where is my room? Can you take me there? "
Of course, Kang Ying was duty-bound, and she ignored Liang Ying's call for her sister.
Girls fought openly and secretly, but Kang Ying was completely unaware of the fact that Kang Ying was older than her.
In her previous life, she rarely had a boyfriend, nor had she had the experience of being jealous of others. In this regard, it could be said that she was as good as paper, so Liang Ying's way of addressing her as "elder sister" didn't make her angry.
As such, Liang Ying's attack landed on empty air and did not cause any ripples in Kang Ying's heart.
"Watch the road carefully, the lights are a bit dim."
Kang Ying brought Liang Ying to the outermost chamber in the east wing and pushed open the door.
Liang Ying saw that the furnishings in the room were simple. There was a wooden bed, a heavy wooden table, a stool, and a wardrobe. Other than that, there was nothing else. It was simple but still clean.
"The conditions here are limited. This is the only way." Kang Ying said.
Liang Ying thought to herself, this is Shi Jiangyuan's house, second aunt's house, it makes you feel like its owner.
Therefore, Liang Ying smiled and said, "It's alright, it's pretty good. It's been tidied up quite neatly. You've worked hard."
Liang Ying also knew how to speak on the spot, so she wouldn't do anything impolite. Besides, it wasn't the time for a life and death battle yet. It wasn't clear who would win.
No matter what position Kang Ying occupied in Shi Jiangyuan's heart, Kang Ying's family had already determined that she was destined to only be a passerby in Shi Jiangyuan's life due to her birth.
Only a girl like her, who was similar to Shi Jiangyuan, was the first choice for Shi Jiangyuan to get married.
Liang Ying made up her mind and decided not to mess around.
It would not be easy for her family to struggle to become like this. By doing so, they had already created a huge gap between them and others.
Even if it was Monkey Sun, flipping a somersault for a thousand miles was a very difficult task. Before he could learn the somersault, he would still need to cultivate for several hundred years in seclusion.
Kang Ying would never be able to bridge the gap between her and Shi Jiangyuan in this lifetime, so Shi Jiangyuan was hers and this matter would definitely not change.
Liang Ying felt that Shi Jiangyuan was lost for a moment. As long as he left Lu County, he would forget Kang Ying.
It was as if her father, who had come to the village as a young man of knowledge, had been bewitched by her mother more than twenty years ago.
Speaking of her own mother, Liang Ying always carried a slight disdain in her heart, because her mother was actually a person of Lu County as well.
However, unlike Shi Jiangyuan who was deeply in love with Lu County, Liang Ying did not like Lu County because the mother who was born with Lu County was unable to help her father in any way.
Looking at those who had married into noble families and were full of spirit, his father became even more dejected. Even when he was drunk, he would secretly hit his mother.
When Liang Ying thought about this, her eyes darkened. Because her father disliked it, she never returned to Lu County.
As time passed, she even felt that she had nothing to do with Lu County at all.
If it wasn't for Shi Jiangyuan's abnormal behavior in the Lu County, she wouldn't have rushed here from such a distance.
This used to be the place where her mother lived, but she didn't have any good feelings towards it.
Especially after seeing Kang Ying, the woman in front of him was elegant and refined, just like an immortality peach. She was green, but the top of the peach was already faintly red, causing others to be captivated by her pure and flirtatious aura. Then, they would scratch their ears and stand to the side, wishing that she would quickly mature and eat it.
The alarm in Liang Ying's heart had long sounded. She had already treated Kang Ying as an opponent.
The women of Lu County were very scary. Once they really wanted to, they could attack and suppress any man.
Liang Ying was secretly worried. When Shi Jiangyuan's mother was with her father, it was the same. When her mother was with her own father, was Shi Jiangyuan going to fall into Kang Ying's hands again?
