Chapter 886 Jing Yuan x Original Heroine 16

When Jing Yuan spoke, he still had that gentle smile on his face, like the warm sunshine in spring, with a hint of warmth.

However, deep in those eyes, there was a hidden meaning, as if covered by a veil.

"No, I'm leaving. See you later." Lin Qian raised his hand and knocked his head hard, as if to knock those crazy thoughts out of his body.

She stood up and staggered out of the door, as if she wanted to escape from the Shen Ce Mansion.

"Miss Lin, take care." Jing Yuan signaled with his eyes that a guard should follow behind Lin Qian to protect her safety.

"Sir X, do you notice anything unusual?" Jing Yuan then casually handed the notebook to one of his men who had been investigating Lin Qian's background in the past few days and asked.

"A teacher who teaches Chinese language and literature has ugly handwriting and writes so slowly. He must be hiding something on purpose." The subordinate reported to Jing Yuan truthfully.

The men secretly thought that they should follow this clue and maybe get some information.

Jing Yuan still had that gentle smile on his face. He looked at the scenery outside the door and continued to say to his men, "This matter is not urgent. We still have to focus on our usual tasks."

"Yes, General." After speaking to Jing Yuan, the subordinate left.

The night was as dark as ink, so thick that it could not be dissolved. Jing Yuan and Yan Qing, who couldn't sleep, sat opposite each other, playing chess in front of the chessboard, while Jing Yuan closed his eyes to rest.

"Alas, I guess it's because I'm getting older, and my eyesight isn't as good as it used to be..."

Jing Yuan casually supported his head with one hand. When he heard the sound of Yan Qing's move, he slowly opened his eyes and placed another move at a leisurely pace.

It is unclear whether Jing Yuan's words were meant to be heard or just casually said. On the surface, he seemed to be making fun of his poor eyesight and difficulty seeing the chess pieces on the board.

However, in reality, Jing Yuan's mind did not seem to stay on the chessboard, and what he was talking about was by no means just the chess pieces on the chessboard...

Recently, after Lin Qian finished dealing with school affairs, he would come to the Shen Ce Mansion on time to work.

Ever since she found out Bai Lu had moved out, Lin Qian has been feeling remorseful and regretful that she had agreed to Jing Yuan's job at the Shen Ce Mansion, which was tantamount to finding a cage for herself.

Lin Qian sat down next to the desk as Jing Yuan arranged, but her butt felt very uncomfortable. She was grinding ink for Jing Yuan slowly and absent-mindedly.

Lin Qian had been thinking about how to tell Jing Yuan about her resignation, and also, this stool was really uncomfortable to sit on.

"Why is Miss Lin silent?" Jing Yuan glanced at Lin Qian casually and asked.

"Reporting to the General, I taught students for two hours this morning..."

"The general not only doesn't feel sorry for me, but also lets me do such rough work... but he even complains that I don't talk. Could it be that the general thinks that I am not as efficient as others..."

Lin Qian glanced at Jing Yuan resentfully, and started chatting again with a pitiful look on her face.

"Miss Lin, you have indeed worked hard." Jing Yuan looked at Lin Qian with his deep and beautiful golden eyes, and there seemed to be a faint and gentle smile in his eyes.

Then, while Lin Qian stood up to get another box of ink, Jing Yuan brought over a cushion and calmly placed it on the spot where Lin Qian had originally sat.

"Ms. Lin is a member of the Bozhi Society, and I cannot let others say that I have treated Miss Lin unfairly."

After Lin Qian sat on the mat and looked at him with a puzzled look, Jing Yuan spoke slowly and gently with a smile.

"With a beautiful lady by his side, the general is so comfortable. I envy him so much."

Jiaoqiu fiddled with his folding fan gently in his hand and walked into the room leisurely as if he was strolling in the garden.

It was originally a teasing remark, but when he saw Lin Qian's figure clearly, he paused slightly as if he was cast under a spell.

"Jiao Jiao, are your eyes completely healed?" When Lin Qian saw Jiao Qiu, her eyes lit up. She immediately put down the work in her hands, lifted her skirt and ran towards Jiao Qiu.
