Chapter 194: Ambush in the Lake! (Part 1)
Shen Ruoyan followed Jiang Chengfeng outside. The drizzle had stopped and a ray of setting sun was shining, adding a touch of warmth to this gloomy winter.
Shen Ruoyan leaned on the railing and sighed, "I didn't expect Miss Su to be so deeply in love that she waited for 28 years. It's really admirable!"
"Admiration?" Jiang Chengfeng couldn't help but laugh, "Miss, if I say she is scheming, will you scold me?"
As expected, Shen Ruoyan snorted coldly with a bad look on her face: "What do you mean by this? Do you think everyone is as cunning as you?"
Jiang Chengfeng was helpless and asked, "Miss, let me ask you a question first! Could Miss Su really have jumped into the lake just now?"
Shen Ruoyan was stunned for a moment, and then she thought carefully. There were several small boats parked outside the pleasure boat! All the boats were Tang Yin's guards. As long as Su Yueqing jumped into the lake, those guards would definitely be able to salvage her in the first place, so even if Su Yueqing jumped into the lake, she would not die.
"In fact, in my opinion, Miss Su did this just to show off to Old Man Tang!" Jiang Chengfeng laughed, "This is a small punishment for Old Man Tang, and it's also a way for Miss Su to save face. I have to say, Miss Su is very smart!"
As for women, the methods they use are nothing more than crying, making a fuss, and then hanging themselves. It is the same whether in this era or in the future.
"Could it be that you're saying that Miss Su has long since stopped caring about what happened back then?" Shen Ruoyan asked in surprise.
"Maybe even earlier!" Jiang Chengfeng took a deep breath of the fresh air after the rain, looked down at the goldfish swimming happily in the lake, and said with a smile: "I guess Miss Su regretted writing that little note, but the matter was spread overnight, and Miss Su was in a dilemma. Old Man Tang and Miss Su both care about their reputation, so neither of them took the initiative. Twenty-eight years have passed in a flash!"
"To put it bluntly, if one of them could put aside their pride and break the barrier between them, maybe they would have been together a long time ago!"
Hearing this, Shen Ruoyan also sighed and said, "Speaking of which, you are still a pretty good matchmaker! It's just that you tied it in the wrong place!"
"The wrong one?" Jiang Chengfeng was surprised. "No way! Men should be tied on the left and women on the right!"
Shen Ruoyan rolled her eyes and said, "It shouldn't be tied on the wrist, but on the ankle! Men on the left and women on the right, understand?"
As she spoke, Shen Ruoyan even stretched out her right foot and shook it as a demonstration. Sure enough, there was indeed a red string tied around her snow-white right ankle!
Jiang Chengfeng touched his nose and thought to himself, so there is such a saying. He had never studied it carefully before!
After thinking for a while, Jiang Chengfeng took out the red thread, tied it around his left ankle, and then tied their respective threads together, and said with a wry smile: "Is that so? But you and I are not destined to be together, young lady. Even if we are tied together, we may not be able to be together!"
Shen Ruoyan was stunned. She stared blankly at the red string that tied them together. Her cheeks felt hot. Then she cursed in a crisp voice, "Jiang Dazhu, why are you tying it? Untie it quickly!"
After saying that, she turned her head away and did not meet Jiang Chengfeng's playful gaze.
"If you want to untie it, you can do it yourself!" Jiang Chengfeng was not moved at all, and laughed: "Why do you have to let me do it!"
At this moment, several black shadows suddenly jumped out from the water and jumped onto the boat. Under the setting sun, the steel knives in the hands of these men in black flashed with a cold light.
"Everyone come together and kill Tang Yin!" one of the men in black shouted.
Jiang Chengfeng was shocked and was about to pull Shen Ruoyan away, but he saw a flash of silver light, a sword passed by, and the red line on his foot broke.
After being stunned for a second, Jiang Chengfeng stepped back. The man in black did not want to kill him, but only wanted to cut the red line. Most importantly, the man in black had profound skills, which were comparable to A-Lin's.
Shen Ruoyan cried out in surprise, looking at the red thread that was broken into two pieces, and stood there stupidly, as if she was in a state of dementia.
Seeing that the man in black was about to swing his sword to kill Shen Ruoyan, Jiang Chengfeng became anxious and stood in front of Shen Ruoyan. At the same time, he punched the man in black, and the man in black retreated four or five steps before stopping.
Jiang Chengfeng ignored the man in black and turned to stare at Shen Ruoyan, "Miss, what's wrong with you?"
Shen Ruoyan came back to her senses, looking sad, and just said lightly, "I'm fine, don't worry!"
The man in black opposite couldn't help but snorted coldly when he saw the two people caring about each other.
This cold snort seemed familiar. Jiang Chengfeng looked carefully and found that the person in black had a slim figure and was actually a woman. He suddenly remembered, isn't this the little girl Yunxian?
Last time, she broke into the Shen Mansion at night and wanted to kill Shen Qingdie, and today she wants to kill Shen Ruoyan again. Could it be that this little girl has an old grudge against the Shen family?
Looking at the distance, the four or five men in black who were trying to assassinate Tang Yin were being held tightly by Tang Yin's three expert guards, while the other guards were rowing desperately towards this side. On the Red Immortal Sect side, men in black also kept jumping out of the lake and joining the battle.
Tang Yin stood in front of Su Yueqing and did not dodge. He just stared coldly at the man in black. He did not look afraid, but rather calm and composed.
Since Yunxian appeared here, the man in black must be from the Red Immortal Sect! Just yesterday, Tang Yin killed several Red Immortal Sect thugs and destroyed the Red Immortal Sect's branch in Huazhou. And today, he secretly helped the Shen family to overthrow the Fang family. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is the Red Immortal Sect's mortal enemy.
Jiang Chengfeng looked at Liu Yunxian, then at the man in black, and immediately figured out about 70% of the assassination case.
Seeing that more and more of Tang Yin's guards were coming, one of the men in black shouted, "Everyone, work harder and kill Tang Yin!"
After he shouted like that, the other men in black also fought as if they were risking their lives, and every move they made was a ruthless one that meant they would all die together.
Liu Yunxian glanced coldly at Shen Ruoyan who was standing behind Jiang Chengfeng, then she tiptoed and darted away like a swallow, helping the men in black to assassinate Tang Yin.
Jiang Chengfeng was distressed, thinking, this girl is too bold, isn't she? In the past, robbing the Shen family was understandable. But now, she actually wants to assassinate Tang Yin, who is a super-class official of the current dynasty! This is a serious crime punishable by the execution of nine generations of the clan!
After thinking for a while, Jiang Chengfeng gritted his teeth, rushed forward, and grabbed Liu Yunxian's wrist, "Yunxian, why are you here?"
Liu Yunxian covered her face with a black scarf, so her expression could not be seen clearly. However, she snorted coldly, broke away from Jiang Chengfeng, and said, "Don't bother with me! You should just play the matchmaking game with your eldest lady!"
The overwhelming smell of vinegar is so sour that it’s almost killing me!
Jiang Chengfeng smiled bitterly. He and the young lady were just joking, but this girl was shouting for war and killing. This damn character must be changed in the future!
