The Mad Heiress Played Innocent, and the Third Master Fell Hard - Chapter 20

She hesitated, remembering the purpose of her visit.

Yu Guiwan said calmly, “Classes will proceed as usual.”

Ling Feiyan opened her mouth.

Yu Guiwan lazily tapped the piano lid with the tip of her other finger.

If Jiang Yuhuai were here, he would recognize that her very casual movements, when placed on the piano keys, would make a very beautiful piece of music.

Even if it’s just chord tones.

“I’m just a good-for-nothing now.”

She said this calmly.

Even Ling Feiyan couldn’t help but twitch her lips.

no……

Is this guy… a complete idiot?

Who said that?!

After hesitating for a while, she finally managed to say, “Could you perhaps take a look at my new composition when you have a spare moment?”

Yu Guiwan raised her eyes, paused for a few seconds, and said, “Okay.”

A hint of surprise flashed in Ling Feiyan’s eyes, “Thank you, old man…”

Yu Guiwan glanced at her indifferently.

Ling Feiyan forced back the last word.

“Thank you… Mrs. Jiang.”

Yu Guiwan hummed in agreement.

…

Jiang Yuhuai came out after the meeting.

Exactly half an hour has passed.

He glanced at the time on his wristwatch and went downstairs.

But then I saw Jiangxi standing at the door.

The door to the music room was closed.

The man paused for a moment, then walked over.

“What happened?”

Jiangxi looked miserable. “I was kicked out by the young mistress.”

Jiang Yuhuai raised an eyebrow.

Jiangxi repeated what he had just said to Jiang Yuhuai.

“Then, the young mistress let me out.”

Jiang Yuhuai smiled slightly and hummed in agreement, “I understand.”

He walked over, raised his hand, and gently knocked on the door.

A moment later, the door opened from the inside.

Yu Guiwan raised her eyes.

Jiang Yuhuai smiled and patted her head. “Was it fun?”

Yu Guiwan did not answer his question. “I’m going to watch ten episodes today.”

“No, eight episodes.”

“Nine episodes.”

Seven episodes.

Eight episodes.

The man chuckled and replied, “Okay.”

Yu Guiwan glared at him with a resentful look.

Ling Feiyan, standing behind her, had a twitching brow.

She had never seen Yu Guiwan so lively before.

And they’re still so patient in haggling over the price.

She tried her best to hide it so that no one would notice anything on her face.

Jiang Yuhuai’s smile faded slightly as he looked at Ling Feiyan, “Thank you for your hard work today, Teacher Ling.”

Ling Feiyan smiled politely, “It’s no trouble at all, Mrs. Jiang is very clever.”

Jiang Yuhuai raised an eyebrow and hummed in agreement, “My wife has always been very intelligent.”

Jiangxi listened expressionlessly.

I’m afraid only their master in the entire capital would say something like that.

Otherwise, who would praise a good-for-nothing as smart?

Ling Feiyan breathed a sigh of relief. “Today’s class is over. I’ll come back tomorrow.”

Jiang Yuhuai nodded and instructed Jiang Dong, “See Teacher Ling off.”

Jiang Dong nodded. “This way, Teacher Ling.”

Ling Feiyan didn’t dare to look at Yu Guiwan, and walked out of the music room with her head slightly lowered.

Yu Guiwan looked at Jiangxi beside her, “Where’s my tablet?”

Jiangxi glanced at Jiang Yuhuai subconsciously.

The man chuckled, “Go and get the young mistress’s tablet.”

“yes.”

Jiangxi went out, retrieved the tablet, and handed it to Yu Guiwan.

In front of Jiang Yuhuai, Yu Guiwan opened the software, opened the TV series she had only watched half of yesterday, and then gradually turned up the volume.

The music room was filled with melodramatic dialogue.

Seeing this rare display of childishness in her, the man couldn’t help but laugh again.

Yu Guiwan glanced at him but ignored him.

She walked straight into the music room, opened the balcony door, and headed towards the flower room.

Jiang Yuhuai looked at her slender back and thought about how much food she had left over this morning, and his brows furrowed almost imperceptibly.

He withdrew his gaze, turned his eyes to Jiangxi, and his voice became much colder.

“From now on, the young mistress will no longer need to consult me ​​for any instructions.”

Jiangxi lowered his head. “Yes, sir.”

…

The next few days.

Ling Feiyan appeared at Tanyuan on time every day.

Jiang Dong, who was in charge of contacting her, couldn’t help but look at her and sized her up.

Jiangxi was eating an apple when he asked him, puzzled, “What are you looking at?”

Jiang Dong glanced at him, and heard him making smacking noises.

“Ling Feiyan is very strange.”

Jiangxi was puzzled, “What’s so strange about that?”

Jiang Dong remained expressionless. “Ling Feiyan is a top-tier singer-songwriter in the music industry, both in terms of talent and ability, but also the most eccentric person.”

Jiangxi took another bite of the apple. “So?”

“I was instructed by the young master to invite her to teach music, but she refused outright.”

“Then why did you agree to it later?”

Jiang Dong gave him a speechless look. “What do you think?”

Jiangxi silently took the apple away from his mouth.

He looked toward the music room, whose door was tightly shut, not far away.

The faint sound of a zither could be heard coming from inside.

“And now? Why does it feel strange?”

Jiang Dong crossed his arms and said, “Intuition.”

If Ling Feiyan was willing to come to Tanyuan to teach music because she didn’t want to offend Jiang Yuhuai, then she might have been thinking about it.

Now he felt as if there was some kind of temptation drawing her here.

Jiangxi: “…”

His lips twitched. “That’s it?”

Jiang Dong glanced at him but said nothing more.

He turned and went upstairs to his study.

A knock came at the door.

A deep male voice came from inside.

“Enter.”

Jiang Dong pushed the door open and entered, then closed it behind him.

“Young Master.”

Jiang Yuhuai asked without looking up, “What do you want?”

Jiang Dong spoke truthfully, “I suspect that Ling Feiyan’s purpose in coming to Tanyuan is not pure.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Yuhuai looked up, closed the document in his hand, leaned back in his chair, and casually placed his hand on the table.

Tell me about it.

Jiang Dong voiced his suspicions.

“Ling Feiyan was initially very reluctant to come to Tanyuan to teach, but her agent persuaded her to come. However, her attitude is completely different now than it was on the first day she came.”

Jiangdong also lived a life of constant danger and peril.

His sensitivity is naturally extraordinary.

Jiang Yuhuai remained silent, lost in thought.

Jiang Dong hesitated for a few seconds, “I’m worried that someone outside is using Ling Feiyan to get close to the young mistress.”

Jiang Yuhuai is no longer someone without any weaknesses.

The entire capital was watching Tan Garden, watching him.

The only breakthrough lies with Yu Guiwan.

Jiangdong must be on guard.
