The Famous Detective of the Red Mansion

Chapter 188: Tapping on the Door with the Window Open

However, Li Wan's small hands, which looked like scallions, had just grasped the long and thick latch, and before she could make any effort, someone outside suddenly said, "That side door is always locked. Why did it open today?"

Then another person answered carelessly, "Why do you care so much? I can't wish for it to open like this every day in the future. It will be easier to enter the Grand View Garden again."

Two boys entered the Grand View Garden from the side door opened by Ping'er. They were close!

Li Wan's face immediately turned pale with fright. Although she didn't do anything unusual with Sun Shaozong, as a dutiful widow, she stayed in a room with an outsider man [Suyun is not a 'bystander']. She was afraid it would be impossible to explain that she was innocent!

In her panic, she unconsciously stepped back half a step but forgot that there was a step in front of the door. As a result, she lost her footing and fell back!

"Ah..."

Sun Shaozong was quick with his eyes and hands. He rushed up and took her in his arms, then put his hand over her mouth. However, he still heard a half cry of surprise!

This has caused trouble…

Sun Shaozong was speechless, but he knew that he couldn’t be in a panic at this time.

Suyun, rushing aside, made a silent gesture and then lowered her voice and said, "Don't worry. If they come and knock at the door, I will climb over the wall and walk around the back of the mountain. You just need to say that you are tired of strolling, so you stopped here for a rest."

Eh?

This reason seems familiar.

As she spoke, he wanted to put Li Wan down. Unexpectedly, the pretty widow was in a panic, and she held his arm tightly.

At that moment, the voices of those two people outside came in again.

"What was that? Why did it seem like a woman was screaming?"

"It sounds like a bird chirping to me. Where did the woman's voice saying come from? You are not in spring now, are you?"

"You're just springing up! Can't you tell whether it's a person or a bird?"

"Even if it’s people, it’s normal too. There are many female performers in the Grand View Garden, and they are all the forbidden assets of Brother Qiang in the East Mansion. They are something you can’t get. You should hurry up. It's not easy to take a shortcut. Look at you being so slow!"

Hearing that the two people were talking and laughing, the three people in the courtyard were relieved.

"Sister-in-law, it's all right now."

Sun Shaozong felt relieved and tried to pull his arm back.

However, it didn't matter, Li Wan kept holding onto Sun Shaozong's arms. Even his biceps became restless when he felt the two unknown things. Even Sun Shaozong's biceps became restless when he felt the two unknown things.

"You said you are not here to do ”good things.”

No matter how inappropriate the posture was, Li Wan looked up and said with a sad face, "Nobody else knows, but I can't understand it better. Since the death of Lai Da, Wang Xifeng has been holding all the keys to the side door of the Grand View Garden!"

In addition to her son, she lost to Wang Xifeng almost everywhere. She was less favored than Wang Xifeng in front of the elders, less intimate than Wang Xifeng in front of the younger generation, and less powerful than Wang Xifeng in the fight for power.

Even in Wang Xifeng's unhappiest marriage, she was far inferior. After all, no matter how dirty Jia Lian was, at least he was a living man!

Now, even the wild man in her mind has been robbed by Wang Xifeng!

How could Li Wan accept this?

Many grievances erupted together, and in addition to the long-suffering of lovesickness, she made a bold move of holding Sun Shaozong tightly and refusing to give up!

Bitter~

Sun Shaozong involuntarily wriggled his biceps while trying to maintain the face of a gentleman. He said with a straight face, "Sister-in-law can't say something if you don’t have any proof. I can swear to God that I have never seen Sister-in-law Lian today!"

"So, I still messed up your plan, right?"

The grudge in Li Wan's eyes was as if she had just been abandoned.

But in the conscience of heaven and earth, Sun Shaozong had at most peeked at her before, and he never did anything such as abandoning her!

Besides, others were watching. He just…

Sun Shaozong had just thought of ”others” when he saw that Suyun, who was waiting in anticipation, approached him and, like Li Wan, clung onto his other arm. Like a cat, she put a melon face on Sun Shaozong's biceps and hesitated.

The expression and tone seemed to be saying, It's a man, a man, a real living man!

Um…

How thirsty are they?!

It seemed that there was a lot of psychological pressure to be a housemaid for widows.

This was bare seduction, but this pair of beauties delivered themselves to him, was it to eat or not to eat?

Eat it. Maybe there would be some consequences.

If he leaves it…

There must be a consequence!

And if he leaves it, what was the use of his manly iron style?

What kind of face would he have to make to face the others?

Forget it~

Let him be ridiculous again!

Anyway, depending on the terrain around the yard, as long as it is not surrounded by both sides, he could surely escape safely!

At that time, in any case, what was done was done. He didn’t believe that the Master and Servant would fight for their lives and fame and die together with him!

Thinking of this, Sun Shaozong gritted his teeth and held up the rear buttocks of both the Master and Servant with his backhand. The wind rushed into the house.

He put them on the ground, then lowered his head and held Li Wan's full lips. After a long time of careful comparison with Ping’er, he said viciously, "Sister-in-law did not spoil my plan today but wanted to give me a good deed!"

He then gently pushed Suyun and said, "Go inside first, open the window, and look at the southwest path."

Suyun was still reluctant to part, but Sun Shaozong lowered his head and said something in her ear. She hurriedly ran into the back room like a rabbit.

After Li Wan's impulse, she hesitated again. Seeing Suyun go inside, she hurriedly loosened Sun Shaozong's arm, stepped back in a panic, and stammered, "I... I..."

However, at this moment, was there still something she could control?

Without saying a word, Sun Shaozong came forward and teased Li Wan until she melted with his affectionate whispering. He then pulled her to the window, slightly opened a gap, found an angle where he could see the intersection, and gave Li Wan a few words.

In the beginning, Li Wan hesitated, but when Sun Shaozong slapped her on the hip, she lowered her body tenderly and timidly, fell on the flower rack in front of the window, and tried to fold her body to 90 degrees, even 75 degrees…

It was like, based on a poem, “The cabin door opened by tapping on the small window, and I caught a glimpse of the lingering dream. There are not enough kinds of joys and sorrows. Don't be surprised to guess if plum blossoms are sleeping soundly.”
