Lin Wan'er glanced at Ye Ling'er calmly, and her watery eyes did not reveal obvious emotional fluctuations.

She knew Ye Ling'er's straightforwardness and impulsiveness, and also understood that at this critical moment, arguing would only make the situation more complicated.

"Ling'er," Lin Wan'er's voice was soft and firm, as if a warm spring breeze was blowing, "The person you are talking about is Miss Si?"

Her tone revealed an unquestionable determination.

"Miss Si is a guest sincerely invited by Brother Ye, and naturally she is also my friend, Lin Wan'er. Here, there are no so-called people who are not good, only friends who treat each other with sincerity and communicate with each other sincerely."

These sincere words surprised and moved Si Lili, her eyes were moistened, and the grievances in her heart surged like a tide at this moment.

During those days in Zuixianju, although she was admired by the princes and nobles, she had never really felt such warmth.

Si Lili couldn't help but sigh in her heart. She was originally the most noble woman in the world. After being completely degraded, she was actually regarded as a friend so sincerely here. This friendship made her feel extremely precious.

Ye Ling'er was choked by Lin Wan'er's words and was speechless. She looked at the best friend in front of her who she had always thought was weak in astonishment.

She never thought that Lin Wan'er would stand up so resolutely to defend Si Lili, which shocked her.

"Wan'er..." Ye Ling'er opened her mouth, but didn't know what to say. There was a hint of embarrassment and apology in her voice, "I... I may be a little impulsive."

Lin Wan'er's brother, Lin Gong, the second son of the Prime Minister's Mansion, was also in the Lin Mansion at this moment.

He was dressed in brocade clothes, and his eyebrows revealed an extraordinary temperament.

He had heard about what happened in Niulan Street, and he knew the role of Ye Xuan in it.

Lin Gong originally thought that Ye Xuan was just an ordinary doctor, but he didn't expect that he had such courage and strength to stir up trouble in Niulan Street and even confront Chen Pingping, the director of the Inspection Institute.

This made Lin Gong realize that Ye Xuan was no ordinary person.

Although Lin Gong admired Ye Xuan's courage and strength in the Niulan Street incident, when he learned that Ye Xuan had destroyed the assassination plan of Fan Xian that he and Wu Bo'an had carefully planned, his heart was filled with an indescribable anger.

He stood in front of the window of the study. It was dusk outside, and the sky was a light orange-red, as if it was dyed red by the afterglow of the setting sun.

The number of pedestrians on the street gradually decreased, with only the occasional sound of horse hooves and whispers from pedestrians in the distance.

The tranquility outside made his heart more turbulent.

"This Chen Pingping is such a troublesome guy."

Lin Gong gritted his teeth and muttered to himself, his eyes revealing his dissatisfaction and anger towards Chen Pingping.

He originally thought that this assassination operation would successfully eliminate Fan Xian and remove a major obstacle for the family.

He carefully planned for this.plan, discussed it with Wu Bo'an many times, and even used the power of the family to support this action.

However, the appearance of Chen Pingping disrupted everything.

Lin Gong couldn't help cursing in his heart: "If Chen Pingping hadn't intervened, Cheng Jushu might have really killed Fan Xian."

He felt frustrated and helpless, as if he saw his carefully constructed plan collapse in an instant.

However, Lin Gong quickly picked up his mood, because he knew that things had come to this point, and there was no turning back. No matter what the result was, he had to continue.

The banquet started soon, and the lights were on. The whole courtyard was illuminated by the dim lights like a dream.

Lin Wan'er sat in the main seat, her posture was dignified and elegant, her face was as bright as the moon, and she exuded a gentle light.

Ye Ling'er, Ye Xuan and Si Lili sat in the second seat. Although the atmosphere between the three was a little subtle, it had eased.

At this time, Ye Ling'er had restrained her previous impulse, and her attitude towards Si Lili was obviously much gentler.

She seemed to realize her previous impulse and tried to make up for it through this banquet.

The servants of the Xiangfu were busy shuttling between the banquets, pouring wine and serving dishes for the guests.

When everything was ready, they retreated respectfully and left the entire courtyard to these distinguished guests.

In the quiet night, the breeze blew, bringing bursts of flower fragrance, as if adding a bit of poetry to the banquet.

Just then, Lin Gong walked into the banquet. He was dressed in a brocade robe and had an extraordinary temperament. There was a natural majesty between his eyebrows.

He looked at the people present with a sharp gaze and praised Ye Xuan loudly.

"Brother Ye, you are a real hero in your youth!"

Lin Gong's voice was loud and powerful.

"Your deeds in Niulan Street are really admirable. Not only are you brave and knowledgeable, but you are also very powerful. You can confront Chen Pingping, the president of the Inspection Institute. This is not something that ordinary people can do."

Ye Xuan couldn't help but look up at Lin Gong when he heard his praise.

He was secretly surprised that Lin Gong could still be so calm at this moment. Didn't he know what the failure of this assassination meant to him?

At the same time, Ye Xuan also felt a little uneasy, because he knew that Wu Zhu might have started to wait for an opportunity to move and prepare to harm Lin Gong and Wu Bo'an.

"Brother Lin, you are too kind." (To read the violent novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

Ye Xuan responded modestly.

"The situation was urgent at the time, and I just did my best. It's nothing to mention."

"Brother Ye is too polite. I admire your strength and courage."

Lin Gong said, raising his glass.

"Come, I toast you. I hope Brother Ye can achieve great things in Kyoto in the future."

The two clinked their glasses, and the crisp collision sounded particularly loud in the quiet night.

They drank it all in one gulp, as if they were celebrating the banquet.The meeting ended perfectly.

However, in this harmonious atmosphere, Ye Xuan's heart was not at peace.

From time to time, he glanced at Lin Gong, trying to read some clues from his expression.

Ye Xuan was worried that Wu Zhu would suddenly attack, and he was also worried that Lin Gong would notice his uneasiness.

But Lin Gong always had a smile on his face, as if everything was under his control.

At the same time, Fan Xian returned to Si Nanbo's mansion. It was late at night, and the lights in the mansion seemed particularly dim.

His face was ashen, and his anger and anxiety were intertwined, making his steps seem unusually heavy.

Having just experienced a life-and-death catastrophe and lost his guards, Fan Xian's heart was filled with grief and unwillingness. []

"Uncle Wu Zhu!"

Seeing Wu Zhu coming, Fan Xian couldn't help but question loudly.

"Why did you come so late? All my guards are dead, you know? I have no defense in Kyoto!"

Wu Zhu had a blank expression on his face, and his eyes, wrapped in black cloth, showed no ripples.

His voice was cold and firm: "If your strength is not enough to protect these guards, that is their fate. You should make yourself stronger instead of relying on others.".
