A Charming Dandy Chapter 1

When Simon Lu came to see Miles Wan, he was reading on the bed. The other party flipped the pages of the book very quickly, and ten lines at a glance could no longer represent the other party's reading speed.

He knew that Miles Wan's attention was not on the book, it was just too boring. There was no way to go further, so I passed the time by reading. Now I am obviously bored with books.

The reason why Miles Wan couldn't go further was simple.

Simon Lu walked to the bed, her eyes fell on Miles Wan's leg, and asked, "Is your leg injury better?"

The reason was that Miles Wan's leg was injured, and he was self-inflicted.

When Miles Wan saw Simon Lu, excitement suddenly flashed across his bored face.

"I just wanted to find someone to talk to, but I didn't expect you to come over. Simon Lu, you are indeed my good friend. I'm really touched!"

Simon Lu doesn't like Wan Xiu Sheng's tricks.

"If you are really touched and really think that I am your good friend, don't cause so much trouble. Because you are bored, you want to experience the feeling of death and jump off the tower. You will be the only fool in Caiyun Kingdom. "

Miles Wan's leg was also injured at that time. Fortunately, there was a tree next to the tower, which happened to save Wan Xiu Sheng, otherwise Wan Xiu Sheng would not have just injured his leg.

Miles Wan, who committed the tower jumping act, had no guilty conscience and no determination to correct his mistakes.

He reviewed his state of mind when jumping off the tower, and replied to Simon Lu: "Maybe it was because standing at a high place gave me a feeling of loneliness. At that time, I really felt that life was so boring, I might as well die. never mind."

When Simon Lu saw what Wan Xiu Sheng said, she stretched out her hand and poked Wan Xiu Sheng's injured leg. After hearing Wan Xiu Sheng's sound of pain, he stopped with satisfaction.

"To put it bluntly, you are too idle. When you feel that life is boring on the tower and want to jump off the tower, I am working hard at the Yushitai without thinking about anything else."

Speaking of this, Simon Lu felt a little depressed. He looked at Wan Xiu Sheng, who had the same aristocratic status as him and could be promoted to an official position even if he did not take the national examination, and asked: "Are you still not planning to become an official?"

Miles Wan stopped paying attention to the injury on his leg and nodded.

"If I become an official, I will be in Simon Lu's current working condition. It's scary to think about it."

When Simon Lu heard that even when Wan Xiu Sheng was replying, she still didn't forget to tease him, and couldn't help but fight back: "It's scary to be in such a idle state like you that you want to give up your life."

"Your parents should have heard the news by now and are ready to rush over from Huangzhou without stopping, right?"

The well-known playboy Wan Xiu jumped off the tower, which has been a hotly discussed topic in the Royal City and even Caiyun Kingdom recently.

Miles Wan did not deny it: "I asked my parents not to rush over. After all, it is not easy for them to travel back and forth."

The Wan family was originally a family in Huangzhou, and came to Zizhou a hundred years ago to develop. By the time of Miles Wan's father, based on various considerations, the Wan family had shifted its business focus from Zizhou to Huangzhou in recent years.

Wan Xiu Sheng's parents originally wanted to take Wan Xiu Sheng out of Zizhou, but Wan Xiu Sheng did not want to leave. Miles Wan, who grew up in Zizhou King City, still prefers places he is more familiar with.

"Since you know it's not easy for them to travel back and forth, don't do anything dangerous." Simon Lu advised again.

Wan Xiu Sheng was a little hurt: "Qing Ya is becoming more and more official now. Is it because of the high-intensity work at the Yushitai that makes you habitually talk about the important points directly and ignore our friendship?"

"If possible, I really want to write a letter to Mr. Kui Huangyi, the chief of Yushitai, asking Mr. Kui to be gentler to you and let Simon Lu grow up slowly."

Miles Wan did not care about the unfavorable situation that he was injured in his leg and could not escape in time, and continued to provoke Simon Lu back and forth on the edge of her sanity.

Simon Lu would not coddle Wan Xiu Sheng just because Wan Xiu Sheng was the injured one. His revenge on Wan Xiu Sheng was to continue poking the injured leg that Wan Xiu Sheng had no time to cover.

Miles Wan finally chose to surrender under Simon Lu's atrocities and apologized to Simon Lu.

After Simon Lu became an official, she became more and more indifferent. Miles Wan believed that Simon Lu's torture methods must have been learned from Yushitai.

Yushitai...

Terrible.

Miles Wan once met Kui Huangyi, the chief of Yushitai, and he was deeply impressed by his serious and unsmiling appearance.

Simon Lu works under such an officer. As time goes by, Miles Wan believes that his best friend will also become the next Kui Huangyi.

The environment really affects people.

As a sweetheart, Miles Wan thought that he needed to save Simon Lu so that she would not be so stern and expressionless.

He wanted the other party to be exposed to more lively occasions, so he asked the other party if he wanted to attend the banquet the day after tomorrow.

"What kind of banquet?" Simon Lu asked.

Miles Wan answered truthfully that it was his visit party.

"Many people heard that I was injured and wanted to come see me. I thought about it, and they came to see me one after another. It was a waste of time and not lively. So I just held a visitation banquet, which not only allowed them to see my injury, but also Have some fun."

Simon Lu frowned slightly, speechless at Wan Xiu Sheng's suggestion.

"You really like parties."

"Hmm, not bad."

"Then just be the monkey being watched. I won't accompany you."

He didn't want to attend a party like that.

It's just that Wan Xiu Sheng is so boring that he would be dishonest and cause trouble for himself when he was recuperating.

Simon Lu glanced at Wan Xiu Sheng's legs again. Maybe the other person’s leg will take a long time to heal.

No, not maybe.

One winter, Miles Wan traveled to Heizhou, an extremely cold place, and injured his arm. According to Miles Wan, he fell while skiing.

It won't be better until spring.

The reason is not that Miles Wan's ability to repair injuries is worse than others, nor is it that his injury is really serious.

But Wan Xiu Sheng's consciousness of following the doctor's orders was very poor. He always likes to walk around with his injured hand, and during this period he also does some dangerous things and stumbles, which makes the recovery of his arm injury very slow.

When Miles Wan heard Simon Lu say this, he exclaimed.

"I'm not a monkey."

What responded to Miles Wan was Simon Lu's leaving figure. He has refused to talk to Wan Xiu Sheng.

Miles Wan finally found someone to chat with, but the person left again: ...

Is friendship something so easily broken?

＊

"Friendship is not something that can be broken easily." Ella Hong, who was called into the carriage by Wan Xiu Sheng and offered to give her a ride, answered Wan Xiu Sheng's doubts.

"You must have said too much, which made the other party not want to hear it, so he left."

Miles Wan was shocked: "I didn't expect you would say that, Ella Hong! Is it because I'm not friendly enough?"

Ella Hong thought for a moment and said: "From the perspective of you hiring me to make money, I think you are very friendly."

"What a realistic analysis." Wan Xiu Sheng sighed, looking from Ella Hong to the outside of the carriage curtain.

"The streets outside are really lively. I really want to go for a walk."

Ella Hong looked at Wan Xiu Sheng's leg and said, "Your current leg injury should be suitable for resting at home."

"But haven't I come out yet?" Miles Wan praised his strength and emphasized: "The royal city cannot survive without me."

What a very narcissistic young master.

Ella Hong complained secretly. But this young master is generous, talented, and charitable...

Just listen to what the other person says.

"I'll leave it to you to be the maid for the banquet." Miles Wan suddenly changed the subject and mentioned the focus of finding Ella Hong today.

There were not many maids in Wan Xiu Sheng's mansion, so if she wanted to hold a banquet, she would need a smart assistant.

Red beauty is very suitable.

Although the other party's surname is Hong and he is a member of the Hong family, one of the seven Cai families that should not be underestimated, but for some reasons, the Hong family where Ella Hong belongs is currently as if it has stepped down from the spotlight and no one cares about it.

Due to lack of money, Ella Hong went out to work early.

Miles Wan also met each other by chance. He originally thought that the other party was just a good erhu player, but he did not expect that Ella Hong was also very knowledgeable, and while working around, she also went to a Taoist temple to teach children to read.

Ella Hong is a rare and strange woman.

"It would be great if women could take the national examination." Wan Xiu Sheng sighed inexplicably, "A meticulous person like you is really suitable to contribute to the court."

Ella Hong was startled by what Wan Xiu Sheng said.

"Are you kidding me?"

"How can women be allowed to take part in the national examination?"

"This is not a joke." Miles Wan said seriously, "I just made a conclusion based on the situation in recent years. Gender is not important at all. What Caiyun Country needs is people who think about Caiyun Country."

"The current king does not go to court all day long, which is really annoying."

Ella Hong had the same view as Miles Wan on the issue of the king not going to court.

"That king is a fool."

Wan Xiu Sheng's eyes slightly curved and he applauded Ella Hong's conclusion.

"I wish you could say it to his face."

"Do you want me killed?"

"You probably won't be killed. The king will most likely think you are special."

Ella Hong clenched her fists and said, "Don't use the story you wrote to substitute reality."

"Many of the stories I wrote are based on reality."

"I prefer the more realistic "Farming Diary" you wrote."

Miles Wan blinked, admiring Ella Hong's pragmatism. People who don't like sentimental love stories but value pastoral life are in short supply for the imperial court. People who are pragmatic and not tied down by emotions are really in short supply.

But if she enters the imperial court, Ella Hong will probably become like Simon Lu, no, like Simon Lu's chief officer Kui Huangyi.

Is that a good thing or a bad thing?

Seeing that Miles Wan didn't say anything, Ella Hong asked him what he was thinking about.

"I wonder when my legs will heal."

"As long as you don't mess with it, it will heal quickly."

She had heard about Wan Xiu's promotion to the jumping tower. To be honest, she didn't understand Miles Wan's words "I felt bored, so I jumped."

Jinglan said Miles Wan was a fool and asked her to stay away from him.

Ella Hong didn't think Wan Xiu Sheng was an idiot. After all, idiots don’t write so many books and do so many amazing things. On the contrary, Miles Wan is very smart, but maybe there is only a piece of paper separating genius and fool.

The reason why Wan Xiu jumped into the tower was probably because the piece of paper was torn.
