I'm competing with the male lead for a woman[GL]

Chapter 97: Please come in

All night long, Xiao Jin tossed and turned, but couldn't fall asleep. Thoughts constantly churned in her mind, sometimes thinking of the information Ye Juege had mentioned, and other times thinking of unfinished tasks. Until the sky was bright, the last thing that remained in her mind was Chu Shao standing under the moonlight with a smiling expression.

Xiao Jin took a deep breath, closed her eyes, and opened them again. The figure of Chu Shao still lingered in her mind. Nevertheless, Xiao Jin had to gather her thoughts and accept that it was time to get up.

Unexpectedly, just as Yin Zhu was putting on her clothes, Ye Suyu pushed the door open and entered, dismissing all the maidservants before whispering, "Your Highness, the people from the Blood Rain Pavilion have arrived."

Xiao Jin looked at the jade belt tied around her waist, and her brow twitched. Suppressing the urge to kill Ye Suyu every day, she asked in a calm voice, "Who is it that has come?"

Ye Suyu recalled the attire of the person and replied, "A white robe, a jade crown on his head, a half-mask on his face, and a folding fan in his hand."

Listening to Ye Suyu's description, Xiao Jin could roughly guess who it was. "Doesn't he look like a carefree and elegant person, just like a follower of the refined and popular style?" she asked.

Ye Suyu looked surprised and praised, "Your Highness guessed accurately. It seems that you have a deep impression of this person."

"Yes, after all, he is a fan of Wang Anshi," Xiao Jin's tone was indifferent.

Ye Suyu narrowed his eyes and didn't understand what Xiao Jin was talking about.

Xiao Jin didn't care whether the other person understood or not. She just touched the jade belt that was still untied around her waist, then raised her head and glanced at Ye Suyu, who was still standing there.

Xioa Jin couldn't help but frown.

She had already hinted at this point, why wasn't she planning to leave?

Ye Suyu didn't understand Xiao Jin's hint, but she noticed that Xiao Jin was completely indifferent to the people from the Blood Rain Pavilion. So she asked in confusion, "Your Highness, you have already refused the Blood Rain Pavilion many times, are you still not planning to see them this time?"

Seeing that her hint was ineffective, Xiao Jin gave up. She reached out and picked up her outer robe from the chair, putting it on casually, and said indifferently, "I have already refused many times. It doesn't matter if I refuse this time. Besides, if the Blood Rain Pavilion is only trying to exchange for Shen Lan, there's no need for them to persist and deal with us like this."

Ye Suyu was quick-witted and immediately heard the implied meaning, "So Your Highness's meaning is that... the Blood Rain Pavilion probably has other goals besides exchanging for Shen Lan?"

Xiao Jin put on her outer robe and nodded, "That's probably it. Since the Blood Rain Pavilion has a request for us, why should I take the initiative to see them? Let them come find us in a few hours."

Xiao Jin's speculation was reasonable. After all, Shen Lan was gone, but the Blood Rain Pavilion still had Shen Lang.

The Vice Master of the Blood Rain Pavilion didn't seem like someone who valued loyalty and righteousness. The organization's actions were mostly motivated by self-interest. If the Blood Rain Pavilion had no other requests, they wouldn't have been entangled for so long.

This is what Xiao Jin thought, and Ye Suyu's eyes changed quietly as she looked at her. It was like when people go to the temple to ask for divination.

Ye Suyu smiled and asked, "Your Highness is so good at predicting things, do you know why the Blood Rain Pavilion came here and what their purpose is?"
