Chapter 421: Chapter 419: I Remember You, The Flute Player_1
“Huh? How come it’s you?”
It was only at this moment that Lin Qingluo noticed the two people standing behind her maternal grandfather.
Her bright, black eyes fell on the handsome young man, and for a moment, she was taken aback. Her eyes sparkled with a hint of surprise and delight.
“I remember you, you were the one playing the flute by the riverbank.”
“For Miss Lin to remember Liuyun, it is my honor.”
Ji Liuyun’s eyebrows and eyes were gentle, his demeanor elegant and charming, making him particularly pleasing to the eye.
“Qingluo, do you know Liuyun?”
Ye Xue’e looked at the golden boy and jade girl with a smile, and her eyes brightened upon hearing this, feeling quite relieved.
“It can’t be considered as knowing each other, just having met once.”
Lin Qingluo smiled calmly and gracefully. freēnovelkiss.com
“To know each other means to have fate.”
Ye Xue’e’s smile made her eyes turn into a thin line.
“Liuyun has been talented since he was a child. He is proficient in poetry, calligraphy, and painting. You two have the opportunity to exchange ideas and attend the Poetry Appreciation Gathering together, getting to know more literati and scholars.”
“Mother, Qingluo is not interested in the Poetry Appreciation Gathering.”
Without a second thought, Lin Qingluo threw a bucket of cold water on her mother, not giving her any face.
“Ahem.”
Ye Xue’e covered her mouth with a handkerchief and coughed awkwardly, giving her daughter an annoyed look.
“But I really don’t like it.”
Lin Qingluo, having received a big eye roll from her mother, innocently shrugged.
*Puff*
Both of the scholars were amused by her innocent expression.
Ji Liuyun was gentle and elegant, his lips curled into a light laugh, while Xu Ziwei laughed out loud without any restraint.
“Is it that funny?”
Lin Qingluo drooped her eyelids, muttering to herself.
“Haha, Qingluo, come, let’s play a game of chess together, and let your grandfather see your chess skills.”
Ye Mingsheng, a shrewd old man, saw his daughter’s little thoughts at a glance. He didn’t care much, and casually laughed, changing the topic by playing chess.
The two children were still young, and there was plenty of time in the future. There was no need to be anxious for now.

Just like Ye Xue’e, the Duchess of Zhen also wanted to use the grand banquet to play matchmaker for her grandchildren.
Ever since she met Su Ziqin, the Duchess of Zhen had liked her very much and had invited her to dinner on various occasions.
She would always invite Lin Jinxu and Lin Jinzhou to join them.
Over time, some perceptive people noticed the unusual attention and playfully looked between the two brothers, wondering which grandson the old lady had her eye on in her little scheme.
Lin Jinxu and Lin Jinzhou were not fools; they saw the cunning look in their grandmother’s eyes.
From then on, they refused to attend such events.
Every time Su Ziqin visited, they would hide far away or simply use an excuse to leave the mansion, much to the old lady’s annoyance and heartache.
Lin Qingluo and Su Ziqin had a deep sisterly bond. Knowing that her sister was focused on her studies and very competitive, she didn’t want to fall behind even by half a step.
During her time in the Academy, Su Ziqin would never entertain the thought of getting engaged. So, Lin Qingluo found a suitable opportunity to speak on her sister’s behalf, dispelling their grandmother’s notion.
The old lady loved her little granddaughter to the core.
If someone else had tried to help, they would surely be drowned in the lady’s saliva.
But it was different with Lin Qingluo. With a sweet call to “Grandmother,” the old lady’s heart would be filled with joy, and her eyes brimming with love and affection. She couldn’t bear to scold her granddaughter even a little.
So, the old lady’s matchmaking plans came to an absolute end.
The Duke of Zhen’s Mansion returned to its usual tranquility.
Both Lin Jinxu and Lin Jinzhou, the two brothers, felt like they had been pardoned, and became even more grateful to their understanding little sister.

The fire in the Mental Cultivation Hall destroyed more than half of it.
The Empress was poisoned and became mentally unclear, even forgetting the events that took place that day.
