ARDA - Chapter 167 - Was Seen

 Jiang Minglan was poured several glasses of wine by his classmates. He was so drunk that his head was dizzy and his whole body felt hot.

He struggled to get up and went outside to enjoy the breeze to dissipate the smell of alcohol from his body.

After blowing the cold wind, he feels a little sober.

Jiang Minglan was about to return and tell his classmates he would leave. He could not stay here any longer. If his mother or sister knew about it, they would definitely be disappointed in him.

He turned around and prepared to go back.

At this moment, he saw a woman walking by not far away, her face covered with a veil, and her appearance could not be seen clearly.

But the moment he saw the woman, Jiang Minglan realized that she was the one from earlier.

That woman who looks like Jiang Mengyue.

He followed her involuntarily, wanting to confirm whether it was Jiang Mengyue. 

Because Jiang Minglan was drunk, her steps were shallow and deep, and he couldn't walk in a straight line.

It took a lot of effort to catch up with the woman.

"Jiang Mengyue?" He shouted uncertainly.

The woman walking in front froze, her movements visible to the naked eye stiffened, and she did not turn around.

Jiang Minglan walked over step by step, and the more he looked at her, the more he felt that the person in front of him looked like Jiang Mengyue. How could he not recognize her back after living under the same roof for more than ten years.

The moment she was stopped by a familiar voice, Jiang Mengyue's whole body stiffened. Her whole body seemed to have been struck by lightning, and she was stunned in place.

Jiang Minglan...

Why is he here?

Why did it happen that she met someone from the Marquis Mansion?

Jiang Mengyue's body was stiff and her scalp was numb. The person behind her was approaching step by step. She clenched her fists. Her identity could not be revealed in this place. Her return to the capital needed to be kept secret and the Marquis Mansion should not find out.

She walked forward quickly, preparing to leave this place.

Jiang Minglan was chasing after her, and he had to confirm with his own eyes whether she was Jiang Mengyue.

In the end, the two of them started running.

Jiang Mengyue was a woman. How could she outrun Jiang Minglan? He caught up within a few steps.

Jiang Minglan grabbed her arm, "Is it you?"

Jiang Mengyue was shocked, no, she must not be discovered, she began to struggle hard, "You have recognized the wrong person, what do you want to do, why don't you let go!"

Jiang Minglan was drunk. At this moment, he was so drunk that his mind was muddled.

The sounds in his ears were distant and close, and the person in front of him were getting older and smaller, with several figures overlapping each other.

"Are you Jiang Mengyue..."

"Let me see..." As he said that, he reached out and pulled off Jiang Mengyue's veil.

Jiang Mengyue's eyes widened in shock. What's worse, her face was seen.

She felt cold all over, and a vicious thought flashed across her body. She could not let Jiang Minglan go back. If she let him go, the Marquis Mansion would know that she was in the capital.

She is just a weak woman, and she cannot let anyone know that she is in the capital before clinging to the crown prince.

Jiang Minglan felt that her eyes were blurry. She had clearly torn off the woman's veil, but she could not see her face clearly.

He was drunk and his mind was buzzing.

He shook his head heavily and looked carefully at the person in front of him, "Who are you..."

Jiang Mengyue panicked, but when she smelled the smell of alcohol on Jiang Minglan's body, her heart slowly calmed. 

"Do you know who I am?"

She asked in a low voice, staring into Jiang Minglan's eyes.

Jiang Minglan looked confused and shook his head in pain, "You, who are you..."

Jiang Mengyue raised the corners of her lips, and her eyes flashed coldly. Her stupid third brother... If one were to ask who hurt her the most in the Marquis Mansion, that person must have been Jiang Minglan.

The third brother who was once well-behaved and obedient, the third brother who doted on her...

But she was coaxed into turning against her by that dog woman Jiang Ning. He didn't even listen to her explanation and kicked her so hard that she can still remember the pain in her stomach.

Jiang Mengyue's eyes flashed with hatred, and she raised her hand to caress Jiang Minglan's face.

The other hand pulled the hairpin from her head and held it tightly in her hand.

"Third brother..." she shouted softly, her face as cold as ice.

At this moment, several of Jiang Minglan's classmates came out and shouted, "Minglan, where are you going? Don't run away in the middle, come back soon..."

"Let's go, let's bring him back!"

Several men came here.

When Jiang Mengyue saw several men approaching, her face changed slightly, and she immediately turned around and ran away.

Jiang Minglan felt dizzy and wanted to chase after her.

But after running for two steps, he staggered and his left foot almost tripped his right foot.

"Minglan, where are you going? We won't allow you to run away in the middle... Let's take a walk and have two more drinks!" Several classmates took him back.

"Who was that woman just now? You kid actually came out to hook up with a woman..."

"Where is the person? Why is she missing?"

When they came over, they found that the woman who was flirting with Jiang Minglan had left, and they couldn't see who the woman was.

Jiang Minglan was so drunk that he fell into unconsciousness and was sent back to the Marquis Mansion.

He slept for a whole day and didn't get up until in the morning the next day.

Jiang Minglan sat up, with a splitting headache and some vague memories, "What's wrong with me..."

A male servant came in when he heard the commotion, poured a cup of tea, and brought it over, "Master, you finally woke up. You went to Flower Garden and got very drunk, so you were sent back."

"Flower Garden?"

Jiang Minglan murmured, as if he did have this memory.

Wait, there seems to be something important, but he can't remember it no matter how hard he thinks about it.

"Why can't I remember anything..." he murmured.

The male servant was not surprised, "Young master, you don't know your drinking capacity. You can get drunk with just one glass of wine, let alone drink so much... Oh, don't trouble yourself anymore."

Jiang Minglan frowned, as if he had really forgotten something important.

He took the tea cup and drank it in one gulp.

At this time, a memory suddenly flashed through my mind, that of a woman wearing a veil.

He couldn't help but be startled.

"I seem to have seen a woman..."

The male servant shook his head, "Master, you not only saw one woman, but also many! What is Flower Garden? How could there be no women..."

Jiang Minglan frowned, and his intuition told him that it was not that simple. What he saw was definitely not an ordinary woman. Who was the woman wearing the veil...

Another place.

Jiang Mengyue felt restless and paced back and forth nervously.

Although Jiang Minglan had a bad drinking capacity and was very drunk, but... what if he remembered her appearance?

At that time, her veil was pulled off and Jiang Minglan saw her.

It would be bad if Jiang Minglan remembered it.

Jiang Mengyue clenched her fists, her eyes flashing coldly.
