Pei Lang hesitated for a moment before raising his cup. He had a strange feeling about drinking with this student of his in the restaurant…
“I wish you a bright future.” Shen Miao smiled and finished the wine in one gulp. She drank very quickly, and a trace of wine flowed out of the corner of her mouth, crossing her slightly sharp chin and entering her collar.
Pei Lang looked away. He was not a person who liked to linger his eyes on beauties, but for a moment, he felt that something was very wrong.
A trace of joy flashed across Shen Miao’s eyes. Pei LIang was the state preceptor who could decide Fu Ming’s life and death in her previous life, but now, he was just a puppet.
However, that joy only lasted for a moment.
When Pei Lang agreed, she knew that there was no need to continue staying here.

After soberness returned, she stood up and raised her chin slightly, returning to the slightly dignified Shen Miao.
“After Miss Liu Ying settles down, I will tell you where the embroidery shop is.” Shen Miao nodded. “The bill has been paid. Sir, please take your time to drink. Wine from Qi Lu is rare in the capital.”
Pei Lang frowned as he looked at the group of people disappearing from sight.
He picked up the wine and took a sip. It was supposed to be a mellow wine, but it was strangely sour in his mouth.
After walking out of the door, Jingzhe and Gu Yu did not dare to speak. The two of them could tell that Shen Miao was in a bad mood at this moment. They were confused by the conversation between Pei Lang and Shen Miao, but they were sensitive enough to realize that it wasn’t a small matter, so they did not dare to speak rashly.
After the cold wind blew past her, the blush on Shen Miao’s face dissipated. She closed her eyes. When she opened them again, her eyes were cold.
In the end, she still hated Pei Lang for standing by and doing nothing to save her children back then. No matter how she hid it, she still revealed a trace of hatred.
However, her goal was achieved.
“Back to the mansion.” She walked towards the carriage.

In the hidden room adjacent to the private room where Shen Miao was, the few people were silent.
Just now, they were engrossed in watching the show. Now that Shen Miao was gone, they came back to their senses and were shocked.
Ji Yushu swallowed his saliva. As if he wanted to break the silence, he said, “It’s really a good thing to be close to the shopkeeper of this restaurant. At least we get to eavesdrop on conversations. Not only can we listen, but we can also watch. Hehe, isn’t that good?”
However, after Ji Yushu finished speaking, the other two people in the room did not respond to him. Gao Yang placed his folding fan under his chin. This was what he usually did when he was deep in thought. Xie Jingxing leaned his head against his elbow and played with the teacup in his hand while lowering his eyes to think.
Unable to stand the atmosphere, Ji Yushu spoke again. “Don’t be so quiet. What’s so shocking about Pei Lang being the son of Magistrate Pei?”
Shen Miao’s story was told casually because she firstly believed that Pei Lang could understand it, which was why it came as such a shock to the three of them.
Magistrate Pei had a son and a daughter. The daughter was Liu Ying, and the son was Pei Lang. On the way to escape, in order to protect Pei Lang, the servents, as instructed by their master, abandoned Liu Ying, and she eventually became a prostitute. Under the arrangement of the Pei family, Pei Lang obtained a new identity as someone who was born in the capital and whose parents had died years ago, leaving him alone in this world.
No one had discovered his real background all these years.
However… Xie Jingxing’s lips curled into a strange smile and he said, “How did she know something that even All Knowing Scholar doesn’t?”
At the end of his sentence, his voice turned cold, and his eyes were filled with killing intent.
