449: Unhappy?

449: Unhappy?

Editor: Exodus Tales  看到发话的人,薛意轻轻道:”是廉贞公子.” “It is gentleman Lianzhen.” Xue Yi said after seeing him walking towards Dai Jingyu and Lu Minghshu.

许先生之前并未亲见,此时看到谢廉贞,不免在心中评估一番,暗暗可惜.

This is the first time Sir Xu have met Xie Lianzhen.

He scanned him and sigh in lament.

当初王妃选亲,薛意也是人选之一.薛家这一代,其他子弟资质平平,独薛意人才出众,薛家怎么肯将她赔出去?当然是装聋作哑了.还好王妃的第一目标是凌无瑕,他们跟在后头不显眼.

When the Queen was choosing Xie Lianzhen’s spouse, Xue Yi was one of the choices.

In her generation, she is the only outstanding one in the Xue family.

Thus, why would the Xue family be willing to sell her out?

They pretended to know nothing about the situation and hide behind the cover of Ling Wuxia, her most desired choice’s absence from the Qilin Festival.

这会儿,许先生倒有些后悔了.若早知道谢廉贞腿疾能好,又有这般机缘,当初应了那门亲就省事了.可惜千金难买早知道,事已至此,后悔不得.

After meeting Xie Lianzhen, Sir Xu is starting to regret his choices.

~If we knew Xie Lianzhen would be able to recover and there would be such a matter, that marriage would be a good choice, we would not be facing so many problems now.

But what can we do?

There’s nothing we can do to salvage bad decisions.~  薛意对这位廉贞公子的感觉很复杂.

On the other hand, Xue Yi do not know what to feel about Gentleman Lianzhen.

当初王妃往薛家递过话,她的第一想法就是可笑.凌无瑕不应,难道她就会应吗?薛家是不如玉鼎峰家大业大,但她薛意也是同代中排得上号的人物,为何要屈就一位瘸腿公子?薛家还没有没落到要用她来换取王妃垂青的地步.

Back then when the Queen sent a messenger over to pass the message, she felt that it was ridiculous.

~What makes you think that I would agree if Ling Wuxia doesn’t?

The Xue family might not be as wealthy as the Ancient Jade Summit, but I’m considered as an elite in among the middle-class sect too, so why should I go under someone who has a physical disability?

Furthermore, the Xue family is not in that situation that they need to exchange me for the Queen support.~   后来,廉贞公子失踪,而她在父亲的安排下,招了同门一位师兄为婿.

Soon after, Gentleman Lianzhen went missing, and under her father’s arrangement, she wed her senior brother.

师兄各方面都不错,对她也好,没什么可挑剔的.既然决定做薛家下一任执掌,她就没想过在婚事上任性.

Her senior brother is better than average in all aspects and treats her well.

Thus Xue Yi is contented with what she has.

Furthermore, she’s going to take over the Xue family thus she is not going to dwell too much on her marriage.

这次来天海阁,是她第一次见到谢廉贞,这才发现传言不实.

In the Heavenly Sea Pavillion, is her first time meeting Xie Lianzhen.

She then realised that all rumours are untrue.

这位廉贞公子,显然一点也不草包.无论相貌风采,修为举止,都是上上之选.

This Gentleman Lianzhen is not as useless as they said.

From his looks to his cultivation, he is the best of the best.

那些名门小姐们叽叽喳喳地讨论着,她却一言不发.

Upon his appearance, the misses from other famous sects and aristocratic family is in a heated discussion, but she remained silent about it.

她当然不至于只凭这远远一眼,就生出什么心思来.只是,心里有瞬间的松动,也就是那句话:当初要是去天运城亲眼看过,也许今天就不用这么麻烦了.

Of course, she’s not infatuated with Gentleman Lianzhen just with this glance.

She only can’t help but feel a slight regret.

~If I went to Tianyun City to have a look back then, I would be able to save this trouble.”   另一边,戴静予听到旁人插话,勉力撑起身,往旁边看去.

On the other hand, Dai Jingyu looked up upon hearing somebody cutting in.

却见半塌的砖墙后,站着个年轻公子,似笑非笑,手中握扇,有一下没一下地敲着手心.

She could see a young gentleman standing behind the wall that is already half-collapsed, playing around with his fan and smiling at her thinly.

这身装扮,又出现在这里,戴静予不用猜也知道是谁,冷冷道:”这是我与陆明舒之间的事,廉贞公子管得太多了吧?” With his dressing and the position he is standing at, why would Dai Jingyu not guess who is it?

“This is between me and Lu Mingshu’s matter, isn’t Gentleman Lianzhen being too busybody?”   谢廉贞的目光在废墟上遛了一圈:”戴姑娘说的好没道理,你们动手,将我的住处给拆了,还不许我说话?你们天海阁待客可真是…”摇了摇头,一副很可惜的样子.

Xie Lianzhen looked around the ruins and smiled thinly.

“Miss Dai, but you have torn down my guest house during your fight, why can’t I speak up?

The way Heavenly Sea Pavillion treats their guest is really…” He shook his head as if he is lamenting.

戴静予要吐血!这里是天海阁,她是主,谢廉贞是客,她让着对方是应该.但,刚刚在这么多人面前丢了面子,还要被谢廉贞嘲讽,她岂能甘愿?

Dai Jingyu felt like vomiting blood.

This is the Heavenly Sea Pavillion, the sect that she belongs to.

As the master, she should give in to her guest, Xie Lianzhen.

But how happy can she be when she has already embarrassed herself in front of many and yet Xie Lianzhe is humiliating her right now?

“此事过后,自当向公子赔罪,但一码归一码…” “I’ll sure apologize to gentleman after this, but that’s a horse of a different colour…”   谢廉贞叹了口气,同情地看着她:”戴姑娘,难道你看不出来,我这是为你好吗?” Xie Lianzhen sighed, looking at her pitifully.

“Miss Dai, can’t you tell that I’, doing all this for you?”   他这人,在别人面前演惯了,戴静予被他一看,不免心下一动,跟着他的话题跑了:”什么?” Being an excellent actor, Dai Jingyu can’t help but feel butterflies in her stomach upon meeting his eyes.

“What?”   “是你要上门赔罪,也是你先向她请教,可你又打不过她.事情到了这步,你认栽也就好了,再继续较劲下去,丢的脸面只会更多.” “You are the one who approached Miss Lu to sent your apology and initiates this fight.

Since things have turned this way, you should only admit to your defeat.

The more you say, the more humiliating you would be.”   戴静予一怔,勃然大怒:”谢廉贞!” Dai Jingyu blinked her eyes.

When she has digested Xie Lianzhen words, she blew up.

“Xie Lianzhen!”   “难道我说的没有道理?”谢廉贞才不会生气,笑眯眯地看着她,”戴姑娘,你好歹也是天海阁十大弟子,眼下什么局面,你不懂?陆姑娘愿意给你面子,你笑笑也就过去了.以后说起来,大家还会说你们不打不相识,非要这么较真,到底损失的会是谁?” “Am I wrong?” Xie Lianzhen said, smiling at her.

Why would he get angry.

“Miss Lu, you are one of the Top Ten disciples in the Heavenly Sea Pavillion, I am sure you know what’s going on right now.

Since Miss Lu is willing to give you face, then let it go!

At least in the future, others would say that you made friends with a fight.

Being so serious, will only bring somebody loss.”   “你…” “You…”   “静予!”一声清喝,打断了戴静予的话,她满腔的怒火发不出来,都被堵在了胸口.

“Jingyu!” A shout could be heard, cutting Dai Jingyu off.

She bit her lips, leaving all the angry but unsaid words in her chest.

一转头,发现是寇威来了,戴静予本是极刚强的人,此时看到寇威,竟眼睛一红,险些落下泪来,唤出来的声音也带了几分委屈:”寇师兄.” It’s Kou Wei.

Dai Jingyu is an extremely strong person, but seeing Kou Wei, her eyes turned watery and tears rolled down her cheeks.

“Senior brother Kou.” She sounded extremely sad.

寇威翩然而至,对两人抱了抱拳,说道:”廉贞公子,陆姑娘,真是抱歉,静予向来好强,说话做事有欠考虑,此番是她无礼,我代她向两位道歉.” Kou Wei stepped forward and bowed to both Xie Lianzhen and Lu Mingshu.

“Gentleman Lianzhen and Miss Lu, I’m really sorry.

Jingyu is a girl who loves to win too much, so she says anything she can in an argument.

I apologize for her rudeness.”   看到寇威,谢廉贞无趣地挥挥扇子:”向我道歉作甚?她又没对不起我.” Xie Lianzhen fanned himself, uninterested in what Kou Wei is saying.

“Why apologize to me?

She did not do anything wrong to me.”   寇威笑笑,对陆明舒俯身一揖,再次道歉:”陆姑娘,对不住了.” Kou Wei smiled thinly and turned to Lu Mingshu, apologizing once again.

“I’m sorry, Miss Lu.”   陆明舒淡淡道:”无妨,小事而已,我本没有放在心上,倒是多谢戴姑娘指教,令我见识了天海阁的秘技.” “Nevermind.

It’s not a big deal.” She said calmly.

“I do not put it on my heart.

I am even thankful for Miss Dai, she has introduced me to the Heavenly Sea Pavillion’s stunts.”   她面无表情,说这句话,也分不清是真心还是嘲讽.

She said it without emotion.

One is unable to tell if she’s being genuine or sarcastic.

寇威脸上的笑顿了顿,只能当做听不出来:”多谢陆姑娘宽宏大量.” Kou Wei smile faded, but he plastered it back fast, acting as if he heard nothing.

“Thank you, Miss Lu, for being generous.”   他这么道歉,戴静予却不满了:”寇师兄!” However, Dai Jingyu is unhappy that he had apologized to Lu Mingshu.

“Senior brother Kou!”   没等她说话,寇威突然面色一寒,冷声道:”够了!你要还认我是你师兄,就给我闭嘴!” Before she could continue, Kou Wei turned to him sternly.

“Enough!

Shut up if you still take me as your senior brother!”   这句话,足可以说是疾言厉色.寇威向来风度翩翩,无论是谁,都笑脸迎人,戴静予愣了下,心中不免更委屈了:”你…” This can be said that Kou Wei was really angry.

Kou Wei has always met people with all smiles.

Dai Jingyu felt even wronged and tears welled up her eyes.

“You…”   寇威没有安慰她,冷冷道:”其他事日后再提,先向陆姑娘道歉.” But Kou Wei ignored her.

“Apologize to Miss Lu first before anything.”   戴静予咬咬牙,勉强低了低头:”陆姑娘,是我失礼了.” Dai Jingyu gritted her teeth and bowed down unwillingly.

“Miss Lu, sorry for being rude.”   陆明舒神情淡漠,一言不发.既没说谅解,也没有继续为难.

Lu Mingshu stared at her calmly, saying nothing.

She did not forgive her, nor did she not let her off.

寇威只得没话找话:”陆姑娘不知,这事其实是我的错.当日之事,是我与戴师妹失礼了,故而命戴师妹前来向姑娘赔罪.却是我没料准戴师妹的性子,反倒令她冒犯了你.还请你…” This gave Kou Wei no other choice but to continue.

“Miss Lu, this is actually my mistake.

The previous day, it was me and Juniorsister’s Dai’s fault.

I have sent her to make an apology to you but who knows of my Junior nior Sister’s bad temper, she had offended you.

Please…”   陆明舒突然一挥手,止住了他的话,说道:”今日之事,到此为止,不必再提.不过,我有一句话,不止要对戴姑娘说.” Lu Mingshu held up a hand, stopping him.

“Whatever.

Let bygones be bygones.

But I have something for everyone, not just Miss Dai.”   寇威点了点头:”姑娘请说.” “Please, Miss.” Kou Wei nodded.

陆明舒抬起头,扫向四周,沉声道:”你们心中在想什么,大家都知道.想要试探也好,灭我威风也罢,要来,我只管接着!” Lu Mingshu looked up, glancing around.

“I know what are all of you thinking about.

Test me if you want, or kill me if you wish.

Just come at me and I’ll take the challenge!”   周围顿时一静.

The crowd turned silent immediately.

陆明舒这句话是对谁说的,大家心里都清楚.

Everyone is aware of who this is directed to.

许先生低嘲一声,道:”这个陆明舒,真是够嚣张的.” Sir Xu shook his head.

“This Lu Mingshu.

Arrogant.” He said softly.

这是对他们所有人宣战啊!

She’s picking a fight with all of them!

薛意点点头:”也罢,反正我不惹她.”也是惹不起.

Xue Yi nodded.

“Whatever, I would not go on her bad side anyway.” ~I can’t afford to offend her too.

~  寇威勉强一笑:”抱歉,是我们招呼不周.” Kou Wei forced a smiled.

“I’m sorry.

It’s our fault.”   事到如今,这客院是没法住了,寇威召来管事,令他另行安排住处.又连声道歉,最后才带着戴静予离开.

The guest courtyard is no longer able to hold people anymore.

Thus he arranged another place for them to stay.

He apologized again before leaving with Dai Jingyu.

此事就这么结束了,但在众人心里的影响不止于此.不知有多少人,开始重新评估.

The matter is closed, but it left a deep impression in many’s heart.

Who knows how many is re analyzing Lu Mingshu’s ability?

寇威带着戴静予,一路沉默着回到岛中.

Kou Wei brought Dai Jingyu back to the island.

On their way back, they said nothing.

挥退侍从,他当即关切地问:”戴师妹,你没事吧?” When there is nobody around, he immediately went up to her.

“Junior sister Dai, are you alright?”   戴静予脸色苍白,但神情已恢复冷静,说道:”无妨,只是要养上一阵子了,寿宴那日,恐怕无法出席,还请寇师兄代我向太师叔祖赔罪.” Dai Jingyu is extremely pale, but she seems to be at a better state now.

“I’m okay.

I’ll need some rest, and I am afraid that I may not be able to make it during the celebration.

Please apologize to the Great senior uncle for me.”   寇威温和地笑笑:”此事是我欠戴师妹一个人情,叫师妹白白受伤,说不定还坏了名声.” Kou Wei smiled warmly.

“I owe Junior sister Dai this.

I even made junior sister injured and maybe ruined your reputation.”   戴静予笑了笑:”名声身外事,能帮上师兄就好.何况,这也是我天海阁的事,我为之尽力,是应该的.” Dai Jingyu shook her head.

“Reputation is not that important.

It’s alright if I could help Senior Brother out.

And the HEavenly Sea Pavillion’s matter is mine too.

It’s my job to work hard for the sect.”
