At the gate of the West City, a group of officers and soldiers stood guard in strict formation. Pedestrians coming and going must be strictly scrutinized.

Qingfeng stepped forward and showed a sign.

When the interrogating soldiers saw this, they hurriedly bowed their hands and gave way to the passage.

Xia Qianqian opened the car curtains and looked out.

Today's Jiangcheng Street has significantly fewer pedestrians than before.

In restaurants and teahouses, the number of guests also dropped sharply.

From time to time, bursts of discussion can be heard from the vendors coming and going.

Listen carefully, it's all about Feng Wei.

Li Yunniang grabbed Xia Qianqian's sleeve and said nervously: "Have you heard any news about your father?"

Xia Qianqian shook her head, "Mom, let's go home first, and I'll go find out more."

Li Yunniang nodded obediently and hugged Yuanbao into her arms, looking panicked.

The carriage traveled smoothly. When passing by Juwang Tower, the carriage slowed down.

Geng Zhong's cold voice came from outside the car window, "Girl, the young master is waiting for you upstairs."

"Stop."

Xia Qianqian turned her head and told Li Yunniang, "Mom, stay at home and don't run around. I will go home immediately after I get the news."

"I will listen to you in everything." Li Yunniang nodded solemnly and added, "Remember, when there is news about your father, you must notify me as soon as possible."

"Okay."

Xia Qianqian quickly got off the carriage and watched it leave, then turned back and went to Juwang Tower.

Shopkeeper Qiao welcomed her to the second floor and personally delivered her to the door of the private room.

Opening the door, a man in white brocade clothes was sitting at the table in front of the window, with six plates of exquisite pastries placed on the table.

A pot of tea is boiling, and the aroma of tea rises. Under the mist, his profile looks more and more extraordinary.

"Back." He stood up and stepped forward, naturally holding her hand and leading her to the table.

"Have you eaten?" Since the relationship between the two was made clear, the most common question he asked her when he saw her was whether she was hungry.

"No!" She pursed her lips.

I rushed to Fu'an Village early in the morning, went up a mountain in the middle, and had a verbal exchange with Xia Chengan.

Afterwards, she went down the mountain and was worried about the situation in the city, so she hurried back with her mother and Yuanbao.

She truly has no food in her belly.

"Sit down and eat quickly!"

He took the first step and sat down, then pulled her into his arms and let her sit on his lap.

"This..."

Xia Qianqian exclaimed, her face suddenly burning up.

When he raised his head, a look of pride flashed through his beautiful eyes.

This person is really always thinking about how to tease her.

However, who is she? She comes from another open world, and she has never seen anything in the world.

Stretching out his hands, soft arms hugged his neck. He raised the corners of his mouth, smiled playfully, and said in a long tone: "Do you miss me so much?"

"Yeah!" She was so enthusiastic that he couldn't adapt to it for a while.

"Boo!" She took the initiative and placed a light kiss on the corner of his lips.

His lips were warm, maybe because he drank tea just now, and there was a faint scent of tea on his lips.

Xia Qianqian pursed her lips and smiled, "Your lips smell so good."

She spoke seriously, never forgetting to tap his lips with her fingers, once, twice, three times... Then she rubbed it gently and murmured: "Taste it, it seems like you are not so hungry anymore."<

/p>

She flirted with him on purpose.

The young man in front of him was obviously stunned by her out-of-bounds words.

He was stunned at first, then looked ecstatic when he came to his senses, and then couldn't help but lower his head and peck her a few times.

After a few pecks, he became increasingly uncontrollable and deepened the kiss.

"Woooooooo..." Xia Qianqian couldn't breathe.

A young man who knows nothing about anything, simple and ascetic.

Once you get the hang of it, it will be almost overwhelming.

She slapped his shoulders quickly with both hands, "Wait, wait..."

He raised his head, his eyes filled with emotion and excitement.

Xia Qianqian felt timid for the first time because of her seductive behavior just now.

She smiled awkwardly, "On the street, everyone was talking about Feng Wei's escape."

This sentence is a good medicine for cooling down the temperature.

Ji Zimo slowly closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, his expression returned to normal, "He is under control."

"That's good."

Xia Qianqian wanted to get away from his lap, "I'm going to sit on the stool and eat."

"No, I'll feed you."

While she was struggling, he pushed her back again.

He stretched out his long arm, stuck a piece of pastry on his slender white fingers, handed it to her mouth, and whispered: "Here, eat."

"This way, the pastry crumbs will be scattered on the clothes."

He is a bit of a germaphobe, and his white robe is always spotless.

"No problem!"

The crisp pastry touched her lips, and the scent of peach blossoms and glutinous rice filled her nose, stirring up the greed in her belly, making her even more hungry.

She opened her mouth and took a bite. It was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. It tasted great. She couldn't help but nodded and said in appreciation: "It's so delicious."

"As soon as it came out of the oven, I asked them to prepare it."

Xia Qianqian was tasting the delicious food and was stunned for a moment, "Do you know I will come back?"

Ji Zimo smiled and reached out to wipe a crumb of pastry from the corner of her lips, "I'll start counting from the moment the signal bomb takes off. You'll be back in an hour and a half at most."

Xia Qianqian became even more curious.

"I went to Fu'an Village this morning just to avoid the trouble in Jiangcheng. Why are you so sure that I will change my mind and come back?"

He smiled but didn't answer.

He stretched out his hand to bring the hot tea on the table and blew it, "You are hiding because you are worried about mother's safety. When you come back, you are naturally worried about Xia Chi's life and death."

He finally got it right.

"Since you've figured me out, why didn't you stop me when I left!" She was annoyed. When she was about to protest, she passed the steaming tea to her lips, "I respect your decision."

"If you want to avoid trouble, I will let you go. If you want to face difficulties head-on, I will make the best preparations for you."

"Ahem..." He became more emotional about this situation, which made her not know how to deal with it. She choked on the pastry in her throat.

He hurriedly helped her sit up straight, stroked her back with one hand to help her breath, and brought the tea cup close to her mouth again, "Drink some quickly."

Xia Qianqian lowered her head, took a sip of tea in a hurry, and straightened her breath, "My mother is worried about my father, Xia Chi..."

"I've seen him!" He used a handkerchief to help her wipe away the water stains around her mouth.

"What, cough cough cough..." She almost choked again, "He is really back?"

"Last night, he came looking for me."

"Last night?" Xia Qianqian forgot to eat half of the cake in her hand, "In Mo Mansion?"

"Yes!"

"He is such a ruthless person."

Xia Qianqian stood up, threw half of the pastry on the plate, clapped her hands, and said angrily: "There has been no news from him in the past three years. Now when I pass by my house, I don't even look inside."

"Does he know that his wife at home is waiting eagerly?"

This behavior of leaving his wife and daughter behind to take risks alone in the name of righteousness made Xia Qianqian puzzled and at the same time even more disdainful.
