Author: Willow Leaves in Winter

Xin You's actions made He Qingxiao stunned.

Does Miss Kou love this dessert so much?

He looked down on the plate with only residue left, and He Qingxiao fell into deep thought: So, Miss Kou ordered her guy to take away the plate just now, are she going to continue eating after he left?

After being left for a while, the crispy shell became a little soft. Xinyou's noodles did not change their color and ate the food in her mouth, but in fact her mentality almost broke down.

I haven't done such a shameful thing before.

After scanning the young man opposite, she sighed in her heart: It’s all because of the nonsense that Manager Hu talked and affected her.

Xin You picked up the teacup and took a sip of the tea to suppress the embarrassment: "Will Mr. He not go to the yamen today?"

"Come to find out something about Miss Kou." He Qingxiao pretended not to notice the intention of the girl opposite to see him off.

"Please say it, Mr. He."

"Miss Kou still remembers that I mentioned before that a case that was being investigated involves Guchang Bo Mansion?"

Xin You nodded slightly and raised her heart.

The next thing she wants to meet is Guchang Bo Mansion. The information about Guchang Bo Mansion has to be paid attention to.

He Qingxiao looked at Xin You in the eyes: "I want to know why Miss Kou is concerned about Guchang Bo Mansion."

Xin You tightened her hand holding the teacup, and the waves in her heart were blocked by her calm eyes: "Do I pay attention to Guchang Bo Mansion? Is it related to the case that Lord He is investigating?"

After many contacts, she could judge that He Qingxiao was not a foolish and loyal person, but she could not take risks with the secrets about her true identity.

Not being foolish and loyal does not mean that he would hide it from that person in such a big matter. You should know that Jinlinwei Fushi was originally an emperor. Even if she was grateful to the man in front of her, she would not naively think that he would neglect his duties for a person who had nothing to do. If it was serious, it would be a crime of deceiving the king.

Xin You's reaction was not beyond He Qingxiao's expectations.

Even though Miss Kou's attitude towards him recently was called gentle breeze and drizzle, he always knew that this girl had a big secret, and that was the boundary that would freeze her heart once others touched her.

His question today was just a thought of trying it out, and he was not disappointed without asking the answer.

"I just don't know if it's related, so I came to find Miss Kou to find out. If Miss Kou is inconvenient to answer, then forget it."

Xin You's thorns silently closed in the other party's calm and gentle attitude, and smiled slightly: "Don't worry, Mr. He, what I have to do with Guchang Bo Mansion, it must have nothing to do with the case you are investigating."

Jinlin Guard supervised all the officials and nobles. He didn't know what happened to Guchang Bo Mansion and was targeted by Lord He. He happened to let Lord He notice her who was wandering outside Guchang Bo Mansion that day.

Thinking of this, Xin You looked at He Qingxiao with a strange look.

It was indeed not an illusion. It was okay if she was in peace. Once she met this person, luck would never stand on her side. But he had obviously admitted that he had not had much luck since he was a child.

He Qingxiao was silent.

It seems to be disliked by Miss Kou.

In fact, Miss Kou's purpose in Guchang Bo Mansion did not affect his investigation. He was just worried that she would impulse to confront Guchang Bo Mansion and hit the stone with an egg.

Worried - Realizing that he was in such a mood, He Qingxiao suddenly couldn't sit still: "Since that's the case, I'll say goodbye."

Xin You watched him put down the teacup, stood up, and walked away from the bookstore in a hurry, and soon disappeared.

The girl who sent people out of politeness stood silently at the door for a long time, which made the shopkeeper and the clerk look at him, either worried or curious.

He Qingxiao did not return to the yamen, but went back to Changle Hou Mansion directly.

The people in the Marquis' Mansion were not surprised that he would come back occasionally during the time he went to the yamen. The Jinlinwei tutoring department had special responsibilities and was not the kind of yamen that followed the steps.

When He Qingxiao went to Aunt Gui's place, Aunt Gui was fiddling with the wine jar.

"Aunt Gui wants to make wine?" He Qingxiao thought of the smell of lychee and osmanthus wine that he smelled at Qingsong Bookstore.

Aunt Gui didn't know that it had been exposed, and smiled and said, "I plan to make some new wine wine. This rice wine will not be intoxicating, and it has the sweetness of grapes, which is especially suitable for girls to drink."

Suitable for girls to drink...

He Qingxiao's eyes flashed, as if he asked casually: "Which girl is suitable for drinking?"

"Of course it's Kou--" Aunt Gui reacted and looked embarrassed.

He Qingxiao looked helpless: "Aunt Gui, did you go to Qingsong Bookstore to find Miss Kou?"

Aunt Gui put the wine jar and dusted the dust that did not exist on her clothes. She quickly thought of an excuse: "Oh, it's just a coincidence-"

"Aunt Gui." He Qingxiao shouted.

Aunt Gui was defeated: "Well, I went to see Miss Kou."

If I don’t make up, this child is not only a little bit of luck, but everything else is excellent, and I can’t hide it from him.

"Why did Aunt Gui go to find Miss Kou?"

Aunt Gui raised her hand to tidy up her hair: "I was going to buy books-"

"Aunt Gui."

Aunt Gui completely gave up her struggle: "Actually, she is going to see what the girl that can make the Marquis care about is like."

He Qingxiao had a premonition about Aunt Gui's purpose of going to see Miss Kou, but he felt embarrassed and at a loss as he really said it from the other party.

Looking at the young man who was quietly red with his ears, Aunt Gui showed a loving smile: "After meeting him, I feel relieved. Miss Kou is a very good girl. She has a good birth and has a better temperament. She also likes to eat the crispy yellow duo I made..."

He Qingxiao became more and more angry as he heard it, and he had to interrupt Aunt Gui: "Aunt Gui, Miss Kou is really good, but it's not what you think."

Aunt Gui was stunned: "Does the Marquis not like Miss Kou?"

The girl's calm and beautiful face shook in front of her eyes, and she seemed to smell the faint fragrance of lychees and osmanthus wine coming from her. He Qingxiao shook her head slightly, dispelling the mixed thoughts, and said seriously: "Aunt Gui misunderstood, there is no such thing."

Aunt Gui didn't believe it at all: "If the Marquis doesn't like it, why do you frequently go to Qingsong Bookstore?"

"Aunt Gui forgot that I used to go to Qingsong Bookstore."

"It's okay, the former Marquis didn't bring back so many travel notes."

He Qingxiao was stunned and used a plain tone to conceal the bitterness that suddenly grew in his heart: "I just like my recent travel notes. Aunt Gui, if you like Miss Kou, I don't oppose your interactions, but don't let Miss Kou misunderstand that I have ulterior motives."

"How can this be called ulterior motives-" Aunt Gui wanted to say that when people grow up, it is natural to love the opposite sex, but when they meet the young man's eyes, they hide a little praying, and suddenly they have nothing to say.

Forget it, this child is very thoughtful and always has his own ideas and cannot be too hasty.

"I misunderstood. Don't worry, Marquis, I won't talk nonsense in front of Miss Kou in the future."

"Thank you Aunt Gui for your understanding." He Qingxiao smiled, but didn't feel relaxed, so he picked up a jar of wine and left.

Aunt Gui looked at the young man's departure and stopped talking.
