Chapter 264 Bells
Meng Qingqian didn't have many personal belongings. In addition to the clothes a woman needs to wear, she also had a personal jade pendant and a bell.
The bell is naturally used in conjunction with the Soul-Eating Pill, something that restricts He Yunxiao.
Seeing this object, Meng Qingqian felt a little calmer after all the emotions stirred up by He Yunxiao.
How should I put it, although He Yunxiao broke his own defenses intentionally or unintentionally, his life is still in his own hands. Compared with the two, life is more important. But I heard that people who have taken Soul-Eating Pills
It's not okay to live for a long time. He Yunxiao is of great use, so he can't die easily.
Meng Qingqian held the bell in her hand tightly, then removed the red rope from the jade pendant, threaded it through the hole in the bell, hung the bell on her chest, and carried it close to her body.
The bell is not big, so it would be suitable to hang on her chest. However, it doesn't matter if the bell is larger or smaller, since it will be too deep into the soft flesh to move.
With this thing close to her body, as a protection and psychological suggestion, Meng Qingqian's mind became more stable again, and her face would not turn red when she saw He Yunxiao, and her heart would not beat when she saw He Yunxiao, and she would not be able to say anything if her guard was broken.
However, the bell is very easy to ring when walking around the neck, so a solution must be found.
Meng Qingqian had already changed out of his old clothes at this time. Among the changed clothes, the old trousers and the handkerchief given by He Yunxiao were also changed.
Both of these things need to be washed well.
Meng Qingqian thought for a while, without alerting the maid. She took out a small knife for self-defense, cut a piece of dry and soft cloth on her trousers, and stuffed it into the bell to block the sound. As for the remaining part of the trousers, it was lit by candlelight.
A fire burned it down.
Completely destroy evidence.
Now the only evidence that can prove that he has broken through the defense is He Yunxiao's handkerchief and He Yunxiao himself.
Meng Qingqian thought for a while, but still did not destroy the handkerchief given by He Yunxiao. Because he himself was the evidence, there was no point in destroying the handkerchief at this time, not to mention that He Yunxiao, a thief with many tricks, could still contaminate her like the last time.
The same handkerchief as the saliva, buy the same style to stimulate yourself.
Thinking of this, it would be better to leave the handkerchief and wash it clean to show that he doesn't care. This kind of "I don't care" approach can make He Yunxiao more honest and calm.
Meng Qingqian washed her body, changed her clothes, put on the bell, and asked the maid to wash carefully and keep the handkerchief carefully, and then rushed to the waiting room for her appointment.
One theory is that Meng Qingqian always does things very quickly, perhaps because he spends a lot of time looking at discounts for many years, even when it comes to changing clothes.
Two quarters of an hour after leaving He Yunxiao, Meng Qingqian came to the living room and saw He Yunxiao again.
After experiencing the pink peony handkerchief incident, even with the bell to calm her mind, Meng Qingqian could not face He Yunxiao with a completely calm mind.
An imperceptible blush flew to Meng Qingqian's face. When facing He Yunxiao, her mood and breathing became a little faster.
He Yunxiao originally planned to wait for an hour and leave before seeing anyone. He knew very well how quickly women changed clothes. Don't have any illusions about them.
Although it was important to talk about the development of the bank, he also promised Chu Chu to go and play with her in the afternoon. Compared with the heroine and career, He Yunxiao will always choose the heroine.
He Yunxiao has been very clear about this kind of thing since his previous life.
What did you go to school for in your last life? To make money.
What is the purpose of pursuing a career in this life? The heroine.
The heroine comes first, career comes second, you can’t put the cart before the horse.
As a result, the antidote came over after changing clothes in less than half an hour.
"Miss Li, your clothes are not bad, but if you can wear some, ahem, more feminine clothes, you will definitely be more beautiful. Not to mention, those ladies from the wealthy family will definitely not be able to compare with the beauty of the girl."
He Yunxiao asked Li Qingmeng something, and when he saw her, he took the opportunity to compliment her.
Meng Qingqian prided herself on her unparalleled beauty and originally did not accept such "poor compliments". But He Yunxiao was different from others. To her, he was the special among the special and the exception among the exceptions.
Even though Meng Qingqian was not happy at all because of He Yunxiao's praise, she felt a little ashamed because He Yunxiao took the initiative to talk to her, which brought back memories.
Her pretty face turned red for an unobservable amount.
Meng Qingqian sat down opposite He Yunxiao and said, "Master He, if you want to say something, say it now."
After trying almost unsuccessfully, He Yunxiao scratched his head and said sheepishly: "Miss Li, you know I'm in business, that Daqi Bank."
Meng Qingqian was naturally well-informed, "I know, but it seems that girl from the Du family is in charge recently. Which bank of yours doesn't want it anymore?"
He Yunxiao said: "Yes, that's what I want to say. I plan to, um... ask you for help... You know we business people, there are always inconveniences..."
Meng Qingqian looked at He Yunxiao suspiciously: "You want to borrow money again?"
He Yunxiao smiled and said: "That's not the case, here." He Yunxiao took out a 10,000 tael silver note and handed it to Meng Qingqian. "I lent it to you last time, and now I'm giving it back to you."
Meng Qingqian looked at He Yunxiao in surprise.
You know, it had only been a few days since the last time she lent money to He Yunxiao. As a result, He Yunxiao earned ten thousand taels and returned it to her within a few days. This kind of money-making efficiency is simply incredible.
Meng Qingqian raised her head and looked directly at He Yunxiao, trying to find clues about his lack of confidence from his expressions and movements. As a result, He Yunxiao was quite confident, and he gave the money very safely, without any sign of physical pain or reluctance.
On the contrary, He Yunxiao broke my guard. After looking directly into He Yunxiao's eyes for a short time, I felt a very unbearable feeling of shyness and shame in my heart. My heartbeat accelerated, my breathing accelerated, and the blood flowed to the pretty face.
A blush gradually appeared on her cheeks.
Meng Qingqian was not convinced. Normally, she would intimidate others with her eyes. How could she be easily defeated by He Yunxiao now?
After persisting for a short while, Meng Qingqian pragmatically gave up.
Because if you don't admit defeat, your pretty face will turn red with embarrassment, which is even more outrageous.
Meng Qingqian could only comfort herself: It didn't matter if she couldn't compare to He Yunxiao. There was a bell anyway, and his life was in her hands.
He Yunxiao looked puzzled.
What's wrong with the antidote today? It's weird. Did you take the wrong medicine?
"Miss Li, do you still want this money?"
"Yes!" Meng Qingqian said loudly, taking the money that He Yunxiao returned to her into her arms.
The topic returned to Daqi Bank. He Yunxiao cleared his throat and continued: "Miss Li, let me continue. I would like to ask your cousin, Meng Qingqian, what are her future plans?"
Meng Qingqian: "Plan?"
"Yeah. It's related to national affairs. For example, attacking Yan State, or building a new post road, or building a new canal, etc."
It was a matter of national importance, and Meng Qingqian immediately became serious.
