Chang Ning brought her some fruit as an excuse to gossip: "Did Master Qi scold you?"
"No."
"Young lady is more respectable." Chang Ning sighed and asked, "What about the pocket watch? Has Mr. Qi accepted it?"
Yun Qiao ate the cantaloupe from the fruit plate with a fork. Hearing this, he nodded: "I'll take it."
Chang Ning thought for a moment and suddenly said to Yun Qiao: "Miss, Miss Qi, Master Qi must admire you!"
Yun Qiao: "..."
At this moment, Yun Qiao really had the urge to die, because Chang Ning's words caused her to swallow a mouthful of cantaloupe, choking on her throat.
She couldn't breathe smoothly, so she beat her chest hard to get her breath back, and tears filled her eyes.
Changning was surprised when he saw this: "Miss, are you so moved?"
Yun Qiao: "..."
She was frightened, either by Chang Ning's words or by the piece of melon that choked her. In short, she didn't know how to retort.
It's so unbelievable that any counterargument doesn't hold enough weight.
She could only threaten Chang Ning: "Just say this in front of me. If other people in the Xi family hear it, they..."
"They all say that Master Qi likes you." Chang Ning said, "They say all the time that you want to be Master Qi's little wife. Doesn't this mean you are as beautiful as a vixen?"
Yun Qiao: "..."
There was no melon in his mouth at this moment, but Yun Qiao felt even more uncomfortable from being choked.
At first, Changning and Jingxin didn't like to study, so Aunt Qian and Grandma just let them go. After all, it was very rare for these two orphan girls to learn Yanmen's skills.
It's good to know a few words. Girls in the big environment, some rich girls can only know a few words. What's more, Changning, Jingxin?
Nowadays, the disadvantages of not studying are revealed.
Yun Qiao listened to Chang Ning's words without emotion or anger - even if she defended herself, she would lose.
"They don't count. What if Master Qi also heard it?" Yun Qiao looked straight, thinking to himself that he was a noble and upright person, and a vixen would be a vixen.
She has been a vixen since she started relying on Master Qi. People like the Xi family will have nothing to do with her in the future.
Once things happen to the Xi family, even if she is not living abroad, she is still in Guangzhou. Who can say anything about her?
Changning: "What did he hear?"
"If you frame him falsely, he will slap you to death," Yun Qiao said.
Changning: "No way? Brother Zun said that Master Qi has a good temper and usually doesn't kill people."
Yun Qiao: "Do you believe this kind of nonsense? Brother Zun treats you as a silly girl. He is lying to a fool."
Chang Ning scratched his head, feeling that Yun Qiao was framed by Master Qi.
Yun Qiao: "I asked you to follow Brother Zun for the first time. Why did Brother Zun go there?"
Brother Zun dumped his body.
Those seven corpses... were all killed by Master Qi.
Chang Ning shuddered.
Yun Qiao finally talked her through, feeling very tired, and told her to do what she should do and not to be an eyesore in front of him.
In addition, when the fruit was brought to the table, Yun Qiao no longer wanted to eat it, and it made her feel bad just looking at it.
The moonlight was particularly bright that night, and the beauty was like silver, surrounding this prosperous city, giving the night a light make-up, showing its gentleness.
Tomorrow is the Mid-Autumn Festival.
"Actually, that's all the affairs of the Xi family, right?" Yun Qiao leaned on the milky white railing, her mind wandering, "I want to go to Hong Kong years ago and then go back to pay homage to my grandma."
The first anniversary of grandma's death is coming soon, and Yun Qiao wants to go back to visit her grave.
Over in Hong Kong, the business had just started. Even though a capable steward from the family had taken over, Yun Qiao always wanted to take a look.
To finish this before the end of the year, she had to leave early.
"When will the second brother return to Guangzhou? In fact, I can go with him." Yun Qiao thought again.
With many calculations in her mind, she stood alone for a long time in silence, until the night wind made the bottom of her sleeves feel cold, and then she went back to sleep.
Not far away, deep in the bamboo forest, a figure flashed past, but Yun Qiao didn't notice it.
