Chapter 23

Xi Lanting sent Yun Qiao to the gate of Xi Mansion.

After parking the car, Xi Lanting asked her: "Would you like to walk in by yourself, or should I send you to the door of the fourth room?"

Yun Qiao was surprised: "You won't go home?"

"I have an appointment with someone for lunch." Xi Lanting took out his pocket watch and looked at it, "There are still thirty minutes. Forget it, let him wait."

Yun Qiao: "..."

She recalled the conversation at the door of the tailor shop.

Xi Lanting asked her if she was going home or shopping. When he heard that she was going home, he naturally waved to her and asked her to follow him, leaving his female companion behind.

He added that he didn't feel very well.

Yun Qiao thought that he was also going home.

Unexpectedly, he just gave it to her.

Why bother?

There are a lot of rickshaws on the streets.

After Xi Lanting finished speaking, seeing that Yun Qiao didn't answer for a long time, he turned his face condescendingly, and his eyes fell on her face: "Are you slandering me?"

Yun Qiao: "..."

"What are you scolding me for?"

Yun Qiao: "No."

"Can you walk back? It's hard to turn around once my car is in." Xi Lanting urged again.

Yun Qiao said oh and got out of the car obediently.

The sun was very warm that day. After she got out of the car, Xi Lanting rolled down the window.

She thought he had something important to do, but she only saw him slightly tilting his head: "Goodbye, Yun Qiao."

He said goodbye to her seriously.

Yun Qiao was confused.

However, Uncle Qi is sick and his behavior is eccentric and willful, which is understandable. Normal people would tire themselves to death if they had to replace the thinking of a chronically ill patient with their own thinking.

Yun Qiao thinks this logic makes perfect sense.

Yun Qiao accepted the idea of ​​a smooth explanation for everything, even if she couldn't understand it. She said "goodbye", turned around and walked back.

The weather was clear and the sky was cloudless.

From the gate to the fourth room, there is a wide road lined with trees. At this time of year, the peach blossoms are in bloom, the fallen leaves are colorful, and the grass is dyed rich and beautiful.

The cheongsam made by Yun Qiao was delivered on the fourth day.

She gave the delivery boy a generous reward, took the cheongsam, and carried it back to her room.

"Didn't you say that you have to wait a month or two for Jinyunzhai's cheongsam?" Yun Qiao secretly guessed while trying on the clothes.

The cheongsam is exquisitely made and the embroidery is lifelike. After putting it on, the size is just right, with not an extra inch, and it outlines Yun Qiao's graceful waist.

"Master Xi Qi's face is so good." Yun Qiao couldn't help but think.

Jinyunzhai, who was a bully in the shop, kicked out the cheongsam in three days. It was definitely because of Mr. Xi Qi's face.

The maids Changning and Jingxin came up to watch Yun Qiao try on new clothes.

"...Jingxin, if you have nothing to do recently, help me run to the Cao Gang and secretly check for Xi Lanting. I don't think he is a simple second-generation ancestor." Yun Qiao said.

Jingxin: "Miss, I have reminded you several times that they are now called Qinggang."

Yun Qiao muttered: "Caobang sounds better."

"Let them change it back?"

"never mind."

Chang Ning asked Yun Qiao: "Miss, why do you want to check a medicine jar? What can he check?"

"He's quite..." Yun Qiao couldn't say anything for a moment.

She also checked Xi Lanting's background, but found nothing. He was a young man who lived in a house, a very sick young man.

But Yun Qiao always remembered his skill in killing people on New Year's Eve, and he knew Yun Qiao's grandmother's power.

Also, she could smell a dangerous aura from him, which was quite inexplicable.

Yun Qiao could kick Xi Lanting to death with such a weak body, but she felt that he was very difficult to deal with.

Don't mess with him if you can.

Yun Qiao's feeling has always been very accurate.

Therefore, she wanted Jingxin to investigate why she had such a sense of danger.

I went to meditate.

Two days later, Jingxin wrote back to Yun Qiao.

She actually found some clues.
