The 231st chapter has a thief heart but not a thief
Chapter 231: Thieving heart but not courage
"Live at your house?"
While Chai Yan was shocked, his voice became much louder, which immediately attracted the attention of some passers-by.
Hang Baiqiu suddenly turned red with embarrassment, but since she was on the street, she didn't dare to react too much, so she had to hold back her anger and walk away quickly.
Chai Yan quickly stuck out his tongue and hurriedly followed, apologetically saying: "I'm sorry, Commander Hang, I... I lost my temper..."
Hang Baiqiu didn't speak, just turned his face and rolled his eyes at him, and then continued walking forward.
Chai Yan was quite sensible and didn't say anything to provoke Hang Baiqiu along the way.
However, Shangguan Peining was not idle. She took advantage of the silence and asked, "Chai Yan, men here can marry many women. If it were you, how many would you marry in the future?"
"Uh... why are you asking this suddenly?"
Chai Yan couldn't help but be stunned, and couldn't answer for a moment. He really hadn't thought carefully about the question of marrying a wife.
Shangguan Peining smiled and asked: "You have been here only a short time and you have provoked so many women. Is this problem very sudden for you?"
"So many? How many?" Chai Yan was very dissatisfied with Shangguan Peining's choice of words.
Shangguan Peining began to count: "鸱鸱, Jimo Qiao, Gu Ling, and this Hang Baiqiu... there are four of them, isn't there a lot?"
Chai Yan immediately defended: "Hey, hey, can you understand the situation first? Jimo Qiao is my sister-in-law, Gu Ling is my sister-in-law's good friend, and Hang Baiqiu is my colleague and boss. Except for Yuan, the other three
When have I ever provoked someone?"
"Hey!" Shangguan Peining made a sound of contempt and complained: "Chai Yan, can you hide those dirty things in your mind from me? I just want to save face for you, so I didn't tell you.
!”
Chai Yan was immediately speechless and had no choice but to act rogue and said: "Yes, I've had sex, can't I just have sex? Are there any human rights left? Your control is too lenient..."
"Ha, think about it? According to me, you have a thief's heart but no courage!" Shangguan Peining sneered, still speaking unforgivingly.
Chai Yan was not convinced, and said tit for tat: "Who said I have a thief's heart but not a thief's courage? Do you believe that one day, I will marry them all back!"
"Haha, hahahaha..."
Shangguan Peining burst into laughter immediately after hearing this and couldn't stop it.
Chai Yan was despising Shangguan Peining when he heard Hang Baiqiu in front of him turn his head and call: "Chai Yan..."
"Ah?" Chai Yan quickly stepped forward to Hang Baiqiu's side: "What's the matter?"
Hang Baiqiu said: "Do you still have the mantra water from last time?"
Chai Yan said: "Yes, when the real culprit is found, I will let him enjoy it immediately!"
Hang Baiqiu nodded: "Then I'll be relieved!"
After chatting for a while, the two came to the door of a mansion with a plaque of "Hang Mansion" hanging on the door.
"Here we are, this is my home..." Hang Baiqiu said.
Chai Yan followed Hang Baiqiu to the door, knocked on the door knocker twice, and called out: "It's me!"
Soon a maid opened the door and said: "Miss, you are back..."
Hang Baiqiu led Chai Yan into the house, and then ordered the maid: "Take someone to the west courtyard to clean up the room first."
"Yes, miss." The maid immediately followed the instructions.
"Follow me, I'll take you to the west courtyard!" Hang Baiqiu motioned to Chai Yan to follow him.
Chai Yan observed the scenery in the house as he walked, and suddenly asked in a low voice: "Sir Hang, is there someone in your family who is a senior official of the imperial court?"
Hang Baiqiu was silent for a moment and said coldly: "It was there in the past, but it's gone now..."
"Oh..." Chai Yan thought that Hang Baiqiu didn't want to talk about this topic anymore, so he shut up angrily.
After a while, Hang Baiqiu turned around and asked, "Why don't you ask what official you are?"
Chai Yan smiled and said: "If you can say it, you will naturally say it, haha..."
"When the late emperor was in power, my grandfather was the Minister of the Ministry of War." Seeing Chai Yan say this, Hang Baiqiu didn't hide it. After all, it was something that could be known by just asking anyone.
"Wow, a second-grade officer!"
Chai Yan was surprised and relieved at the same time. No wonder Hang Baiqiu and the Crown Princess have known each other since they were children. They are both descendants of high-ranking officials!
Soon, the two came to a small courtyard in the west, where two maids were quickly cleaning up the house.
Hang Baiqiu was thinking about the horses, so he said to Chai Yan: "You will have a good rest in a while. I have to go see the good horses sent by the princess. I can't delay my trip tomorrow morning..."
"Secretary Hang, please wait..."
Chai Yan stopped Hang Baiqiu who was about to leave.
"Is there anything else?" Hang Baiqiu turned around and asked.
Chai Yan smiled and said: "Sir Hang, when I come to stay at your house, shouldn't I say hello to the elders in the family? Otherwise, wouldn't it be too rude?"
"No need! They would have gone to bed so late." Hang Baiqiu rejected Chai Yan directly, and then left the courtyard without looking back.
After waiting for a while, the maid tidied up the room.
When Chai Yan entered the room, he saw that the room was not only clean and tidy, but the bedding and pillows on the bed were all brand new.
Chai Yan immediately took off his shoes, socks and coat and lay down on the bed, then found a comfortable position and stood still.
But just after sleeping for a while, Chai Yan suddenly sat up. He remembered that he hadn't fully learned to ride a horse yet. He had to tell Hang Baiqiu about this in advance. If he said it on the spur of the moment tomorrow morning, Hang Baiqiu would definitely be furious!
So, Chai Yan quickly put on his clothes, shoes and socks, and walked out of the small courtyard quickly.
I wanted to find a maid and ask where I could find their young lady, but I looked around but didn't see even a single figure.
After thinking about it, Chai Yan had no choice but to walk back along the road to the west courtyard, thinking that he would definitely meet someone along the way and then he could ask Hang Baiqiu where he was.
Strangely enough, Chai Yan walked for a long time without seeing a single maid.
It was already very late, and Chai Yan couldn't help but feel a little fussy, thinking to himself, what are you doing? What are the servants doing in such a big house?
After finally seeing a bright courtyard, Chai Yan was overjoyed and immediately walked towards the bright place.
When I entered the courtyard, I saw several weapon racks placed in the courtyard. The weapon racks were all filled with various weapons. If I took a closer look, I saw that the courtyard was a small martial arts training ground.
Chai Yan looked for a long time but couldn't guess who lived in the yard, so he walked through the martial arts training ground and went straight to the bright house.
"Dong dong dong..."
"Come in!"
Chai Yan had just knocked on the door and was still thinking about how to say hello when someone inside responded. He immediately recognized the voice and it was Hang Baiqiu.
Chai Yan immediately breathed a sigh of relief and said to himself that he was quite lucky. After searching around in the dark, he found the right place.
