Outside the bustling Chinese building, a young man dressed in indigo blue clothes stood aside. He seemed to be looking intently, but in fact he was paying attention to the people coming and going without any trace.
It's indeed Xiaoqi.
Xu Mingyi was sure this time.
She knew that Xiao Qi returned to Ningyang with Wu Chao.
And Xiao Qi is staying here at this time, obviously waiting for someone outside——
So...Wu Chao is visiting a brothel?
After not seeing each other for more than two months, when she first arrived in Ningyang, she bumped into him walking in and out of such a romantic place. Is this a coincidence, or... is this a common occurrence for this person?
As soon as this thought came out, Xu Mingyi's mood was a little complicated, and he shook his head slightly in disdain.
but……
She couldn't help but be a little curious——
Wu Shisun, who usually refuses to let women get close to him easily and always avoids girls when he sees them showing affection, what kind of girl does he like?
Thinking like this, Xu Mingyi subconsciously leaned forward and looked into the building.
At this moment, a figure came out of the building and broke into her sight.
The young man wears a crow-green robe, his skin is as white as jade, and his temperament is noble. He looks out of place in the bustling fragrance of powder and powder everywhere, like a clear spring in the mountains in winter, exuding a refreshing chill.
He clearly doesn't look like someone who likes visiting brothels...
Could it be that this is what is called having a face that can deceive others?
Xu Mingyi murmured secretly, and wanted to step forward, but was hesitant for some reason - upon closer inspection, it felt like he was a bit shy about being close to home.
She rarely had such moments, but this strange hesitation only lasted for a moment.
Xu Mingyi walked through the crowd and walked towards the young man.
When she was about to approach him, she opened her mouth, but did not make a sound. Instead, she suddenly reached out her hand and patted his shoulder.
Sui Jiang, who was beside Wu Chuan, reacted very quickly. A stranger approached his grandson with unknown intentions. This made him subconsciously want to draw his sword immediately, but Xiao Qi, who was beside him, quickly held his hand down.
Sui Jiang frowned and looked at him.
With such vigilance, you still have the nerve to claim to be a secret guard?
A truly qualified secret guard is to put the knife to the opponent's neck first, no matter what the opponent's intentions are!
Xiao Qi smiled and shook her head slightly at him.
Sui Jiang became more and more confused, and then looked at his own young master who should have been equally alert and would not have even let this person get close to him - the young master must have been distracted just now and gave the other party an opportunity to take advantage of him, right?
And now, his young master does look like he is distracted.
Wu Chao turned around and looked at the person in front of him, a little stunned.
Is he... hallucinating?
Or is it another dream?
It used to be that he would dream of going to the capital to look for her - but now he dares to dream of such an unrealistic dream as her coming to Ningyang?
"Wu Shisun, long time no see."
Xu Mingyi spoke in a relaxed tone, but her mood was rarely uneasy.
Perhaps she was a bit presumptuous in coming to Ningyang this time, as she didn't have time to say anything to him before coming.
"Sir, this is Miss Xu..." Xiao Qi on the side broke the brief silence, with a reminder in her voice.
We can't not see each other for more than two months. The young master has even forgotten what Miss Xu looks like, right?
Alas, before leaving, the young master even washed Miss Xu's handkerchief with his own hands. Why did he forget it?
Wu Chao came back to his senses and glanced at Xiao Qi.
Of course he knew who the person in front of him was...
This may seem like a kind reminder, but in fact isn't it a different way of applying eye drops to Xu Mingyi in front of him?
The young man who has a sweetheart seems to be particularly picky and "narrow-minded" in his thoughts.
However, this thought only passed in a fleeting moment, and after all, I really can’t think of much else at the moment——
"I...it's just too unexpected. I never thought that Miss Xu would suddenly appear." Wu Chao explained, with a smile that could not be concealed in the corners of his mouth and eyes.
Even now, he still doesn't feel it's real.
Xu Mingyi felt relieved, and there was a hint of temptation in his words that he was not even aware of——
"It came quite suddenly, so it didn't disturb Wu Shisun, right?"
"No way!" Wu Chao replied decisively.
It's too late for him to be happy, how could he feel disturbed?
Can……
disturb?
The young man realized belatedly... He seemed to have just come out of the largest brothel in the city?
Could it be that what she was referring to was such a "disturbance"?
Thinking of this, the young man felt a roar in his head - he could not afford this crime!
"I just entered Yingyue Tower to do business." Wu Chao lowered his voice a little and explained as calmly as possible: "In order not to make people feel strange, I just pretended to have two glasses of wine——"
As he said that, he was afraid that the always smart girl in front of him would not believe it, so he looked at Sui Jiang: "You come to testify, did I do anything out of the ordinary in the building from beginning to end?"
Sui Jiang:......?
Is it true that the young master has this feeling of being caught visiting a brothel and trying his best to prove his innocence?
Moreover... He also said that he was doing business, so how could he reveal such clan secrets to outsiders casually?
At this moment, Sui Jiang even had the illusion that "the girl in front of him disguised as a man was not a stranger, but the mistress of his family"...!
The incident happened suddenly, and the feeling of being a mistress descended from heaven was really too much for people to react to. He could only nod his head and solemnly said: "My subordinates have been standing by me and never left. I can guarantee my life. There is indeed no descendant of my family."
An outrageous move."
Although he didn't know why he still pledged his life, maybe he had been infected by Shisun's weird desire to survive.
Hearing these words, Xu Mingyi suddenly realized.
She just said that Wu Shisun didn't look like someone who would visit a brothel at all.
The misunderstanding was resolved, and her mood became pleasant. She blinked her eyes, joked, but said truthfully: "I thought there was a girl Wu Shisun liked among them."
Wu Chao denied it sternly: "...there is absolutely no such thing."
He has a girl he likes...
But now I was standing in front of him.
The young man was afraid that clues would be revealed, so he pulled his thoughts back in time, and immediately asked: "By the way, why did Miss Xu come to Ningyang at this time?"
"Do something."
Xu Mingyi replied casually, without directly stating the purpose of his visit - he was most afraid of being entangled with others. If he knew that she came all the way to care about him, once her non-stop mind started spinning, she would probably be so scared that she would leave her body and never see him again.
Her?
"Why didn't I hear you mention it in your letter?" Wu Chao said, "When you came to Ningyang, I should have welcomed you personally."
"It was also an impromptu decision, and I didn't have time to inform Wu Shisun in advance."
Wu Chao vaguely felt that she had not said everything. He looked around and felt that this was not a good place to talk, so he asked, "Can we have dinner?"
Xu Mingyi shook his head and said to him: "Not yet, I plan to stroll around and eat something casually. If Wu Shisun has other business to do, let's get together someday. I will live in the Yinxian Building in front for the time being.
.”
Her original intention was not to delay him from doing business, but as soon as she finished speaking, she heard the young man in front of her say: "I haven't eaten yet."
Sui Jiang's eyes were shocked.
——Didn’t the young master just have dinner before going to Yingyue Tower?
