Lu Yan also noticed that Si Jin seemed unhappy and was in a bad mood. Before this, Lu Yan only knew this guy as a little cutie, but now when he looked at Si Jin again, his feelings toward him were more nuanced, because he was now a famous grand master.

Lu Yan coughed lightly, put on a calm pretense, and left the side hall.

Steward Zhang, who was at the door, and the little maid who was serving them also quickly left.

When only Qi Qingyao and Si Jin were left in the side hall, Si Jin pouted and complained in dissatisfaction. He kissed you, yet you still wont let me kill him.

Qi Qingyao looked at the kids angry appearance and shrugged. She said with a look of indifference, It was just a touch of the lips, yet youre calling that a kiss. What an innocent child.

She approached instinctively, wanting to pat Si Jins head.

However, Si Jin turned his head slightly and dodged it.

Si Jins eyes were a little red, and his expression was solemn. Im not a kid anymore, Im all grown up! I- I-I-I-Im eighteen!

Qi Qingyaos hand landed on air. She glanced at her hand and calmly withdrew it. She casually sat back in her seat. Since youre all grown up, you have to think about the problem thoroughly.

Si Jin noticed that Qi Qingyao seemed a little angry about not being able to pat his head.

He did not dare to put up a front anymore.

He approached her and squeezed into her seat abruptly. Fortunately, both of them were skinny.

The armchair was big enough, and he managed to squeeze in.

Ill listen to Sister. Si Jin pouted his lips in a grievance, then pulled Qi Qingyaos hands up, and asked a little broodingly and seriously, Sister, do you really not think that you have suffered a loss?

Was this suffering a loss? Qi Qingyao patted the back of Si Jins hand and glanced sideways at him leisurely. In the eyes of outsiders, the State Preceptor hounded a little maid. Everyone will think theres something wrong with the State Preceptors taste! Dont you think thats funnier than whether I suffered a loss or not?

Si Jin,

That did seem kind of like the case.

In a certain courtyard.

It was quiet in the dead of the night.

In the study, Li Ruoxuan read the doc.u.ments handed over to him from the Capital City and gave his advice. Zhu Shen called for someone to quickly send them back to the Capital City.

Li Ruoxuan finished some miscellaneous tasks and sat at the desk. He looked at the candles flame, silent and with a profound expression on his face.

Zhu Shen could not fathom his Excellencys thoughts.

After thinking for a while, however, he felt that as his Excellencys closest attendant, he had to offer some constructive remarks.

Thus, he took the initiative and said, Your Excellency, why did you treat that little maid like that today

After a pause, Zhu Shens tone was very cautious as he tentatively asked, Would you like me to go to Huayue Building and call for a beautiful lady to keep you company?

After saying that, Zhu Shen did not even dare to take a breath.

He was afraid that he was trying to curry favor the wrong way.

Li Ruoxuans brows did not even move. He sat there as motionless as a statue.

His eyes were still watching the candles flame calmly.

He said in a voice that was soft and slow, That maid was Qi Qingyao in a disguise.

Zhu Shen was rendered shocked and was rendered stunned in place in an instant. He could only choke out a sentence after being stunned for a long while. Your Excellency likes Qi Qingyao? Why else would he have hugged and kissed the disguised Qi Qingyao?!

Li Ruoxuan cast a sidelong glance at Zhu Shen, Youre so shallow.

This word made Zhu Shen immediately aware of something.. He reacted to it, saying, Your Excellency has set your eyes on the young grand master behind Qi Qingyao.
