Chapter 157 Xu Cha Cha

Xu Shujian stopped.

Jiang Qiyun walked up to him and reached out to take off the hat that was covering his face to see what kind of face the person underneath had. But before he touched the hat, he saw Xu Shujian take a step back.

Jiang Qiyun frowned, with a barely perceptible sharpness emanating from the ends of his eyebrows.

"Why are you here? Who are you holding?"

Xu Shujian said calmly, "The person in my arms is just a friend of mine. Please don't make things difficult for me, young marquis."

Jiang Qiyun narrowed his eyes and glanced at the woman in his arms, "What if I must embarrass you? Who are you hugging? Why don't you dare to see anyone?"

He was 90% certain that the person in the man's arms was Qiao Wanyan. Her face was covered and she was not resisting, which clearly meant she had fainted.

He left stealthily holding the unconscious Qiao Wanyan. He didn't believe that this man was a good person!

Just as Xu Shujian was about to speak, he saw Qiao Wanyan take off the hat that was covering her face.

Qiao Wanyan, who used to be in her prime, pink and pretty, now looked pale, making her lip balm-coated lips look even redder.

Cold sweat ran down his forehead, and his deep peach blossom eyes were half closed as he looked at Jiang Qiyun's stunned expression.

Before he could even open his mouth, Jiang Qiyun strode forward and forcibly hugged the man over, "What's wrong with you? Did he drug you? You're so good with me on weekdays, how come you were taken advantage of by a filthy thing?!"

Xu Shujian withdrew his hands that were frozen in the air and let them hang at his sides. He looked at him calmly, and a hint of coldness like autumn water and cold stars flashed in the depths of his eyes.

Qiao Wanyan really didn't have the energy to explain to this idiot at the moment, "Go to the back door."

Jiang Qiyun frowned, turned around without saying a word, picked up the person and went towards the back door on the west side.

After walking a step or two, he turned back and ordered in a deep voice, "Follow me."

Don't think that he really bullied Qiao Wanyan and let her go because of his carelessness. It is not difficult to find someone in the capital, but there is no need to waste time.

The Shangshu Mansion is not far from the residence of the Chief Academic Officer of the Imperial College, but it is quite close to the Jing'an Marquis Mansion.

Jiang Qian'an directly asked Lu Jinye to go to Jing'an Marquis Mansion first. When he arrived there and was about to carry the person down, he saw Lu Jinye come in and carry the person down.

"My mistress is unmarried. It is against the rules for the young marquis to hold her in public. It will ruin my mistress's reputation."

Jiang Qiyun frowned: "You are not a man? You won't ruin her reputation? What's the difference between you and me?"

Lu Jinye's expression remained calm, as if even if Mount Tai collapsed in front of him, there would not be even a trace of fear on his face.

He just looked at him calmly, "I am the master's dog, what is the young marquis? Are you the same as me?"

"You!" Jiang Qiyun choked.

Is this guy's brain okay?

Who would say that he is a dog?

Jiang Qiyun entered the mansion with a dark face and the mansion doctor was quickly called over.

After taking her pulse carefully, the old doctor said respectfully, "Young Marquis, this girl is fine. She just caught a cold during her period and has abdominal pain. I'll prescribe some medicine and have someone boil it and send it over. She should keep warm and recuperate, and she will get better soon."

After these words were spoken, Jiang Qiyun and Lu Jinye were still confused.

Menstruation? What is menstruation?

Jiang Qiyun asked quickly: "What is menstruation? Is it serious? Is this a disease?"

The old doctor pursed his lips and was silent for a moment. Just as he was worrying about how to explain to him, Qiao Wanyan threw a pillow at him and said, "Stop making so much noise. Go get me a hot water bottle!"

Jiang Qiyun glared back, "Why are you so fierce? Just take it, do you think I'm afraid of you, my master?"

Xu Shujian silently looked at everything in front of him, and then looked away in a moment.

After the old doctor left, Qiao Wanyan asked Jiang Qiyun to find two maids and let everyone go out. After Jiang Qiyun stopped the maid who came out of the house and asked her in detail, his face suddenly turned red.

The maidservant said, "Young Marquis, the girl inside said she wants Master Xu to come in."

The maid looked at Lu Jinye and then at Xu Shujian, as if she didn't know which one was the Young Master Xu that the girl was talking about.

The young marquis has always been a willful and mischievous person. Could it be that he just took advantage of the girl's beauty and forcibly brought the married girl back to his house?

How can you just snatch someone's husband and bring him back?

Crazy, really too crazy.

Under Jiang Qiyun's gaze, Xu Shujian entered the room and the door was not closed.

"Who is that Xu guy?"

Jiang Qiyun asked, but never got an answer. He turned his head to look at Lu Jinye not far away, frowning in dissatisfaction.

"I'm talking to you, are you deaf?"

Lu Jinye said in a lukewarm tone, "Who knows? If the young marquis is curious, you can go in and ask yourself."

Ask that Xu what kind of vixen she is.

On the agarwood bed, Qiao Wanyan was leaning against a soft pillow, holding a hot water bottle.

Even though she was wearing a misty gauze skirt, one could still see that her waist and back were thin. At the moment, she looked a little haggard, and for no reason, she exuded a thin, weak, and morbid beauty.

"How do you know?"

Although they didn't say it clearly, the two of them understood each other.

Xu Shujian said respectfully, "I hope the Second Miss will forgive me." He folded his hands and leaned forward slightly.

"When the second young lady went to the pavilion in the backyard, I accidentally saw a little bit of crimson on the back of her dress. I don't have a wife, concubines, or sisters, but I once saw my mother have the same accident as the second young lady when I was out with her, so I took the courage to take the cloak and the hot sweet soup."

Xu Shujian spoke calmly and explained the whole story clearly. He also said that he was not a playboy who knew women too well.

In addition, Xu Shujian had a cold and compassionate face like a Buddhist, which made it impossible to dislike him no matter how you looked at him.

"How could I blame you? If it weren't for you, I would have to wait on that stone chair for a long time. Tell me, what reward do you want?"

Xu Shujian's lips curled up slightly, and his smile was like the warm sunshine in early spring breaking through the ice, dispelling the biting cold. His phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, full of gentleness and tenderness.

"The Second Miss is the daughter of my mentor. It is my blessing to be able to help the Second Miss. Why should I ask for any reward?"

Qiao Wanyan nodded, "Okay, then you can go out."

What a fool! I even asked for a reward for him, but he refused it. He is indeed a poor scholar who has never seen the world.

Xu Shujian: “….”

Xu Shujian saw the slight disdain on her face.

After leaving the house and closing the door behind him, Jiang Qiyun asked casually, "What did she tell you?"

Xu Shujian smiled slightly, "This is a secret between me and the Second Miss, it is inconvenient for the young marquis to know."

Jiang Qiyun looked displeased.

Xu Shujian said slowly, "It's not good to tell outsiders about this matter."
