Chapter 187 The Third Prince’s Dark Moonlight Eunuch 24

Fang Huaishan had people monitoring outside the prefectural government residence early on. When he learned that Sima Yi had left the residence, he immediately brought Shen Xinran to meet him.

"My two lords, you are here to go shopping too. Why don't you go together?" As soon as Fang Huaishan saw Sima Yi and Shi Tianchuan, he walked up to them and greeted them warmly.

Shi Tianchuan observed Sima Yi's expression and saw that he didn't seem unhappy, so he nodded in agreement: "Of course."

Fang Huaishan turned to look at Chen Xinran and instructed: "Qingyan, you can take the adults to our treasure pavilion. If the adults like anything, feel free to take it."

In order to create more opportunities for Shen Xinran and Sima Yi to interact, Fang Huaishan took the initiative to chat with Shi Tianchuan, "The weather is really nice today, Your Excellency..."

There are shops on both sides of the street, and the streets are bustling with people.

Shen Xinran and Sima Yi walked side by side. She looked up at Sima Yi and smiled faintly, "Master, where do you want to go?"

Sima Yi looked indifferent and said calmly, "Didn't we say we were going to the Treasure Pavilion? Then let's go."

Just like that, Shen Xinran took Sima Yi and walked towards the Treasure Pavilion, which was Fang Huaishan's property.

Deng Ming was the owner of the Treasure Pavilion. When he saw Sima Yi, he immediately thought of his dead brothers.

He was so angry that he clenched his fists and wished he could rush up and kill Sima Yi immediately to avenge his dead brothers.

Sima Yi only glanced at him indifferently, and that one glance made Deng Ming feel cold all over. Worried that Sima Yi had discovered something, he quickly lowered his head.

Shen Xinran took Sima Yi to stroll around the Treasure Pavilion. She smiled and said to Sima Yi, "Father said that if you like anything, just take it."

It was early morning and the Treasure Pavilion was deserted. Apart from Deng Ming, there were only a few cleaning staff.

Sima Yi pulled Shen Xinran behind the shelf, gently pinched her chin with one hand, raised an eyebrow and asked, "What is your purpose in approaching me so deliberately?"

Meeting once can be considered a coincidence, but meeting three times in a row, how can there be such a coincidence in the world!

Shen Xinran raised her head and glanced at Sima Yi. Her cheeks flushed slightly, and she replied with a hint of shyness, "Of course, it's because I fell in love with you at first sight."

Upon hearing this, Sima Yi leaned over and kissed Shen Xinran's lips, passionately and eagerly, with an almost crazy desire, and his breath was filled with a strong possessiveness.

When he bit it with his teeth, the slight stinging was mixed with an indescribable excitement. The sucking was done with greed, and every suck seemed to suck out her soul.

Shen Xinran's breathing became rapid due to the kiss. She reached out to push Sima Yi away, but found herself unable to resist.

After a long moment, Sima Yi let her go. He leaned close to her ear and panted, "But I really can't like your face. What should I do?"

Shen Xinran leaned against the wall, tears welling up in her eyes, and cursed in her heart: Isn’t it too late to say this after you kissed me!

She looked around and her eyes fell on a golden cicada. She said to Sima Yi, "Master, I think this golden cicada has a very kingly aura, which suits you very well."

Sima Yi said with a hint of joking: "You should keep it for yourself. I think it suits you better."

Fang Huaishan brought Shi Tianchuan into the Treasure Pavilion. As they walked, he said, "My Lord, you've been browsing for so long. Did you find anything you like?"

Chen Xinran pointed at the golden cicada beside him and spoke first: "The master said he likes this."

A hint of surprise flashed in Fang Huaishan's eyes. Logically speaking, Sima Yi shouldn't be such a superficial person!

But he still smiled and responded: "In that case, I will make the decision and give this golden cicada to you, sir."

Sima Yi glanced at Shen Xinran and snorted softly, without refutation. He even said it wasn't Xiao Xiangzi. His cleverness was exactly the same.

Fang Huaishan walked up to Sima Yi and continued, "I heard that you didn't bring a maid with you when you came to Jingchu. If you don't mind, I can let my daughter serve you."

Sima Yi picked up the golden toad that Shen Xinran mentioned and raised his eyebrows. "Isn't she your daughter? Are you sure you can bear to give her up?"

Fang Huaishan's smile was filled with flattery, "It's her blessing to be favored by the adults."

A strange light flashed in Sima Yi's eyes, and he said lightly, "In that case, let her stay!"

Shen Xinran followed Sima Yi back to the prefectural governor's residence. After two years of comfortable life, she went from being served to serving others.

As night fell, Shen Xinran asked Sima Yi, "Master, where should I sleep tonight?"

Sima Yi pointed casually, "Didn't your father ask you to serve me? Then you can keep watch there."

Shen Xinran looked in the direction of his finger and saw an extremely narrow bed, even smaller than the one she slept on in the cold palace.

After Sima Yi finished speaking, he lay down on the big bed.

Looking at Sima Yi who had closed his eyes and was about to go to sleep, Shen Xinran couldn't help but think in his heart: You are too careless. If she was really an assassin, you would be dead!

Shen Xinran sighed deeply, walked to his small bed resignedly, covered himself with the quilt, and fell into a deep sleep.

What Shen Xinran didn't know was that at the moment her breathing became long, Sima Yi opened his eyes, sat up from the bed, stared at her profile, and was in a daze for a long time.

The first rays of sunlight filtered through the window lattice, and Shen Xinran was awakened by Sima Yi's call. "Didn't you say you were here to take care of me? How come you got up even later than me?"

Shen Xinran's consciousness was still immersed in the comfort of the Fang Mansion. She thought the maid was calling her, and subconsciously waved her hand, "Xiao Cui, don't make noise, I still want to sleep."

Sima Yi, who was still beside the bed, said sullenly, "I'll count to three. If you don't get up, we'll leave on our own."

When Shen Xinran heard this, she woke up instantly from her sleep. She widened her eyes and jumped out of bed, but accidentally hit her head on Sima Yi's chest.

"Hiss!" Shen Xinran covered her forehead and sat back on the bed. The pain made her almost cry.

Sima Yi breathed heavily, with a hint of blame in his tone: "How can you be so stupid!"

There was a hint of grievance in Shen Xinran's eyes when she looked at Sima Yi. If you hadn't stood by the bed, how could she have been injured? She asked Sima Yi, "Why are you leaving in such a hurry?"

Sima Yi sneered and said, "If you don't want to leave, you can choose to stay and be your eldest lady."

Hearing this, Shen Xinran quickly raised his head, looked at Sima Yi, and said with a smile: "Since my father asked me to take care of you, then naturally, wherever you are, I will be there."

You know, she still has a little bit to do in her mission!

Only when she follows Sima Yi into the palace again and meets the heroine, her mission will be completed.

Sima Yi turned and left, "Since you are awake, come and have breakfast. After that we will be ready to leave."

Shen Xinran nodded and said with a smile: "Right away."
