Xia Xiunian walked in.
Upon seeing Jiang Bozhou inside, he was taken aback at first, and then walked straight to Li Yunyan's side.
Jiang Bozhou stood up and bowed, "Greetings, Admiral!"
"Um."
Xia Xiunian nodded slightly as a greeting.
He looked a bit grumpy.
He stood very close to Li Yunyan, a gesture that was quite suggestive. Although there was no physical contact between them, the distance alone indicated that their relationship was very intimate.
Jiang Bozhou's eyes flickered, then he smiled knowingly, lowering his gaze to hide the sadness in them.
Xia Xiunian looked down and saw the names of the books on the table, and frowned slightly.
"The domineering young master has fallen in love with me?"
Looking at another manuscript, "Don't talk to strange scholars?"
"......"
"...What are these?"
This is the second time Li Yunyan has been embarrassed today.
Don't read the book title out in front of the author!
She coughed a few times, quickly gathered the books on the table, then pushed the stack of manuscripts next to Jiang Bozhou, and said with feigned composure, "Ahem! These are the stories I wrote, in cooperation with Young Master Jiang's bookstore, to make a living!"
"let me see!"
As Xia Xiunian spoke, he tried to take a book from her hand.
Li Yunyan quickly hid the book behind her back, "No! I won't let you see it!"
"show me!"
"Hey, don't!"
The two began to argue and fight, and Jiang Bozhou, seeing their behavior, took his leave.
"Miss Yunyan, when you come next time, I will take the profits from your first book."
"OK!"
Li Yunyan dodged Xia Xiunian's move and said apologetically to Jiang Bozhou, "Young Master Jiang, thank you for sending me the book. I'll treat you to tea next time!"
"good."
After Jiang Bozhou left, Li Yunyan locked the courtyard gate, pouted, and looked at Xia Xiunian, saying, "Did you do that on purpose just now?"
Xia Xiunian made no attempt to hide it, reaching out to pull her into his arms, his voice deep and resonant, "Yes!"
"How could you do that!" Li Yunyan slapped him. "How rude of you!"
He inhaled the fragrance of her hair and said sourly, "I don't like the way he looks at you!"
Li Yunyan felt a little embarrassed. Fortunately, her plan to win over Jiang Bozhou was stopped by Xia Xiunian before it even officially began. Otherwise, it would have been too awkward!
She looked up at him and said seriously, "It's not allowed anymore! My relationship with Young Master Jiang is a normal business partnership!"
Xia Xiunian answered without hesitation: "Okay!"
Let's see how he performs in the future!
"snort!"
Li Yunyan hit him again, went into the house to put away the storybook, and then went into the kitchen.
"Come here and start a fire!"
"They're here!"
Xia Xiunian now comes over to Li Yunyan's place every day to freeload. He also brings a lot of ingredients with him every day, so Li Yunyan doesn't have to go out to buy them.
The two of them now work together seamlessly, one cooking and the other tending the fire, chopping wood, fetching water, washing dishes, and cleaning up the mess. They don't even need servants!
After dinner, Xia Xiunian stayed in Li Yunyan's room, hugging and kissing her repeatedly.
Every time, they kissed until they were practically on fire, then fled in a panic.
Li Yunyan chuckled helplessly. Xia Xiunian's appearance was truly...
He's bad at the game but loves to play!
*
It's late at night again.
Li Yunyan had already fallen asleep when she was woken up by the system's screaming.
[Warning! Warning! There are four assassins outside!]
[Warning! Warning! There are four assassins outside!]
Li Yunyan suddenly opened her eyes and looked out the window.
There were indeed very faint breathing sounds outside, and judging from the sounds, there was more than one person.
It seems that Consort Xian has really gone all out this time!
An impatience flashed in Li Yunyan's eyes.
It's not the thief you should fear, it's the one who has his eye on you! She originally planned to wait until the Li family's case was overturned before finding an opportunity to enter the palace and quietly deal with her!
It seems we need to strike first!
The thin window paper was pierced by the bamboo tube, and wisps of blue smoke rose from it.
Li Yunyan quickly swallowed a system-generated antidote pill and adjusted her breathing to the lowest level.
Silently, she pulled a dagger from under her pillow, climbed out of bed, and tiptoed to a corner of the room, preparing to catch her opponent off guard.
Before the man in black even entered, the sounds of fighting could be heard outside.
Li Yunyan looked out through the crack in the window and saw that Xia Xiunian had come over!
Worried that he would struggle to deal with four assassins by himself, Li Yunyan quickly returned to the bedside to put on her shoes, grabbed a dagger, and rushed out.
Upon seeing her, the four assassins were all stunned. The sleeping potion was specially made in the palace and could knock out a cow. They never expected that this woman would not fall for it!
A sharp light flashed in Li Yunyan's eyes. She exchanged a glance with Xia Xiunian and then joined the battle.
With Li Yunyan's addition, Xia Xiunian found it much easier to deal with the assassins, no longer needing to worry about anything else, and every move he made carried a sharp killing intent.
Li Yunyan's movements were nimble, like a light swallow, showing amazing flexibility and agility. Whether she was attacking or dodging, she was amazing.
The dagger in her hand was only suitable for close combat. She leaped lightly, spun once in the air, and landed accurately behind the assassin, slitting his throat in one fell swoop.
In just a few breaths, the two of them dealt with the four men in black, who lay sprawled in the courtyard.
Li Yunyan and Xia Xiunian exchanged a smile.
Xia Xiunian's eyes were full of admiration, "Yanyan, I didn't expect your kung fu to be so good!"
