Ning Wan leaned sideways, her back pressed against the wall.
Now she just hoped that Chu Si would not say anything that she could not make up for.
After waiting for a long time, Ning Wan didn't hear Chu Si's voice again.
It really makes me crazy, and I get even more panicked when I can’t hear it!
[Host, Chu Si is whispering to the male protagonist. He has one hand on the male protagonist's shoulder and his head is close to the male protagonist's ear.]
Xiao Qi glanced at the latest situation and looked at the two people in the next room, reporting in real time.
Ning Wan: ...Why do I feel that this is a bit inappropriate?
Shen Jingze was still a little confused when Chu Si pushed him onto the chair with his hand pressing on his shoulder. When he looked up, he saw the smile on Chu Si's face that had not yet faded:
"Does Master Chu really think so?"
"Do you really think Miss Ning only treats you as a brother?"
Shen Jingze lowered his voice so low that only Chu Si could hear it clearly.
When the words came out, Shen Jingze could no longer tell what he was thinking.
The question again made the smile on Chu Si's face froze slightly. He looked at Shen Jingze, who looked extremely serious, and thought about it.
"In Junior Sister's heart, I am her relative, her fourth brother, but I can never be her husband."
"In my heart, Junior Sister is my family, my sister, but not my wife."
How could anyone not be able to distinguish between love and family affection? They are clearly two completely different emotions.
Two sentences with the same meaning came out of Chu Si's mouth.
The first thing Shen Jingze thought of was that Ning Wan's acting was very good, at least she really fooled Chu Si in front of her.
Shen Jingze's hands fell on the armrests on both sides of the chair, and he propped himself up, looking at Chu Si who was explaining seriously in front of him, "Shen understands."
Ning Wan, who had heard the conversation between Chu Si and Shen Jingze clearly with the help of Xiao Qi, breathed a sigh of relief, but she didn't expect that her sigh would fall into Shen Jingze's ears again.
Chen Jingze looked at Chu Si, who didn't notice anything unusual, and began to think about how to get Ning Wan to divert her attention away from Chu Si.
At this moment, Shen Jingze had already forgotten that Ning Wan was just an ordinary human being without a complicated identity.
According to common sense, it was impossible for Ning Wan to hear the conversation between the two.
After this incident, Chu Si's mood was not affected by Shen Jingze's words. In addition, the three of them had a tacit understanding not to talk about such topics, so they could be said to be at peace.
It was not until the fourth day that a man in dark blue clothes appeared in the lobby of the inn and broke the tranquility of the inn.
Li Yanqing sat in the most conspicuous position in the inn. On the table beside him was a sword with a dark black scabbard that made people shudder.
Naturally, they had all heard some legends about this general.
When he was fifteen years old and went into battle, he killed his enemy with his own hands, cut off his head, and hung it on the city wall until it was eaten by some birds.
He became famous overnight because of this incident.
There were even rumors that the sword he carried with him had killed countless foreign enemies, and the silver-white blade had long been soaked in blood and was oozing red.
The waiter standing by admired the general in front of him very much.
However, they are at least a hundred miles away from Naluoping, and their inn is not the best in the area.
Li Yanqing went straight here to rest. Even if the waiter had done nothing wrong, he couldn't help but feel nervous.
The waiter first wiped the sweat from his forehead with the white towel on his shoulder, then picked up the hot tea beside him, and after some psychological preparation, he walked towards Li Yanqing.
"General, please have some tea!"
Xiao Er skillfully poured out a cup of tea and placed it respectfully in front of Li Yanqing.
Fortunately, the shopkeeper had the foresight to ask them to prepare some good tea, otherwise he would have been unable to finish this cup of tea.
"Three days ago, two men and one woman came to stay at your inn."
Li Yanqing didn't waste any time. He picked up the tea on the table, took a sip, and spoke in a light tone.
When the waiter heard this, the person who stayed overnight a few days ago immediately appeared in his mind.
After some thought, the waiter really only thought of Ning Wan and the others.
"General, yes, they haven't left yet." The waiter thought for a moment and glanced at the sky outside. "At this time, they are still in the room. Do you need me to call them down?"
Li Yanqing: "No need, go and do your thing first."
Li Yanqing spoke calmly, obviously not planning to meet Chu Si and Ning Wan right away.
Outside the inn, a carriage pulled by four horses was heard.
Li Yanqing did not bring many people with him. There were only two palace soldiers following him all the way, waiting on both sides of the carriage.
When the waiter heard this, he was stunned for a moment.
But I began to wonder about the identities of the three people upstairs.
I believe that anyone who can make the current general wait must be no ordinary person.
Without thinking too much, the waiter retreated, but quietly went to look for his boss.
After the story was told, the shopkeeper, who had seen some ups and downs, thought for a while and decided to wait and see what would happen. When he was told to, everyone in the store would cooperate.
At the same time upstairs, Ning Wan received Xiao Qi's reminder.
[Host, Chu Yi is here.]
When Xiao Qi saw Li Yanqing, the first person he thought of was Chu Yi, the host's senior brother.
Ning Wan also stood up straight because of Xiao Qi's words.
"Chu Yi?" Ning Wan first muttered the name silently, "My senior brother who is a general?"
[The host is not mistaken, it is him, Li Yanqing.]
Ning Wan didn't show any excitement. She just thought about it carefully and asked again, "Could he be the person Master asked me to find?"
Please forgive Ning Wan for being too honest. When she handed the letter to the owner of Wutong Garden, she really didn't think about seeing who the letter was for.
He didn't even bother to ask the elder's opinion.
Xiao Qi replied concisely: [Yes, host.]
[Does the host want to go down to see him? ]
"Does Fourth Brother know about this?" Ning Wan thought about it again and again, always feeling that there was something she had overlooked.
[Well, according to Xiao Qi's information, Chu Si should be aware of this matter.]
After all, it was Chu Si who took the initiative to propose this matter to Chu You, so he was naturally very clear about it.
The house deed in the host's hand was successfully obtained by Chu Si in a short period of time after he borrowed Li Yanqing's relationship.
[Host, is this important? ]
Xiao Qi thought for a while and asked nervously, fearing that his negligence would affect the host.
