Chapter 84: The Jade Beauty Who Shatters at the Touch
"What's wrong?" Tang Xian noticed Liang Jinyu's uneasiness and asked hurriedly.
Liang Jinyu wanted Tang Xian to go over and see who the government was arresting, but she was worried that if it was her, things would get out of control.
"Are you going to move forward or not? If not, get out of the way!" the passers-by in the queue behind shouted in dissatisfaction.
His shout successfully attracted the attention of the officers, and one of them looked over here.
Although Tang Xian didn't know the situation, he immediately stood in front of Liang Jinyu and said to the man, "I'm sorry, my sister is not feeling well."
As he said this, he motioned Liang Jinyu to walk to the side.
"Stop!" The officer came over.
Liang Jinyu clenched his fists, feeling annoyed that his life had been going so smoothly recently that he had forgotten his identity.
"Who are you two?" the officer asked, looking at them and pointing at Liang Jinyu, "You, raise your head."
Liang Jinyu took a deep breath and was about to raise her head when she heard the sound of horse hooves in the distance.
Everyone's eyes were drawn to the slowly approaching carriage, and voices of envy were heard one after another.
"As expected of the Xie family, this carriage is really big."
"Look at the decorations on the carriage. They are all made of real gold and silver."
"......"
Under the envious gazes of the crowd, the carriage stopped at the end of the team and the officials hurried to meet it.
But then the coachman jumped off the carriage and walked towards this side, his eyes fell on Liang Jinyu.
"Miss Liang, our young master invites you." The driver nodded slightly and raised his hand to signal.
Passersby turned their heads to look at Liang Jinyu, wondering who this person was and what his relationship was to the Xie family.
"Miss Liang, please." The driver said again.
Liang Jinyu said something to Tang Xian and then walked towards the carriage.
The driver was tall and, whether intentionally or unintentionally, he helped Liang Jinyu block the gaze of the yamen runners throughout the journey and helped her get into the carriage.
The moment the car door closed, Liang Jinyu felt that the light in front of her eyes dimmed a little, and a faint herbal fragrance wafted in the car.
"Sit tight, girl." the driver reminded.
Liang Jinyu quickly sat down on the bench beside her, but her eyes involuntarily looked at the young man sitting in front of her.
He was seen wearing a sky-blue long robe with a white fox collar on the outside.
The car curtains were flipped, and the dim light outlined the contours of his face, which were smooth and clear. His skin was as smooth and delicate as jade, like a jade statue that would break if touched. His eyes were also very beautiful, with the corners of his eyes raised and smiling, and he looked at people with concentration and peace.
Liang Jinyu looked away from the other person and thought to herself, so this is Xie Qingyu, the young master of the Xie family?
She thought the other person should be at least a middle-aged man in his twenties or thirties, but she didn't expect him to be so young.
Because she was not sure whether the other party had guessed her identity, Liang Jinyu could only pretend to be confused.
"I wonder what Master Xie wants to talk to me about?" Liang Jinyu asked.
Xie Qingyu poured some tea and placed it on the table in the middle: "Miss Liang, please."
Liang Jinyu nodded in thanks. Through the curtain, she saw that the carriage had passed the city gate and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Suddenly, Liang Jinyu looked at Xie Qingyu.
Could it be that he was helping her? Did he know her identity?
Realizing this, Liang Jinyu's heart began to beat violently and her hands at her sides clenched unconsciously.
How did he know?
Have you met her before?
Or——
Liang Jinyu's pupils tightened. It was a hairpin!
He guessed her identity because of the hairpin, but what about Yan Xing? Did he know it too?
Countless speculations and suspicions suddenly flooded Liang Jinyu's mind, and she felt like a turtle with its shell peeled off, with nowhere to hide.
"I heard that the young lady bought a house in Yanxing?" Xie Qingyu asked in a gentle voice.
Liang Jinyu pursed her lips, trying to calm down, and replied carefully, "That's what happened."
Xie Qingyu nodded and said no more.
For a moment, the carriage fell into unusual silence again.
Liang Jinyu felt very nervous. Seeing that the carriage had already entered the city, she tried to find an excuse to get off.
But for some reason, Liang Jinyu suddenly asked, "Do you want food?"
Xie Qingyu was stunned for a moment, then chuckled and asked, "Why do you say that?"
Liang Jinyu couldn't take back what he had said, so he said, "I have some food, both coarse and fine. There's a lot of it. I heard that your Xie family was collecting food, so I asked."
"That girl should know that our shop has a fixed source of food."
"It's okay, just remember to look for me when you need me."
Liang Jinyu did not try to persuade Xie Qingyu. After all, judging from the current situation, the Xie family simply looked down on her food. But in two months, the Xie family would smell the business opportunity and would naturally come to her.
Besides, she is reluctant to sell it to the Xie family now.
