Chapter 157: The awakened young embroiderer and the handsome and talented top scholar 19



Xie Jin picked up the chili pepper, ate it, and said calmly, "It's delicious."

If it didn't have two pairs of small ears, it would have started moving by now.

Qingyin: “…”

Okay.

It tastes good, right?

Seeing that there were several more peppers in the bowl, Xie Jin quietly took a big mouthful of rice.

I don’t know where Ayin bought this chili pepper, it’s much spicier than the ones he usually eats.

The two of them ate for nearly two hours before stopping.

Qingyin urged him to take a shower while she took the dishes into the kitchen.

Before she could wash herself, Xie Jin pushed her out of the kitchen, "The water is ready, you go wash first, I'll clean up."

Without waiting for Qingyin to speak, he turned back to the kitchen.

When the two finished their work and returned to their room, the quiet courtyard was bathed in a layer of silver light from the moon.

The next morning.

When Qingyin saw that Xie Jin's door was closed, she knew that he was probably exhausted.

She tiptoed to the kitchen and cooked some pumpkin porridge to keep warm.

Then he slowly went out.

She had to return the umbrella she had borrowed that day. Fortunately, she had nothing to do today, so she went to return the umbrella and then went to sit with Aunt Zeng.

It's been a long time since I last visited her.

Thinking about the last time Xie Jin said his son owed a lot of money, he probably went gambling again.

Thinking of this, Qingyin could only sigh helplessly.

When they arrived at the Governor's Office, Qingyin saw a man hurriedly preparing to go in, so she quickly spoke up to stop him.

Seeing that he was wearing the same clothes as Zeng Sui, it seemed that he was from the Governor's Office.

"Hello, this umbrella was dropped by a man named Zeng Sui. Could you please return it to him?"

"Zeng Sui, he should still be in the office. I'll go get him."

Qingyin waved her hands repeatedly, "No, no..."

Before he could finish his words, the man had already rushed in.

Not long after, another figure hurried out from inside.

When he saw Qingyin, he subconsciously straightened his body a little. He walked up to Qingyin and whispered, "You, you're here."

Qingyin nodded and handed him the umbrella. "Thank you for the umbrella."

Zeng Sui took it and his eyes unconsciously fell on Qingyin's head. He found that he had too many questions to ask before meeting her.

But when I really saw it, I couldn't ask a single question.

She didn't know him.

It's normal to reject him.

He is not in a hurry, nor should he be.

The expression on his face softened a little at the thought.

This scene fell into the eyes of someone far away, and he was immediately jealous.

He walked quickly towards Qingyin, and only when he was close did he return to his usual self, "Ayin, didn't you say you were going to buy groceries and cook for me? Why are you here? Did something happen?"

Qingyin turned around and smiled at Xie Jin, "Nothing, but weren't you sleeping? Why are you out?"

These two sentences undoubtedly dug a huge hole in Zeng Sui's heart.

It took him a long time to come to his senses and asked, "Madam Qing, what is this?"

Xie Jin spoke first, "Xie Jin, by the way, I haven't asked for your name yet."

Seeing the young man's hostility towards him, he uttered two words softly, "Zeng Sui."

"Oh, it's Lord Zeng. We'll take our leave first." Xie Jin said with a forced smile.

She is a good person.

Didn’t you say you rejected Wang Po?

The relationship was rejected verbally, and we contacted each other privately instead.

He was really going crazy.

After saying that, he pinched Qingyin's wrist and pretended to leave.

Although Qingyin didn't know why Xie Jin came suddenly, she could see a hint of scarlet in his black and white eyes.

She felt that it would be better for her to just let him lead her.

Little did he know that in Zeng Sui's eyes, this look was a confirmation of their relationship.

The fingers holding the umbrella had turned white. He waited until the two figures completely disappeared from his sight before returning to the Governor's Office in a daze.

The person who just delivered the message quickly patted the person next to him and said, "Let's go, hurry up, hurry up."

As soon as he saw a woman, and such a beautiful woman, coming to see Zeng Sui, he knew that something must be going on, and it must be a happy event.

Then I saw Zeng Sui’s enthusiasm when he heard a girl return the umbrella.

He knew he was right.

But, how did it turn out like this later?

Qingyin didn't know how this happened. After Xie Jin pulled her back home, she was stunned by his accusations.

She shook her head and laughed, "This is only the second time I've met him."

The second time.

Xie Jin raised her picturesque face and said in an unusually hoarse voice, "What about the first time?"

Qingyin was stunned and didn't understand what was going on.

"Where?" He stared at her. "Where did you first meet?"

"Why are you asking this? It's not a big deal."

Xie Jin looked at her stubbornly, "It's okay? How can it be okay? Don't tell me you don't know that the man was introduced to you by Wang Po. You, you want to agree, right?"

He raised his eyes, his eyes were red, and suddenly he exerted force and held the person in his arms. The fragrance at the tip of his nose instantly penetrated into his bones.

Qingyin was confused at first, but then she struggled hard, "Xie Jin, what are you doing?"

Xie Jin pressed his cold lips against Qingyin's ear, pausing each word with despair, "Ayin, do you think I'm okay? I'm better than him..."

This sentence was like a ignited explosive, causing Qingyin's ears to buzz and her nerves to snap.

"Xie Xiaojin, listen to what nonsense you are saying. I am your sister!" Qingyin pushed him away desperately, but he was desperate and hugged her tightly.
