Is she afraid?
What does she have to be afraid of?
But looking at the wolf cub's burning gaze, she was still a little uncertain.
This tree... really won't bear fruit, right?
Xie Jin suddenly smiled, "It's okay, if you don't agree, then don't agree. Anyway..."
"Are you serious? If there's no result, you'll give up."
Xie Jin's face froze.
Qingyin breathed a sigh of relief. "You said it yourself, so you can't cheat. Oh, and since it's a bet, there has to be a deadline. Next year, if there's no result, even if you lose, you can never have any inappropriate thoughts again."
Xie Jin laughed out of anger and slowly stretched out two fingers, "Two years."
Before Qingyin could speak, Xie Jin continued, “A tree that hasn’t borne fruit in over a decade doesn’t care if it’s been right for the past two years.”
Qingyin also laughed in anger, "Sister is twenty-two this year, and in two years she will be twenty-four. You really miss her."
Xie Jin suddenly sat up straight, his hands on the table, and he was only a fist away from Qingyin. He said temptingly, "What's wrong with being twenty-four? By then, you'll be the sister of the new top scholar. Who wouldn't be begging you?"
The atmosphere suddenly became tense.
Their breaths intertwined, and the scorching heat was unavoidable, spraying on her cheek. Qingyin's heart skipped a beat, "You, you, stay away from me."
Xie Jin not only did not retreat, but took a step forward, "Sister, do you agree to what I said?"
This time, all the breath was spread on her delicate neck, causing an uncontrollable tremor.
Qingyin subconsciously dodged backwards and instantly reached the edge of the stool. Before she could sit firmly, the stool slid forward and she fell to the ground.
She subconsciously reached for the table, but her waist was immediately embraced by strong and powerful arms. Xie Jin brought Qingyin to him, as if she was lying in his arms.
At this moment, Qingyin felt that her dignity as a sister was shattered.
She stood up hurriedly and said, "Don't hug me like this next time."
Xie Jin said innocently: "I'm just worried that my sister will get hurt. Is that not okay?"
Qingyin was about to speak when she heard a knock on the door.
She took a deep breath before raising her foot to open the door.
Xie Jin lay down again, feeling unusually cheerful.
He knew that she was not that indifferent.
If only he were a little more tolerant and stuck to her a little longer, she would get used to him sooner or later.
Seeing Qingyin coming back with an invitation in her hand, Xie Jin was puzzled, "Whose invitation is it?"
Qingyin held it up and handed it to him, "She said the county magistrate's wife invited me to enjoy the flowers."
Xie Jin opened it and took a look, then placed it on the table. "It just so happens that tomorrow the county magistrate has invited those of us who have passed the provincial examination to come to his house for a chat. We will set off together tomorrow."
Qingyin murmured "hmm" softly.
She knew that as Xie Jin rose higher in the ladder, these invitations would continue to come.
She really doesn't like this kind of party!
Not only is it boring, but it can also lead to accidents.
Qingyin really wanted to go back to yesterday and spit out those words about how it was easy for something to go wrong.
It's really that good things don't work and bad things are evil.
"Qing, how do you explain this matter?" Lu sat in the seat of honor, looking at Qingyin coldly.
She just saw that Xie Jin passed the exam, and the master also praised the young man highly, so she suggested inviting his family over for a chat.
It also shows that I value Xie Jin.
Unexpectedly, after asking around, she found out that Xie Jin was just an orphan, and the one who raised him was also an orphan girl.
She really looked down on the fact that this single man and single woman were in the same room.
But seeing how much the master loves talent, she didn't want to pour cold water on him.
So, I still sent the post.
But unexpectedly, before I saw her, I heard her conversation with An Rou.
That’s great!
An Rou had said before that the birthday embroidery was ruined, and she had secretly blamed the man for being so careless.
But when she saw that the embroidery was finished and it was just scratched, she felt relieved.
He thought his plan had succeeded.
I accidentally overheard their conversation today and found out that the birthday embroidery was not embroidered by An Rou at all, but by the woman in front of me.
Moreover, she actually knew all the secrets in that thread.
Not only she knew, An Rou also knew,
While panicking, she knew she had to strike first.
Seeing Lu's obvious murderous intention, Qingyin glanced at the lake next to them. It was really a good place to kill someone and hide the body!
Seeing Qingyin didn't say anything, Mrs. Lu winked at the person next to her.
Qingyin asked in panic: "You, what are you going to do?"
Mrs. Lu sneered, "What? You ruined my good thing, and you still ask me what I do?"
Qingyin stepped back, "What good thing? I don't know."
Seeing the two vicious maids getting closer and closer to her, Qingyin didn't care about anything else and turned around to run to the side.
"Catch her."
The two maids suddenly gathered their strength and one of them grabbed Qingyin's arm.
Ren Qingyin struggled to no avail. She cried out, "I'm Xie Jieyuan's sister. Madam, are you not going to care about that?"
"Jieyuan? That would be troublesome indeed, but I don't think he would go toe-to-toe with the county magistrate's wife over a sister he's not related to by blood. After all, you fell into the lake by accident, and I was simply unable to rescue you in time." Madam Lu said to the two maids, "Throw her in the lake and wait for her to die before calling for help."
The moment Qingyin was thrown into the lake, Xiaoqi put an invisible water-proof shield on her.
When Mrs. Lu saw the man sinking and not coming up for a long time, she took him away.
After a while, a scream was heard in the backyard, "Someone fell into the water, help!"
