Chapter 89 What Can the County Magistrate Do?
Dai Jin'er had never met the master, and thought he was just a servant who relied on his master's power. She shouted, "Where did you come from? Does your master think he is the king of heaven? You can come to see him just because he wants to."
She hated these people the most.
Lin Xi looked at Dai Jin'er with a hint of admiration. Her temper had improved during the time she had been with him.
However, it is a good phenomenon. Who says women should be bullied?
The lawyer was used to being domineering in the county town. He had never been treated like this before and he got angry on the spot.
Fortunately, Lin Xi spoke faster, "Where is your master?"
Since the lawyer has appeared, it means that the person must be Hang Qi.
But judging from his attire, he probably wasn't here on official business this time.
"It's just outside the door." said the master.
Lin Xi turned around and said to Dai Jin'er, "The shops are all going to close anyway, go find your sister and leave together later."
Dai Jin'er was stunned for a moment, then reacted and nodded at Lin Xi.
This sentence was a code word agreed upon between the two. If Lin Xi encountered any situation that was inconvenient to say directly, he would use this excuse to let Dai Jin'er go to Xiao Yongyan for help.
Dai Jin'er got up and went out reluctantly.
After making sure that there was no one else around, the lawyer trotted to the front of the sedan chair, lifted the door curtain, and helped Hang Qi get out of the sedan chair.
Walking into the store, Hang Qi looked around curiously.
Linxi's shop is not very big and there are few things inside, only two items.
There were even fewer tables and chairs, and it seemed that they were not used to entertain guests.
Lin Xi poured a cup of tea for Hang Qi, and said with a masterly attitude, "My Lord, what do you want to talk to me about?"
Hang Qi found Lin Xi's question very interesting and asked, "Aren't you afraid of me?"
"I am a descendant of the Lin family in Beijing, why should I be afraid of you?" Lin Xi sat up straight, acting like a lady from a noble family.
I have to say, she looks quite intimidating like this.
Hang Qi chuckled, "I almost forgot that before you were exiled, you were also a noble lady in the capital. Naturally, you would not take poor kids like us seriously."
Good to know, Lin Xi rolled his eyes silently.
"But now you are married to Xiao Yongyan, and you are dragged to this remote place, and you even have to earn money to support him yourself. Don't you have any regrets in your heart?" Hang Qi asked.
Lin Xi remained calm.
Why did Hang Qi suddenly bring up this? Why did she have a bad feeling?
"In fact, for a woman, the most important thing is to be with the right man. If you had married a man from another family in Beijing, you wouldn't have to live such a life." Hang Qi's tone was full of regret.
Lin Xi felt more and more that something was wrong, and followed his meaning and asked, "Sir, for us girls, we follow the chicken wherever she goes."
"Yes, you are right," Hang Qi slapped the table, "To be honest with you, I came here just to gain some experience. I will be transferred back to the capital in a few years, so..."
"So——" Lin Xi looked at Hang Qi.
Hang Qi simply sat next to Lin Xi and said, "If you follow me, maybe in the future..."
Lin Xi never expected that Hang Qi would come to say this, but before Hang Qi could finish his words, he was punched by Xiao Yongyan who suddenly rushed out.
This was the first time Lin Xi saw Xiao Yongyan hitting someone, and Hang Qi himself was also confused.
"I said you..."
Another punch!
Hang Qi's face was a little red and swollen. Xiao Yongyan protected Lin Xi behind him with a terrifying momentum, "Hang Qi, even if I have fallen to this point, I still have a way to make you live a life worse than death."
His voice was clearly very calm, but there was a hint of coldness in it, like a Shura from hell.
The master lawyer who was waiting outside heard the noise and rushed in. He saw Hang Qi covering his face with his hands, terrified.
"Sir, what's wrong with you?" The lawyer took a closer look and found that Hang Qi's face was red and swollen.
"Lin Xi, what on earth did you do!" The master immediately looked at the two of them.
Lin Xi looked innocent. It wasn't her who hit anyone, so why ask her.
"Why don't you get out of here?" Xiao Yongyan looked at the two of them coldly.
Hang Qi felt extremely aggrieved and clenched his fists, ready to fight back.
"Think it through. Since I dared to take action, I have thought about any consequences." Xiao Yongyan said calmly, "If you want to retaliate, you might as well think about what the person in the capital wants from you."
Hang Qi closed his eyes. This Xiao Yongyan must know something.
"Let's go." Hang Qi said to his master with gritted teeth.
The master was dumbfounded, "Leaving now?"
"Let's go!" Hang Qi didn't want to say more, he just raised his leg and walked out. The master had no choice but to follow him quickly.
But before leaving, he did not forget to say a harsh word, "You two, wait for me!"
Seeing the two people walk out of the store, Lin Xi looked at Xiao Yongyan, "Are you okay?"
Xiao Yongyan smiled slightly, "What can I do?"
"But you just hit the county magistrate." Lin Xi said. She had never seen Xiao Yongyan so violent. "Will we be retaliated against?"
"Of course." Xiao Yongyan said, "But no man can endure the situation just now. My dear wife, shouldn't you explain what happened just now?"
Lin Xi laughed dryly twice. What happened just now? Wasn’t it just that Hang Qi said some nonsense?
"I didn't agree." Lin Xi quickly distanced herself from the matter.
"It's over." Xiao Yongyan raised his eyebrows, blocking Lin Xi's retreat. "You shouldn't have followed his words from the beginning."
Lin Xi fell silent. This bastard had clearly been here just now, but he just didn't show up, deliberately trying to make fun of her.
"I just want to hear what he wants to say. I have absolutely no intention of betraying you." Lin Xi raised his hands in a gesture of surrender.
She just wanted to tease Hang Qi. She didn't even blame Xiao Yongyan for stealing her lines. Why is Xiao Yongyan blaming her for reacting inappropriately now?
"Madam, are you devoted to me?" Xiao Yongyan asked.
Lin Xi nodded vigorously, "Of course."
"Prove it to me."
Lin Xi blinked her eyes. How could this be proved?
Xiao Yongyan found Lin Xi's bewildered look cute, so he pushed her to the pillar, bent over and kissed her.
Lin Xi subconsciously closed her eyes and felt the gentle breath coming from Xiao Yongyan.
Although he said he wanted to settle the score, his actions were gentle and compassionate, as if he was protecting some priceless treasure.
It was unknown how long it took before Xiao Yongyan ended the kiss.
Lin Xi felt like he was almost suffocating, so he let go and took a deep breath.
"Don't do this next time." Xiao Yongyan said.
Lin Xi silently promised in her heart that there wouldn't be a next time.
…
In the sedan chair on the way back to the county town, Hang Qi covered his cheeks.
The master outside said, "Sir, Lin Xi and Xiao Yongyan have gone too far. They are so bold and must be severely punished."
Hang Qi calmed down and thought of the instructions given by the man in the capital before coming here. He tutted in annoyance, "It's not the right time yet."
When he gets what he deserves, he will definitely trample Xiao Yongyan under his feet.
