Chapter 668 Magistrate Xu's Little Assistant 24
Prefect Lu was speechless, choked with emotion, as if a fishbone was stuck in his throat.
Not only did the men he sent out fail, but the target himself appeared before him and told him that the reason he was safe and sound was entirely because he had benefited from the joy of the wedding.
That's absolutely disgusting.
This boy is exceptionally talented, and the Emperor is willing to give him a chance. Although he is only a seventh-rank official now, he cannot be easily offended on the surface.
However, if a person succumbs to temptation and chooses to fall into depravity, then it's none of their business.
A glint flashed in Prefect Lu's eyes; he needed leverage over the other party.
"A banquet will be held tomorrow. Magistrate Xu must attend."
Xu Qingyuan agreed.
Prefect Lu: "By the way, bring that advisor with you."
Xu Qingyuan did not refuse.
In such a large Guining Prefecture, one cannot feel at ease unless one's people are constantly under one's watchful eye.
As if a weight had been lifted from his mind, Prefect Lu chuckled and said, "I have a distant niece who has long admired Master Jiang. She would be delighted if she could meet him tomorrow."
Xu Qingyuan's expression turned slightly cool. "Everything depends on Master Jiang's original intention."
Upon hearing this, Prefect Lu was displeased from the bottom of his heart.
Jiang Jinghuai is nothing but a dying man.
He waved.
Xu Qingyuan took his leave with an inscrutable expression.
Song Jinhuan waited anxiously for a long time. As soon as Xu Qingyuan returned, she surrounded him and looked him up and down.
He then breathed a sigh of relief, "It's good that you're alright, sir."
Xu Qingyuan parted his thin lips slightly and casually asked, "What could possibly happen in Guining Prefecture?"
"Don't worry, Prefect Lu wouldn't dare let anything happen to me in his residence."
Song Jinhuan silently observed his expression.
Xu Qingyuan lowered his eyes, raised his hand to touch his face, and raised an eyebrow, "Is there something on your face?"
Song Jinhuan immediately shook her head, "No."
"Then why are you looking at me like that?" Xu Qingyuan's gaze fell on her men's clothing, and his heart was filled with uncontrollable excitement.
His appearance was indeed remarkable; if it weren't for his exceptional writing skills, he would have been the third-ranked scholar in the imperial examinations.
Song Jinhuan blinked, glanced at Mie Shiyu, and asked softly, "Is Master in a bad mood?"
Xu Qingyuan was stunned. The other person's face showed a cautious worry, a concern he had never seen before.
A corner of my heart suddenly collapsed.
He awkwardly lowered his head to straighten his sleeves and front, trying to smooth out the wrinkles.
Even if it's perfectly smooth and without any wrinkles.
But that doesn't stop him from doing this.
"Hmm~ I'm in a very good mood."
Song Jinhuan didn't believe it; the other party must have encountered something.
She even had the illusion that the mission would not succeed.
Xu Qingyuan is too good at hiding his emotions, making it impossible for anyone to find a way to break through his defenses.
"It's getting late, sir, you should get some rest." Song Jinhuan walked to the door, opened it a crack, and turned to say.
Xu Qingyuan nodded slightly.
Song Jinhuan then left.
The man turned around and leaned against the door.
The footsteps outside gradually faded away, and his body slid down little by little until he squatted on the ground.
A large, well-defined hand covered the upper half of her face, revealing her high nose bridge and lips.
Her eyelashes trembled slightly beneath her palms, and her eyes reddened.
So this is what it feels like to be cared for and worried about without any ulterior motives.
Like a rainbow hanging in the sky after a storm, it was dazzling and colorful.
If only Master Jiang cared about him so much.
A tear silently slid from under her palm to her lips.
Xu Qingyuan licked his lips, making his thin lips even more crimson.
If only Master Jiang only cared about him.
No one knows how hysterically Xu Qingyuan, who appears calm on the surface, is expressing his deepest desires at this moment.
