Si Jinxing asked as she put on her clothes, "What's the matter?"
Bai Xi stood outside the door and said:
"The third young lady of the Si family next door has left the house."
Si Jinyun?
Upon hearing this, Si Jinxing glanced at the time in Xinglin Yaxu. It was exactly 9:30 in the evening.
She couldn't help feeling anxious, and the more anxious she was, the harder it was to put on her clothes.
She simply took out a long down jacket from Xinglin Yaxu and put it on.
When she opened the door, she saw Qingchan already waiting outside.
When Bai Xi and Qing Chan saw their princess's strange outfit, they just took a quick look and then looked away.
The two of them didn't even say a word. Bai Xi tapped his toes, flew up, and led the way.
Qing Chan put his arm around Si Jinxing's waist, followed closely behind, and used his lightness skills to catch up.
Si Jinxing put on the hood of her down jacket and couldn't help thinking, it's so cold, how nice it would be if she could take Xiao Hei out?
However, Qingchan and Baixi's lightness skills were also very impressive. In just a few leaps, they had already reached the house on Xuanqing Street.
Si Jinxing knew this place.
Years ago, after the old lady passed away, Si Jinyun lived in this house for some time.
When Si Jinxing arrived at the door, he saw a black-clad secret guard flash out and salute him with his fists clasped.
However, the secret guard seemed not to have seen her strange clothes. After paying his respects, he was stunned and forgot what to say.
Bai Xi reminded him:
"What's going on inside?"
The secret guard quickly withdrew his gaze from the princess's clothes and reported:
"Princess, a man just entered the yard, right after you."
Si Jinxing nodded and entered the courtyard with Qingchan Baixi.
This courtyard is a two-story house, and the lights in the main house have been lit.
Si Jinxing glanced at Lianxiang who was guarding outside the door, and with a flick of his fingertips, a silver needle shot out.
She sat directly on the beauty chair outside the door and listened to the conversation between the two people in the room.
"Cousin, now that father has become my only obedient father, what should we do next?"
It was indeed Si Jinyun's voice.
The one she called her cousin...
Si Jinxing frowned slightly. Is this person from the Zhou family?
She couldn't help but think that Zhou Song did have a son named Zhou Lin!
The day Zhou Song was murdered happened to be the day his grandmother and three aunts returned to Beijing.
When she went to the north gate to greet them, she happened to meet the Zhou family who were leaving the city.
Later, Zhou Song was killed outside the northern suburbs of the city.
Zhou Bai's reputation was ruined after he murdered his wife, Lu. His business plummeted and he spent his days hanging out in taverns.
Zhou Lin and his mother Zhang have disappeared since then.
Unexpectedly, Si Jinyun was found now!
At this time, the man in the room said:
"Sister Yun is so capable!
Next, of course, I'll have my uncle arrange our marriage. When you come of age next month, we can get married."
As he spoke, he reached out and took the girl in his arms.
This young lady who was brought up in a noble family is indeed very different from those girls outside!
When Si Jinyun saw Zhou Lin's hand reaching out, she subconsciously dodged.
However, before I could move, I thought of that night before the Lunar New Year...
She looked up at Zhou Lin, leaned into his arms, and said softly:
“Cousin, our marriage must naturally be settled.
But, will this bring back what belongs to me?"
Zhou Lin looked at her throwing herself into his arms like this, with a doting look on his face, but he sneered in his heart!
This woman, once she loses her virginity, becomes a spineless coward. Doesn't she have to obey him in everything?
He reached into her clothes, pinched her smooth skin twice, and said:
"Sister Yun, for your dream, I am willing to be your son-in-law!
This way, you can legitimately inherit your uncle's title and become a female marquis!"
Female marquis?
When Si Jinyun heard these two words, he sat up straight, a glint flashed in his eyes, and asked:
"Can I really become a female marquis?"
Zhou Lin nodded and said, "Sure! But..."
Seeing that he was hesitant in speaking, Si Jinyun couldn't help but ask:
"Just what? What does cousin want to say?"
Zhou Lin sighed and said, "It's nothing. It's already great that you can be a female marquis. We don't need anything else."
Si Jinyun frowned slightly and asked:
"If I become a female marquis, won't I be able to obtain everything the Si Mansion has now?
Why would anyone not want it? Why shouldn’t I want it?
Seeing her persistence, Zhou Lin could only say:
"The female marquis can obtain the marquis's title and the current family property.
However, according to Longyin's past practice, a female marquis cannot inherit the marquisate's fiefdom."
He paused, glanced at Si Jinyun, and continued:
“If I were to inherit the Marquis’s family business as a son-in-law, I could inherit everything that the Marquis has intact.
Including, that fiefdom.
However, this originally belonged to you, and there's no need for us to let you miss out on the position of Marquis for that little bit of land."
When Si Jinyun heard this, his eyes dimmed slightly, but he said:
"What my cousin said does make some sense. Let me think about it carefully when I get home."
When Si Jinxing heard this, he stood up.
Zhou Lin actually has such a brain. Is it his own idea or is there someone behind him?
Zhou Lin's voice came from the room again:
"Sister Yun, you smell so good. I've been missing you for a long time. Tonight..."
Si Jinxing took two steps into the yard and looked back at the dim room.
