Chapter 13 Let the older brother see if this guy really has a penis.
Inside the room, the group continued their work.
Su Xiaoyu was a little dizzy from the smell of the pear blossom liquor, her face flushed. Her mind was only on the plate of Longjing shrimp that she hadn't finished eating. She didn't take Zhao Rui and Sun Wei's nonsense to heart at all.
Xiao Jingxuan still remembered to maintain it.
He stood in front of Su Xiaoyu, laughing and scolding, "Go away! Stop making fun of my people! If you keep talking nonsense, I'll get angry!"
Zhao Rui, feeling intoxicated, noticed something was off about Su Xiaoyu the more he looked at her.
Her skin was almost too white, her neck was slender, her earlobes were rounded, and especially her shy, demure expression...
He was seven or eight parts drunk, and reached out to Su Xiaoyu, wanting to touch her face:
"Oh dear, you're protecting him now? Let me see if this one's even a guy..."
Xiao Jingxuan's expression changed, and he was about to push Zhao Rui away forcefully.
"Bang!"
The door to the private room was pushed open from the outside, letting in a gust of cold wind. The air inside seemed to freeze instantly.
Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw a tall figure standing against the light at the doorway. He was dressed in a scarlet official robe, which made him look even more handsome, dignified, and extraordinary.
What was most surprising was that the newcomer had a cold and stern face, his eyebrows and eyes were covered with a layer of frost, and he exuded a low pressure, as if he had frozen the smell of alcohol and the noise in the room in an instant.
Who else could it be but Xiao Jingheng?
Xiao Jingxuan recognized his elder brother at a glance. His face turned pale instantly, all color drained from his eyes, and the wine glass in his hand crashed to the ground, spilling wine everywhere.
"Big...Big Brother!"
Xiao Jingxuan was so shocked that he could barely speak.
Zhao Rui and Sun Wei were both terrified, and their drunkenness instantly sobered them up. Their tongues were practically tied in knots.
"Young Master Xiao..."
Good heavens! This young master Xiao has such a terrifying aura. No wonder he became the Vice Minister of the Court of Judicial Review at such a young age.
Startled by the commotion, Su Xiaoyu, who was engrossed in eating fish, looked up. Upon seeing who it was, she jolted awake, her drunkenness instantly dissipating, and instinctively tried to crawl under the table.
And in fact, she did just that.
However, she was stopped by Xiao Jingxuan halfway through the tunnel. He grabbed her collar and refused to let go.
Xiao Jingheng remained silent.
He didn't even come in; he just stood at the door with a blank expression, his unfathomable eyes, like an icy pool, slowly sweeping over the three of them.
Zhao Rui and Sun Wei's legs were trembling. They exchanged a terrified glance, and almost simultaneously, forgetting all etiquette, they hastily cupped their hands in Xiao Jingheng's direction, their tongues tied in knots:
"Young Master Xiao, I have matters to attend to at home, so I must take my leave now!"
"Yes, yes, yes, farewell! Farewell!"
After saying that, without waiting for any reaction, the two of them, as if being chased by ghosts, slid out along the door and practically tumbled and crawled away, disappearing in an instant.
Inside the private room, only Xiao Jingxuan, who was holding Su Xiaoyu tightly, Su Xiaoyu, and the "iceberg" at the door exuding a chilling aura remained.
Xiao Jingxuan felt a chill run down his spine, his brain raced, and his survival instinct instantly reached its peak!
Suddenly, a brilliant idea flashed into his mind.
Suddenly, he grabbed Su Xiaoyu and shoved her forward, explaining hastily before his older brother could speak:
"Big brother! You, you listen to me! It's not my fault! It's, it's her!"
He pointed at Su Xiaoyu, "It's Su Xiaoyu. She said she's never left the manor before and is curious about the excitement outside. She insisted that I take her out to see the sights. I... I had no choice..."
Su Xiaoyu was stunned!
She stared at Xiao Jingxuan in disbelief, her almond-shaped eyes wide with astonishment.
What?! The second young master is actually trying to shift the blame onto me! He was the one who wanted to go to the gambling den, and he even dragged me along as his assistant. Now, he's putting all the blame on me! That's outrageous!
How could they pass the buck so swiftly and smoothly?
Oh, so you're the only one afraid of the young master? I'm just a lowly maid, why wouldn't I be afraid?
[Waaaaah, Second Young Master, how could you talk such nonsense! o(╥﹏╥)o]
Su Xiaoyu was screaming and shouting inside her.
But when she met Xiao Jingheng's icy gaze, she was so frightened that she didn't dare to utter a single word.
She could only struggle instinctively.
At this moment, Xiao Jingxuan lowered his voice and whispered quickly in her ear, "Quick! Help me get through this, or we'll all die!"
"Help me cover for this! This month, no, for three months! I'll buy all your roast chicken! Plenty to go!"
Su Xiaoyu: "..."
Three months?
All-you-can-eat roast chicken?
this……
Looking into Xiao Jingxuan's anxious eyes, filled with a will to survive, and feeling the piercing gaze from the doorway that seemed to freeze her to the bone, she was engaged in a silent battle of wits.
Reason told her that she shouldn't agree to this absurd decision.
But a voice inside me was telling me something.
Three months, roast chicken!
"Gurgle!"
Su Xiaoyu swallowed hard.
At this moment, Xiao Jingheng stepped into the house, his crimson official robe sweeping across the threshold, bringing with it a cool breeze.
His gaze fell on Su Xiaoyu, and a faint smile appeared on his lips.
"Su Xiaoyu, is what he said true?"
This question was like a needle, making Su Xiaoyu shudder.
Perhaps it was the strong aftertaste of that 'pear blossom white' liquor, perhaps the temptation of roast chicken for three months was too great, or perhaps the fear of facing the young master overwhelmed everything...
In short, in a flash, Su Xiaoyu acted impulsively, and the string called "reason" snapped!
Almost instinctively, she knelt down in front of Xiao Jingheng with a thud!
Before Xiao Jingheng could react, she slid forward on her knees and grabbed his thigh, pressing her face directly against his cool official robe.
"Young Master! This servant knows she was wrong! Waaah..."
Fueled by the alcohol and her overwhelming fear, she managed to squeeze out a few tears and burst into loud sobs.
"It's all my fault! It's all my fault! I insisted on pestering the Second Young Master to take me out to see the world! I'll never do it again! Please, Your Highness, forgive me and the Second Young Master this time! Waaah..."
She cried, tears and snot streaming down her face, all of which smeared onto Xiao Jingheng's expensive, perfectly wrinkle-free official robe. It was as if this would increase her pitifulness.
Xiao Jingheng froze completely!
He could clearly feel the warmth coming from his legs, and the girl's body trembling as she cried.
She held on tightly, as if grasping at the only straw.
This haphazard, almost shameless way of begging for mercy was something he had never experienced in over twenty years.
He had seen too many sophistry in officialdom and cries in prison, but no one had ever dared to... cling to his leg like Su Xiaoyu!
Xiao Jingxuan, standing to the side, was so shocked that his eyes almost popped out of his head.
