If Chu Dichi knew that she was still alive, and didn't tell him...
Her right eyelid suddenly twitched violently.
The left eye twitching means wealth, the right eye means superstition.
If your faith is firm, misfortune will fade away.
"Ali, I have an idea." Qin Muyu realized that she and the Regent did not seem to be in love with each other, otherwise, she would not have to hide in Jiangnan City.
"What method?"
"Someone wants to harm you. He has set you on fire and drugged you. He has been doing this repeatedly and it seems he will not give up easily. Why don't we lure him into a trap and catch him when the opportunity arises?"
Catch the thief and seize the stolen goods.
When the evidence was conclusive, he would, in the name of the General's Mansion, bypass the prefect of Jiangnan and directly hand the case over to the Dali Temple in the imperial capital.
Even if he couldn't take Chu Yuanchi's life, he would make the whole country know about it and make Chu Yuanchi unable to raise his head in the State of Chu!
Chu Li raised an eyebrow curiously: "How do you ask?"
"us……"
His eyes flickered, "Pretend to get married."
Chu Li was slightly stunned.
"Getting married is the most proud and important thing in life. The eldest prince hates you and will definitely not let you get what you want. He might even do it on your wedding night."
That would be a good opportunity for them to find something to hold against him.
After saying that, as if afraid that she would refuse, he quickly added:
"Ahri, we are just pretending, just like the 'adult games' we played when we were kids."
"I know."
Chu Li patted his shoulder, "This is a good idea, Mu Yu, you are really my good brother."
Qin Muyu opened his mouth dumbly: "..."
Even if it fulfilled a wish hidden deep in his heart.
Even if it's fake.
Even if it was just a dream, only for a moment, it could put a perfect end to his youth.
"Then let's go pick out wedding clothes."
"This is too fast? Mu Xue is still with my second senior brother. Don't you care about your sister anymore?"
Qin Muyu scratched his head, "I forgot."
"…You two are siblings, right?"
"That's absolutely true."
The two of them immediately returned to the Hexi Inn. Chuyi and the others were all waiting in the lobby, standing far away, leaving the second floor alone. No one dared to go up and disturb them without permission.
This is also thanks to Chu Li's wealth and the fact that he booked the entire inn.
It seems that the work upstairs is not finished yet.
Chu Li picked a table and sat down. "Mu Yu, you've been traveling for a whole day and night. Sit down and take a rest. Let's have dinner first."
"good."
The two sat opposite each other.
The meal took about half an hour, but the people upstairs hadn't shown up yet, and they didn't want to disturb them. Chu Li stroked his chin and thought:
"Mu Yu, don't be in a hurry. You are covered in dust. Why don't you go take a shower first?"
Qin Muyu was not in a hurry at all.
As long as he could be with Ali and watch her up close, he would never get tired of it, even if he had to sit there for three days and three nights.
He took a shower and changed into clean clothes, and more than an hour passed.
Why haven’t you come down yet?
Chu Li clapped his hands, paced back and forth a few times, and said:
"Muyu, have you fed your horse? Let's go feed the horse."
"Let's go for a walk to help digest the food."
"us……"
It seems like there is nothing to be done.
Damn it!
How many rose cakes did Second Brother eat?
He should have noticed immediately that the rose pastries were drugged and tasted wrong, but he ate up most of the box.
How could a person who has always been steady, dignified and self-possessed make such a stupid and low-level mistake?
Chu Li's mind suddenly clicked.
etc!
Could he have done it on purpose?
Creak—the door finally opened.
Chu Li stepped forward quickly, "Second Brother, are you okay?"
Lu Yunchu held onto the railing, her pale face showing some fatigue and guilt. Her complicated gaze passed over Chu Li and looked at the young man behind her:
"Brother Qin, I'm sorry. I was careless for a moment and caused a big mistake."
Chu Li was worried about the situation of the two and did not realize that there was anything wrong with calling him "Big Brother". When she realized it after a few days, she found out that the second senior brother was three years older than Qin Muyu.
Qin Muyu looked at him critically.
From head to toe, from appearance to demeanor, speech, upbringing, and manners, his hawk-like sharp eyes swept over him, and he seemed quite satisfied, and the hostility in his eyes was slightly reduced.
Turning his head, he said, "Mu Xue is not a child anymore. She knows what she is doing."
He needn't worry.
"It's my fault, brother. I will make it up to you."
"This is between you and her."
Chu Li didn't care about the two rough guys and quickly ran upstairs and rushed into the house. He saw Qin Muxue wrapped in the quilt, curled up on the bed, her little face flushed, and she looked like she was still unsatisfied.
Damn girl, you eat so well.
"You! I'm so worried about you. You and my second brother have only known each other for two days. I'm really afraid that you'll take the wrong path and ruin your life."
Qin Muxue dared to do this, so she knew her limits.
Besides, she never felt that having had a relationship with Senior Brother Lu meant that she had to be with Senior Brother Lu in this life.
Senior Brother Lu doesn't like her, so she naturally won't use this matter to blackmail him.
Today, when I leave this room, I will pretend that this incident never happened.
Forget all.
In the evening, Chusan prepared a sumptuous meal and stewed a nourishing soup. The four of them sat at the table, eating and discussing business.
But how can the matter of catching a thief be negotiable?
Isn’t Miss Qin’s innocence more important than catching the thief?
Lu Yunchu held the chopsticks with such doubts in his heart, but he found that Qin Muxue didn't mention a word about what happened during the day, as if the person who was breathing intertwined with her and making love with her was not him.
Even Major General Qin didn't mention it.
How come they didn't mention anything about such a big thing?
Is it true that Miss Qin only wanted to repay the favor of saving her life, and has no other feelings at all?
But she clearly said...
The chopsticks were suddenly clenched, making a crisp sound, but it was overshadowed by Qin Muxue's shocked voice:
"Really!"
"Brother Ali, are you going to marry my brother?"
"Pretend, just pretend. Only by using this method can we catch the person who gave us the drugs during the day."
Qin Muxue's mind automatically filtered out other words, leaving only the word "get married".
marriage!
Brother Ali is getting married to her brother!
Very good!
"I'm going to pick out your wedding dresses myself! Come on, eat, and we'll go right after dinner!"
Lu Yunchu pursed his lips.
It was just acting, not her getting married, but she was so excited that people who didn't know her would think she was going to marry Chu Li.
Qin Muxue quickly finished the soup in the bowl, wiped her mouth, excitedly held Chu Li's left hand and Qin Muyu's right hand, and couldn't wait to go to the embroidery workshop.
"Brother Lu, do you want to go with us?"
"I'm not going."
"Okay, let's go then."
"..." Couldn't she just ask again? Was it appropriate for the three of them to play together and leave him alone in the inn?
Lu Yunchu’s chopsticks were almost broken.
Didn’t she claim that she was delicate and frail and couldn’t take care of herself?
After doing that kind of thing during the day, he can still run fast now.
Master is right, women’s mouths are full of lies.
She said she liked him, but it was all fake.
