Chapter 386: Caught by Pei Xuanyi
Qin Xixi hid in the dark and heard the conversation between Pei Xuanyi and Zhao Shuoer clearly. She couldn't help but admire Pei Xuanyi's wit and calmness, and was also surprised by Zhao Shuoer's change.
Of course, the most shocking thing was that Zhao Shuoer drugged her brother and finally made her brother and Wen Yanya have a fait accompli...
But Xixi has always been open-minded. Since her brother was going to marry Wen Yanya, this incident also made Zhao Shuoer change his mindset. Although it was a bit shameful to say it out, little Xixi still felt relatively satisfied.
She looked at Zhao Shuoer's receding back, and a complex emotion surged in her heart.
Although Zhao Shuo'er had done something wrong before, she is now willing to turn over a new leaf, which in itself is something worthy of praise.
Qin Xixi looked towards the direction of the room again. Although she was worried about Qin Qixuan and Wen Yanya, she also felt inexplicably happy, like the relief after the dust settled.
However, Zhao Shuo'er had to hold Zhao Zemo back, and he had to find a way to rescue Qin Qixuan and Wen Yanya from this turmoil...
She prayed silently in her heart, hoping that Qin Qixuan and Wen Yanya would be safe.
At this moment, she suddenly heard a burst of hurried footsteps.
Then a familiar figure appeared in her sight. Qin Xixi was startled and subconsciously wanted to hide, but it was too late.
"I told you that Xixi should just wait at the banquet, why did you follow me anyway?"
Pei Xuanyi pulled little Xixi out helplessly, but he didn't want her to stay here and continue listening to the sounds in the room, so he could only take her away and go somewhere else.
But he didn't forget to leave the guards behind.
"Wait for Young Master Qin... um, it's over, then send Young Master Qin and Miss Wen back to the Qin Mansion together, and remember to hide your whereabouts."
After Pei Xuanyi made all the arrangements, he took Qin Xixi and quietly left this place of trouble. The night was like water, and the moonlight sprinkled on them, adding a bit of mystery to this quiet night.
Pei Xuanyi brought Xixi to the lake and instructed his subordinates beside him.
"Go tell Zhao Zemo that I have taken Qin Qixuan and Qin Xixi back, so that they don't have to worry anymore."
The subordinate nodded and quickly left to carry out the order.
Pei Xuanyi stood by the lake holding little Xixi, looking at the twinkling stars in the night sky, his heart still a little turbulent.
But Qin Xixi recalled everything she had just heard, and couldn't help but complain in her heart.
[Little grandson, do you think I didn't hear it? Xixi heard everything just now. ]
Thinking of this, little Xixi couldn't help but admire Zhao Shuoer.
[This Zhao Shuo'er, I originally thought she was just a proud lady, and she wouldn't have much enthusiasm for my eldest brother. I didn't expect that she could do this for love. She is really infatuated... Well... If she can become my sister-in-law, it is not impossible...]
Qin Xixi thought silently in her heart, with a smile on her face. But then, she shook her head again, thinking that her idea was too absurd.
My eldest brother doesn't like Zhao Shuo'er. Even if Zhao Shuo'er marries him, she will only stay alone in an empty room.
And Sister Wen is also very good and gentle, and my eldest brother likes her very much. Besides, too many things have happened between Sister Wen and my eldest brother.
Pei Xuanyi felt a little helpless listening to little Xixi's voice. After all
, Xixi is still young and doesn't understand such love affairs very well.
Xixi is so insensitive to emotions, his future life...
Pei Xuanyi quickly stopped thinking and couldn't help but smile bitterly. Why did he start to have wild thoughts recently? This is not a good thing.
Pei Xuanyi took a deep breath, slowly withdrew his thoughts, and cast his eyes gently on Qin Xixi beside him. She saw an innocent smile on her face, like the warm sunshine of spring, which instantly dispelled a trace of haze in his heart. He stretched out his hand and patted Qin Xixi's back gently.
"Xixi, it's late at night, let's go back."
Qin Xixi nodded, leaned obediently in Pei Xuanyi's arms, and the two walked towards the Qin Mansion together. In the night, their figures seemed particularly harmonious.
Back to the Qin Mansion, Qin Shu had been waiting in the mansion for a long time. She was relieved to see Qin Xixi return safely, but there was still a trace of worry on her face.
"Thank you, His Royal Highness, for sending Xixi back, but Qixuan..." Qin Shu asked worriedly.
Qin Shu had been following the events at the banquet. Although the news was not very accurate, it seemed that the problem had been solved. But why didn't they see Qin Qixuan and Wen Yanya return?
Pei Xuanyi naturally noticed Qin Shu's worry.
But Pei Xuanyi was an outsider of the Qin Mansion after all, so it was not good for him to relay the news.
What's more, Qin Qixuan might not want Qin Shu to know about this. If he acted on his own and did something bad with good intentions, it would be bad.
Many thoughts flashed through Pei Xuanyi's mind, but in the end he just nodded slightly to show that he understood Qin Shu's concerns. However, he did not directly answer Qin Shu's question, but chose a more tactful way.
"You just need to prepare for the marriage of Brother Qixuan and Miss Wen as soon as possible." As soon as Pei Xuanyi finished speaking, Qin Shu's face showed a puzzled expression. She didn't understand why Pei Xuanyi said that, but her intuition told her that there must be some hidden story.
Pei Xuanyi left after he finished speaking, leaving Qin Shu standing there in confusion.
Since Pei Xuanyi said that, it must mean that Qin Qixuan and Wen Yanya are safe, but why didn't Pei Xuanyi say it directly?
Qin Shu originally wanted to wait for Qin Qixuan to come back. She had asked Qin Qixuan in person. Unexpectedly, as soon as she turned around, little Xixi's thoughts betrayed her elder brother.
[Oh, elder brother and sister Wen were drugged by Zhao Shuoer. The matter is being investigated in Jinnan Palace! But Zhao Shuoer has held Zhao Zemo back. Big brother and the others should be back soon! ]
Qin Shu: ...
She never thought that this matter would be so complicated. She turned and looked at Qin Xixi, only to see that the little girl had an innocent look on her face, as if she didn't know what important information she had just leaked.
Qin Shu couldn't help but sigh in her heart. This little girl is really a little devil. She even knows such things.
It must be said that Xiao Xixi's words this time were too informative. Qin Shu could not help but stand there in a daze for a long time.
In other words, Qin Qixuan and Wen Yanya consummated their marriage before their wedding?
No wonder Pei Xuanyi asked her to prepare for their wedding as soon as possible...
Even Qin Shu, who is so experienced, feels that this matter is a bit difficult.
