Chapter 57: Scheming Beauty vs. Dark Minister 019

Chu Li waited obediently at home for Xie Huai'an to come home.

This was the first time she was looking forward to a man coming back.

At night, summer cicadas chirped along with Xu You's calls, and the willow branches in front of the yard swayed in the wind.

The blue sky was also shrouded in darkness.

The weather is a bit hot and humid, and it seems like it's going to rain.

Hatsuri took a stool and sat in front of the door waiting.

After a while, there were footsteps outside the door.

Chuli stood up, rolled up her robe and walked towards the door. The moment the man turned around, she threw herself into his arms.

Greedily absorbing the scent of the man.

She was soft and partial, blinking her big eyes and looking at him charmingly, and asked coquettishly: "How did you find my aunt?"

Hatsuri likes her hug and being intimate with him.

Xie Huai'an stood there in a daze.

Today he was dealing with some people in the court who were disobedient to the emperor, and he completely forgot to help Chuli deal with her aunt's affairs.

Seeing a man, she kept silent.

Hatsuri realized that something was definitely wrong.

So she loosened her embrace and asked very seriously: "Did you forget?"

Xie Huai'an avoided the topic and carried her into the room.

"Didn't you say you don't have to wait for me if it's too late?"

Chuli's face darkened. She knew from his behavior that he was not helping her.

But she was not angry, but she wanted to tease this powerful official.

Hatsuri let go of his hand and took a step back from him, her face full of anger and her hands on her hips to show that the situation was serious.

He said solemnly: "Xie Huai'an, do you not take my words to heart?"

Hearing her calling my name, I actually felt happy.

Xie Huai'an pretended to be calm and sat aside, pouring himself some water and drinking it sip after sip.

But his majestic aura remains unchanged.

But facing Hatsuri's question, he even faltered in his tone: "I never make mistakes when doing things. I have already asked my subordinates to look for it. Don't worry."

Chu Li looked at him suspiciously and said, "You don't even know what my aunt looks like, how are you going to find her? Are you lying to our powerful minister now?"

Xie Huai'an didn't even know about this.

Normally he thinks he is a smart person.

How could I fall for a woman's words?

"Then do you have any qualities that represent your aunt? I can help my people find them quickly."

"I knew you were going to lie to me. Fortunately, I had prepared something for you."

Finally, Hatsuri confidently took out a portrait, which she had painted herself.

She has never thought that she can draw so beautifully.

Xie Huai'an breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this.

But the next second, he held his breath.

My pupils are almost dizzy. The person in this painting is completely abstract.

I can't tell what this is...

He wanted to ask but didn't dare to, for fear of undermining Chuli's self-confidence.

Seeing that he was silent, Chuli asked, "What's wrong?"

"Hatsuri, please accompany me to look for it tomorrow."

Chuli held the portrait in front of him and pointed at it, saying, "Can't you see it? This is my aunt's portrait. Although it's a little ugly, I drew out all the obvious points on her face."

Xie Huai'an:……

"That's good. I'll look for it tomorrow."

When Chuli saw that he agreed to her, she took the initiative to kiss him on the cheek.

This actually caused the man to react.

"How about?"

Hatsuri immediately shook her head and refused: "No, this is harmful to my health. I have been feeling sleepy recently and I always feel like I have caught a cold, so I can't do that."

Xie Huai'an touched her forehead, then her little hand, and said worriedly, "Your temperature is indeed a little too high. Should we go to the hospital tomorrow?"

Chu Li waved her hands: "No need, my mother makes medicine every day and I can have some, it's medicine to increase physical strength."

After all, she deliberately whispered in Xie Huai'an's ear: "It's better to increase your medicine~"

After saying that, he looked down at him.

Just get away with it.

The second day.

Chuli refused to go with him no matter what, saying that she was afraid of her aunt and didn't dare to see her.

Xie Huai'an naturally didn't believe her reasons.

But when he held the portrait in his hand and placed it in front of everyone.

Everyone present was stunned.

Xie Huai'an ordered: "You, all of you, must take this portrait to find this person and bring her to me."

Subordinate A: "No, boss, is this a human? It's more terrifying than a monster."

Subordinate B: "Who painted this? Has the skill of our Kyoto painters become so sloppy now? It's so abstract."

Subordinate C: "This is really a test of my eyes."

Xie Huai'an raised his eyes with a cold look, and said to them with a dark face: "Stop talking nonsense, just go find it."

The subordinates were forced to set out to find this man.

I don't even know if it's a boy or a girl.

Hatsuri felt really bored after staying in the house for a few days.

I had no choice but to go out for a walk, prepare to buy some food, or prepare to see if there is a suitable job for me.

When she was enjoying a pile of food in her hands, suddenly a person who looked very familiar appeared in front of her.

Hatsuri was completely stunned.

The delicious food in your hand suddenly loses its fragrance!

Isn't this my aunt?

How come he appeared before my eyes?

She saw her aunt with a group of people, looking at her with a dangerous smile on her face.

I haven't seen my aunt for a few months. She looks so much older.

Hatsuri took a step back, but someone behind her stopped her.

She looked back and saw that it was her aunt's people.

The aunt had been keeping an eye on her these past few days. She had known for a long time that Hatsuri was going to marry into a wealthy family, and that day she sent people to show off that they had been searching for a long time but had not found the body.

If he's alive, I want to see him in person; if he's dead, I want to see his body.

Because Hatsuri did not agree to marry the old man, he asked her to return the money and even destroyed everything in the house.

So he wrote to his relatives in Kyoto, threatening to cause a big commotion, threatening him and making his family uneasy.

I knew where Hatsuri was.

After much trouble, I came to Kyoto and finally found out where it was. However, I found out that Hatsuri was in the place where a famous and influential person in Kyoto was.

She didn't dare to act rashly.

"Hatsuri, you really made it easy for my aunt to find you. How come you have such a good life but you still don't appreciate my kindness? Now that you have married such a rich man, why didn't you tell my aunt? My aunt has been looking for you. She thought you were dead on the cliff and sent people to look for you for several days and nights."

Chu Li saw that she was not afraid of her, but mainly because this person was too extreme and she might do something bad.

"What do you want to do?"

My aunt was very dissatisfied and said in a somewhat unhappy tone: "What's the matter? We haven't seen each other for a long time, and you don't even know how to call me aunt?"

Hatsuri was surrounded by them and had no way to escape.

All I heard was my aunt saying, "You've really grown up and become so rude. Don't blame me for being rude to you."
