Chapter 177: The Comfort of Mr. Xiao (2/2)



Xiao Jingxi chuckled and accepted the thanks: "Yeah."

"What are you doing at my grandfather's house today?" For some reason, Ren Yaoqi felt that his tone was much more casual when he spoke again.

Xiao Jingxi pretended to think for a moment: "What do you want to exchange for it?"

Ren Yaoqi: “…”

Xiao Jingxi looked at Ren Yaoqi leisurely and smiled: "Look, I know your family secret history, and then I exchanged mine with you. Now you want to know my private affairs, do you need to give me something in exchange?"

Ren Yaoqi once again felt that Xiao Jingxi, this fox, was not to be messed with! He just couldn't control himself and said something to him, and he was waiting here.

Ren Yaoqi glanced at Xiao Jingxi and said, "Actually, I don't really want to know. Young Master Xiao, there's no need to tell me."

Xiao Jingxi showed regret when he heard this.

Ren Yaoqi was about to get up and say goodbye, but Xiao Jingxi smiled and said, "Don't worry, I didn't plot against your grandparents."

Ren Yaoqi glanced at him and said nothing.

At this time, the door of the west wing opened and Shui Ai walked out.

The little girl didn't know what her grandmother had just said to her. Her eyes were red and tears had not yet dried. Seeing Ren Yaoqi, she walked over and knelt down politely to kowtow to him: "Fifth Miss."

Ren Yaoqi nodded and asked her to stand up.

"It's getting late, I'm going back. Thank you very much, Mr. Xiao." Ren Yaoqi turned around and said to Xiao Jingxi, this time his thanks were much more sincere.

Xiao Jingxi nodded: "Jinglin asked you when to go to her, and she sent someone to pick you up."

Ren Yaoqi remembered that he had made an appointment with Xiao Jinglin to go to the Yanbei Palace to accompany her to learn the piano.

"The day after tomorrow, I'll go back to the Lin family tomorrow."

"The Lin family is in a pretty tight spot, so be careful." Xiao Jingxi said gently.

Ren Yaoqi was stunned for a moment and glanced at Xiao Jingxi. Xiao Jingxi lowered his head to look at the teacup and said it casually.

Ren Yaoqi was not ungrateful. She knew that he was giving her a reminder on purpose, so she knelt down and saluted, then asked Apple and Xiangqin, who were standing far away, to come over.

After saying goodbye to the Zhu family, Ren Yaoqi returned home.

In the carriage, Xiang Qin looked troubled, glancing at Ren Yaoqi from time to time. She remembered her mistress's instructions to keep an eye on the Fifth Miss, so the Fifth Miss's private conversation with Mr. Xiao had made her a little worried that she hadn't fulfilled her master's instructions.

But looking at the calm Fifth Miss and the expressionless personal maid Apple, Xiangqin felt that it would be a bit stressful if she asked.

Finally, when they were about to get off the carriage, Xiangqin, the maid, suddenly remembered that the Third Miss only wanted her to watch over the Fifth Miss and prevent her from having any contact with the Second Young Master Yun. The Third Miss didn't say that the Fifth Miss couldn't talk to anyone else!

As a maidservant with two masters, constantly busy and with little free time, meddling in other people's affairs didn't seem like a good trait. So Xiangqin and Apple remained calm.

The next day, when returning from Baoping Hutong, Rong was very reluctant to leave and talked to Ren Yaoqi for a long time.

Ren Yaoqi didn't really want to go back either. Living at her maternal grandparents' house was much more convenient than living at the Lin family's. However, it was Ren Shijia who asked her to stay in Yunyang City. Even though Ren Shijia agreed to her request, she couldn't go too far.

Even though she disliked her grandmother, she had no choice but to be under the control of the Qiu family. Filial piety was a powerful virtue.

But as soon as she returned to the Lin family, Ren Yaoqi immediately felt that the atmosphere was a little off. This chapter has been read (please click on the next chapter to continue reading!)
