Seeing Ren Yaoqi's expression, Xiao Jingxi knew that she was a little shaken, and joked: "Don't worry, I won't withhold your maid and return her in a year."
Ren Yaoqi couldn't help but laugh, and after thinking about it, he nodded and said, "Okay."
When Xiao Jingxi saw that she agreed, he couldn't help but curl the corners of his mouth.
Apart from anything else, Ren Yaoqi was willing to hand over her future personal maid and capable assistant to him, which clearly showed that she trusted him very much. As for why he wanted to take Ren Yaoqi's future personal maid and capable assistant first, Xiao Jingxi's little thoughts were only known to him.
"I'll let Nanxing pick someone up later." Xiao Jingxi said with some joy in his voice.
Ren Yaoqi glanced at Xiao Jingxi and said nothing.
The two of them came to the intersection and couldn't help but stop. Xiao Jingxi glanced at Ren Yaoqi, and Ren Yaoqi also looked at him. They were silent for a moment, and Ren Yaoqi said softly, "I'm going back."
Xiao Jingxi smiled and suddenly raised his hand to touch Ren Yaoqi's face. Ren Yaoqi was startled and didn't dare to move at that moment. Xiao Jingxi's hand moved slightly upwards to stop at her temple. Then he quickly plucked a plum blossom that had been accidentally blown onto her hairline. He smiled at her with a childish cunning.
Ren Yaoqi's face flushed slightly, and her heartbeat was a little faster. After realizing that she had been teased, she couldn't help but glare at him. At this time, Nanxing and Ren Yaoqi's two maids had quietly approached, and Ren Yaoqi didn't say anything more.
"I'm leaving." she said softly.
Xiao Jingxi nodded, stepped aside, and let Ren Yaoqi leave first.
Ren Yaoqi lowered her head and walked along the road with her maid. Only when Ren Yaoqi disappeared into the plum forest did Xiao Jingxi take Nanxing away from another road.
Ren Yaoqi returned along the same route, but before she reached the warm room where the young ladies had gathered before, she heard a commotion at the lake not far ahead, and it seemed that there were maids screaming.
Ren Yaoqi paused and frowned.
Sang Zhen asked, "Miss, do you want to go take a look?"
Ren Yaoqi shook his head without thinking: "No, let's go back. We'll know what happened later."
She was not a curious person, and she also understood that one should not stay in a place where right and wrong should be avoided. After saying this, she turned around and left.
After only a few steps, footsteps were heard in front.
Ren Yaoqi looked up and saw someone approaching from the corner not far away. She was stunned and paused. The man walked quickly, his brows slightly furrowed, but the corner of his mouth was slightly raised. Although he looked like he was smiling, his smile was full of sarcasm, making him look a little cynical and impatient.
Ren Yaoqi didn't expect to meet him here suddenly.
The man saw Ren Yaoqi in a blink of an eye, and his steps paused, but his eyes suddenly brightened. His originally furrowed brows instantly smoothed out, and the sarcastic smile on his face became sunny.
He kept walking, his long legs and fast steps, and in the blink of an eye he was in front of Ren Yaoqi.
