Chapter 40 How could anyone confess like this?

"…………"

Jing Yi froze in place, feeling himself getting red-hot.

The narrow bathroom could not accommodate two people with red fever, and the scorching heat seemed to be roasting his head, making all his thoughts sizzle.

Jing Yi held his breath, and after preparing himself mentally, he slowly stepped back, his mind in a mess.

Li Wenzhao was...was it...

He stiffly stepped back from Li Wenzhao, not knowing if it was because of the pot of turtle soup, but he felt even hotter, his heartbeat was speeding up, and his face was red as if blood was about to drip out.

Jing Yi couldn't help but glance down, and was shocked again.

So, so grand!

Does your novel setting not care about the life and death of the spouse?

"Big big big big young master." Jing Yi stuttered, not knowing what to say: "I, I, I, I'm going out first, you, you can comfort yourself."

Before Li Wenzhao could say a word, Jing Yi ran out with red ears.

The bathroom door was closed lightly, just like Jing Yi's pounding heart. After leaving the bathroom, Jing Yi pressed against the wall with a red face and ears, unable to recover for a long time.

Before this, Jing Yi always regarded Li Wenzhao as the villain of the novel. Although he knew that they were now flesh and blood and thoughts, he still couldn't ignore the fact that they were NPCs in his heart.

How could NPCs have physiological reactions?

The official match in the novel is not here.

Jing Yi pressed against the wall, his mind kept wandering, and his head was red.

Jing Yi was immersed in a mess of thoughts. After an unknown amount of time, the bathroom door clicked. He was so scared that his neck shrank and he immediately turned over like a salted fish, pressing himself into the corner of the wall.

[I didn't see anything]

[I didn't hear anything]

[Don't call me, don't call me, don't call me...]

"Jing Yi."

"..."

Jing Yi turned over with a click, his eyes wandering and he didn't dare to look at Li Wenzhao. Li Wenzhao looked at the man who tried to merge with the wall, and said in a normal tone, "Are you imitating wallpaper?"

Jing Yi: "..."

He stood up a little straighter and stopped sticking to the wall: "No, I'm hot, it's cool to stick to the wall."

Jing Yi put his hands behind his back and lowered his head, like punishing a student standing in the corner. His shirt was crumpled to a mess, and a pair of long, straight legs were slender and white under the hem of his clothes.

The irritability that Li Wenzhao had suppressed with great difficulty was rising again.

He closed his eyes and didn't look at the dazzling skin in the corner of the wall.

"Don't hide from me like this, isn't this normal?"

Jing Yi looked up blankly, and Li Wenzhao was already dressed neatly, with a normal look on his face, and there was no sign of the loss of composure in the bathroom.

Jing Yi blinked and thought, it seemed quite normal. It would be abnormal if there was no reaction after drinking the tonic soup.

And they were all men, there was no need to be so sensitive.

Right.

Why was he embarrassed?

With him and Li Wenzhao being together day and night and having a very familiar relationship, it was normal for such a thing to happen... right?

"Yes, it's normal." The eavesdropping master Li Wenzhao interrupted the young butler's confused thoughts and stopped him from thinking further.

Jing Yi nodded along with this line of thought: "Yes, that's right, it's normal."

His voice was loud, as if he was trying to convince himself.

Li Wenzhao raised his eyebrows slightly: "Are you still embarrassed?"

Jing Yi shook his head: "Not embarrassed anymore."

"Then go to sleep, we'll take the high-speed train back to Shoucheng tomorrow morning."

Li Wenzhao glanced at him, turned around and left. The housekeeper even sent him to the door attentively, it seemed that he had figured it out.

Li Wenzhao breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't expect that his reaction would be so big, and Jing Yi was scared. The housekeeper was emotionally weak, and all his IQ was used for funny things. In order not to scare people away, he could only temporarily return to the position of employer.

Lest he add fuel to the fire, haste makes waste. After a dry night, Jing Yi still felt a little uncomfortable when he got up in the morning

. On the high-speed train back to the city, Li Wenzhao booked a business class seat. Jingyi was lying on the aisle chatting with Fan Ming. Occasionally, he would go to the other side of the aisle to see the scenery from the window, refusing to look back, leaving Li Wenzhao with an embarrassed and evasive look. "Are the exquisite things over there so beautiful?" Jing Yi didn't even turn his head: "Beautiful." [No awkwardness, pure heart, watching more can also improve health] "..." Li Wenzhao said slowly: "No matter how beautiful the scenery is, if you watch it for two hours in a row..." Jing Yi replied sleekly: "Then wouldn't it be a big profit." He was answered with a sneer: "You will sprain your neck." Jing Yi: "..." He turned back slowly, curled himself up in the recliner, and whispered: "It doesn't matter if you sprain your neck, after getting off the high-speed rail..." Li Wenzhao sat casually, keeping the chair at a comfortable angle. Hearing this, he gently interrupted him: "You can tilt your head to perform performance art, and basically say goodbye to the company of the pillow for some time in the future." Jing Yi: "..." Familiar taste, familiar quarrel. Li Ba Pi is still the same Li Ba Pi. He was overthinking. Li Wenzhao's reaction today was as if he wanted to use the harshest words to kill his subordinates who discovered his secrets, and finally kill them to silence them. The last trace of doubt in his heart was dispelled, and Jingyi calmly laid down his seat and went to make up for the lack of sleep last night. The high - speed rail arrived in the capital at noon, and the driver Uncle Lin was already waiting outside the station. Business trips are tiring, and Li Wenzhao couldn't stand it anymore and wanted to rest for a while, so he directly told Uncle Lin to go home, and Fan Ming would not go with them.

When he got in the car, Jing Yi remembered something, leaned over the door and went in to look through the things.

Li Wenzhao was standing outside watching him fumbling: "What are you doing?"

"Looking for something."

After a moment, Jing Yi found a file bag in the car and ran to Fan Ming: "Here, the secret book that Secretary Zou gave you."

Fan Ming's face was flushed, and he was standing on the side of the road taking medicine with water. Jing Yi frowned: "Secretary Fan, are you sick?"

"No, this is a medicine to reduce fire." Fan Ming said: "If you don't take it on time these two days, you will have a nosebleed."

After two bowls of tonic soup yesterday, he still doesn't feel well until now. It's probably because he has been weak since childhood, and he can't be tonic. He needs to use medicine to calm the excess dryness in his body.

Jing Yi cast a fiery gaze over: "Can I take a picture so I can buy the same one when I go back."

Fan Ming smiled: "Are you also suffering from internal heat?"

Jing Yi thought of the macro view of last night, pursed his lips and shook his head: "I prepared it for the young master, he is more seriously ill."

"..." Fan Ming was silent for a long time, his eyes fell suspiciously on Jing Yi's serious face, after a moment, he couldn't help but ask: "The young master didn't even drink the soup, how could he suffer from internal heat?"

Jing Yi: "......?"

Didn't drink the soup. Then the reaction last night was purely physical desire?

The source of desire is...?

"..." Jing Yi was completely dumbfounded.

[It can't be? It won't be? It shouldn't be? 】

"What can't, can't and shouldn't be done?" Li Wenzhao's voice came from behind, "You are so engrossed in the conversation with Secretary Fan, why don't I find a place for you to sit down and have a good chat?"

Fan Ming immediately waved his hand and stepped back: "No, President Li, the car I booked has arrived."

Secretary Fan slipped away without any reluctance.

Jing Yi was left standing there alone, and under Li Wenzhao's sight, he didn't dare to say a word.

No, it's seriously OOC, isn't it, the author?

This is a typical green romance novel. The big villain also has a vicious official partner. The whole text is nothing but bloody and plain water. Suddenly, it's pure love.

It's not scientific.

And the housekeeper Jing is just a tool man, and the lowest kind of cannon fodder. How can such a low NPC have a love line?

It's not that he is crazy, but the plot is starting to be crazy.

Could this be the legendary butterfly effect? Because he drove away the vicious official's wife, the love line is placed on his head?

Jing Yi looked up at Li Wenzhao in disbelief.

It has been raining these days and the temperature in the capital is very low, but Li Wenzhao seems not to notice the temperature change. He is tall and well-dressed in a suit, standing on the wet road waiting for him patiently, with handsome features.

"Young Master..." Jing Yi touched the tip of his nose, and asked hesitantly among the passers-by: "You last night, um... was it..."

Li Wenzhao stood in front of him, looked at the hesitant look of the young housekeeper, and sighed: "I thought I showed it obviously enough."

Jing Yi: "..."

He was a little dizzy.

He was confused for a while, and then sorted out his thoughts from the mess: "Aren't you heterosexual?"

Li Wenzhao raised his eyebrows: "When did I say I like girls?"

Jingyi: "Then Huo Cenxin..."

Li Wenzhao: "She's just a partner, why do you think I have a crush on her?"

Because that's what the novel says!!!

Li Wenzhao and Huo Cenxin knew each other and loved each other. From Li Wenzhao's point of view, they treated each other with respect after marriage. Why did it suddenly turn?

"I don't like Huo Cenxin." Li Wenzhao said, "I like Jingyi, do you understand?"

Jingyi's heart beat violently, his neck shrank, and he hid his chin in his collar, and said in a muffled voice: "Maybe, I need to calm down..."

Li Wenzhao nodded considerately: "I should."

Jingyi breathed a sigh of relief, and then he heard the person next to him speak again: "How long do you need to calm down?"

Jingyi: "..."

[Who would urge a cooling-off period? ]

He rubbed his chin in his collar: "I don't know, I'll do it as soon as possible..."

"Okay." Li Wenzhao just looked at Jingyi: "Anything else you want to ask?"

Jingyi buried his head and didn't know what to say, his mind was blank, who would confess their feelings so suddenly, he was completely unprepared!

"No, then, then..."

Li Wenzhao walked up and rubbed Jingyi's head, trying to rub him back to normal: "Now, go home first, it's going to rain again soon."

Jingyi was rubbed so hard that he turned around, his whole body was floating. After returning from

a business

trip, the capital slowly entered the autumn and winter seasons, with endless rain and a sharp drop in temperature.

Jingyi's thin arms and legs were not resistant to the cold, so he put on a sweater early, making his whole body furry and soft.

It was another weekend, and Jingyi was sitting in his room making glutinous rice balls.

The little kitten has been raised a lot by Li Mingwen, with a round belly and dry and soft fur on his body. He purred comfortably when Jingyi touched him.

But thinking of Li Wenzhao, his breathing became a little disordered, and his hands also lost their control, and he stroked Tang Yuan in the opposite direction like a lion king.

"Meow~"

Tang Yuan broke away from his hands, squatted in the corner of the wall and licked his fur unsatisfiedly.

Li Mingwei had a rare moment of leisure, so he brought a lot of snacks and wanted to watch a new movie with Jingyi, "Butler Jing, what are you daydreaming about? The movie is about to start."

Jingyi was still listless, "Young Master."

"Huh?" Li Mingwei came over: "Are you worried about something?"

Jingyi paused: "Is it obvious?"

"99% obvious." Li Mingwei said: "What happened to make you so entangled, maybe I can give you some advice."

Jingyi hesitated for a while. He had already gone over the events of the past two days several times. After hesitating for a moment, he tried to speak, his words tangled: "I have a friend..."

Li Mingzhi paused and turned his face away sharply: "Butler Jing, I didn't use this excuse when I was in junior high school."

"..."

Jing Yi rephrased: "My friend has a friend."

Li Mingzhi sat down next to him and tore through the bag of potato chips: "Just tell me, what's wrong with you?"

"..."

"It's okay, Butler Jing." Li Mingzhi comforted him: "I will keep it a secret for you."

Jing Yi always felt that people who said this were essentially loudmouths.

But since there were some things he couldn't find anyone to talk to, he hesitated for two seconds and continued to ask: "What if, my friend's friend, his boss confessed to him..."

"What?!" Li Mingzhi exclaimed: "Butler Jing, are you in love?"

Jing Yi choked suddenly: "Young Master, pay attention to the question, it's a confession, not a love affair."

Li Mingzhi said crazy: "Who is it, Secretary Fan?"

Jing Yi: "No..."

Li Mingzhi said: "Then what are you entangled about? You don't like rejection."

"I..."

Li Mingzhi patted Jing Yi's shoulder, like an experienced person: "Butler Jing, believe me, when you think seriously about this problem, you have already fallen."

Jing Yi's heart skipped a beat.

The next second, his eyes paused, and his attention began to wander: "Young Master, don't think that I don't know that you rubbed the potato chip crumbs on my shoulder."

Li Mingzhi took his hand back embarrassedly.

Outside the room, Li Wenzhao knocked on the half-open door. Li Mingzhi saw that his elder brother had returned, and his desire to share gossip was overwhelming, "Brother, elder brother, housekeeper Jing seems to be in love."

Jing Yi: "..." Li Wenzhao

: "..."

Li Mingzhi: "The object seems to be Secretary Fan!"

Jing Yi: "!!!"

Li Wenzhao raised his eyebrows and locked his eyes with him.

Jing Yi quickly said: "I didn't say it was Secretary Fan."

Li Mingzhi nodded and hummed: "But you have someone you like."

Jing Yi: "..." Li

Wenzhao looked over from a distance.

Jing Yi's neck slowly turned red, and when he was about to say something cunning, Aunt Fang came to Li Wenzhao in a hurry, "Young Master, Young Master is in trouble."

Li Wenzhao turned around and went out: "What happened?"

Aunt Fang ran out of breath, and almost searched Li's house before she found Li Wenzhao in the housekeeper's dormitory. Hearing this, she held her knees and took a breath, and said anxiously: "The third young master just came to get the household registration booklet, and brought a girl back. I think he is going to get the marriage certificate."

Li Mingzhi stood up: "What?!" In the

living

room, Li Ting carefully helped a girl with a slightly protruding belly to sit on the sofa, and considerately put a pillow behind the girl's back to make her sit more comfortably.

Li Ting was acting frivolous most of the time, and it was rare to see him so cautious and slightly nervous.

When Jing Yi and Li Wenzhao walked into the living room, Li Ting was making a phone call to make an appointment for the wedding registration.

Li Wenzhao thought of Jing Yi's words and frowned: "Third brother."

Li Ting hung up the phone: "Big brother, little brother, you are here."

He helped the girl on the sofa up and said with a smile: "This is Xuanxuan, my wife."

The girl smiled shyly: "What are you talking about?"

Li Ting did not hide his affection and helped her up: "We were going to get married, so it's right to call you that."

Xuanxuan lowered her head and chuckled, stroking her slightly bulging belly with her fingers, "Big brother, little brother."

Li Wenzhao's face was not very good.

Li's little brother also stared at the two of them suspiciously.

Only Jing Yi stood in the corner, daydreaming.

[Xuan Xuan.]

[Xuan Xuan?]

[The name sounds familiar... Her full name is Yuan Ting Xuan, right?] Li

Ting's pupils trembled. How did Butler Jing know that?

Since he had brought her back, Li Ting had already made preparations to protect his lover from slander, so he deliberately concealed her last name when introducing her, and only said her nickname, just to prevent Butler Jing from misunderstanding his lover.

Unexpectedly, he still couldn't escape.

Thinking of the miserable end of his second brother and younger brother, Li Ting stood up, "Brother, we agreed to get the marriage certificate this afternoon, and come back later for the reunion dinner."

"Sit down." Li Wenzhao said expressionlessly.

Li Ting pursed his lips.

Miss Yuan Tingxuan noticed that the atmosphere was not right, and took the initiative to pull Li Ting to sit down, with a very sensible and kind attitude: "A Ting, the eldest brother should have something to say, let's wait for a while."

She sat down with difficulty, holding her stomach.

Li Mingzhi asked: "Third brother, did your girlfriend eat too much?"

Li Ting glared at him fiercely: "What nonsense, your sister-in-law is pregnant, you will have little nephews and nieces to play with, this is a big deal for the Li family."

Jing Yi looked at Li Ting from a distance.

A person who usually looks smart and serious will become crazy and stupid as soon as he touches the main line, and he is no longer like his original appearance.

Is this the force majeure of the novel world?

[I really want to wake up the third young master with a carrot. 】

Li Wenzhao: "..." Li

Ting: "..."

Yuan Tingxuan stroked her belly with a gentle face and smiled softly: "A Ting is right, brother, we really love each other, it's all my fault, I missed A Ting too much, I went abroad for three years, during this period I missed him all the time, after returning home I made an appointment with A Ting, that night we both drank too much..."

Li Ting's face was full of emotion, he wanted to fly to the Civil Affairs Bureau to stamp and get the certificate immediately.

Jing Yi hid in the corner eating melons, and could

n't help but sigh when he heard it. [Why do you blame all accidents on being drunk? You got a child after drinking once. Is alcohol also a spirit? It can also help people get pregnant, then all hospitals that treat infertility should not be opened, okay? 】

"..."

Li Ting glanced at Jing Yi angrily.

[And her belly isn't that big, is it? It's not even as obvious as mine. Why does she look like she's pregnant, as if she's afraid that others won't notice the gold ingots in her belly...]

[Isn't that too exaggerated, Third Master? ]

Li Ting: "..."

Li Wen asked Showa Riki Mingzhi and cast an approving look at the corner at the same time.

Jing Yi's complaints, after all, didn't reveal much of Yuan Tingxuan's flaws. Compared to Ning Jiang and Qiu Xinzhi, Li Ting felt that his baby was already as beautiful as an angel.

He felt relieved, carefully held Yuan Tingxuan's hand and said softly: "Don't worry Xuanxuan, I will give you and the child an explanation."

Yuan Tingxuan nodded: "A Ting, I believe you."

Li Ting seemed to be greatly encouraged, and turned around: "Brother, I have decided, I know what I am doing, I am very clear-headed, I want to marry Xuanxuan, please support and bless us."

Li Wenzhao didn't say anything, and tapped his fingers on the armrest of the sofa.

Several bodyguards immediately walked in from outside the door: "Young Master."

Jing Yi turned his head in confusion: "???"

[How did the bodyguards get in? ]

[Where is the summoning button? Is this the summoning power of the top boss...] Li

Ting's face immediately became ugly: "Brother. Are you sure you want to do this?"

"It's not too late to leave after listening to it." Li Wenzhao meant something.

Li Ting turned to look at Butler Jing hiding in the corner, gritted his teeth, endured it, and comforted Yuan Tingxuan to sit back on the sofa.

Yuan Tingxuan was a little confused: "What's wrong, A Ting?"

Li Ting didn't say anything, but shook his head. He just wanted Butler Jing to finish his nagging quickly so that he could get the marriage certificate before getting off work.

Yuan Tingxuan saw the strange and stagnant atmosphere in the Li family, frowned, and the next second, she held her belly and exclaimed: "Oh."

Li Ting was nervous for a second: "What's wrong, what's wrong?"

Yuan Tingxuan touched her belly: "Ah Ting, the baby suddenly kicked me just now."

Li Ting heard it, and her face was instantly surprised: "Aunt Fang, Aunt Fang, quickly make two bowls of chicken soup for the young lady to nourish her. Foreign meals are not nutritious. Make two Yuncheng flavors for dinner. The young lady likes it."

Jing Yi was speechless.

[No, sister, your belly is only the size of an almond. Even if you are pregnant, it's not time for fetal movement. Do you think we are fools for reading novels? 】

【Oh yes, I remember now, this kid is actually——】

"Wait a minute!"

An anxious voice suddenly came from outside the door, and a group of people looked out.

Li Xu came back in the heavy rain.

His shoulders and trousers were wet by the rain, but he didn't care. He rubbed his wet hair and sat down next to Li Wenzhao.

"Okay, let's start."

"..."
