Chapter 749 Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon



Xiao Jingyun was very sad. The reason why his seventh brother valued friends so much must be because he had no relatives around him in these years. His brothers were thousands of miles away and could not take care of him. He was all alone outside with no one to accompany him. If anyone was nice to him, he would remember it in his heart and think that was a close friend.

Li Chu wanted to say that he was really not a bad person.

But it was obvious that the Xiao family had already regarded him as a villain. If Xiao Qi had not spoken up to protect him, they would have probably kicked him out with weapons.

He wants to leave too.

But Wen Mianmian came.

After many days, when he saw his savior again, all that was left on Li Chu's face was a silly smile.

Wen Mianmian no longer had to pretend. Her cold face was completely inconsistent with her previous delicate and clingy image. Seeing Xiao Qi, she frowned and said, "Who could have injured Mr. Qi like this? I think this injury is fake, right?"

Li Chu's eyes lit up.

Yes! As expected, his benefactor understood him!

"Miss Wen, if you don't speak, no one will think you're dumb." Xiao Jingyun gave her a disgusted look and said, "Seventh brother, you should rest well and stay out of his sight."

His words already regarded Wen Mianmian as the bad woman who seduced the seventh brother.

Otherwise, why would Seventh Brother speak for her and insist on keeping her in the Xiao family?

Wen Mianmian knew who her current backer was, so she was not afraid of Xiao Jingyun at all.

Moreover, as a traitor, she should live one more day. Now that she doesn't have to complete any missions, why should she try to please Xiao Jingyun and read his face?

She snorted softly, glanced at Xiao Jingyun with disdain, and then said, "How could the eldest young master understand the relationship between me and the Seventh Young Master? I feel so uncomfortable when I can't see the Seventh Young Master for a day, and yet I have to come here. The eldest young master is so angry, are you jealous? Are you feeling uncomfortable because I don't look up to you anymore?"

"If it weren't for my seventh brother..." Xiao Jingyun frowned.

"That's it. Since you can't do anything to me, just pretend you didn't see me. Otherwise, if you make me unhappy, I won't give up. Now my life is in danger, and it's only for the sake of Mr. Qi that I haven't broken up with you. Otherwise, for the way you ignored me in the past, I should have responded to you."

Wen Mianmian looked like she was about to rebel.

Before Cheng Hongsui married, she was worried that her husband would be seduced by Wen Mianmian, but now...

Well, no matter what this girl’s background is, her relationship with her husband is absolutely innocent.

Xiao Jingyun turned his head away, too lazy to argue with her.

This person is the favorite of the seventh brother. Now that the seventh brother has become like this, he can only endure it.

"Seventh Young Master." Wen Mianmian changed her expression faster than turning the pages of a book. She sat down next to Xiao Cunyu and handed a purse to him with her little hand.

Xiao Cunyu excitedly opened it, and sure enough, there were two hundred taels of silver notes inside. He was shocked: "You're so fast! It's only been a few days, and you've made so much money? I really wasn't wrong about you!"

"Seventh Young Master protected me for a while, so I should give something back." Wen Mianmian said with a fake smile, "This money should be enough to stay for three to five months, right?"

"Of course there's no problem with just staying overnight, but you have to come here often to predict good and bad luck..." Xiao Cunyu said slowly.

What doesn't Wen Mianmian not understand? Her master may send someone to take her life at any time. If she knows the good and bad luck in advance, she can avoid disaster.

What Xiao Qi meant was that the money was not enough and he had to earn more.

She didn't care. It was good enough to have a place to stay. There were many masters among the servants of the Xiao family, and there were many hidden dragons and crouching tigers. As long as she stayed here, she could sleep well at night.
