Chapter 116 Are you jealous?
Seeing Miss Lei fluttering towards Xie Zhili like a butterfly, with a shy look on her face and calling out "Brother Ali", Yu Qinghuan's previous nervousness and guilty conscience disappeared completely.
Look how touchingly this call of "Brother Ali" is.
Xie Zhili was originally having tea and discussing business with his colleagues nearby. Just now, when the carriage passed by, he saw Yu Qinghuan coming out of the shop and immediately asked the coachman to turn back.
After that night, Yu Qinghuan hid from him for several days and never gave him an explanation. I thought she would have lost her appetite, but she was still here picking out jewelry!
Seeing that it was really Yu Qinghuan, he had not yet vented his resentment when Lei Miao came forward to greet him.
Xie Zhili didn't have much impression of Lei Miao. He only remembered that this man was from the Lei family, the Minister of Rites. He had been to the Lei Mansion several times before for some things.
He nodded slightly and walked straight towards Yu Qinghuan with a gloomy face. Now that he had caught her today, he would definitely not let her get away easily.
Lei Miao followed closely, "Brother Ali, why haven't you come to my house recently? I've been waiting for you!"
Previously, Xie Zhili had always come to her house to look for her father, and had helped her pick up a handkerchief. Her father also wanted to match her up with Xie Zhili.
But in the past two months, she has been waiting in the house for Xie Zhili to come and propose marriage, but no one has come. A few days ago, she went to ask her father about this, but her father got very angry and told her not to mention it again.
She didn't even know who Xie Zhili was, and thought she would never see him again. She couldn't even express her love for him, but she didn't expect to meet him on the street today!
Hearing Lei Miao's words, Yu Qinghuan raised his eyebrows. He had even been to the girl's house and looked at how she was waiting. Tsk, Xie Zhili is so lucky.
Xie Zhili frowned slightly. He had been going to Lei Mansion frequently before in order to win over people for the prince.
As for Lei Miao, he just remembered that the girl threw a handkerchief at him for no apparent reason. At that time, because of Lei Sheng, he helped her pick up the handkerchief.
Who knew that this girl would wait for him from time to time on his way out of Lei Mansion, and every time she would say a lot of strange things.
Later he learned that Lei Sheng had been dragging him along because he thought that since Xie Zhiwen was dead, he would have a good chance of inheriting the title, and so he wanted to marry his daughter into the Ningyuan Marquis's Mansion. In fact, Lei Sheng had already been bribed by Prince Rui. When he learned of this, he naturally rejected Lei Sheng's proposal of marriage and stopped associating with Lei Sheng.
Whenever he thought of the time when Yu Qinghuan and Mu Huaian were in love at the manor, which was when he was trying to win over Lei Sheng for the prince, he felt unhappy.
If he had not gone to the Lei Mansion at that time, and returned to the manor early every day to coax Yu Qinghuan into submission, there would be no need for Mu Huaian.
Thinking of this, Xie Zhili didn't want to waste any more words with this person, and said in a deep voice, "I was discussing official business with Lord Lei before. I hope Miss Lei won't say such words that will cause misunderstanding."
After saying this, he no longer paid attention to Lei Miao and walked straight to Yu Qinghuan. His gloomy face softened for a moment when he saw the pink pearl hairpin on Yu Qinghuan's bun. That was the one he picked.
He suppressed his resentment and asked, "Buy jewelry?"
Yu Qinghuan snorted coldly, "What's it got to do with you?"
Xie Zhili was slightly stunned when he noticed Yu Qinghuan's temper. He hadn't even lost his temper yet, so why was she angry now?
Sang Ru, who was standing by, vaguely smelled a sour smell, but before she could investigate, she saw Miss Lei coming up to her again.
Lei Miao saw Xie Zhili's cold attitude towards her, and before she could feel sad, she saw him talking to the woman who had just snatched her jewelry. She was jealous and immediately anxious. She reached out to pull Xie Zhili's sleeve and said, "Brother Li, didn't you say you haven't married yet? Who is this person and what is her relationship with you?"
Yu Qinghuan sighed, he even knew that he didn’t have a wife, they must be very close.
She looked at Xie Zhili with a straightforward look: Why don’t you talk to the girl? What does it have to do with me?
Xie Zhili was already upset because of Yu Qinghuan and Mu Huaian's affairs, and now he was entangled by Lei Miao, which made him even more unhappy. He stared at Lei Miao's hand grabbing his sleeve, his eyes cold and his voice became cold, "Let go."
Lei Miao was startled by his look and unconsciously let go of her hand. Feeling aggrieved, she glared at Yu Qinghuan, wanting Xie Zhili to make the decision for her:
"Brother Ali, this woman stole the jewelry I had my eye on. Hurry and make her return it to me, or my father will not forgive her!"
Hearing this, Xie Zhili's eyes fell on the box in Sang Ru's arms.
Noticing his gaze, Sang Ru immediately hugged him tightly, fearing that the Second Master would listen to the words of the little goblin outside and snatch her things away to show her affection.
Yu Qinghuan didn't want to argue with the little girl, but Xie Zhili's appearance made her lose her temper. "I bought these things for my little maid. Your father is a piece of shit. How dare he be the Minister of Rites after raising a daughter like this? Go back to your hometown as soon as possible."
When she said this, Xie Zhili raised his eyebrows slightly. It had been a long time since he saw her lose her temper like this.
Lei Miao was so angry that his face turned red. The hairpin and earrings that he liked were actually bought for a maid by the woman in front of him. This was clearly humiliating him by putting him together with a lowly maid!
"How dare you humiliate me... I'll have my father throw you in jail!"
Hearing this, Yu Qinghuan almost laughed, "Then hurry up, I'm waiting."
Having said that, she ignored Lei Miao and got on the carriage. Sang Ru was about to follow her but was beaten to the punch by Xie Zhili.
Sang Ru was dumbfounded. The Second Master was too impolite.
When Lei Miao saw the two people entering the carriage one after the other, he guessed that the two must have a close relationship and was so angry that he jumped to his feet.
She gritted her teeth and yelled at the maid next to her, "Why don't you find someone to find out who this person is?"
Bitch, you dare to snatch a man from me, Lei Miao? I won’t let you go!
...
In the carriage, seeing Xie Zhili following him into the carriage, Yu Qinghuan's face suddenly changed, "Are you crazy? What if someone sees us? Get off now!"
What would happen if someone I know saw this?
Xie Zhili didn't take it seriously, "If they see it, it will let everyone know that there is an affair between you and me."
Yu Qinghuan gritted her teeth and glared at him, what a lunatic.
Xie Zhili pressed him coldly, "Don't you want to explain to me what happened that night?"
Yu Qinghuan looked nonchalant, "What else do I need to explain to you?"
"Since you've already fallen in love with the daughter of the Minister of Rites, and you're constantly visiting her house and making her wait for you, please don't get entangled with me anymore, Brother Ali."
She called out "Brother Ali" with a heavy accent, deliberately dragging out the words, and the strong sour taste in her words made Xie Zhili a little stunned.
As if he suddenly realized something, Xie Zhili's Adam's apple rolled slightly. He felt a little unsure, but couldn't help feeling happy.
"You are..." He lowered his voice and leaned closer, "Are you jealous?"
