Chapter 277 Do you really want to see me take effect of the poison?
Half an hour passed, and even though the person who moved was not Yu Qinghuan, she was tired. She was too lazy to get up and leaned in Cheng Gongjin's arms, playing with the man's hair with her fingertips.
"How many spies do you have in the capital?"
Yu Qinghuan was so curious that he even knew who he had met in Zheng's house.
Cheng Gongjin: "Are you scared?"
Yu Qinghuan shook her head, "No."
I have nothing to hide in front of this person, and I should be afraid of other people.
"Those spies of yours...when my restaurant opens, can I borrow them to gather information?"
Cheng Gongjin's lips curved slightly, "As you wish."
Yu Qinghuan was immediately delighted and hugged Cheng Gongjin tighter, "You are such a nice person."
Cheng Gongjin lowered his eyes to look at her, their eyes met, the atmosphere was very warm, and their hearts gradually became closer. But at this moment, there was a knock on the door.
Xiaoying's voice came, "Master, the young master is here. He just entered the mansion and is walking this way."
Hearing that Mu Huaian was coming, Yu Qinghuan immediately pulled herself out of Cheng Gongjin's arms and sat up.
Cheng Gongjin just watched the woman who was too lazy to move just now, but when she heard that Mu Huaian was coming, she immediately got up from the bed, picked up her clothes and left.
It's really ruthless.
His voice was deep, "Madam Yu is always like this no matter whose bed she sleeps on?"
Yu Qinghuan was about to leave when she heard the voice behind her. She turned around and gave him an awkward smile. "No, I'm just hungry and want to go eat."
Cheng Gongjin: "Then wait for me."
Yu Qinghuan: “…” I don’t really want to wait.
Cheng Gongjin stood up slowly, picked up the clothes on the ground and dressed himself. Yu Qinghuan just watched him like that. She didn't know if it was her illusion, but she seemed to have not seen this man suffer from the poison recently?
"Cheng Gongjin, you seem to have had fewer attacks of the poison recently."
Cheng Gongjin paused, and after hearing her mention this, he realized that it was indeed the case.
"You really want to see me poisoned?"
Yu Qinghuan was choked by his words. It seemed that the frequency of his poison attacks had indeed decreased recently, and he could even joke about such things with her.
The two of them packed up and walked towards the front yard together.
Mu Huaian was just about to go to the backyard to find Yu Qinghuan, but unexpectedly he ran into the two people walking side by side in the front yard. In a trance, he even saw the teacher smiling.
But when he got closer, the teacher still had a stern face, as if he didn't want anyone to approach him. He suddenly thought he must have seen it wrong.
He called out to Cheng Gongjin, "Teacher."
Cheng Gongjin nodded slightly and walked towards the hall.
Mu Huaian walked over to Yu Qinghuan and naturally took her hand. "Why did you come here with the teacher?"
Having just done that with Cheng Gongjin, Yu Qinghuan felt a little guilty when Mu Huaian asked about it. "We met on the road, so we came to have dinner together."
Mu Huaian had no doubts.
Cheng Gongjin paused for a moment, and when he sat down, he glanced at Yu Qinghuan out of the corner of his eye.
The woman who was in his arms just now was now next to Mu Huaian, telling lies one after another without blushing.
The dishes on the table were all Yu Qinghuan's favorites, but she had barely taken a few bites when Cheng Gongjin said, "News came from the palace this morning that His Majesty has fallen ill."
Yu Qinghuan was stunned. Xiao Jinghe was sick?
Mu Huaian frowned slightly. Selfishly, he didn't want Yu Qinghuan to know the news about Xiao Jinghe.
So when he left court today, he told his teacher to keep it a secret from Yu Qinghuan first. When the teacher didn't say anything, he thought she agreed.
But now, the teacher brought it up again in front of Yu Qinghuan.
Yu Qinghuan looked at Mu Huaian, "Are you really sick?"
Mu Huaian responded, "He fell ill right after the morning court session."
Neither of them is stupid. If he was really sick, there would be no morning court today. Xiao Jinghe was probably pretending just to catch Yu Qinghuan, the small fish.
But Yu Qinghuan had really seen Xiao Jinghe sick. When he was in the palace before, this man was so busy that he didn't even sleep. When he fell ill with a cold, he still had to continue to be busy with government affairs.
With such a desperate temper, she had no doubt that he was sick again.
At this moment, she was really worried, so she asked Cheng Gongjin, "Is it serious?"
Cheng Gongjin: "It's not serious."
Cheng Gongjin's news couldn't be false, so Yu Qinghuan felt a little relieved and continued to eat.
Mu Huaian couldn't help but look at the person beside him frequently, worried that she had fallen into Xiao Jinghe's trap, but he couldn't say that Xiao Jinghe was pretending to be sick.
Slandering others and stirring up trouble with such malicious intent is not what a gentleman does.
The dinner was not very pleasant.
Mu Huaian followed Yu Qinghuan back to the yard. When he heard her mention that she had gone to the Zheng family today and was going to open a restaurant, although he was a little worried, he was supportive.
Yu Qinghuan couldn't help but ask, "Won't you look down on me?"
It is said that scholars, farmers, merchants and artisans are the four most important classes, and merchants are looked down upon. She was afraid that Mu Huaian would look down on her and think she was being stupid.
Mu Huaian smiled and rubbed her head. "How could that be? I support whatever you do. It's just that doing business is not easy. If you don't have enough money, I still have more."
Hearing him say this, Yu Qinghuan's heart finally settled down, and she threw herself into his arms, "There's enough money. When I make money, I'll build a golden house and hide you away to raise you."
Hearing this, Mu Huaian was stunned for a moment, then smiled again, "Okay."
He hugged the person in his arms tightly. Even if it was not a golden house, he was willing to be hidden by Yu Qinghuan.
Thinking of what happened last night at the Ningyuan Marquis Mansion, he hesitated for a long time and asked tentatively, "Ah Huan, if Xie Zhiwen comes to you...will you meet him?"
He felt a little uneasy when he thought that Xie Zhiwen, who always loved lively atmosphere, actually locked himself in the yard to learn piano for more than half a year for Yu Qinghuan.
Even though Yu Qinghuan never mentioned Xie Zhiwen to him after being divorced, he knew that it was Xie Zhiwen who pulled Yu Qinghuan out of the quagmire of the Yu family.
So until now, Xie Zhiwen still has some weight in Yu Qinghuan's heart.
Yu Qinghuan was a little dazed when Xie Zhiwen was suddenly mentioned. "Why did you suddenly mention him?"
Mu Huaian smiled faintly and said, "I went to Ningyuan Marquis Mansion last night and saw him."
Yu Qinghuan: "Hmm?"
Mu Huaian was silent for a moment, then said only one sentence, "He has changed a lot."
Yu Qinghuan couldn't think of anything else from this sentence, especially since more than half a year had passed since they moved away and Xie Zhiwen hadn't appeared once.
That's a good thing.
She smiled and hugged Mu Huaian's waist tightly, rubbing her face in his arms, "Don't worry, he won't look for me."
With Xie Zhiwen's personality, if he really missed me, he wouldn't have been able to endure it for so long, so he must have let me go.
Now that you've let it go, why would you still come looking for me?
Yu Qinghuan thought that Mu Huaian asked this because he felt uneasy after meeting Xie Zhili.
Mu Huaian's thin lips moved, but the words were on the tip of his tongue, but he swallowed them back. He closed his eyes, unwilling to think about what had not happened yet.
Although thinking so... is a bit self-deceptive.
