Chapter 798 Brother, what are you angry about?
Ye Xiaoman looked at Shi Zaixing, and her cold eyes changed visibly.
Shi Zai Xing met her and whispered, "I inquired today and learned that the day before yesterday, some unscrupulous disciples of the Tianji Sect used some trickery to rob the monks of your Qingzheng Sect."
He shook the key in his hand and said, "Take this and go to the treasury to retrieve your belongings."
Just as Shi Zaixing finished speaking, he saw a green shadow rushing towards him.
"Really?" Ye Xiaoman said happily as she took the key away from her.
She looked at the key, held it tightly in her hand, and her voice became sweet again.
Shi Zaixing didn't say anything, but there was still an inexplicable resentment in his heart, some of the stinginess of a young person that he thought he would never have.
Ye Xiaoman looked at him, threw herself onto his wheelchair, put her arms around his neck, and rested her face on his shoulder.
She used a coquettish tone, the delicate voice that a cat deliberately makes to ask for fish, and rubbed people with the part of her face where the white whiskers grew.
"Actually, I was really angry with you just now because my senior sister told me this morning that she was swindled out of all her wealth by someone called 'Elder Tian Yao.' I thought you were a bad person."
She whitewashed her snobbish behavior with just one sentence.
At this moment, Zaixing felt uncomfortable.
The "Elder Tian Yao" he played seemed to have really done such bad things.
"I..." He racked his brains to apologize.
Ye Xiaoman interrupted him very considerately. She lifted her face from his shoulder, held his face and looked at it, her eyes red with grievance: "Great, there must be some misunderstanding."
Shi Zaixing could only nod.
It turned out that there was a reason for her coldness, and the resentment in his heart quickly dissipated.
He had no idea that his emotions had been controlled by Ye Xiaoman and were being played with by her from left to right.
He couldn't help but raise his hand, and his wide sleeves, as yellow as dead leaves, wrapped around her thin back, holding her soft body in his arms.
Her warm body temperature quickly warmed his cold clothes, and the comfortable feeling he enjoyed came back.
Is she really my wife?
If, if fate cannot be defied, having her warmth every day doesn't seem so bad.
"Will you come see me tonight?"
The question came out like this.
"No," Ye Xiaoman left him, "It's getting dark, I have to go back and take Senior Sister and the others to the treasure house."
Shi Zaixing's arms became empty and cold again.
He curled his fingers and pinched the corner of his sleeve that she had pressed, where her scent lingered.
Shi Zai Xing asked: "What about tomorrow?"
He found a legitimate reason.
"Don't give up. I'll help you sort out your strategy."
Ye Xiaoman shook her head: "Let's talk about it later."
"Thank you."
After Ye Xiaoman finished speaking, she ran away, following the last ray of sunset light.
Shi Zaixing watched her back disappear at the end of the path, feeling lost, but also relieved that after his efforts, her attitude towards him returned to normal.
At this time, Shi Zaixing's communication symbol flew over.
Qing Yuanhu is now in a situation where the emperor is not anxious at all, but the eunuchs are extremely anxious.
During the final round of selection, in order to prevent the geniuses from getting any help from the outside world, Tianji Gate temporarily refused to receive anyone other than the ten participating teams and completely blocked all information. Therefore, Qing Yuanhu was unable to enter Tianji Gate and did not know what Ye Xiaoman's current condition was.
[Master Shi, how are you? Ye Xiaoman, you look pretty good, don't you?]
Shi Zai walked silently.
He thought that he had known Qing Yuanhu for such a long time, and it was really rare for Qing Yuanhu to run around and work hard for others.
"Why are you so obsessed with her?"
After Shi Zaixing asked the question, both sides were surprised by the hostility contained in his words.
Qing Yuanhu hissed, "Did she offend you?"
Shi Zai Xing said, "She is neither ambitious nor brave."
Qing Yuanhu was stunned for a moment, and an inquiring laugh came from the other end of the communication magic weapon.
"It's rare, Shi Zai Xing, that someone like you would say such mean things about someone. Did she really offend you in some way?"
Shi Zaixing was unwilling to answer, and Qing Yuanhu was very tactful and did not press him further.
He tried to smooth things over, "I apologized to you on her behalf, so please bear with me for my sake..."
Shi Zai Xing interrupted him, "What is your relationship with her? What qualifications do you have to apologize to me on her behalf?"
This sentence is also aggressive and harsh.
Qing Yuanhu bit his cheek lightly, wrinkles forming between his brows. He felt that the situation was a bit tricky. Shi Zaixing sounded very unhappy, even a little unreasonable.
If he didn't know that Shi Zaixing couldn't stand up at all according to his physical condition, he would have suspected that Shi Zaixing was angry and embarrassed because he failed to pursue Ye Xiaoman, and targeted him as a love rival.
Qing Yuanhu still needed help from Shi Zaixing, and he didn't want to ruin his relationship with Shi Zaixing, so he patiently and tactfully maintained the relationship.
"Haven't you figured it out? I lost a lot of money on her and had no choice but to invest in her. If she can't prove her worth in this competition, I'll be losing big. You know that."
γI'm begging you to lend a hand. γ
"She doesn't have any bad intentions. If she's treated you poorly in any way, it's just because she's new and doesn't know how to get along with her elders. Don't be angry. I'll bring her to visit you after the selection process to give you a formal apology."
Shi Zaixing didn't say anything for a long time, just listening to Qing Yuanhu pleading for Ye Xiaoman.
He couldn't describe his sudden emotion. Qing Yuanhu was objectively an innocent victim who became his punching bag. When Qing Yuanhu explained that it was just for investment, he was sure that Qing Yuanhu, as a slippery businessman, had no sincerity, and the anger in his chest finally eased a little.
Nothing.
The selection process must be fair and impartial. I will not favor anyone.
Qing Yuanhu wanted to say something else on the other side, but Shi Zaixing did not give him any explanation and directly pressed the communication symbol to turn off.
The moonlight swallowed up the skylight, another day was about to pass, and there were only two days left for the selection, and the winner would soon be decided.
Ye Xiaoman walked in the night and used the key given by Shi Zaixing to open the treasure house of Tianjimen.
The disciple guarding the warehouse had received Shi Zaixing's order long ago. Without any obstruction, he even pointed out to Ye Xiaoman which shelf the Qing Zhengzong's property was on.
The disciples of the Qingzheng Sect felt as if they were dreaming. βIs the Tianji Sect really willing to refund us?β
Ye Xiaoman was not cheated of her money and was not qualified to enter the treasury. She stood at the door of the treasury waiting, rationalizing her Neptune methods.
"Well, I went to their elders every day to plead for mercy, and finally, because I admitted my mistake and had a good attitude, I was refunded the money."
The fellow disciples were moved to tears, especially Senior Brother Lan, who had bought another cave residence without thinking. Before he was overwhelmed by the monthly loan, the sales contract was directly invalidated.
The feeling of being pulled out of the quagmire of huge debts can only be described as being reborn.
