Chapter 1001 I will definitely change this time!
Luo Qinghan didn't know how long he had been standing there.
It could be seen from his gloomy expression that he must have seen the scene where Chu Jian saved Xixi just now.
Xiao Xixi couldn't help but shrink her neck.
But she quickly straightened up again.
She didn't do anything wrong. She and her junior brother just hugged each other. Why should she feel guilty? !
Baoqin, who was standing nearby, saw this scene and couldn't help but break into a cold sweat.
She prayed silently, hoping that the Imperial Concubine would be smarter and not confront him head-on at a time like this. Being too forceful in the face of a jealous man would only deepen the misunderstanding. Using gentleness to overcome strength was the most cost-effective solution!
Baoqin winked at the imperial concubine, hoping that she could get her hint.
However, Xiao Xixi's signal receiver seemed to be on strike, and she didn't notice the eye signals sent by Baoqin at all.
Facing Luo Qinghan's gloomy gaze, Xiao Xixi directly put on a righteous posture and spoke with full energy.
"What are you looking at? He was the one who hugged me first. It has nothing to do with me!"
Baoqin was stunned.
Although she was telling the truth, she said it without hesitation, which gave people the illusion that she was a scumbag.
Luo Qinghan: "You can avoid him."
Xiao Xixi: "I really wanted to dodge, but he was too fast. I didn't react in time and was suddenly hugged by him. Don't look at me like that. Although my body has been hugged by someone, the person I love most in my heart will always be you!"
Luo Qinghan: “…”
Baoqin covered her face silently, unable to bear to watch any longer.
There is only one woman in the world who can so confidently cheat on the emperor!
The corners of Luo Qinghan's mouth rose slightly, revealing a faint smile that was hard to tell whether it was real or fake.
"Is that so?"
Xiao Xixi nodded vigorously: "Yes, yes! I love you, just like a mouse loves rice!"
Luo Qinghan walked towards her slowly: "Love is not just about words, you have to show it to me."
Xiao Xixi's way of expressing love is to share delicious food with the other person.
She was just about to hand over the plum blossom cake in her hand when she saw Luo Qinghan leaning over and kissing her.
Baoqin immediately lowered her head and retreated quietly.
The next morning.
As usual, Fang Wujiu came to check Xiao Xixi's pulse.
He placed his fingertips on Xixi's wrist, feeling the beating of her pulse.
Xiao Xixi was a little nervous.
When she finished taking his pulse, she immediately asked, "Did you know that my junior brother passed away yesterday?"
Fang Wujiu: "I know."
Xiao Xixi wanted to say something else but was interrupted by Fang Wujiu.
He asked in a deep voice: "Did you tell fortunes for someone yesterday?"
Xiao Xixi quickly denied: "No!"
Fang Wujiu looked at her steadily, his eyes calm but with a hint of sharpness.
"Your pulse is weaker than yesterday. You must have had your fortune told yesterday. Did you ignore my warning?"
Xiao Xixi shrank her neck and stammered in defense: "I, I just made a random calculation, and I don't feel any discomfort in my body."
Fang Wujiu: "Since you think what I said is unimportant, then I don't need to care about your affairs anymore."
After saying this, he was about to leave in anger.
Xiao Xixi quickly grabbed his sleeve and begged with eyes wide open.
"I was wrong, don't be angry, big brother."
Fang Wujiu said coldly: "This is your own business, why should I be angry?"
Xiao Xixi: "I know you are doing this for my own good, and I shouldn't disobey you, but I really want to help you. The situation is getting more and more complicated. We know that the people from Tianmen are doing this in secret, but we can't catch them. I feel very uneasy. I'm afraid that if we let it continue like this, the situation will become more and more unfavorable for us."
Fang Wujiu looked at her calmly, his eyes as deep as the sea.
Xiao Xixi pulled at his sleeve and shook it gently, just like when she was a child, every time she made a mistake, she would pull him and beg for mercy.
"Big Brother, I was wrong. I will never do it again."
Fang Wujiu: "You always say this, but you never change."
Xiao Xixi showed a flattering smile: "I will definitely change this time!"
Fang Wujiu sighed helplessly: "I hope you can keep your word this time."
After so many years, he has long been accustomed to indulging her. Even though he knows that this girl is a person who does not keep her word, he still can't help but indulge her again and again.
When Xiao Xixi saw that the senior brother was no longer angry, she immediately relaxed.
She pushed the teacup towards him and smiled brightly.
"Brother, please have some tea. This is your favorite wolfberry chrysanthemum tea."
Fang Wujiu picked up the teacup and took a sip, turning the page.
He asked, "What did you figure out yesterday?"
Xiao Xixi first observed him carefully, and seeing that he looked calm and peaceful, with no signs of dissatisfaction, she answered truthfully.
"I figured out that Guan Ying is from Tianmen, and he has a master. That master seems to be from Tianmen as well, and his status is not low."
She paused and added carefully.
"His master is very special. Not only does he know about the third eye, he also detected my existence."
Fang Wujiu knew how she told fortunes for people, so she was naturally aware that she would have an empathy effect with people during the fortune-telling process. With the help of this empathy effect, she could perceive everything that the other person could perceive, while the other person and the people around him were completely unaware of this.
But now there is someone who can sense her presence.
This is something that has never happened before.
Fang Wujiu's expression became solemn, and he asked in a deep voice.
"Can you see what that person looks like?"
Xiao Xixi shook her head: "The figure is blurry, I can't see clearly, but judging from the voice alone, the man should be a man, and he is not young, at least in his fifties or sixties."
Elderly men in their fifties or sixties, this range is really too broad, and there are countless people in the world who meet this condition.
Xiao Xixi obviously knew this, so she didn't expect to find the person based on this clue.
She went on to say, "Yesterday I figured out Guan Ying's exact whereabouts. He is in Fufeng City. Although he may have escaped now, if we send someone to Shuangyu County to look for him, we may be able to find some clues."
However, when Fang Wujiu heard the word Fufeng City, his eyes changed slightly.
His memory seemed to be pulled back to many years ago, when he was only four years old. His parents took him out of town for an outing. The sun was shining, the breeze was gentle, and the copper bells hanging on the carriage rang crisply.
He was unwilling to sit quietly in the carriage and insisted on leaning on the window to look out.
He saw three big characters "Fufeng City" written above the city gate behind him.
