Bai Runyi let go immediately and straightened his clothes.
"Ahem, thank you for your help, sir."
Is your face changing so quickly?
Wen Xingzhi's smile grew deeper and deeper. Bai Runyi looked around and saw that there was no one around before he realized that he had been deceived.
This stingy guy, what’s wrong with touching it!
"Hmph, I'm leaving now. Go ahead and get busy."
Wen Xing was stunned. What was he busy with? What else could he do besides seeing her every time he came to the capital?
He hasn't been here for a few days, and this damn girl has forgotten about her?
"Where are you going?"
"I'm going to find Qingqing."
"Do you like Chen Qing so much?" Wen Xingzhi walked beside Bai Runyi and asked with his head down.
"Yeah, she is my savior."
"What do you mean?"
"You don't know, a few days before New Year's Eve, I was kidnapped! Not only did that person beat me, but he also wanted to remove my bones to make chess pieces and peel off my skin to make a human skin drum!"
Wen Xingzhi's heart tightened. He didn't get any news at all.
"Thanks to Qingqing for coming down from the sky." Bai Runyi recalled the scene that day, "She said, oh my dear lady, I'm late..."
"Well, are you injured?" Wen Xingzhi believed that Shen Qing saved her, but he didn't believe it was that outrageous.
“Not really.”
That's good.
A few days before New Year's Eve, Wen Xingzhi was planning to catch an undercover agent at Qianji Villa.
"But you cough, cough, cough." Wen Xingzhi wanted to say something, but suddenly he started coughing violently.
"Are you okay?" Bai Runyi patted Wen Xingzhi's back quickly. "You're wearing so many clothes, so you won't catch a cold, will you?"
"No problem."
Wen Xingzhi smiled faintly, his hands hidden under his sleeves trembling slightly.
"Didn't you see a doctor?"
"It's just a cold."
A grown man's body is so weak. She was kidnapped and thrown into a shabby house and she didn't catch a cold for a whole day. Could he be weak?!
Wen Xingzhi saw Bai Runyi's eyes change from worry, to disgust, to pride, and finally to shock, and he knew that there was nothing good in her head.
"My father was the previous owner of Qianji Villa, and he had many enemies. When my mother was giving birth to me, she was attacked by so many assassins that she was frightened and died of complications during childbirth. I also nearly died because I was in the womb for too long. Even after I was rescued, I was left with a chronic illness."
"Ah? That's so miserable."
Bai Runyi felt very sympathetic towards Wen Xingzhi's life experience, and slightly condemned his own disgusted behavior just now.
"I'm used to it."
He had long been accustomed to people calling him a sickly person, and later when he had the ability, he killed them all.
But he didn't want her to misunderstand.
"It's okay, I'm in good health." Bai Runyi's incoherent words made Wen Xingzhi confused.
When we have a child in the future, he will definitely be as strong as an ox.
"Okay, you should go back and rest. I'll go find Qingqing first." Bai Runyi patted Wen Xingzhi's shoulders twice.
"But this is not the way to the General's Mansion."
Isn’t the General’s Mansion in the other direction?
"You don't understand. Qingqing is definitely not in the General's Mansion."
Bai Runyi said in an enigmatic manner, then walked in another direction.
She had heard early in the morning that Shen Jing had gone to the General's Mansion. Shen Qing would definitely not be in the mansion. The restaurant was open today, and that little old woman Shen Qing must have gone there for tea.
When she arrived at the restaurant and heard the waiter say that Shen Qing was upstairs, she became even more proud.
She really understands Qingqing!
Pushing the door open without hesitation, Bai Runyi's smile froze when he saw that besides Chen Qing, there was also a show-off sitting inside.
"Why are you here?" Bai Runyi asked dissatisfiedly.
In fact, Jiang Zhuo had just sat down and hadn't said a few words to Shen Qing when Bai Runyi, the follower, came.
"Young lady, don't you welcome me? But I forgot that I also played a role in saving her that day."
"snort."
Bai Runyi didn't say anything, just snorted and sat next to Shen Qing.
"Qingqing, he's so annoying. Can you please break up with him?"
"Okay." Shen Qing raised his eyebrows and glanced at Jiang Zhuo, then nodded.
"Qingqing..." Jiang Zhuo didn't believe it. How could he be abandoned so easily?
"Qingqing, you are so nice!" Bai Runyi stuck out his tongue proudly at Jiang Zhuo.
Shen Qing also discovered that coaxing Bai Runyi was like coaxing a daughter. Occasionally, she would act like a child with you, and you would tease her a few words, which was really fun.
The fifth day after the New Year.
Shen Qing has a feeling that one must avoid prophecies when speaking!
Yesterday she casually mentioned that Qin Wanming came to the general's mansion to propose marriage, and today he really came.
"Miss, don't sleep! Don't sleep!" Qingge shouted anxiously to Chen Qing who was sleeping soundly.
"Qingge, if you keep making noise, I'll sell you to the mines..."
"Miss, the Second Young Master Qin is really here to propose marriage!" Qingge even started to pull Shen Qing, "There are quite a few people watching!"
"Hmm? Who?" Shen Qing opened his eyes dazedly. "Who's coming to propose?"
Jiang Zhuo?
"Second Young Master Qin, Qin Wanming!"
Fuck!
Shen Qing cursed and sat up, letting Qingge dress her.
"I want to see what Qin Wanming is up to! I'm going to cut his head open and figure out what he's up to!"
forecourt.
"General, madam, these are the gift lists."
Qin Wanming waved his hand and signaled his servant to present the gift list.
Shen Jianshan confiscated it, but just put his hands behind his back with a serious expression. Seeing this, Cheng Xue didn't dare to speak.
"Why did Second Young Master Qin suddenly ask to marry my daughter?"
"I have long admired the princess, and today is an auspicious day. I hope to gain her favor."
Seeing that Shen Jianshan still didn't want to give in and didn't want to accept their betrothal gifts, Qiu Mo behind Qin Wanming winked at Cheng Xue.
"General, the Second Young Master Qin and Qingqing are a perfect match, and Qingqing is not young anymore. If we wait any longer, I'm afraid..."
Cheng Xue persuaded Shen Jianshan in a low voice, every word she said was for Shen Qing's sake.
Shen Jianshan had never been optimistic about Qin Wanming, always feeling that his eyes were impure. He was about to send someone to call Shen Qing, but there was another noise outside the door.
Jiang Zhuo, clad in a dark red sable coat, rode up on horseback with a dashing demeanor. The coat fluttered slightly in the cold wind, making him look even more imposing.
Behind him followed a carriage with an elaborately carved body and intricately embroidered curtains on the windows. Further back, a long procession of people laboriously carried large, well-made boxes that were heavy and mysterious.
Wherever Jiang Zhuo went, passers-by looked at him with surprise and discussion, all wondering what this huge event was all about.
The convoy stopped at the gate of the general's mansion. Jiang Zhuo dismounted, straightened his clothes, then turned around and knocked on the carriage.
"Your Excellency the Prime Minister, we have arrived."
Jiang Ling got off the carriage and glanced at Jiang Zhuo, who looked as if he were basking in the spring breeze.
Shen Jianshan looked at the posture of Jiang Zhuo and his son, and had some vague guesses in his mind.
"Brother Shen, Happy New Year." Jiang Ling greeted Shen Jianshan directly after coming in.
"Prime Minister Jiang, Happy New Year. As expected of the head of the civil service, even such a grand ceremony is necessary for New Year's greetings."
"Hey, New Year's greetings are just a side note. As for me, I'm here to ask for the hand in marriage of my son, Princess Huayue."
