Ci Jinzhi

Chapter 163: tell the truth

   Xiaolian's first reaction was that the girl was drunk.

  But these days, her admiration for Xin You has been deeply rooted in her bones. Her action was one step faster than her reaction, and she reached out and opened the car curtain.

  When the cotton curtain was lifted, the bitter wind blew in fine snow particles.

  Xiao Lian poked her head out to look back, and suddenly put down the curtains of the car: "Girl, Master He is really behind!"

  The girl is still so predictable, she suspects that the girl is drunk, what a sin.

  The girl leaning against the wall of the car smiled and said, "Let the driver stop."

  Xiaolian was stunned again.

  Miss, is this to let Master He know that they know he is following? But judging from the distance between Mr. He and the carriage, it seems that he didn't intend to let the girl know.

  Won't this be a little embarrassing?

  Xiao Lian couldn't help but suspect that the girl had drunk too much, and carefully looked at Xin You's face.

  The girl gave birth to an oval face, fair and clean, and she looked the same as before.

   She is overthinking.

  Xiao Lian cleared her throat, and called out to the coachman: "Stop the car."

  The carriage stopped quickly.

  He Qingxiao, who was riding a horse and followed from a distance, saw the carriage stop, and doubts appeared in his eyes.

  He naturally saw Xiao Lian who was looking back with her head. He didn't feel anything at the moment when he was discovered, because he knew that Miss Kou was a kind of open and generous woman, and there would be no misunderstanding.

  But the carriage stopped unexpectedly.

  Thinking that Xin You drank a lot of spirits at the banquet, doubts turned into worries.

   Could there be something wrong with Miss Kou?

  When this thought came up, He Qingxiao squeezed the horse's belly, and rushed to the carriage in a few breaths.

  Xin You closed her eyes and moved her ears slightly: "The sound of hooves stopped."

  Xiao Lian was a little nervous for some reason, and lowered her voice to remind: "Girl, it must be Master He who is here!"

  Seeing Xin You move towards her, she opened the curtains of the car.

  Xiao Lian silently moved aside.

  Seeing Xin You, He Qingxiao heaved a sigh of relief and asked, "Does Miss Kou need help?"

  Xin You shook her head: "No need."

  He Qingxiao didn't know what to say.

   It’s not relative or reason, it’s not suitable for him to follow the girl’s carriage. Now he doesn’t need help, so he can’t just walk around the carriage and chat.

  After a brief silence, He Qingxiao said: "Miss Kou drank a lot of wine today, let's put down the curtain, so as not to catch the cold wind."

   "Catch a cold?" These two words reminded Xin You, "Master He, do you want to go back by car?"

  Calm as He Qingxiao, she was stunned at this moment, her gaze fell blankly on the green curtained carriage parked in front of her.

  Xiao Lian's pupils trembled even more, thinking that she had heard it wrong.

  By car? What car do you take? In whose car?

   Soon she knew whose car to take, and Xin You laughed and said, "There are still people in my car."

  The corner of He Qingxiao's mouth twitched uncontrollably, and he was sure: Miss Kou was drunk.

  What else can I do in the face of drunk people, I can only coax them.

   "Thank you, Ms. Kou, for your kindness. I'm a little hot after drinking, so I just need to ride a horse. Ms. Kou, let's put down the curtain and go home early."

   "Oh." Xin You put down the curtains of the car.

  He Qingxiao secretly heaved a sigh of relief.

   Fortunately, Miss Kou is not the kind of person who messes around after getting drunk, and is even a little obedient...cute.

  After realizing his own thoughts, He Qingxiao's face became hot, and he wondered to himself, could it be that he also drank too much?

   Soon the curtains of the car were raised again, and Xiao Lian spoke on behalf of Xin You: "Excuse me, Mr. He, let's go."

   "Take care of Miss Kou."

  Before Xiao Lian could respond, another head squeezed over: "Master He, I remembered, I still have business to say."

  He Qingxiao was worried that Xinyou would say something she shouldn't say in front of Xiaolian and the coachman. After all, she had too many secrets, so he hesitated for a while and said, "Then let's talk about it at the bookstore."

   "Okay." Xin You sat back, leaned against the car wall and closed her eyes.

  Xiao Lian smiled awkwardly at He Qingxiao, and quickly put down the curtains of the car.

   "Girl?"

   After yelling, Xiao Lian patted her forehead when Xin You didn't respond.

   It turns out that the girl really drank too much!

   Discovering this, Xiao Lian was even more impressed.

  The girl doesn't change her face when she's drunk, that's amazing!

  Xin You spent a lot of money on this carriage, it was spacious and comfortable, and it didn't wobble too much. It arrived at Qingsong Bookstore comfortably all the way.

  After the carriage stopped, Xiao Lian quietly rolled up a corner of the curtains, and found that Mrs. He was still there, and quickly called Xin You: "Girl, the bookstore is here."

  She thought it would be difficult for people who drank too much to wake up, but she didn't expect to yell, and the girl who closed her eyes as if she was in a deep sleep opened them.

"Reached?"

   "Here we are, Mr. He is still waiting for you."

  Xin You blinked and was about to go out of the carriage, Xiao Lian quickly helped her up.

  He Qingxiao also got off the horse, and waited for Xin You to walk to the bookstore, silently following behind.

   "Boss, didn't you go to the banquet?" Liu Zhou, who thought he had a guest, saw Xin You walking in, and asked in confusion.

   "I'm back. Master He and I have business to talk about, prepare a pot of good tea, and snacks made by Mrs. Yang..." Xin You explained.

  Liu Zhou glanced back at He Qingxiao who walked in, feeling a little strange.

  My boss talked a lot today, could it be that he drank too much at the banquet?

  Looking at Xin You's fair little face and refreshing tone of voice, the boy silently dispelled his doubts.

  People who drink too much cannot do this.

  Xin You glanced sideways at He Qingxiao, waited for him to approach, and walked into the waiting room.

  He Qingxiao has entered this reception room many times in the past, perhaps because of Xin You's open-minded attitude, she never felt restrained, but this time she felt a little immobile.

  Xiao Lian watched silently, but understood very well.

  Master He was frightened by the girl's invitation to ride in the same car, right?

  Liu Zhou didn't know so much. Seeing He Qingxiao walking slowly, he urged: "Master He?"

  How can they make their boss wait!

  He Qingxiao restrained her messy emotions and walked in.

  Liu Zhou quickly brought tea and snacks, and withdrew.

   There are only two people left in the reception room.

  Your lady is very particular about going out. After eating and drinking, even if it is inconvenient to be at the master's house, she will wash her mouth and hands on the carriage when she returns. Naturally, Xin You is the same, but she still can't stop her breath from being full of alcohol.

  He Qingxiao sat upright, not knowing whether the smell of alcohol was his or hers.

  This made his body tense unconsciously, making it difficult to feel at ease.

  Miss Kou said that there is something serious to discuss, is it related to King Qing?

   While guessing, she saw Xin You put her chin on one hand and raised her lips.

   "Master He, you have escaped today's **** disaster." She spoke seriously, but those hazy eyes betrayed the master.

   This is not something that a sober and rational girl Kou would say.

  Xin You felt that she was sober, rational, and wanted to talk: "Master He has helped me several times before, and I finally paid you back."

  He Qingxiao was startled.

  Miss Kou, what does this mean?

  Xin You was still saying: "At first I thought it would be difficult to repay Mr. He's favor, but considering that Mr. He has suffered a lot of blood and light, it seems that I can still pay it off..."

  He Qingxiao: "..."
