After she became a county magistrate, she took the ghost to investigate the case

Chapter 184 Sowing discord

Li Siqi did not answer Xu Yingying, but said sourly: "Oh, Brother Rao is finally gone, you really care about him, you gathered together to chat early in the morning."

"By the way, what's your relationship? You two seemed to be chatting happily just now. I hope my presence didn't disturb you!"

Li Siqi couldn't help but said sarcastically.

Xu Yingying didn't realize that there was something wrong with Li Siqi's words, and instead replied nonchalantly, "What else can we do? We're just good friends."

Li Siqi's face suddenly changed when he heard this, "Oh my, you've only known each other for a few days and you're already good friends. Your feelings for each other develop really quickly."

After saying that, Li Siqi turned around and left without looking back.

Xu Yingying looked at Li Siqi's departing back with confusion in her eyes.

"What's going on? Why is everyone acting so weird today? Did they take the wrong medicine?" Xu Yingying muttered in dissatisfaction.

After Li Siqi left, he returned to his study.

The more he thought about it, the more he felt he couldn't swallow this humiliation, so he quickly called his confidants.

"Your Highness, is there anything you want to talk to me about?" Xu Ruohao asked while kneeling on the ground.

"Go and supervise Rao Qingji for me, and make him stay away from Xu Yingying. Then find someone with strong martial arts skills and reliable to protect Xu Yingying. Be careful and don't let them know."

Li Siqi instructed Xu Ruohao very seriously.

"Yes, Your Highness." Xu Ruohao nodded and went down.

At the same time, Huang Shaohua, who was preparing to discuss something with Li Siqi, witnessed the whole process.

After Xu Ruohao left, he couldn't help but say to Li Siqi, "Your Highness, you...what's wrong with you? I feel like your relationship with Lord Xu is weird! You don't...like men, do you?"

Seeing that Li Siqi did not open his mouth to refute, Xu Ruohao immediately became anxious, "Your Highness, you are a prince of a country, how could you like a man? I advise you to think twice!"

Li Siqi was immediately amused when he heard Xu Ruohao's words, "Who told you that I like men? Xu Yingying and I are sworn brothers, I don't have that fetish."

Changing the subject, Li Siqi looked Huang Shaohua up and down and said, "Since Mr. Huang is so free and still in the mood to gossip here, why don't you go and supervise the progress of the refugee construction!"

Huang Shaohua smiled bitterly upon hearing this, "I... obey your command."

He believed that this was a decision made by his master who was generous and did not seek personal gain...

Just like that, Huang Shaohua was also sent away by Li Siqi and started his work of going out early and coming back late all day. In an instant, Li Siqi and Xu Yingying were the only ones left in the huge mansion.

The two of them saw each other every day, and as they spent time together, Li Siqi felt that his attitude towards Xu Yingying was becoming more and more unusual, and it seemed to have already gone beyond the normal relationship between a man and a woman.

After thinking it over, Li Siqi felt that this wouldn't work. He had to find an opportunity to test how Xu Yingying felt about him.

That day, Li Siqi stopped Xu Yingying who was about to go out and asked, "Where have you been?"

"Go stroll around the street." Xu Yingying replied.

"Oh, okay! I feel the weather is pretty good today. Why don't we have dinner together in the evening? What do you think?" Li Siqi said to Xu Yingying.

Xu Yingying immediately became interested in Li Siqi's suggestion when she heard it, "Hmm? Okay! Then where should we go to eat?"

"It's in the yard behind the mansion! What do you think?" Li Siqi asked nervously, fearing that he would be rejected by Xu Yingying.

"Okay!" Xu Yingying immediately nodded and agreed to Li Siqi's request.

night.

Xu Yingying and Li Siqi sat in the backyard of the mansion.

The breeze blew up a strand of Xu Yingying's hair on her forehead, and the two of them were so engrossed in listening to the cicadas' chirping that they didn't want to leave.

Xu Yingying was extremely happy. She hadn't felt so relaxed in a long time.

Xu Yingying's eyes lit up when she saw the wine on the table. "There's still wine! I haven't drunk in a long time."

After saying that, Xu Yingying couldn't wait to pick up the bottle and pour herself a large glass.

"This is osmanthus wine. It's very fragrant. You can try it." Li Siqi said with a smile.

"Okay, okay." Xu Yingying nodded, then she picked up the cup and took a big sip.

"Ah! It smells so good!" Xu Yingying couldn't help but say.

After a while, Xu Yingying's little face turned red from drinking.

Li Siqi saw that the time was almost right, so he took the initiative to ask Xu Yingying: "What was your first impression of me?"

Xu Yingying thought for a while, and finally answered under the influence of alcohol: "I feel that you are quite arrogant, and you don't respond to others. I am speechless about you."

Xu Yingying frowned slightly.

When Li Siqi heard this, he immediately looked embarrassed, "Uh..."

He really didn't expect Xu Yingying to evaluate him like this.

Just as Li Siqi was reflecting on himself, he felt a burst of heat by his ears.

Xu Yingying was seen with half of her body lying on Li Siqi, "But..."

Li Siqi turned back subconsciously, and their lips brushed against each other.

“Boom boom boom.”

Suddenly, Li Siqi's originally quiet heart began beating violently.

Li Siqi looked at Xu Yingying who was so close to him and couldn't help swallowing his saliva and said, "But what?"

"But... you have a pretty face! Very lovable. If I had money, I would support you."

Xu Yingying said with a smile, her eyes full of confusion.

Upon seeing this, Camellia gently pushed Xu Yingying.

The next second, Xu Yingying fell into Li Siqi's arms because of her unstable center of gravity.

Li Siqi felt uneasy when he saw Xu Yingying sleeping soundly in his arms.

As a gentleman, he silently sent Xu Yingying back to her room to rest.

After sending Xu Yingying away, he couldn't sleep all night. His mind was full of Xu Yingying's slightly red face, her hair slightly blown in the wind, and the way she talked to him in front of him.

the next day.

early morning.

Xu Yingying covered her head and struggled to get up from the bed.

"My head hurts so much. Ouch, I drank too much again. I drank too much last night." Xu Yingying muttered to herself, holding her head.

"Camellia, Camellia." Xu Yingying shouted outside the door.

The next second, Camellia floated over, "What's wrong, Master?"

"Who sent me back last night? I didn't cause any trouble, did I?" Xu Yingying asked. Every time she drank, she would easily do something weird or make a fool of herself.

Xu Yingying prayed in her heart that she didn't cause any trouble this time.

Hearing this, Camellia smiled meaningfully, "It was His Highness the Ninth Prince who sent you back. Master, you didn't cause any trouble."
