In the evening, Qin Youchen came back from outside, and when he heard that Zhao Ji had woken up, he was neither surprised nor happy, but as if he had expected it, his face was calm. After going to see Mrs. Qin, he went to Zhao Ji to see her. It just so happened that Bao Cui had just finished serving Zhao Ji and taking medicine, and when he saw Qin Youchen coming, he was quite discerning, so he secretly pursed his lips and smiled, and then took his things out of the house, and did not forget to close the door casually.

"I have to say, this maid next to you is quite sensible." Qin Youchen deliberately teased, walked over with a smile, sat down on a stool next to the bed, he glanced at Zhao Ji and asked, "How is it?" Do you feel better now? ”

Zhao Ji's face was a little pale, but his eyes were much brighter than when he first woke up, and when he heard Qin Youchen's inquiry, he nodded slightly and said with a smile: "It's much better." I heard that you have taken good care of me these days, thank you. ”

"Thanks for what?" Qin Youchen smiled, remembered what Ruan Wu had just said in the Shuai Mansion, and sighed: "Anyway, your illness is also caused by me. ”

When Zhao Ji heard this, he wondered if there was another reason for his illness?

Qin Youchen didn't explain much, just chuckled, reached out and tucked her quilt, "Hehe, don't think about it." I've finally woken up, so let's recuperate. Strive to be good as soon as possible, and it is not in vain that everyone has worked hard for you this time. ”

Zhao Ji looked down at the quilt on his body, and then looked up at Qin Youchen, thinking that although he and he were husband and wife, they actually had no feelings at all. It is false to say that there is no emotion.

"Actually, you don't have to be so nice to me." Zhao Ji held the brocade quilt and muttered.

"Also, I hurt you by being nice to you." Qin Youchen put away the smile on his face, stared at Zhao Ji's face seriously, and then said, "In this case, then I won't be good to you in the future." ”

Zhao Ji didn't speak, just nodded slightly in agreement.

The two of them didn't speak again. Qin Youchen sat for a while, then got up and left, and went back to the study. Zhao Ji sat on the bed alone for a moment, then lay down and fell asleep.

The night was uneventful. However, when they woke up on the second day, the already unfamiliar couple looked even more rusty than some time ago, and they didn't even meet each other for several days.

On this day, Zhao Ying came to Qin Mansion to see her again.

"Sister, why haven't you seen your brother-in-law's shadow these days?" Zhao Ying sat in the courtyard with Zhao Ji, glanced around, didn't see Qin Youchen, and couldn't help asking: "When you were sick a few days ago, you were called a guard every step of the way, but after you woke up, I came to see you every day, but I didn't touch him once." Have you been busy lately? ”

"Hmm. Probably busy. Zhao Ji replied very plainly, and his tone was also very soft, although his body has gradually recuperated these days, but perhaps because he has been lying in bed for too long, the whole person is lazy and has no strength to speak.

Zhao Ying looked at Zhao Ji suspiciously, and always felt that there must be something between the two of them. She glanced at Baocui again, but saw Baocui standing behind Zhao Ji and gesturing with both hands, the meaning couldn't be more obvious. couldn't help but be even more suspicious, even Bao Cui didn't know what was going on, it was really weird.

Still wondering, a maid walked in through the moon gate from outside and said, "Third young grandmother, fourth young master is here." ”

As soon as she heard that Qin Youning was coming, Zhao Ying's doubts about the matter between Zhao Ji and Qin Youchen immediately dissipated, and was replaced by a look of uneasiness, and her eyes were rolling slightly, as if she was thinking about something.

Qin Youning had already been invited in, and at a glance he saw Zhao Ying sitting aside, his eyes resting on her, revealing a gentle smile, and then inadvertently fell on Zhao Ji's body and greeted: "Third sister-in-law." I'll give you a follow-up visit. ”

Although Zhao Ji was lazy, his head was very sober, Qin Youning's gaze on Zhao Ying just now had already been caught in her eyes, and she was surprised at first, and when she turned a little, she turned to worry again, but she didn't show it on her face, and smiled slightly: "Okay." ”

Qin Youning sat down on the stone chair, put down the medicine box in his hand, opened it, and gave Zhao Ji a follow-up examination skillfully. Then he said: "Third sister-in-law, your body is almost better, and there is nothing serious." ”

Zhao Ji smiled: "It's because of the fourth brother's good medical skills that I can recover so quickly." ”

Qin Youning smiled humbly, glanced at it, and found that the opposite position was empty, and Zhao Ying's figure had long been gone, so he couldn't help but be stunned and asked, "Huh?" What about Miss Zhao Er? Wasn't she still sitting here? ”

Bao Cui helped on the side and replied, "Oh, the second lady said that she suddenly remembered that there was an important thing she didn't do, so she hurried to leave first." ”

"Why don't you even say hello?" It was not Zhao Ji who said this, but Qin Youning, he almost blurted out, he didn't think much about it at all, he didn't even notice that he said it, and he didn't care about Baocui's stunned gaze, so he stood up: "Third sister-in-law, I still have to go to work in the hospital, so I'll go first." ”

After finishing speaking, without waiting for Zhao Ji to say anything, he turned around and walked away.

Bao Cui looked at Qin Youning's figure leaving in a hurry in a daze, and said in amazement: "Why did these three young masters leave in such a hurry?" Also, he and the second lady ......"

Zhao Ji was still sitting in the original position, holding the tea bowl in his hand, uncovering the lid, and gently removing the tea leaves floating on the tea, his eyes were calm, but his heart was worried.

"Miss, for a few days when you were unconscious, the second miss came to see you every day. At that time, because the fourth young master wanted to see a doctor for the young lady, the two often met. I guess I got acquainted with it at that time. ”

Although Bao Cui is a maid, she is also a smart maid, plus the love novels that Zhao Ying gave her before, she can guess nine times out of ten when she looks at the situation of the two people, but she doesn't say it explicitly, but carefully looks at Zhao Ji's face and says what she thinks.

Zhao Ji listened, but he didn't speak, but looked at Qin Youning's figure and disappeared around the corner.

These days, Zhao Ying came to see Zhao Ji every day, however, every time she came, she picked Qin Youning's absence, and the two couldn't meet. Qin Youning always felt that something was wrong, so he deliberately asked for leave to wait at home today, and as soon as he heard that Zhao Ying was coming, he brought the medicine box here to give Zhao Ji a follow-up, if he hadn't been attentive during the follow-up, he would not have noticed Zhao Ying's departure. However, what made him care more was that he felt that Zhao Ying seemed to be deliberately avoiding him. Zhao Ying's actions just now made him more sure of the conjecture in his heart.

No, he must ask. As soon as he thought so, he casually stuffed the medicine box into the hands of a passing subordinate, quickened his pace and ran directly after him.
