Su Wanqing glanced at the old master's slightly stiff expression without a trace, and then a shallow smile appeared on her face.

"Isn't this the prefect, I didn't expect you to come so early, I'm really embarrassed to wake up late today." Su Wanqing said with a faint hint of apology in her eyes.

When the prefect heard this, he waved his hand, not minding at all.

"There is no thing, it is Lord Ben who came early, and when it comes to this matter, I still have to blame Lord Ben, it has nothing to do with Mrs. Pei."

This gambling stone shop is about to become his, and the prefect has been scratching his heart and lungs for the past few days, and he can't help but rush over early in the morning. After all, the things are not his, and he can't feel at ease for a day, and there are still a lot of debts waiting for him.

At this juncture, how could he blame Mrs. Pei? It's simply impossible.

The old master on the side watched Su Wanqing say such things without changing his face, and couldn't help but pouted secretly. This Mrs. Pei is really hypocritical, she is clearly ordered up like this on weekdays, and she only comes to the store slowly, and it is impossible to get up early at all! She dared to deceive the prefect, but she was really bold.

But at this moment, although the old master expressed dissatisfaction with Su Wanqing in his heart, he didn't say anything in the end. After all, he also knew very well in his heart that although the prefect needed his skills in cutting stones, the gambling stone shop had not really become the prefect's thing at the moment, so how could he do a bad thing to the prefect at this juncture?

Therefore, the prefect just glared at Su Wanqing behind his back and did not say anything.

Su Wanqing pretended not to notice the master's eyes, she waved at the prefect casually, no, stretched out her hand, pointed inside, and said in a gentle tone: "Prefect, it's noisy outside, please come and sit in the reception room, I'm really embarrassed that the reception was not good before." "If she had known that the prefect was waiting here, she should have gotten up later.

Su Wanqing thought secretly while walking in front to lead the way.

If the prefect knew Su Wanqing's inner thoughts, I am afraid that she would be so angry that she vomited blood.

No one else dared to make him, the prefect, wait so long.

The prefect followed Su Wanqing into the reception room, Su Wanqing instructed Li'er to make a cup of tea for the prefect, said hello to the prefect, and left temporarily.

The prefect picked up the tea in front of him and took a sip gently, the sweet tea warmed his slightly cold stomach in the morning.

Lian'er watched Su Wanqing walk out, and it was not good to hang the prefect here directly for a while, although she didn't want to be in the same room with the prefect, but she had to stand aside with a tray in her hand.

"The taste of this tea is not bad, I didn't expect Mrs. Pei to understand tea."

The prefect drank a few sips of hot tea in a row, and his face was a little more comfortable and comfortable.

He gently placed the teacup on the table, and turned his head to look at the girl who was slightly hanging her head, her face was round, her skin was fair, and she could be blown by blowing. In an instant, the prefect felt a slight itch in his heart.

Why do you think that this poor child has become more and more cute since she arrived at the gambling stone shop?

Li'er felt very disliked by the gaze cast by the prefect, and always felt that his gaze was faintly revealing a trace of ...... Obscene. Trifling?

She frowned a little uncomfortably, and was about to find a reason to leave here, when the cold prefect spoke, and he said with a smile: "Isn't this a pity? I didn't recognize it, I haven't seen it for a while, but I've changed a lot, and I'm so beautiful that I can't even recognize it. ”

If she were another woman, if she was praised by the prefect like this, she might be so shy that she would blush.

But Li'er only felt a burst of repercussions in her heart, no wonder there was nothing else, this prefect himself was ugly, and it was not a good thing to hear such a person praise herself, and she would not feel happy.

"The prefect is serious." Li'er said quietly, and didn't say too much, and her tone was light.

The prefect didn't notice Li'er's coldness, he just thought this girl was shy. His mung bean eyes glanced out of the door, and saw that there seemed to be no movement outside, and then said with a smile: "You probably heard what Mrs. Pei said about this gambling stone shop, right?" You should know the purpose of your visit today? ”

Li'er was stunned, then nodded slightly. She already knew that there was nothing to hide.

The prefect was very satisfied, and continued, "In that case, I wonder if you are interested in returning to the prefect and staying with your lordship?" In the future, Mrs. Pei will also leave here, this is where you grew up, and you probably can't bear it, right? ”

Li'er seemed to be stunned again, she said softly: "Li'er is now serving by Mrs. Pei's side, if it weren't for Mrs. Pei, I'm afraid Li'er wouldn't be able to stay in this store now, Mrs. Pei is very good to Li'er, and Li'er is also very grateful to Mrs. Pei, so no matter where Mrs. Pei goes, Li'er will follow her side and serve Mrs. Pei all the time." ”

The prefect didn't expect that Li'er would refuse him directly, and he didn't give him any face, and the smile on his face froze immediately. He couldn't figure it out, what good was it to follow Mrs. Pei? If you follow him, you can eat and drink spicy food in the future, wouldn't it be good?

What's more, this gambling stone shop is about to become his bag, he has status and status, and no matter how many people want to enter the prefect, they can't get in. Or did she not understand her own hints?

The prefect felt that this girl probably didn't understand what she wanted to express, and she probably thought that she still asked her to go back to be a maid.

When the prefect thought of this, the smile on his face was full of smiles.

"Li'er, you may not understand what Lord Ben means, Lord Ben asked you to go back to the prefect's mansion, not to let you be a maid, do you understand what Lord Ben means?" Facing Li'er, the prefect suddenly felt that he had more patience than he had ever been.

Even in Liu Ting, the prefect didn't seem to be so patient.

Li'er's brows furrowed imperceptibly, and she took a step back slightly silently, shaking her head at the prefect, with a hint of panic on her face.

"Lord Prefect, the slave maid is just a commoner from a humble background, how can He De be able to accompany the Lord Prefect? With the conditions of adults, what kind of women don't have them, there are too many women who are better than Li'er, and Li'er doesn't have such ability to stay by the prefect's side. ”

Although these words made the prefect feel strange and comfortable, he was still a little unhappy.

Because what Li'er meant by this, didn't she still reject him?

"Are you afraid that Lord Ben will treat you badly? Don't worry, this is not such a person. ”

The prefect didn't intend to give up so easily.

"This ...... That's not what Li'er meant. ”

Li'er secretly complained in her heart, she has always been a quiet and quiet person, and she doesn't like to make trouble, and she doesn't have enough aura to force him back against an old fritter like Lord Shangfu. At this time, Mrs. Pei is not here, how can she be good?

Mrs. Pei, why haven't you come back yet, if you don't come again, you will lose your maid. Li'er felt that the current prefect was like a wolf, staring at her tightly, and would rush over at any time and eat her alive.

She was like a little sheep, shivering and having nowhere to run.

Just when Li'er was secretly crying out in her heart, a low and beautiful voice suddenly came from the side.

"Oh, isn't this the prefect? I didn't expect to have the honor to meet you here, what a blessing I am. ”

The prefect was about to say a few more thoughtful words to Li'er, but he was interrupted coldly, and he raised his head a little unhappily and glanced at the visitor.

The man was dressed in an ordinary blue coat, with an ordinary face, only carrying a folding fan in his hand, pretending to be a suave son. It's a pity that with such a look, no woman is destined to like it.

The prefect couldn't help but secretly complain in his heart about this person who interrupted his good deeds, but he never thought that his appearance was more than a star and a half worse than that of this tall son, and he couldn't even compare to this son, how could he have the face to say to others.

However, the prefect has been the prefect for so many years, and the most important thing in his bones is self-confidence. Therefore, he will never be aware of these problems. But he didn't ignore it, when this man appeared, there was suddenly a glimmer of light in Li'er's eyes, which couldn't be concealed no matter what.

This made the prefect's heart even more uncomfortable. He thought about it for a moment before he remembered the man's identity.

"Aren't you the same guy who used to cut stones?" He deliberately bit the word "little girl", and then glanced at the pity on the side.

But Li'er didn't seem to notice the prefect's expression, and her mind was on Yi Zhao's body at the moment. Great, his presence was like rain in time to save her. If he hadn't appeared, this greasy middle-aged man might have been desperate to post it at this time.

When the time comes, where will you go to cry out for injustice?

Yi Zhao was neither humble nor arrogant in response to the prefect's questioning, and did not seem to perceive the hostility in his tone.

"It's down, I didn't expect the adults to remember it, I'm really grateful."

Prefect: ......

Although he is a prefect, it is the first time he has met such a shameless person, this stone-cutting guy is too flattering, right? Which ear did he hear himself say that he remembered him, there were only a few people back and forth in this store, it was difficult for him to forget, right?

Hmph, this man is really contrived.

The prefect couldn't help but despise Yi Zhao again in his heart.

"Do you have anything to do with Lord Ben?"

The prefect wants to drive people out.

Yi Zhao seemed to have a hint of surprise in his expression.

"Aren't you looking for me, sir?"

Prefect: ......

When did I find you?
