Chu Yuqin invited the Qin family and others.

At the dinner, everyone gathered together and had a lively time.

The men drank high, hooked their shoulders and backs, and the brothers talked about old things.

The women were not used to seeing it, so they went to the room to talk after eating, and turned a blind eye to the men's behavior.

Chu Yuqin talked to several aunts for a while and then came out. She suddenly felt a little stuffy and wanted to breathe.

The door to the next wall is closed. But she has the key here, as long as she opens that door, she can go to the Ling family next door.

"If you appear in the Ling family at this time, I'm afraid it will scare them, right?"

Chu Yuqin drank some wine and was a little drunk.

With a drunken spirit, she pulled out the key and opened the door.

I haven't come back for so many days, and there is dust on the walls and doors.

I'll have to ask the servants to clean it up tomorrow.

The Ling family had no master, and the servants rested after finishing their work.

Her appearance at the Ling family did not attract the attention of the servants.

She didn't walk around, but walked in the direction of the study.

The study door is unlocked. Ling Shengyi said at the beginning that she could come over to read a book at any time.

Creak! Push open the door and walk in.

I lit the candle and found a travelogue from the bookshelf to look at.

Maybe it was because of the drinking, and it didn't take long for the eyelids to get heavier and heavier, and then I fell asleep on my stomach.

Shout!

The wind blowing in through the window blew out the candles.

I don't know how long it took, Chu Yuqin felt someone approaching her.

She opened her eyes and glanced at the familiar figure, smiling sweetly.

"How could I dream of you?"

"Awake? When I wake up, I go back to my room. ”

The warm voice is more gentle at night.

There is also a strange emotion.

"Sleepy, I still have to sleep."

Ay!

A soft sigh sounded.

The man picked her up.

"When are you coming back?"

Chu Yuqin opened his eyes again.

"I'm in trouble, and no one can talk to me about it. You've got a good brain, and if you're here, you'll be able to help me. ”

"Just believe me?"

"Hmm."

Ling Shengyi placed her on the bed in the side room.

He sat next to him, watching her sleep peacefully.

"Why are so many people having trouble with you? You're really prone to getting into trouble. It's just an ordinary little girl. ”

The night was silent.

Ling Shengyi looked at the moon outside the window.

"It's better to be here."

Quiet, peaceful.

He walked around outside, but he was getting more and more confused. When I came back, I was sober.

It seems that this is still more suitable for him to live an ordinary life.

As for this little girl who always causes trouble......

Anyway, he doesn't hate it, so let's love it as a sister!

Who made this little girl so attractive?

"Hmm......"

Chu Yuqin stretched.

"How did I get to bed? Wrong! This is not my room. ”

"Wake up."

A soft voice came from the window.

A tall man had his back to her.

"You...... Brother Ling. ”

Ling Shengyi turned around and turned back.

"Little girl is very studious! It's still in the study so late, and I even fell asleep there. ”

"How can I be studious? Obviously, I just drank some wine, and I was a little drunk. ”

Chu Yuqin was embarrassed.

"When did you come back? Uncle Zheng didn't say you're back! ”

She got out of bed and walked towards Ling Shengyi.

Ling Shengyi smiled: "I came back in the middle of the night." Lihong is also resting at my house. It's too late, so as not to disturb your family's rest. ”

"I thought you wouldn't be back anytime soon. It hasn't been long! ”

"Twenty days, isn't it still long?"

Ling Shengyi looked at her.

"You've lost a lot of weight."

"A catastrophe from the sky, can you not lose weight?"

Chu Yuqin sat down opposite him.

"By the way, you can help me analyze it. I always thought this case was a little strange. ”

"Tell me about it."

Chu Yuqin was halfway through speaking, and Old Man Zheng's voice came from outside.

"Childe, breakfast is ready."

"Let's talk while eating!"

Ling Shengyi said to Chu Yuqin.

"Okay."

Old man Zheng brought breakfast in.

There is a side room next to the study, where there is a place to rest and a place to eat.

The two barely sat down to eat together. Today is an exception.

For breakfast, we prepared xiao long bao, gruel, steamed buns and pancakes.

These are what Chu Yuqin usually likes to do. The cook's skills are good, although not as good as hers, but there are also seven or eight points of essence.

For the first time, the two dined alone at the same table. But there was nothing awkward about them.

In a way, they're the best friends to talk to.

"Isn't that weird, you say? Is the murderer really this thrush? ”

"The existence of the dagger is indeed somewhat suspicious, but it is not said that the thrush cannot find such a dagger. Even if it's not hers, you can get it from somewhere else. It's just that in that situation, Thrush was just a low-class maid, and it was a little strange that she appeared in the room of the top girl so easily. ”

"Right! Even if it was really made by the thrush, the status of the thrush was so low that it appeared in Jasmine's room, why did no one stop it? At that time, there were distinguished guests. According to their rules, when the guests are here, they will have to be more careful. ”

"Thrushes don't usually go to the backyard, so they can only do chores. Anyway, I think there's something strange about her appearance. And that Jasmine, who usually has a good impression of her. I didn't expect it to feel weird this time. ”

"The case has been decided. At this time, no matter how much I checked, I couldn't find anything. Do you want to look it up for the sake of uncertain suspicions? ”

"I want to meet the thrush and ask her about it. She said that she had not lived long and had already saved her intention to die. What if she can't die? Will you be willing to be silent then? ”

Ling Shengyi did not speak.

Chu Yuqin felt strange and looked at him.

"What's wrong? Am I saying something wrong? ”

"You're always so warm-hearted, that's why you're at a loss."

"It's not so much that I'm warm-hearted, it's that I want to know the real truth, not the truth that others want me to see."

Chu Yuqin poked the buns in the bowl.

"I thought you'd approve of what I did."

"Need my help?"

"Yes."

Chu Yuqin nodded without hesitation.

"It's so needed."

Ling Shengyi was amused by her appearance.

"What are you laughing at? What I'm saying is true. You're got a better brain than I am. When it comes to this kind of thing, you are much more interested than me. Brother Ling, please. ”

"Good. I'll go with you to the yamen later. But whether you can see the thrush or not depends on luck. ”

"Thank you, Brother Ling. You are truly my lucky star. ”

Ling Shengyi made a gesture of please.

"You didn't eat much just now, eat some more."

"Okay."

Ling Shengyi's dining movements were extremely elegant.

Chu Yuqin is not a vulgar person either. But looking at his movements, it's like admiring the finest painting.

"Will I be able to eat enough?"

Ling Shengyi picked up a bun and stuffed it into her mouth.

"Hmm......"

She glared at him and took out the bun in her mouth and ate it.
