"Xiaoyue, I haven't seen you for a few days, I've been worried about you, if it weren't for my father not allowing me to go out of the house to look for you, I definitely wouldn't let you go out alone, Xiaoyue......"

Listening to Shu Qingci's sad words, Ye Hanyue half lifted her eyelids, her eyes were not good, she raised her head with a cold face, the corners of her mouth raised slightly, and immediately sneered at this interrupted Shu Qingci's words.

"Huh! Miss Shu is not here to sing a big drama tonight, tsk, look at your weak face, pretending to be quite similar. ”

She didn't want to explain too much to Hou Haoyan, but Shu Qingci showed her kindness to Hou Haoyan in front of her like this, and she Ye Hanyue didn't agree.

sneered coldly, Ye Hanyue was also fed up with Shu Qingci's skin with a weak appearance and a vicious heart, so she didn't even look at the few people present, just got up from the bench directly, and raised her feet to go towards the flow of people.

"Wait."

"Satsuki ......"

Two voices stopped Ye Hanyue's footsteps, one was from Shu Qingci, who was secretly clutching his handkerchief, and the other was shouted by Hou Haoyan, who looked innocent.

He knew that Ye Hanyue seemed to hate Shu Qingci extremely now, but now that the Shu family and the Hou family still had a marriage contract in front of them, it was not good for him to leave Shu Qingci and go with her.

can let him just look at the person he likes, and leave in a negative mood, he can't do it.

Ye Hanyue heard the sound of stopping on her side, and she didn't stop at her feet, but she continued to move forward, and before she could take two steps, she was suddenly blocked by Shu Qingci.

Her face was displeased, her face looked obviously extremely irritable, she really didn't know why, the heroine of her pen should be a strong and kind good woman, how did she come over, the heroine of her pen mutated into such a look, she wanted to get started when she saw it.

Before she could do anything, she saw Shu Qingci, who was blocking her way, suddenly grabbed her hands, her eyes were slightly red, and she stared at her tightly as if she was about to cry.

"Xiaoyue, Daddy wants to drive you away, it's also because you made a mistake, I also interceded for you, but you also know my Daddy's temper, it's ......"

Shu Qingci took Ye Hanyue's hand, there was no trace of jealousy and hatred in her eyes, there was just an emotion that matched what she said.

"Xiaoyue, you are alone, I don't know how you are doing now, you have a grudge against me now, I don't blame you, it's just ...... You can take out these silver taels for self-defense first, and all I can do is ......"

"Enough, Shu Qingci, you don't need to be so disgusting with yourself, come and disgust me again."

Shu Qingci blindly stuffed the purse that was still hanging on her waist towards Ye Hanyue, and her words were affectionate, but what she said was a little sincere.

But Ye Hanyue had already seen Shu Qingci clearly, and naturally knew the money she gave her, and the words she said to her, Zuo was just for Hou Haoyan to hear.

So, even if she tried her best to restrain herself and not tore anything with Shu Qingci on the street, but listening to Shu Qingci's insincere words, she couldn't hold back after all, and suddenly yelled.

As she roared, the pedestrians who were closer to their group looked at them one after another.

Ye Hanyue frowned and glanced at the people who had stopped around her, for fear that at this time, the people of Huangfu Hongxuan had also stopped with the crowd for a short time, so as to pay attention to her location.

Looking around, she didn't find anything unusual, but now she didn't dare to stay on the street for a few more moments.

So, Ye Hanyue directly stretched out her hand, pushed away Shu Qingci, who was babbling and talking in front of her, and walked directly towards the flow of people.

"Satsuki."

When Hou Haoyan saw Ye Hanyue stepping into the crowd without looking at him like this, he panicked, he would not stay where he was, he looked hurried, and he was about to chase Ye Hanyue when he raised his feet, but Shu Qingci, who was stopped in the middle of the road, stopped him with tears in his eyes.

"Hou Gongzi ......" Shu Qingci bit her red lips tightly, and the crystal tears in her eyes rolled back and forth, but they never fell.

She was originally a charming and weak leather statue, and now with her tearful eyes and sad looks, not only the surrounding onlookers, but also the people around her, there was pity in their hearts, and they sighed with sympathy in their mouths, and even Hou Haoyan, who was in a hurry to chase Ye Hanyue, had to stop temporarily.

Hou Haoyan looked at Shu Qingci, he was in a dilemma, he didn't know the inside story, so he didn't know which was right or who was not, so Ye Hanyue's attitude towards Shu Qingci this time, all he could do was to stay out of the matter temporarily.

If he wanted to know what happened between Shu Qingci and Ye Hanyue, he could only get past the situation in front of him one step ahead, and when he went back and investigated privately, he might be able to know the whole thing.

Of course, he could have asked Ye Hanyue directly, but with her cold and resolute look just now, Hou Haoyan knew that he had caught up with her at the moment and asked her about it, but he couldn't ask the truth.

He had to look at Shu Qingci twice, because he was worried that Ye Hanyue was alone, so he didn't hesitate anymore and bowed slightly directly to Shu Qingci.

"Miss Shu, tonight Xiaoyue will come out because of me, she will go back alone, I don't worry, tonight's ...... Let's do this first, wait until I ask Xiaoyue the reason, and then I'll talk to you about tonight's incident and say goodbye. ”

Hou Haoyan was very entangled, but the words he said all revealed that he trusted and cared about Ye Hanyue, far beyond Shu Qingci.

Otherwise, he could have directly asked Shu Qingci what happened between her and Ye Hanyue about tonight's incident.

But at this moment, he chose to ask Ye Hanyue, which shows that his thoughts about Ye Hanyue are no longer comparable to Shu Qingci.

The words have already come to this point, and Hou Haoyan didn't wait for Shu Qingci to make any reaction, so he chased into the flow of people first.

Therefore, even if Shu Qingci didn't want Hou Haoyan to chase Ye Hanyue at this moment, she had to leave a little dignity for herself, and continued to pretend to be weak according to the burning hatred in her heart, and left the tea stall with the accompanying maid in despair.

Shu Qingci would not leave the Lantern Festival so willingly, seeing that Hou Haoyan went to chase Ye Hanyue, after she left the tea stall, she walked not far and pulled the maid behind her into the alley on the side.

In an alley not far from the tea stall, there are piles of random scattered debris, because tonight is the lantern festival, this dark alley in the past, today it is a little brighter.

Shu Qingci entered the alley one moment, and the next moment he had a gloomy face, and his eyes stared viciously at the maid who followed him.

"Take this ingot of silver, be sure to find a safe person, if you can't find out where Xiaoyue's cheap maid is now staying this time, then Dong'er's fate will be yours."

"Yes, miss."

The maid hung her head and never saw her face clearly, but as Shu Qingci's words came out, her thin body suddenly trembled violently.

As she spoke, she saw that the maid took a few steps forward and took a silver ingot from Shu Qingci's hand, but she didn't care about whether it was safe for her master to stay alone in the alley, she just lowered her head and took the silver, and then hurried towards the alley.

As soon as the maid left, Shu Qingci was the only one left in the dirty alley, but her face did not show the slightest look of fear.

She just stared at the entrance of the alley, her eyes were cold, and the expression on her face was even more resentful.

She hated Ye Hanyue at the moment, she had some doubts about the relationship between Hou Haoyan and Ye Hanyue before, but at that time she thought that as long as Ye Hanyue was driven out of the Shu family.

At that time, even if Hou Haoyan wanted to find her, she couldn't find her, but now that she saw that Hou Haoyan and Ye Hanyue had reached the point of having a tryst alone, she really wished that time could be turned back, so she was fortunate that before Ye Hanyue left the Shu family, she directly and decisively solved her, and she also saved herself from suffering today's humiliation.

Ye Hanyue was indignant in her heart, and she didn't miss the juggling on the Lantern Festival too much along the way, she just blindly bypassed the flow of people and walked towards the street.

"Satsuki, listen to me first......"

She walked seriously, and suddenly a figure stopped in front of her, and before she could see anything clearly, she was imprisoned by a pair of slightly warm hands.

Ye Hanyue was not frightened, because she had already been sure in her heart that Hou Haoyan would definitely chase after her, instead of continuing to stay in front of the tea stall and look at Shu Qingci with a masked face behaving there.

It's also funny, she wasn't a person who likes to guess and take advantage of other people's feelings, but this time, in front of Hou Haoyan, she threw her sleeves away directly, obviously relying on Hou Haoyan's liking for her, and quietly used him to beat Shu Qingci's face.

In this way, she saw that Hou Haoyan really came to find her in a hurry as she guessed, and she couldn't help but feel a little panicked in her heart.

But even so, she was determined tonight and did not plan to continue to stay at the Lantern Festival, so as not to cause trouble to Huangfu Xiu.

She half-tilted her head, her expression was calm, and her little face under the lanterns was as delicate as ever. Originally, she was still unhappy, but her anger was only aimed at Shu Qingci alone, so at this moment, in the face of Hou Haoyan's nervousness, she could only temporarily suppress all the remaining qi in her heart back to the bottom of her heart, make a look of nothing, and signal Hou Haoyan to continue to explain.

Hou Haoyan probably didn't expect that when he stopped Ye Hanyue, he would encounter such a calm scene, he thought that with Ye Hanyue's way of acting in the past, he would first give him a few cold words, and then give him a chance to explain.

Hou Haoyan couldn't figure out her expression at this time, so his heart panicked instantly, and the hands that were imprisoning Ye Hanyue's shoulders were also slightly embarrassed to take it back.
