Qin Mufeng's almost perfect eyebrows and eyes stared at the book spread out in front of him, his heart choked, and the hand on the table suddenly tightened into a fist.

He had been sitting in this position for a long time, until his limbs were a little stiff and began to numb.

Do you want to fulfill her?

He asked himself repeatedly, but there was still no definite answer.

What he doesn't know, however, is that sometimes no answer is the best answer.

Intellectually, he wants to let go of Yunxi in a chic way, but emotions have been pulling all his nerves in the opposite direction.

In the end, he was still unwilling.

He hated himself for not being able to face his heart earlier, and regretted that he chose to escape when he first realized it.

If he had been willing to face up to his inner feelings, things might have been different.

Before that, he had never done anything or a decision that he regretted.

Because he knows that regret is the most impractical and useless thing in this world, just like ifs.

There are no ifs, let alone regrets.

In the end, in this tug-of-war between reason and emotion, reason prevailed.

He comforted himself: It's okay to leave some dignity for himself in her heart.

He moved his numb arm and picked up the wolf pen on the pen holder.

A sharp Qin character fell, something was being withdrawn from his body, and he couldn't tell where the pain came from made the pen in his hand pause for a moment.

"The eldest son."

Qin Yi's deliberately lowered voice sounded outside the door of the study, and Qin Mufeng breathed a sigh of relief as if he had been rescued suddenly.

He put down the wolf pen in his hand, like throwing away a hot potato.

"Come in."

"Master, I have found out clearly, it was Madame who hired the killers of Suohulou to hunt you down. In addition, there are some new discoveries about the things you asked your subordinate Miss Chaliu to do before. ”

Qin Mufeng's pupils flickered, and there was an inexplicable expectation in his heart that even he couldn't tell what it was.

As soon as Qin saw him looking at him, he continued: "Miss Liu has the guidance of the dart god Wu Xufa, and she has some talent in secret weapons. Just ......"

Qin Yi didn't know whether to express his suspicions or not, so he hesitated.

Qin Yi was trained by Qin Mufeng, and he couldn't be clearer about his little problems and habits.

"Just what?"

"The subordinates felt a little strange. Before meeting you, Miss Liu never seemed to have used the silver needle, and because of Miss Yun's relationship, she seemed to be a little disgusted with the silver needle. ”

He didn't say anything more, leaving enough time for Qin Mufeng to make his own judgment.

Qin Mufeng thought seriously for a while, it didn't make sense that Qin Yi could think of a question, but he couldn't think of it.

"Is the message accurate?"

"You can't go wrong."

Will it be what he thinks? Qin Mufeng's heartbeat suddenly increased.

He suppressed the excitement in his heart: "Qin Yi, you go and verify this matter personally, in addition," he took out two silver needles from under the table and handed them to him: "Find out the origin of these two silver needles." ”

Qin Yi took the silver needle, and his heart was bitter.

This gold-tailed silver needle is okay, after all, it is not common, but another silver needle is so common that you can see it everywhere......

"I need three days to know the results."

“…… Be! ”

Qin Yi swallowed the bitterness in his heart, hesitated but was extremely sure.

Qin Mufeng picked up the half-signed and left book with heavy eyes, and tore it to pieces a few times.

Yun Xi thought about it and felt that he should go and get back the deed of sale in person, and discuss Yunhu's matter by the way.

As soon as she entered the gate of the Hou Mansion, Liu Ruyan got the news and rushed over to block her way, looking at Yunxi with a defensive expression.

"What are you doing here? Who put you in? ”

“…… I'll take and leave the book. Yun Xi decided that he must take a good look at the yellow calendar before going out next time.

"You'd better tell the truth, otherwise don't blame me for making you unable to stay in the entire Lijing City."

Yun Xi frowned, deciding not to lower his compulsion and deal with mad dogs.

"If you don't stop me, I'll be faster. Of course, if you don't have confidence in yourself and feel that you are inferior to me, you can go with me. ”

Liu Ruyan, who originally wanted to follow: "...... Just you? Not worthy of being my opponent. ”

Yun Xi hid the smile in his eyes, and he couldn't be happy in his heart.

Hum! Small, fight with my sister, you are still a little tender.

Under Liu Ruyan's gritted teeth, she walked straight to Qin Mufeng's study with elegant steps.

"Grandma."

Qin Er, who was guarding outside the door of the study, saw that she was coming, and greeted her as usual, but Yun Xi corrected him with a cold face: "You recognized the wrong person." ”

"......" Qin Er silently closed his mouth, you are the master, I don't dare to fight back.

Qin Mufeng, who was painting in the study, heard the movement outside the door, and hurriedly covered the half-painted painting with blank cooked rice paper.

He stabilized his mind and went to open the door for Yunxi in person.

The door was suddenly opened from the inside, and Yun Xi's hand knocking on the door hung in the air, and the atmosphere was a little awkward.

Qin Mufeng glanced at Qin Er, and Qin Er silently walked away.

Seeing that Yun Xi didn't mean to enter the study, he asked knowingly, "Don't you go in and say?" ”

Yun Xi pinched the silver ticket of one hundred taels of gold, and thought that he still had to negotiate with him about Yunhu, so he walked in with a natural expression.

"This is a silver ticket of one hundred taels of gold."

Qin Mufeng's heart flashed with dense pain, how did this hundred taels of gold come from, you don't need to ask.

He didn't care about her deed of sale, what he cared about was the love between her and Bai Chen who could borrow so much money at one time.

He thought that Bai Chen would not be as shameless as him, borrowing people's silver and mortgaging the deed of sale in exchange.

Qin Mufeng saw that she was looking at herself fixedly, her face was inexplicably a little hot, not because she was shy, but because she was ashamed of what she had done in the first place.

He reached for the bag on his waist and wanted to return the deed of sale to her as agreed, but he took it out.

He poured out all the contents of the bag without giving up.

There was nothing but two seals.

Yun Xi frowned, and had some bad premonitions in his heart.

"I'm sorry, I can't find the deed of sale for a while. But don't worry, I'll give it back to you as soon as I find it. ”

The expression on Yun Xi's face was terribly cold, but there was no other way, she took a deep breath and resisted the urge to curse.

"The letter of resignation should be signed, right?"

Qin Mufeng's body stiffened, and the bitterness in his heart spread to every corner of his body along his limbs.

"No, I"

"Huh!"

Yun Xi finally sneered unbearably.

This sneer was like an invisible slap on Qin Mufeng's face, making his whole face hot.

Before he could say anything, he heard her say again: "You are very good, Qin Mufeng." ”

He chuckled in his heart: "Yunxi, you listen to my explanation, I"
