Chapter 39: Banquet at the Hongmen

Cheng Shuiyao glanced at Moqi, didn't say anything, and walked upstairs briskly.

Xiao Ji saw her disappear at the staircase, so he walked slowly to the opposite side of Moqi and poured himself a cup of tea.

"Master, I've been contacted over there," Moqi's words were vague, but Xiao Ji could easily understand what he meant.

"Is there any news?" Xiao Ji shook the teacup, it seemed that he was just blowing tea, but he was actually communicating with Moqi.

Cheng Shuiyao went and returned, standing on the stairs on the second floor, carefully identifying the mouth shapes of the two people.

She was not stupid, she knew that something was happening just when she saw Xiao Ji's expression, but Xiao Ji intended to support her, so she could only quietly hide and watch.

Mo Qi shook his head, also picked up a bowl of tea, and then spoke, "You should have to wait a while." ”

"Hmm," Xiao Ji put down the teacup, gave Moqi a look, and left the unknown without changing his face, and walked upstairs.

Cheng Shuiyao saw Xiao Ji walking up, and hurriedly turned around and entered the house, pretending that nothing had happened and eating the food she had just bought.

When Xiao Ji entered the door, he saw this scene, and said helplessly, "Aren't you full?" ”

"After walking for so long, of course I'll be hungry!" Cheng Shuiyao spoke very reasonably, and kindly handed Xiao Ji a piece.

Xiao Ji didn't refuse, took it and took a bite, and his expression suddenly felt a little bad.

"Fooled, right?" Cheng Shuiyao smiled a little chicken thief, "The boss told me that this is a strange bean, each bean has a different taste, what is the taste of yours?" ”

"Indescribable," Xiao Ji shrugged his shoulders and hurriedly poured himself a glass of water to drink.

"It seems that what the boss said is right," Cheng Shuiyao raised her eyebrows and tasted the remaining ones one by one.

These beans are different from sweet and sour, and the expression on Cheng Shuiyao's face was a little wonderful for a while.

"By the way, what did you just say to Moqi?" After Cheng Shuiyao finished eating the beans, he asked as if he suddenly remembered.

"It's just about buying a house," Xiao Ji said in a calm tone, casually lying.

"Oh, have you found the right place?" Cheng Shuiyao nodded, and then spoke.

"No," Xiao Ji shook his head, "but he said that he would go to see the two new houses tomorrow and come back to deliver the news when the time comes." ”

Cheng Shuiyao nodded and yawned lightly.

"Are you sleepy?" Xiao Ji looked at the tears she hadn't had time to wipe away, and her tone slowed down.

Cheng Shuiyao nodded, walked to the side of the bed by herself, and instructed Xiao Ji, "I'll sleep for a while, and then you can wake me up if there's something." ”

Xiao Ji responded, covered her with a quilt intimately, and then left the house.

Cheng Shuiyao breathed a sigh of relief and quietly entered the space.

Although she didn't understand what Xiao Ji and Mo Qi said just now, she knew that it must have nothing to do with buying a house by looking at the looks of the two of them.

And looking at Xiao Ji's expression, you can know that this matter is not simple.

Cheng Shuiyao carefully recalled the original book, and then slowly frowned.

In the original book, after Xiao Ji and Moshu met, they secretly sent them out to investigate Xiao Zhenheng's case, and finally blackened because they knew the truth of the case.

"I didn't expect that after going around for so long, Xiao Ji still returned to this main line," Cheng Shuiyao sighed, a little helpless.

I just don't know if Xiao Ji will be as extreme as in the original book this time.

Cheng Shuiyao lay on her back on the ground, a little undecided.

No matter what, you have to watch Xiao Ji to prevent him from going down the path in the original book.

Cheng Shuiyao sighed again, made up her mind, and got up to look at the vegetables grown in the field.

It's much faster to grow vegetables in the space than outside, which she planted two days ago and can now be harvested soon.

I don't know if these vegetable seedlings can survive when they move outside?

Cheng Shuiyao watered them, crossed her waist and glanced at them a few times, and turned her head to look at the vegetables harvested before.

I don't know if it's because she soaked it in spiritual spring water, but these dishes haven't shown any signs of decay until now.

"But we have to move them out as soon as possible," Cheng Shuiyao counted the numbers again and left the space.

She wasn't really sleepy, she just said that just to take Xiao Ji away, so that she could enter the space without scruples.

The room was extremely quiet at the moment, and Cheng Shuiyao couldn't think of anything fun, so she simply closed her eyes.

I didn't expect this sleep to be a long time.

When Cheng Shuiyao woke up again, it was a little dark outside.

Pushing open the door and looking down on the stairs, Cheng Shuiyao saw Xiao Ji at a glance, hurriedly rubbed his head and walked down, and shouted from afar, "What time is it now?" ”

"It's time for dinner in half an hour," Xiao Ji picked up the teapot and poured her a glass of water, then placed it in front of her.

Cheng Shuiyao picked up the teacup and drank it all, and then lazily lay on the table, obviously not very awake.

"Are you not feeling well?" Xiao Ji frowned, reached out and touched her head, but didn't notice anything unusual.

Cheng Shuiyao shook her head, yawned again, and slowly straightened up.

"It's just that I've slept a little little in the past few days."

"You really don't need to find a Lang Zhong to take a look?" Xiao Ji asked uneasily, and when he saw Cheng Shuiyao waving his hand again and again, he could be regarded as dispelling his thoughts.

At this moment, a person dressed as a subordinate entered the lobby, looked around, and walked directly to Cheng Shuiyao with his legs raised.

"Our lord invited the two of you to go to his house to talk, this is the post."

With that, the man took out two posts from his arms and handed them to the two of them.

Cheng Shuiyao took it back and looked at it, and his eyes fell on Li Shanhai at the end.

It seems that the thing is done.

Cheng Shuiyao closed the post, stood up, and looked at the people on the side with a smile, "Since Master Li is holding a banquet, then we must freshen up, you wait here for a while." ”

"That's nature," the subordinate didn't look dissatisfied, and leaned sideways to make way for the two.

Xiao Ji glanced at Cheng Shuiyao, and when he saw that the latter gave him a look, he immediately understood and followed Cheng Shuiyao upstairs.

Closing the door, Xiao Ji smiled and turned his head to look at Cheng Shuiyao, his eyes full of surprise, "This matter really made you count." ”

"It's just a matter of nine times out of ten," Cheng Shuiyao waved his hand, not at all proud, "It's just that today's banquet is probably not simple." ”

"He just set up a Hongmen banquet, and we will go too," Xiao Ji also thought of this stubble, but there was no resistance at all.

When Cheng Shuiyao heard this, she immediately swallowed back the words she was about to blurt out, and nodded at him, "Since you are so sure, then I don't need to prepare anything, wait for me to change my clothes, and we will leave." ”

Xiao Ji nodded and left the house quickly.

Cheng Shuiyao rubbed her head, which was still a little uncomfortable, took a piece of clothing and changed it, and made a not too ostentatious look.
