Hu Luanfei has never been the kind of person who likes to fuss over trivial matters. After her knot in her heart was untied, she felt very relieved about Qi Siliao's return.

It seemed like she hadn't slept for a long time. It was drizzling outside, the sky was overcast, and the ground was moist. There was one more person on the small bed with only a thin layer of quilt. Qi Si Liao hugged her and slept soundly, quietly and warmly.

Around dusk, a voice called out from outside the woods, shouting at Qi Siriao to take Hu Luanfei to the Saint's residence.

Hu Luanfei woke up earlier than Qi Siliao. She was hugged and couldn't move. Her arms were numb and stiff. Fortunately, she massaged quickly and found clothes for Qi Siliao before he woke up.

He seldom slept so deeply before. His eyes were still blurry when he opened them for a moment. He hugged the "person" in his arms, and suddenly felt something was wrong. He quickly opened his eyes wide and looked down, then sat up and prepared to get out of bed.

Hu Luanfei, who watched Qi Siriao's little movements throughout, twitched his mouth in confusion, and could almost foresee how sticky the days to come would be.

"What are you looking for? Hurry up and get dressed. We still have to go back to Taohua Village."

Qi Siliao suddenly pulled Hu Luanfei over. She lost her balance and fell towards the bed. Fortunately, he was quick to catch her. "I thought, I thought this was just a dream..."

The hand that was supporting the quilt suddenly clenched. Hu Luanfei was afraid that he would reveal his inner ecstasy at this moment, so he bit his shoulder and said, "Don't scare me like this next time."

"Okay." He agreed without thinking.

Hu Luanfei threw the clothes to him and turned his back. "I'll wait for you outside. Hurry up and don't waste time."

Qi Siliao: “…”

When Qi Si Liao was dressed and opened the door, Hu Luanfei looked up at him. He was wearing a black coarse linen shirt and had a handsome face, but his expression was indifferent, which added a bit of coldness to his handsomeness. Although he looked good, his hairstyle made her dislike him more and more.

"Your Majesty."

"What's wrong?" Qi Siliao lowered his eyes, foreseeing that there were some unknown thoughts brewing in her mind.

"If you are a little shorter, I will help you fix your hair." Hu Luanfei pulled off the red headband of his braid, and his black hair immediately became loose.

Qi Siriao walked across the corridor and sat down on a bamboo chair.

Hu Luanfei looked at the red hairband in his hand, frowning slightly, "Who gave it to me?"

Qi Siliao looked straight ahead, "Saint."

"Hmph." Hu Luanfei threw the red hairband away, and it fell on the rainy ground, and soon it was stained with muddy yellow. She took off the light blue hairband that tied her braids, and pulled the hair on both sides of her head back one by one. Because the hairband was small, she only tied it halfway back.

She stroked her chin and looked around, then said something that deserved a beating without thinking: "This is quite similar to Qi Sili."

After all, it is not reasonable for half-brothers to be alike. But when Qi Siriao heard it, he heard something else.

"Miss him?" Qi Siliao thought he was a man of measured action and rarely got angry. But at this moment, he felt that she saw the shadow of another person in him, and he unconsciously felt a little uncomfortable.

Hu Luanfei didn't hide it and said, "After all, he has helped us a lot in the past few months when you were away. When we have time, we must thank him in person."

"Just that?" His tone was full of jealousy and oppression.

Hu Luanfei lowered his eyes, "If not, what should you do?"

Seeing that she was not joking, Qi Siliao was speechless and prepared to pull off the hairband. But when he touched the hairband, a refreshing fragrance slowly floated into the air and suddenly stopped.

"My beloved, who do you think is more handsome, me or Qi Sili?" His eyes were sharp and stern as he stared at her like a hungry wolf staring at a sheep.

Hu Luanfei touched his face, traced his eyebrows with his thumb, and said bluntly: "You are full of tendons and your movements are rough. You are no different from a country thug."

Qi Si Liao's face darkened, and just as he was about to speak, Hu Luan Fei blocked his words in his throat, "But I like you who are wild, domineering, yet gentle."

Men are the easiest to coax. A few sweet words can easily make him lose his way. He had been to the Saint's bamboo house many times, but this time, surprisingly, he kept taking the wrong path. When the two of them appeared in front of everyone, lanterns and torches had been lit nearby.

The second master sat at the door waiting for them for a long time. He turned around with a grim face and saw them walking slowly towards him hand in hand, his eyes flickering with fire.

What is he angry about?

Not long after, the village chief, who was also the saint's grandfather, came out of the house and stared at the couple with intense anger.

"Have you found out?" Hu Luanfei asked in advance.

The second master said with a cold face: "My niece is ignorant, please forgive me, Princess Zhan."

"Of course I won't bother with a child. But she has come to harm our sheep time and again and even injured my family. I can't just sit there and watch."

The second master said coldly: "What do you want?"

"Let her go and apologize to our people."

"Don't even think about it." Before the second master could reply, the old man next to him replied first. He looked down on people and glared at Hu Luanfei. "As far as I know, the two people who were injured were just servants of your family. Why should the saint of our Boyang Village apologize to them?"

"Just because she beat someone up."

The old man sneered: "Being able to be beaten by the Saint Girl is a blessing they have cultivated for eight lifetimes."

"They have been with us through thick and thin. I have long regarded them as my own family and treated them with respect. If your people have hurt our people and you still dare to speak so shamelessly, don't blame me for being ruthless."

"Hmph, you're going to come here alone today?" The old man was born to be a protective person, and he doted on the Saint girl very much. Although he was usually too annoyed to even look at her, in fact, if anyone dared to disrespect his granddaughter, he would definitely turn into a protective wolf.

"You insist on going against me?" Hu Luanfei rolled up his sleeves, his face full of anger.

The old man raised his head and said, "I don't care where you are from, in my Boyang Village, as long as I don't want you to, you can't leave safely!"

"How dare you threaten me." Hu Luanfei pointed at the weeds placed in the corner of the wall, "I will not let you off the hook for poisoning me. I have sent someone to report to the authorities. You will stay in jail for a while..."

Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by the old man's sneer, "Bei Qiu can't do anything to us, how can you, a mere county magistrate of Menghu Mountain, do anything to me?"

"It seems that you are not afraid even though you know our identities. You must have a more powerful backer protecting you." Hu Luanfei said with a smile.

However, before the eldest grandfather could respond, the second grandfather chimed in, "The poisoning may not have been done by someone from our village. Please go back, I will find out the truth..."

"Don't deny it. I'm going to fight you today." Hu Luanfei clapped his hands, and Jiang Yi and Jiang Er, who were on standby in the woods, came out wearing straw raincoats and tied up two people.
