The Time Traveling Anchor and Her Eight Hundred Fence-Sitters

Hearing He Xulan's voice, the two big men in the distance immediately stopped talking and looked towards the direction of Four Seasons Pavilion with frowns.

It turned out that although the two boxes were separate, they were connected at the corridor and led to a small courtyard.

A U-shaped patio structure was built at the connected place, which serves the purpose of both separation and ventilation.

On this side of the patio is the corridor of the Four Seasons Pavilion, and on the other side of the patio is the corridor of the Jiuzhou Pavilion.

From Xiao Haizhou and Feng Chen's perspective, they couldn't see Zhao Mianmian at all.

All that could be seen were the railings of the corridor of the Four Seasons Pavilion and He Xulan's face which looked exactly like Qin Shuyu's.

As soon as He Xulan walked in front of Zhao Mianmian, she felt the gaze from the other end of the patio, and she subconsciously raised her head.

But as soon as he raised his head, his eyes met those of Xiao Haizhou and Feng Chen opposite him.

[Oh no~~ Host, you are done, you were caught eavesdropping. ]

[Hahaha, this time not only the anchor was caught, but also the He family sister was implicated. I don’t know if the Xuanlin Guard will cause trouble for the He family in the future.]

[Tsk tsk tsk, judging from the way Xie Chen searched the He family last time, I guess the Xiao and He families are not on the same side. Last time the anchor just ruined the Xuanlin Guards' arrangement in Jiping Mountain, and now he's eavesdropping again, I'm afraid they're going to be at odds with each other.]

[Ah, no way, how can this be called eavesdropping? The anchor is standing here openly, who told the other party that she can't be seen? ? ]

[You can see He Xulan, but you can't see her? ? So, are you saying the anchor is... short? ? ]

【Hahahaha, I didn’t say that! 】

The audience in the live broadcast room laughed at Zhao Mianmian unscrupulously, but Zhao Mianmian didn't dare to make a sound at this moment. She could only squat on the ground, holding He Xulan's pants tightly, praying that the plague god opposite would leave quickly.

Based on He Xulan's personality, she would definitely be angry if someone grabbed her pants like this.

But at this moment, Xiao Haizhou's gaze had already fallen on her, which was even colder than the snow in the coldest days of winter. He Xulan could not care less. She could only grit her teeth, pretend to be calm, bend her knees, and salute him across the sky.

"Meet Master Xiao."

Xiao Haizhou didn't say anything, but raised his hand and waved, indicating Feng Chen to leave first.

As soon as Feng Chen left, Xiao Haizhou's somewhat indifferent voice reached the ears of He Xulan and Zhao Mianmian across the palm-sized patio:

"Do you know where this place is?"

He Xulan was confused by Xiao Haizhou's question, and she felt even more unsure.

He Xulan was afraid that she would inadvertently offend Master Xiao, who was in charge of the Xuanlin Guard, so she had to look around and then gritted her teeth and stammered out an ambiguous answer.

After hearing this, Xiao Haizhou curled his lips and sneered, saying:

"Beidi and Dongying are just some small foreign countries, there is nothing to be afraid of. What we should be afraid of is those foreigners who bring disaster to the country and the people, under the banner of freedom and equality, do things that are against Tiangang in my world."

He Xulan didn't know how to respond to Xiao Haizhou's words, but when she heard him mention Beidi and Dongying, and then mentioned foreigners, her heart skipped a beat and she had a bad feeling.

As for Zhao Mianmian, she was squatting on the ground and almost crying.

But the comments were still popping out one by one without any hurry:

[Tsk tsk, why do I feel like Dad Xiao is saying this to the anchor? ]

[What I said before is correct. This is what I meant for the host.

He Xulan is just a young lady who never goes out of the house. What connection could she have with Master Xiao?

I'm afraid Xiao Haizhou saw through the incident at Jiping Paddock last time and took the opportunity to teach the anchor a lesson! 】

[Hahaha, when it comes to aura, it has to be my father Xiao. When father Xiao shows up, the anchors don't even dare to fart! ]

[Uh, wait, are you serious about calling me "Dad Xiao"? ]

[Hey, if you are serious or not, just ask the anchor. She is the one who recognized him as her father, not us! ]

Zhao Mianmian:

【○?｀Д′? ○】

Fortunately, He Xulan was not stupid. She realized that Xiao Haizhou had bad intentions, so she quickly found an excuse and slipped away.

"Xu Lan has been out for a long time. My mother is getting anxious. I will take my leave now. Best wishes to Master Xiao."

He Xulan ran away, and Zhao Mianmian also hurriedly got up to catch up, running like a Hot Wheels, which made Xiao Haizhou's mouth twitch and he almost couldn't hold it together.

Just as the two sisters of the He family left the corridor, someone somersaulted down from the wall.

It's Wang Yuan.

Wang Yuan looked at the anxious backs of the two sisters, then looked at Xiao Haizhou's expression, and scratched his head in confusion:

"Sir, the He family's eldest daughter is only thirteen years old. Why are you scaring her?"

Xiao Haizhou's smile faded and he raised his eyelids slightly:

"Oh? Is Miss He here too? I didn't notice."

Wang Yuan: “…”

Jiang Yinan hadn't been back to Beijing for a long time, so he booked the Four Seasons Pavilion for the whole day.

Not only Qin Shuyu was invited, but also the wife of Lord Yao from the Ministry of Water Resources and the wife of Lord Qian from the Ministry of Personnel.

Several ladies and young ladies chatted about past fun events and the latest gossip in the capital in the Four Seasons Pavilion. They also listened to the singing girls' songs and tasted the new cakes made by the chef of the teahouse. They were all happy and at ease, as if they were at home.

Except Zhao Mianmian.

Zhao Mianmian lost interest in the gossip after listening to it for a while. One side of the Four Seasons Pavilion faced the water, and the other side was the corridor where she had just hidden. There was no other place to go.

She hesitated for a while, and finally poked her head out towards the door to see if Xiao Haizhou had left.

Mrs. Yao, who had just returned from outside, saw her and poked the two little tufts of hair on her head, asking her what she was looking at.

Zhao Mianmian's eyes lit up when she saw Mrs. Yao.

I thought that I was afraid of Xiao Haizhou, but not everyone else might be afraid of him.

Then could she find someone to help her find out whether Xiao Haizhou had left?

So Zhao Mianmian smiled and said to Madam Yao:

"Aunt, Mianmian wants to go to the yard to play, but she's afraid of running into outsiders."

When Mrs. Yao heard this, she immediately covered her mouth and teased her in front of everyone:

"Oh, I didn't expect that although this Mian Jie looks young, she is actually a well-behaved person and knows how to avoid outsiders."

"Unlike our Hui Jie, who is so naughty at her age that she can't even climb up the roof and tear down the tiles. How can she be so obedient!"

The commentators heard this and started to laugh at Zhao Mianmian in the live broadcast room:

[Wow, "I want to play in the yard" and "I'm afraid of running into strangers." Host, your nonsense skills are getting better and better! ]

[Outsider? What outsider?! That's your father Xiao! ! ]

【Hahahaha, Dad Xiao! 】

Zhao Mianmian didn't want to pay attention to them. She twitched her lips and looked at Qin Shuyu obediently, waiting for her to speak.

Qin Shuyu first followed Madam Yao's words and praised Sister Hui:

"What are you talking about? It's because your sister Hui is lively. Unlike our sister Mian, she is timid and doesn't dare to be the first to do anything."

After praising Hui Jie'er, she specially found someone to go to the yard to investigate.

Only after learning that the guests in the next room had left and no one would come in for a while did he let Zhao Mianmian go.

Zhao Mianmian grabbed two handfuls of cakes and ran out happily.

She took a special look as she walked around the corridor connecting the two courtyards.

Sure enough, there was not even a ghost, so he walked a few more steps outside with confidence and went to the small courtyard outside.
