"Come again tomorrow? Isn't she angry? Is she going to treat you to a meal again?" Ye Yi asked doubtfully.

Ye Yunzhou shook his head. "No, she returned the money to me and asked me to give her the IOU."

Ye Yi “…”

He was at a loss for words. The woman his governor liked was really unconventional!

.........

In Qingyou Pavilion, Ye Yunzhou looked depressed, and his heart was full of annoyance, making him feel uneasy. He stood up and looked out the window, seemingly unintentionally, but in fact he was searching for something intentionally.

When Ye Yi opened the door, he saw this scene. This made his originally anxious heart even more gloating. "Oh, aren't you very relaxed? Just sit there."

Ye Yunzhou turned around after hearing this and looked at him expressionlessly, his eyes seemed to be able to shoot out cold light.

At this moment, a carriage slowly came in the direction he had been looking at. If he was still staring out the window, he would definitely see the person he had been thinking about day and night getting off the carriage.

When Ye Yi saw him like this, he couldn't help but shrink his neck and stood up with a cowardly look on his face.

"Hehe, I was just joking just now, just a joke. Don't be angry, I'll keep an eye on you again." After saying that, he turned sideways and quickly slipped out of the door.

Seeing how cowardly he was, Ye Yunzhou couldn't help but laugh in anger. With such courage, he still dared to provoke him again and again.

His gaze slowly moved down and landed on the tea and snacks that had been prepared on the table. He couldn't help feeling a little discouraged. Is she really not coming?

Ye Yiyi trotted downstairs, let out a long sigh, and muttered to himself, "What a pretense! How can he get married if he cares so much about face?"

He strolled slowly around the hall and reached the door. Looking up, he saw a girl in a hood walking toward him, accompanied by two maids. One of them was the little maid named Dujuan from yesterday. His face lit up with joy, and he quickly called out, "Hey! Miss Yao!"

When Luo Shuiyao saw Ye Yi waving at her foolishly, the corners of her mouth twitched slightly: What Miss Yao? What a strange name!

Such a big fool is the first person around the big boss in the original novel. Could it be that she has read a fake book?

"Miss Yao, you are finally back."

Ye Yi quickened his pace and walked forward, "Let's go up quickly, my master has been waiting for you for a long time."

Luo Shuiyao nodded slightly, then turned to the two maids, Du Juan and Chun Xing, and asked, "Do you want to go up with me?"

Du Juan waved her hands hurriedly, "Chun Xing and I will just wait here for you to come down, just like we did yesterday. We won't be going up."

Chun Xing also nodded repeatedly like a chick pecking at rice.

Seeing this, Luo Shuiyao did not force it. She immediately turned to Ye Yi and said, "Let's go."

Ye Yi smiled and hurriedly led the way.

Luo Shuiyao felt relieved to leave Dujuan and Chunxing here. After all, Chunxing was extremely powerful. If anyone was so foolish as to provoke them, they would not get any benefit at all.

She brought Chun Xing out today because she was afraid that the Liu family would plot against her behind her back. As for the fact that Ye Yunzhou would find out that Chun Xing was a maid in the Marquis' Mansion, she was not too worried.

First, Ye Yunzhou had just returned from the battlefield, and Chun Xing was just a lowly maid before. She also asked several people in her courtyard, and except for Nanny Zhang, no one had ever seen Ye Yunzhou, so she was not afraid of them meeting Ye Yunzhou.

Following Ye Yi, he went upstairs.

Luo Shuiyao discovered that the room Ye Yunzhou chose today was still Qingyou Pavilion from yesterday. Standing at the door of Qingyou Pavilion, Ye knocked on the door, and a short and powerful voice came from inside.

"Come in"

Ye Yi bowed to Luo Shuiyao, winked at her, then turned and walked downstairs.

Luo Shuiyao took a deep breath, calmed herself down, and then slowly pushed the door open and walked in.

Inside the room, Ye Yunzhou was still sitting in the same seat as yesterday, with the same tea and snacks on the table. Luo Shuiyao felt dazed for a moment, as if today and yesterday overlapped, as if yesterday was an unreal dream.

Seeing her standing at the door and not coming in, Ye Yunzhou frowned slightly and said in a deep voice, "Come in and sit down."

Luo Shuiyao stepped forward but did not sit down directly. Instead, she bowed to Ye Yunzhou and said, "Yesterday, I lost my temper and got angry at you. I hope Brother Yuan Zheng will not be angry."

Ye Yunzhou stared into her eyes, and after a while he slowly said, "I'm not angry with you."

He had never been angry with her. In his eyes, she was lovable even when she was in a bad mood. That look always made him want to tease her. Even when he saw her embarrassed and angry, his heart was filled with joy.

Luo Shuiyao was skeptical about Ye Yunzhou's words. She had read the original novel and possessed a golden finger. She knew that Ye Yunzhou had a cold and cruel personality and was never a good person. Not many people dared to yell at him like that.

Yesterday, she lost her temper with Ye Yunzhou in a fit of impulse. Afterwards, she felt a little scared and quickly slipped away. On the way here today, she secretly thought that she must apologize to him first and make him happy. After all, she did not have the capital to be angry with him now.

Luo Shuiyao obediently went forward and sat down, lowering her eyes to cheer herself up. After a moment, she raised her head again, staring at Ye Yunzhou with almond-shaped eyes, "Brother Yuan Zheng, did you get the IOU back?"

This was the reason she gave before leaving yesterday, so she naturally had to mention it today, otherwise it would seem fake and Ye Yunzhou would not get suspicious when he thought about it later.

Ye Yunzhou lowered his eyes slightly, looking at the teacup in his hands, his fingers turning slightly white from the pressure. He slowly raised his head, his eyes fixed on Luo Shuiyao, his voice low and slightly magnetic: "What? Are you afraid that I'll ask you for the two hundred taels again? Or... are you worried about something else?"

Luo Shuiyao was flustered by his aggressive gaze and shook her head like a rattle. "Brother Yuan Zheng, that's not what I meant."

"I just feel that it's only natural that I should pay back my debts and give me my IOU. If you don't, I'll always feel like I owe you two hundred taels, and I won't be able to sleep peacefully."

Ye Yunzhou looked at Luo Shuiyao's cautious appearance, his anger subsided, and his heart softened: "How could I be such a mean person?"

Luo Shuiyao heard the gentleness in his words and became bolder. She smiled and said, "I knew that Brother Yuan Zheng, you are the best person in the world."

Ye Yunzhou shook his head helplessly, but a hint of fondness flashed in his eyes. Unfortunately, Luo Shuiyao didn't dare to look Ye Yunzhou in the face because she felt guilty and lied, and once again missed the opportunity to know the truth.

After the two of them had some tea and snacks, Luo Shuiyao looked at Ye Yunzhou and said, "Brother Yuan Zheng, I have a favor to ask of you. Could you please help me?"

Ye Yunzhou nodded slightly and said concisely, "What's the matter? Tell me."
