Chapter 78

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. Are you free today?"

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

Luo Shuiyao raised her eyes slightly, looking at Ye Yunzhou with a hint of expectation: "I want to find an escort agency and some reliable people to teach martial arts to the people around me and protect me."

"I wonder if you, Brother Yuan Zheng, have any suitable candidates to recommend."

Ye Yunzhou's attention was all focused on the fact that she needed protection.

His expression suddenly changed, and he asked in a very oppressive tone, "But someone wants to hurt you? Who is it? Tell me."

Luo Shuiyao was startled by his appearance and quickly comforted him: "Don't worry, those people haven't made a move yet, and I don't know if they will come to deal with me."

"It's just a precaution. The most important thing is to teach the people around me martial arts, and then protect me, so that we can be prepared. And if there is really a need, I will definitely come to you." Seeing that his face was still ugly, Luo Shuiyao emphasized again, her eyes full of sincerity.

Seeing that her expression didn't seem fake, Ye Yunzhou finally felt relieved. He pondered for a moment, "There is an escort agency that can be used, but..."

Luo Shuiyao pressed on: "Just what?"

Ye Yunzhou sighed and said, "Let me take you to have a look. If you think it's okay, you can use them. If not, I can find another one for you.

Although Luo Shuiyao didn't understand why, she still nodded and said, "Okay, then I'll have to trouble Brother Yuanzheng."

Today's main goal had been achieved, and Luo Shuiyao was no longer in the mood to continue chatting. She stood up and said to him, "Why don't we go now? It's getting late. If we delay, I'll be back too late, and the people in the mansion will be worried."

"Your home..." Yun Zhou was moved when he heard her words, and was about to take the opportunity to ask her where she lived.

As soon as he opened his mouth, Luo Shuiyao interrupted him as if he didn't notice. "Yes, as a woman, I can't be as carefree as you men. If I go back late, my family will naturally be worried. Why don't we go and come back quickly?"

Seeing this, Ye Yunzhou closed his open lips again, his Adam's apple rolled slightly, and in the end he did not bring up the unspoken words.

Luo Shuiyao turned and walked out, pretending not to notice Ye Yunzhou's abnormality, "I'll go downstairs first, you should come down quickly too."

She quickly walked to a place where Ye Yunzhou could not see her, then stopped, patted her rapidly beating heart, and breathed a long sigh of relief.

She couldn't even imagine how she would answer if she had reacted a little slower and was asked by Ye Yunzhou where she lived. Fortunately, fortunately, she was scared to death.

Ye Yunzhou watched her hurriedly leaving, and a bitter taste surged in his heart, as if he had swallowed a bitter fruit, causing waves of bitterness in his chest.

With his keen eyesight, how could he not see that she was in such a hurry to leave because she didn't want him to ask her where she would live after becoming a nun? She neither accepted his affection nor wanted him to know her maiden name or family background.

Does she really not have the slightest affection for him?

Fortunately, Luo Shuiyao didn’t know what he was thinking, otherwise he would have definitely replied to him, “Boss,” I really don’t dare to have any thoughts, okay?

Ye Yunzhou looked ahead blankly, then slowly closed his eyes. After a long while, when he opened them again, his eyes were already clear and bright: "It doesn't matter. She's still young and doesn't understand these things. I'll just wait and see. One day, she will definitely agree."

Luo Shuiyao naturally didn't know that Ye Yunzhou had already seen through her clumsy disguise, and she was even congratulating herself on her own cleverness and wit.

Downstairs, Ye Yi, Chun Xing and Du Juan were sitting around a table.

While eating melon seeds, several people watched the storyteller on the platform with great interest. The storyteller was telling the story of Concubine Gao of the previous dynasty in a vivid way.

Ye Yi turned around and saw that the two were listening with great interest, so he asked softly, "Ladies, may I ask where your young lady's residence is?"

He had long wanted to find out where Miss Yao lived. His supervisor was a prude and was too embarrassed to ask the young lady, but he had no such concerns.

After all, if there is anything in the future, the governor will always send him to run errands. Kyoto is not small, and he will have no idea where to find Miss Yao.

"My young lady is naturally..." Chun Xing didn't react for a moment and almost blurted out the words. Fortunately, she stopped when she was about to spit out the word "Marquis' Mansion".

"Snapped"

Dujuan, who was sitting next to her, suddenly slapped Chunxing's hand that was holding the melon seeds. Chunxing glanced at the back of her red hand and looked at Dujuan with grievance.

Du Juan glared at her fiercely and scolded Ye Yi, "What do you want to do? Our young lady is a boudoir girl. How can we allow a playboy like you to inquire about her where she lives?"

Just before they left, her young lady repeatedly told them to be careful not to reveal where they lived or tell anyone her real name. Just now, she was coaxed by this boy into having some tea and snacks, and she almost let the cat out of the bag.

Fortunately, he reacted quickly, and Du Juan was secretly proud of himself.

Chun Xing was also frightened and stopped eating melon seeds. She stared at Ye Yi warily, as if to say, "If you ask again, I will smash your mouth."

Ye Yi touched his nose and looked at the two people staring at him warily, and did not dare to say anything.

He wasn't afraid of the two girls, but he was afraid that if his supervisor found out, he would definitely be punished by having to train twice as hard. He didn't want that to happen.

Since I can't ask, then I won't ask. I will know it in the future.

In the following time, several people listened to the wonderful performance on the stage together without saying a word.

When Luo Shuiyao came down from upstairs, she saw Du Juan and Chun Xing sitting far away, while Ye Yi was sitting alone on the side, looking like a stranger. She raised her eyebrows slightly, thinking to herself: Did these three have an argument?

Ever since Chun Xing almost made a mistake before, she has been like a taut string, always paying attention to the movements around her, fearing that if she is not careful, she will ruin her young lady's business.

When Luo Shuiyao came down, she noticed it almost instantly, and hurriedly stood up and called out to Luo Shuiyao, "Miss."

Dujuan and Ye Yi also heard the soft call.

The two turned around when they heard the sound, only to see Luo Shuiyao coming down the stairs alone. Ye Yi stretched his neck to look behind her, but did not see the figure of his master.

Luo Shuiyao noticed Ye Yi's actions and followed his gaze upstairs, and happened to see Ye Yunzhou slowly walking down from the third floor.

She turned around and said to Ye Yi, "Look, your young master is coming down."
