Chi Li has become much calmer recently. The last assassination attempt left a heavy shadow on her, and she no longer cares about jewelry and diamonds.

She had the rocking chair moved under the big tree in the yard, put her injured leg on the table, and ate grapes comfortably in the sun.

"Miss, there is some movement in that yard." Xiaoba, the maid who has been familiar with Chi Li for a long time, leaned close to her ear and said.

"What? You dare to take my life while I'm sick? Help me up quickly, I can still fight." Chi Li spat out the grape skin and said fiercely.

Xiao Ba made the other person greedy, and the two of them went to pick a fight aggressively.

Chi Likong wanted to find trouble, but before he reached his destination, he was found trouble first.

"Miss, two people came to the door and said that your mother and brother were yelling and refusing to leave. Do you want to tell the young marshal?" The housekeeper was planning to ask Bai Zhenxi for instructions, but met Chi Li on the way.

"Nonsense, I popped out from a crack in the rock. Can't you see the surging spiritual energy surrounding me?" Chi Li straightened his back and boasted.

Who is talking nonsense? The old butler didn't understand the young man's train of thought and could only smile awkwardly but politely.

"You can see that the young lady is full of spiritual energy from her hair to her toes. It is about to drown the entire Yuncheng." Xiao Ba has been taking advantage of Chi Li a lot. She has made up her mind to be Chi Li's most loyal lackey. Her answer at this moment will definitely not disappoint Chi Li.

Just as Xiaoba thought, Chi Li was overjoyed. She felt that Xiaoba was extremely smart and second only to her.

Chi Li waved her hand at the housekeeper and said, "Don't tell the young commander, I can handle it. Just ask those two imposters to wait at the door!"

The butler nodded and left.

Xiao Ba supported Chi Li and walked quickly into Bai Zhenxi's yard.

"Hey, Adjutant Li, are you enjoying the beautiful scenery?" As soon as Chi Li entered the yard, she saw the handsome Adjutant Li standing in front of the round archway.

"Miss, please stop teasing me. The young marshal is busy with official business and I'm afraid he doesn't have time..."

Lieutenant Li was only halfway through his words when Chi Li interrupted him: "Xiao Li, who are you trying to fool? Jiang Yue must be in there!"

Adjutant Li smiled awkwardly and said, "Miss, I'm just an employee. Please don't make things difficult for me. The young marshal is handsome and has a wealthy family. It's understandable that women keep throwing themselves at him. Unlike ordinary people like us, we can only live with one."

His words confirmed the relationship between Bai Zhenxi and Jiang Yue. Chi Li always felt that something was wrong. She always felt that Adjutant Li's face had changed and became a little greasy. It must be an illusion. Chi Li looked away and looked at the green grass beside her.

Seeing Chi Li remained silent, Lieutenant Li continued, "To be honest, I do have some family background. If the young lady needs help, I will do my best."

"You are really helpful." Chi Li said meaningfully, and then walked towards Bai Zhenxi's study.

The sobbing sounds in the house were heartbreaking. Chi Li did not push the door open at the first moment, but her gossip soul was burning. She was also curious about the possibility that she was being cuckolded.

Chi Li put his ear against the door, and Xiao Ba followed suit and also put his ear against the door.

"Young Marshal, I have already given you my innocence. I have also prepared the dowry and am waiting for you to propose. If you don't want me, how can I live with dignity?"

Bai Zhenxi's response was quite cold: "Since you have the nerve to drug me, you certainly have the nerve to live. Besides, I didn't even touch you, so please don't slander me, Miss Jiang."

Chi Li was delighted. She knocked on the door politely and asked, "Can I come in?"

Bai Zhenxi's tone softened instantly: "Come in."

Chi Li was supported by Xiao Ba, and the two of them held their heads high and swaggered into the study, pushing open the door.

"Oh, it's my bad luck that I came. If I had known she was coming, I wouldn't have come." Chi Li glanced at Jiang Yue and lowered her eyes.

Jiang Yue got angry when she saw her like this.

"She'll be leaving soon." Bai Zhenxi stepped forward to take Xiao Ba's place and supported Chi Li.

Jiang Yue didn't want to leave at all because she didn't achieve her goal, but she also didn't want to see Chi Li, so she lowered her head and didn't say anything or leave.

Bai Zhenxi was about to ask her to leave, but Chi Li grabbed Bai Zhenxi's hand and signaled him not to speak.

Bai Zhenxi obediently swallowed back what he was about to say.

Chi Li slapped Bai Zhenxi's hand, and before Bai Zhenxi could react, she snuggled into his arms again, resting her hands on his chest muscles. She leaned her head against him softly and said in a strangled voice, "I miss you, you bastard."

Bai Zhenxi wondered if there was such a good thing in the world. The sudden sweetness made him dizzy and speechless.

Chi Li was waiting for Bai Zhenxi to perform with her, but instead she got a dazed look. She grabbed Bai Zhenxi's powerful chest muscles twice to try to bring him back to his senses.

He regained consciousness, but he felt even stranger. He felt as if his body was on fire. His entire body turned red like a cooked shrimp, and he stammered, "I'm not... a dead ghost..."

Chi Li was silent.

Xiao Ba looked away without even watching.

Brother, you're really not good enough. Thinking of this, Chi Li's face became more excited, and her voice became more shrill. Her fists gently beat Bai Zhenxi's chest with her own rhythm: "Hate, hate, hate, I'm going to beat your chest with my little fists."

Xiao Ba admitted that the distance between her and Chi Li was not a little bit. This woman could actually say and do such uncomfortable words and actions in front of so many people. Chi Li was really a terrifying person.

"Why do you hate me?" Bai Zhenxi completely ignored the shyness on Chi Li's face.

Chi Li was about to collapse. She withdrew her movements and sighed helplessly. Then she raised her hands and tightly grasped Bai Zhenxi's clothes and whispered in his ear: "Big fool, can't you see that I'm acting like a spoiled child?"

Bai Zhenxi finally regained consciousness after being dazed. He took Chi Li's right hand and placed it over his heart, saying soothingly, "Please don't hate me."

Now it was Chi Li who was knocked unconscious. She smiled drowsily and said, "Hehehe, okay, how could I possibly hate you?"

The two of them held hands and giggled at each other, and an ambiguous atmosphere filled the air.

Xiao Ba really didn't want to burst the sweet bubble between the two, but she felt that she needed to remind Chi Li what she was here for.

"Cough cough..." Xiao Ba coughed twice.

The two of them were immersed in the sweet atmosphere and did not respond. When Xiao Ba wanted to raise his voice, Jiang Yue, who was standing in the distance like a statue, took action.

She felt an itch in her throat as if she had been infected by Xiao Ba, and coughed out a heartbreaking sound: "Cough cough cough cough!"
