Mistakenly recognized as a cousin, thousands of pampered

Tao Jiuxi let Xie Yushu vent her anger to her heart's content. After she calmed down a little, he discussed with her that when they arrived at the next city they stopped at, they would send Pan Sanlang directly to the yamen.

At that time, the local magistrate would sentence him according to the laws on human trafficking and put him in jail. Xie Yushu did not dare to kill anyone, so he had no objection to this.

Tao Jiuxi really didn't want to keep such a person around for a long time, so as to avoid any further trouble.

After Sun came back, Tao Jiuxi let Xie Yushu go to meet her alone. Tao Jiuxi really didn't want to witness the scene of relatives hugging and crying when they reunited, so she chose to avoid it silently.

As for how Xie Yushu wanted to explain to Sun, she could only leave it to her own devices. Tao Jiuxi and others had already given the necessary instructions.

What was unexpected was that Xie Yushu was silent for only one day, and then he became extremely attentive the next day.

She was either busy making snacks or enthusiastically making tea for Tao Jiuxi, Shen Zhiyi and Ji Qingyi, as if she had become a different person.

"Then Li Xiaoyao saw Zhao Linger turned into Nuwa's original form?" Shen Zhiyi asked.

"Yes, Zhao Linger's upper body is human, but her lower body is a snake..."

Tao Jiuxi was telling a story to Shen Zhiyi with great joy, but it was not free. As a couple, they had to be clear about the bill. Tao Jiuxi only charged thirty taels for each story.

At this moment, Ji Qingyi's anxious voice was accompanied by a rapid knock on the door: "Ayi, open the door."

Shen Zhiyi quickly opened the door and saw Ji Qingyi in a hurry, with Xie Yushu following behind from a distance.

"Ayi, I've come up with a new plan for that strategy you mentioned yesterday to lure the enemy in, and I'm here to discuss it with you."

"What do you mean by luring the enemy?" Shen Zhiyi was full of doubts. Yesterday they were clearly discussing which animal would be the most delicious to catch and roast on the barren hill near where they had camped.

Ji Qingyi mouthed, "Idiot." At the same time, he signaled Shen Zhiyi to pay attention behind him.

Shen Zhiyi finally realized what was happening and quickly replied, "I also have an improved plan and was just about to talk to you about it. However, this is a matter of national defense, so we must discuss it carefully."

Ji Qingyi immediately raised his voice and said, "Border defense matters are confidential. Let's go in, lock the door, and discuss quietly."

Even if Xie Yushu wanted to get closer, he had to stop after hearing these words to avoid embarrassing himself.

Ji Qingyi didn't even turn his head, went straight into the house and quickly closed the door.

Then, he looked through the window at Xie Yushu's blurry figure standing there for a long time before leaving, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Qingyi, how did you provoke her?" Shen Zhiyi asked with a frown, his eyes full of confusion.

"Don't talk nonsense. She was grateful to me for hiring a doctor for her, so she made some snacks for me." Ji Qingyi is in his twenties, how could he be a confused person.

Although he could sense Xie Yushu's thoughts, he was extremely disgusted by it in his heart and was determined not to let himself or the people around him think in that direction, as if it were a flood or a beast.

"Then what are you hiding from?"

Shen Zhiyi sat down by himself, but his hands were not idle. He poured a cup of tea and placed it on the seat opposite him.

"She refused to leave after delivering the snacks... She stood in my room for a full quarter of an hour." Ji Qingyi's tone was full of helplessness. After he finished speaking, he sat down opposite Shen Zhiyi, picked up the teacup, and drank it all in one gulp, as if he wanted to swallow down the annoying emotion as well.

The three of them looked at each other and fell silent, speechless for a moment.

No one expected that Xie Yushu would become so proactive so quickly after experiencing such a terrible thing.

Shen Zhiyi couldn't help but find it funny that Ji Qingyi wasn't this nervous even on the battlefield.

But when she thought about how Ji Qingyi had been looking for opportunities to tease her recently, she pretended to be complaining and said, "But you're disturbing us by coming here like this."

"You heartless fellow, why don't you just say that I'm Xier's fiancé."

"No!" Shen Zhiyi refused without hesitation.

"Why can't I help you in an emergency? And it's the truth. I haven't broken off the engagement yet." Ji Qingyi was a little anxious. He was a little scared of being pestered by Xie Yushu.

"Then just say I'm your fiancé, Qingyi. For you, I can even give up my reputation." Shen Zhiyi said, holding Ji Qingyi's hand seriously, as if to show his determination.

Then he added: "Anyway, you can't say my wife is your fiancée."

Seeing this, Tao Jiuxi applauded on the spot: "Ayi, you are really wise!"

The applause was clear and loud, echoing in the room.

Seeing Ji Qingyi was choked and speechless, Shen Zhiyi said to him in a firm tone: "That's it! Qingyi, as long as your thinking doesn't slip, there are always more difficulties than solutions."

Tao Jiuxi smiled awkwardly. Aren’t there more difficulties than solutions right now?

"I'm really impressed by you two, you two enemies. It's already this late and you still have the mind to joke around here. Before arriving at Yulong City, I will come to your place whenever I'm awake and leave when it's time to go to bed!" Ji Qingyi said with a helpless and somewhat amusing look on his face.

"It's up to you."

Shen Zhiyi originally thought that Ji Qingyi was just joking.

But he didn't expect that in the next two days, Ji Qingyi actually did what he said. He came every day, from morning to night.

Xie Yushu was still as attentive as ever, delivering snacks and tea every day without fail.

Every time she came, she saw the three of them gathered together, talking about something she couldn't understand at all.

At the beginning, she would stand by for a while, trying to join in their conversation, but the three of them were chatting so seriously and completely immersed in it that they seemed to have completely forgotten her existence.

Later, she saw Tao Jiuxi's maid Xiaohe standing like this, and felt like another maid.

How could she be willing to do that!

Gradually, Xie Yushu would leave sadly every time after delivering something.

However, every time Xie Yushu came, he would seize the opportunity and try every possible means to talk a few more words with Ji Qingyi.

As for Shen Zhiyi, she didn't dare to provoke him at all, just like a mouse seeing a cat.

As for Tao Jiuxi, she didn't want to pay attention to him from the bottom of her heart, as if Tao Jiuxi owed her something.

When they arrived at Yulong City, Tao Jiuxi found Xie Yushu. She told Xie Yushu in a calm tone to rest assured on the boat, and that someone would take care of their daily life.

At the same time, Tao Jiuxi also asked Xie Yushu to think carefully about her future plans. If she decided where to settle down, he would send someone to send her and her mother there.

Unexpectedly, when Xie Yushu heard this, he lost control of his emotions and broke down on the spot. The resentment in his heart was like a flood that broke through the dam. He started to talk nonsense, and all kinds of unpleasant words came out of his mouth.

Seeing this, Tao Jiuxi turned around and left without saying a word.

Behind him, Xie Yushu's self-deprecating and complaining words echoed continuously in his ears like a devil's voice.

Tao Jiuxi's pace became faster and faster, and he walked quickly towards the direction where Shen Zhiyi and Ji Qingyi were.

Tao Jiuxi thought angrily in his heart: I am not your mother. Can I indulge you every time you go crazy?
