Mistakenly recognized as a cousin, thousands of pampered

Jiang Shun walked quickly in front to lead the way.

Tao Jiuxi followed Shen Zhiyi closely. She had made up her mind when she came that she must ask Shen Zhiyi for help.

anyway!

Before reaching the greenhouse, Shen Zhiyi suddenly stopped without any warning.

He leaned slightly to the side, his expression returning to the indifferent and distant look he had just had at the polo match. "Why are you crying like this? Who bullied you?"

Upon hearing this, Tao Jiuxi looked around and, after making sure that no one was around, he shouted to Jiang Shun, "Jiang Shun, please keep an eye on it for me and don't let anyone come over."

"Yes, cousin." Jiang Shun agreed without hesitation.

However, after agreeing, he realized that he could not let his cousin order him around at will, but had to see what his master wanted.

He immediately turned his gaze to Shen Zhiyi, and seeing that Shen Zhiyi did not object, he slowly stepped back a few steps and stood guard.

"You use my people very well." Shen Zhiyi narrowed his eyes slightly, with a hint of dissatisfaction in his tone.

"If you don't like it, I'll change it next time. But I came to you because I really have something to ask for." Tao Jiuxi's eyes were full of eagerness.

"I know that if you hadn't had something to say to me, you would have said that we would cut off all ties and never have any contact with each other again." The corners of Shen Zhiyi's mouth rose slightly, revealing a sarcastic smile.

After hearing this, Tao Jiuxi felt guilty. She lowered her head and did not dare to look into Shen Zhiyi's eyes.

Shen Zhiyi frowned slightly and stared at Tao Jiuxi closely.

"Are you still telling me what you are asking for?"

"Say, I'll say."

Tao Jiuxi lowered his voice and recounted the story of Zhong Yunxi.

But Shen Zhiyi looked indifferent after hearing this: "What does this have to do with me?"

"I know this has nothing to do with you, but, but, only you can help me..."

"Why should I help you?" Shen Zhiyi's tone was still cold, and there was no emotion on his face.

Tao Jiuxi also felt that she was unreasonable, but at this moment Shen Zhiyi was her only lifeline.

Maybe Xie Jinghuan could help her find a doctor, but if Zhong Yunxi's stepmother knew about it, what could Xie Jinghuan do?

Right now, only Shen Zhiyi can take control of the situation.

She gritted her teeth and decided to lose her face: "In the past, you always obeyed me..."

But her voice became smaller and smaller, and she had no confidence at all.

"You also know that was in the past. Now, do you think I will still let you control me like before?" Shen Zhiyi had a hint of sarcasm in his eyes.

Tao Jiuxi pretended not to see it.

"Can you do it left or right again?" Tao Jiuxi stretched out a hand and gestured.

Shen Zhiyi felt helpless and ridiculous.

"You haven't changed at all."

"I don't want to owe anyone a favor. Besides, no one else can do anything about this except you." Tao Jiuxi just wanted to dig a hole in the ground, or a dog hole would be fine at this moment.

"So you're willing to owe me a favor for nothing?"

"I don't want to owe favors to outsiders, so I can only come to you for help. And you are the only one who can help me with this matter. Can you help me again?"

Tao Jiuxi stared at Shen Zhiyi closely, his eyes full of anticipation.

She had already made up her mind at this moment, with only one thought in her mind, which was to get Shen Zhiyi's help.

In her opinion, she didn't care whether she was being sycophantic or taking advantage of others to curry favor. Saving Zhong Yunxi's life was much more important than her dignity.

"You won't always be so successful with me."

"What about this time?"

She was betting that Shen Zhiyi's feelings for her had not changed.

Shen Zhiyi sighed, he was defeated. He knew that Tao Jiuxi changed his attitude because he had something to ask for.

But seeing how Tao Jiuxi was trying so hard to please him, he really couldn't bear to refuse.

He really couldn't imagine how out of control he would be if Tao Jiuxi tried to please others like this.

"What do you want me to do?" Shen Zhiyi's tone was filled with helplessness.

"Can you help me find a good doctor first?"

"Jiang Shun, send someone to call for Dr. Sun, who is accompanying us today."

Because this polo match was hosted by the eldest princess, there was a possibility that someone might get injured accidentally on the polo field, so large polo matches usually bring doctors.

"Yes, I'll do it right away." Jiang Shun took the order and retreated.

"If there's nothing else, I'll go back." Shen Zhiyi looked at the person in front of him whom he had been thinking about day and night. He wanted to stay a little longer, but when he thought of what Tao Jiuxi had said in the greenhouse before, his anger increased a little.

Just as I turned around to leave, I heard Tao Jiuxi speak behind me.

"Are you in such a hurry? Do you want to go back and drink the tea that Song Wantang made for you?"

Shen Zhiyi just felt that this heartless person had just helped her and hadn't even left yet, but she was already slandering her.

He immediately turned around and tapped Tao Jiuxi on the forehead with his finger.

"Tao Jiuxi, I'm really curious about what's going on in your mind." Shen Zhiyi's eyes were full of helplessness.

Who can be like her? She just told you that she would never have any contact with you again, and then turned around and asked you for something, and she went straight into your arms without asking any questions.

He had just agreed to her request, but in the blink of an eye she started slandering him.

But Tao Jiuxi answered seriously at this moment: "When I left your mansion, I missed you, but as time went by, I missed you less. Right now, I'm thinking about where my tea-making skills are lacking."

"Have you ever thought about me?"

"that's not important."

"That's the most important thing."

"I think the most important thing right now is, how is my tea not as good as others'?"

Seeing that she was about to bring up the past again, Shen Zhiyi was about to reach out and tap her head again when Tao Jiuxi grabbed his arm and said, "There's a private room in the flower room. Come and have a taste and see whose tea it is."

After Tao Jiuxi finished speaking, he dragged Shen Zhiyi into the greenhouse.

Shen Zhiyi let her pull him, thinking to himself that perhaps it was a mistake to send her to Xie's house.

I should find some time to have a good chat with her.

Tao Jiuxi searched along the compartments of the greenhouse and finally found Zhong Yunxi in one of them.

"Miss Zhong, sorry for the wait."

Zhong Yunxi originally thought that Tao Jiuxi would bring a doctor, but she was surprised to see that the person being dragged was Shen Zhiyi.

She immediately bowed properly, her voice trembling slightly as she said, "Greetings...Greetings to Duke Shen."

Shen Zhiyi just glanced at her lightly, remained silent, and then walked straight to the tea table in the elegant room not far away and sat down leisurely.

"Come on, Miss Zhong, let's go sit down and talk." Tao Jiuxi sat down next to Shen Zhiyi naturally, and then asked Zhong Yunxi to sit opposite him.

Zhong Yunxi couldn't help feeling a little nervous when she saw Shen Zhiyi.

She had long heard of Duke Shen's reputation for being stern and murderous, and now facing him, she felt the atmosphere was oppressive.

Tao Jiuxi grabbed some tea leaves from the teapot and put them into the pot. Then he picked up the teapot that was heating on the stove, added some hot water to it, and poured a cup of tea directly for Shen Zhiyi, saying respectfully, "Try it."

"Try it?" Shen Zhiyi asked doubtfully.

Tao Jiuxi often went to the study to make tea for him in the past. She knew that the first water used in making tea was used to wash the tea leaves, but at this moment she poured it directly to him.

"Why don't you drink it? Is my tea not as delicious as others'?"

"I didn't drink her tea!"
