"Mother, I heard from the guards that you were in danger just now." Before the person even arrived, the voice came from afar.

After the man walked into the hall, Yue Liuying finally saw his face clearly.

Her figure was slender, her face fair, her eyebrows slender, and her appearance dignified. This was her first impression of him.

"Mother, are you alright? Your son wasn't able to protect you." There was a tinge of nervousness and lingering fear in his voice. Luckily, that thief didn't do anything, otherwise he wouldn't be able to forgive himself.

"Mu Er, mother is fine. It's all thanks to Miss Yue Liuying's timely help." He pointed to Yue Liuying, who was beside him, indicating that his esteemed guest was here and that he should not be rude.

"Seeing how impatient I am, I actually forgot about the girl." Song Qiran deeply bowed to her with gratitude. "Please accept this one's bow, Lady Yue. I will never forget this kindness."

"Young Master Song is too courteous, I'm just flustered." As he spoke, he stood up to return the greeting.

Song Qirong pulled her back. "You guys call me 'Song Gongzi', 'Lady Yue', but you alienated the relationship between us." Little sister Yue, just like me, you can just call me big brother.

Despite his thick skin in private, he seemed a little unnatural this time. He called the man, "Big Brother," whom they had just met, "this … Is it appropriate?

On the other hand, Song Qiran had a jade flute on his waist. His actions were natural and free, and he said with an expression that said, "Qi Rong is right. It's elder brother's fault. I apologize." With that, he bowed again.

He was immediately amused by his actions. The young miss and the young master of the residence were really … It was easy to get close to people!

Yue Liuying teased him with a mischievous smile, "Brother Song is too courteous."

Seeing the three of them happily chatting, a warm feeling flowed through Madam Song's heart. "You three youngsters should talk properly. I will personally cook and prepare lunch for you. At noon, Liu Ying will stay and have a taste of my cooking skills."

"Sure." His character was always free and easy. Since they were so enthusiastic, it wasn't good for him to refuse them. He might as well stay and eat. Presumably, there wouldn't be many days where they could interact in the future.

At the dining table, Madam Song was busy preparing food for Yue Liuying, telling her to eat more and not to be polite. Looking at the mountain of food in the bowl, she didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She quickly looked at Song Qirong for help, if she continued, the bowl wouldn't be able to take it anymore. Besides, where did she get so much stomach for so much stuff?

Song Qirong understood and stopped Madam Song's hand that was filled with food. She smiled sweetly. "Mother, you should eat first. If you want to eat something, Sister Yue will eat it herself." He pushed Yue Liuying's shoulders and said, "Right, Sister Yue."

"Sister Song is right, Liuying will come by herself."

How could Madam Song not know what they were planning? However, she was somehow happy … It seemed like he had pinched it a little too much.

After lunch, Song Qiran talked about some of the things that happened in Jinhai Country, which aroused the interest of everyone.

"Big brother, you've actually been to so many places! This is too unfair! "Next time, if I have the chance, I would like to go out and have a look. I don't want to spend the whole day holed up in my house, bored to death." Song Qirong put down her chopsticks and pointed to the other side.

"Alright!" Song Qiran agreed readily. "Next time if there's a chance, I'll bring you and Sister Yue. We'll go out for a sightseeing, and the scene will be very beautiful and envious. "How is it?"

Before waiting for Yue Liuying to pour cold water, Song Qirong was already jumping with excitement. "Wonderful, brother, don't go back on your words." He smiled proudly, "It's fine if you lied to me. Just now, you included Sister Yue as well. Mother can be a witness."

Yue Liuying felt helpless. She was someone who wanted to run away. If she was going out with the Young Master or Miss of the Residence, then her head would definitely be kicked by a donkey!

Then he thought that this was just a joke on the table. If he couldn't do it properly, he would forget about it after a while. He no longer intended to refuse them out of hand, lest he disturb everyone's interest.

After the meal, she insisted on leaving, so Madam Song could not force herself to stay. Holding her hand, she said gently, "Liuying, you must remember to come visit us more in the future. How happy are you to see you again?"

"Madam, if you have the chance, you will definitely come and disturb me." But I'm afraid there won't be much of a chance.

"Good boy! "Ran, send Liuying home."

Stunned, she was just about to say, "No …"

"Mother, don't worry. Your son will definitely bring Sister Yue back home safely."

"Young Lord, Sir Lin is here."

"Let him in!"

When Lin Jinyu entered the courtyard, she saw Ling Qiye brewing tea on the stone table. He didn't say anything else and just sat down with a cup of tea next to his mouth. "Hmm. It is so fragrant. It seems I have come at the right time."

"How's it going?" He ignored the lament and went straight to the point.

Putting down the teacup, he waved the ivory white fan in his hand and said, "It's really uninteresting. Talking about proper business as soon as we meet, at least let me calm down a bit."

Eldest Manor Lord Ling disapproved. Looking at the fan in his hand, his voice was clear and cold, "No one reminded you that it's winter now?"

When Lin Jinyu heard this, she waved the fan in her hand even more vigorously. "So what if it's Dong Ri? Who said I couldn't use a fan in the winter?" As for this reminder, you're still the first one. "

Ling Qiye continued brewing the second cup of tea, slowly spitting out four words, "Flavor and elegance."

"Lord Young Lord, I am clearly an elegant person, why should I be a vassal?"

"The tea just now was used to wash the teacups for the first time." He didn't want to argue with him about the fan anymore, so he inadvertently brought up another topic.

"..." Young Master Lin had no choice but to jump up and down on the spot. Didn't you say so earlier? I drank it all. "

"Drink too fast. No chance."

"..." Would the reason need to be even worse? With his martial arts as the Ling Family's Young Lord, he was more than enough to stop a cup of tea.

He was not careful when making friends! He was not careful when making friends!

Thousand Sunsets chuckled on the side. He always wanted to bicker with the young master, but he was always defeated. Young Master Lin's underhanded skills were in no way inferior to others, so why was Sir Lin unable to recognize this iron-like truth?

"Forget it, let's get down to business." Lin Jinyu decided to give up and obediently announced the progress, "We have already found shops in all the major areas of the southern region of the Qing Dynasty, so you can rest assured that we will keep this a secret. We definitely will not let that person know about it in advance. "Heh heh, when the whole country opens its doors for business, he'll definitely be furious."

"We cannot be careless. That person's strength cannot be underestimated." There was no trace of the easy smile on his cold face.

"I understand. After so many years, I still have this little bit of common sense." Lin Jinyu was no longer smiling when she talked about proper business.

However, just as Ling Qiye nodded his head, he returned to his previous infuriating smile. "I heard that the person who helped you this time was one of your concubines. I think her name is' Yue Liuying ', right?"

"What, the playboy is beginning to be interested in my concubine?" Xiao Yan's black eyes narrowed. His tone was a little breathtaking compared to his earlier tone.

"Your concubine?" Lin Jinyu raised her eyebrows proudly, it sounded a little unusual.

"This young master is going out for a while. If you want to sit down, then stay here." Ignoring the inquiring gaze beside him, he stood up and walked away.

"Hai, wait for me."

However, the sight of Villa Owner Ling walking out of the manor caused his face to darken, unable to be ignored.

Seriously...

Damn eyesore!
