C28 Behind the Scenes

Not long after, Lee Deyang arrived at the Xi family. He looked around like a thief to see if the people from the Xi family were there. Although it didn't matter, he was still a person with a reputation. In the future, he would have to show off in front of others. He couldn't let them catch him.

Seeing that there was indeed no one in the Xi family, Lee Deyang felt a little relieved. He walked quietly up the stairs to the second floor, still looking up and down the corridor. Seeing that everything was quiet, he finally walked to Xi Qingyang's room.

"Knock, knock, knock." Lee Deyang knocked on the door a few times. Suddenly, the door opened by itself. Lee Deyang looked and saw that the door was ajar.

"It seems that she can't wait to see me." Lee Deyang thought about it and felt an itch in his heart. His hands were also itchy. He rubbed his hands together like a hooligan, as if he wanted to do something.

"My baby, I missed you so much." When Lee Deyang saw Xi Qingyang standing in front of the window, he secretly ran over and hugged her from behind.

"Darling, you can't wait to see me? You didn't even book a hotel and came to your house. Are you not afraid of being seen by others? Or do you really want to find something exciting to play with?" As he spoke, he kissed Xi Qingyang on the mouth and wrapped his arm around Xi Qingyang's waist. With a strong push, he pushed Xi Qingyang onto the bed by the window.

Xi Qingyang was pressed down on the bed by Lee Deyang and was being intimate with him. He did not expect Xi Qingyang to not resist. Lee Deyang really thought that this was why Xi Qingyang called him over. Just as Lee Deyang was about to unbutton Xi Qingyang's shirt, Xi Qingyang grabbed his hand.

"What's wrong, darling? Why aren't you interested today?" Lee Deyang wondered if there was something wrong with him today.

"What are you thinking? Did I say I wanted to see you today for this? How could I have brought you here today?" Xi Qingyang raised her head and scolded Lee Deyang.

Lee Deyang did not argue. The girl in front of him was the daughter of the Xi family, and she was his iron rice bowl. How could he hurt his iron rice bowl? He looked at the money falling from the sky and did not pick it up.

"Oh, then I should leave. I don't want others to gossip and insult your young lady's reputation. After all, you are going to marry that Overlord Gu Zhongtian." After saying that, he picked up the clothes he had just taken off and walked towards the door.

Hearing Gu Zhongtian's name, Xi Qingyang's anger immediately dissipated.

"That's right, I'm about to become Madam Gu. How can I casually lose my temper with a servant?"

Lee Deyang's words were exactly what Xi Qingyang wanted. Perhaps it was because Lee Deyang's mouth had coaxed Xi Qingyang, who had been lonely for a long time, into his hands. But who would take this kind of secret relationship seriously? After all, a man wanted a beauty and money, and a woman wanted a word of pleasure, not to mention a woman as despicable as Xi Qingyang. Since they were in a relationship, so what if the two of them were sneaky?

Xi Qingyang twisted her slender waist and grabbed Lee Deyang's hand seductively. Lee Deyang had already expected Xi Qingyang to pull him back, so he obediently followed her back to the bed.

In order to please Lee Deyang and work for her, Xi Qingyang took the initiative to give him a coquettish kiss. The kiss left a red lipstick mark on Lee Deyang's lips, making him docile and obedient.

"Tell me what it is that you want me to do, my dear, and I will do my best and serve you faithfully." Lee Deyang made a hand gesture to Xi Qingyang, as if he was treating her as his noble master.

"Hahahaha." Xi Qingyang was amused by Lee Deyang's actions. She gently used her red nail polish to brush across Lee Deyang's face, causing him to feel numb.

"Well, I called you here today on business, not to entertain you, and besides, I don't want anyone else to know of our present relationship, which would be bad for both of us and would affect our common interests. Don't you think so?" Xi Qingyang looked at Lee Deyang seductively.

"Yes, yes, yes." Although Lee Deyang had just woken up from his excitement and was a little depressed that he didn't get the beauty he wanted, he still agreed to Xi Qingyang's request repeatedly.

"Come on, honey, what do you want from me today? Money is the other thing to me, and don't tell me it's business unless it's about money." Lee Deyang's tone was slightly disdainful.

"Don't worry, I know you. You know me too. I naturally love money. Money is such a beautiful thing. I called you here today to tell you about the business we are going to do. Although we are talking about foreign trade, you know it well. We don't care about the money. We are going to do a big business. "

Hearing this, Lee Deyang quickly stood up from the edge of the bed and chased after Xi Qingyang, his eyes filled with desire.

"What kind of business?"

"This is a secret of the Xi family, and if I tell you now, you're going to be in the same boat as us, and if anyone else finds out, you're going to die just as badly as we did. We want to cooperate with foreigners and trade for gunpowder. Right now, those in the black market are all steadily earning money." Xi Qingyang stared at Lee Deyang as if she was examining something.

"My little ancestor, look at me. I've followed you for so many years. Have I ever done anything wrong to you? Of course I know what to do. However, this gunpowder business is really a bit risky. Although that Never-ending Castle became so powerful in the past because of the black market, they couldn't help but suffer a lot of setbacks at the beginning. For the first time, we can't help but be a little worried." Lee Deyang looked at Xi Qingyang without avoiding her gaze. He was not afraid of being seen through by her at all.

Seeing that Lee Deyang was so considerate of them, Xi Qingyang thought about how Lee Deyang had indeed worked hard for her all these years and doted on her so much. She felt relieved and wanted to leave the matter to Lee Deyang.

"Alright, I believe in you. Right now, I have a very important mission for you to complete. Although we've already contacted the foreign traders. But after all, this is the first time we've worked with them, and we don't know anything about them or their past operations. So this time we want you to take a sum of money with you to get to know each other, look at the goods, and bring back some of the goods you've bought." Xi Qingyang tilted her head and stared at Lee Deyang from the corner of her eye.

How could Lee Deyang stand such a gaze? He immediately agreed. When he heard that there was money to be made, he couldn't help but ask when Xi Qingyang was leaving.

Seeing that Lee Deyang was so interested in money, he felt more at ease with him.

Xi Wanyi was still living in the Never-ending Castle. When Yang Xiaoqing saw that Shui Yunqing had returned safe and sound, he felt as if he had regained what he had lost. Every day, he would take care of Shui Yunqing, but Shui Yunqing was different. Although he thought about how good Yang Xiaoqing was, he still thought more about Xi Wanyi in his heart.

Xi Wanyi and Yang Xiaoqing and Shui Yunqing were eating at the dining table as usual.

"Yes, yes. The dishes today are even better than before. The combination of meat and vegetables is just right, making people hungry. Little Qing, your cooking skills are getting better and better. It seems that I won't be able to leave your dishes in the future." Shui Yunqing ate the dishes cooked by Yang Xiaoqing and praised him endlessly.

Although Shui Yunqing had only praised Yang Xiaoqing's craftsmanship, Yang Xiaoqing seemed to feel that Shui Yunqing could not leave him. His heart was filled with honey. And of course there was a smile, with dimples and teeth as white as salt.

Shui Yunqing just happened to raise his head and see Yang Xiaoqing. He immediately felt that Yang Xiaoqing was actually quite pretty when he looked at it carefully. Although it couldn't be compared to Xi Wanyi, it still had its own flavor.

Xi Wanyi saw all of this. In fact, she had always known that Shui Yunqing liked her, but in the past, she had hated Hao Zhongtian, and now that she had a daughter, Hao Tianwan, with Hao Zhongtian, she naturally could not let go. She knew that Shui Yunqing had treated her so well, but she had nothing to repay him with, so she felt a little apologetic.

However, it was different now. Yang Xiaoqing was her best friend and also a treasure in her heart. Anyone with a discerning eye could see that Yang Xiaoqing liked Shui Yunqing a lot, and since that was the case, it was also a good thing that Xi Wanyi had given her treasure to Shui Yunqing.

As for that idiot Shui Yunqing, he only thought of his beloved Xi Wanyi. Actually, Xi Wanyi could also see that under Yang Xiaoqing's efforts, Shui Yunqing had slowly developed a good impression of her, but she just didn't know.

"That's right, that's right. Our Xiaoqing's cooking skills are extraordinary, unlike me, whose cooking tastes terrible." Xi Wanyi took this opportunity to raise Yang Xiaoqing and belittle herself. This was obviously to make Shui Yunqing consider changing his mind.

"No, no, Wanyi is talented and intelligent, it's just that she doesn't have time to learn. If you want to learn, you must not be any worse than Little Qing." Shui Yunqing looked like a fool.

"That's right, that's right." Yang Xiaoqing also echoed.

Helpless, Xi Wanyi continued to eat.

"Come, Wanyi, eat a piece of fish. I remember that you love to eat fish the most." Shui Yunqing looked at Xi Wanyi as if he had no appetite.

Shui Yunqing saw the slight expression on Yang Xiaoqing's face from the corner of his eye. In order to avoid awkwardness, he also took the opportunity to give Yang Xiaoqing a piece, which made Yang Xiaoqing very happy.

Just as Yang Xiaoqing was about to take a bite of the fish in the bowl, Xi Wanyi suddenly put down her bowl and chopsticks and quickly ran towards the bathroom. Yang Xiaoqing and Shui Yunqing subconsciously looked at the door.

"No one. What's wrong with Wanyi? I'll go see her." After Yang Xiaoqing finished speaking, she left the table and ran after Xi Wanyi.

Before he even reached the bathroom door, he heard Xi Wanyi continuously vomiting, and Yang Xiaoqing hurriedly rushed in.

"Wanyi, what's wrong with you? Did you eat something wrong? Could it be that I didn't clean the food I made, but Yunqing and I are fine." Afraid that he would cause Xi Wanyi to become like this, Yang Xiaoqing could not help but apologize. She kept patting Xi Wanyi's back.

Finally, Xi Wanyi finished vomiting everything in her stomach and stopped.

"Rinse your mouth with water." At some point, Yang Xiaoqing ran out and brought a cup of water for Xi Wanyi to drink.
