Secondly, Yukong was the emperor's man after all. She had to remain vigilant. If anything happened in the future, she hoped that he would take into account some of her 'master-disciple relationship'.

It was rare for Mu Shuwen, who was sitting obediently by the side and reading a novel, to reply, ”Miss, Mister Ya Xiong went out to find you.”

”Go out and find me?” Lu JinNian felt a little guilty. Ever since Yuxiong was appointed by the emperor, he had basically followed her every step of the way. This made her often panic, wondering if he had become the emperor's main target.

However, if she really had some private matters, Ye Xiong didn't insist on following her. Therefore, it was just an illusion. Ye Xiong was just following the emperor's orders to make a pair of 'eyes', trying his best to not miss out on any details.

Today, she forgot to find a reason to rush out of the house and went to Xiao Su's residence. Ye Xiong wouldn't be able to find her, but it was strange that he was still outside.

”Has Master come back yet?”

”Nope.”

Lu JinNian thought for a moment and understood. She was sure that Yinxiong had gone out to look for her at the beginning, but she still hadn't returned. She probably went to the palace to report to the emperor.

He didn't ask any more and went to take a bath after Yi Yan had finished preparing the bath water.

By the time Lu JinNian had washed and changed into a fresh set of clothes, Yuxiong had already returned. He still wore that same cold expression on his face as he sat by the table drinking ginger soup.

Lu JinNian rubbed his nose. Originally, she didn't need to go out in this kind of weather. She walked over to the table and squatted down by the corner, looking pitifully at Ya Xiong, ”Master, you've worked hard.”

Sui Xiong, ”...”

After putting down the bowl, Yukong glanced at her coldly, ”You look to be in a much better mood. Where did you go?”

Lu JinNian smirked, ”Master can even tell that disciple is not in a good mood? Thank you for your concern, Master. ”

Perhaps when Lu JinNian was in public, he would always wear a 101th smiley face, making others unable to tell what she was thinking or planning. However, in front of familiar and trustworthy people, he would not intentionally hide his emotions.

Ye Xiong put on a cold face, not because he couldn't understand other people's emotions, nor because he didn't know how to integrate into the environment, but because he couldn't be bothered with other people's emotions. Lu JinNian was the most relaxed in the yard, she couldn't hide her feelings, how could Ye Xiong not know whether she was happy or not?

Ye Xiong glanced at her. The meaning was clear, do you want to say it or not?

As for this, your disciple is in a bad mood, so I went out to take a stroll. It was raining heavily, and after soaking in the rain, I was able to open up one of your disciple's meridians and connect to the peak.

The corner of Sui Xiong's mouth twitched. He didn't want to know what Lu Jinsheng did, he wanted to 'see' the movements of the court and officials for the emperor. Lu JinNian had his own secrets, his own affairs … He didn't need to know about the private matters related to his little girl's family, but …

Lu JinNian was truly too worrisome. Her way of doing things was completely on the side of action, and she didn't even know what her closest maid was up to. She could only stay at home and worry about what would happen if there was an accident!
