C55 (1/2)
”Auntie just said not too long ago, she told us to stay at home. If we go back now, will …”
What Jin Se was worried about was not unreasonable, they kept on going up to the hall, and it made people suspicious.
”I'm just giving something to you, what's wrong with that …” Qi Zhen seemed to be convincing himself that looking at her current state, Jin Se had probably already been planning for a long time, and had not just decided on this either.
”This …” Jin Se was still hesitating, she couldn't possibly brazenly go against Mrs. Xue's intentions, but Qi Zhen didn't care. After all, she was her own daughter, but Jin Se would more or less take it into consideration.
”Are you still talking about loyalty?” ”If you are my good sister, you can come with me.”
Qi Zhen pinched Jin Se fiercely, causing Jin Se to frown in pain, but he still did not make a sound.
”Good sister …” ”Hurry, stop. I'm in so much pain from your pinching.” Jin Se whispered again, ”Then we should at least find a reason, furthermore, you definitely shouldn't go to other people's houses, if there's something that Xue Yuting can come out to take, that would be it.”
”That's what I thought too. Just let him go to the door and get it. We definitely won't go in. We'll just say that we're here to deliver textbooks …”
Qi Zhen's eyes flashed with excitement, looking at the situation, Jin Se had definitely agreed to her words.
”Then we must go and come back quickly. We must not let auntie know.”
It was not easy for Jin Se to refute Qi Zhen, so she could only take the risk, whether it was fierce or lucky, it all depended on luck.
”Mm, don't worry, I definitely won't pull you into the water.” Qi Zhen vigilantly blinked his eyes at Jin Se.
Seeing that everyone had eaten enough, Mrs. Xue got up, ”Why don't we go back?”
”It's getting late, I think.”
”Mother …” Qi Zhen also stood up with a giggle and pulled Mrs. Xue's arm as if they were acting coquettishly.
”I want to buy a box of rouge, which is on the street before. Otherwise, go back with elder sister first, and I will go along with you to buy rouge. Quickly go home.”
Qi Xuan glared at Qi Zhen, ”You little girl, what kind of scheme are you thinking of? Elder sister, I still have rouge. Why don't you use mine first? ”
When Jin Se saw this, he was afraid that she would not be able to stay away from him. She also did not want to get involved, so she only lowered her head, only to be suddenly asked by the Mrs. Xue, ”Shh, are you going to buy rouge from the Third Elder Sister?”
Jin Se was shocked, she could not hide, of course she could not say no at this time, if not, she would lose face for Qi Zhen, thus she immediately laughed and said, ”That's right, Third Sister asked me to go with her, I also want to buy two boxes.”
Hearing that Jin Se had even said that, the Mrs. Xue was naturally able to trust him.
”Then your Big Sister and I will leave first.” After Mrs. Xue finished, he got on the carriage with Qi Xuan.
Jin Se and Qi Zhen were at the back, watching as the carriage drove further and further away. Jin Se frowned, ”Third Elder Sister, this time you better not screw me over. ”Otherwise, I don't know how to behave in front of my aunt.”
Qi Zhen quickly replied, ”Don't worry, of course I won't hurt you, I'm just going to give you something.”
Qi Zhen then pulled on Jin Se's arm affectionately, ”Let me tell you, I still have two boxes of good perfume over there. In a while, ask Li Luo to come to my house and get the ointment. It's my favorite ointment, after smearing it on your hands, the smell will last for a very long time.”
This is obviously an undisguised bribe, Jin Se hurriedly shook his head, ”There's no need for this … Elder sister, as long as you don't pull me into the water, I don't need the balm. ”
Qi Zhen laughed, and coincidentally, she was also a bit unwilling, so she said, ”How about … Go to my room and get a comb. I haven't used that comb yet, but it's carved out of the old master's blade. It's especially beautiful. ”
After failing to send the ointment and changing to a comb, Jin Se laughed involuntarily. It was probably just that Qi Zhen felt very bad, in order to let her feel at ease, she could only say, ”Then I'll have someone go get it later.”
The two of them slowly walked along the lake. The distance from here to the memorial hall wasn't too far, only around forty minutes' worth of walking time.
”Did you greet Xue Yuting in advance?” As Jin Se thought about it, he realized that it was best not to give her any token of love … Then how awkward it was for her to be there.
