Lu Li was choked by Qiao Liangjin's words. He smiled and muttered, ”Isn't this all for your own good …” I was afraid you might be blinded. ”
By now, Qiao Liangjin had already heard everything and heard Lu Li's words. She turned around and sneered, ”Do you believe that I will tell your master about your words?”
Lu Li immediately shut up. He had been following Qiao Liangjin for the past few days, so he was well aware of her character and character.
When they arrived at the entrance of the chrysanthemum restaurant, An Ge happened to see off the last customer. Seeing three people, he walked up to them in surprise. ”When did you leave? Why didn't I notice?”
Qiao Liangjin pointed to the window on the second floor and blinked. She helped Bai Wuyu into the house and turned to Lu Li, who was about to enter, and said, ”Xin Ting shouldn't be here. Wait for us at the door for a while, I'll send Bai Wufei upstairs later.”
Lu Li had no choice but to withdraw his leg that had just stepped into the hall and stand in the darkness.
Qiao Liangjin supported Bai Wu's pale face as they walked towards the stairs. An Ge then noticed that Bai Wu's expression was extremely ugly. He asked in surprise, ”What's going on?”
Bai Wu waved his hand and forced a smile, saying softly, ”No problem.”
The door to the second floor opened with a ”Hua La” sound. A red figure flashed and went downstairs. She pushed Qiao Liangjin aside and glared at him viciously.
The little fox, Yuesheng, who was obediently lying on Bai Wu's body, seemed to be irritated by Hong Chen's actions. With a fox fire on his little claw, he grabbed onto Hong Chen's neck. Hong Chen was caught off guard and was given a good scratch.
”Yu Sheng!”
”Red Dust!”
Qiao Liangjin and Bai Wuyi called for a person and a fox to stop simultaneously.
Red Dust raised his hand and gently caressed the deep wound on his neck. The claw with fox fire still had some power, but from Qiao Liangjin's perspective, that wound didn't seem to be bleeding at all.
Qiao Liangjin walked up a few steps and held the little fox in her arms. She took out a small bottle of ointment from her sleeve and threw it to Hong Chen. Hong Chen grabbed the bottle and asked with a cold smile, ”What is this?”
”This is medicine ointment, you should apply it. It's still more or less useful. After all, people like you who rely on your appearance still value your appearance a lot.” Qiao Liangjin was originally unhappy with the hostility in the mortal world. Unknowingly, her words also carried thorns in them.
Just as Hong Chen was about to retort, she was pulled back by Bai Wu Chen. ”Hong Chen, help me back.”
Qiao Liangjin watched Bai Wuchen and the rest disappear up the stairs before turning around with a sigh and said to An Ge, ”If you want to see a doctor tomorrow, you can buy all the precious herbs you need. If you don't have enough silver taels, just tell me. You should get an early rest as well.
An Ge nodded and sent Qiao Liangjin out the door, then closed the shop.
Looking at the extinguished candles in the hall, Qiao Liangjin suddenly sighed. Looking at Lu Li who had been waiting for her, she waved her hand and said, ”Let's go. We can't find Xin Ting over there. The Prime Minister's residence must be looking for her now.”
Carrying Qiao Xinting on her back, Lu Li followed Qiao Lianjin to the Residence of Prime Minister.
Halfway there, Lu Li suddenly said, ”Princess, I still think it's better not to tell that Miss Qiao was kidnapped.”
”Why?”
”Shame on her reputation. In the future, she will be in a difficult position.” Lu Li explained.
Qiao Liangjin was silent for a moment before she smiled, ”That's true, you're right. How about this: I'll bring her back to my Flowing Gold Flower Pavilion later. You go to Peace Heart Garden and tell my Third Madame that she can be at ease. Xin Ting will be staying here tonight.”
”Yes.”
As she brought Qiao Xinting back to the Flowergolden Pavilion, the three maids who were dozing off frantically supported her onto the beauty bed. Ruo Lan looked at Qiao Xinting, whose face was covered with dried tears, and asked, ”Third Madam had An Qing come over to check on the Fifth Miss just now.”
Qiao Liangjin sat quietly at the side, holding an amethyst bracelet in her hand. Looking at the unconscious Qiao Xinting, a faint sense of displeasure rose in her heart.
After a while, Lu Li knocked on the door and said, ”Princess, you have told the Third Madam that you will be here soon.”
Qiao Liangjin acknowledged and fell silent.
After saying that, Lu Li quietly left.
Zi Yan brought a basin of water and washed the handkerchief. She gently wiped Qiao Xinting's face. Her originally innocent and cute face gradually became clean. However, there was a red and swollen palm print on the left side of her face.
When Zi Yan saw the palm print, she said in surprise, ”Ah, who hit him? How could she be so ruthless?”
The corner of Qiao Liangjin's mouth twitched. ”I broke his bones with my bare feet.”
