Chapter 216: An Odd Coincidence 6
When the carriage arrived at Heir Pei’s garden, Qi Qingyao got off the vehicle. She cupped one hand in the fist of the other, held both to her chest, and bowed to the guards at the entrance in greeting.
“Qi Qingyao, here to visit Heir Pei.”
A guard went to report her arrival immediately. After a while, Li Qing walked out. Upon sight of Qi Qingyao, he was very pleased. He said, “Miss Qi, come in, come in.”
Li Qing noticed that the two men behind Qi Qingyao were still wearing masks. He could not see their faces. The Horse-face was holding a food box, while the Ox-head was holding two children in his arms. Another child was rubbing his eyes. Qi Qingyao held his hand as they passed the threshold.
Qi Qingyao was holding Xiaobao’s hand as she asked Li Qing, “Is your master at home?”
Li Qing inclined his head slightly. “He’s waiting for you.”
Qi Qingyao, “…”
He knew that she would come and was waiting for them?
Jiang Yeqian held Dabao and Erniu, who were both sleeping soundly, in his arms. He curled his lip under the mask. “It seems like he’s head over heels for you.”
Qi Qingyao said carelessly, “Do you even know how to use idioms, you illiterate?”
Jiang Yeqian, “Hmph!”
Xiaobao tilted his head, in doubt. He asked with his cheeks puffed out, “Uncle, what does “head over heels for you” mean?”
Qi Qingyao gave Jiang Yeqian a disdainful look.
Jiang Yeqian explained hurriedly, “It means that you have a crush on someone…”
“What does ‘have a crush’ mean?” Xiaobao asked, hungry for knowledge.
Jiang Yeqian coughed softly. He was a little embarrassed by the questions, so his voice was muffled when he answered, “It means that you like someone secretly and didn’t tell anyone else.”
“Oh~” Xiaobao nodded, still a little confused.
Li Qing listened to the child’s innocent words from the side and found them interesting.
Before they arrived at the hall, Li Qing said, “Miss Qi, the Heir is inside. Please enter.”
As the weather was cold, the door was closed. Qi Qingyao was just about to push the doors open and enter when Jiang Yeqian told her calmly that he would take the kids to the side hall or a guest room. Qi Qingyao thought that it was a good suggestion.
Li Qing led Jiang Yeqian to the side hall. Xiaobao, the sensible and obedient child, said that he would not disrupt the conversation between adults, and that he would follow Uncle to the side hall and stay together with Dabao and Erniu.
Si Jin shook his head and asked, “How about me?”
Jiang Yeqian said decisively, “You’ll go inside to meet the Heir together with her.” Rather than “meet”, it was more like “monitor”.
Si Jin followed behind Qi Qingyao obediently, carrying the food box like a demure wife.
Qi Qingyao knocked on the door first and waited till someone inside called them to enter.
Only then did she push the door in and enter.
She did not see clearly who was in the room after she entered but bowed in greeting nonetheless.
“Happy new year, Heir.”
“Sit down.” Heir Pei looked much better after he rested for one month. He could now leave the Plum Garden and meet guests in the hall. Heir Pei had expected Qi Qingyao to come, but he did not expect her to visit on the second day of the New Year. It seemed that the woman saw him as a friend, or rather, as someone important.
Qi Qingyao came here today to make a friend of the Heir, so she remained polite.
When she looked up, she saw a familiar person sitting on the chair on the left side. The man had a white cat in his arms.
It was Lu Yan, the heir of the Senluo Chamber of Commerce!
That lunatic who kept insisting to her that his cat was adulterous!
Qi Qingyao pursed her lips. “Oh, I didn’t realize that you had another guest here. I’ll wait outside first, then.”
“There’s no need. Sit down over here,” Heir Pei said politely. “This guest is going to leave soon, anyway.”
Hearing that, Qi Qingyao had Si Jin close the doors, then picked a chair at the right side to sit down on.
She did not look at Lu Yan at all.
