Chapter 194 I am thin-skinned
Qiulai Inn.
Jiang Huai sat in Fu Qi's guest room, but Fu Qi always looked at him with hesitant eyes and not as enthusiastic as before, and it seemed that their relationship became much more distant.
His eyes were a little dim, probably because Lin Jiaojiao had told them what happened in the plum forest today.
Fu Qi didn't expect that he would come to him suddenly, but he was not ready to see him.
He was sitting there uncomfortably, not knowing what Brother Huai wanted to talk to him about. Was he here to tell him that he also liked Sister Jiaojiao?
"Xiaoqiu, Lin Jiaojiao has already told you what happened today."
He raised his eyes and shook his head as soon as he heard it: "No, Sister Jiaojiao didn't tell me anything. She went to rest after returning from the mountain..."
Before Lin Jiaojiao left, she told them not to tell anyone else about Jiang Huai's affairs as she didn't want anyone else to know.
Fu Qi couldn't continue explaining because the person in front of him had an expression of understanding, and he really couldn't lie.
Jiang Huai listened to his self-deceptive explanation and sighed inwardly. He didn't expect that the relationship between husband and wife was so good and they were honest with each other about everything.
"Xiao Qi, I have no other intention in coming here today. There is nothing going on between Lin Jiaojiao and me. Don't be afraid."
When Fu Qi heard his explanation, she felt ashamed. What happened to him? He actually regarded Brother Huai as a love rival. If Sister Jiaojiao hadn't appeared there to save him, he might have had an accident.
Not only did he not care whether he was injured or not, but he also acted so petty. He looked at the gloves he had not taken off since he entered the room. He immediately stood up, walked to the luggage, took out the ointment from it and took it over.
"Brother Huai, is your hand injured? I'm sorry, Xiaoqiu was narrow-minded just now. Sister Jiaojiao did tell me when she came back. Don't blame her."
Jiang Huai shook his head slightly to indicate that it was okay. "Xiao Qi, no need. I have already applied the medicine at home."
He had no choice but to take the ointment and put it on his desk. "This ointment is very useful. Brother Huai, take it home and apply it. It is very effective and will not leave scars."
Jiang Huai pushed the medicine bottle back in front of him. He was relieved that the relationship had eased back to normal, and smiled and refused.
"This is a good thing, Xiaoqiu, keep it for yourself. Brother's hand is fine, it will be fine in a few days."
When he saw him push it back, he quickly stopped him with his hand: "Brother Huai, just take it. I have a lot more. They were all given by Sister Jiaojiao..."
Damn, how could he have said that.
Because they were afraid that someone might do something wrong, they agreed not to reveal to outsiders that anything they obtained from Lin Jiaojiao was given by her.
Jiang Huai thought he was still bothered by what happened today, and fearing that the atmosphere would become awkward again, he asked, "Xiao Qi, I came here tonight to ask you, do you know that Lin Jiaojiao knows the Third Prince?"
Seeing his serious expression, Fu Qi thought he had misunderstood their relationship, so she told him about her encounter with the Third Prince on the way back from Zhouzhou.
"Brother Huai, you also know what kind of person the Third Prince is. He played a trick on Sister Jiaojiao last time, so he will probably play a trick on her again this time. The Third Prince is really too abominable! Why doesn't the Queen take good care of him and let him..."
"Xiao Qi! Royal affairs are not something you and I can discuss in private. If someone with ulterior motives hears it, you can imagine the consequences. Forget about it in front of me this time, but don't do it again next time."
Fu Qi reacted after hearing his reminder and quickly covered his mouth. He found that since being with her, he had become a lot bolder and he no longer had to be restrained in what he did or said, feeling much more comfortable.
Jiang Huai listened to him and thought that maybe it was just a coincidence.
The two chatted for a while, and Jiang Huai saw that it was getting late, so he pulled Fu Qi close to his ear and gave him careful instructions.
"Xiao Qi, the world has become increasingly complicated recently. I warn Lin Jiaojiao to stay away from the Third Prince. He is not as simple as he appears to be. Don't let him drag you into this mess."
...
Lin Jiaojiao was standing alone on the eaves of the second floor. She looked speechlessly at the person on the third floor window sill opposite her, holding a wine glass and raising his eyebrows at her with a smile.
Thinking of the scenery he saw when he flew back just now, she seriously suspected that he had an exhibitionist fetish.
The moment he flew up, she could see his two white legs clearly, so she immediately remembered that he had put on this bathrobe after getting out of the bathtub, so he was now in a vacuum state...
He is flying around outside in a bathrobe. Isn't he afraid of being seen by people below?
She used to be narcissistic and thought he was teasing her, but he really didn't mind showing her his body. Maybe he fell in love with her. After all, there is no man in this world who doesn't care about his body.
After this incident, it seems that he really doesn’t mind others looking at his body at all, maybe he even enjoys it!
Damn it! If I had known I wouldn't have watched it, and he got so much fun for nothing.
So how does she get down now?
Now that the street was getting more crowded, she carefully moved her feet back a step to avoid being seen standing there by the people below.
If you don’t know, you might think she is trying to avoid being caught cheating.
She looked up again, but unfortunately he was no longer on the windowsill. The more she looked at the empty windowsill, the more resentful she felt. When her legs became numb from standing and no one came to pick her up, she knew that she could only rely on herself.
She turned and walked towards the wall, holding on to it with both hands as she moved towards the nearest window.
However, the closer they got, the more intense the sound became. This was the first time she was forced to eavesdrop. Her face flushed as she listened to the obscene words inside. She raised her hand to knock on the window but then put it down again.
Forget it, God will strike you down if you disturb someone’s good time. She decided to wait until the person was done before going in.
Half an hour later.
She was sitting against the wall, feeling hopeless. She had not expected the big sister inside to play so wildly, which caused her extreme discomfort physically and mentally.
Finally, she heard the noise inside gradually becoming smaller. She listened quietly for a while until she heard the sound of a door closing. She slowly stood up and saw that there was still light in the window. She raised her hand and knocked on the window.
The young waiter inside was lying on the bed waiting for the servant to bring him water so that he could wash up. He was rubbing his aching waist, wondering how many more customers he had to receive to collect the money to redeem himself, when he was suddenly startled by a knock on the window.
He grabbed the quilt, sat up, and looked out the window fearfully. He listened carefully, and after making sure that he had not heard it wrong, he stood up, picked up his coat, put it on, and walked towards the window.
"Who?"
When Lin Jiaojiao heard someone answer, she hurriedly whispered, "Sorry to bother you, I'm the guest next door. My husband came to catch me having an affair, so I had no choice but to do this. Could you please let me in and let me leave?"
He listened to the gentle and polite voice of the woman outside the window, and thought that she must not be a bad person. He picked up the lock on the window and slowly pushed open the window door, but did not see anyone.
When he was about to stick his head out to check with a puzzled look, the woman who was covering the lower half of her face with her sleeve also stuck her head out. He was startled and almost screamed, so he quickly took a few steps back.
"I'm sorry to bother you, but please don't tell anyone else about this. I'm shy."
When she saw the man retreating, she hurriedly moved over and entered the house from the windowsill, muttering something, and took out the silver she had prepared in advance from her bosom and placed it on his table.
"This is hush money. Just pretend I've never been here. Sorry for disturbing you."
Without waiting for his reaction, she covered her face, opened the door, stuck her head out to look around, and when she found no one was there, she quickly walked out.
Qi Yao was lying on the bed with a silver needle inserted in his back. He was half asleep and half awake when he remembered the person he had deliberately left on the eaves.
"Is anyone still there?"
"I came into the house a quarter of an hour ago, and am just leaving the street now."
He listened to Lan Qi's report and felt happy again.
I'm really looking forward to seeing you next time.
