Chapter 203?
Listening to Xiao Yan's praise, Qinglin's pretty face turned a shy blush, and she lowered her head and said, "Where...why am I such a good maid..."
Xiao Yan couldn't help but smile and shook his head when he heard this, and said: "Even so, you can't always dress Qinglin in this kind of clothes, right?"
"Such a beautiful girl shouldn't dress up properly. "
"What did you say...Master Xiao Yan..."
Qing Lin lowered her head shyly, murmuring in her cherry lips.
"What's wrong? You want this little girl to be your bed warmer...?"
Ya Fei leaned close to Xiao Yan's ear and lowered her voice.
Xiao Yan was startled by Ya Fei’s sudden words and quickly shook his head. He was still under fifteen years old at most, and Xiao Yan had no such interest in attacking an underage girl. .
Just wait until you become an adult...
Xiao Yan subconsciously turned his head and glanced at the room that had been quiet from beginning to end.
But before he could make any more excuses, wherever Xiao Yan looked, the quiet room suddenly heard the sound of the door being pushed open.
"It's so lively today. Did something rare and good happen?"
Still wearing the same plain skirt, Yaowan walked out of her room with lotus steps.
Everyone followed the sound and turned their heads to look at Yao Wan who walked out of the room.
Yao Wan also looked at the people in the yard. In addition to Xiao Yan and Qing Lin, who were particularly familiar, Ya Fei was also there. What surprised Yao Wan was that Xiao Yan's father, Xiao Zhan, was also there.
Her pale golden eyes flashed with a bit of surprise, but she didn't show any surprise.
Xiao Zhan looked at the beautiful woman who seemed to have grown taller, taller and more beautiful, with a hint of surprise in his eyes.
And for some reason, the temperament of the medicinal herbs he saw before him had also changed compared to three years ago. Compared with Chuchen three years ago, it was a little softer.
“Why is Uncle Xiao here?”
Yaowan let out a light sigh, and then said: "Is it because of the appointment for the next three years?"
"After all, it is about Guan Yan'er's future, and I can't tolerate my neglect."
Xiao Zhan smiled and shook his head and said: "Miss Wan'er, long time no see."
"It's been two years since I saw my uncle."
Ya Wan's eyes There was a flash of strange color, and he said with a smile: "Congratulations, uncle, for being promoted to Dou Ling."
"Hey, it's all thanks to Wan'er's elixir. I'm just a mediocre person. It's hard to improve my cultivation. I'm extremely lucky to have the elixir that Miss Wan'er gave me in the past."
< br>Xiao Zhan waved his hand, and then said with a warm smile: "Not only that, Miss Wan'er secretly helped the Xiao family some time ago, and the Xiao family will never forget it."
But Xiao Zhan's words made Yao Wan was a little confused... No, when did this happen?
Watching Yao Wan blink her beautiful pale golden eyes, Xiao Yan noticed that Miss Wan's eyes gradually fell on him.
It seems like asking: Did you do it?
Xiao Yan understood and shook his head like a rattle behind Xiao Zhan's back. He had been busy practicing for more than a year, how could he have the time to help the Xiao family?
I thought it was you -
Yao Wan, who realized that Xiao Yan’s eyes were not right, could not help but frown slightly... She didn’t know why, but she just felt a little Not quite right.
Yao Wan hesitated for a moment, and then couldn't help but said: "Really? I don't remember that I have done this - could it be that my uncle made a mistake in remembering...?"
Yao Wan’s question only made Xiao Zhan smile and said, “Miss Wan’er’s words are too polite——”
Xiao Zhan shook his head, and his smiling expression didn't look like he believed Yaowan.
When Yao Wan saw Xiao Zhan's expression that could be described as gentle and kind, Yao Wan already secretly thought something was wrong, and it was over.
How could she have time to do such a thing in the first place?
The pair of pale golden eyes showed a rare hint of helplessness and confusion. His eyes swept across the crowd at the moment, but Yao Wan suddenly noticed that Ya Fei couldn't help but notice after hearing the conversation between the two. She lowered her head and raised her jade hand to slightly cover her red lips.
Ya Fei?
After Yao Wan noticed Ya Fei's actions, she immediately reacted. What Xiao Zhan said about helping the Xiao family - could it be that guy Hai Bodong was using the Miter family's resources to help the Xiao family in her name? Bar?
When she thought of this, she couldn't help but raise her hand and rub her temples.
Although her head had not started to hurt yet, she felt that it was about to hurt. Ya Fei immediately noticed Yao Wan's eyes and avoided Yao Wan's sight with some embarrassment.
Now that the deal is done, Yao Wan also knows that there is no need to explain the truth of this matter to Xiao Zhan... Anyway, it just becomes more and more confusing.
However, although the beginning of this conversation was somewhat confusing and gave people an inexplicable headache, in any case, there was nothing wrong with the intersection of Yao Wan, and Xiao Zhan also liked this beauty who treated Yan'er very much from beginning to end.
It was just a matter of relationship between Yan'er and Renjia. No matter how impatient I was, I was too embarrassed to take the lead, so in front of Yaowan, he just gestured to the two of them in a slightly suggestive way. After a while, the topic was stopped in time.
After Yaowan had a conversation with Xiao Zhan, she really couldn’t resist the enthusiasm from her elders, so she had to maintain her forced smile while holding Ya Fei’s hand. Go directly towards the door of the small courtyard.
"Miss Wan'er?"
"Ahahaha... I'm sorry, uncle, I still have some things to do and need to go to the Miter Auction House headquarters. I don’t have much time left to accompany you…”
"Xiao Yan, Qing Lin, I'll leave this to you... Ahem, I'll leave first!"
Without giving Xiao Zhan a chance to stay, Yao Wan smiled and pulled. Cui Yafei ran away in a hurry.
Xiao Zhan didn’t care. As a young man, he couldn’t understand why he didn’t like talking to an old man like him who was half-buried, so he didn’t care that much, as long as he didn’t affect Yan’er and Yan’er. The relationship between people can't be better.
“Oh, Yan’er, I came so suddenly, so I didn’t disturb you, right?”
Xiao Zhan was still a little uneasy, and couldn’t help but move around while standing in the small courtyard. After a moment, he couldn't help but said to Xiao Yan.
"Excuse me... I guess there won't be any."
Xiao Yan couldn't help but say as he looked at Yao Wan's hurriedly leaving figure. The corner of his mouth twitched involuntarily.
——Of course there will be no interruption, but if I am scared by you... that is not necessarily the case.
Of course, Xiao Yan would definitely not say this in front of his father. It is hard to say whether he would make his father angry. I am afraid that his father would feel that he was too old for staying here. He was in the way and turned around to leave. Xiao Yan probably couldn't hold him back even with a carriage.
Xiao Yan secretly complained, forget it, regarding his father, maybe he will have to work with Miss Wan more in the future.
And for some reason, or if it was his misunderstanding, Xiao Yan always felt that Miss Wan seemed a little afraid of her father.
Is this an illusion?
I am afraid that may not be the case, Xiao Yan's intuition told him that this matter does not seem to be that simple.
Mingming Mingming had never had any stage fright when facing a strong Dou Zong warrior like Queen Medusa. How could she be in front of her father - especially this time, she felt like she was being stepped on? Cat-like tail?
It is indeed a bit strange.
.........
While the father and son were chatting wordlessly in the courtyard, Yaowan and Yafei in the alley were walking quickly towards the Miter Auction House headquarters.
The sound of crisp footsteps echoed on the bluestone bricks of the streets of the imperial capital. At this moment, Yafei looked a little afraid to look at Yaowan.
Because at this moment, the beauty who has always been so calm and smiling seems to be so impatient for the first time - according to Ya Fei's understanding, perhaps the only word impatient can be used to describe this moment. The medicine is gone.
"Don't look at it. There's no point in hiding it. You're just an executor. I don't need to embarrass you."
On the way, Yaowan didn't even look at her, but just warned her not to meddle in other people's business.
She could easily piece together the whole story of this incident just from Yao Wan's initial confusion, shock, and disbelief, to her sudden anger and impatience at the end.
Is it possible that Mr. Hai did something unnecessary accidentally?
Although the final executor of this task was herself, she even gradually rose to prominence in the family because of her outstanding completion of this task, and she no longer had to worry about the covetousness of some disgusting guys.
But even so, Ya Fei only guessed the beginning but not the end.
After all, Ya Fei did not expect that Hai Lao would use Miss Wan's reputation to openly provide benefits to the Xiao family - now, the entire Xiao family owes Yao Wan a favor.
As both women, Ya Fei can understand Yao Wan's feelings to a certain extent - it doesn't matter whether she owes a favor or not, but it is obvious that this move has no intention of completely breaking the previous relationship between Yao Wan and Yao Wan. The delicate relationship and balance between the Xiao family.
Yao Wan does not want the Xiao family to owe her too much, because what the Xiao family owes her is what Xiao Yan owes her, although Ya Fei is still a little confused about how far the relationship between the two of them has progressed. Which step has it taken, but the fact before us is indeed the same.
And now - I'm afraid it's just too much fun.
Ya Fei silently avoided Yao Wan's gaze that seemed to want to kill someone, and finally went upstairs with Yao Wan.
Not long after, the sound of the beauty's angry, gnashing teeth came from the top floor of Miter Auction House's headquarters.
"What the hell did you do?"
Ya Fei, who was waiting outside the door, felt ashamed and couldn't even believe her ears.
This seems to be the first time she has heard such harsh words from Miss Wan.
