At this time, the guards in the mansion also arrived with weapons, and Ah Yue stepped forward to take the wooden stick from one of the guards.

She held the wooden stick and patted her hand, looked at the man and said, "You came to look for me?"

The man smiled and nodded, "Yes, I came to look for you."

"Hmph." Ah Yue snorted coldly, "The one who came to see me, instead of going through the main entrance, wanted to sneak up on the roof and listen to us. Who are you lying to?"

She stared, grabbed the wooden stick and pointed at the man, "Tell me, what is your purpose for sneaking into my house."

The man raised his hands, and said helplessly in his voice: "I really came to find you."

"Since you don't tell the truth, don't blame me for being rude." Ah Yue sneered, picked up the stick and greeted the man.

While dodging Ah Yue's stick, the man shouted at Qi Qingxi: "Sister, save me."

Looking at the scene in front of him, Qi Qingxi shook his head and said: "Ah Yue, you stop first, you must give Mr. Zhang a chance to explain."

When Ah Yue heard Qi Qingxi speak, she stopped her movements. She raised her chin and looked at Mr. Zhang: "Zhang Jingkai, I'll give you a chance. Tell me why you want to hide on the roof and eavesdrop on us."

Zhang Jingkai put his hands on his hips and let out a long sigh: "Me and... I were going to come in through the main entrance, but the porter said Mrs. Li and his wife, as well as your brothers and sisters-in-law were not at home, so I was too embarrassed to go in. But you fell into the water yesterday, I don't feel relieved if I don't take a look at your situation in person, so I just..."

Zhang Jingkai cleared his throat, and looked at Ah Yue embarrassedly.

Hearing his words, Ah Yue was at a loss as she held the stick in her hand. She glanced at the guards around her, stomped her feet and said, "Who wants you to rest assured."

Qi Qingxi had a panoramic view of the expressions of the two, and waved to the maid guards to signal them to step back first.

She asked Ah Nuan to pull Ah Yue back and sit down, then looked at Zhang Jingkai with a smile and said, "Young Master Zhang, come and sit down too."

Zhang Jingkai walked into the gazebo cheerfully: "My parents at home call me the third child, and my sister can also call me the third child."

Thinking that the marriage between Zhang Jingkai and Ah Yue was a certainty, Qi Qingxi stopped being polite to Zhang Jingkai, and directly called him the third child.

"Third brother, you must have heard our conversation just now."

She herself felt that she hadn't said anything serious just now, but in this era, the most taboo thing was talking about royal matters.

Just now, those words can be said in one's own family, but if they are accidentally spread, many unnecessary troubles will inevitably arise.

Although she believed that with Zhang Jingkai's character, she would not go out and talk nonsense, but she still felt that she had to explain it to her before she could rest assured.

There was a table full of tea and snacks on the stone table in the middle of the gazebo, Zhang Jingkai didn't need to be entertained, he just poured a glass of water and drank it.

Hearing what Qi Qingxi said, he put down the teacup in his hand, and looked over with a smile on his face: "Did Sister just talk about something? Why didn't I hear a word."

Qi Qingxi was taken aback when she heard the words, although they spoke in a low voice just now, but the eaves where Zhang Jingkai was just now was less than half a meter away from the gazebo, so how could he not hear them.

Immediately she realized that Zhang Jingkai had understood her unfinished words and was responding to her words.

She smiled softly, the third child in this family is really astute.

Ah Yue snorted softly: "You better not have heard."

Zhang Jingkai dragged the stool under him to get in front of Ah Yue, smiled and pointed upwards: "God knows this matter, you know I don't."

Ah Yue stared at him: "What's the matter? You said you didn't hear it, sister, he is a liar, a big liar!"

Zhang Jingkai looked at Ah Yue cheerfully: "Heavenly conscience, I won't lie to you if I lie to anyone. But looking at your lively appearance, I think there is nothing serious, so I can rest assured."

Ah Yue blushed slightly and turned her back to Zhang Jingkai: "Whether I have any serious problems has nothing to do with you."

"Why doesn't it matter? According to the relationship between us, it is simply too related."

Qi Qingxi was amused by Zhang Jingkai's words, and she listened to the bickering between the two with a smile on her face.

Suddenly, there was a noise from the eaves next to it, and everyone in the gazebo looked up.

Ah Yue looked at the eaves with ignorant eyes: "Why can't anyone else be on it?"

Zhang Jingkai coughed a few times with his left hand covering his fist, shook his right hand and said, "There's no one else, I'm the only one, but I just saw a cat beside me, it should be the cat making the noise."

Ah Yue looked suspiciously at Zhang Jingkai: "There is something wrong with you, every time you lie, you cough into your fist."

"Where...how can it be." Zhang Jingkai cleared his throat nervously, and the next second, he suddenly grinned and looked at Ah Yue brightly, "You actually know that I cover my fists and cough when I lie? .”

Ah Yue put her hands on her hips angrily and roared, "I'm telling you the truth, don't talk nonsense here."

At this time, Ah Nuan had gone around to the other side of the eaves to check.

"Sister, I didn't find anyone here." Ah Nuan's voice came from there.

Zhang Jingkai raised his eyebrows, spread his hands at Ah Nuan and said, "Look."

Ah Yue looked at Zhang Jingkai and was speechless for a moment.

Qi Qingxi came over to smooth things over and pulled Ah Yue to sit down: "Okay, Ah Yue, Ah Nuan has already confirmed that there is no one else on the eaves. On the contrary, the third son is worried about your safety and came here to visit you. It is also intentional."

"Sister, this is what I should do."

Zhang Jingkai scratched his head and giggled twice, obviously he was talking to Qi Qingxi, but his eyes kept looking at Ah Yue.

Qi Qingxi looked at the scene in front of him and felt a little funny.

Even because of Zhang Jingkai's sudden interruption, many things became clear to her at the moment.

King Jin and Zhang Jingkai grew up together, so their conduct would not differ too much.

And if King Jin's character is really bad, Gu Yu would directly deny it, and would not let her ask Ah Nuan's opinion.

Seeing Zhang Jingkai's eyes full of A Yue's appearance, King Jin may not be a dedicated man.

As for if King Jin really proclaims himself emperor in the future and has the Six Courts of the Three Palaces, just like what Gu Yu said, if someone dares to target Ah Nuan, he must weigh the bargaining chip in his hand, whether he has the ability to overcome their bullying Ah Nuan.

Of course, the most important thing right now is King Jin's own attitude and the meaning of the queen mother in the palace.

But she would rather the two of them look down on their family and Ah Nuan, so as to save a lot of trouble.

At that time, she will be able to help Ah Nuan find a man he likes, and it would be better to live a peaceful life.
