Quick Travel: Redeeming the yandere villain Little Poor

Chapter 704 Coveting Father’s Concubine 15

Returning to Xie's Mansion from the East Palace, the first assistant had been waiting in front of the mansion early. When he saw the girl getting off the carriage, the first assistant's eyes were wet and shiny. He didn't even care about the rain and ran towards her to take her into his arms. inside.

Xie Yuan, who was following Ji Yan, froze, his knuckles holding the handle of the umbrella turned white, his eyes were cold, and he did not look at this scene.

The first assistant ran towards her enthusiastically, which frightened Ji Yan so much that she loosened her fingers and let her skirt hang down. She raised both hands to resist Xie Lin. The first assistant jumped away and looked at her aggrievedly.

Ji Yan sighed, then pretended to be angry and said, "It's all your fault that I was kidnapped by the prince."

The first assistant felt a pain in his heart and showed a bitter look on his face: "It's all my fault that Yanyan is wronged."

Ji Yan didn't speak anymore, she only looked up at Shuangshuang. The little girl understood immediately and held an umbrella to pick her up: "Madam, Shuangshuang will take you home."

Hearing this, the girl raised her sleeves and placed her white and soft little hands on Shuangshuang's palm. She ignored the chief assistant and was obviously still angry.

The first assistant was helpless, but at the moment he felt more guilty and worried, so he had no choice but to tell Shuangshuang: "Take good care of Madam."

Shuangshuang nodded vigorously and carefully took his wife back to Shaoguangyuan.

Xie Yuan couldn't help but raise his head and stared at his aunt's delicate and gentle back. He was lost in thought. He didn't even know that the umbrella was tilted a little. The rain fell on his back and moistened the ends of his hair.

He was confused and didn't know where the secret joy in his heart came from.

...

After returning to Shaoguang Hospital, Shuangshuang kept talking in Ji Yan's ear about how anxious the chief assistant was after she disappeared. He couldn't eat well or sleep well for the past two days, and couldn't take more than a few bites of the meals delivered by the kitchen each time. , worried that she would not even think about food or tea.

Ji Yan lay on the beauty's couch, listening and letting Shuangshuang comb her hair.

She sighed in her heart. She knew that the first assistant cared about her and was really good to her, but after all, she was not the original owner and did not love the first assistant. She could not be in harmony with him.

She was even thinking about how to make peace with the chief assistant. She wanted to make peace not for the villain, but for herself. Ji Yan couldn't force herself to do this, and she couldn't bear to let down the chief assistant's love all the time. If she could It might be better for both parties to make it clear earlier, and Ji Yan doesn't think the chief assistant will only love her from now on.

But with the current level of the chief assistant, he probably won't be able to change his mind for a while.

That night, the chief assistant was afraid that he would make her angry if he appeared, so he did not come. But what made Ji Yan even more unexpected was that Xie Yuan actually came to Shaoguang Courtyard to ask to see her.

Ji Yan put on her coat, straightened it briefly, and then called Shuangshuang to let Xie Yuan in.

Incense was burned in Ji's house, and the smell was light, not pleasant but not unpleasant. Xie Yuan used to think that the fragrance on her body was from the incense she burned on daily basis, but it seemed not to be the case. The girl's fragrance was different from that of the incense. The smell of incense throughout the house is so different.

When Ji Yan saw Xie Yuan, she took the initiative to ask him what he had not had time to ask today: "Has the prince given you trouble in other places?"

Xie Yuan paused, shook his head, and asked her how she had been in the East Palace these past two days, and whether the prince had made things difficult for her.

Ji Yan also shook her head and said: "The prince almost didn't show up. He only kept me under house arrest in his bedroom and didn't treat me harshly."

Xie Yuan nodded and breathed a sigh of relief.

Ji Yan remembered something again and told him by the way: "I saw Jinghe in the prince's bedroom. I wonder if you still remember Jinghe. It was the day I punished you to kneel in the courtyard. Later, The boy who took you back."

Xie Yuan said: "Remember."

Ji Yan then continued: "Then have you heard that the article written by Jing He was very popular and he showed off his skills at the spring banquet. He was deeply loved by the prince and was treated as a guest by the prince."

"I've heard of it." The young man said calmly, his eyes showing nothing strange.

Ji Yan thought of Jinghe's tragic situation and couldn't help but pinched her fingers: "But that's not the case. Jinghe was not a special guest. He was tied up in the palace with a dog chain by the prince. He was neither human nor ghost. His end was very miserable. , the prince did not treat him as a human being."

Xie Yuan saw her purse her lips, frowning slightly and said: "Monk Jing is like this, I'm afraid he will treat you too..."

Under the dim candlelight, the young man's eyes turned pitch black at some point, his lips were brightly colored, and his calm and beautiful face suddenly gained a heart-pounding color.

She was speechless and stared blankly at his face. Then she heard Xie Yuan ask: "Are you caring about me?"

The young man's voice was slightly hoarse, and his voice seemed to be soaked in stream water.

Ji Yan didn't think much for a moment and just followed his words and replied: "Well, the prince is moody and eccentric in his actions. He rarely takes the ordinary path. I'm afraid he will treat you the same way he treated Jing He."

During the two days she was in the East Palace, if she had not given Jinghe water and food, Ji Yan was sure that Jinghe would have died and no one would have cared about him. Ji Yan also had no idea why the prince wanted to lock her and Jinghe in a At the same time, did he do it on purpose, let her see Jinghe on purpose, and let her decide his life or death?

Ji Yan is not even sure whether Jing He is also a part of the prince's plan.

The prince is indeed a very dangerous creature, and accompanying him is like accompanying a tiger, so Ji Yan will inevitably be worried.

But the next second, Xie Yuan said firmly: "No."

His eyes were dark, and the young man looked like a breathtaking monster in the night. He looked at her and said word by word: "The prince will not do that to me."

Ji Yan was stunned, attracted by that breathtaking face. After being stunned for a long time, she came back to her senses and said, "That, that's good."

"Auntie, don't mention Jinghe's matter to outsiders, not even Shuangshuang."

Ji Yan promised him: "Okay."

I don't know if it was her imagination, but under the dim candlelight, the boy's usually straight lips slightly curved. When he looked closely, the thin lip line became straight again, as if it had never been curved before.

"It's getting late, my aunt should go to bed early." The young man warned her warmly and said goodbye to her.

It took Ji Yan a long time to recover, nodded to him, and then watched Xie Yuan walk away.

Did he really laugh just now?

He looks so pretty when he smiles. It would be nice if he could smile more often.

Ji Yan couldn't help but sigh, and thought about it carefully, she realized that what Xie Yuan had just told her was not unreasonable, and that Jinghe's matter must not be told outside. Offending the prince is like being stuck with dirt, so it's best not to offend him.

After this incident, Xie Yuan often went in and out of the East Palace. On weekdays, the prince would always take him with him and introduce him to everyone he met. This move also showed everyone that the chief minister's position was now biased.

However, everyone did not take Xie Yuan seriously. They only knew that he was the legitimate son of the first minister, so they paid tribute to him for the sake of the great scholar.

The neglect was so obvious that even the prince noticed it, but the prince didn't care. Whether it was sand or pearls, no one knew better than him.

The prince just laughed and said to Xie Yuan in a cold tone: "You see, they all look down on you. Tell me, which way is the most painful way to hit them in the face?"
