Don't disturb me, I won't be a concubine

Cui Qiyan was surprised when he heard this and raised his eyebrows: "Have you figured it out?"

"I'm not confused at all. If the young master could inform me early on, maybe I can cooperate with you better." Yunling met his eyes calmly.

Cui Qiyan never thought about this. In his understanding, he didn't need to explain clearly when he wanted a servant to do something, and the person didn't need to know too much. They just had to do as he said.

Her tone and demeanor at this time were completely different from the insincere and stiff tone last night, which made him think carefully about this issue unconsciously.

At the same time, he was also more curious about the reason for her sudden change, "What made you figure it out?"

"It's hard to say. Maybe it's the fellow woman's sympathy for the experiences of the nine girls, or the fact that the slave has no right to choose, or maybe the arrow is on the string now, and the slave is not allowed to back down, so why not lend a helping hand to the young master." Yun said. Ling casually gave a few reasons.

The corners of Cui Qiyan's lips curved slightly, and he hummed softly: "You are being sincere now."

What she said should be what she was thinking, but he was not satisfied with this answer. It was not what he wanted to hear.

"I don't dare to hide it. I have no say in what the master will do to the slave in the future." Yunling paused and said, "In case the slave is kidnapped, I only hope that the master can save the slave's life with his permission. "

According to her understanding during this period, Cui Qiyan was a man who kept his word. If he agreed, he would try his best to save her life. She didn't dare to hope for more.

Her cautious request made Cui Qiyan unhappy, "It seems you still didn't listen to what I said. I already told you that nothing would happen to you. Since you are so uneasy,

Ji Bai still stays to protect you. "

"That's not what I mean," Yun Ling saw the anger on his face and hurriedly explained, "I trust the master and sincerely hope that the master can find the culprit as soon as possible. Ji Bai will get twice the result with half the effort by following you. I can't be a burden to you."

"If you believe me, why do you confirm with me again and again?" Cui Qiyan narrowed his eyes.

"Slave..."

"I want to hear the truth."

Yunling gritted her teeth and confessed all the fear in her heart, "I'm afraid that the Crown Prince will do what he did the year before last. I watched with cold eyes as I was held hostage by Mr. Lu."

There was no way, after that incident, the look in his eyes in her dream was too scary.

Cui Qiyan was startled, and then recalled the scene at that time. At that time, he suspected that her mind was impure. Seeing that she was being caught by Lu Siheng, he was naturally too lazy to take action. If Yaying and Qiyu hadn't asked him for help, he would probably have watched the Western Region people whip their whips towards her.

Unexpectedly, she remembered this incident until now.

Knowing her concerns, his expression softened, "It's all in the past, I promise you this time."

"Thank you, Master." Yun Ling breathed a sigh of relief. With his assurance, she didn't seem so afraid of the flower picker anymore. "It's important to investigate the case. Master, you'd better take Ji Bai with you when you go out to do business. I'll be careful." .”

Ji Bai, who originally expected Cui Qiyan to agree, fell silent after hearing her words. He is willing to stay or go, but he should follow the master's arrangements.

Cui Qiyan thought for a moment, nodded and said, "That's fine, if we can find useful clues earlier, you don't have to worry."

After the matter was settled, Cui Qiyan and Ji Bai went out early the next morning.

Yunling has nothing to do in the house

Things to do, tidying up the residence as usual. Cui Qiyan only brought her a maid, and his bedroom was not allowed to the servants in the house, so naturally she could only take care of it. She knew his rules. She wouldn't touch any of his personal belongings and only kept what was on display.

She took a nap in the afternoon, woke up and went for a walk in the yard.

The most eye-catching thing in this house is the plane tree on the east side. The trunk is straight and more than ten meters high. Yunling stepped forward and circled around it. The tree was so thick that she might not be able to wrap her arms around it.

"You like this tree too?"

The sudden sound startled her. She turned around and saw Yan Xiangwen walking in loudly.

She lowered her head and saluted, "Master Yan."

"Don't be too polite."

Yan Xiangwen's outstretched hand appeared in front of her eyes. Sensing that he was coming to help her, she immediately stood up straight and hid back without leaving a trace.

"My young master has gone out to investigate the case and hasn't come back yet. If anything happens to Mr. Yan, my servant can convey it to you."

Yan Xiangwen withdrew his hand with a hint of disappointment, "It doesn't matter, Mr. Nie is busy, unlike me, who is idle, so I will wait here for his return."

Yunling glanced at Lao Ding, who was standing silently aside. This was the Yan family's house after all, so naturally these people wouldn't stop Yan Xiangwen from coming.

"Then please invite Mr. Yan to sit in the room for a while."

Yan Xiangwen turned around and found a stone bench under the tree to sit down. "I liked playing under this sycamore tree when I was a child. When I grew up, I would come and sit here occasionally. I would just sit here and wait."

"My servant is going to make a pot of tea for Mr. Yan." Yunling excused herself and left.

Yan Xiangwen looked at her slim back and couldn't help but be lost in thought. When we saw her in the daytime, she was even more beautiful than that night, and her voice was soft and graceful.

Listen, Mr. Nie is really blessed.

Yunling deliberately waited for a while before taking the tea out, "I've kept Mr. Yan waiting for a long time."

"Everything is fine," Yan Xiangwen said without looking at the tea cup on the table. He stared directly at her, "I don't know the girl's name?"

Yunling was embarrassed and didn't answer, "My maid, Yunling."

"Yunling, what a good name." He picked up the teacup and took a sip, "Are you used to living here? If there's anything wrong, tell Lao Ding."

"Thank you, Mr. Yan, for your concern. My son does not think there is anything inappropriate."

Yan Xiangwen smiled when he heard this, put down the tea cup and stood up, approaching her, "I'm not asking about Mr. Nie, but you, Yunling."

The look in his eyes made Yunling very uncomfortable. She was not deaf, so of course she knew he was asking her. But why does he care about how her maid lives? Her answer had already reminded him tactfully, but she didn't know whether he really didn't understand or was just pretending to be confused, but she still kept asking.

"As long as my master is good, then I will be fine," Yunling said happily, "I still have things to do, so please retire first."

She turned around in a hurry, but she was grabbed by Yan Xiangwen's arm, "If you have anything to do, let me find someone to do it. You, a tender-skinned person, don't do those rough jobs."

Yunling's hair stood up coldly, and she pulled her hand back but didn't pull it back. She said sternly: "I am a servant, so I should do these things. Master Yan, please let me go!"

Yan Xiangwen didn't take her words seriously. Instead, he was aroused to be competitive. Not only did he not let go, but he took a step closer.

"Why don't you leave and follow me. I promise not to let you do these servants' jobs in the future. If you like this house, I can give it to you, how about it?"

Yunling face

His face was livid, and he struggled to break away, "Master Yan, please respect yourself!"

"Master Yan, what are you doing?" Cui Qiyan came from a distance, his smile not reaching his eyes.
