Lin Qingyao made an expression of sudden realization, then shook Xiao Jingyi's arm apologetically, and said coquettishly: "It turns out that His Highness was thinking about Yao'er, but it was just now that Yao'er was a little ignorant. Yao'er also cared too much about Your Highness. That's why, Your Highness, please don't be angry with Yao'er, okay?"

After Lin Qingyao finished speaking, she felt goosebumps all over her body.

Xiao Jingyi had always disliked Lin Qingyao's coquettishness.

In his eyes, he didn't think Lin Qingyao was cute at all, he just thought she was a bit pretentious and her coquettish tone made him feel uncomfortable all over.

But no matter how bored you are, you have to show that you are enjoying it.

"As long as Yao'er can understand my thoughts, how can I bear to blame you."

Lin Qingyao smiled at him, then stepped forward to hold Lin Qingrou's arm and said softly: "Third sister, it was my sister who was not thinking carefully. Don't worry about it."

Seeing that she finally relented, Lin Qingrou breathed a sigh of relief and said softly: "How could it be possible? Rou'er understands what my sister is thinking."

Lin Qingyao smiled slightly, "My sister has always been so considerate. It's getting late, let's go."

The three of them took a carriage and arrived at Tianxiang Tower.

There was no need to be sneaky today, so Xiao Jingyi naturally chose the more elegant Tianxiang Tower.

When the shopkeeper saw Lin Qingyao greeting her as usual, there was nothing strange on his face.

"I have met His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince, Miss Lin II, and Miss Lin III."

Xiao Jingyi gave him a hand and said, "No courtesy, shopkeeper."

"Thank you, Your Highness. The room you reserved is ready. Please come upstairs, three of you."

Lin Qingyao chuckled in her heart. Xiao Jingyi had already booked a room in advance. It seemed that he came to the Hou Mansion with a purpose today.

The three of them followed the boy to the door of the room. Lin Qingyao looked up and saw Lotus Pavilion.

Lin Qingyao smiled slightly, she really suited Lin Qingrou.

The Lotus Pavilion is also on the fourth floor, but it is still a little inferior compared to the Peony Pavilion.

Now that the Peony Pavilion has become a room exclusively for Lin Qingyao and Jamel Xiao, Xiao Jingyi naturally cannot book it.

However, with Xiao Jingyi's identity, it was not surprising that he could book a superior room on the fourth floor.

The three of them sat down and after the dishes were served, they all ate in silence, but no one spoke.

Lin Qingyao snorted inwardly, obviously she wanted to say something, but she didn't take the initiative to speak.

Lin Qingyao usually has a lively personality, and she is the first to start the conversation every time.

Both Xiao Jingyi and Lin Qingrou knew this clearly, so they were not in a hurry. Lin Qingyao could not help but speak first.

Lin Qingyao didn't bother to argue with them. It would be abnormal if she didn't say something first.

So Lin Qingyao smiled brightly, "These are all Yao'er's favorite dishes. Your Highness is so kind to Yao'er."

This is true. The dishes Xiao Jingyi ordered were indeed Lin Qingyao's usual favorites, and he was pretty good at showing off his skills.

Xiao Jingyi smiled fondly when he heard this, "This is what I should do, as long as Yao'er likes it. Eat more, I see you have lost weight these days."

Lin Qingyao almost spat out the food in her mouth after hearing what he said. Xiao Jingyi was telling lies with his eyes open.

Neither of them bothered her recently. She was doing well, but she had lost weight.

Lin Qingyao glanced at Lin Qingrou silently. Lin Qingrou had lost a lot of weight recently in order to pretend to be pitiful. He was probably trying to tell Lin Qingrou what he was saying.

Lin Qingyao didn't want to expose him, so she pretended not to know and said with a smile: "Okay, Yao'er will listen to His Highness."

"I haven't seen you in the past few days. I'm very curious as to what Yao'er has done."

On weekdays, when Lin Qingyao sees Xiao Jingyi, she will take the initiative to share her daily life with him, detailing everything. Xiao Jingyi gets very irritated every time.

But today Xiao Jingyi expected her to say it, but she didn't mention it at all.

Xiao Jingyi was a little impatient with waiting, so he had to take the initiative to ask.

Oh, I finally couldn't wait to get to the point. It turned out that I wanted to find out what she had done.

Lin Qingyao deliberately avoided important matters and only said some insignificant things.

"It's nothing. The third sister is recovering from her injuries and it's not convenient to disturb her. I often go to the eldest sister to talk and kill time."

"Other than that?"

Xiao Jingyi saw that she didn't mention the matter of traveling at all, so he patiently guided her.

"There's nothing special about anything else. I just came here to have a meal with my second brother."

Seeing that Xiao Jingyi was not satisfied with what she said, Lin Qingyao gradually understood what he wanted to hear.

I'm afraid that Lin Qingrou told him about their trip a few days ago and came to investigate.

The more Xiao Jingyi wanted to hear her say it personally, the more she didn't mention it. Anyway, he didn't dare to take the initiative to reveal that he knew about it, so he could only act anxiously.

Lin Qingyao enjoyed seeing Xiao Jingyi's anxious expression at this moment, it was really interesting.

Xiao Jingyi and Lin Qingrou looked at each other, both of them were a little at a loss.

Lin Qingrou thought for a moment, seemed to have made up her mind, and took the initiative to speak: "Second sister, have you forgotten that you went horse riding in the countryside with the fifth princess and the fifth prince a few days ago?"

Lin Qingyao sneered, Lin Qingrou really couldn't hold her breath.

Although Xiao Jingyi felt that Lin Qingrou was a little impulsive, now that she had spoken out, he had to seize the opportunity to attack Lin Qingyao.

Xiao Jingyi pretended to be angry and said: "Yao'er, you and your fifth brother went riding together? Why didn't you call me?"

Lin Qingyao ignored Xiao Jingyi for now, glared at Lin Qingrou, raised her voice and said: "Third sister, how can you tell His Highness this matter? Didn't I tell you that going with the fifth prince is a helpless act? You see, it has made His Highness unhappy."

Lin Qingrou looked frightened when she heard this, and pulled Lin Qingyao's sleeve, "I'm sorry, sister, Rou'er didn't mean it. It's just that His Highness the Fourth Prince asked about it just now, and Rou'er said it quickly without considering this issue. "

Then he turned to Xiao Jingyi and said, "Your Highness, Fourth Prince, don't be angry. My sister didn't mean it. Don't blame her."

Lin Qingyao snorted in her heart, it was her who said the words, and turned around to be a good person again.

Lin Qingyao did not respond to her, and stepped forward to hold Xiao Jingyi's arm, "Your Highness, it was Ning'er who invited me to go horse riding, and I didn't know that the fifth prince would go. As her brother, the fifth prince said that he would protect her safety. I have no reason to refuse."

"Yao'er thought there were only a few of us girls, so she asked her second brother to protect us. I know His Highness is busy with affairs, and I dare not disturb His Highness for such a trivial matter. Yao'er only has His Highness in her heart and cannot see other men at all. Your Highness Just don’t be angry.”

Lin Qingyao didn't want them to know that she was helping her eldest sister and her second brother get married, so she found a reason for her to go.

Xiao Jingyi patted Lin Qingyao's hand, "Yao'er, I don't blame you. It's just that you clearly know what fifth brother thinks about you, and it's really hard for me not to have random thoughts when you are interacting in private like this."
