Rebirth of the High Family's Beloved

Xie Chengyin was a little amused.

This is what it means to die before achieving success.

Xie Chengyin immediately felt as if there was a breath stuck in his chest that couldn't go up or down.

He raised his eyes and glanced at Yan Ci who was standing there motionless.

Yan Ci's fair face was slightly flushed, her eyes were lowered, and her expression could not be seen clearly. She looked very calm, as if the person who was kissed just now was not her at all.

Xie Chengyin's eyes darkened, and he felt extremely uncomfortable in his heart.

He did kiss Yan Ci just now, but even if it was just a light kiss, the person involved would have a reaction.

But what is the expression of Yan Ci's expressionless face?

Was it really that the kiss was too shallow?

Xie Chengyin was doubting himself, feeling a sense of defeat, and couldn't help but have wild thoughts in his mind.

However, Yan Ci's heart was not as calm as she looked on the surface. Although she tried her best to tell herself that Xie Chengyin was simply teaching her how to make Zhao Yunlan cry, her chest still felt like there was a rabbit in it, beating uncontrollably.

She felt like she was almost unable to breathe.

After taking several deep breaths, she slowly stabilized her heartbeat, but she still didn't dare to look up at Xie Chengyin.

Xie Chengyin's eyes were so deep and unfathomable that she was worried that she would lose herself if she was not careful.

The two men stood there for a while with different thoughts in their minds. Then, they heard the sound of a door opening. They thought it was Qi Cun who came back, and they both looked towards the door at the same time.

Then Qiu Fuqiu rushed into the room in a bright red dress, and her excited voice rang out.

"Aci, Aci, I heard you were here, I have something big to show you!"

Yan Ci raised a smile and walked out from the inner room. "What excitement makes you so excited?"

Qiu Fuqiu eagerly grabbed Yan Ci's hand, her eyes full of smiles, "You'll know when you go there, you'll definitely be interested."

As he said that, he pulled Yan Ci and was about to leave. Xie Chengyin who was standing inside was completely ignored.

Seeing that Qiu Fuqiu was about to take the person away without even saying hello, Xie Chengyin followed her out and said with a hint of coldness in his voice, "What excitement has aroused your interest, Miss Qiu?"

Only then did Qiu Fuqiu realize that there was another person in the room.

His expression was a little stunned, "Why are you here?"

Xie Chengyin rolled his eyes at Qiu Fuqiu and said, "This is my room. Shouldn't I be here?"

“Just now I saw Qi Cun and Zhao Yunlan together, and I thought they were going to look for you. But since she didn’t look for you, she must have just left your place. I saw that she looked very angry…”

As Qiu Fuqiu spoke, she realized where she was. Her gaze stayed on the two people in front of her for a moment. Suddenly, her eyes widened and a look of great surprise appeared on her face.

"Could it be that Zhao Yunlan saw you two in the same room just now?"

Yan Ci nodded honestly, "That's right."

"Oh no, oh no, she looks so angry, she must have misunderstood you two, Ah Ci, run quickly, that woman is not a pushover."

After saying that, he pulled Yan Ci out again.

Yan Ci was dragged by Qiu Fuqiu and took two steps before being grabbed by Xie Chengyin who was standing behind him. "Why are you panicking? You've seen everything you should have seen. How can you run away?"

Qiu Fuqiu was confused. "What do you mean you saw everything you should see? What did you two do?"

Xie Chengyin glanced at Yan Ci meaningfully, but kept silent, leaving enough space for the gossip-loving Qiu Fuqiu.

Yan Ci glanced at Xie Chengyin and instantly remembered the brief kiss just now. His heart, which had calmed down, began beating uncontrollably again.

Qiu Fuqiu was just curious when she saw Yan Ci and Xie Chengyin making eye contact with each other.

I immediately smelled the scent of gossip: "You two..."

Yan Ci immediately turned around and stopped Qiu Fuqiu's scattered thoughts, "The two of us did indeed irritate Zhao Yunlan."

Then she told Qiu Fuqiu about how she and Xie Chengyin had acted out of spite of Zhao Yunlan, but she omitted the kiss between them at the end.

Qiu Fuqiu smiled when she heard this, "Ah Ci, you did a great job."

Then she glanced at Xie Chengyin and imitated Zhao Yunlan's words, "But, won't Brother Chengyin be angry? Brother Chengyin really cares for me."

Xie Chengyin was disgusted by the voice. His eyes were like knives, and he shot towards Qiu Fuqiu. He gritted his teeth and said, "Qiu Fuqiu!"

Qiu Fuqiu laughed, made a face at Xie Chengyin, and turned to Yan Ci, "Oh, by the way, Ah Ci, I almost forgot something important, let's go, or we'll miss the show if we're late."

Yan Ci walked out of Songyaji and let out a long sigh.

Fortunately, she reacted quickly, otherwise she would have lost face today.

Yan Ci couldn't help but pursed her lips as she followed Qiu Fuqiu, the soft touch seemed to be engraved in her mind, somewhat lingering.

She has lived two lives in her past and present lives, and this is her first time kissing.

She smacked her lips and laughed, "Not bad."

Qiu Fuqiu turned around and looked at the smirking Yan Ci, "What do you mean it's not bad?"

Yan Ci blushed, "I said the weather is really good today, the sun is shining, the breeze is gentle, it's a good day to watch a play."

Qiu Fuqiu nodded in agreement, "That's right."

Soon, Yan Ci was brought by Qiu Fuqiu to a magnificent building.

After the last experience of going to the wrong place in Qushui Pavilion, Yan Ci took a closer look at the plaque before entering this time, and carefully read the meaning of the plaque.

"Houting?"

Yan Ci pondered for a long time but still couldn't figure out what this back pavilion meant, and what this small building that looked very luxurious was.

But she has experience and knows that it is best not to go to places you don't know, so as to avoid embarrassment.

Looking at Yan Ci standing in a daze at the steps of the back pavilion, Qiu Fuqiu, who had already walked to the door, turned back and asked, "Why don't you go in?"

Yan Ci shook his head. "I have never been to this place. What is it for?"

Qiu Fuqiu smiled mysteriously, leaned close to Yan Ci's ear and whispered something in his ear, which immediately stunned Yan Ci.

When a pair of big eyes with clear black and white looked at the word "Houting", the smile on his face seemed a little unnatural.

It turns out... the word "Houting" has such a profound meaning.

Yan Ci smiled awkwardly and began to walk backwards, "I won't go into this place, you can go and see the excitement you mentioned, I'll wait for you outside."

Even though she knew what this place was, she would not dare to go in.

This place is even more terrifying than Qushui Pavilion.

Qiu Fuqiu had finally managed to get Yan Ci to watch the fun with her, so how could she just give up? She grabbed Yan Ci and started begging, "Ah Ci, please, come with me."

Qiu Fuqiu tried to pull him, but Yan Ci stepped back. As he stepped back, he was blocked by something behind him.

When he turned around and saw the person coming, an embarrassed expression suddenly froze on his face.
