Rebirth of the High Family's Beloved

Qicun crossed his arms across his chest and said, "Chunzhi is a simple-minded girl, not as cunning as Miss Yan."

Xie Chengyin wanted to roll his eyes, "Do you know the saying that like master, like servant? You actually think Chunzhi is simple-minded. I think you are the simple-minded one."

"I am simple? Then you are simple too. Like master, like servant."

Xie Chengyin almost choked when he was silenced by his own words. He really had a good subordinate who was merciless when confronted with him.

He simply closed his eyes and stopped talking to avoid being pissed off by his good subordinates.

The next day, Yan Ci came to Songyaji to meet Xie Chengyin.

Yan Ci walked in, went straight to the fifth floor as if he was familiar with the place, walked to the door of Room No. Feng, and knocked gently.

Xie Chengyin was still lying on the small bed in the inner room. When he heard the knock on the door, he immediately covered his head with the quilt.

Yesterday he heard Qicun say that Yan Ci had no intention of accepting his letter and suspected him of having bad intentions. Xie Chengyin was deeply shocked and did not even go back to the Yongding Marquis Mansion. He spent the night on this narrow bed.

Xie Chengyin was already in a bad mood, and he didn't sleep well at night, so he was very irritable at this moment.

The sudden knock on the door added fuel to the fire, and he was already on the verge of losing his temper.

Qicun was a smart man. Knowing that Xie Chengyin was in a bad mood, he had already hidden far away, fearing that he would be affected.

Yan Ci knocked twice, but received no response and no one came to open the door.

But I just asked the shopkeeper, and he said Xie Chengyin was inside.

Could it be that the sound was too soft and I didn’t hear it?

Yan Ci increased the strength of his hands, and the knocking sound changed from bang bang bang to dong dong dong.

I guess I'll hear it this time.

As expected, Xie Chengyin not only heard it, he was almost killed by the noise.

Why is Ren Rushong so out of touch today? If there is something urgent, he has to find him when he is in a bad mood.

He had a gloomy face, climbed up from the small bed, went to the door and opened it. Before he could even say "Are you annoying?", his gloomy face suddenly brightened up after he saw that the person coming was Yan Ci.

The word "annoying" turned into a surprised "Thirteenth Girl".

Looking at Xie Chengyin who was only wearing a white inner garment, Yan Ci's eyes widened slightly, "You, did you just wake up?"

It's already the end of the Si hour.

When her eyes fell on Xie Chengyin's exposed chest and abdomen, she couldn't help but take a few more glances.

Yan Ci secretly had a new understanding of Xie Chengyin. He usually looked slim and tall, but he turned out to be very strong. He was indeed a martial artist. Even if his martial arts skills were mediocre, he could still strengthen his body.

When Xie Chengyin saw Yan Ci's eyes lingering on him, he realized that his clothes were disheveled and his breasts were exposed. He immediately took a step back to avoid Yan Ci's gaze, slammed the door shut, and said to Yan Ci through the door: "Wait a moment, I'll clean up."

Yan Ci said regretfully: "Then I'll go to the next room and wait for you."

About a quarter of an hour later, Xie Chengyin finished packing and came to Room No. Fengzi B, where he saw Yan Ci sitting quietly at the low table, not knowing what he was thinking about.

As soon as Xie Chengyin entered the room, he sat opposite Yan Ci. Just like the last time they met, he took the initiative to take the teapot and refill tea for Yan Ci.

He first apologized to Yan Ci for his embarrassing behavior just now. He let a girl see him in a disheveled state, and if the news got out, it would be bad for both the girl and him.

Yan Ci didn't care at all. It wasn't like he saw anything he shouldn't have seen. It was just his belly and chest that were exposed. Compared to the shirtless soldiers he had seen in the army, this was nothing to mention.

Without waiting for Xie Chengyin to ask, Yan Ci directly stated his purpose.

"I came here today to thank you and to apologize for my doubts about you a few days ago."

Xie Chengyin guessed that he worked so hard to do all these things just to make Yan Ci owe him a favor.

Now that his goal had been achieved, Xie Chengyin was extremely happy, and it showed on his face with the corners of his lips curling up so hard that he couldn't suppress it.

But he still pretended to be calm and said, "No need to thank me. I think you have helped me before, so now we are even."

Yan Ci glanced at Xie Chengyin, he didn't expect that he didn't take this opportunity to ask her to join Song Ya Ji. He revealed it so easily, could it be that he had a bigger plan?

After saying this, Xie Chengyin wanted to slap himself twice. What he clearly wanted to express was that there was no need to thank me, just consider it as someone I owed him a favor, but how could he say that it was even.

He didn't want to be even. He couldn't let go of the opportunity that he had finally gotten.

His mind raced, "Although I don't need to thank you, I still need to apologize. You don't know how much damage your distrust has caused to my fragile heart. I haven't slept well these past few days. Look at the dark circles under my eyes."

Xie Chengyin leaned forward and asked Yan Ci to look at his dark circles very seriously, as if to say that he was not pretending.

Yan Ci did notice the darkness under Xie Chengyin's eyes. It was true that he had dark circles, but who knew if it was due to sadness?

She was too lazy to argue with him, and she had already made up her mind to join Song Ya Ji before coming here. With Xie Chengyin's apology gift as an excuse, it was much more reasonable for her to take the initiative to say that she wanted to join Song Ya Ji.

He picked up the teacup and drank half of it in one breath, then pushed the cup in front of Xie Chengyin. Xie Chengyin understood what he meant and filled it for Yan Ci, then pushed the cup back.

Then I heard Yan Ci say: "I didn't bring any money with me today, so I can't buy a gift. I remember you said last time that you wanted me to join Song Ya Ji, I wonder if this can be used as a gift?"

This is what Xie Chengyin was waiting for. When he heard Yan Ci take the initiative to say this, he immediately responded straightforwardly: "Of course, this is the best apology gift I have received this year."

Both of them were satisfied with the other's active cooperation and response. With such a partner, future work should not be too difficult.

After the agreement was reached, Xie Chengyin stood up and said, "Come on, I'll take you to meet Manager Ren and let him take you to get familiar with Songyaji. In the future, you will be the third boss of Songyaji."

"Third Boss?" Wasn't she asked to be the deputy manager?

"Yes, I'm the second boss, Qiu Yuzhu is the big boss, and you're the third boss. Don't worry, Qiu Yuzhu doesn't come often, and I'm not the type to be in charge, so just let go and do your job. If anyone wants to cause trouble for you, I'll be the first one to not forgive him."

Yan Ci had never seen Xie Chengyin protect her, but now that she and he were in the same camp, he naturally treated her as one of his own.

But she joined Songyaji for selfish reasons. When she saw that Xie Chengyin had found out who was following her in just a few days, she thought of using Xie Chengyin's manpower to investigate the Prince Xiang's Mansion, look for clues, and clear Hua Cijing's name.

Yan Ci lowered his eyelids to hide the complexity in his eyes, stood up and followed Xie Chengyin downstairs.

Although she took advantage of him, she would also do her best to help Xie Chengyin achieve what he wanted.

Just consider it as compensation to him.
