"You …"

Liu Xinyue really couldn't imagine that he hadn't come into direct contact with Cai Ju at all, right? Some of them were people that he had probably only seen in He Jinlan's place, so why would this person suddenly look so deep in love?

"mr howe, this humble servant truly requests nothing more than to stay by mister's side." Cai Ju saw Liu Xinyue opened his mouth to speak, and seemed to be afraid that would reject him, and immediately replied: "This servant knows, if this servant says those words to Mister suddenly, I'm afraid it will scare Mister away."

"But mr howe, this servant also asks you to consider carefully. You only have a tall and sturdy servant by your side, and no maid to service you.

"…"

When Liu Xinyue heard Cai Ju's words, the veins on his forehead kept on popping up.

What kind of person was he? How ridiculous!

Who does this Cai Ju think he is? With such a loud voice, it's not convenient for me to … And from the way she said it, it sounded as if she was in love with him at first sight.

However … It was really a pity, Liu Xinyue was not a man, and he did not exist.

Furthermore, even if Liu Xinyue was really a man, she still wouldn't like Cai Ju. She didn't even look at her own identity, and dared to say such words!

If she was truly a man with status like Huo Zhongxi, even if she married a concubine, she wouldn't look for someone with status like Cai Ju, let alone a wife!

"Cai Ju, wait a moment."

Seeing that Cai Ju had finished speaking, and was looking at Liu Xinyue bashfully, then turned and left quickly, Liu Xinyue immediately stopped him, but Cai Ju pretended that he did not hear him, and walked away quickly.

"…" Liu Xinyue watched Cai Ju's back as if he was escaping, and a drop of sweat slowly flowed down his forehead.

"You still haven't told me where He Jinlan is, Cai Ju!"

Liu Xinyue was speechless, she had previously blocked the way and beat him up, but now Cai Ju had revealed his confession, was this how all the servants in the Prime Minister's Estate were adjusted?

There was no other way, Cai Ju had already disappeared, and he did not care about it anymore. He decided to take this opportunity to walk around the mansion and observe carefully.

Speaking of which, ever since Liu Xinyue arrived here, he had yet to take a good look at the true appearance of this Prime Minister's Estate, and hadn't seen anyone else within it.

After standing in place and looking around, Liu Xinyue decided to walk through the nearest corridor.

After thinking about it, Liu Xinyue slowly walked along the walkway. On the walls of the walkways, there were many carvings, and it looked extremely mysterious. After walking a distance, he entered a small garden, which was filled with flowers, plants and trees.

Looking at the flowers and trees, Liu Xinyue suddenly remembered to ask Deaf Uncle to bring all of his plants onto the carriage.

"Crap, I actually forgot to bring the flowers and plants down!"

Liu Xinyue facepalmed himself, blaming himself for being so careless!

"Although it is not a must, since it is hers, there is no reason for me to leave it to others." Liu Xinyue thought about it, and in the end decided to wait until night before going to the relay station to bring back the flowers and herbs.

Presumably, when the people at the inn saw the additional flowers and plants that suddenly appeared on the carriage, they would not take care of it so easily. Furthermore, Liu Xinyue chose to go there again at night to prevent He Jinlan from asking him about it after discovering it.

After admiring some flowers and plants in the little garden, Liu Xinyue was prepared to continue walking forward, but he didn't expect that he would be stopped by someone.

"mr howe, mr howe, wait!"

Liu Xinyue turned around to look and realized it was actually Cai Ju who ran away first before him. He was once again panting heavily as he chased after him and this time, he could clearly see the other party's face become red and swollen.

"mr howe, Madam is waiting for you in her room. Please follow me."

This time, Cai Ju no longer had the bashful look from before, but had a face of patience as he lowered his head and spoke.

"Cai Ju, what's wrong with your face?"

Seeing the changes in Cai Ju, Liu Xinyue actually had a faint guess in her heart, but she still chose to ask.

"Nothing, this servant just fell down, mr howe, let's go quickly, Madam is already waiting there."

Hearing Liu Xinyue's question, Cai Ju's nose turned sour, but she endured it and shook her head as she replied quickly.

In truth, the red and swollen face of Cai Ju was not the result of her falling to the ground, but rather, she had hurriedly ran over to He Jinlan's room. She only realised that Liu Xinyue had not followed her after entering.

Just like that, after He Jinlan found out, he gave her two slaps, and ordered her to bring Liu Xinyue back to him once more.

"Alright, let's go."

Liu Xinyue had only asked casually, and was not too concerned about whether Cai Ju really fell or not. Hearing the other party say that, he nodded and said.

When Cai Ju heard this, although he really wanted Liu Xinyue to continue asking, he knew that it was impossible. Thus, he could only restrain his emotions and lead the way with his head lowered.

After the two of them left, a person jumped down from a lush tree in the initially small garden. If Liu Xinyue was here, he would be shocked to discover that this person was the masked man who had teased her so many times.

"This little girl hasn't seen me for a few days. I don't know what she's been up to."

The masked man looked towards the direction Liu Xinyue left in, thought for a moment, then quietly followed, wanting to see what was going on.

"Now that she's dressed like a man, there's actually a maidservant confessing to her!"

As he walked, he recalled the scene of Cai Ju confessing to Liu Xinyue. The rage in the masked man's heart started to rise up.

"This little girl is my person, no one is allowed to snatch her, even if it's a woman!"

Just like that, the masked man followed Liu Xinyue and Cai Ju all the way to He Jinlan's room, then he climbed up to the roof and started peeping at them.

"Madam, mr howe is here."

Cai Ju reported from outside He Jinlan's room.

"Come in." Inside the room, the voice of the Xia Gu came out.

So, Cai Ju pushed open the door and let Liu Xinyue in, and then she closed the door and walked in.

"The mr howe is finally back." He Jinlan was currently walking by the side of the table. When he saw Liu Xinyue coming in, he immediately said with a smile, "This mr howe is not here, my heart is always empty."

"mr howe, please have a seat. Xia Gu, have a look at the tea!"

He Jinlan pointed to a chair in front of him and said to Liu Xinyue.

After that, Liu Xinyue did not decline and sat on the chair.

"I wonder where mr howe went to play yesterday?" After Liu Xinyue sat down, He Jinlan immediately smiled and asked.
