Yan Xiao's gaze turned cold as a trace of indescribable displeasure flashed past his eyes.
He looked at Wang Xuan Ling, his heart sinking as he asked: "Where is Young Noble Wang going?"
Yan Xiao's voice made Wang Xuan Ling abruptly withdraw his gaze from Shen Qin's face. Turning to Yan Xiao, he said, "Xuan Ling has just returned from the Han Forest Academy.
He saw that Yan Xiao's expression was not very happy, and stealthily glanced at Shen Qin beside Yan Xiao, as if he had understood something.
A strange light flashed in the depths of his eyes, and then, he said to Yan Xiao: "Xuan Ling will not disturb the two of you, farewell."
"Take care."
When Wang Xuan Ling walked past Shen Qin, he looked at him again before finally leaving.
After feeling that Wang Xuan Ling had gone far, Shen Qin finally relaxed her heart. She did not expect that after so long, she was still so nervous that she did not even dare to make a sound when facing Wang Xuan Ling.
"Wang Xuan Ling is at the Han Lin Courtyard?"
Yan Xiao's low voice sounded, and within the low voice, there was a trace of displeasure.
Shen Qin did not sense her question. Hearing him ask such a question, she responded, "Mn, he started to walk within the Han Lin Courtyard last year."
"Humph!" You know a lot about him. "
Yan Xiao's cold voice sounded beside her ears, carrying a clear displeasure within it, causing Shen Qin to be shocked for a moment.
She looked up at Yan Xiao in shock, not understanding why her master was suddenly so unhappy.
However, she still explained very naturally, "Yes, I heard my uncle mention it a few times."
Yan Xiao knew that the uncle that Shen Qin was talking about was the Han Lin Academy's Grand Scholar, Shen Qian.
His eyes stared at Shen Qin's face for a while, then suddenly thought of something and said: "Qin Er, what do you think about this king going to Shen Mansion to propose?"
"Sure."
Before she could react, she casually agreed. As long as it was her master's suggestion, she would not oppose it.
But in the next second, when she reacted, she was so shocked that she nearly bit off her tongue. Her eyes were wide open as she looked at Yan Xiao in shock. Pavilion Master, what did you say? "
The smile that was just spreading across Yan Xiao's face, slowly disappeared.
[Why is this girl answering me so straightforwardly? She doesn't even know how to react.]
Yan Xiao also could not differentiate what he was thinking at the moment, and actually repeated his thought with a naughty tone, "Let me say, how about I go to Shen Mansion to propose?"
This time, Shen Qin completely understood. This guy … Did he have a grudge with her father?
As she thought of this in her heart, she subconsciously asked, "Pavilion Master, are you going against my father?"
He had only given her a jade hairpin and even ordered her not to take it off. Now he was going to go to her house with bad intentions and propose marriage?
Did this really scare her father to the point of fainting?
Yan Xiao felt a headache when he heard Shen Qin's silly question.
Alright, he was so impulsive that he wanted to propose marriage. Even this little girl whom he taught by himself felt that he was holding back her father?
"This King wants to get married, is that not okay?"
His two younger brothers already had wives. He was too old, so he couldn't get married?
Yes, yes, yes, but you can't joke with me. Hey, aren't you afraid of me taking it seriously?
"Or do you despise This King for being too old?"
"No, no."
Shen Qin was dizzy. Had the pavilion master been drugged and her personality changed? Why was she changing the topic more and more?
She even felt that the Pavilion Master was always teasing her.
"So you have someone you love?"
Yan Xiao raised his eyebrows. There was no other expression on his face, nor was there any sign of joy or anger. Only, in the next second, the glint in his eyes deepened by a bit. "Wang Xuan Ling?"
"…"
Shen Qin did not speak, she had never dared to lie in front of Master.
She carefully looked at Yan Xiao and did not answer in silence.
And her reaction, in Yan Xiao's eyes, was already considered to be tacit approval. In his heart, a burst of anger suddenly rose.
"Alright, you can go back first. I have something to discuss with you."
As he said that, he waved towards Shen Qin and turned to leave. His back carried a trace of anger.
Shen Qin did not notice Yan Xiao's anger at the moment. Since her master did not give his instructions, she would naturally not go up to ask for a mission, especially since this mission was related to his good friends. She was even more unwilling to accept it, but luckily her master did not force her to accept this mission.
Just thinking about the question he asked her just now, Shen Qin frowned again in distress.
She likes Wang Xuan Ling?
If it was before she went to Chengyang County, she would have been able to answer with certainty, but after going to Chengyang County, and that time meeting the Pavilion Master, she found that her heart had started to become restless again.
Some of the thoughts that she had buried deep in her heart and thought she would never bring up again began to stir.
Now, even she didn't know who she liked.
She suddenly had the thought that she was probably a woman with an aquamarine personality, and this thought scared her.
However, there was one thing that she was very clear about. That was …
Her master was definitely not someone she could misunderstand. Therefore, no matter what ambiguous words her master said, in her opinion, it was just a sudden change in personality. He just wanted to tease her.
Yan Xiao originally wanted Shen Qin to keep an eye on him, but after seeing Shen Qin, he completely stopped.
Since the Kaiser knew that he had sent people to monitor Yun Jiao Rong, how could he let Qin Er take the risk?
Yan Xiao thought, he still had to find a suitable person to stare at Yun Jiao Rong, but in that moment, he could not think of anything.
Just as Yan Xiao had yet to think of a suitable candidate, Yun Jiao Rong also heaved a sigh of relief after not seeing her again for a long time.
He thought that after what Liu Qian Xun told her to do last time, he wouldn't force her anymore.
In these past few days, she had always been conflicted. She hoped that her brother would be able to defeat Yan Shuo and take revenge for their Mo Family. She also hoped that Yan Shuo would be safe and not be tricked by her brother.
After muddleheaded for a while, Liu Qian Xun did not reappear, and she did not hear anything related to the Shen Ji Hall from Yan Shuo's mouth either. Her heart, had finally relaxed for the moment.
On this day, while Yan Shuo was in the midst of reviewing the reports in the imperial study, Yun Jiao Rong went to the imperial garden by himself.
In these past few days, she clearly felt that her body's condition was a bit worse, but what was strange was that the number of times she vomited blood decreased.
On one hand, she felt that she had let Yan Shuo down, and on the other hand, she was afraid that Yan Shuo would see through her.
