She wrinkled her brows, pursed her lips, and said, "I will go and apologize to the Pavilion Master."
Shen Tang was already powerless to hold onto his forehead. He cursed inwardly, thinking that why did he care so much about this matter, and let the two of them mess around. At that time, he could just watch from the side.
Shen Qin bade farewell to Shen Tang and returned to her own room.
Before she pushed the door open and entered, she stopped in her tracks. She looked at the room next door with a bit of hesitation on her face.
She and Yan Xiao's room was right next to each other, she did not know whether it was coincidentally or was purposely arranged by Shen Tang, who was in charge of booking rooms, but when she thought about what Shen Tang had just said to her, she did not dare to think too much about it. Especially since Yan Xiao was right beside her, she did not dare to think too much about it.
She stood at the door hesitating for a moment, but still went over and knocked on Yan Xiao's door.
If he could speak quickly, he would have to beg the Pavilion Master for forgiveness. Otherwise, it wouldn't be good to implicate Brother Tang.
"Come in."
Shen Qin's heart tightened. After a while, she took a deep breath, gathered her courage, and pushed the door open as she walked in.
"Pavilion Master."
Yan Xiao's original focus was only on the information in his hands, upon hearing this hesitant voice, he was shocked, and a trace of happiness unconsciously flashed past his eyes.
However, when he turned his head back, the joy had disappeared and was replaced with a clear and cold expression.
"Why is it you?"
He opened his mouth to speak, suppressing the joy in his heart that was on the verge of losing control.
Shen Qin was startled, the Pavilion Master was truly angry now. When she knocked on the door earlier, she did not tell to scram, probably because she did not know that the person who knocked the door was her.
Indeed, Yan Xiao didn't know that she was the one who knocked on the door. Of course, he didn't know that his fake words that sounded plain made her have so many thoughts.
Seeing her frown as she stood there without saying a word, Yan Xiao's heart quivered down, and he asked: "You're looking for me for something?"
's current indifferent attitude caused Shen Qin's heart to sink. She knew that was truly angry, and after hesitating for a bit, she walked up and said: "This subordinate has come to seek forgiveness."
"plead guilty?"
Yan Yuan raised his brows, he did not understand why she would come to beg for punishment.
But from Shen Qin's perspective, his appearance had turned into one of ridicule.
She pursed her lips in discomfort and lowered her voice by a bit, "Subordinate should not be rude to Miss Qin. May Pavilion Master please forgive me."
Hearing Shen Qin's words, Yan Xiao finally realized what she meant.
She felt that the first time she spoke to Qin Sang, she was afraid that she would be angry so she came to beg for forgiveness?
The current Yan Xiao didn't know whether to laugh or to be angry, but in her eyes, was he actually so protective of Qin Sang?
Seeing his cold face and not saying a word, Shen Qin was even more sure that he was angry at her for being rude to Qin Sang. Seeing that he had been staring at her without saying a word, her heart became heavy again.
In the room, the silent atmosphere was so stifling that it made people feel uncomfortable. Shen Qin did not look at Yan Xiao, but lowered his head even more, "This subordinate was wrong, I beg Pavilion Master to forgive me."
She repeated her pleadings, but Yan Xiao's silence still remained in response.
Shen Qin's hands, which were hanging by her side, loosened and tightened. Her mood also became even more depressed and depressed.
After a while, Yan Xiao slowly spoke out. "What is your relationship with Shen Tang?"
Shen Qin was startled, she raised her head, flabbergasted by the topic that Yan Xiao suddenly brought up. Shouldn't the pavilion master investigate her insolence towards Miss Qin? Why did she have to ask about his relationship with Shen Tang?
Unable to understand, Shen Qin replied truthfully: "This subordinate has the friendship of a colleague with Brother Shen Tang, and the affection of a brother and sister."
Hearing her reply, Yan Xiao squinted his eyes, "This is the relationship, there is nothing else?"
Unbeknownst to him, when he asked her this question, his hand, hidden in the shadows, was clenched into a fist.
"What else?"
Shen Qin looked at Yan Xiao blankly. She did not understand what the other relationship was?
He carefully thought about what else he had with Shen Tang other than the friendship between brothers and sisters.
She looked at Yan Xiao confusedly, unable to answer for a while.
However, when Yan Xiao saw her current appearance, the tight lines on his face unconsciously softened a bit. There was even a hint of a smile in his eyes.
"I'm fine."
He suddenly stood up and walked to the front of Shen Qin. The distance between the two of them was only 10 centimeters.
Shen Qin felt that the big and sturdy body was right in front of her, as though a black shadow had shrouded her, and she was unable to dodge it.
Twisting her brows, she looked at Yan Xiao uncomfortably and called out softly, "Pavilion Master."
She didn't know what the pavilion master was talking about, but at such a close distance, her ears couldn't help but feel hot.
To her, this distance was far too unsafe. She was afraid that she would lose control and do something inappropriate to the Pavilion Master.
Seeing Yan Xiao's hand suddenly raise, gently lifting the hair that was falling down from her temples to fall behind her ears, this intimate action caused Shen Qin to jump in fright. Instinctively, she retreated a few steps back, looking at Yan Xiao in shock and panic.
Actually, this was not the first time Yan Xiao did something so intimate. Back then, it was precisely to fool her father, and he was even trying to get close to her in front of his father, to the point that he almost scared his father to death.
It was also because of this that her father specifically asked her uncle about the Pavilion Master's past, allowing her to know about the relationship between the Pavilion Master and Qin Sang.
When he thought of Qin Sang, Shen Qin's previous panic immediately receded, and a bit of annoyance appeared in her heart. Her brows couldn't help but knit together, "Pavilion Master toying with this subordinate, it's really too boring.
Her voice was slightly cold, and the anger in her voice had clearly increased by a lot.
Yan Xiao frowned, but quickly, he suppressed the displeasure in his heart, and patiently asked: What do you think my relationship with Qin Sang is?
"Of course, it's Lang You. This concubine intends to meet again after a long time, and it's even better than getting married."
Shen Qin pursed her lips. When she finished speaking, his voice had become lower and lower, but Yan Xiao was still able to clearly hear it. The originally gentle lines on his face had turned cold and hard again.
Initially, he had wanted to scold her with a few words of nonsense, but he thought that his attitude towards Qin Sang would definitely cause misunderstanding, so he forcefully retracted his words of scolding.
In order to stay by his side, Qin Sang had put in all her effort to remind him of the past of the two people. In her opinion, those past experiences were all because she was close to him, but she did not know that to him, she was merely reminding him of her past stupidity.
Seeing that Yan Xiao did not say anything, she also did not speak anymore. Yan Xiao's silence, in her opinion, was equivalent to tacitly agreeing to her guess. Shen Qin felt very uncomfortable, and did not want to discuss his private matters with him anymore.
