C1025 1024 didn't misunderstand the Pavilion Master's meaning

Just as she was about to leave, Yan Xiao suddenly called for her: "Qin Er."

This was not the first time Yan Xiao had called her that, but hearing this, Shen Qin felt extremely sad.

After taking a deep breath, she suppressed the bitterness in her nose, lowered her eyes, and responded in a low voice, "I am here."

The word "subordinate" made the identities of the two people very clear. Yan Xiao was angry in his heart, but on the surface, he was still calm as he said, "Do you still remember that I told you before that I was going to propose to your father?"

The more she wanted to differentiate between the two of them, the more he wanted to change "This King" to "I" to get closer to her.

Shen Qin heard and raised her head to look at him in shock. Her gaze fell upon the black eyes that were like a deep pool of water and looked at him without smiling, causing Shen Qin to be unable to differentiate between whether she was teasing her or telling the truth.

Shen Qin instinctively chose the former, and pursed her lips, saying in a deep voice: "This subordinate remembers that the Prince was angry that his father despised you because of your age, and wanted to scare him."

Hearing this, Yan Xiao was slightly annoyed, he knew that she had thought of this at the beginning.

He did not bother with her and continued: "After Yizhou's matter is over, I will propose marriage to your father. How about it?"

Shen Qin's hand, which was hanging by her side, trembled, but her expression was one of indifference. Looking at her appearance, she did not take Yan Xiao's words to heart at all, but only faintly smiled and said: "Pavilion Master, don't be like this.

Your subordinate can't resist this sort of flirting with me …

did not say these words, but his heart felt a little more bitter.

Seeing her calm expression, Yan Xiao's heart chilled a bit. After that, he heard a sigh from him, and said: "Are you like your father, detesting me because I'm old?"

Shen Qin was startled, and then immediately shook her head. "Pavilion Master is indeed at a very good age, and is also such a noble and elegant man, why would this subordinate dislike you at such an age?"

's words were true. A thirty year old Yan Xiao had the calmness and restraint that a youth lacked, was tall and handsome, and had an extraordinary temperament. Forget about the fact that they were only ten years behind, even if they were twenty years below, no one would take him for an old man.

Hearing Shen Qin's praises, although Yan Xiao did not know if he was careless, at the very least, after hearing it, his depressed mood improved a lot.

It could be seen that she still acted as if it had nothing to do with her, and she still let out a long sigh.

Initially, he had wanted to speak a little more with her, but he knew that this was not the time yet. The matters at Yizhou were the most important.

He was tired of all these roundabout and seemingly fake actions.

In the past, in order to test her and to reassure her, he had been afraid that the moment he acted impulsively, he would frighten her.

He was afraid of scaring her, but he was even more afraid of her rejecting his distant indifference. She did not understand his thoughts, and no matter how hard he tried to probe, to her, it was merely the master toying with her subordinates.

Thinking about it this way, he became even more determined to quickly settle the matters of the Yizhou. Like she had said, a girl her age should already be out on the streets, he couldn't keep delaying her.

He even had a grandnephew, but he was still alone in this world. It was about time for him to get married and have children.

Thinking about the ninth brother and his wife, Yan Xiao's heart grew more hopeful, the lines on his face also became gentler.

Shen Qin heard him seemingly laughing in a good mood, she looked up at him in confusion, and realised that she did not hear wrong, the pavilion master was smiling, her expression was undisguised gentleness, as though she had thought of something beautiful.

Shen Qin thought that it should be related to Qin Sang, she naturally did not dare to think about it.

"Alright, you should head back first. Tomorrow, we will set out for the Yizhou."

As his mood had improved greatly, Yan Xiao's tone became lighter, but after hearing it, Shen Qin's mood became even more downcast.

"This subordinate will take his leave."

After he finished speaking, he turned around and walked out, but was stopped by Yan Xiao, "Wait."

Shen Qin turned her head to look at him, her expression still indifferent, "Is there anything else that Pavilion Master needs?"

Yan Xiao walked in front of her, bent down slightly, and pulled their gazes away, saying: "If Qin Sang said something that displeased you, you felt that you wouldn't be able to continue listening, so you just block him off and go back."

Hearing this, the astonishment in Shen Qin's eyes became obvious. What Pavilion Master meant was, previously, she was being rude to Miss Qin, so does Pavilion Master not blame her?

In fact …

What Pavilion Master means is that in the future, if he doesn't like Miss Qin, he can do so whenever he wants to take revenge. He doesn't need to worry about him?

Shen Qin thought that she did not misunderstand the Pavilion Master's meaning, right?

But, wasn't Miss Qin a treasure in her heart? Did the pavilion master not intend to protect her?

Although Shen Qin knew that she did not like Qin Sang, especially when she mentioned her past with the pavilion master in front of him, it was as if she was showing off to him.

It was fine if she did it once or twice, but if she had to endure it, she naturally wouldn't feel wronged.

As a result, when she heard Yan Xiao's words, Shen Qin actually felt a little happy in her heart. In order to confirm that Yan Xiao was not lying to her, she looked at Yan Xiao and asked seriously: "Pavilion Master, do you mean that when your subordinate doesn't like her, you can give her face?"

She asked this with a serious face, without even the slightest hint of a joke. She looked like a child who wanted to bully other children but was afraid of the parents' complaints and wanted to get permission from the parents.

Yan Xiao was tickled by her actions. He subconsciously reached out and caressed her hair, nodding his head, "Right, if you find her unpleasing to the eye, then you can do anything you want."

After receiving Yan Xiao's affirmative answer, when Shen Qin came out of his room, she was in a much better mood.

Although she wouldn't just throw Qin Sang's face every now and then, at the very least, when Qin Sang really made her unable to endure it any longer, she wouldn't have to hold it in.

The next day, Yan Xiao and the rest set out for Yizhou. Previously, they were delayed a bit due to Qin Sang's injury, so in these two days, they purposely increased their speed and reached the borders of Yizhou in a short period of time.

"Master, there's news from Qin Sang's side. Yan Xiao has already left her by her side, they have entered Yizhou City."

In the same remote and desolate wooden house, the black clothed man stood in front of the well-dressed man and reported in a low voice.

"Mn, send down the order, let Qin Sang continue to keep an eye on him. If he has any news, report it later."

"Yes."

The man in black answered, but didn't leave immediately. She looked at the man in embroidered clothes, wanting to say something but hesitating.
