That day Chu Xi was called to qiansha League by Bai Wuchen again.
"Master, I'm coming." Chu Xi pushes the door and walks into the laboratory.
"Yes." Bai Wuchen answered and immediately said, "Xi'er, come here."
Chu Xi stepped up to him and asked, "what's the matter?"
"I have something to deal with. Help me watch the changes of this herb. After three hours, tell me whether there is any change or not."
Chu Xi nodded, "OK, I know."
At this time, Bai Wuchen's mobile phone rings. It is Bai Liyi's phone. He immediately answers: "Hey, OK, go out right away."
"Shifu, are you leaving the imperial capital?" Chu Xi asked.
"Yes, I'll go to city a and come back in the evening. You don't have to watch here all the time. You can go out and play with them. Just come back on time and have a look."
"I'm fine." Chu Xi smiled: "I am here to observe and report to Shifu at any time."
Bai Wuchen smiled and said, "it's hard for you."
Chu Xi smiled and said, "it's not hard. Master, be careful on your way."
After Bai Wuchen left, Chu Xi sat at the experimental table and watched the change of a herb soaked in the potion.
After a while, Fang Zui came in.
"Xi'er! Why are you alone? Where is your master?"
"Shifu has something to do. Let me help him watch the experiment."
"I went to city A. when?"
"Well..." Chu Xi looked down at the time on his mobile phone and replied, "it's been an hour since I left. Don't you know? Isn't it the task of the league?"
"No, I guess I ran away with Bai Liyi."
Chu Xi: "......"
That's true, but she didn't say.
A moment later, Lei Ming pushed the door in again, looked at them and said in surprise: "hmm? Why are you two here? Clean?"
Fang Zui: "I went on a date and left my apprentice here as a drudge."
"Ah?"
Chu Xi immediately said, "no, master, he left only when he had something serious to do."
Although he doesn't know what Bai Wuchen and Bai Liyi are doing in city a, Chu Xi is sure that they are not going on a date. Bai Wuchen can't call her to watch the experiment because he wants to date. He must have something urgent to deal with.
Looking at the girl, Lei Ming smiled and suddenly said, "Xi'er, you often come to qiansha League, and you are a clean disciple. Why don't you join us?"
Chu Xi scratched his hair and said with a smile, "how can I do it? My skill is too bad compared with yours."
Lei Ming: "it's OK. Your master is even worse."
Chu Xi: "......"
Fang Zui said, "well, Xi'er is still a student. At present, we should focus on our studies. As for what we will do in the future, we should consider carefully."
Chu Xi nodded: "HMM."
In the evening, Chu Xi returned to the hot spring villa.
"Miss Xi, you are back." Aunt Zhou smiled.
"Well, aunt Zhou, is my brother back?" Chu Xi asked as she walked into the room.
"Sir has come back. He is in the study with President Sheng."
"Sheng Mingyu! Is he there too?"
"Yes, I am."
"Oh."
Chu Xi then went to the study and stood at the door. She didn't go in. Instead, her eyes turned and lay on the door, listening to what they were saying.
However, the sound insulation of the door panel was so good that she didn't hear anything.
After a short pause, she was about to knock at the door when the serious voice of the man in the study suddenly rang out: "who is outside!"
Chu Xi: "......"
Then the door opened and Chu Feng appeared at the door with a serious face.
Chu Xi whispered awkwardly, "it's me."
“..........”
Seeing it was her, Chu Feng's face softened instantly and asked softly, "what are you doing standing at the door? I thought it was someone eavesdropping."
In the study, Sheng Mingyu leaned lazily against the sofa and joked: "Xi'er, I didn't expect you to have a hobby of eavesdropping? You don't doubt what I have with Chu Feng?"
Chu Xi: "......"
Sheng Mingyu said, "don't worry, we are absolutely innocent."
Chu Xi was full of black lines, and then said, "I'm just thinking about whether knocking on the door will disturb you. If you're talking about business, I'll go upstairs."
"Come in, and you can listen to the business." Chu Feng took her into the study.
"Why is your face still red?" Sheng Mingyu asked with a smile.
Chu Xi: "I... I'm hot, can't I?"
"Yes, of course." Sheng Mingyu turned to Chu Feng and said, "are you still chatting? Do you want me to make room for you two? I always think I'm a little redundant now."
Chu Feng glanced at him: "it's a bit."
Sheng Mingyu chuckled: "if you say so, I won't go."
Chu Feng stopped joking with him, and then said in a straight voice, "come on, stop it. Tell me your plan."
Sheng Mingyu looked at Chu Xi and then at Chu Feng: "are you sure you want me to say it now? Do you want her to listen?"
Hearing the speech, Chu Xi was stunned and immediately asked, "what do you mean?"
