After Bailiheng finished speaking, he stood up.
Shi Qinghuan quickly stopped him, "Don't move, I'll send you in."
Shi Qinghuan gritted his teeth, picked up the clothes on the side, and walked over.
As soon as he crossed the screen, he closed his eyes and groped around, followed the position he had noted before, dropped his clothes and ran out.
That look was both embarrassing and cute.
Bailiheng originally just wanted to tease her, but now he was beaming with laughter.
But Shi Qinghuan couldn't do it. Standing outside, her cheeks were red, and even the sound of water became a different sound in her ears.
Bailiheng's figure in the bathtub could not help but appear in his mind.
Strong figure...
What are you thinking!
Shi Qinghuan secretly cursed himself for being useless, then simply walked to the window and opened it.
With the cool breeze blowing, I felt much better. Listening to the hustle and bustle of the market, I suppressed the sound of the water.
Taking Shi Qinghuan into consideration, Bailiheng quickly got out of the tub.
When he saw Shi Qinghuan standing by the window, he quickly walked over.
He put his hands around Shi Qinghuan's sides and reached out to close the window.
At first glance, it looked like he was holding Shi Qinghuan in his arms.
Shi Qinghuan subconsciously turned around and huddled in front of him. What caught her eye was his face so close at hand.
His black hair was scattered all over his head, giving him a different lazy and cold aura, and his slender figure was only wearing a thin undershirt, and his outline could be vaguely seen through the material.
Shi Qinghuan quickly averted his eyes and tried to slip under his hand, but was held back by his hand.
"How can I get a cool breeze when my hair is still wet?"
After saying that, Bailiheng took the brocade handkerchief from Shi Qinghuan's hand and covered her head.
Bailiheng helped her wipe her hair, which Shi Qinghuan didn't expect.
Moreover, his movements are gentle and his expression is even more so.
Feeling the warm rubbing, an inexplicable feeling emerged in Shi Qinghuan's heart.
My heart was beating very hard.
Feeling Shi Qinghuan's gaze, Bailiheng lowered his head, and their eyes met in mid-air.
The rotating light in each other's eyes fell into each other's eyes and turned into ripples.
The light slid in through the crack in the window and fell on Shi Qinghuan's body, bright and warm.
For a long time, Bailiheng ran his fingers through her hair, "Qing Huan, why don't you let me tie your hair?"
"You... know how to tie your hair?"
Bailiheng smiled slightly and pulled Shi Qinghuan to sit on one side.
Bailiheng gently lifted his hair from behind, one after another, while Shi Qinghuan was curious and expectant.
After another long time passed, Bailiheng stepped back with a smile, "Okay."
Shi Qinghuan couldn't wait to go to the bronze mirror. When he saw the full head of black hair, half of it was combed into a bun with a hosta, and half of it was intertwined with a hair tie to form a single braid at the side. The light blue color corresponded with the tassels, hanging on the one side.
It's absolutely beautiful and has a different kind of agility.
Shi Qinghuan was very surprised, but then he thought of something unusual.
He turned back to look at Baili Heng, "Your Excellency is so good at tying your hair. You must have tied up women's hair a lot when you were wandering around the Fireworks Willow Alley!"
As soon as these words came out, Bailiheng's originally proud expression froze.
He had forgotten this.
Bailiheng smiled sarcastically, "You know, that's not me. It's me who is standing guard on the battlefield. But there has never been any woman beside me."
"I do not believe."
"It's true, I will never lie to you!"
Bailiheng looked serious and looked firmly into Shi Qinghuan's eyes.
Shi Qinghuan was stunned for a moment, then turned his head.
Why does she care so much about whether there is a woman by his side?
His eyes turned and fell on Baili Heng's still wet hair. He turned around and took the brocade handkerchief to one side and handed it over.
"As for me, aren't you afraid of catching a cold?"
Looking at the brocade handkerchief, a smile flashed across Bailiheng's eyes, "It's a courtesy, please wipe it for me."
After saying that, he deliberately bent over, reaching the most comfortable height where Shi Qinghuan could raise his hand.
Seeing the smile on his face, Shi Qinghuan couldn't refuse, so she had to pick up the brocade handkerchief and help him wipe it carefully.
It has to be said that Shi Qinghuan has never had such a relationship.
Even Cheng Yangfeng back then could only hold hands at most.
Bailiheng is the first person to be so close to a man.
The room was very quiet except for Shi Qinghuan's soft voice.
Bailiheng just looked at her, his smile getting deeper and deeper.
Shi Qinghuan didn't react until his hair was dry.
"It's late at night and it's time to rest. Why are you tying up my hair?"
Bailiheng's smile contained a hint of slyness.
"Yeah, it's time to take a rest. It doesn't matter. I'll help you..."
Just like that, Bailiheng started to help her remove all the restraints. As soon as Shi Qinghuan lay on the bed, Bailiheng followed her.
"This is not a desert, it's not cold anymore!"
"Really? But I'm cold..."
"Bailiheng, you..."
Faced with the matter of sleeping on the same bed, Shi Qinghuan is actually not too resistant now.
After all, she seemed to be used to it, and more importantly, with Bailiheng by her side, she slept more peacefully.
Just like that, it was another good night's sleep. Early the next morning, Shi Qinghuan was tied up by Bailiheng himself. Then he bought a carriage and rushed all the way to Beicheng.
The journey was quite peaceful. After arriving in Beicheng, we directly visited Yue Mansion.
The Yue family is worthy of being the home of the richest man on the border, and their mansion is magnificent and luxurious.
Shi Qinghuan and Bailiheng also dressed up, pretending to be the sons of a rich family and came to visit.
Businessmen always welcome visitors, let alone distinguished guests.
The journey was smooth and he was invited into the mansion.
After waiting for a while, the current head of the Yue family, Yue Kui, came out to greet him.
After some courtesy, Bailiheng also reported his false identity. Although it was a false identity, it was well-founded, and Yue Kui's attitude became much better.
In this way, Bailiheng got straight to the point and took out the jade pendant.
"Master Yue, did this jade pendant come from you?"
Looking at the jade pendant, Yue Qu was a little unsure.
"To be honest, sir, our Yue family has handled so many treasures over the years that I have no impression of them at this moment."
"I don't know. Can the Yue family head help me check it out?"
"this..."
"Master, don't get me wrong. My grandfather likes this jade pendant very much. It's just that this jade pendant was originally a pair. Now there is only one. My grandfather always keeps it in mind. We came out this time just to find the other one and fulfill our filial piety." .”
After hearing this, Yue Qu's expression improved a little.
"Young Master's filial piety is touching, but are you sure this jade pendant came from my in-law's family?"
"Yes, from the information I found, it was the Yue Family's caravan that made the move to Jinfeng Tower eight years ago."
"Jinfeng Tower?"
"Yes, but the proprietress of Jinfeng Tower is really unkind and unwilling to reveal anything. Fortunately, I have other connections. Otherwise, I really wouldn't be able to find the head of the Yue family."
In one sentence, Zhao Yi's responsibility was erased.
After saying that, Bailiheng took out the banknote from his arms and put it aside, "I would also like to ask the Yue family master to help me check. It would be best if I can find another jade pendant. If not, can I have the origin and history of this jade pendant?" Other clues are also possible, these are what I have in mind."
With such a generous move, Yue Qu's face changed instantly.
"Since the young master said that the thing came from my in-law's family, I will go check it out. It just happened eight years ago, so I may not be able to find anything."
“Then there’s Patriarch Lao Yue!”
