"Miss Qin, where are you going?"
Xiao Wu saw her move and immediately came out to stop her, "There might be wind and snow tonight. It's very dangerous for you to go out at this time."
"Xiao Wu, I'll just go to the door and have a look. I won't delay anything."
"No!" Xiao Wu said firmly, "If you really want to go out, I will accompany you."
Qin Lian hesitated for a moment, thinking that she couldn't compete with Xiao Wu, so she nodded and agreed.
The two of them put on their cloaks and went to the door of the house. The street was dark and almost no one was passing by. Only two red lanterns hung above the door, swaying in the cold wind.
Qin Lian looked towards the dim street several times, but she still didn't see Chu Yan and the others, and she became even more angry.
"Miss Qin, let's go back. The wind and snow seem to be getting stronger again. If you want to wait for Mr. Xiao and the others, you don't have to wait anymore. Mr. Xiao and the others will not come back at this time."
Xiao Wu shook the white snow off his shoulders and pulled Qin Lian to a place beside the channel that could block the wind.
Without the wind and snow, Qin Lian felt colder. A lot of snow was blown on her body. There was no other way to wait like this, so she had to follow Xiao Wu back.
On the way back, she held back her anger and asked, "Xiao Wu, do you know where Brother Chu and the others have gone?"
"Mr. Chu and Mr. Xiao should be together, but I can't ask whether Mr. Xiao is there, so I don't know where they are."
Back in the house, Xiao Wu poured her hot tea and closed the door and windows to block the wind and snow outside.
Seeing that Qin Lian's face was still angry, Xiao Wu guessed something and asked, "Miss Qin, do you want to go to Mr. Xiao?"
"I just wanted to go take a look!"
Qin Lian felt a surge of anger in her heart. She didn't expect that Chu Yan wouldn't even come back for such an important day.
Xiao Wu didn't say much and asked her to rest early after she finished drinking the hot tea.
Qin Lian also knew that Xiao Wu was from Xiao Yun's side. Even if he really knew something, he wouldn't tell her. She might as well go find it herself.
Su Liuye wanted to study dishes with Mr. Lu, and she was the most available person.
Early the next morning, Qin Lian said she would help Uncle Zhou go shopping for groceries. During this time, she went to the government office in the capital to see if Xiao Yun would be here.
But the capital was much bigger than the town. She hesitated for a long time before she dared to walk to the gate and ask the yamen on duty about Xiao Yun.
But none of the government officials knew who she was talking about. Qin Lian was about to go back and ask Xiao Wu again when a carriage stopped on the street.
This carriage is very gorgeous, and it is inlaid with sparkling gems, which seem to be agate and pearls.
Qin Lian had never seen such a gorgeous style before. She couldn't help but stop and look at it, marveling at how wealthy the people in the capital were!
Just as he was thinking about it, the curtain of the carriage was pushed open, and the first person to get out was a woman wearing a red cloak. Her black hair was tied up, revealing a bright and beautiful face.
The woman jumped to the ground with the help of the maid, and looked around with a pair of beautiful eyes with novelty, "I haven't been here for a long time, and it feels quite fresh to come here again."
"Just have fun! I asked you to go back early. If you don't go back, you have to come with us. We have things to do before we come here."
The second person who got off the carriage was a man wearing a crescent-colored robe. Qin Lian immediately recognized the man's voice. It was Xiao Yun!
Her eyes lit up, and she immediately wanted to go forward and ask Xiao Yun about Chu Yan's whereabouts. However, the next second, the curtain of the carriage was pushed open again, and a man wearing a dark blue robe got out of the carriage.
As soon as the man got out of the car, many girls passing by couldn't help but make low calls and stared directly at the cold man.
It's Chu Yan!
Qin Lian's eyes widened, she didn't expect to meet Chu Yan here!
"I didn't come here with you! I came here with Third Brother!"
Before Qin Lian could make any move, the woman in red robe directly grabbed Chu Yan's hand and said coquettishly to Xiao Yun, "Who told you to leave me behind so often? I must follow you this time. Don't even think about getting rid of me." I!"
"Don't be willful, we really have something to do." Chu Yan's tone was helpless, but his expression was doting that Qin Lian had never seen before. He seemed to be very familiar with the woman next to him, even more so than Su Liuye.
What's happening here? !
Qin Lian's face darkened and she stood watching.
Not knowing what the woman said to him, Chu Yan shook his head helplessly and let the woman grab his arm and lead her into the Yamen.
"That man just now was so handsome!"
"Yes, but he is already married, right? The woman next to him should be his wife. The relationship between the two of them is so good, it is really enviable."
"It looks like he belongs to a wealthy family. I don't know which one in the capital he is. He is so handsome and elegant. I'm afraid he doesn't come from the palace, right?"
"In what palace, how can you meet people in the palace so easily?"
"I'm talking nonsense too."
Several women not far away were talking playfully.
Listening to their words, Qin Lian felt even more uncomfortable. It is not difficult to tell from the carriage that the two people next to Chu Yan are either rich or noble. Needless to say, Xiao Yun, the red-robed woman next to him does not look like ordinary people at first glance.
Why is Chu Yan with these people? Moreover, the robe that Chu Yan was wearing just now seemed to be expensive. His whole person seemed to have changed, his temperament was high, and his every move was full of the aura of a superior.
She had never seen Chu Yan like this before.
Qin Lian became more and more angry as she thought about it. Is this the reason why Chu Yan didn't come back to find Su Liuye? He didn't have time to come back, but he was accompanied by a bright-looking woman. The two of them were so close on the street, and they simply didn't take Su Liuye into consideration at all.
Anger welling up in her heart, Qin Lian immediately walked towards the house, wanting to tell Su Liuye about this, so that Su Liuye should stop waiting for Chu Yan and just make peace with her!
Anyway, she had seen too many injustices to women in Qinghe Village. Now that Su Liuye was rich and capable, why did she have to wait for a man at home?
"Miss Qin!"
On the way, suddenly a voice of surprise came into my ears.
Qin Lian subconsciously stopped and looked at the source of the sound, only to see a familiar-looking man walking from the opposite street holding large and small bags.
"Miss Qin, it's really you! You really came to the capital. I even told the young master about it that day!"
"you……"
Looking at it like this, she remembered who this man was.
Aren't these the men around Liu Yuan? "Why are you here too?"
Qin Lian was immediately angry. Meeting Liu Yuan's people here, does it mean...
"Miss Qin, our young master has come to the capital for business, but I haven't seen you in the past few days."
