At sunset.
Liu Yidou walked out of Liu Yuanyuan's room with a satisfied look on his face.
He originally planned to return to the cabinet and inquire about the news about the general manager Cao Ying.
Little did he know that he had just crossed the threshold.
In front of him, a familiar figure appeared.
"Ling'er, why are you here again?"
"What's for this time?"
Zhou Ling walked up to Liu Yidou with a childish look on his face, lowering his head and saying nothing.
Liu Yidou asked, and the next second, he was slightly stunned.
When Zhou Ling raised his head, he actually saw the child's red and swollen eyes.
"Ling'er, tell Brother Yidou who bullied you?"
"Don't worry, Brother Yidou will avenge you!"
"Brother Yidou, no one is bullying Ling'er, don't worry." Seeing Liu Yidou's face, his expression suddenly turned cold, and Zhou Ling hurriedly explained.
"It's mother. Mother said that she wants me to take Brother Yidou to see her. Mother has something to discuss with you and asks you to go there alone."
Faced with this statement, Liu Yidou finally felt relieved.
In his mind, the Zhou Ling in front of him represented the remaining innocence in his heart.
Liu Yidou will never allow anyone to undermine him. Even if he is the chief manager, as long as he dares to bully Zhou Ling, Liu Yidou must seek an explanation even if he risks his life.
Now that Zhou Ling was fine, Liu Yidou immediately relaxed a lot. However, facing Zhou Ling's statement, Liu Yidou couldn't help but feel a little doubtful.
"Ling'er, did your mother say anything? What do you want from me?"
Thinking of the system prompts before, Liu Yidou only thought that the person coming was evil.
He wanted to refuse, but he didn't expect that as soon as his words fell, Ling'er stepped forward and took his hand.
"Brother Yidou, you must promise me this time!"
"You must go with me to see your mother, otherwise, I will ignore you from now on."
"Okay, okay, Linger, be good, I'll go with you!" Seeing Zhou Ling acting like a baby, Liu Yidou felt like his bones were melting.
At the moment, he had no choice but to nod his head, and finally agreed with Zhou Ling's statement.
…
Five minutes later, Liu Yidou followed Zhou Ling to the courtyard where Qiao Qiao was.
But what he didn't expect was that the cold-faced woman was nowhere to be seen in the courtyard.
"Ling'er, where is your mother?"
Unlike Qiao Qiao, Liu Yidou knelt down and asked Zhou Ling. Unexpectedly, the little girl pointed towards the door.
"Mother said, when you come, go in directly."
What's the meaning?
Hearing this statement, Liu Yidou frowned slightly.
I vaguely noticed something was wrong.
Could it be that the empress had some evil intentions towards me?
Seeing that I haven't taken any action for such a long time, I simply gave up.
Want to kill people and silence them?
"Ling'er, Brother Yidou asked you, how do I usually treat you?" In order to prevent accidents from happening, Liu Yidou felt it was necessary to find out first.
At that moment, he slowly squatted down and pinched Ling'er's cheek.
Faced with such a question, Ling'er's face showed some confusion: "Brother Yidou, I... my mother said, just let you in. As for what to do, Ling'er really doesn't know!"
Although the girl is simple-minded, she is also smart and intelligent despite being exposed to the Bronze Bird Tower since she was a child.
Just listening to Liu Yidou's words, I already thought of what he wanted to express.
Seeing that the girl didn't seem to be lying, Liu Yidou nodded.
He stood up slowly and looked towards the room where Qiao Qiao was.
At this moment, the small attic became extremely deep in Liu Yidou's eyes, as if it contained endless crises.
"I still don't believe it! What can you do to me today?"
After hesitating for a long time, Liu Yidou hesitated, and finally walked slowly towards the attic.
Inside the attic, it was pitch black.
The surrounding area was empty, and Qiao Qiao himself was nowhere to be seen.
"What's the meaning?"
Facing such a scene, Liu Yidou frowned slightly and murmured.
Unexpectedly, the moment he finished speaking, a cold voice sounded in his ears.
"Boy, let me ask you one last time, can you really help me break the seal and leave here at the same time?"
"Mother, I have repeated this many times!"
Faced with such a repeated topic, Liu Yidou frowned and said his previous answer again: "I am not 100% sure about this matter, but I promise to try my best."
"Besides, I already have some clues. I will give you an answer within three days at most."
"I'm afraid your thoughts may not be that simple, right?"
The moment Liu Yidou finished speaking, a mocking voice suddenly came from deep in the room.
Then, a candlelight slowly lit up.
It illuminates the surroundings and reflects Qiao Qiao's delicate face.
At this moment, Qiao Qiao looked directly at Liu Yidou with cold eyes.
There was no expression in his pupils.
Faced with this appearance, Liu Yidou's heart thumped.
What kind of fun is this?
"Mother, I don't know what you mean by this?"
"What do you mean? Do you need me to say more?"
Qiao Qiao said coldly, but unexpectedly stood up the next second.
Just when Liu Yidou thought that Qiao Qiao wanted to do something to him.
Unexpectedly, the other party slowly took off his clothes.
But in the blink of an eye, Qiao Qiao was already naked, standing in the candlelight, adding a bit of hazy beauty.
"Empress, what are you doing?"
Faced with Qiao Qiao's reaction, Liu Yidou was startled and turned around quickly, exclaiming at the same time.
"Isn't this what you want?"
Qiao Qiao's voice was a little cold, but at this moment, it stirred Liu Yidou's heart.
"Aren't you just thinking about how to possess me?"
"I'm here now, but I don't know what you are capable of?"
"In the final analysis, you are just a eunuch. Even if you have the intention, you may not be able to do it, right?"
Faced with such ridicule, Liu Yidou felt a little confused.
When did I have this little thought?
He admitted that Qiao Qiao's charm was irresistible.
But the reason why he chose to help Qiao Qiao was more for Zhou Ling, and also for himself.
"My dear, I admit, you are beautiful!"
At this moment, Liu Yidou lowered his tone and felt anger rising in his heart.
He never expected that his sincerity would end up being met with such suspicion.
Liu Yidou felt lost, and this loss quickly turned into anger.
"Everything I do is for Zhou Ling's sake. If it weren't for Zhou Ling, even if you die, I won't look at you twice."
"I don't care what you think, but I still say the same thing...I will give you an answer in three days."
"You'd better get dressed and coax Zhou Ling."
Faced with the temptation that was right in front of him, Liu Yidou chose to give up.
The moment he finished speaking, he opened the door without stopping and walked away.
"you……"
Seeing Liu Yidou's back disappear from sight, Qiao Qiao's pupils were full of confusion.
Could it be that I wrongly blamed this guy?
If he can resist his own charm, is he really a gentleman?
