Qing Lingyi reacted quickly, raised her arms, hugged Biwei and stepped back to make way.
The waiter who led them in was named Xu. He didn't avoid or give in. Instead, he looked stern and kicked the man back.
"How dare you, a blind thing, rush into a noble person!"
The man fell to the ground on his back, his messy hair spread out.
Qing Lingyi looked around and saw that this was a man, not very old, with a large burn on the left side of his face.
He must have been beaten, his face was bruised and swollen, and there was blood under his nose.
She frowned slightly.
The man noticed her gaze and turned over in a hurry.
Several guys who were chasing him came over and punched and kicked him.
One of them came with a smile on his face and said: "Brother Xu, please don't blame me! We bought this lame man last month. Although he was lame, he was very strong, so we thought we could use it. A few days ago Everything is fine, but for some reason today, he actually tried to escape while we were unprepared. We caught him and beat him up, thinking he was being honest, but unexpectedly he tried to run away again."
Xu Lian said sternly: "I don't care what happened to you, or what happened to this lame man, but there is one thing."
He motioned to Qing Lingyi and Bi Wei, "These two are distinguished guests of Tianxing Tower. No one dares to offend. If you really bumped into an honored guest just now, let alone Shopkeeper Xi, even I will definitely not be able to spare you!"
"Brother Xu, calm down!"
The man sweated coldly and turned to Qing Lingyi and Bi Wei, "My lord, please forgive me! We will keep a close eye on it so that nothing like this happens again!"
Qing Lingyi was looking over there and replied: "It's not in the way."
The man relaxed.
Qing Lingyi said again: "Tell them to stop quickly, but don't cause any deaths here."
From what she said, she didn't intend to pursue the case.
The man beamed with joy and thanked her repeatedly: "Your heart is kind! May your wishes come true!"
Xu Lian on the side urged him: "Hurry up and drag him down, don't stain the eyes of the distinguished guest!"
"okay!"
The gang stopped punching and kicking, and the man on the ground was already unable to move.
They picked up the man's western limb and carried him back.
"What are you doing standing here?"
Behind him, a steady female voice sounded.
Qing Lingyi and Bi Wei turned back together and said in unison, "Business Manager Xi!"
Shopkeeper Xi is over ten years old, with a dark complexion and a plump figure. His black hair is pulled up high, with a peach wood hairpin inserted casually.
She snorted and said, "So you still recognize me? You haven't been here for so many years. I thought you had completely forgotten me."
Qing Lingyi smiled crookedly: "How could we forget you?"
Shopkeeper Xi raised his eyebrows: "You can't forget me, or can't you forget my fish soup?"
Qing Lingyi's cheeks turned slightly red: "I can't even forget it."
Shopkeeper Xi laughed.
Bi Wei also smiled.
Next to them, Xu Lian looked at them and laughed out loud.
Shopkeeper Xi glanced sideways: "You're so ridiculous, why don't you go prepare fresh mandarin fish?"
Xu Lian said "Hey" good-naturedly.
"Shopkeeper Xi, why do you always bully Brother Xu?" Biwei asked.
"He just owes it." Shopkeeper Xi didn't care.
She raised her chin, "Don't stand there stupidly. Come on, go over and sit."
The set of tables and chairs is placed under the grape trellis.
Shopkeeper Xi poured a cup of chrysanthemum tea for each of them and said casually: "I heard that the emperor arranged for Xiao Lingyi to be married to his married son."
Qing Lingyi nodded.
The tea was fragrant and she wanted to take a sip.
Although her hand was injured, there were more solutions than difficulties. She planned to hold up the small cup with her fingertips.
Bi Wei reached out first, raised the small cup, and brought it to her lips in time.
Qing Lingyi smiled gratefully at her and took a big sip of tea.
It smells really good!
Shopkeeper Xi glanced at her hand, "Is this related to your husband?"
Qing Lingyi couldn't deny that it had nothing to do with it. He hesitated for a moment and nodded again.
Shopkeeper Xi twitched the corner of his mouth: "If your mother finds out, she will have to tear that Chengyang into pieces."
Biwei nodded vigorously.
Qing Lingyi pursed her lips and said, "But you can't blame him entirely. The situation was very complicated at that time."
"I remember I told you," Shopkeeper Xi's eyes were slightly cold, "To feel sorry for a man is the beginning of misfortune."
Qing Lingyi said hurriedly: "I remember! But I have clear grievances. My hand will be injured. It has nothing to do with General Cheng."
She told everything about today's events.
This injury has nothing to do with Cheng Yang.
Bi Wei let out a different emotion: "I didn't expect that the second lady, who seems so weak, could be so courageous."
Shopkeeper Xi praised: "She is indeed Shen Hong's daughter. Qing Yan also said at the beginning that if she hadn't married Cheng Yu, she would definitely inherit Shen Hong's mantle."
"It's good to inherit the mantle, but it's also good to get married and have children. Besides, the second sister-in-law and the second brother really love each other." Qing Lingyi said.
·
Lobby of Tianxing Building.
Cheng Yang put his hands behind his back and stepped into it.
He has a tall and heroic figure, and although he is wearing ordinary black robes, he still can't hide the cold and murderous aura around him.
His arrival attracted everyone's attention.
Cheng Yang had long been used to it, turning a blind eye and scanning the lobby.
Qing Lingyi was not seen.
The waiter greeted me with a smile, "Sir, what would you like to order?"
Cheng Yang was lukewarm and asked, "Two female guests should have arrived just now. One of them is extremely beautiful, with skin as white as snow."
The waiter smiled politely and said: "Tianxing Tower has many diners every day, both male and female, both beautiful and not so beautiful."
Cheng Yang was too lazy to listen to his nonsense and asked bluntly: "Where is she?"
The waiter still smiled, but asked: "I wonder, sir, why are you asking this?"
Cheng Yang raised his eyebrows, "I am Cheng Yang, and that is my wife."
The man was startled and noticed the scar between his eyebrows.
Nowadays, the reputation of "Prime Minister of the West" is at its peak, who doesn't know?
He lowered his head and said, "The villain is offended."
Guided by the waiter, Cheng Yang walked towards the backyard.
Just arrived at the door.
He heard what Qing Lingyi said, "The second sister-in-law and the second brother really love each other."
Cheng Yang's eyes became gentler and he was about to walk in.
Suddenly, he heard a deep female voice asking: "What about you?"
Qing Lingyi was puzzled: "Me?"
The female voice asked more bluntly: "Do you like Cheng Yang?"
