During the Chinese New Year, Yun Qiao witnessed the murder scene.

The assailant did not escape, nor did he kill her to silence her, but instead allowed her to desecrate her body.

Yun Qiao glanced at it a few times.

Xi Qiye took it as a matter of course, "I'm delicate and soft, you must pamper me" and motioned to Yun Qiao to start quickly.

He said with good reason: "It's too cold. I'll be frozen for a while and it won't be possible to operate the knife."

Yun Qiao: "..."

In the end, Yun Qiao did not help Xi Qiye. She just thought of a way to get the contents out of the dead man's stomach for him.

Master Xi Qi was disgusted and ordered Yun Qiao: "Help me pick up the key."

Yun Qiao: "If it's dirty, pick it up yourself."

"I'm also afraid of getting dirty." Master Xi Qi said.

Yun Qiao: "..."

She had no choice but to use the towel that Master Xi Qi had just wiped his hands with, wrapped it up for him, picked it up, wiped it casually, and handed it to him.

Mr. Xi Qi didn’t answer.

He knocked on the courtyard door.

Someone opened the door, looked at Mr. Xi Qi, then at the corpse outside, and walked out silently.

Master Xi Qi invited Yun Qiao: "Come in, sit down and have a cup of hot tea."

Yun Qiao: "..."

After entering the house, Mr. Xi Qi went to change clothes and wash his hands, and soon came out to drink tea with Yun Qiao.

Yun Qiao kept looking at him, as if he wanted to find some clues from him.

How could this person, who was cold, distant, sickly and gentle in front of others, kill someone in front of her and show his true colors again?

Which one is the real him?

"Are you Xiao Ying's granddaughter?" Master Xi Qi held the tea cup and gently teased the floating leaves. The mist of the tea filled his eyebrows.

It was like a cloud of fog rising in front of him.

Yun Qiao's back was a little tight: "Do you recognize my grandma?"

"People of all religions and professions must worship Granny Xiao's dock. She has a great reputation. As long as she eats this bowl of rice on the road, who doesn't know her?" Xi Qiye said lazily, "After she died, the mantle was passed on to you.

?"

"No." Yun Qiao lied.

No one would reveal their true identity to a stranger.

"It's okay if you don't have it. The food on the road is not delicious and tiring." Mr. Xi Qi took another sip of tea, "Being the stepdaughter of the Xi family will have a future."

Yun Qiao: "Have I seen you?"

"How many times have you been to Yancheng?"

"Six times."

"Maybe I've seen it." Mr. Xi Qi put down the tea cup, "Maybe not."

When Yun Qiao left, there was nothing on the path, even the green bricks had been washed, as if nothing had happened that night.

Yun Qiao took a few steps forward and couldn't help but look back, only to find Master Xi Qi standing at the door to see her off.

He kept looking at her, his face hard to see clearly against the light. When he saw Yun Qiao turning around, she didn't say anything and stood there like a statue of a god, staying there without saying a word.

There seem to be thousands of words, but it’s hard to put into words.

Yun Qiao quickly returned to the fourth room.

She didn't sleep and kept sitting on the sofa in a daze, waiting for Du Xiaoqin and the others to come back.

Master Xi Qi's name is Xi Lanting. Yun Qiao has never heard of his name or deeds on the road, but he knows the details of his grandmother very well.

Du Xiaoqin didn't even know.

For example, Du Xiaoqin had no idea about the sisters Changning and Jingxin brought over by Yun Qiao, nor their abilities.

And Xi Lanting undoubtedly knew it.

How did he know?

This incident did not bother Yun Qiao for a long time, because she had not seen Xi Qiye again after the New Year.

"Uncle Qi is sick again."

"Master Qi is always sick and is bedridden for eight months of the year."

According to Yun Qiao's guess, he may have gone out. He complained of illness when he was not at home, so he pretended to be weak in front of his family.

So, what does he do behind the scenes?

Soon, Yun Qiao no longer had the intention to study the seventh master of the Xi family. Du Xiaoqin brought someone to meet her and planned to arrange a marriage for her.

The purpose of proposing marriage is to kick Yun Qiao out of the house.

Yun Qiao promised her grandmother that she would live with Xi's family for three years, so she refused to leave easily.
