Chapter 201 2 people become 4 people
Mu Tangxi raised his hand and opened the wooden box. Inside was an elegant and majestic hairpin, the whole body of which was carved with silver butterflies flapping their wings and hanging with drop-shaped jade.
When the breeze blows, the butterfly's wings tremble, becoming extremely agile.
Mu Tangxi picked up the hairpin and shook it curiously. The butterfly on it looked like it was about to flap its wings and fly away.
She curled her lips and said, "Thank you Qi Chen, I like this gift very much."
"Qi Chen, can you help me put it on?"
Mu Tangxi raised her bright eyes and slowly waved her hairpin towards him.
Ji Qichen breathed a sigh of relief after seeing the smile, but his heart beat faster like a drum because of Tang Xi's words.
He stood up slowly, walked to Tangxi, took the hairpin from Tangxi's hand, and gently inserted it into her bun.
Just when Ji Qichen was about to withdraw his hand and sit back, the door of the private room was suddenly kicked open!
Ji Qichen looked back in surprise, only to see a goose yellow shadow jump directly in front of him and Tangxi, and then was pushed away unexpectedly.
Ji Qichen:?
He was a step behind before he heard the waiter of the restaurant dissuading him, "Dear guests, we have other private rooms in our restaurant. Please do not intrude into other people's private rooms!"
Ji Qichen's lips went from slightly upturned to pursed into a straight line.
The veins on his forehead bulged. He stopped the letters from Jingyang Hou and his sister just to cultivate feelings with Tangxi.
Then, why did the two of them follow me again? !
As soon as Gu Shiyin pushed Ji Qichen away, she smiled at Sister Tangxi, "Long time no see, Sister Tangxi!"
Gu Shiming, who came later, ignored Ji Qichen and walked up to greet Tangxi.
Ji Qichen stared blankly at the restaurant waiter at the door, and after a moment of silence, he let the waiter leave.
I didn't expect that even after they were in this state, they could still find each other again.
I really... admire you!
Ji Qichen turned around and put on a fake smile, "I wonder why you two are here?"
Gu Shiming glanced at Ji Qichen for a few times and curled his lips, "We just accidentally saw you, so we came up to chat."
Want to separate them? Impossible!
Still want to develop feelings with Tangxi? Impossible!
A few days ago, he was asked to win over a few officials, but now Ji Qichen himself has started to develop relationships with them!
"The Third Prince won't be unwelcome, right?"
Although Gu Shiming said this, he had already sat opposite Tang Xi, next to Ji Qichen's seat.
Ji Qichen, who was provoked in this way, was about to say that he was not welcome, but was blocked by Gu Shiming again.
"I think Miss Mu likes gentle and polite people the most." Gu Shiming and Ji Qichen looked at each other, and there seemed to be a spark between them.
Ji Qichen gritted his teeth and said, "Of course I welcome you to come!"
Sure enough, next time I should quietly say some bad things about them to Tangxi!
When Gu Shiyin kicked the door open, she saw the Third Prince inserting a hairpin into Sister Tangxi's head. It looked pretty, but not as pretty as the hairpin she gave to her sister last time!
If they hadn't received a reply letter that seemed to be written by someone imitating Sister Tangxi's handwriting, which made her and her brother a little worried, they would not have asked the servants to check it out.
After all, the Prime Minister's Mansion seems to be in a state of unrest recently. Something happened to the eldest son, and then there are rumors that something happened to the second son. Finally, even the third son seems to have had an accident. What if something happens to Sister Tangxi? !
You wouldn’t know the result until you checked. Once you checked, both of them fell silent.
The third prince is quite upright in his actions and does not hide anything at all.
This news made the two of them furious.
They never expected that someone would do such a thing!
Block their letters and pretend to be Tangxi to write back to them to decline?!
What a sinister person!
They had thought that the Third Prince was a fool, but they didn't expect this!
Mu Tangxi looked at Shi Yin in confusion, "How did you know we were here?"
Gu Shiyin directly sold out her brother, "Because we wrote you a letter, but the handwriting on the reply letter was not right, so I thought of asking the servants to check your location."
She smiled at Sister Tangxi in a nice way and said, "We were just worried that something might happen to you. We won't do that next time."
Gu Shiming looked at his sister expressionlessly. Oh no, it should be Tangxi's sister.
He had just explained to Ji Qichen that he just happened to see them when he passed by, but he was exposed by his sister the next second.
Whose sister is this?
Moreover, Gu Shiming could clearly hear Ji Qichen's laughter beside him.
Gu Shiming: ...
good very good.
In this case, Ji Qichen will have a hard time!
After all, the two people present were: one was his own sister, so it didn’t matter what happened; and the other was Miss Tang... Mu, she was right!
This leaves only Ji Qichen!
Gu Shiming turned to look at Ji Qichen, with a harmless smile on his face, "Qichen, I have recently recruited some people, do you want to arrange a time to meet?"
Ji Qi Chen shuddered after hearing this. When he heard Tang Xi calling him Qi Chen, his heart would still pound, but when Gu Shiming called him like this, his heart almost stopped!
He took a deep breath and turned around, "Shi Ming, why are you so polite? Just go and communicate with them."
Gu Shiming wanted to vomit.
Finally, the two of them turned their heads away with a look of disgust.
It's really a double loss of 800 while hurting others by 1,000!
But seeing that Ji Qichen wanted to talk to Mu Tangxi, Gu Shiming still wanted to pull him back!
“Third Prince, please pay attention to these hard-earned officials. You still need to communicate with them in person, otherwise they will not feel at ease!”
Ji Qichen nodded, "I know, when are they free?"
Gu Shiming breathed a sigh of relief. "I'm always free. You can go to their house at any time, or invite them out to communicate."
Ji Qichen decisively chose the restaurant. After all, his eldest and second brothers were keeping a close eye on him. If he went to the official's house in person, he was afraid that someone would impeach him for forming a clique for personal gain the next day!
"Go tell them to pretend that we've made an appointment to have a drink together at the restaurant, and I'll be there then."
There is a secret passage in this restaurant. Even if the eldest and second brothers block it, they won’t be able to find him!
Gu Shiming responded, then lowered his voice to remind him, "There's one more thing. Someone seems to be following you recently. I just saw several people lingering at the entrance of the restaurant!"
Ji Qichen was not surprised at all, and even comforted Gu Shiming, "Don't be afraid, they are my eldest and second brothers' people."
Gu Shiming was stunned after hearing this, "The Crown Prince and the Second Prince?!"
"Did they know our plan?!"
Gu Shiming's pupils shrank in an instant, and his mind was full of thoughts on how to solve this problem.
Or just kill the people wandering around below the restaurant? !
Ji Qichen didn't expect Gu Shiming to react so strongly. It might also be that he was used to it, but he didn't expect others were not used to it.
