Senior sister, have you sold swords today?

Chapter 60 Fire in the Pavilion
It was dusk when we left Fugui Restaurant, and the magnificent sunset hung in the sky.

Shi Yi asked the waiter to pack a few delicious dishes and then returned to Yiming Pavilion.

Fu Shen immediately spoke: "I'll take you home."

Shi Yi chuckled and asked, "What are you doing? It's not along the way. It will be tiring to have to go all the way."

Fushen lowered his eyes slightly, stared at her, his dark eyes filled with tenderness, and said, "Since I'm the one asking you to treat me, I have to escort you back."

In fact, he just wanted to stay with her for a while.

But Shiyi didn't know his intention, and said something humorless: "If we are really in danger, I will definitely oil the soles of my feet faster than you, and I will be distracted to protect you, so you can calmly return to the Prime Minister Come on, don’t go tossing and tossing to send me off."

Fu Shen was a bit dumbfounded. After all, he was no match for her clever words, so he could only obey her wishes in the end.

But he still took a few steps and turned back, but his Eleven was carrying the packed food, jumping and jumping happily, without looking back once during the whole process.

Fu Shen suddenly felt sorry for himself, why did he fall in love with such a heartless girl.

His road to love is destined to be so bumpy and difficult!

The road back to Yiming Pavilion was not close, so Shi Yi accelerated his steps as quickly as possible, thinking about letting his junior brother eat hot food.

When she got a little closer, she suddenly saw a flash of fire in the direction of Yiming Pavilion, and black smoke rose into the sky, which was particularly conspicuous in the quiet and dark night.

Shi Yi's heart skipped a beat, and she felt that something was wrong.

When she ran all the way to the front, she confirmed her previous guess. There was indeed a fire in the pavilion!

It was an overwhelming fire that started in the wing of the side hall and had not yet spread to the front yard.

Chunqing invited some strong men to put out the fire urgently, but the fire was so fierce that even if it was extinguished, the side hall would still be unbearable.

Shi Yi didn't have time to ask the reason for the water leakage, so she joined the team that put out the fire.

Two hours later, several houses had broken beams and were pitch black.

It's late at night, but luckily there's a full moon tonight, spreading the bright moonlight all over the place.

Chunqing thanked the men and paid them. After sending them away, he turned back and asked Shi Yi if he was okay.

"Senior sister, when did you come here? Are you injured?" The young man was filled with worry, and his clear eyes looked at her up and down to make sure she was okay.

Just now, he was busy directing the fire extinguishing and did not notice the return of his senior sister.

Shi Yi wiped the sweat from his forehead, shook his head and said, "I'm fine."

But she still pointed to the food put aside apologetically and said, "But the dinner I packed for you is all waterlogged."

Chunqing didn't pay attention to the next sentence. He just heard her say that she was safe and sound, and he breathed a long sigh of relief.

Shi Yi was very puzzled that there would be a fire in the pavilion, and immediately asked: "What happened? How could there be such a big fire? It was from the side hall where the fire is least likely to start."

The side hall is a living room, and candles are lit only when people are staying. Tonight, only Chunqing is in the pavilion. The junior brother who has always been cautious is absolutely impossible to cause a fire, and even if he accidentally knocks over the candle, With his skills, it would not be a problem to put out the fire in time.

Chunqing was also confused and said with great confusion: "After I cleaned each house in the afternoon, I went to the bamboo garden in the backyard to clean up fallen leaves. By the time I smelled the strong smell of smoke, the fire had already spread." "It's obvious to me. No one is in the side hall, and the weather is not dry, so the chance of a natural fire is almost non-existent, and I can't figure out the reason."

After thinking about this, Chunqing's eyes suddenly turned red, and she whispered: "If master comes back, how should I explain it? It is my dereliction of duty that caused the pavilion to suffer heavy losses."

Shi Yi said without hesitation: "Don't be afraid of your master's blame. Your senior sister, I have money, and I will definitely restore the side hall to its original state before Grandpa He returns!"

Chunqing refused: "No, you can't spend senior sister's money, not to mention this is by no means a small amount. I will be punished when master comes back. This matter has nothing to do with senior sister, you don't need to interfere."

He knew that the money in Senior Sister's hands was extremely difficult to earn, and that Senior Sister's revenge plan had not been realized yet, so he could not work hard for so long only to fall short.

Although Shi Yi was reluctant to spend money on his family, no matter how important money was, it couldn't be compared to his junior brother, let alone how he could make money again after the money was gone.

"Listen to me! I am senior sister!" Shi Yi could only declare domineeringly at this moment.

Chunqing refused: "The only thing I can't listen to is my senior sister. I am a disciple of Haojian Tang and not a disciple of Yiming Pavilion. You don't have to pay for my mistakes!"

Junior Brother Qingchun can still be quite stubborn sometimes, so Shi Yi could only resort to bitter tactics, saying how pitiful he was to guard the sect alone, and finally came to the capital to join Grandpa He, thinking that he had become a part of Yiming Pavilion. But unexpectedly he was excluded.

"It turns out that in the eyes of junior brother, I have always been an outsider! Then why do you still call me senior sister? I just leave. The farther away the better, I will never come to this sad place again..."

Shi Yi pretended to be sad and wiped the corners of his eyes that couldn't squeeze out tears, while looking at his expression with her peripheral vision.

Sure enough, Chunqing immediately explained anxiously after hearing this: "That's not what I meant! Senior sister is better than my biological sister. She is the family member of junior brother that I want to protect at the expense of myself! I didn't want to drive senior sister away, I - hiss!"

The more he spoke, the more anxious he became. He actually bit his tongue, then stopped mid-sentence and pursed the corners of his mouth.

The bite was quite heavy, and Shi Yi could see him frowning.

But in fact, she didn't know the real reason why Chunqing frowned in pain at that time.It wasn't a bitten tongue, but a wound from somewhere else.

She still sighed, what a clumsy and pain-shy little junior brother.

Shi Yi stopped her false sadness and said deliberately: "If what you said is true, then leave the task of building the inner house to me, otherwise I will leave and you will never see me again!"

Under her threat, Chunqing had no choice but to agree.

He thought of an urgent matter that needed to be solved: "Sister, where should we sleep tonight?"

Shi Yi held his arm, curled her lips and said, "During this period, let's stay in the inn where Brother Xingjue lives! I'm in charge of the room charges, and of course I can't ask you, brother, to pay for it!"

Shi Yi knew that his junior brother lived a frugal life and had no extra money to spend on staying in an inn, so he simply spoke first to put an end to his worries.

Chunqing still felt bad, thinking that she was a burden and a trouble to her.

Shi Yi dispelled his doubts and said with a smile: "I have lived in the pavilion for several months without paying a cent of rent. I have the shamelessness to trouble my junior brother for so long, and I also ask my junior brother to trouble me occasionally. Who asked us to It’s a family.”

Chunqing was convinced by her.

The two siblings immediately went to the inn.

When Xing Jue saw them coming to live in the house, he quickly realized something was wrong. After asking, he learned that there was a fire in Yiming Pavilion.
