Seeing this, Qi Lingying went into the inner room and took out a chessboard.

"God wants to keep you, why don't you have a good talk."

Jing Yu glanced at the sky and realized that it was still early. He had left enough money for Qian Xue, so nothing would happen.

There were not many days like today when he saw Qi Lingying and had a good conversation, so Jing Yu was not in a hurry to leave.

The two sat on opposite sides of the round table and started talking.

Jing Yu initially thought of letting Qi Lingying use her hands to talk and find out some information.

Who would have thought that Qi Lingying's chess skills were not low, and the two of them were chatting with each other at first, but when Jing Yu realized that he had fallen into Qi Lingying's trap, he couldn't help but become serious.

The decisiveness of killing that Jing Yu cultivated in the army was also very ferocious on the chessboard. Even though Qi Lingying tried her best to save her, she was ultimately defeated.

She smiled and slid the chess piece in her hand into the chess box, "Thank you, Master Jing, for your teaching. Ling Ying has benefited a lot."

Jing Yu's eyes were still glued to the chessboard. Although he had won, Qi Lingying's method of fighting and retreating while laying traps everywhere still made his eyes shine.

"Miss Qi Liu, there is no need to be modest, your chess skills are also quite good."

After Jing Yu finished speaking, he looked up at Qi Lingying and realized that the sky had darkened.

When he thought of Qian Xue, he panicked and wanted to leave immediately.

Qi Lingying opened the window at this time and looked at the autumn rain outside. She had always maintained a calm smile and suddenly became a little more popular.

"Master Jing, it's dark and the roads are slippery, so be careful where you step."

Jing Yu left for a moment, then walked to the window, turned to Qi Lingying and asked, "What do you mean, Miss Qi Liu?"

Qi Lingying took back the hand that had caught some rainwater and wiped it clean with a handkerchief.

"I know you have great ambitions, but you can't always just look at the distance."

Jing Yu's mind was racing, thinking about what was wrong with what he had been doing these days.

"The autumn rain is cold and cold. If you don't give up, I am willing to hold an umbrella for you."

After Qi Lingying finished speaking, she slightly raised the corners of her lips, and there seemed to be stars twinkling in her eyes.

Jing Yu seemed to have thought of something, raised his brows, and smiled back.

Qi Lingying saw the smile on Jing Yu's lips and raised her hand to close the window.

"The wind is cold at night, and it won't be good if Mr. Jing catches the cold."

She turned around and ordered, "Si Zhu, bring the wrapped tea leaves and the umbrella. I'll send Mr. Jing down."

Jing Yu looked at her series of instructions with a smile on his face, and his eyes were still a little tentative.

"If my maid likes this tea, can she come to Miss Qi to get it again?"

Qi Lingying took the umbrella and let Sizhu hold the wrapped tea leaves with a calm smile.

"If Miss Qian likes it, I'll always welcome you here."

She raised her hand and signaled Jing Yu to come downstairs.

Seeing Qi Lingying's behavior, Jing Yu finally felt relieved and walked downstairs.

As soon as they opened the door, their clothes were soaked by the sudden wind and rain. Jing Yu was walking in the front, and even his hair was stained a little.

Qi Lingying took a quick step forward, stood in a row with Jing Yu, and handed over her handkerchief.

"Master Jing, wipe it."

Jing Yu looked at her extended hand and thought of the two handkerchiefs already at home, so he didn't really want to take it.

Qi Lingying took half a step forward and handed the handkerchief forward a little further.

Jing Yu somehow remembered the scene where she just wiped Qiu Yu's hand with this handkerchief.

Is it a contract-like object similar to the hairpin he gave me as a gift?

He pondered for a long time, and finally took it under Qi Lingying's gaze, and then said with a smile: "Thank you, Miss Qi Liu." He wiped the rain from his forehead with a handkerchief, then turned and left.

The rain curtain was swaying, but at a glance he saw a thin and petite figure standing not far away.

Isn’t that Qian Xue!

He rushed into the rain almost without thinking.

But someone pulled his sleeve.

He turned his head in confusion. Qi Lingying just handed over the umbrella and tea leaves and let go of her sleeves.

She didn't speak, she remained quiet and gentle, and her eyes followed his direction and looked at Qian Xue.

"Thank you." Jing Yu thanked Qi Lingying and rushed towards Qian Xue with an umbrella.

Qian Xue felt as if her whole body was cold from the soles of her feet to her heart.

She was so happy last night that she couldn't sleep because the young master was taking her out of the house, and this morning she was so sweet because the young master gave her jewelry and clothes, but now she was hit hard in the face by reality.

It turns out that she was just an excuse for the young master to meet Miss Qi Liu.

She was standing here just now, looking up at the beautiful couple, singing to the wind and making moonlight in the misty autumn rain, and then smiled in tacit understanding.

Later, in the warm halo, I saw Miss Qi tenderly giving a handkerchief, and the young master smiling tenderly.

Her heart seemed to be pinched hard by a big hand, and it became difficult to breathe. Even when she saw the young master running towards her, she couldn't move her feet at all.

"Why are you here?" As soon as Jing Yu came closer, he found that except for her head, almost everything on Qian Xue's body was wet. Her small face, which was already fair, was even whiter with the cold at this moment.

He felt a pain in his heart, and before Qianxue could say anything, he took her directly into his arms.

"Why are you running around in such a heavy rain! I gave you so much money, you can just find a store to hide in."

After Jing Yu touched her cold arms and back, he couldn't help but curse a few more times.

Qian Xue leaned against Jing Yu's neck and saw Qi Lingying's movements from afar through the blurry rain curtain.

Seeing Jing Yu hugging her, Qi Lingying just took a few steps back, straightened her skirt, nodded slightly to Qian Xue, then turned around and entered the house again.

Dignified, elegant, and calm, Qian Xue could not see a trace of grievance or anger in her body, which was completely different from Qi Lingyao.

A finger hit her forehead, Qianxue said "Ouch" and finally recovered.

"Are you frozen? Why don't you answer when I talk to you?"

Qianxue was already in Jing Yu's arms, and the two of them headed towards where Tianxuan parked his car under the same umbrella.

Only then did Qianxue realize that it was Jing Yu who was holding an umbrella for her at this moment. She was a little flustered and wanted to get out of Jing Yu's arms.

"Master, my servant will hold an umbrella for you."

"Just cover yourself. I'm not as stupid as you to get yourself covered in the rain."

Jing Yu did not let go, but hugged Qian Xue even tighter.

Qianxue couldn't resist Jing Yu's strength, so she had to open the umbrella with great effort to block the rain coming from all around.

Soon Tianxuan came over and put the two of them on the carriage.

Qian Xue's body was wet, and for fear of soiling the carriage, she could only huddle in a corner, not daring to move.

Jing Yu asked her again why she came here.

This time Qianxue heard clearly and told all about Cloth Shop's early closing and her worries.

Jing Yu looked at her cowering in the corner of the carriage, and the anger that had been surging was suppressed.

"Why are you so stubborn? It's just your luck that you bumped into me here. If you hadn't bumped into me, how were you going to spend your evening?"
