Your Majesty is short of money again

Chapter 380 Drying Up Quickly

At the small family banquet, there were no elders, as usual, there were only five young juniors, but today, there was another Huang Yuechen.

Everyone can understand the meaning of this, and no one has any objections.

Only the younger generation enjoyed the banquet happily, occasionally mentioning embarrassing things in the old days, and it would make everyone laugh. With the intentional care of the three brothers and sisters of the Qi family, coupled with Huang Yuechen's strong adaptability, this small family banquet, Huang Yuechen Blend in without stress.

The banquet ended, and the topics between Qi Jingchen and Situ Ningqing changed from past events to recent events. Huang Yuechen, who had originally left with everyone, quietly returned to the main hall of the banquet.

Seeing Huang Yuechen's return, Situ Ningqing was slightly taken aback, and when she saw Qi Jingchen's calm face, she understood.

"The posthouse caught fire last night, was it your fault?" Although it was doubtful, Situ Ningqing's tone was almost certain.

Qi Jingchen had never doubted this cousin's intelligence and ability, and Qi Jingchen was not surprised that Situ Ningqing was able to guess the mentor last night.

So, Qi Jingchen calmly responded: "Not bad."

Situ Ningqing leaned comfortably on the back of the chair, took a sip of the tea, and asked softly, "What did you find in Qin Fengguo's courtyard last night?"

Huang Yuechen looked at Situ Ningqing with more appreciation.

Seeing this, Qi Jingchen's face changed very slightly, and he gently exerted force on the hand that was holding Huang Yuechen.

Sensing Qi Jingchen's strangeness, Huang Yuechen was stunned for a moment, then noticed the appetizing expression on Qi Jingchen's face, and suddenly understood, she smiled helplessly, this person is really...

With a twitch of her heart, Huang Yuechen also increased the strength in her hands.

There was a slight pain in his hand, Qi Jingchen turned his head and glanced at Huang Yuechen, just in time to see the cunning in Huang Yuechen's eyes, with deep doting, he smiled helplessly.

Seeing the interaction between the two, Situ Ningqing held his forehead and shouted in dissatisfaction: "Do you two want to provoke me, who has no wife, like this?"

Hearing Situ Ningqing's ridicule, Qi Jingchen shrugged: "Sorry, I will pay attention next time."

Situ Ningqing: "..."

These words are so exciting!It is too much to provoke him, who has not yet found a wife, clearly.

"You asked me to stay, wouldn't it be just to watch you show your affection?"

"Of course not." Qi Jingchen responded, mentioning the business, Qi Jingchen also looked solemn, but he didn't let go of Huang Yuechen's hand.

"Have you ever noticed that the well in your courtyard has dried up?" Qi Jingchen asked.

Situ Ningqing was still in doubt: "Which well are you talking about?"

"The well by the gazebo in the garden."

"Is that well dry?" The surprised expression on Situ Ningqing's face was not half false.

Qi Jingchen frowned: "You don't know?"

Situ Ningqing gave Qi Jingchen a blank look: "How could I pay attention to this kind of thing, but, yesterday afternoon, I saw that the well was still quite full, so why did I do it?"

Hearing this, Qi Jingchen and Huang Yuechen looked at each other, and they could see surprise from the reflection in each other's eyes.

The well was still full yesterday afternoon, but it was already dry last night, which is a bit too weird.

"What did you find underground?" Situ Ningqing asked curiously.

Qi Jingchen looked at Situ Ningqing, and said word by word: "A dead man."
