장 69: Brothers' Quarrel

As soon as he mentioned Zhao Qixuan, Ye Jiayao understood why Helian Jing seemed a little off today. That loquacious, homosexual man! Zhao Qixuan must've assumed that she and Chunyu were out doing unspeakable things last night. He must've told Little Jingjing, scaring him enough to make him come all the way here just to fish for some information.

To appease Little Jingjing, and also because she did not want to have anything to do with Xia Chunyu, she calmly replied, "He did not make a mistake. To tell you honestly, the Heir-son Lord came to look for me the other day. However, I had a drop too many and I fell into the river, so he looked for me again. It was just all because of the incident where I asked Deng Haichuan to pretend to be me."

Helian Jing was surprised. "What? He knows that?"

"He is so shrewd and could already tell what the problem was. He just watched you drink vinegar and medicine to prank you!" Ye Jiayao spoke in a muffled voice.
