Cute Baby from Heaven: Kiss Goodbye, Mr. Li

Chapter 1056 Arrangements for Night Watch

As soon as this remark came out, even if it didn't shock everyone, it also shocked all the guests who heard it.

However, if Yan Xiaye really intends to compete for the position of heir, then now is indeed the best time.

After a brief silence, several men who had already entered the courtyard came out one after another, and politely invited Yan Xiaye in to talk, instead of turning a blind eye like just now.

From their point of view, offending Qin Jingyi is of course not worthwhile for a young lady who has no real power.

However, when the eldest lady is likely to become the future heir, then it is another matter.

While saying this, Yan Xiaye had already expected such a result, but he didn't expect these people to be more active than her.

In addition, there were people who supported Qin Jingyi watching from a distance, going in non-stop to report, and more people watching coldly, silently guessing which side had a better chance of winning, and were not in a hurry to offer their loyalty.

Holding Li Yuntang's hand surrounded by everyone, Yan Xiaye walked into the courtyard majesticly, and saw Qin Jingyi rushing out angrily.

"Yan Xiaye, father's bones are not cold yet, so you want to seize my property?"

Looking at the hall of the villa calmly, Yan Xiaye said calmly: "Whether it is your property or not, we will not know until there is a fair competition."

From a legal point of view, there is nothing wrong with what she said.

Although patriarchy is common in China, the law still does not allow such obvious discrimination, not to mention the complexity of the factions of the Qin family, Qin Jingyi is not in control.

"That's right, Missy is right!"

People around who supported Yan Xia Ye stepped forward and said politely: "Master, you and the young miss are both the children of the old man. Now that the old man has passed away, you shouldn't stop the young lady because of love and reason." Outside, let alone Second Master Li... This behavior is too childish."

After all, these people not only had expectations for Yan Xiaye's talent, but also feared Li Yuntang's existence.

But Qin Jing knew it in his heart, but his face was quite ugly: "This dead girl killed my father. You keep saying that you respect my father, but you want me to let his enemy in?"

"Qin Jingyi, you were not the only one present at that time. I admit that my father died because of me, but that was definitely not my intention."

Mentioning what happened just now, Yan Xiaye's heart ached, and he quietly tightened Li Yuntang's hand, and the man gave him a reassuring grip.

With his flustered heart beating firmly, Yan Xiaye said lightly, "Li Yuntang and I will explain this matter to everyone."

Qin Jing's face became even more gloomy, and he stared at Yan Xiaye bitterly, but couldn't think of a reason to reprimand her for a moment.

Those who supported Yan Xia Ye took the opportunity to express their affirmation: "Then there is no problem, we all believe in Er Ye Li's promise."

With the support of these people, Yan Xiaye closed his eyes, walked side by side with Li Yuntang, and walked towards the hall step by step.

When passing by Qin Jingyi's side, the man raised his eyebrows and wanted to stop her, but was immediately stopped by his cronies.

It took Yan Xiaye a full 10 minutes to cover the short distance of more than ten meters.

Until she saw clearly the ebony coffin placed in the hall, the sadness in her heart turned into reality, and she silently bit her lower lip.

Everyone was watching her every move. On this occasion, she should have burst into tears, but she couldn't even cry at this moment.

The moment when her father gave up his life to protect her is still vivid in my memory. An indescribable guilt is like an invisible big palm, tightly grasping her heart.

Standing on the spot with unsteady breathing, Yan Xiaye silently gathered up the courage to go forward, unable to move for a while.

Qin Jing, who came in later, saw this scene, and immediately mocked bitterly: "Yan Xiaye, don't you have a clear conscience? Why are you afraid of seeing your father for the last time?"

Yan Xiaye acted as if she had never heard of it, and the people around her were also silent.

Anyone can see that the reason for Yan Xiaye's reluctance is definitely not what Qin Jingyi said, but because of too much grief, it is difficult to easily accept such reality and results.

After a long time, Yan Xiaye seemed to muster up his courage, and quietly took one step towards the coffin, one step after another.

During the whole process, Li Yuntang was always by her side, his slender and elegant figure was like the most powerful backer in the world.

Standing quietly in front of the coffin, Yan Xiaye looked down at the sleeping old man in the coffin with his eyes closed, and then knelt down on his knees.

If her father hadn't chosen to save her, the one lying inside would have probably been replaced by herself.

From her kneeling, the atmosphere in the entire villa instantly became sad. Most of the guests were old acquaintances of Mr. Qin, and they couldn't help but sigh slightly at this moment.

Li Yuntang bowed deeply to the old man in the coffin, expressing his gratitude with a solemn expression that he had no time to say.

Seeing Yan Xiaye lying on the ground trembling slightly, he suppressed the urge to step forward to help her up, and silently let her grieve.

From the beginning to the end, from the perspective of an outsider, it is difficult to say how much affection Mr. Qin has for Yan Xiaye.

But the final result is like this, there is no need to bring up those unbearable pasts, as if nothing happened.

For a moment, everyone was infected by Yan Xiaye's actions and burst into tears.

Only Qin Jingyi still stared at Yan Xiaye viciously, until his confidant reminded him again and again, and wiped his tears with a sullen face, which was considered an explanation to everyone.

After a while, the staff responsible for arranging the funeral came in to report on the preparations, and asked in a low voice: "Has the old man had any last words about the funeral? Do you want to keep the coffin for three days according to the old rules?"

Uncle Xu, the housekeeper, took care of the relevant matters on his behalf. Hearing this, he looked at Qin Jingyi in embarrassment, and then at Yan Xiaye.

Judging from the current situation, he really wanted to ask his master for advice, but he didn't know which one to ask for advice.

Fortunately, on this matter, Yan Xiaye and Qin Jingyi reached an agreement, and said in unison: "Stop the coffin for three days."

The butler breathed a sigh of relief, and waved to the staff, who stepped back tactfully.

Soon, the sun was setting and it was dinner time.

Some elderly guests left early, and the rest gathered in the hall, watching the actions of Qin Jingyi and Yan Xiaye with different thoughts, and eating the sandwiches brought by the maids like chewing wax.

Xia Ye knelt for several hours, until Li Yuntang couldn't bear it, and abruptly picked her up from the ground.

This move once again provoked Qin Jingyi's cynicism, but no one cared.

Holding her and sitting on the sofa by the window, Li Yuntang asked the maid to get a sandwich and ordered another glass of ice water.

Holding the cup and gently pressing it against Yan Xiaye's face, he gently called her name: "Xia Ye, eat something, huh?"

The coolness cleared Yan Xiaye's chaotic mind.

She turned her eyes hesitantly, looking at the man with a gentle smile, her eyes were red again in an instant.

"Hey, don't cry, don't cry, it's all over."

At a loss, Li Yuntang embraced her into his arms. Li Yuntang only had continuous patience when dealing with Yan Xiaye, "You know Mr. Qin's time is short. If I were him, I would be very happy to have such an opportunity. Really do your father's duty once."

Yan Xiaye shook his head lightly, his voice was hoarse and he couldn't speak.

Fortunately, Li Yuntang didn't need her to say anything, he just coaxed her patiently until she fell asleep exhausted.

Eyes as deep as deep abysses swept across the nearby guests, and the surrounding people consciously lowered their voices.

Only a few ignorant people came over and smiled flatteringly: "Second Master Li, Missy has your help here, and the successor's affairs are sure, and we will support Missy."

Glancing at these uninvited guests indifferently, Li Yuntang sent them away concisely: "I understand what you mean, but now is not the time to talk about this."

"Yes, yes, you are right, we are too hasty."

A few people turned around and left with smiles on their faces, and soon they were replaced by other people, and Li Yuntang was very disturbed by the comings and goings.

However, this is Mr. Qin's funeral after all. He suppressed his displeasure and said coldly: "If you are really in such a hurry, why not go out and set up your own family?"

"No, no, of course we don't mean that, we just care about Missy's body."

A few people were turned away, and left with embarrassment on their faces, which finally made the others have lingering fears, and they stopped coming over to bother them.

As the night darkened, the guests left one after another, and in the end only the servants of the Qin family and a dozen relatives were left.

"Everyone, it's time for the night watch."

Uncle Xu, the housekeeper, looked at the clock hanging in the hall, and said apologetically, "According to Jiang Hai's rules, the night watchmen can only be close relatives of the old man. Please go back first, and come back tomorrow."

The rest of the people sighed and nodded, and left one by one.

As a result, apart from Yan Xiaye and Qin Jingyi, Li Yuntang was the only one left in the hall.

The housekeeper looked at the evil god hesitantly, and said very politely: "Second Master, if you are worried about Missy, you can rest in the guest room, what do you think?"

Li Yuntang looked up at him, and said with a half-smile: "Rules are made by people, changing them doesn't mean disrespecting the dead."

With such a lesson learned from the past, how could he rest assured that Yan Xiaye and Qin Jingyi were alone in the same room?
"Even if you say that..." The housekeeper had no choice but to turn to Qin Jingyi for help, "Master, what do you think?"

"Then why don't you ask?"

Qin Jing snorted coldly, and continued with a gloomy tone: "Of course not. If Yan Xiaye doesn't have the heart, and just gets out of the Qin family, my father doesn't need her hypocrisy."

As if he deliberately wanted to wake Yan Xiaye from his deep sleep, his voice was loud, and it did achieve his goal.
