Chapter 44 The hot potato comes to the door in person

Tan Yu neatly washed the clothes and quilt and hung them to dry under the eaves. The weather has been really unpredictable recently, so it would be better to air-dry them so as not to have time to put them away.

In the room, Chen Jiyue was concentrating on making a menstrual belt. He didn't feel unfamiliar after not doing it for so long.

His hands have always been nimble and tight.

After Tan Yu properly handled the housework, she came to the house and started making menstrual belts with Chen Jiyue.

Although Tan Yu's hands are not clumsy, he is really bad at needlework. As the stitches go on, they become sparse and dense, and it does not look very beautiful, like a small insect crawling irregularly.

"..." Tan Yu was a little frustrated, "Jiyue, what I did is nothing compared to what you did."

Tan Yu put what he had done directly in front of Chen Jiyue.

With a smile on her face, Chen Jiyue took the menstrual belt made by Tan Yu and looked at it carefully, "I think you did a good job, Mr. Tan. It's your first time doing it, and it's already very good."

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and of course anything Tan Yu made was good in Chen Jiyue's eyes.

"Really?" Tan Yu naturally didn't believe it. Her poor skills really didn't make her stand out.

Chen Jiyue nodded heavily, "Really, as long as it works, I believe Master Tan will do better than this next time."

Tan Yuyou was comforted and said, "Okay, I'll keep working hard."

Master Tan, you are really...

Chen Jiyue said warmly: "Master Tan, it's enough for you to study all the twists and turns for me. Women in the world are so ruthless. Being able to achieve this kind of friendship is a friendship I never dared to hope for."

After thinking about it, Tan Yu felt much more relaxed, and decided not to hide the love words in his heart.

"Are you satisfied with this!? Jiyue, don't worry, I will be better to you in the future. I will always give you everything I have." Tan Yu said teasingly.

When Chen Jiyue heard this, his heart seemed to stop for a moment.

He squeezed the menstrual belt in his hand, feeling very emotional.

This is the proactive talker talking about love, rather than the previous talker who just accommodated and coaxed him out of pity.

"Yes! I believe in Master Tan." Chen Jiyue smiled as brightly as the morning sun for the first time.

A light rain began to fall again outside the house. The rain hit the eaves, and the swallows, whose young needed care, gradually returned to their nests.

Dark clouds were gathering over the city, and it was feared that a heavy rain was about to hit.

Tan Yu, who was still busy making dinner in the kitchen, heard a series of rapid knocks on the door. She was suspicious. With the uncertain weather so disturbing, could there be anyone coming to visit?

I’m not that familiar with most of my neighbors, right?

She finally decided to hold an umbrella and brave the heavy rain to open the door.

"Stop knocking, I'll open it right now."

The door creaked open.

The moment he saw the person in front of him, Tan Yu's eyes were as big as bells, and the hairs on his body stood up.

She swallowed hard, her voice trembled a little as she spoke, and her hand that stretched out to help the person in front of her was also shaking.

"Xi...Boss Xi, why are you..."

How could such a dangerous person like you find us here now? ! ! ! ? ? ?

Xi Zhong, who was soaked all over, was very low on energy. The dark circles under his eyes had seriously affected and dragged down his beautiful face.

Xi Zhong looked sad and depressed, with wet hair hanging all over his face. He was also dressed simply, but he still had the gorgeous look of his previous boss Xi Zhong.

Although he was in such a state of desolation, the sharp look on his body did not lighten at all. On the contrary, he became more difficult to mess with due to the added resentment.

"If you don't want anything to happen to Chen Jiyue, then let me in!" Xi Zhong threatened fiercely.

Tan Yu's eyelids twitched. She quickly accepted the reality and handed the umbrella in her hand to Xi Zhong who was still soaked in the rain.

"Okay, come in, as long as you don't hurt Ji Yue."

Although there are eaves at the gate, they are not wide enough.

Xi Zhong's sharp expression softened as Tan Yu handed him the umbrella. He took it and finally no longer had to be hit by the cold rain.

"Come in, let's talk about anything beforehand. Although there are few people on rainy days, we are afraid of accidents."

Tan Yu decided to comfort Xi Zhong first.

Maybe this is a good thing, Xi Zhong found them, it means that he is desperate, at least he no longer has to worry about when he will be arrested by the government to testify against Ji Yue.

This way, things are still under control.

Xi Zhong twitched the corner of his mouth, a little in disbelief.

He secretly thought to himself, he didn't expect that this woman was quite easy to talk to, since she dared to hide herself, a fugitive who was being searched by the government.

He even agreed to it without any hesitation...

For Chen Jiyue?

Sure enough, the two of them are not as simple as siblings of the opposite sex...

In the haze of mist and rain, Tan Yu vaguely saw a tall man holding an umbrella, and she was frightened and panicked.

She hurriedly pulled Xi Zhong in, who was halfway through the door, and hid him behind the door. "Sorry, I was rude, but someone came outside the door."

Xi Zhong, who was about to have an attack, stopped talking when he heard her words.

He was also feeling restless and anxious at the moment. Xi Zhong was soaked to the skin and felt cold both in body and heart, and there was a hint of sadness in his breath holding.

Xi Zhong leaned against the wall, feeling exhausted and weak.

He was full of energy in front of Tan Yu. At this time, he could finally stop pretending and relax for a while.

Xi Zhong is not afraid that Tan Yu will go back on his words, because he can see that Tan Yu is really protective of Chen Jiyue.

Tan Yu saw clearly that the person holding the umbrella was Liu Danqiu! ?

No, no, no, what a coincidence, are they here to arrest Xi Zhong! ? But the way she was strolling around didn't look like she was on official business, and besides, there was no one else accompanying her.

Tan Yu deliberately said loudly, "It's Centurion Liu. Why are you here in such a windy and rainy weather!?"

Xi Zhong's spirit tightened and his heart beat like a drum.

His heart suddenly clenched, and he broke out in cold sweat.

He was carefully hiding and hiding along the way, but he didn't notice any officers or soldiers following him. Could something be wrong? ! ? ?

"Why don't you hold an umbrella?" Liu Danqiu's usual expression clearly did not come for this matter.

Fortunately, Tan Yu was short, so she could huddle up and stand against the door frame.

Liu Danqiu moved forward and asked them to share an umbrella. The umbrella was large enough to accommodate Tan and Yu.

"Ah, oh, oh, I just seemed to hear someone knocking on the door, so I hurriedly came out, but I didn't see anyone when I opened the door. Maybe the dogs and cats running around in the street without shelter because of the rain accidentally knocked on the door. , I misunderstood.”

Tan Yu felt uncomfortable with Liu Danqiu's sudden approach.

"That's it, I understand."

Liu Danqiu directly stated the purpose of coming today, "Um, Tan Yu, can you disguise yourself as a man again... act as an informant and sneak into Cuilou to ambush them, and help us catch the grass-picking robbers."

The corners of Tan Yu's mouth twitched for a moment, "...Ha!?"

"Me!?" Tan Yu pointed at himself.

Liu Danqiu nodded without changing his expression and said, "Yes."

Tan Yu was puzzled, "Wait a minute, I know about the grass-picking thief, but where is Cuilou?"

Liu Danqiu uttered words that shocked her, "A brothel is a high-end brothel, a place for the upper class to enjoy themselves."

Xi Zhong's expression changed as he just felt relieved behind the door.
