Even in the matter of breaking off the engagement, the young lady was still the one who took the lead. Although it was the young lady's own business and she should have been at the forefront, don't forget that the young lady had been well protected before this.

To put it nicely, it is a flower that has been nurtured. To put it bluntly, it is an embroidered pillow. It looks good, but it is really useless.

But because of this broken engagement, Lan Ye realized that the young lady was not a useless person. She just didn't need to charge into battle on normal days and was protected by other people in the family. So why bother?

But when the time comes, the young lady is able to perform well. Lan Ye can only attribute this to the good teaching of the Marquis and his wife.

The three children of the Xie family, the eldest son, the second daughter, and the youngest son, are all outstanding people.

Thinking in this way, it seems that no matter who she follows, her future is good. At least as a woman, Lan Ye admires the young lady, a sharp-edged female master, even more.

Thinking of this, she bowed.

"I, Lan Ye, am willing to follow you, young lady! I will risk my life for you. If you don't mind, I will never give up on you! If you do, you can arrange for me to go somewhere else."

Xie Lingxi was very happy to hear her say that.

"You don't have to make yourself sound so insignificant. Since I asked Big Brother to give you to me, it means I think highly of you. I have a lot of things to do next. Now that you're with me, I have to get to know your abilities first."

"Whether it's martial arts or brains, I hope you can bring them all out, and don't hide them. The smarter you are, the more useful you will be. I will give you more important things to do, and of course, you will also get the benefits."

Lan Ye's eyes lit up slightly.

"Thank you for your consideration, Miss! Please let me know if you have any instructions!"

Xie Lingxi nodded and said with a raised eyebrow.

"Go and find out about the Ge family, the family of my newly adopted aunt. Find out about the people in the Ge family, what happened in the Ge family, and their reputation."

"Do you have any enemies? Even if it's about the Ge family stealing vegetables from other people's vegetable gardens, you have to ask me about it. I want to know everything. Can you do it?"

After hearing this, Lan Ye was stunned at first, and then he bowed.

"I obey your command! If you have no other instructions, I will go."

Seeing that she did not ask the reason, Xie Lingxi felt even more satisfied.

It’s not that her subordinates can’t ask her the reason, but if they want to say it, she will naturally tell it.

What's more, if he can't even guess this kind of thing, then this subordinate is probably of no use. Sometimes, the master and the subordinate need to be in sync with each other.

Lan Ye just doesn't understand what he wants to do now, but as time goes by, the tacit understanding will naturally emerge, so Xie Lingxi said.

"Okay, go ahead. Remember, keep a low profile and don't let anyone find out."

Lan Ye nodded and then quickly retreated.

Qiao'er remained silent until Lan Ye left, then she asked in a low voice.

"Miss, you can just let this servant do this kind of thing. Why do you need to let Guard Lan Ye do it? Isn't it a bit of a waste of her talent to let her stay by your side to protect you and go to inquire about this information?"

Xie Lingxi looked at Qiao'er with a smile.

"What, are you jealous?"

Qiao'er felt a little embarrassed.

"I am not jealous. I just think that I can do this little thing, so there is no need to ask Lan Ye to do it. Of course, I am a little jealous... Miss, you don't dislike me, do you?"

When Qiao'er said this, she felt a little aggrieved and a little scared. She had always been following the young lady, and the young lady always took her with her no matter whether she was doing good or bad things.

But this time, the young lady didn't let her go to inquire about the news of the Ge family. Wouldn't Qiaoer think too much?

Xie Lingxi had no choice but to stand up and pinch Qiao'er's nose.

"What are you thinking about? You can certainly go and get information about the Ge family, but you have to be very secretive and careful about it. Lan Ye is a skilled person, and as a bodyguard, he must have other abilities as well."

"She has her own way of finding out, and she can do it without being noticed. Can you? You serve me on weekdays. When it comes to serving tea, cooking, changing clothes, and embroidery, Lan Ye is definitely not as good as you. But when it comes to tracking and investigating, these things that require external work, you are definitely not as good as Lan Ye."

Having said that, Xie Lingxi smiled and patted Qiao'er's shoulder to comfort her.

"Don't worry, just wait for the arrangements. I have something for you to do, but the Ge family's affairs are more important right now, and Lan Ye happens to have the ability to do it, and I also want to test how capable she is."

"If it works out, you two will be my right-hand men in the future, one is good at literature and the other is good at martial arts. I will be more assured, young lady."

Qiao'er felt a little embarrassed when she heard the young lady praising her like that. In fact, in Qiao'er's heart, she really didn't realize that she had so many advantages.

Compared to embroidery with a needle, she envied Lan Ye more for being able to hold a knife and a gun, because she could protect the young lady at the critical moment.

Moreover, Lan Ye can also do this kind of inquiring work, but wouldn't it make him seem incompetent?

Now, from what the young lady said, my abilities are comparable to Lan Ye's. Otherwise, why would the young lady insist on calling them one the scholar and one the warrior?

He also said that he was the left-hand man and the right-hand man. No matter whether he was the left-hand man or the right-hand man, Qiao'er was very happy and said it immediately.

"Miss! You think so highly of me, I won't let you down no matter what I do. Miss, you praised me for my ability to smell, so I will read more books every day and I will definitely not do worse than Lan Ye!"

Xie Lingxi reached out and touched Lan Ye's head.

"That's right, you are worthy of being my Xie Lingxi's man, you are ambitious. Then you should read more books, preferably some medical books, and also learn how to manage accounts from the housekeeper."

"If I don't tell you to do that, you should go to my shop and walk around more. I don't ask you to master everything, but at least you should know a little bit. If these people dare to fool me in the future, you will be able to see it at a glance. Do you think you are very capable when you think this way?"

Qiao'er's breathing became heavier.

If I am really as omnipotent as the young lady said, then I am indeed very capable, even better than Lan Ye!

After all, although Lan Ye is good at fighting, his brain doesn't seem to be very good. At least he can hold the embroidery needle, but the opponent can't. Of course, he can't hold the sword either. So from this point of view, it's barely a draw.

But if I can improve in other aspects, Lan Ye will not be able to compare to me!

Qiao Er nodded immediately: "I understand! I will definitely not let you down, young lady. I will go buy some books later!"

Xie Lingxi was very satisfied with Qiao'er who was so motivated.

"Very good. I like your enthusiasm. If you really want to delve into it, go and tell the housekeeper and ask her to find a master to guide you. It would be great if you can get started."
