Cute fox's counterattack

In the next few days, Dongfang Chen did not appear in front of Xueyan, and the Dongfang Mansion was still busy, which often made him feel that he was an idler in the Dongfang Mansion, even though it was actually the case...

Seeing that it was neither too late nor too early, Xueyan hurriedly stood guard at the door of the accounting room. After a while, she saw the steward of the Dongfang Mansion coming out of it. Without saying a word, Xueyan immediately stepped forward, "Uncle Liu, you busy?"

Butler Liu looked at the accounts in his hand, and glanced at him slowly, his always kind brows were faintly worried, but he swept away his emotions in a moment, and smiled gently: "Not busy, Mr. Xueyan, what do you need?" Slave helped?"

Seeing that Butler Liu was unwilling to tell, Xueyan pretended that she hadn't noticed, and still said with a smile: "Uncle Liu, is elder brother very busy these days?"

"Does Xueyan want to see the young master? The young master should be in the study at this hour, you can go directly to find him, but these few days, the young master..."

"What's wrong, big brother?" Xueyan hurriedly asked.

Butler Liu sighed, and said, "Young Master Xueyan, let's go and have a look yourself, old slave..."

"I..." She lowered her head slightly as she spoke, as if she had made up her mind, she said, "I'll deliver today's dinner, and I'll go take a look at Big Brother."

"The old slave is going to tell the kitchen, Mr. Xueyan, please feel free."

I was a little dazed along the way, I didn't know how to get to the room, and the most dazed one was sitting on the stool when the knock on the door sounded "dong dong dong".

Opening the door, he looked at the boy standing outside the door and came back to his senses, "What's the matter?"

"Butler Liu asked me to invite Mr. Xueyan to the kitchen, saying that you will know when Mr. Xueyan has gone."

The boy left after speaking.

Only then did Xueyan remember what she had said to the housekeeper, and hurried out.

It didn't take long to arrive at the kitchen, butler Liu was standing far away from the door of the kitchen and saw him coming, with a smile on his face, "Xueyan Dongzi is sorry for your trouble."

Xueyan gasped slightly, "It's nothing."

Turn around and go into the kitchen to take the prepared basket, "I'll go find my elder brother, Uncle Liu, go get busy."

Standing in front of the door, Xueyan knocked on the door a few times, and upon hearing the response from inside, Qing Mai walked in.

There are two study rooms, divided into inside and outside. There are many books stored in the outside room. The wall on the left is a bookshelf, and the right side is connected to the inside room.

Xueyan turned into the inner room with the basket in her hand, and it was not difficult to see a table case under the window in the inner room, on which were placed many books and accounts, and a few volumes of calligraphy and paintings were placed on the outer edge on the right hand side, because of the Xueyan couldn't see the situation there clearly.

The people in front of the desk didn't pause because someone came in, and they were still handling the accounts in hand carefully.

The soft orange light stuck to the side face of the man, coating his calm face with a layer of brilliance.

Xueyan put the basket in her hand on the small table, just as she was about to call him to stop for dinner, she heard the other person's words in her ear.

"You go down first."

Xueyan raised her eyes in a daze, and felt a little wronged, but seeing that the other party hadn't raised her eyes, maybe she didn't know it was her. Thinking of this, she felt a little relieved and felt a lot more comfortable.

He was thinking a thousand times here, but the other party obviously didn't know.

Dongfang Chen saw that the other party was fine, but he felt strange that there was no movement when he heard his own words. He didn't want to take a casual look, just in time to see Xueyan's changing face.

"Why..." As soon as I uttered a word, I felt that I shouldn't have said that, so I changed it: "Why are you here?"

Hearing his words, Xueyan said in her heart: Sure enough.But after chewing for a while, he felt that he didn't like hearing these words, so he frowned and said, "I'm here to deliver food."

Following his words, Dongfang Chen glanced at the food on the table and frowned, "Why are you here to deliver the food?"

Seeing the change in his expression, Xueyan thought to herself: What's wrong with me delivering the food, do I need this expression?

He was immediately displeased, and his words could not help but be filled with anger.

"Since you don't like it, I'll take it out." After speaking, he really started to fight.

He had wronged Dongfang Chen, Dongfang Chen had no other intentions when he said this, but he was a little surprised when he saw that the food was delivered, and thought that the servants in the mansion had neglected him, and he didn't know that he wanted to deliver it himself.

Dongfang Chen put down the accounts in his hands, saw him bow his head to put them away, sighed and said: "I didn't say I don't like it, it's just that I let the servants do it."

After saying this, Dongfang Chen was afraid that he would dig into the corner again, so he quickly changed the subject: "Have you eaten yet?"

Xueyan shook her head.

Dongfang Chen pulled him over, and the two sat down together.

I haven't seen him for a few days, Dongfang Chen has lost a lot of weight, and there are some dark shadows around his eyelids, and he doesn't look energetic.

"Don't be too busy."

"Ah."

Looking at the steamed fish in front of her, Xueyan picked up the chopsticks and handed it to Dongfang Chen's bowl, saying, "Eat more."

"it is good."

"..."

A meal ends with the two talking to each other.

Dongfang Chen was about to call his servants to come in to clean up, but Xueyan started to do it by himself.

"Let the servants do these, be careful of the injuries on your hands." He hurriedly took his hand to check.

Xueyan was amused by his cautious look.

"It's all ready, don't worry." He brushed off his hand and continued to tidy up.

Dongfang Chen saw that he had cleaned up, and said: "From now on, let the servants do it, you don't need to do it."

Xueyan pursed her lips, and after a while she seemed puzzled and said, "Why won't my brother let me do it?"

The sentence "I don't like you doing this" almost blurted out, but the words lingered on the tip of my tongue and finally changed to: "This kind of thing is not suitable for you."

"Then... what does elder brother think I am suitable for?" He seemed to follow the other party's words, but there was a feeling that he had to get to the bottom of it.

Dongfang Chen frowned and tried hard to think, thinking for a while but didn't know how to answer.

Seeing that he was silent, Xueyan said to herself: "Brother is tired, let's take a rest first."

Dongfang Chen was still thinking about what he said just now, but before he could react, his hand was already held in his, and the slightly cold fingertips made him tremble, almost subconsciously pulling his hand away.

Looking at the empty palm, Xueyan's eyes fluctuated, and she withdrew her hand calmly.

"I'll talk to Uncle Liu later, and don't let other people come and disturb you." Before going out, he glanced at Dongfang Chen again.

Dongfang Chen wanted to call him, but he didn't know how to explain what he did just now... The moment their fingers touched, what flashed in his mind was... the scene of Hong Ling holding his hands, so...

Stretching out his hand and rubbing the center of his brows, he closed his eyes tiredly, shook his head to shake off the things in his mind, and Dongfang Chen opened his eyes again with the coolness behind him.Looking back, there is an orange haze, only the shadows of the trees whirling in the wind.

It's my own illusion, how can I feel like a light is on my back, it seems that I should take a good rest.

When I returned to my yard, my heart was always restless, and I felt upset when I thought of the evening just now.

"Brother Yan, Brother Yan..."

Hearing the voice behind him, he felt even worse. He quickened his pace and pretended not to hear it.

Seeing that the person in front of her walked even faster, Hong Ling scolded Dongfang Chen a thousand times in her heart, but she still pretended not to know, and just kept up with the person in front of her.

Finally the road ahead was blocked by people, Xueyan raised her head to look at the person in front of her, and said: "Hong Ling, what's the matter?" Her voice was clear and flat.

Hong Ling bit her lips and pretended not to know, "Brother Yan, we have been here for several days, I want Brother Yan to accompany me to go shopping together, I used to see Brother Yan come out to play, I also want to see him."

Xueyan's face softened slightly, remembering that she had been in the human world for so long and hadn't come out to play with that person much, she was also somewhat looking forward to it, and said, "I'm a little tired today, let's pass a few days."

"In a few days, it will be the Spring Festival in the world. There will definitely be more people at that time, so I can prepare for it while there are few people." In fact, these are all excuses. I go out with him like now because Dongfang Chen will be free during the Spring Festival. Then, Her elder brother Yan had fewer chances to spend time alone, besides, her father had already discovered her whereabouts yesterday, and she would have to go back in a few days, thinking of this, she became even more impatient.

Xueyan didn't know what she was thinking, he intuitively felt that the last time he shook hands with Hong Ling made Dongfang Chen angry, although he was tricked by this girl, but...he didn't want Dongfang Chen to misunderstand again.

"I'm really tired today. If you really want to go, then I'll ask Uncle Liu to send someone to go with you." He said and patted his head.

"No, I just want to go with Brother Yan." Hong Ling refused without thinking.

Xueyan was a little annoyed, "Hong Ling, don't make trouble for no reason."

Hong Ling's eyes turned red, and she immediately shouted: "Brother Yan, you have really changed, you used to love Hong Ling very much, but now Hong Ling refuses to let you go shopping with me, you don't love Hong Ling anymore... ..."

Xueyan had a headache, he felt that the lovely younger sister before was a little clingy now.

"Okay, I'll go with you."

Hong Ling immediately stopped the tears that were still in her eyes, and a sweet smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, but she hated someone very much in her heart.
