The villain is far from my CP!

The boss turned around angrily and entered the room, and closed the door with a bang, leaving the two juniors looking at each other.

Bai Qiao looked at Qi Changting, then at the sachet in his hand, and then thought of Chang Cen's words just now.

Gan!

I forgot it was ancient times!

The girl withdrew her hand back, and apologized a hundred times to her cp without love.

As for Qi Changting...

——"Hey, my subordinate actually has a guess, I don't know if I should say it or not."

He Cheng's words echoed in his mind again, with a subtle expression on his face.

"Cough," Yue Lan on the side couldn't stand it any longer, "So, why did Mr. Qi call my lady here?"

She bit the bullet and rescued two embarrassed young men and women.

Bai Qiao lowered his eyes, cleared his throat, and calmly turned the matter over.

But Qi Changting couldn't help but glance at Bai Qiao.

For some reason, he always felt that after this experience, the distance between the woman in front of him and him was no longer unreachable.

In front of her, he was contaminated with mortal dust, his mask was torn open, and the ropes that bound his body tightly loosened slightly, but he let out a sigh of relief.

It's just like……

The young man was not used to such a change, he pursed his lower lip, and defined it as: the feeling of being with He Cheng.

Anyway, Bai Qiao will be his confidant in the future, so it's okay now, he thought.

"There is something," Qi Changting pondered for a moment, and decisively pushed the blame to Chang Cen, "Although the governor has not yet decided whether to do it or not, I think we should find the girl in advance to discuss how to raise money, so as to be prepared .”

After Qi Changting finished speaking, his eyes stopped on the white bridge.

The boy is still gentle and polite, but Baiqiao's eyes are very familiar, very much like her previous life when she stared at the ATM machine and spit out money.

Bai Qiao: "..."

How can she get the money without even saying anything when the ATM machine spits out the money and has to insert the card and enter the password?

Seeing that Qi Changting really had no intention of explaining further, Bai Qiao had no choice but to uphold the principle of "try not to let the boss think he is stupid", and asked proactively, "My lord, do you want to build a dam?"

Qi Changting paused slightly, "How does the girl know?"

Bai Qiao felt guilty for a while, and lied that the only thing worth raising money for the county guard was to build the dam.

"But won't the DPRK and China directly allocate money to build the dam?" She asked what she had been wondering all along.

She vaguely remembered that in the original book, the hero waited until the government allocated funds before starting to build the dam.

Although the time was tight, he managed to return to Dongdu on the same day as the heroine and Jili, and gave the heroine a big surprise.

"It's not that simple." Qi Changting patiently explained the dredging matter clearly, "Master Chang said that the treasury may only be enough to repair the dam, and there will not be so much silver for dredging at the moment."

and……

"Besides, I have a friend. I need to go back to Dongdu before September [-]th. I need to go with him." Qi Changting thought for a while and said.

Baiqiao: Oh~~ I have a friend who is waiting for you in Dongdu~~~

Qi Changting didn't notice the girl's fluttering expression, and continued: "It will take [-] days for the imperial court to allocate funds. If we continue to dredge up the silt, we will definitely not be able to make it back, so..."

I don't want to desilt.

People in the world keep thinking about the people, but in the final analysis, since he is not the king, the people have nothing to do with him.

The boy didn't say the whole thing, but Baiqiao already understood.

It turned out that there was no dredging because I was in a hurry to go back to Dongdu.

With the wind blowing, her cp mood gradually sank, and at the same time, more scattered fragments in her memory were strung together.

In the original book, the male protagonist did not clear the silt, and never imagined that in the winter of the year, Huainan encountered the once-in-a-hundred-year ice flood.

The icy river had nowhere to go, flooded the towns backwards, and countless people died of freezing and starvation. Huainan's commerce was also hit hard, and tax revenue shrunk sharply. search.

Because dredging was never mentioned in the book, she always thought that this was an inevitable natural disaster, but she didn't think that this tragedy had a chance to be prevented.

Bai Qiao couldn't help but click his tongue.

——So, the hero's perfect character actually has a little love in mind?

But it's okay, let's see her break it back for him!

The carriage drove through the bustling market, and finally stopped in the north of Jiangdu City, which is the closest to the Huaihe River.

There is also a square market in the north of the city. Most of the stalls are set up by the villagers of the nearby villages who go out early and return at night every day, and most of the patrons are village residents on the south bank of the Huaihe River.

Compared with the counties in the west, the disaster situation in Jiangdu can only be regarded as drizzle, but there are still endless queues in the porridge shed.A ragged father lined up in the line, helplessly coaxing his crying daughter. In order to free up his hands to cook porridge, he had to let her ride on his neck.

"Be good, baby, look up and look far away, don't you cry?"

The little girl sat on her father's neck and looked around, and she stopped crying.

After a while, with tears in her eyes, she lowered her head and whispered to her father, "I saw far away, but I still couldn't find Aunt."

The little girl's voice was waxy, choking and hoarse, as clear and detailed as a mosquito, but it pierced her father's heart like the sharpest arrowhead.

At this moment, the noisy long street seemed to be completely silent, only his dry voice could be heard in his ears.

"Your mother, you are going to be a goddess in the river."

"She...she will bless my daughter."

The man couldn't continue, his eyes were red, but because he was protecting his daughter with one hand, and carrying the disaster relief food as precious as his life in the other, he couldn't wipe away his tears.

Tears hit the gray ground, splashing a few mud flowers.

Not far away, two tall horses stopped, and Bai Qiao sat on the horse and sighed softly.

"When life is difficult, wiping tears is a luxury."

She turned her head to glance at the young man beside her, and said in a low voice, "Young master actually wants to help them, right?"

The evening wind blew over the girl's hair and the sachet around her waist, and the smile on Qi Changting's lips gradually faded.

The originally turbulent emotions cooled down, his eyes moved, and finally returned to indifference.

"But I take care of the people, who will take care of me."

If Qi Jingmin really succeeds in marrying the prime minister's mansion, he would have to pay a huge price if he wanted to turn things around.

The young man waved his fan casually, and suddenly laughed again, "The girl is so kind, why don't you give up the opportunity to enter the Eastern Capital and stay and help them?"

The young man smiled like a spring breeze, as if he was saying a joke that had nothing to do with him, but shocking red marks had already appeared on his fingers on the fan bone, as if a beast would rush out of his heart as soon as he loosened his strength.

Surrounded by noisy crowds and a bustling market, he felt alone in the ice cellar, walking alone.

until,

"Me." The girl's translucent voice sounded beside him, as translucent as the smell of that unknown plant.

"what?"

"I said, I'll take care of you." The girl turned her head and looked over.

There is boundless calmness and confidence in her eyes, comparable to the fiery red glow in the sky.

"Isn't it just money? I'll raise it."

"If I'm [-]% sure, so that you don't have to wait for the government to allocate funds before starting work, you can enter the Eastern Capital before September [-]th."

"Young master, are you willing to fight for these common people?"

The author has something to say:

Qi Changting: I treat you like an ATM, but you always want to?I.

Bai Qiao: ...?
