So... is this you?

Looking at the soft and beautiful ball of fur, Qi Gu inadvertently felt the mother's love surging in her heart.

After taking two steps forward, the cat woke up vigilantly, staring at the person with a pair of light brown eyes warily.

"They won't come in anymore. Don't be afraid." Qigu approached tiptoely, for fear of scaring it, "Come here, okay?"

The cat seemed to be full of fear of the oncoming shadow, it retreated two steps, and jumped out the moment Qi Gu really jumped up.

"Qigu, thank you..."

Qigu turned her head in response, and the person sitting by the round table was still her beautiful Mr. Shuang.

"You, you, you... really scared me."

"Fan Shuang is ashamed of Qigu."

Seeing his face like a little daughter-in-law, Qigu waved her hands generously: "There is no need to say that."

"Then you... aren't afraid?"

"Ha, Qigu, I haven't seen anything. From the day I hit Mr. Shuang, I knew you were not a mortal." Qigu said solemnly, "But... I still have something to ask."

"please say."

Qigu looked at Fanshuang's jade-like face, and couldn't help leaning forward to investigate carefully:

"Master Shuang...won't eat me?"

Fanshuang was surprised at first, and then laughed: "No. Qi Gu can rest assured about this."

"Ah, that's it." After confirming this fatal question, Qi Gu didn't ask any more questions.After thinking about it for a while, I asked another tricky question, "Mom just won't come for the time being, but the two days that Qigu promised without authorization is always a deadline. I wonder if your son will recover within two days?"

"I... can be fine."

Qi Gu frowned: "How do you say that?"

"Recently, my energy has been damaged, and the time I can maintain my human form is not as good as before. If I can return to my original form for one or two hours in a day to recover some energy, it will naturally be the same as usual."

"I see." Qi Gu nodded solemnly, "Don't worry, I will keep it a secret, so that you can rest at ease, my lord."

"Qigu's kindness, Fanshuang, is endlessly grateful."

Seeing that he was about to kneel down, Qi Gu hurried forward to support him: "This, this... How dare I be that? No matter how familiar you and I are, we must not break the rules of master and servant. Don't be polite."

"Yes." Fanshuang thought that it would be better to entrust this concern to one person than to bear it alone, not to mention Qigu is a reliable person worthy of entrustment.Feeling a heavy stone fall to the ground, Fanshuang could finally think about something else, "Oh, by the way, have any guests asked about me these days?"

"You're asking about that Yue..." Qigu's face suddenly changed with a sly smile, and then she rushed out of the room after the shadow that flashed past, "Who is it?! How dare you come to eavesdrop on the conversation , What a villain!"

Fanshuang walked slowly to Qigu's side and looked left and right, and saw that the entire corridor on the second floor was empty, so she persuaded, "Don't worry about it, you must have misjudged."

Qigu's words came true.Two days is indeed a deadline.

First, Li Yuanwai's funeral and obituary news spread in the city early in the morning. It was said that he contracted a serious illness for no reason. Xia Nange, in a daze, clamored to see Fanshuang, saying that he had something important to tell.

Mama Yuan was stopped of course, she refused to let her see no matter how much money she had, and she even learned what Qigu said in a decent way—in case something goes wrong, that wronged soul will attach itself to the young master and run amok. But there is no more money to take.No matter how you think about it, you can't do this kind of business that has no tomorrow.

Mama Yuan admired her foresight, but she didn't expect that the second young master of the Yue family had a very stubborn temper, and refused to leave no matter what, she had to bring the words to her in person.This attitude made Yuan's mother very puzzled, and Jin He and Xiao Zhi who were beside her were even more jealous.However, Yue Chulin insisted on seeing Fanshuang, so he took a long time to take a step back and said that if he could see Qigu, he would be able to bring his words to bear.

But Qigu over there said that she would take care of Fanshuang unwaveringly and would not be free, so she had to ask Young Master Yue to condescend to go upstairs.Mama Yuan scolded Aunt Qi for being neither big nor small, but before she finished scolding, Yue Chulin really thanked her and hurried up.Only Mama Yuan and the three were left to sigh to themselves that there really is such a master who doesn't like to put on airs in this city.

"Seventh Aunt is not allowed to go out to greet her because of trivial matters. I hope Young Master Yue will forgive me."

"Don't be too polite. Chulin is short on time and shouldn't stay for a long time. Since Fanshuang is not feeling well, I won't bother you anymore." Yue Chulin looked at the closed door and felt uneasy for a long time, but still Straight to the point, he said, "Master Li's funeral is going on today, and Fanshuang may be in trouble once the funeral is over."

"Why?"

"This...it's a long story. Master Li was seriously ill for several days and sought medical treatment to no avail, so the Li family invited a Feng Shui master to investigate the practice at home, pointing out that it was the zero dew stone that took Master Li's life. The zero Lushi was presented as a birthday gift by my hand, I should have been involved, but the mage deduced that... this deduction is really puzzling."

"Master Yue, you just say so."

"The mage said that the zero dew stone was surrounded by evil spirits, and the evil spirit was too strong. In terms of numerology, it was incompatible with Mr. Li, which caused people to die. But I think the zero dew stone should be a gift from the gods. How could it be infected with demons? gas?"

Qigu bowed her head quickly when she heard this, and twirled her fingers around the corner of the handkerchief.

"In the past few days, I have been interrogated many times by the young masters of the Li family, but I still dare not speak out about Xia Nange, let alone come here. I am afraid that with the temperament of the young masters of the Li family, they will definitely investigate to the end. That Ling Lushi It was stolen once before, and once this layer is found, Fanshuang will inevitably be involved. Today, the Li family has a big funeral, and I wonder if someone will come to watch me, so I want to report to Fanshuang and let him It's better to hide first."

"This...isn't too far-fetched." Qigu thought about Yue Chulin's words in disbelief, "The Li family can be called one of the best big families in the city. Don't you let the lowly little boy go?"

Yue Chulin sighed: "I thought so too, but I have also heard and seen how the Li family punished those ignorant servants. This is a matter of life and death, and ordinary people can't let it go, let alone the famous Li family. Family? Fortunately, I have a family background to back them up and they dare not act rashly, but..."

"I understand. Young Master Yue's kind words of help, Qigu thanked Fanshuang first."

Yue Chulin nodded, felt at ease after explaining the words, and looked at the closed door lingeringly, and then reluctantly said goodbye.
