  Chapter 65 Reflection

  Xin You didn't answer He Qingxiao's question, and asked again: "Did you go to the south?"

  If it hadn't been for Xin You's previous two reminders in the name of physiognomy, and all of them had happened, He Qingxiao would have guessed that the other party had investigated him after hearing this.

  Now, he was shocked by the advanced physiognomy of the girl in front of him.

   Isn't this a bit too amazing?

   "Yes, I went to the south on a business trip."

   "Can you tell me the specific place?"

  He Qingxiao showed an apologetic smile: "This is inconvenient to disclose."

  Xin You pulled the corners of her lips into a smile, and continued to use the guise of physiognomy: "It's okay if it's inconvenient. Mr. He, did you see blood on your business trip?"

  He Qingxiao's eyes shrank, but he didn't answer.

Xin You understood the answer in his silence, clenched her fist hard, and said calmly, "I just want to remind Master He that this trip to the south may bring you bad luck in the future. Be careful."

   "Thank you Miss Kou for reminding me, I will be careful." There was a smile in He Qingxiao's eyes again.

   This made Xin You sure that the topic just now was something He Qingxiao didn't want to bring up with others.

   Tolerance, secret affairs, trip to the south in April, everything that was asked was really no luck.

  Xin You laughed at herself, and when she was about to turn around, she asked out of nowhere: "Is it Wanyang?"

  He Qingxiao's pupils trembled, and his usual calm face was full of surprise.

   is Wanyang.

  The secret and inexplicable expectation in Xinyou's heart was completely wiped out, and it returned to death.

  She turned around, walked forward slowly but firmly, and could feel a line of sight falling on her all the time.

  She knew that what she couldn't help but ask in the end would shock He Qingxiao and even doubt her.

  What does it matter? The revenge of killing her mother will never end, she can't find the wrong person. And no matter how Mr. He investigates, she is Kou Qingqing, the cousin of the Shaoqing Mansion in the eyes of the world.

  He Qingxiao watched Xin You leave, feeling ups and downs.

  Can physiognomy really be so accurate? How did Ms. Kou, an orphan girl who lives in a shelter, learn physiognomy?

  If the drop of the flower pot was possibly designed in advance, the officer arrested the day before yesterday drew a dagger hidden in his sleeve and attacked him, so it is impossible for Ms. Kou to control her.

  No matter how unbelievable He Qingxiao finds it, he can only accept the fact that Miss Kou is an unborn fortune teller.

  Thinking of Xin You's reminder again, He Qingxiao unconsciously smiled.

  Xin You didn't go back to the East Courtyard, but recalled the details in the picture, and walked onto the dark street.

  People are coming and going on the street, flags are flying, and the smell of wine, tea and human voices are intertwined into a capital full of smoke and fire.

  Xin You walked through the restaurants and teahouses.

  In the picture, He Qingxiao is in the elegant room, and it is impossible to tell which teahouse it is. But looking out from the window of the elegant room, you can see a blue wine flag with Yuelai Restaurant written on it.

  She stopped and asked a middle-aged man who looked like a drinker: "Excuse me, uncle, do you know Yuelai Restaurant?"

   "Yuelai restaurant?" The middle-aged man looked at Xinyou with a strange look in his eyes, "Which Yuelai restaurant is the girl asking? There are three Yuelai restaurants in the capital that I know of."

  Xin You said politely: "I only know Yuelai Restaurant, but I don't know which one. Uncle, can you tell me the locations of these three Yuelai restaurants?"

   "There is one nearby, and another in Nancheng..."

  After listening to the middle-aged man, Xin You gave a salute: "Thank you for letting me know, uncle."

  Seeing that Xinyou was about to leave, the middle-aged man couldn't help but remind him: "It's going to be dark soon, you better not run around, a little girl."

  Xin You thanked again, and walked to the nearby Yuelai Restaurant.

  Under the wall not far away, two idle men looked at each other with excitement.

   "That little girl seems to be alone."

   "Tsk, you are brave enough, not only alone, but also dare to talk to strangers casually."

   "It's great to be brave. If you are a coward, stay at home honestly. How could you be bumped into by us. Go, come to live."

  Young and beautiful, as long as these two points occupy a little bit, this kind of idler can be distracted, let alone both.

  Xin You noticed that someone was following her, so she didn't stop.

   This kind of street bastard, she used to see a lot when she was running around alone. She is not very capable, but her heart is bad enough. She is usually knocked out and thrown at the gate of the yamen.

   Right now, she doesn't have the heart to argue with this kind of person, so Xin You picks people up and walks around, not giving them a chance to strike.

   Yuelai Restaurant has arrived.

  Xin You looked sideways at the opposite of the restaurant, which was a **** shop.

   Not here.

  Xin You didn't expect to find it all at once, so she sighed softly and walked towards the next Yuelai restaurant.

  After turning the corner and leaving the main street, the road suddenly became deserted, and the sound of footsteps approached behind him.

  Xin You frowned, and before turning around, she heard screams.

   "My lord, spare my life, my lord, spare my life!"

  He Qingxiao ordered his subordinates with no expression on his face: "Send these two Xiaoxiao to Bingmasi Yamen."

"yes."

  The two idlers were taken away by Jin Linwei, and He Qingxiao strode towards Xin You.

   "Why is Miss Kou alone?"

   "It's okay to go out for a walk. Those two people—"

   "Just now, I saw those two people looking sneaky and following Miss Kou all the time. They must be kidnappers. It's getting late, and it's not safe for Miss Kou to walk alone. I'll take you back to the bookstore."

  Refused to come to his mouth, and was swallowed by Xin You: "This is too much trouble for Mr. He."

   "No trouble, I have nothing else to do." He Qingxiao raised his feet and walked towards the bookstore, deliberately slowing down.

  The lights of thousands of families have been lit up, reflecting each other with the stars in the sky. The capital city is full of vitality not long after nightfall, and the atmosphere is relaxed and leisurely, which is different from the busyness of the day.

  Xin You walked silently, and glanced at the man walking beside him from the corner of her eye.

  There are probably more than the three Yuelai restaurants in the capital, so which one will He Qingxiao go to?

  He Qingxiao twitched his eyebrows slightly.

  Miss Kou seems to be looking at him, is there something wrong?

  At this moment, he felt a little uncomfortable for no reason, and walked forward without squinting as if he hadn't noticed anything.

  The two were silent all the way until they arrived at the corner door of Qingsong Bookstore.

  He Qingxiao stopped: "Miss Kou, go in quickly. If you go out in the future, you'd better bring a maid to protect you."

   "I see, thank you Mr. He for sending you off. Mr. He should go back to rest earlier." Xin You bent her knees and entered the east courtyard through the corner gate without looking back.

  He Qingxiao stood where he was, thoughtful.

   I don't know if it's an illusion, but Miss Kou's attitude towards him seems to be different from the previous days. Although he still looked so polite, he inadvertently showed indifference.

   It's not that you can't be indifferent, but such a change will not be without reason.

   Could it be that he thinks that he often reads books, only to read but not to buy?

  He Qingxiao thought about it and could only think of this possibility.

  Xin You was about to go out the next day when she met Liu Zhou who was in a daze.

   "Boss, let me tell you a strange thing, Mr. He bought all those travel notes!"
