Chapter 411 Playing the piano and flute?
Li Xingyun calmed down, thinking that maybe he was overthinking it, so he nodded and said, "Okay, then I'll trouble Sister Xiaoyu!"
"You are too polite, sir. Please follow me!" Ye Xiaoyu smiled slightly, bowed, then turned around and led the way.
The moment she turned around, Li Xingyun's eyes inadvertently fell on her collar. He saw that the button that was originally fastened had suddenly broken, revealing a small piece of white skin, like a bottomless ravine, which attracted people's imagination.
However, Ye Qingcheng seemed completely oblivious to this. Her expression remained calm, unchanging, and she didn't even bother to hide it. She simply let Li Xingyun admire this "scenery," and then, with light steps, led Li Xingyun towards the courtyard.
Li Xingyun followed behind Ye Qingcheng, his eyes unconsciously drawn to her swaying and erect figure. While admiring this wonderful "scenery", he secretly wondered where Ye Xiaoyu had gone.
Since Ye Qingcheng had the audacity to bring Li Xingyun to Ye Xiaoyu's residence, she must have been absolutely confident in her plan, certain that it would not be discovered. In this case, Ye Xiaoyu was in great danger, and her fate was uncertain!
Li Xingyun secretly sighed for Ye Xiaoyu in his heart. He couldn't help but feel sorry for his mother's maid. However, just as he was immersed in his own thoughts, Ye Qingcheng had quietly arrived at the gate of the courtyard.
She stopped and was about to say something to Li Xingyun, but unexpectedly, Li Xingyun was so distracted at the moment that he didn't notice her presence at all. As a result, Li Xingyun ran straight into Ye Qingcheng like a headless fly!
According to common sense, even if Li Xingyun was distracted, he should be able to detect someone in front of him. However, when facing Ye Qingcheng, he seemed to have lost all perception and was completely unaware of her presence.
"Ouch..." Ye Qingcheng could have easily avoided the collision, but for some reason, she chose not to dodge. With a coquettish cry, she gently lay in Li Xingyun's arms like a soft sheep.
This sudden situation caught Li Xingyun off guard. His heartbeat instantly accelerated and his face flushed red. He immediately realized his loss of composure and hurriedly jumped back, keeping a certain distance from Ye Qingcheng.
"Um... I'm sorry... I... I was distracted!" Li Xingyun stuttered, his voice revealing obvious panic and uneasiness. He was really afraid that Ye Qingcheng would misunderstand that he was deliberately taking advantage of her. What if she got angry and gave him a "crush to death"? That would be terrible!
"No...it's okay! I'm just a servant, sir, you don't need to apologize to me!" Ye Qingcheng waved her hands quickly, a trace of panic on her face.
However, her eyes inadvertently revealed a hint of disappointment and regret, as if Li Xingyun's reaction was completely beyond her expectations.
Seeing this, Li Xingyun couldn't help but feel moved. He keenly captured Ye Qingcheng's emotional change at that moment.
"Hmm?" He responded softly, frowning slightly, as if he was a little surprised by Ye Qingcheng's reaction.
As a seasoned womanizer, Li Xingyun knew all about women's minds. Ye Qingcheng's slightest change naturally escaped his notice.
However, he was not sure whether he had seen it correctly. After all, it was only a moment. Maybe it was just his illusion?
"Sir, we've arrived at my courtyard!" Ye Qingcheng's gentle voice echoed. She bowed respectfully, like a dancing butterfly, light and graceful. Her large figure, half-disappearing in the sunlight, captivated the imagination. She smiled, extended her delicate hand, and gestured in a way that invited him in, as if the entire courtyard were awaiting Li Xingyun's arrival.
Seeing this, Li Xingyun couldn't help but feel moved, but he still forced himself to nod calmly, trying his best to maintain his original habit, and slowly walked into the courtyard.
After entering the courtyard, Li Xingyun looked around. The courtyard was elegantly and peacefully decorated, with flowers, plants, and trees scattered in an orderly manner, giving people a sense of tranquility and far-reaching tranquility. However, his eyes did not linger on these beautiful views, but were searching for a single figure—Fenfang.
"By the way, where's Fenfang? Does she live with you?" Li Xingyun asked casually, but he was actually a little anxious. He secretly prayed that Fenfang was safe, while also testing Ye Qingcheng's reaction.
Ye Qingcheng smiled slightly, slowly closed the courtyard door, and then replied softly: "Fenfang has gone out. She is not young anymore, and it is time for her to find a sweetheart and start a family."
Li Xingyun's heart sank after hearing this. He knew it was just Ye Qingcheng's excuse; Fenfang must have been hidden by her. He couldn't help but marvel at Ye Qingcheng's clever tactics. She had hidden these two people so well right under her nose, and the entire Qin Palace hadn't noticed at all. How ironic!
"Sir, please take a seat. I'll bring you some snacks and a pot of tea." Ye Qingcheng said softly, a smile on her lips. Her voice was as gentle and melodious as a yellow oriole singing in a valley. Her beautiful eyes flickered, glancing at Li Xingyun, then she turned lightly and walked into the boudoir.
Seeing this, Li Xingyun quickly responded, "Okay!" His eyes followed Ye Qingcheng's figure, and looking at her graceful back, a strange feeling surged in his heart.
After Ye Qingcheng entered her boudoir, Li Xingyun's thoughts gradually returned to his mission. This time, his mission was to capture Ye Qingcheng and improve her favorability. This mission seemed simple, but in reality, it was fraught with difficulty. After all, Ye Qingcheng was no ordinary woman; she had lived for thousands of years and possessed terrifying strength!
Li Xingyun couldn't help but smiled bitterly and shook his head, thinking to himself: "It's not easy to improve a woman's favorability, let alone a thousand-year-old demon like Ye Qingcheng!"
However, a mission is a mission, no matter how difficult it is, it must be completed. Li Xingyun took a deep breath, calmed himself down, and began to think about a response strategy.
He recalled all the ways he had come up with to improve girls' favorability—nine in total! But he wasn't sure if any of these methods would work for Ye Qingcheng. After all, Ye Qingcheng was too powerful. If he chose the wrong method, he'd be crushed to ashes in an instant!
"You can't eat hot tofu in a hurry! Huh... Let's be safe first!" Li Xingyun took a deep breath, then slowly exhaled, thinking to himself.
