Qing Yi passed the necklace over once again, and didn't let go even when Su Ruyi steadily caught it, "Miss Ru Yi, can I let go now?"

"How did you sell that?" I've already pulled it a few times, why aren't you letting go? "

Qing Yi was not angry. He released the necklace and apologized, "I was afraid that Miss Ru Yi's hands would shake.

"It's so rough." Su Ruyi looked at it for a while before unhappily pushing it back, and then pointed to the White Jade Bangle Bracelet on the counter, "This is not bad, let me take a look at it."

Qing Yi took out the bracelet, placed it on the counter and pushed it over. Seeing her being so careful, Su Ruyi could only pick up the bracelet unwillingly, and started to talk about it: "The jade is not bad, but the style is not new."

Qing Yi's expression was calm, with her here, he did not believe that Su Ruyi would do anything funny. Su Ruyi pointed to a few more jade ornaments for Qing Yi to show her before finally choosing an emerald jade hairpin.

She came to Xuanyuan Zhi's side, and asked bashfully, "brother Zhi, do you think this hairpin looks good?"

"Yes." Xuanyuan Zhi's face did not reveal any expression.

"brother Zhi, aren't you going to give Ruyi a new year gift?" Su Ruyi cordially pulled his arm. Xuanyuan Zhi dodged it with a face full of helplessness, "Choose for yourself if you want, I'll pay the bill."

Su Ruyi happily returned to the counter, provoking Qing Yi, then walked over to the other shop assistants and picked something out. Looking at her flaunting her strength, Qing Yi was annoyed. roasting king was also his master's man. Just as she wanted to go to the back hall without being bothered by what was happening, she saw Xuanyuan Zhi waving at her.

"Your Highness." Qing Yi went over, his expression cold.

"Everything she sees is recorded under This King's account."

Qing Yi still did not understand what happened, as Xuanyuan Zhi had already left the Atractylodes chinensis Schneid. She opened her eyes wide, did roasting king throw Su Ruyi down?

It was a great pleasure.

Su Ruyi was overjoyed. This was the first time brother Zhi had bought a present for him. And Atractylodes chinensis Schneid was also Chu Qingyao's shop. She believed that she would find out what had happened today soon.

Haha, Chu Qingyao, after you know about this, you better not die from anger!

When she picked out a Jade Rabbit Healing Ear Pendant and happily took it to find Xuanyuan Zhi, she realized that there was already no one there. She was surprised for a moment, and then caught hold of a shop assistant, "Where is roasting king? Where is he? "

"Miss, roasting king has left."

"What did you say?" How could Su Ruyi be willing to believe that? She pushed the shop assistant aside and found Qing Yi, "Where the hell has brother Zhi gone?"

Qing Yi's expression did not change, "Ru Yi, roasting king left ahead of time to inform you, if you see anything, just put it in his account."

Su Ruyi felt that it was so sarcastic, as though her previous complacency had turned into a joke in the eyes of others, she suddenly threw her earrings to the ground and reached out to push Qing Yi, "Get out of the way!"

Qing Yi laughed coldly, she moved her body and pushed her into the air, causing Su Ruyi's face to turn even uglier. Ignoring the strange looks everyone in the shop was giving her, she ran out in anger. She wanted to go back to the residence to find brother Zhi and ask him why he was doing this to her?

The doorman picked up the earrings on the floor, "Sister Qing Yi, the earrings are broken!"

"Wrap it up and send it to the Prince Zhi's Mansion." Qing Yi's face was ice-cold. She wanted to see whether the Duke would side with the wangfei or Su Ruyi this time around.

When Su Ruyi returned to his residence, the first person he met was Qi Sha, "Qi Sha, stop, where is brother Zhi?"

"Ru Yi xiaojie, the prince has entered the palace. Is something the matter?"

"Scram!" Su Ruyi was furious.

Once he left her line of sight, Qi Sha's face turned cold. Compared to Princess Qian, Su Ruyi was not even worth looking at. Even if the princess was in a bad mood, she would not vent her anger on them.

It seemed that in order for him to live a good life, he had to pray more in his heart. Don't ever marry Su Ruyi.

Not long after, the broken earring was brought in front of Xuanyuan Zhi, causing him to look displeased. He was not an idiot, there were so many shops in Jingli, yet Su Ruyi brought him there.

When opening the door to do business, naturally they had to welcome guests from all over. When Su Ruyi wanted to go, the Atractylodes chinensis Schneid had to welcome him. However, it was too much for her to refuse to buy someone's jade ornaments.

"Your Highness, look at this …" Qi Sha was saying that they should pay him back or not.

"No brains." Xuanyuan Zhi got up disdainfully. Since the owner of the Atractylodes chinensis Schneid was at the Duke Palaces, why should he give up his distance and run to the shop to repay the money?

When he arrived at Blue Luan Courtyard and saw Chu Qingyao sitting down to drink tea, Hong Tan was waiting by her side.

"Your servant greets the prince."

"Go down!"

Chu Qingyao already knew what had happened in Atractylodes chinensis Schneid. She felt very uncomfortable in her heart! Who knew that Xuanyuan Zhi would come right after he left. She didn't even get up. "How does Your Highness have the time to come to my place?" No need to accompany your Ru Yi?

Xuanyuan Zhi sat down opposite to her, picked up her cup and lightly sipped. Only then did he take out a bag of things from his sleeves, "A broken pair of earrings, look at the price?"

Chu Qingyao sneered, was she treating her beloved girl like an empress? Xuanyuan Zhi, you delivered these to me for my unimaginable asking price. "Her red lips slightly opened," One hundred thousand silver. "

Xuanyuan Zhi was startled, why didn't he see that the earring was so valuable? "Are you sure it's a hundred thousand?"

"I'm sure, I'm sure." Chu Qingyao looked at the cup with disdain. With Xuanyuan Zhi's saliva on top of the cup, how could she drink?

"Originally, this pendant wasn't worth that much money, but she dropped something in my shop, scaring away some of my old customers. She should compensate me for the lost profits, right?"

Fine! Xuanyuan Zhi expressed that he had nothing to say.

"Accounting!" Xuanyuan Zhi's gaze fell on the tea water and looked at the yellow green leaves floating in the water.

We, the Atractylodes chinensis Schneid, have always dealt in silver, never on credit. " What a joke. If he sent her away with a single sentence, when would he return the money? You want me to pet your woman for you?

Dream on!

Chu Qingyao would never admit that she was just jealous.

"Chu Qingyao, you're ruthless!" Xuanyuan Zhi took out a dozen silver notes, "Do you have enough to count?"

Chu Qingyao took the banknotes unceremoniously, and said half sarcastically and half mockingly, "For roasting king to spend so much money for his love, this little girl is willing to admit defeat."

She didn't even realize that her words were sour.

However, Xuanyuan Zhi could tell that he was in a good mood, after sitting by her side and drinking two pots of tea, he still did not want to leave.

"I'll have to trouble you to tell Ru Yi, that you still want to throw your jade ornament. Go ahead to my Atractylodes chinensis Schneid and pay the price for doing so." After being smoked by the water vapor, Chu Qingyao's eyes became moist. Xuanyuan Zhi was dumbstruck, wanting to help her wipe the water droplets on her eyelashes.

Hong Tan came in from outside. "Princess, Ru Yi is here."

Chu Qingyao squeezed out a cold smile, "Tell her that the prince is about to leave."

Xuanyuan Zhi waved away the water vapor in front of him. Hong Tan, tell her that this duke will be staying with the wangfei today, and tell her to leave. "

Chu Qingyao's eyes suddenly widened. Xuanyuan Zhi, what are you trying to do?

Before Hong Tan could go out, Su Ruyi had already entered. With a wronged expression, he pounced towards Xuanyuan Zhi, "brother Zhi, why didn't you wait for Ru Yi?"

"This King has matters to attend to." Xuanyuan Zhi reached out to stop her. Su Ruyi looked embarrassed, and stood still.

Chu Qingyao lazily walked to the soft couch at the side and half leaned against it. She only wished that these two eyesore would hurry up and leave so that she could sleep for a while.

"brother Zhi, Aunt Mian asked me to come and get you." Su Ruyi glanced at Chu Qingyao.

"Tell Aunt Mian that I'll be there later, when the time comes, I'll accompany her for a meal."

"Then let's go to the kitchen and tell it to cook a few more dishes that you like to eat." Su Ruyi walked out happily.

Chu Qingyao lifted her eyelids. So it turned out that loving a person meant that she would love them to the point of being humble.

Xuanyuan Zhi really didn't want to leave, but he couldn't think of a reason to stay. He looked at Chu Qingyao, hoping that she would open her mouth to ask her to stay. However, Chu Qingyao was lazily leaning there, and her eyelids were about to fall out.

How much did this woman dislike him?

His chest was clogged with discomfort as he angrily walked away at a brisk pace.

Chu Qingyao did not care whether Xuanyuan Zhi went to eat there or not. She took an early rest and called for the butler the next day. She told him to give the servants the monthly allowance and bounty money in advance so that they could have a good New Year.

Plus, she had a lot of things to do at the end of the year, so she worked until late at night. He rubbed his sore neck and was about to go to bed when he heard a sound coming from the yard. After calling Hong Tan, the two of them carried the lantern and walked out.

"Princess, someone seems to be over there." Hong Tan held up the lantern, shining it as far as he could into the distance.

She looked towards the direction of the light. There was a shadow of a person standing under the tree at the entrance of the courtyard.

"Let's go take a look." She bravely walked over, and now she could clearly see that it was Xuanyuan Zhi.

"Prince, why are you here?"

Xuanyuan Zhi did not speak, his pitch-black eyes seemed to gaze into the bottomless abyss as he stood there facing the cold wind. His clothes fluttered in the wind, and a layer of loneliness shrouded his body.

"Your Royal Highness, what's wrong?" Chu Qingyao nervously pulled on his hand, choking on the strong smell of the alcohol on his body. Also, why were his hands so cold?

"Xuanyuan Zhi, how long have you been standing here? "Come on in with me." She supported him as they walked. They walked for half an hour on a path that was clearly not too far away. After entering the house, Chu Qingyao sneezed twice. However, she didn't pay attention to herself.

"Hong Tan, go heat up some hot water and feed it to Your Highness." She helped Xuanyuan Zhi up to the bed and helped him take off his clothes to cover himself with.

After Hong Tan left the room, she immediately started to measure his temperature. Thankfully, his physique was good and he did not have a high fever. After the hot water was boiled, she let Hong Tan add some honey on top of it and helped him drink.

After a busy day, she was so tired that she had to put on a pair of quilts and sleep inside. In a daze, an arm suddenly wrapped around her, startling her. Seeing that the person behind her had stopped moving, she then went back to sleep.

She was so tired from her sleep, as if she had just had a dream about herself and a man. It was only because that man's body was so cold, that she shivered and shuddered.
