"General's Mansion's family banquet will be held in a few days. Since this is the first family banquet since you have arrived at General's Mansion, you cannot refuse to participate." When Yan Qianxu returned, he saw Ji Shuangshuang sitting at the table and reading as he spoke to her.

Ji Shuangshuang blinked, she placed down the book in her hand, and casually picked up the cup of water on the table to drink, "What did you say? Say that again! " Why did she feel that Yan Qianxu had changed since she returned here?

She had really not seen Yan Qianxu, who dared to scam her so many times. I can't tell her the truth until the end, okay? Would his conscience not hurt him? If he knew what she was thinking, he would probably say that he had no conscience.

"Didn't you hear me?" Yan Qianxu glanced to the side, what he had just said was said at a normal volume, how could she not hear it clearly?

Ji Shuangshuang did not want to bother with Yan Qianxu, so she tilted her head slightly, and did not say a word.

Yan Qianxu looked at Ji Shuangshuang and asked, "What? How did I offend you? " Recently, he hadn't had the time to interact with Ji Shuangshuang, so he didn't know how he had offended her.

However, he had still taught Ji Shuangshuang martial arts. Of course, she would only pay attention to him when she practiced martial arts. Normally, she wouldn't say anything to him. He couldn't figure out what he had done wrong. It caused Ji Shuangshuang to be so cold to him.

Ji Shuangshuang glanced at Yan Qianxu, "Offended me? "No, how could you possibly have offended me?" He did not offend her, but he did not explain the situation in the manor to her clearly.

"Don't tell me it's because there are some things I didn't explain clearly to you? If you want to know, you can ask the maid. They know the situation in the Residence better than I do. " Yan Qianxu was also a smart person, he quickly figured out the crux of the problem and said to Ji Shuangshuang.

He believed that there were some things that did not require his explanation. With regards to the matters of the manor, if Ji Shuangshuang really wanted to know, she could ask the maid. There was no need to wait for him to explain it. There was always something he couldn't remember.

Ji Shuangshuang did not speak, she acknowledged that Yan Qianxu was right.

She shouldn't blame Yan Qianxu, it wouldn't make sense if she really blamed him.

"Be a bit more obedient. If you want to know anything, you can ask the maid." Yan Qianxu comforted Ji Shuangshuang.

"I understand. There are some things I want to ask you." Ji Shuangshuang looked at him, "Have you told the maid about the things between us?" She did not ask this out of hand. She just wanted to know if the maid knew whether their marriage was real or fake.

This question stunned Yan Qianxu. He did not expect her to focus his attention here, and immediately said: "This is a matter between us, there is no need for me to explain it to anyone, nor is there a need to tell anyone."

What he said made Ji Shuangshuang understand, "That maid of yours has a good eye, she seems to have seen that the relationship between us is not just on the surface."

Yan Qianxu looked at Ji Shuangshuang in confusion, not knowing who she was referring to.

"It's that Xia Yue fellow." Seeing that he still did not understand, Ji Shuangshuang explained everything to him.

Xia Yue? Who was that? Which maid? Yan Qianxu expressed that he didn't know, but why was Ji Shuangshuang's focus different from his?

"I don't know what they are called. If you don't think she's fit to be with you, you can change her." Yan Qianxu's answer was very direct.

He had no opinions towards the maid, but if Ji Shuangshuang felt that it was inappropriate, he could change her.

She had wanted to hear his opinion, but he had told her that he didn't even know the name of the maid. How was she supposed to respond?

"What's wrong?" Looking at the expressionless face, Yan Qianxu asked.

"I don't know what to say."

"Will you be going to the feast then?" He wanted to know that now. Nothing else was important, and when he said this matter, he saw Ji Shuangshuang looking at him with disdain. He was worried that Ji Shuangshuang wouldn't go.

Ji Shuangshuang also wanted to know, "Can I not go?" Family banquets, she felt, were also a form of banqueting, as the saying went: banquets are not good banquets. As such, it was better not to take part in such activities.

"You don't want to go?" Yan Qianxu raised his eyebrows and looked at her, "Don't you know that a banquet is a place where we can get closer to each other?"

She knew this, but the problem was that no one here was satisfied with her identity, so she might as well not go.

"Do you think that someone is satisfied with my identity? Or do you feel that I am acknowledged by your family? "

"You can't say it like that. You're a member of my family too. My family is also your family. " Yan Qianxu sat beside Ji Shuangshuang, and said with a serious face.

Ji Shuangshuang glanced at him but did not say a word. Was this person a little too involved in the drama? Didn't he know about their relationship? What on earth was he thinking that they were a family?

She did not understand what he was thinking, but she did not want to pursue it.

"What is it? Are you sure you don't want to go over? " Looking at the indifferent person, Yan Qianxu couldn't help but ask.

"It doesn't matter if I go or not. There will always be people who want to do something to me." Ji Shuangshuang still understood what other people thought of her.

Faced with the matters at the rear courtyard, it wasn't as if Yan Qianxu couldn't do anything. However, even if he could protect her for a while, he couldn't protect her for a lifetime! Furthermore, Ji Shuangshuang had never lived dependent on men.

If she lived by him. Then, she wouldn't even know how to practice martial arts! It was because he saw her diligence that Yan Qianxu felt that he should not help her all the time.

"You have your own thoughts. All I can do is give you the manpower to do what you want. If nothing unexpected happens, you can leave the manor after this feast. " Yan Qianxu thought about it, then decided to give Ji Shuangshuang some motivation.

Everyone liked to be inspired, and it just so happened that he knew what Ji Shuangshuang wanted, so it wouldn't be too much to use it to encourage Ji Shuangshuang.

Ji Shuangshuang glanced at Yan Qianxu, and said: "Are you sure I'll be able to leave the Palace very soon?" It wasn't that she didn't believe him, but this matter of leaving the manor was something she had been thinking about for a long time.

"Do you think I'd lie to you?" Yan Qianxu was a little dissatisfied with her questioning, and did not bother to argue with her, but only asked his a question.

This question was not hard to answer and Ji Shuangshuang herself knew that Yan Qianxu had never lied to her before. She only shook her head slightly. "You know, I've been in the General's Mansion for too long, I don't even know what the sky outside is like."

Yan Qianxu didn't think that it was as exaggerated as Ji Shuangshuang said, as a look of helplessness flashed past her face: "Is it as exaggerated as you say? Then let me tell you, what the sky outside looks like, it's just like the sky above General's Mansion. "

"Nonsense! How can the sky outside be as oppressive as the sky in the mansion? " Ji Shuangshuang disagreed with what he said.
