Chapter 270 - Interlacing of Ten Fingers

"This King never knew that wangfei would have such feelings!" Xiao Qingqian could not help but laugh and retort.

Wei Qing frowned, "Am I that kind of woman with a venomous heart in your eyes?"

"It might have been in the beginning, but now it isn't!"

After all, not many people could cry so bitterly over a wolfhound.

"Tell me, will the county magistrate really send the dog general to the Prince Chu’s Mansion?" Wei Qing felt that the atmosphere was not right and quickly changed the topic.

"Do you think This King is just decorating?" Xiao Qingqian asked instead of answering.

"You're not just for show, but it's a dog after all."

"A dog that This King has taken a fancy to is no ordinary dog!" Xiao Qingqian led his horse and arrived at an inn, "Let's leave it here, it looks pretty good!"

Wei Qing raised her eyes, and looked at the huge board, "Ok."

The waiter saw that the two of them were well-dressed and had an extraordinary temperament, so he quickly came out and greeted them. "Are you two here to eat or to stay in the restaurant?"

Xiao Qingqian said: "A good room …."

Before he finished speaking, Wei Qing immediately followed up: "Two!"

Xiao Qingqian's face darkened, "One room!"

Wei Qing fiercely glared at him, "Two!"

"One room!"

The waiter looked at Xiao Qingqian and then looked at Wei Qing. His neck was feeling extremely uncomfortable.

"Two!" Wei Qing was like a cockroach, "Just two!"

Xiao Qingqian gritted his teeth as he stared at her, "Either one or you sleep on the streets!"

With that, the shopkeeper hastily said, "You two, we only have one room left!"

"What did you say?" Wei Qing's face darkened as she stared unwaveringly at the shopkeeper. Then, her gaze slowly shifted to Xiao Qingqian's face, which had a slight smile on it.

After seeing through Wei Qing with a glance, the shopkeeper's lips stiffened as he said, "This madam might not know, but this period of time just so happens to be a traditional festival in this town. As a result, the room was relatively tense. If you do not plan to take this room, I'm afraid you will lose it in a moment! "

Traditional festivals?!

Wei Qing frowned, her face full of curiosity.

Xiao Qingqian took the chance while she was in a daze to have the shopkeeper give him the key to the door.

Wei Qing snapped back to reality, "Is it you?"

Xiao Qingqian raised his eyebrows, "If you don't come up, then you can only sleep on the ground!"

Wei Qing's face was filled with regret as she quickly chased after her.

Just as he was about to catch up with Xiao Qingqian, his feet slipped and he almost fell to the ground.

Xiao Qingqian's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly rushed towards her. Just before she was about to fall to the ground, he reached out and wrapped his arms around her waist.

Just as Wei Qing was panicking, she patted her chest and said, "Xiao Qingqian, are you purposely colluding with the shopkeeper?"

The corner of Xiao Qingqian's brows twitched twice. "How could I possibly do such a thing?"

"Haven't you done enough dishonorable things?"

Xiao Qingqian coughed, "Keep a low profile."

The two of them went back to their room. Wei Qing frowned as she looked at the bustling streets outside the window.

"What kind of traditional festival is this?"

"If you want to know, then call the waiter over." With that, he opened the door and called for the waiter.

After the waiter told them the origins of the festival, Wei Qing nodded her head repeatedly.

"So it's that woman who mourned the death of Qing He." Wei Qing sighed, "Then, what programs are there?"

"A lot. After dinner, guests can go to the market to have a look. Many shops have organized special events." The waiter smiled as he looked at the two of them, thinking to himself: This reward definitely isn't small.

Xiao Qingqian nodded and gave a silver ingot to the waiter, "Bring me two dishes and two bowls of rice, the rest is your reward."

The waiter was overjoyed, "Alright!"

After eating dinner, Wei Qing was about to leave in a hurry. However, she remained silent as the corner of her mouth twitched.

Sometimes, Wei Qing was cold as ice and sometimes she was passionate like fire. She really didn't know which one was the real her.

But no matter what kind of person she was, it was always affecting his heart.

Along the way, Wei Qing couldn't help but be speechless.

"Why is there only one activity like this here?"

He shook his head. "Perhaps this love-struck girl is someone from here!"

Just then, a carriage drove over quickly, causing Wei Qing to be stupefied. Seeing that the carriage was about to collide with her, Xiao Qingqian quickly pulled her into his embrace, and avoided the carriage.

Xiao Qingqian lowered his eyebrows and sized her up, "Are you alright?"

Wei Qing shook her head, and she held her hand without saying a word, tightly linking her ten fingers with hers.

"Hurry up and let go!" Wei Qing felt that it was a little awkward, her palms were drenched with perspiration and after struggling for a bit, she wanted to break free.

However, Xiao Qingqian remained indifferent and even increased his strength by a few points.

Wei Qing clenched her teeth, "Xiao Qingqian!"

"What if we encounter the same situation again?"

"It was an accident!" Wei Qing emphasized.

"More people!" Xiao Qingqian's tone did not allow for any discussion, "Hurry."

Wei Qing vexedly panted, muttering nonstop.

At the window of a private room in a teahouse, the man looked at the two of them who were glued to each other.

"Seventh Brother, what happened to you?" Chu Tiange was in the middle of talking about fun things with Princess He Yue when he suddenly felt the temperature in the private room dropping. He couldn't help but feel his heart skip a beat as he asked with concern.

"Nothing." Ever since Chu Yin recovered from his severe illness, his entire person lost his smile.

"Brother Seven, it's very lively tonight. Don't make a face!" Chu Tiange came to his side and peeked his head out. He couldn't help but pinch the center of his brows lightly.

Those two. Wei Qing and Xiao Qingqian?!

No, perhaps it was just a mistake!

They should still be in the capital by now. Why would they be here?

… ….

Xiao Qingqian suddenly felt the gaze that was focused on his back, stopping him in his tracks, he turned and looked.

Chu Tiange had already closed the window, so he didn't see anything.

"What's wrong?" Wei Qing looked at him, searching.

"I'm fine!" Xiao Qingqian gave her a comforting look, "Let's go take a walk."

In the private room.

Chu Yin remained expressionless. The three of them sat there silently for a while, then Chu Yin looked at Princess He Yue. "Princess He Yue, are you interested in following me for a walk?"

Hearing this, Chu Tiange naturally believed that Chu Yin had seen the two figures just now, and her heart became excited once again. She was afraid that if she went against Xiao Qingqian, it would harm him, so she quickly stopped him.

Princess He Yue's thoughts were clear as she scanned the two of them with her probing gaze. "What's wrong with you two?"

"What is there to watch outside?" People are squeezing each other! " Chu Tiange explained somewhat guiltily.
