Xiao Lian couldn't help but sigh.

Suddenly the door inside the house opened and a figure walked into. Xiao Lian hurriedly turned around and asked: "Who!"

"It's me."

As soon as she heard the sound, Xiao Lian's heart that had been tightly raised finally dropped. She stood up happily, walked around the screen, and threw herself into Xu Chen's arms.

"Why, your body is smelly." Xiao Lian asked with a pout.

"Can you do that? I have been hiking and rolling on the mountain since I left the Xiao family a few days ago. Not to mention taking a shower, I don't have time to clean it simply." Xu Chen smiled awkwardly, "Why, do you dislike me?"

"No, as long as you can come back." Xiao Lian snorted and hugged Xu Chen tightly: "It's good if you come back."

Xu Chen looked at the beauty in his arms and felt extremely warm. He asked, "I went back to Xiao's house secretly. He didn't know about my father, but when I was on the eaves just now, I seemed to hear the servants talking about you."

"That's not your fault." Xiao Lian looked embarrassed.

When Xu Chen heard this, he immediately knew what was going on. He wrapped around Xiao Lian's slender waist with heartache and whispered: "I'm sorry."

"It's okay, they're right. I was an affair with my married brother." Xiao Lian didn't care at all, and was even a little excited about the taboo love statement.

Xu Chen smiled and shook his head, asking, "Do you still remember the night we drank?"

When Xiao Lian heard this, he immediately remembered the little things that happened that night and his own initiative. He was so embarrassed that he dared not look up, and he nodded gently in Xu Chen's arms.

"I'm afraid you'll get drunk that night, so I'll ask you again this time." Xu Chen said seriously.

Xiao Lian left Xu Chen's arms without feeling shy when she heard this. She looked at Xu Chen's starry eyes and replied seriously: "You ask."

"If I want to leave Fengqi Town and leave the Xiao family, are you willing to give up everything, give up your identity as a young lady, give up everything you have in the Xiao family, and leave with me?" Xu Chen smiled gently and asked extremely seriously.

Xiao Lian was stunned at first when he heard this, then smiled and said slowly, "I will go wherever you go. Even if I wander around the world, I will be willing."

When Xu Chen heard the answer he wanted, he happily hugged Xiao Lian in his arms.

"Then we'll leave tomorrow. Do you think it's okay?" Xu Chen asked in Xiao Lian's ear.

"Okay." Xiao Lian answered without hesitation.

Xiao Lian suddenly remembered something and asked, "By the way, can I leave a letter to my father?"

"sure."

"That's OK!"

Then Xiao Lian started to work hard and called Xiaoqing outside the yard into the house. As soon as Xiaoqing entered the house, she couldn't help but be surprised and bowed.

Xu Chen smiled and waved his hand, indicating that she should be welcome.

Xiao Lian told Xiao Qing about her and Xu Chen leaving tomorrow. After all, Xiao Qing has always known her relationship with Xu Chen, and it is not impossible to let her know.

"Young Master is going to elope with the eldest lady?" Xiaoqing was incredulous and covered her mouth with her little hands.

Xiao Lian blushed, as if it was indeed like an elopement.

"Just treat it as an elopement." Xu Chen smiled and asked.

"Okay, what do you need Xiaoqing to do?" Xiaoqing asked hurriedly.

Xiao Lian took out a silver note of 100 taels from the small box beside the bed and stuffed it into Xiaoqing's hand.

Xiaoqing looked at the silver notes in her hand, and her face was not filled with joy, but was full of grievances: "Miss, are you asking me to keep the words? If so, there is no need to do so. Even without this money, Xiaoqing will definitely keep the secret for the lady!"

When Xiao Lian heard this, it turned out that Xiaoqing had a wrong idea and quickly explained with a smile: "Xiaoqing, you have thought too much. You can tell my father all about my affairs with Xu Chen. And I left you this money because you have been with me for many years and have won my heart. Just think of it as a reward, don't think too much."

Xiaoqing knew that she had a wrong intention, so she accepted the silver note.

"You go and help me clean up a few sets of clothes and some accompanying supplies later," Xiao Lian ordered, "I will write a letter to the master tonight. After I and Xu Chen leave, you will take the letter to the master. Just pretend you don't know anything, and say I'll disappear and only find this letter in the house, so that you won't affect you."

"Okay, Miss." Xiaoqing thought of something, her face looked a little weird, and asked softly: "Then do I need to get hot water later? I think the young master seems to need a shower."

Xiao Lian didn't know what Xiaoqing meant yet. She blushed and said, "Okay, just fetch hot water into my room."

"good."

Immediately afterwards, the two of them started to work separately. One wrote a letter in the house, the other ran out to pack their luggage, and fed Xu Chen with hot water.

Xu Chen blinked his eyes and saw that he had nothing to do, so he placed the hidden sword in his hand on the table and leaned against the bed in a daze.

I don’t know how long it took, but Xiao Qing had packed her luggage and came in, and Xiao Lian also wrote the letter and gave it to Xiao Qing.

At this moment, the two of them suddenly realized that Xu Chen was actually asleep, leaning against the bed, with their heads tilted.

Xiao Lian smiled gently and said to Xiaoqing softly: "No need for hot water, let's take a shower tomorrow morning, you can go back first."

Xiaoqing lowered her head and answered and left.

He came back so easily, and believed that the matter of the Huangkang thief should have been dealt with. Although I didn't ask him the details and process, I believe that those things were not so easy.

Xiao Lian walked forward, gently supported Xu Chen on the bed, and took off his shirt, shoes and socks one by one.

She was also lying on the bed, not caring about the smell of Xu Chen at all. She hugged Xu Chen, just like she had previously hugged the pillow, smiling and happy.

He and I will elope tomorrow.

On the morning of the morning, Xiaoqing rushed into Xiao Weifeng's yard with a letter in her hand, and shouted loudly: "It's not good, lord!"

The housekeeper also got up early, walked to Xiaoqing and frowned and said, "What are you doing, shouting."

Xiaoqing hurriedly said, "The eldest lady is gone!"

"What?"

In Xiao Weifeng's room, he was wearing a close-fitting shirt and was obviously just getting up. He held the letter in his hand and looked down silently.

Immediately afterwards, Xiao Weifeng sighed deeply, as if he was aged a few years, his eyes were turbid, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

"Master, what did the letter left by the eldest lady?" the butler asked worriedly.

"It's nothing, it's just that she and Xu Chen have left." Xiao Weifeng said slowly.

"How could it be?" The butler's face was strange. Of course he knew Xiao Lian's feelings for Xu Chen, but now Xiao Lian is doing this so well...

"It's okay, it's better if they leave. I believe Xu Chen will take good care of Lian'er." Xiao Weifeng kneaded it into a ball and threw it into the charcoal fire in the house.

"But is this bad impact? If you let the people around you know..."

Xiao Weifeng waved his hand and interrupted the butler: "It's already like this, and I don't want to let someone go out to find them. Just treat me as a father and I'll be the last bit of indulgence to them."

"As for whoever wants to gossip behind his back, let him say it." Xiao Weifeng snorted, and then said: "When the news comes out, I will say that my adopted son Xu Chen and his daughter Xiao Lian are going out for study."

"this..."
