Chapter 231 So who are you talking to?
Chapter 231 So who are you talking to?
Xuan Yelan almost immediately realized who Qi Wuyou was talking about, but he did not rush to deny it, "Who is An An talking about? I don't have any maids around me."
Qi Wuyou ignored him and looked around the imperial study room, but couldn't find the other person.
It’s really strange. Liu He clearly said that Xuan Yelan was discussing something with someone, but why is he the only one alone in the imperial study?
And why was the door locked and bolted in broad daylight?
Xuan Yelan slowly put down the book in his hand, looked up and down at Qi Wuyou, his heart skipped a beat, afraid that she would discover the person hiding in the dark, so he quickly changed the subject.
"Oh, so you came here for He Xiang and Lian Xiang, why are you so angry?"
"How can I not be angry? They are your people, so they will naturally obey you!"
Qi Wuyou widened his eyes and glared at Xuan Yelan, not hiding his dissatisfaction at all.
Xuan Yelan slowly stood up and gently held Qi Wuyou's little hand, his tone gentle but firm.
"There are some things that I haven't told you yet. When the time is right, I will tell you everything. Don't worry, I will never hurt you in the slightest."
Qi Wuyou stared at Xuan Yelan's eyes for a while, and the anger in her heart slowly subsided. She certainly believed that Xuan Yelan would not hurt her.
But then, she remembered that Xuan Yelan had once told her that no matter what happened, he would tell her the truth.
Thinking of this, her anger suddenly rose again.
Qi Wuyou believed that Xuan Yelan would not lie to her, but that did not mean that he could hide everything from her.
This is true for both him, Lianxiang and Hexiang.
Qi Wuyou did not continue to talk about this topic, but wandered around the imperial study, trying to find some clues. However, she found nothing.
Finally, she looked at Xuan Yelan with a half-smile and said, "Liu He said that you were discussing important matters with others."
When Xuan Yelan heard this, his expression changed slightly, and Qi Wuyou keenly sensed his inner panic.
She snorted and questioned, "Is there someone else in this imperial study? I just walked in from the front door. Is there a back door in this imperial study?"
Seeing Xuan Yelan's obviously flustered expression, Qi Wuyou continued, "Since we are here to discuss business, why are you hiding?"
Then he suddenly realized something and continued, "Are you hiding from me?"
Before Xuan Yelan could speak, Qi Wuyou said, "I see. It's not the right time yet. I can't know yet."
Xuan Yelan's eyes flickered, avoiding Qi Wuyou's sight, "This is a long story, the time is not right yet, you don't need to know."
Qi Wuyou put his hands on his hips and sneered, "Humph! You always say the time is not right. I guess you don't want to tell me at all!"
Xuan Yelan sighed helplessly, stepped forward and hugged Qi Wuyou's shoulders, and gently comforted him: "An An, it's not that I don't want to tell you, but it involves a lot of things, and I don't want you to get hurt."
Qi Wuyou raised his head and looked directly into Xuan Yelan's eyes, avoiding his hand on his shoulder, "We are husband and wife, and I am not some naive and ignorant girl."
Her voice was firm and serious. "There should be no secrets between us. If you feel that now is not the right time, you can tell me the general situation first so that I can have a general idea."
Xuan Yelan was silent for a moment, as if thinking about how to answer, then he sighed softly and said: "An An, there are some things I really can't tell you now, but please believe me, everything I do is for your own good."
Qi Wuyou frowned and said dissatisfiedly: "It's always like this. You always use this sentence to evade me. Don't you know that I would rather face it with you?"
She said word by word: "Remember I once told you that I came from another world?"
Xuan Yelan nodded slightly to indicate that he remembered.
Qi Wuyou's eyes were slightly red, and his voice was choked with sobs: "In my previous life, I was a lonely and helpless orphan. In this life, I thought I had found a soulmate who was in tune with me, but I didn't expect that he would hide many things from me."
She gently wiped away the tears from her eyes and said firmly: "I will not ask these questions again in the future."
After saying that, Qi Wuyou turned around and was about to leave.
Xuan Yelan was horrified. He subconsciously reached out his hand, pulled her and hugged her tightly. He knew in his heart that if he couldn't make things clear with Qi Wuyou today, there would always be an unbridgeable gap between them.
He explained softly, "I didn't mean to hide it from you. I didn't plan to tell you at first. However, when I saw you fall into the water because of He Xiang, I was filled with fear and worry."
After hearing this, Qi Wuyou couldn't help but retort: "Isn't it because you guys won't tell me anything? In that case, I can only investigate the truth myself."
Xuan Yelan sighed softly: "Forget it, if that's the case, then I will tell you everything, but you also need to promise me that you will never take risks again in the future."
Qi Wuyou's heart was slightly moved, and he nodded solemnly: "I promise you."
The two talked in the imperial study for a long time, more than half an hour had passed.
Outside the door, Liu He, who was suppressed by Mei Xue and He Xiang, had already turned pale.
"Can you please loosen up a bit? My legs are cramping!"
Liu He had a bitter look on his face and cried to Mei Xue who was sitting on his lap.
Mei Xue glared at him fiercely and said unhappily, "If you hadn't stopped us, would we be like this?" Then she got off Liu He.
Liu He rubbed his legs and said, "You are a woman after all, men and women should not touch each other..."
Before Liu He could finish his words, Mei Xue sneered and interrupted him, "Aren't you a eunuch?"
Liu He paused when she heard this, and her expression turned a little ugly. Just as she was about to open her mouth to refute, she heard Mei Xue continue, "We are all sisters, why should we be so different from each other?"
When Mei Xue said this, her eyes were looking in the direction of the imperial study.
Qi Wuyou and Xuan Yelan got together before, and no one knew what they were talking about, but Qi Wuyou seemed to be in a much better mood, and it seemed that he had resolved the misunderstanding with His Majesty.
Mei Xue breathed a sigh of relief, but her attention was all on Xuan Yelan and Qi Wuyou, and she didn't notice that after she finished speaking, Lianxiang and Hexiang looked at Liu He with a teasing look on their faces.
Qi Wuyou just remembered it when he was about to leave, and turned around to ask Xuan Yelan: "So who were you talking to? And you locked the door?"
Before Xuan Yelan could speak, he heard a familiar voice coming from the beams, and replied lazily, "Me."
