Chapter 152: Compensation(1/2)

Lin Chenyao's face turned pale. He didn't expect him to come to find Chu Xinyu and wanted to ask her to draw a portrait. When he came in from the window, he saw her and a man kissing through the desk, smiling so sweetly. Almost instantly, anger rushed from under his feet to his forehead, and his chest seemed to be blocked with a huge rock, which made him feel a little breathless.

Lin Chenyao's fists clenched tightly and made a creaking sound.

Chu Xinyu's eyelids twitched, but his heart was still unwilling. His expression seemed to be catching a villain. She and her cousin had nothing to do, and the two of them did not do excessive moves.

She thought this way in her heart, and she was still a little guilty. After all, she was a lady from a wealthy family. It was wrong for a man to appear in the boudoir in the middle of the night, and she was caught by the fiancé who was ordered by the emperor to marry...

Why is it just such a coincidence that my cousin and he came here on the same night, what should I do now?

Chu Xinyu was a little panicked.

Xiao Jingxuan found that she looked panicked, and her eyes crossed his shoulders and stared directly behind him.

He had actually noticed something strange behind him, and slowly turned around. Seeing that it was Lin Chenyao, Xiao Jingxuan raised his eyebrows unexpectedly. With his understanding of Lin Chenyao, he sneaked into the unmarried girl's boudoir in the middle of the night, which was not in line with his personality.

I feel a sense of incongruity when I see him here.

Lin Chenyao was also surprised when he saw Xiao Jingxuan. He turned his back to him just now, and he felt that the back was a little familiar, but he didn't expect it was him.

The anger that had just happened soon disappeared. His deep eyes glanced between the two of them. When he stopped on Chu Xinyu's face, he pursed his lips, his lips were cold and hard, and there was no more fluctuations in his expression. He just felt that the scene of Chu Xinyu standing with a man in his boudoir in the middle of the night made him feel a little dazzling. Even if the man was her cousin, he had reminded him a few days ago that he would not propose to cancel the engagement first.

He narrowed his eyes slightly, "Come here."

This inexplicable sentence made Chu Xinyu struggle a little and stuffed the jade pendant back. However, his imperative sentence made her feel a little resistant.

Lin Chenyao repeated the sentence lightly, "Come here."

"What are you doing in the past?" Chu Xinyu frowned. She felt a little embarrassed. In front of Xiao Jingxuan, it seemed that she was his maid and could obey him at any time.

Xiao Jingxuan looked at them, one expressionless and the other was impatient. He really didn't expect that the relationship between them would develop so quickly. When Lin Chenyao entered the palace yesterday, he felt strange. If there was nothing special, Lin Chenyao would not have gone to the harem, and he obviously came for Chu Xinyu yesterday.

He also defended Chu Xinyu in front of Fu Yinghua and was so active in finding evidence for her. In this way, his relationship with Chu Xinyu may not be as simple as marrying her for the sake of a promise.

Although they were a little surprised to develop rapidly, their prospects were good. They suppressed the small loss in their hearts and said to Chu Xinyu: "Go over."

As long as she is happy, her destiny is different from her previous life, and it is worth it to do anything.

"But I have something to discuss with you." She asked Xiao Jingxuan for two important things, and she said one thing she said. Now someone is monitoring him, and I don't know when I want to see him next time.

Xiao Jingxuan picked up the paper she wanted to give to herself just now, with dense words written on it, all about a man. "You want to show me these are these?"

Chu Xinyu nodded and said, "Yes, I want you to help me check this person's business affairs, because I have no connections in this regard, so I have to trouble you."

"I'm very willing to help you, but it's not convenient for me to check it out, but I can recommend someone to you."

"Who are you recommending? Is it reliable?"

When Lin Chenyao saw the two of them talking indifferently, Chu Xinyu seemed to have not heard his words. He could have turned around and left, but he told himself that he had important things to look for her, so he barely stayed.

He stepped forward. The room in the study was not big at all. His tall body covered the candlelight hanging behind him tightly, and a strong sense of oppression came to his face.

"Your Highness, it's too late. It's not good to stay in the girl's boudoir for too long. What can I say during the day?

Xiao Jingxuan looked up at him, and said with a playful smile on his face: "Yes, it's too late. It's not good to stay in the girl's boudoir for too long. Marquis of Peiping, let's go together."

Lin Chenyao's throat rolled up and down, but his voice was still not loud, but his momentum increased. "I have an engagement with her, and I have something to do with her. You can go back first."

Xiao Jingxuan said: "I am also her brother. Although you have an engagement with her, you have not passed the six rites yet."

Lin Chenyao glanced at Chu Xinyu, looked at Xiao Jingxuan and said, "Since that's the case, let's go together."

As he said that, he turned around and left.

Xiao Jingxuan was stunned. He didn't expect that he was so straightforward. He was curious about what he would say to keep him, so he said: "Wait a minute."

Lin Chenyao paused, but did not look back.

Xiao Jingxuan said to Chu Xinyu: "He is the one I recommend, please find him." After that, he stuffed the paper in his hand back to Chu Xinyu, walked towards the window, and gestured at Lin Chenyao when he passed by Lin Chenyao.

Lin Chenyao understood what he meant, pursed his lips and didn't say anything. Xiao Jingxuan knew how to understand, so he jumped out of the window.

Chu Xinyu was digesting Xiao Jingxuan's words, thinking they would leave together, but he didn't expect that Lin Chenyao was the one who stayed in the end.

Regarding the investigation of Deng Guozhu, she actually thought about finding Lin Chenyao, but he didn't know Xu Zhilan's identity. Maybe he was a little suspicious now, but there was no evidence to prove that in his eyes, Xu Zhilan was still Fu Yinghua. It was just that when she grew up, she changed her temperament and was no longer a person he was familiar with, so she became a little alienated.

If he was asked to investigate Deng Guozhu, he would inevitably discover the relationship between Deng Guozhu and Xu Zhilan, and Xu Zhilan and Fu Yinghua were cousins. It is hard to guarantee that he would not directly ask "Fu Yinghua" and the relationship between Xu Zhilan and Deng Guozhu. In this way, Xu Zhilan will find that someone is investigating Deng Guozhu.

Therefore, Xiao Jingxuan said that he could help him, and she had to think of a way to make Lin Chenyao not doubt the reason for investigating Deng Guozhu, and also made him believe that he was investigating Deng Guozhu, not because of "Fu Yinghua".

Seeing that she looked down at the paper that Xiao Jingxuan had just stuffed her, Lin Chenyao said coldly: "Are you disappointed if he leaves?"

Lost? Chu Xinyu looked up at him, and saw the sarcasm in his eyes, and couldn't help frowning, "What did you say? He is my cousin."

"Not my dear brother."

"But I think he is my biological brother."

Lin Chenyao looked at her and said coldly: "Even if it's a real brother, how could he be in his sister's boudoir at midnight? What were you doing just now?"

Chu Xinyu said, "It's nothing. He thought there was something dirty in my collar just now, so he wanted to brush it off."

She still thinks this way. Xiao Jingxuan saw the red rope exposed on her collar and thought that something was stuck on it. She possessed her and found that it was a red rope tied with a jade pendant.

"Is that?" He didn't believe what she said. He saw what she stuffed back into her clothes just now. Could it be that Xiao Jingxuan gave her something to wear? But she is his woman, how can she wear other men's things?

"If you don't believe it, just forget it." Chu Xinyu bit her lip, and Lin Chenyao's suspicion caused her to be slightly injured.

"What did you stuff back just now?" She didn't say it, and he asked directly.

"You said this?" She took out the jade pendant.

Lin Chenyao stepped forward and took the jade pendant off her neck, raised his hand and threw it out the window.

"No!" Chu Xinyu realized his actions and rushed over to grab his hand, but the two of them were anxious across the desk. She was anxious and accidentally hit her abdomen, causing her to sweat coldly.

"What's wrong?"

Lin Chenyao hurriedly walked around the desk and wanted to see where she was hurt, but she pushed it away with one hand.

"Go away, don't worry!"

Chu Xinyu covered her abdomen, and her lips were pale because of pain. When she thought of him throwing away his jade pendant, she couldn't help but feel resentful. What did the jade pendant offend him? Why did he throw it away?

Lin Chenyao was a little lost. He just wanted to test her, but he didn't expect that she would care so much about the jade pendant. Is she concerned about the jade pendant or the person who gave it to?

He thought this way, but he didn't realize why he was confused about this. Seeing Chu Xinyu's sad look, he looked at his chest again, so stuffy that he couldn't breathe.

"For you." Lin Chenyao returned the jade pendant to her.

"You didn't throw it away!" Chu Xinyu said happily, hurriedly put it away, as if he was afraid that he would snatch it away and throw it away again.

Lin Chenyao asked back without answering: "This jade pendant is very important to you? Xiao Jingxuan gave you? What would you do if I throw it away?"

His dark eyes looked like the bottomless pool water. Chu Xinyu looked at him, not understanding why he thought that the jade pendant was given to her by his cousin. He hesitated and said, "Important, if you throw it away, I will pick it up, but it was not given to her by his cousin."

"No?" Lin Chenyaoyuan frowned, but when he thought of his actions just now, he vaguely felt something was wrong with him tonight. When did he become so impulsive?

Chu Xinyu held the jade pendant and said, "I picked up this jade pendant in Puling Temple. Fortunately, when the killer assassinated me, I escaped the disaster, so I feel safe wearing it."

Her soul has always been attached to this jade perch. At that time, Yu'er's blood dyed the jade perch red. Her soul was released from the jade perch. She originally threw the jade perch back into the cave, afraid that she would wear it, and Xu Zhilan would find it. I don't know why, once the jade perch leaves her, she feels panic all day long, and feels like the soul is not solid.

When she took the jade pendant back from the cave and put it on her body again, the feeling of panic disappeared again. Therefore, the jade pendant is very important to her, but she could not tell Lin Chenyao all these, she could only say that it saved her life because she would feel safe with it.

Lin Chenyao felt guilty after hearing her explanation. Fortunately, he didn't really throw it away, otherwise she would have hated him, "I'm sorry just now, I..."

"You want to compensate me for the hurt heart just now." Chu Xinyu said in advance.

"Tell me, how can I compensate you?" Lin Chenyao knew that she would not miss the opportunity to blackmail him, but seeing that her face returned to normal and her smile came back, it was worth it to be blackmailed by her.

Seeing that he agreed, Chu Xinyu smiled slightly at him and reached out to him, "Help me back first."

I was hit on my abdomen just now, but I still felt a little painful now. I don’t know if there was any stasis. Of course, it was a hidden place for a woman. I couldn’t tell a man that even if he was his fiancé, he could only endure it.

Lin Chenyao held her hand, and Chu Xinyu was about to take advantage of the force, but he bent over and hugged her horizontally. Chu Xinyu was so scared that his hands hooked around his neck by his sudden action.

"you……"

Lin Chenyao did not say anything, and carried her directly out of the study room, passed through the main hall, stepped into her bedroom, gently placed her on the bed, and asked, "Where is the medicinal oil?"

"What are you going to do?" Chu Xinyu asked him in confusion.

"Didn't you hurt?" Lin Chenyao raised his eyebrows to look at her.

Hearing this, Chu Xinyu held his forehead. He wasn't going to help her apply oil, right? Then he met his gaze and said, "But do you know where I bumped into it?"

She said, rubbing her abdomen gently with her hands.

When Lin Chenyao heard this, he followed the movement of her hand and realized something. His face suddenly turned red and he immediately turned his gaze away.

When Chu Xinyu saw it, he became happy. It turned out that he knew he was shy and said, "The medicine oil is under the dressing table, the white bottle."

After saying that, she took off her shoes and covered her body with a quilt, intending that after he found the medicine oil, he would not feel embarrassed if he applied medicine through the quilt.

Lin Chenyao walked over and squatted down, dragged out a medicine box from it, opened it, took out a white bottle from it, and then gave it to her, "Print it yourself."

After saying that, he turned around and walked out.

Looking at his tall and straight back, Chu Xinyu raised his mouth and said to him: "There is a stack of information on the desk. Please help me get it later."

The man did not respond, but she knew he heard it. Chu Xinyu lifted up his clothes, poured some oil in his palm, and rubbed it hard on the place where it hurt.

Feeling comfortable, the pain is relieved a little.

"Okay, you can take it over." She put the medicinal oil on the head of the bed and shouted to the other side of the study.
