Chapter 237 I... Not For You!

"A Tao," Shen Yao said suddenly, walked up to Ji Zhao with a smile, stretched out his hand and scratched her palm, and smiled, "Shaodong's family and Brother You are guests when they come to the door, you suddenly throw such a profound The question confuses people."

It was only then that Ji Zhao realized that what she had said was a bit serious, and she quickly apologized with a smile, "Brother Qin, Brother You, I shouldn't have mentioned these words on the days when I was finally resting, I accept the punishment, and I will punish myself three times Is the cup okay?"

"Punishment for what? Fine wine?" Qin Minghong suddenly smiled when he came back to his senses, and asked in a clear tone, "If you are punished with milk tea, you are probably willing to drink thirty cups, right?"

"I'm really bad at drinking, but today I'll give up my life to accompany a gentleman!" Ji Zhao also felt that what she said was too serious, she thought about it, and really poured herself a glass of white wine, quite generously drink up!

Before Shen Yao, who was sitting beside her, could stop her, she had already drank herself two glasses of wine~

"Woooooo... so dizzy~"

After a while, Ji Zhao felt that the world was spinning in front of him, and everyone's faces were blurred——

"A Tao's drinking capacity," You Er looked at Ji Zhao's smirk, and couldn't help laughing, "It's really unflattering!"

"Young Master, Second Brother You, I'm laughing at you." Shen Yao smiled helplessly, then got up and hugged Ji Zhao in his arms, "I'll take her back to the room first, please forgive me!"

"It's okay, it's okay, you go and take care of A Tao first!"

Shen Yao smiled gratefully, then carried Ji Zhao back to the room.

"Uncomfortable~" A Tao, who hugged his neck tightly, suddenly opened his eyes, and a hazy mist seemed to form on the eyelashes that were as long as butterfly wings.

She pouted her lips aggrievedly, the expression on her face, not to mention how aggrieved she was.

"Drink so much until you feel uncomfortable?" Shen Yao smiled helplessly.

"I'm so uncomfortable, you still scold me... woo woo woo..."

At this moment, Ji Zhao retracted into his arms aggrieved, and his two fists were beating Shen Yao's chest non-stop.

"Silly girl," Shen Yao put her on the bed, and explained gently, "Why am I willing to scold you? My heart aches! Why do I drink so much when I know I can't drink enough? Hmm?"

At this moment, Ji Zhao's eyes were flushed, and he looked like he was about to cry. Looking at the aggrieved and pitiful, "I... It's not for you!"

"For me?" Shen Yao frowned in confusion.

"I know that Ji Huai is not here for me!" Ji Zhao said angrily, "He is here for me on the surface, but in fact he wants to harm you, right? I...you... I want to protect you! Although I don't know anything about the Qin family, I guess Brother Qin must have been forced to come to Dingyuan County!"

"So what you just said in front of Qin Minghong was to motivate him?" Shen Yao thought for a while, and then understood Ji Zhao's intentions.

"Yeah!" Ji Zhao nodded vigorously, "I, I... I know I can't help you, after all, things in the officialdom are very complicated! But I will work very hard to make money, and I have a lot of money. With silver, it will be easy to do things!"

"It's just that I don't dare to tell you what I think, I'm afraid you will think I'm vulgar~" Alcohol probably played a role, Ji Zhao explained all the little thoughts and worries hidden in his heart clearly~

It's just that she was so sleepy that she didn't hear Shen Yao's response at all, so she fell into a drowsy sleep.

Seeing her peaceful sleeping face, Shen Yao's mood was a bit complicated.

He seemed to have underestimated A Tao's intelligence, but she knew everything in her heart.

It's just that it's not the time to confront the Sun family head-on, so the method A Tao came up with is another good choice.

It might be a good thing to cooperate with Qin Minghong.

"Fool," Shen Yao placed a soft kiss on her cheek, his eyes as deep as a deep spring were full of affection, "Why do I think you are vulgar?"

She probably didn't know that to herself, she was a ray of sunshine that shone into his heart, pulled him out of the dark swamp, and saw the light again.

After tucking up the quilt for her, Shen Yao walked out of the room lightly.

He came to the main room and saw Qin Minghong who was drinking tea.

"I heard that the snow scene in the back mountain of Shanghe Village is very beautiful. I wonder if I can bother Shen Yao to accompany me around?" Qin Minghong smiled at him.

"my pleasure."

The two walked side by side near the back mountain.

It's just that the bright sunshine for several days has melted the snow covering the mountain, without the embellishment of white snow, the scenery on the mountain behind has no bright spots.

Those bare branches, on the contrary, added an indescribable bleakness to the scenery in front of us.

"What Ah Tao said is thought-provoking." Qin Minghong, who stood with his hands behind his back, looked at a lonely big tree in the distance, and broke the silence first, "Actually, when I was young, I made up my mind to work hard. Reading, whenever my master praises my progress in front of my father, there will be a gleam in my father's eyes, and that gleam is probably gratification."

"As the eldest son of the second wife of the Qin family, I have lived a life since I was a child with clothes and food. It can be said that I am rich and beautiful. But all the changes happened in the year when my mother died of illness."

Qin Minghong suddenly let out a long sigh. Although he tried his best to restrain himself, Shen Yao still heard a trace of resentment and hatred in his tone.

"Not two months after my mother passed away, the Liu family came in and became my father's successor. Within a year, I had a half-brother."

"Everyone thinks that the rich and beautiful are beautiful, but after I grew up, I realized that there is dirty and dark mud hidden under those seemingly prosperous splendid. No matter how brilliant the flower on the bright side is, the rotten mud still remains exists."

"Do you know why I didn't like reading later?" Qin Minghong raised the corners of his lips in a self-deprecating manner, "That's because the teacher who taught me was sick every day and often said something in front of my father. If it was specious, my father would naturally think that I was misbehaving and angered my wife. I tried to defend myself, but my father never gave me half of his trust. After crowning the crown, Mrs. Liu asked the servant girl who served me to drug me... How could Erlang, who has a bad reputation and had a maidservant early on, be favored by everyone? In order to avoid Mrs. Liu's calculations, I begged my grandmother and won the opportunity to leave Fucheng. I never thought that it would be two years since I left.

"You want to go back to Fucheng." As the listener, Shen Yao suddenly looked sideways at his eyes, and said in a calm tone, "In your heart, you have already made a decision."
