Xia Qing has heard of this kind of thing.
He would have sneered at it if someone suggested this to him previously, but now…
It would be a little complicated if Ye He was a player, but if he is an NPC, Xia Qing doesn’t have to think about it as much.
With whatever integrity Xia Qing was left with, he wanted to refuse but remembering how when Ye He looked at him, which felt like the gaze of a lover, his body softened inexplicably.
There was a strange feeling in his heart.
He wanted Ye He to smile only at him.
He couldn’t help but picture how lovely Ye He’s black eyes would look if they were filled with tears…
Xia Qing had the impression that Ye He would look good when he cried. He would brush those tears from the corner of his eyes with his fingertips, and let Ye He lick them away with the tip of his tongue…
On their way here, when he was walking in front out of anger, he looked around and accidentally saw Ye He sticking out his tongue. Ye He simply stuck out a little pink tongue, but Xia Qing’s brain said it’s farewell right on spot and hesitated for a long time before looking away with difficulty.
Xia Qing’s spring crisis didn’t escape the youth’s gaze, who whispered sneakily, “Captain, you see his skin is so fragile, it appears that even little effort would leave a mark, where is your opponent…?”
Before he could finish speaking, Xia Qing’s expression sank south.
The young man bolted when he sensed Xia Qing was about to punch him. However, Xia Qing did not catch up with him reluctantly as usual. Man was busy standing still, with a light blush on his cheeks.

Su Lingling was a chatty young lady.
She assumed that Ye He wanted to inquire about the owner’s taboo when she noticed him looking around with confusion. It just so happened that she had already enquired about some, and wanted to share her findings with Ye He.
Seeing Ye He expressing his gratitude and listening carefully, Su Lingling sneered in her heart.
According to the inertia of the copy, the taboos she heard from other servants were either true or false. To avoid breaking the taboo and dying, Su Lingling decided to explore the road with Ye He and another maid who was greeting the guest. Anyway, these two characters are mere NPCs.
Su Lingling’s calculating gaze fell on Ye He.
It was a pity that he caught Su Lingling’s eyes.
“It’s really unusual that there are no portraits of the Duke of Cissar in this area,” she smiled as she caressed her long hair and looked around the walls.
Su Lingling’s thoughts were a mystery to Ye He.
He had felt that something was missing in the hall previously. With Su Lingling’s mention, he noticed that the walls were bare and that there were no paintings or photos on the walls, as there were in other residences.
Ye He: “Perhaps the Duke of Cissar didn’t want to face the paintbrush?”
System: […I seem to have only heard that some people are unwilling to face the camera. ]
There was a smile on Ye He’s face, pretending not to hear the system’s words.
“Even if the Duke doesn’t have a portrait, shouldn’t his lover have one?” Ye He asked casually.
From Xia Qing’s words earlier, he was a little curious about the Duke’s lover.
Su Lingling grinned as she wrapped her fingers over the ends of her hair, saying, “Yes, but they’re all hidden. After all—”
“That’s Duke Cissar’s lover,” she whispered. Leaning in close to Ye He and sighing like an orchid.
Ye He tensed.
Just as he shuffled to distance himself from Su Lingling, he heard an angry scream:
“What are you doing?!”
This familiar voice…
Before Ye He could turn his head, he saw Su Lingling being pulled away.
A few minutes back, Xia Qing took a few people and went to who knows where, but he didn’t expect him to appear so suddenly.
Xia Qing also didn’t think that the first thing he’ll witness after rounding the corridor would be Su Lingling and Ye He standing close and……Ye He blushing.
Does Xia Qing like Su Lingling?
Ye He was startled and subconsciously turned his head to look at Su Lingling who was standing aside.
After realizing that Ye He’s gaze turned to Su Lingling, Xia Qing also looked at her viciously.
Su Lingling’s organization was opposed to Xia Qing’s organization. Su Lingling wanted to flee, but Xia Qing had no plans of letting Su Lingling slip away because of this new hatred and old grudges.
Seeing that a fight was inevitable, Ye He said quickly:
“Wait, Xia Qing, don’t forget about master’s taboo!”
As soon as Ye He’s words came out, Xia Qing calmed down and stood beside Ye He.
Su Lingling was relieved seeing her narrow escape. She consumed a lot of props in the last instance, and if she really threw her hands, she would not be Xia Qing’s opponent.
System: [The master is not here now.]
Ye He said solemnly in his heart: “If the master was here, none of the conflicts would have me thinking about him.”
System: [If sweet words could be converted into money, you would be a millionaire. ]
Ye He’s heart was overjoyed: “If I say few more words to you, will you give me a discount?”
The system is selfless: [Won’t listen, I have diabetes]
Ye He: “…… Then you should look in the mirrorless.”
Even knowing that there are holes in Ye He’s words, the system still couldn’t help being fooled: [Why?]
Ye He: “It’s because you are too sweet.”
The system didn’t speak for a while, but Ye He felt much better.
Xia Qing’s intention to kill Su Lingling died when he saw Ye He smiling.
The head butler, not knowing when he reached the top of the stairs, glanced over the three of them, and said coldly:
“What’s with all this noise? Master will be arriving soon and none of you are ready to welcome him? !”
