Chapter 1221: There is a Mystery Hidden in the Book

Through chatting with Xu Xiaoxiao, Liu Xin'ai became even more certain that there was a mystery hidden within this book!

She suppressed her excitement, nodded, and said, "I will read it carefully!"

"But you must also pay attention to rest; learning is a very long process, and you won't be able to handle it without a healthy body."

Hearing this, Liu Xin'ai fell silent for a moment.

She wondered if Xu Xiaoxiao was hinting that she... needed to conserve her energy?

Conserving energy was correct.

But she had been sleeping so much every day lately that her body was already full of strength!

To put Xu Xiaoxiao at ease, Liu Xin'ai said, "I either eat or sleep every day, I have plenty of energy!"

Xiao'an was standing right beside them.

Thinking the two were just chatting normally, she added, "Madam does indeed sleep a lot, and as for eating, Sir will have people prepare the dishes Madam likes and then thoughtfully keep her company!"

Xiao'an wanted to show off Qin Yiyan's thoughtfulness.

But what she didn't know was that Xu Xiaoxiao didn't believe a word she said.

As for Liu Xin'ai...

She didn't want to mention the person Qin Yiyan at all!

To stop Xiao'an from continuing, Liu Xin'ai arranged for her, "Go pour some tea for Xiao Xiao."

Xiao'an suspected nothing and responded with a smile.

Liu Xin'ai thought of something else and added, "If you run into Bai Yufei, don't mention that Xiao Xiao is here; I want some peace and quiet with my friend."

Liu Xin'ai was worried that woman would come to cause trouble.

But Xu Xiaoxiao said, "I already crossed paths with her when I arrived."

"Ah? Then... you didn't get into an argument, did you?"

"Not at all. She just glared at me, then I gave her the middle finger, and then she left."

This style...

It really was worthy of Xu Xiaoxiao!

Liu Xin'ai sighed inwardly, then asked:

"She didn't take the opportunity to start a fight with you?"

"No."

Bai Yufei... actually didn't make a scene?

That was quite rare.

Seeing Liu Xin'ai frowning, Xu Xiaoxiao reassured her, "Don't worry, when it comes to Bai Yufei, it's impossible for me to come out on the losing end."

Liu Xin'ai did not relax.

Instead, she urged, "I know you're capable, but it's hard to guard against a villain."

"That would only be a concern if we had further interactions. Will I have any more dealings with her in the future? You, on the other hand, should worry less and spend more time reading."

Xu Xiaoxiao's words reminded Liu Xin'ai.

Time was precious now; why waste it on irrelevant people?

Having figured it out, Liu Xin'ai took a deep breath and then smiled at Xu Xiaoxiao.

Her smile made Xu Xiaoxiao break into a smile as well.

Xu Xiaoxiao had wanted to talk more with Liu Xin'ai, but she worried that the more they spoke, the easier it would be for someone to eavesdrop and discover the clues.

Therefore, Xu Xiaoxiao left with reluctance.

Liu Xin'ai was also very reluctant to part with her friend.

However, there were priorities in all things.

As soon as Xu Xiaoxiao left, Liu Xin'ai focused on flipping through the book.

On the surface, this was just an ordinary medical book.

There were even some annotations on it.

But...

If it were truly ordinary, Xu Xiaoxiao wouldn't have made those hints.

Liu Xin'ai rested her forehead on one hand, thinking carefully.

Because she was reading so intently, she didn't even notice someone had entered the room.

"You've been looking at this page for a long time."

Hearing Qin Yiyan's voice, Liu Xin'ai was startled!

But on the surface, there was no expression on Liu Xin'ai's face.

She didn't even change her posture.

She just said indifferently, "Reading also requires thinking."

Qin Yiyan took a look...

The text was dry and profound; it did indeed require careful thought.

However

Thinking of something, Qin Yiyan urged, "Don't overwork your brain; you'll get tired."

"I won't get tired; this is a kind of pleasure."

Pleasure?

That really was a profound kind of pleasure.

In any case, Qin Yiyan has no such luck to enjoy it.

His gaze landed on Liu Xin'ai's belly.

Suddenly, a hypothesis emerged from the bottom of Qin Yiyan's heart.

He even asked Liu Xin'ai, "Does this count as a form of prenatal education?"

Qin Yiyan was just saying it casually.

But Liu Xin'ai paused her movements, and then, she slowly lowered her head.

Prenatal education...

The prenatal education Liu Xin'ai was giving the child was all related to scheming!

It wasn't pure at all, it wasn't beautiful at all!

Thinking of these things, Liu Xin'ai felt very ashamed.

She felt that she had failed the child.

Qin Yiyan noticed Liu Xin'ai's mood gradually sinking, and he was a bit puzzled.

But slowly, he realized something and said hurriedly, "It doesn't matter if you don't have it; I can arrange it, it's not too late."

Liu Xin'ai lowered her eyes and responded softly.

"I'll arrange it for you after I return from my business trip."

This time, Liu Xin'ai's eyes moved slightly.

The next second, she raised her head again and asked, "Are you going out of town for an inspection?"

Qin Yiyan did not answer directly, but said with a half-smile, "I didn't expect you to be able to care about me."

Liu Xin'ai immediately denied it, "Who cares about you? It was clearly because you and Fei'er were talking too loudly that day, and I couldn't help but hear it!"

"But you wouldn't pay attention to a topic you aren't interested in. For example, can you remember what I said to you before I went to sleep last night?"

What did he say...

How would she remember that!

But if she didn't remember, wouldn't that confirm Qin Yiyan's hypothesis?

Liu Xin'ai felt depressed.

She felt she shouldn't have been so quick to say that last sentence!

Qin Yiyan, however, seemed to be in a good mood.

He even said, "I have to leave very soon this time, maybe for two or three days. While I'm away, you be good and don't stir up any trouble."

"As long as no one provokes me, I'm too lazy to stir up trouble."

After Liu Xin'ai finished speaking, she lowered her head and continued flipping through the book.

Qin Yiyan looked at Liu Xin'ai.

In his heart, he was thinking...

Liu Xin'ai's words made sense.

He should also go and give Bai Yufei a warning.

Thinking this, Qin Yiyan walked out of the room.

And Liu Xin'ai focused on reading.

Suddenly, her page-turning motion paused.

Then she flipped forward rapidly.

Once she connected all the annotated page numbers together...

She was surprised to find that there was a pattern!

This was clearly Morse code!

Xu Xiaoxiao and Liu Xin'ai had played with this together back when they were in school.

Who would have thought...

Xu Xiaoxiao was using this method to pass information to Liu Xin'ai!

An excited Liu Xin'ai quickly looked around the room.

Finding that Qin Yiyan was not there and Xiao'an was over there tidying the sofa, Liu Xin'ai immediately decoded all the Morse code.

Finally, it translated into one sentence: In two days, the operation begins, Jiang Baobao will come to assist.

In the end, it was reduced to one sentence: two days later, the operation begins, and Jiang Baobao will come to cooperate.

Qin Yiyan was about to leave...

Liu Xin'ai knew something!

She could hardly hide her excitement inside!!

But to avoid being seen, Liu Xin'ai closed her eyes, leaned back against the chair, and pretended to be resting.

When Liu Xin'ai opened her eyes again, her mood had already calmed down.

She even took the initiative to ask Xiao'an, "How is the weather lately?"

"It's all very good, it hasn't rained for a whole week."

Liu Xin'ai nodded and then arranged, "Have the gardener plant some new flowers outside the Flower Room as well."

"What variety of flowers would you like?"

"Anything is fine, as long as they are pretty."

"Anything is fine, as long as it's a bit prettier."

"

"Yes."

After Liu Xin'ai finished speaking, she walked slowly to the window.

Outside the Flower Room, there is a very large plot of land.

When it is filled with blooming flowers, it will surely be very beautiful.

It is a pity...

Neither she nor the child will have the chance to see it.
