Chapter 165

Dongfang Qi felt bitter in his heart, but had to explain hard: "It's not suitable now, wait a while."

Some things, he had wanted to make clear long ago. But looking at Lin Qingyue's current unawakened appearance, she obviously had no other intentions toward him.

Dongfang Qi was afraid of breaking that layer of window paper, and if he annoyed her, he might not even be able to be friends in the future.

So, when eating at night, Dongfang Qi tentatively asked: "By the way, you and Dongfang Yan have been divorced for more than two months. Have you ever thought about remarrying?"

"Remarry?" Lin Qingyue's watery eyes blinked twice, and suddenly clapped the table and laughed, "Am I crazy? I finally escaped from a fire pit, and then dig another pit for myself? I'm not that stupid!"

Dongfang Qi: "..."

He silently added a bowl of soup for Lin Qingyue: "But you can't be unmarried for life just because you met someone bad once, right?"

Lin Qingyue stopped laughing and looked at Dongfang Qi suspiciously.

Dongfang Qi was afraid that his thoughts would be discovered, and hurriedly said: "Just chatting casually, if you don't want to mention it, let's change the topic."

Lin Qingyue suddenly realized: "I understand!"

Dongfang Qi was startled, and the meat on his chopsticks fell: "What do you understand?"

Lin Qingyue said: "You want to play matchmaker for me!"

Dongfang Qi: "..."

Lin Qingyue asked with a smile: "What kind of Master-in-law do you like?"

Dongfang Qi: "..."

Lin Qingyue was full of cynical smiles: "If others play matchmaker, I may not pay attention. But if you really introduce me to an object, I can see it."

"By the way, is the object you want to introduce to me a prince or minister, or a child of a poor family?"

"I'm not picky about status, but there is one point, it must be a son-in-law—I don't care if I change my surname. But I am not the kind of woman who serves her parents-in-law and takes her husband as heaven, so I can only be a son-in-law, not marry, so as not to be troublesome."

Dongfang Qi was silent for a long time, and only asked one sentence: "So, your condition for finding a husband is just this one item of son-in-law?"

Lin Qingyue joked heartlessly: "Naturally, I have to look pleasing to the eye, have a compatible temper with me, and be able to drink and talk happily. If it's like Dongfang Yan, who makes me disgusted at first sight, even if he changes his ancestors' eighteen generations to my surname, I won't pay attention."

Dongfang Qi compared them one by one in his heart: compatible temper, pleasing to the eye, able to drink and talk happily... these are all fine, my Father Emperor is an emperor, there is no need for a daughter-in-law to take care of him in the palace, and he is not the kind of character who would deliberately torture people.

So, all meet?

So Dongfang Qi, who saw hope, was in a good mood and ate an extra bowl of rice.

Lin Qingyue looked at him suspiciously: What is he so happy about? I was just joking, he wouldn't really play matchmaker for me, would he?

After eating, Lin Qingyue continued to lecture.

When it was almost the Hai hour, Dongfang Qi got up to say goodbye: "It's getting late, you should rest early at night."

Lin Qingyue stood up and said: "I won't sleep, I'll go to Xie Shouzheng's house in a while."

Dongfang Qi stepped over the threshold, and suddenly turned back and asked: "What are you going to Xiao Hui's house for?"

Lin Qingyue told Dongfang Qi about what Xie Shouzheng encountered.

So Dongfang Qi sat back down and said: "Later, I will accompany you."

Lin Qingyue said: "Didn't you say two days ago that you were busy preparing for the reception of the Feng Kingdom Prince?"

Dongfang Qi said: "The Feng Kingdom Prince hasn't arrived yet, and tonight is just empty. Besides, it's too late at night, and it's not good for your reputation if you go to Xiao Hui's house alone. With me by your side, no one dares to talk nonsense."

Lin Qingyue couldn't help laughing: "You run to my place every night for class, aren't you afraid of affecting my reputation?"

Dongfang Qi said: "So I bring guards when I go out, and I didn't let the servants avoid when you teach, so it's not a man and a woman alone. Xiao Hui's house has three old people, and they sleep early. Although you act openly and honestly, you must also guard against people's words."

Lin Qingyue knew that Dongfang Qi was also for her good, so she didn't say much, just pushed a stack of talisman paper over: "Since the Crown Prince wants to stay, anyway, there is nothing to do, why not draw a few more talismans to consolidate your studies!"

Dongfang Qi asked: "What type to draw?"

"Door-guarding talisman, stick it on the door to settle the house and drive away evil. The Xuanjing Division has limited manpower, and it is inconvenient for people in some remote places to report cases when they encounter things. So, I want to draw more, so I can solve many problems. In the early stage, let's draw 10,000 first!"

Dongfang Qi smiled helplessly: "So, you are using me as a tool man?"

So, for the next hour, Dongfang Qi drew talismans seriously, and his fingers were sour and numb without stopping.

When he looked up, he saw Lin Qingyue sitting by his side, drawing a door-guarding talisman with a pen.

The candlelight cast an orange halo on her cheeks, adding a gentle temperament.

With a "crackle," the candle flame jumped, and his heart was also trembling gently.

Behind them, the shadows of the two people were quietly leaning together at some point.

It seems that in some time in the previous life, they had also been together like this.

Almost at the Zi hour, Lin Qingyue put down her pen: "It's almost time, Xie Daren should be home."

Xie Shouzheng lived not far away, and it took two quarters of an hour to walk from Zhuque Street.

Just as Xie Shouzheng stepped into his house, he saw Lin Qingyue and Dongfang Qi coming.

His eyes lit up, and he ran happily to Dongfang Qi: "Your Highness, why are you here so late? What, you are here for the case? So, Your Highness, are you worried that I won't sleep well at night, so you specially came to help me catch that little ghost who disturbs people's dreams?"

"Your Highness..."

Xie Shouzheng was moved to tears: "I knew it, my status in Your Highness's heart is unique! Woo, so moved..."

Seeing his snot and tears about to rub on him, Dongfang Qi hurriedly pushed him away with disgust: "It's getting late, hurry up and sleep!"

So Xie Shouzheng wiped his tears and took Lin Qingyue and Dongfang Qi inside.

"Your Highness, you should have said hello in advance, so I could buy some good wine and food from outside, and we could have a drink. Old Liu is old, his hands tremble when he cooks, and I am too lazy to use him to cook."

"Business is important, Xiao Hui, go to sleep."

"I was quite sleepy and tired, but seeing Your Highness, the sleepiness disappeared immediately. Why don't we talk all night!"

"Are you going to sleep or not? If you don't sleep, we'll leave!"

"Sleep, sleep, sleep, sleep immediately."

Lin Qingyue was amused by the two master and servant, and quietly said to Dongfang Qi: "Xie Daren is so loyal to you, can't you give him a better face?"

Dongfang Qi said: "I can't give it at all, otherwise he would be on the roof. Many times I suspect, did I pick up a wolf or this dog back then?"

Xie Shouzheng had already pushed the door into his bedroom, and didn't forget to look back and greet: "Does Your Highness want to sleep together? My bed is very big."

Dongfang Qi felt a deep sense of powerlessness: "Business is important, hurry up and sleep."
