Chapter 164: Secret Meeting in the Boudoir
Night.
At the She village chief’s house.
A shadow quietly appeared in a small courtyard.
Then, the shadow waved a hand, and a barrier covered the area around the courtyard!
Tap! Tap! Tap!
“Who?”
A clear voice sounded.
“Shiyun, it’s me, Li Xiaojun,” Li Xiaojun called out to the door.
“Ah!”
A surprised exclamation came from inside the room.
“Is it Brother Xiaojun? Wait a moment.”
Then, Li Xiaojun heard a flurry of sounds.
Soon, a light-footed figure stepped out.
The door opened, and a girl appeared before Li Xiaojun.
Though the night was dark, Li Xiaojun could see clearly in the dark.
The girl before him was She Shiyun.
“Are you Brother Xiaojun?”
With the faint moonlight, She Shiyun recognized Li Xiaojun.
“Brother Xiaojun, why are you here?”
She Shiyun looked at Li Xiaojun, both shy and delighted.
“I heard that you were locked up by your father, and I was worried about you, so I came to check on you,” Li Xiaojun said with genuine concern.
Hearing Li Xiaojun’s words, a happy smile appeared on She Shiyun’s face.
She looked around and then pulled Li Xiaojun into the room.
“Brother Xiaojun, come in quickly, don’t let anyone see!”
“Shiyun, I won’t go in; it’s late, and that wouldn’t be good. I just came to see you. Now that I see you are okay, I can rest easy,” Li Xiaojun responded to She Shiyun.
“It’s fine! Brother Xiaojun, just talk to me. I want to chat with you,” She Shihan said to Li Xiaojun.
“Well, alright then.”
Soon, the two entered the room.
In a little while, an oil lamp lit up.
The shadows of two figures appeared.
Observant She Shiyun quickly placed the lamp on the other side of them so that their shadows wouldn’t be seen outside.
“Shiyun!” Li Xiaojun called out to She Shiyun.
“Hmm, Brother Xiaojun!”
She Shiyun looked shy and didn’t dare to meet Li Xiaojun’s gaze!
“Shiyun, your father didn’t make things difficult for you, did he?” Li Xiaojun asked with concern.
“No, my dad just grounded me,” She Shiyun replied quickly.
“That’s good, that’s good!” Li Xiaojun nodded eagerly.
“Brother Xiaojun, how did you get in? How did you know I lived here?” She Shiyun looked up at Li Xiaojun and asked.
“I climbed over the wall. I saw you locked in this courtyard during the day…”
She Shiyun did not doubt Li Xiaojun’s words.
“Brother Xiaojun, you’re so good to me; you worry about me even late at night…”
“You’re the good one! You helped me so much during the day, and I’m very grateful…”
“It’s just what I should do…”
The two chatted for a long time in the girl’s boudoir.
As the night grew deeper, Li Xiaojun finally said goodbye to She Shiyun.
“Shiyun, I’m heading back now. I’ll come see you again tomorrow night,” Li Xiaojun said to She Shiyun.
“Okay, Brother Xiaojun, be careful…”
“Hmm, I will be careful.”
From then on, every night, Li Xiaojun would visit She Shiyun’s boudoir to talk.
During this time, Li Xiaojun used his knowledge and insights to win She Shiyun’s admiration.
Li Xiaojun could clearly feel that She Shiyun had grown fonder of him.
On the seventh night of their secret meetings,
the second young master of the Hou family, the county office’s captain, arrived at the She family home.
“What’s going on? Didn’t I tell you to bring Shiyun out?”
“Sir, the second young mistress said she won’t come out no matter what, and we can’t do anything about it.”
“This troublemaker…” She Rujie was furious.
“What about She Shihan? Is she also refusing to come?”
“Miss She Shihan is also refusing to come out.”
“I’ll go personally and call them; they’ve really gone too far…”
“Sir, I’ll go,” a beautiful woman stepped forward and said.
“Alright, you go. You are their mother and can speak to them more easily,” She Rujie nodded.
After about ten minutes, the beautiful woman finally brought She Shiyun and She Shihan out.
However, both of them had sour expressions on their faces.
“Shiyun, She Shihan!” As the two entered the main hall, a young master immediately stepped forward to greet them.
However, She Shiyun turned her face to the side.
She Shihan also kept her head down and didn’t look at him at all.
“How have I taught you two? Did I teach you to be so rude?”
“Uncle, Shiyun and She Shihan are still young, please don’t blame them,” the young man quickly tried to smooth things over.
“Hmph!” She Shiyun huffed and then said to the young man, “Monkey Ling, give up! I will not marry you!”
“Right, my sister won’t… huh?” She Shihan suddenly brightened up.
“Sister, I think Brother Zi Ling is quite good; you can marry Brother Zi Ling,” She Shihan said to She Shiyun.
“If you think he’s good, then you marry him,” She Shiyun replied irritably.
“Impudent!”
She Rujie slammed the table and said, “She Shiyun, She Shihan, is this how you treat guests? Where is your manners?”
“Uncle, please don’t blame Shiyun and She Shihan…” the young man quickly tried to mediate again.
Hearing this, She Shiyun rolled her eyes.
“She Shiyun, it seems I have spoiled you too much in the past, and you’ve become so rude…”
“Bring them here, I will deal with this!”
“Wait, wait, Uncle, don’t… if you do that, I will leave…” Monkey Ling quickly said.
Hearing this, She Rujie thought for a moment and then ordered his subordinates, “Take She Shiyun and She Shihan back. They are not allowed to leave the courtyard without my command.”
To prevent his two daughters from embarrassing Monkey Ling further, She Rujie ultimately took them downstairs.
After the two daughters left, She Rujie explained to Monkey Ling about their unusual behavior.
Half an hour later, Monkey Ling left She’s House with a group of subordinates.
Once outside, he instructed a few of his subordinates, “You all stay here and keep an eye on a guy named Li Xiaojun. I’ll arrange for some officers to capture him.”
He wanted to see who was bold enough to compete with him, Monkey Ling, for women.
In the afternoon, Li Xiaojun was cooking at home.
Suddenly, several officers barged into the courtyard.
“Who is Li…”
One officer was just about to shout, but in the next moment, his gaze became confused.
The other officers looked the same.
Then, a group of officers turned around and left.
“What’s going on?”
Seeing the group of officers come and then leave, Uncle Zeng was very surprised.
“I don’t know, maybe they got the wrong door,” Li Xiaojun replied lightly.
After the group of officers left, they headed straight to She’s House.
Soon, a group of officers arrived at She’s House.
“She Rujie, come with us for a while…”
“Gentlemen, may I ask what the matter is?”
“Don’t talk nonsense, come with us,” the leading officer harshly barked at She Rujie.
A few minutes later, She Rujie was taken away by a group of officers, and chaos erupted in She’s House.
