Chapter 188: Someone’s Playing Matchmaker 2

The room was as cold as an ice cellar.

Uh…

Under the moonlight, Qi Qingyao’s gaze swept over the beds, and noted that they were neat, like they had not been slept on.

Then she looked at the open window.

Qi Qingyao’s face sank.

The past few days, she often happened across the two men by the stairwell. They would smell of the morning dew; it was obvious that they had not just woken up and that they had come back from outdoors.

The excuses they gave were that they had gone to the toilet, or that they had gone out for a walk. Shoddy excuses, in general.

She had not bothered to think too much about it, believing their words.

Now it seemed like…

They were not in the room every night.

D*mn it, why did she book two rooms, then?

Did it look like she had extra money to spare?

Qi Qingyao was so furious she almost had the servant cancel the booking for this room, but she managed to resist the urge in the nick of time.

She stomped back to her room, carrying the treats.

Xiaobao was still reading. He saw that his mother was furious, and so he asked tentatively, “Mother?”

Qi Qingyao set the plate on the table. “Eat.”

Dabao and Erniu, the two little greedy children, quickly slumped on the table. Dabao asked with concern, “What happened, Mother?”

“You might not understand what I’m going to say, but this might be very important.” Qi Qingyao caressed her chin.

The children looked at her immediately.

Mother had something she wanted to discuss with them!

Qi Qingyao said, after some consideration, “Jiang Bai and Si Jin, who live in the next room, disappear every night. Where do you think they’ve gone to?”

“I don’t know.” Erniu tilted her head.

“Don’t adults sleep at night?” Dabao was speechless.

Xiaobao said, “They must have good stamina.” Not to mention, they had to work at the construction site every day too!

Qi Qingyao analyzed, “Si Jin might have gone out to play. Jiang Bai, though… Hmph!” After a pause, she said seriously to the kids, “Why do I feel like he regained his memories long ago? He knows who he is, and he deliberately didn’t leave. He’s hiding behind me to avoid disaster.”

His enemies would have found him immediately if he were alone.

Xiaobao thought about it for a while and suggested, “Mother, if you’re having so many doubts, why not tail him tomorrow night?”

“You’re right! I’ll do as you say. I’ll follow him tomorrow night.”

…

The next day…

Qi Qingyao woke up early and headed to the next room to wait for the two men.

After sunrise, a man flew in from the window. Jiang Yeqian had not expected Qi Qingyao to be in the room, and so he immediately froze.

Their eyes met.

Qi Qingyao waved at him with a smile on her face.

“Good morning.”

Just as she was about to interrogate him about everything, she detected the smell of liquor around him. It was so spicy she nearly had to take a few steps back. She covered her nose. “Did you go out to drink last night?”

Jiang Yeqian was still sober. He answered, “I drank a little.”

A little? “You reek of liquor. Just how much did you drink?”

“A little,” Jiang Yeqian repeated persistently.

“Too much, that’s what I think,” Qi Qingyao said.

Did he actually just go out for a drink the previous night? And had he not recovered his memories yet?

“Why did you go out for a drink out of the blue? Are you a drunkard?” Qi Qingyao asked as she walked out.

Just as she opened the door, an arm wrapped around her neck, and she was pulled backward.

Qi Qingyao thought that she would fall to the floor, but she collided with someone’s chest.

She felt like her nose would become lopsided after the crash. Tears collected at the rims of her eyes.

“What are you doing?” She was so furious she glared up at him.

“I…”

Jiang Yeqian lowered his head, and his gaze met that of the slender woman in his arms. The woman’s eyes were watery, looking pitifully at him.

The woman, who was normally rather haughty, looked particularly innocent in his arms.

Jiang Yeqian swallowed, looking intently at her red, pouty lips.

Unconsciously, he lowered his head further.
