Cute Wife Gourmet

Chapter 69 There is adultery
When Xia Chunyu saw the banknotes and heard what the guard told him, his face darkened as if someone had splashed ink all over it.

"What about people?"

The guard saw that the prince looked unhappy and replied tremblingly, "Let's go."

"How long?"

"As soon as he left, I came to report to the prince. I believe he won't go far."

"Prepare the horses." Xia Chunyu immediately went after Ye Jiayao.

Sure enough, I saw Yaoyao not far away. It was so late, and I was not afraid of running into bad guys when I was wandering on the street alone.

Xia Chunyu rode his horse forward, approached her, and reached out his long arm to grab her.

When Ye Jiayao heard the sound of horse hooves, she was about to move aside, but she was suddenly lifted into the air.

Ye Jiayao, still in shock, screamed.

Xia Chunyu pressed her to sit in front of him and held her tightly with one hand, fearing that she would fall.

He whispered, "Shut up."

Ye Jiayao closed her mouth and glared at the stupid donkey: "Why did you arrest me?"

Xia Chunyu raised his eyebrows: "Is this called arrest?"

"If this isn't arrest, then what is it? Let me go now."

"No, you came to me on your own, how could I let you go?" Xia Chunyu said with a double meaning.

"I'm looking for you to pay you back and to warn you at the same time." Ye Jiayao said fiercely.

"No matter why, since you're here, let's have a good chat." Xia Chunyu had long guessed that she would not accept his kindness, but whether she accepted it was her business, and whether she did it or not was his business.

"What can I talk about with you? Are we familiar with each other? We have just acted in a play together." Ye Jiayao spoke coldly. She was held in his arms. As the horse's pace moved, she rubbed his solid chest from time to time. She couldn't help but think of those blushing scenes, and then her heartbeat began to change its rhythm.

"Can you please stop mentioning the word acting? You should be able to understand my situation at that time." Xia Chunyu rubbed his chin against her ear, and his fine hair fluttered on his face, making him feel itchy and soft in his heart. He felt particularly at ease when he saw her, even if she didn't look good to him.

Ye Jiayao rolled her eyes and thought, I don't understand you, what does your being an undercover agent have to do with not letting Song Qi call her sister-in-law? To put it bluntly, if you don't like it, then don't like it. If you dislike it, then dislike it. Although I am thick-skinned, I am still very thin-skinned. I still know what self-knowledge is.

"Okay, let's not talk about the past. Can't we just pretend we don't know each other? You be the prince, and I be my little chef. We have nothing to do with each other, okay?" Ye Jiayao said in a muffled voice.

"No." Xia Chunyu rejected her request flatly.

Phew… The horse stopped, Xia Chunyu got off the horse, and was about to hug her, but she jumped off by herself, still standing steadily. Xia Chunyu complained in his heart: Woman, can't you pretend to be weak?

Ye Jiayao clapped her hands: "I'm leaving, no need to see me off, see you later." She turned around and was about to slip away.

Xia Chunyu pulled her back and said, "Let's talk about it."

"Hey, young master, your nightlife should be floating on the river in a pleasure boat, drinking wine, listening to music, and hugging a beauty, instead of flirting with people here." Ye Jiayao said sarcastically.

Xia Chunyu's mouth curled up: "Good idea, I'm planning to do this, come on!"

Having said that, he dragged Ye Jiayao towards the dock.

"Hey, don't corrupt me. I'm a poor boy and I won't learn the ways of you playboys." Ye Jiayao struggled.

"It's okay, I'll treat you, you don't have to pay." Xia Chunyu pulled her directly onto a houseboat.

"Boatman, start the boat."

The boatman was overjoyed. It was so late, he thought there would be no business, but there were still customers. He immediately shouted, "Yes, sir, start the boat right away."

There are usually young boys or girls in the pleasure boats, depending on the guests' preferences.

Xia Chunyu pulled her to sit down, and then a seductively dressed woman served snacks and wine, her eyes were charming, and her voice was charming: "Sir, what else do you need?"

From beginning to end, the woman didn't even look at Ye Jiayao. What's so good about such a shabby boy? The young man in gorgeous clothes is the financial sponsor!

Xia Chunyu put a hundred taels of silver on the table and said, "Bring up whatever you have, and make a pot of Lu'an tea."

The woman's eyes lit up and she said with a smile, "Wait a moment, sir. I'll bring it right over."

Ye Jiayao looked at the 100-liang silver note and thought, this pleasure boat is really profitable. Just get some wine and a few plates of dried fruits, and you can earn 100 liang of silver by floating on the river. When I have money, I will also contract a few pleasure boats.

Seeing her staring at the banknote, Xia Chunyu thought she was distressed, so he sneered and said, "I'm inviting you to go boating, so you should accept this banknote."

Ye Jiayao's eyes widened immediately: "Boatman, stop the boat."

Damn it, it's too wicked, I was dragged up here by you! I don't give a shit about this banknote.

The boatman would naturally not stop the boat unless the young man in gorgeous clothes asked for it.

Ye Jiayao was so angry that she wanted to kick that guy when she saw him crossing his arms with a smug look on his face.

The beautiful lady brought agate grapes, almond preserves, a stack of crispy fried dried fish, and a pot of Liu'an Guapian. "Xia Chunyu raised his hand to signal her to leave.

"Do you want to know about Aunt Jiang's condition?" Xia Chunyu poured tea for Ye Jiayao and poured himself a glass of wine.

Ye Jiayao rolled her eyes and ignored him.

Xia Chunyu just kept saying, "The family will come to Nanjing soon. They should still be in Jining to see their son. They had no choice but to go up the mountain to become a bandit. This time, Uncle Jiang has made a great contribution. I asked the government to clear his case. Finally, he can return home with confidence."

Ye Jiayao was very pleased, but also very curious about what crime Uncle Jiang could have committed. However, she did not show it on her face.

"Do you know why they went up the mountain to become bandits?"

"A bully in their village took a fancy to Uncle Jiang's little daughter and wanted to defile her. Uncle Jiang was so angry that he picked up a hoe and beat the bully to death."

Ye Jiayao thought to herself: I didn’t realize that the honest Uncle Jiang is so courageous.

"As for Aunt Zhao and the people who were abducted to the mountain, I released them all. As for the lackeys who didn't do anything bad, I'll leave them to Feng Chaolin to take care of them."

Ye Jiayao finally couldn't help asking, "What about Peng Wu? I heard that he was framed by you."

Xia Chunyu squinted at her and smiled in an ambiguous way: "What kind of person do you think Peng Wu is?"

Ye Jiayao curled her lips and said, "Anyway, he treats me very well, calling me sister-in-law and helping me with work very diligently."

Xia Chunyu sneered, "You can't judge a person by his appearance. He doesn't talk much and is quite hardworking, but he is the most brutal killer in Black Wind Hill. When Bai Chongye's troops were first formed, most of the murders were committed by him and Sheng Wu. The whole village was bloodbathed! Their hands are covered in blood."

Ye Jiayao was stunned. It was true that one could judge a person by his appearance but not by his heart.

"As a serious criminal, he was handed over to the government for punishment, and he probably won't escape death." Xia Chunyu drank the wine in his glass. This topic seemed too heavy and a bit off the original intention. His original intention was to talk about some familiar people and recall the past to get closer.

Ye Jiayao drank her tea silently, feeling very uncomfortable. Even if he was as bad as the second in command, his actions before his death had already cleared her mind. It didn't matter what others thought of him, even the worst people had good sides.

"Yaoyao, go back to the Ye family. With me here, the Ye family won't dare to do anything to you again." Xia Chunyu got back to the point. This was part of his plan.

Ye Jiayao looked at him like he was an idiot: "Don't worry about my affairs."

She was so happy now, why did she go back to face those annoying guys? Was she just masochistic? Unless she was crazy.

"Do you want to stay in heaven forever?"

"Of course not. I'll stay for three years at most, and then I'll open my own restaurant and make a lot of money." Ye Jiayao said casually. Uh... why did she tell him her plan?

"So you plan to be neither male nor female for the rest of your life?" Xia Chunyu asked.

Ye Jiayao blinked her eyes and said dissatisfiedly, "What do you mean by neither man nor woman? Everyone praises me as a handsome young man, why does it sound so ugly when it comes to you?"

Xia Chunyu was so upset that his head was full of black lines. She actually had the audacity to say that she was handsome. He was really impressed by her.

"The word 'handsome' is mostly used to compliment women. For men, words like 'handsome', 'elegant', 'dignified', 'imposing', etc. do you understand? When people say you are handsome, it means that you have a little bit of that..." Xia Chunyu said sarcastically.

Ye Jiayao put down the teacup and glared, "Which one? You are the only one who has a complicated mind."

Xia Chunyu disagreed: "That's because I know your true appearance." As he spoke, his eyes moved towards her chest which was flattened by the cloth.

Ye Jiayao quickly covered her chest: "Why are your eyes rolling around?" Thinking of how he saw her naked last night, Ye Jiayao wanted to vomit blood. Even though he had seen her naked a long time ago, they had nothing to do now, so why did he see her?

Xia Chunyu chuckled: "I heard that if you wrap yourself like this frequently, your blood flow will be blocked and you may get sick easily."

"It's none of your business." Ye Jiayao rolled her eyes at him.

A pleasure boat floated over, and the two pleasure boats were almost side by side. The purpose of sitting on a pleasure boat on a summer night is to stay cool, so the windows on both sides are fully opened to let in the cool breeze, and you can also enjoy the night view of the river.

"Huh? Isn't that Xia Chunyu?" Zhao Qixuan, who was boating on the river again, spotted Xia Chunyu and waved the fan in his hand excitedly.

"Xia Chunyu..."

Xia Chunyu looked up and saw that it was Zhao Qixuan. He nodded slightly and raised his glass as a greeting.

Ye Jiayao thought the voice was familiar, so she leaned over to take a look.

When Zhao Qixuan looked over, he also saw him: "Uh, Li Yao, you're here too?"

This... this was too unexpected. If Li Yao was boating on the lake with Xiao Jing, he could understand it, but why was he with Xia Chunyu? The point was, it was already very late, and only a night wanderer like him was still floating on the river.

Ye Jiayao smiled awkwardly and cursed herself inwardly, why was she sticking her head out? Curiosity killed the cat.

Zhao Qixuan invited: "Xia Chunyu, would you like to come over for a drink?"

Xia Chunyu smiled faintly: "No, let's get together another day!"

Zhao Qixuan smiled widely: "Okay, I'll host you some other day."

The two pleasure boats slowly moved away from each other. Zhao Qixuan was full of doubts. He didn't come even though I invited him to drink. He wanted to spend time alone together! Did Xiaojing know about this?
