This was Tang Li’s first time playing mahjong. After sitting down, she started following what the other women were doing.
The lady boss was considerate. She specially brought a chair to her side for Qi Yihan to sit and watch.
At the same time, she told Tang Li how to play mahjong.
Tang Li listened casually. After the mahjong pieces were shuffled, she took a piece.
After drawing all her initial pieces, Tang Li asked Qi Yihan, “Hubby, do you think my pieces are good?”
Qi Yihan took a look and commented, “Not too bad.”
While Tang Li was looking at the pieces, the women kept their eyes on Qi Yihan. The women here were more straightforward, not ashamed to express their most honest opinion upon seeing a good-looking man.
“Miss, your husband is really home. You gotta keep an eye on him 24 hours.”
The dialect in Province S was close to Mandarin, so Qi Yihan understood.
Tang Li smiled confidently. “I don’t think there is a woman in this world who is prettier than me.”
“Haha… Girl, you’re telling the truth. The two of you are the prettiest people I’ve ever seen. You’re even better looking than the celebrities in those dramas. Are you celebrities?”
“If we were celebrities, we would definitely be famous all over the country. We wouldn’t show up in this kind of public space.”
“Yes, master.”
In no time, Tang Li won the first game.
The three women started to bewitch her.
“As expected, beginner’s luck is real. Sister, you’ve already won so much in the first round. In the next round, please show some mercy on us.”
When the second round started, Tang Li played while asking casually, “It’s kind of boring just playing. Why don’t you tell me some gossip? I don’t have any other hobbies, but I like to listen to gossip. Preferably gossip about romantic relationships.”
The women were all in their thirties. Those who played mahjong here all liked to gossip. Since Tang Li asked for it, they would satisfy her.
“Speaking of romantic gossip, there’s one recently. She’s the Third Miss of the Jiang family. I heard that she fell in love with a male ghost and wants to marry that ghost.”
“No way! Is there really a ghost-human love?”
“That’s just gossip. Actually, I think there’s something wrong with Third Miss Jiang. She treats the man she likes as a ghost.”
The woman pointed at her head.
“Then why is it rumored that she likes a male ghost and wants to marry him?”
“She said it herself. Some time ago, the news shocked everyone in the old district. The third Miss wanted to commit suicide and become a ghost to be with that male ghost.”
Tang Li threw out a mahjong piece. “What happened then?”
“She was found out by the Jiang family. At that time, she was drowning herself in the lake in her wedding dress. From then on, the Jiang family took turns to keep an eye on her 24 hours a day.”
“Has anyone seen that male ghost?”
“No. The weird thing is that a while ago, a master came to help the Jiang family, but they turned the master down and even cursed at him.”
“In that case, there must be something strange in the Jiang family.”
“Maybe, but no one has seen it. Plus, Third Miss is getting married the day after tomorrow. Maybe she’ll get better after marriage.”
“Why are they marrying their daughter off like that? Did the groom know that his wife is deranged?”
“Yes, he does. It was the groom who found a matchmaker to propose marriage. The groom is a playboy anyway, so he probably doesn’t care who he is gonna marry.”.”
“Maybe they’ll separate right after their marriage and live a life of their own.”
The gossip became more and more wild, but Tang Li enjoyed it very much.
After they were done gossiping, they had already played a few rounds. Only then did the women realize that Tang Li was winning all the time.
They stopped gossiping and started to play mahjong seriously.
They were pro mahjong players, so how could they lose to a beginner?
Tang Li still wanted to listen to gossip, so she deliberately took it easy on them.”
The women felt better.
When Tang Li and Qi Yihan returned to the courtyard, it was already midnight.
After showering, it was already one in the morning when they crawled in bed.
Tang Li laid in Qi Yihan’s arms while analyzing the situation with him.
“How about I go straight to the Jiang family to find out if there is a ghost or not? I feel that this Jiang family is the descendant of the Jiang Jingyu we’re looking for.”
“You can go and take a look, If you can get up tomorrow morning.”
“I can definitely get up.”
After saying that, Tang Li pressed one of her legs on his.
Qi Yihan patted her waist and said, “Don’t move your legs.”
“I didn’t move.”
Ever since the two of them got together, Tang Li had been hugging him to sleep every single night.
And the posture was getting more and more outrageous.
Now her legs were over him, almost approaching his chin.
Qi Yihan wrapped his legs around hers and threatened, “If you don’t wanna sleep, let’s exercise.”
“I don’t… Mm…”
Sealing her lips, he did not give her a chance to resist.
…
After the exercise ended, the woman fell into a deep slumber.
Qi Yihan looked down at her sleeping face for a while before letting go of her and walking out in his pajamas.
At this moment, a man in black and a mask was standing in the courtyard. The masked man reported to him, “Master, the fake Xuanyuan Qing is thinking of a way to get the people from the big families to go to the Xuanyuan Tomb with him.”
Qi Yihan’s expression was cold when he heard that, but he nodded and did not say anything.
The masked man looked at him and continued,
“Young Master Lingxuan and the fake Xuanyuan Qing are very close.”‘
“First Madam and her family hired hitmen, ready to attack Master Lingxuan.”
“Third Master Xu, who was taken away by Mr. Milus, has already returned to the Xu family yesterday. He and Milus have reached an agreement in private to deal with you together when you return.”
“The head of the Monchia family in Y Nation is looking for Madam. He wants to ask Madam to treat his mother.”
After finishing his report, the masked man shut his mouth and waited for Qi Yihan to make instructions.
Qi Yihan thought for a few seconds and said, “Help Xuanyuan Qing deal with the fake Xuanyuan Qing. As for the others, keep an eye on them.”
“Yes, master.”
The masked man left after saying that.
Qi Yihan turned around and returned to the bedroom. He gently got into the bed. Hugging her closely, he closed his eyes in satisfaction.
