However, just as Qi Jingyi stepped out of the study, Weng Ji ca running with a letter, Yang Ruxin’s letter.
"Brother Crown Prince, this is great." Qi Jingyi looked at the letter, visibly excited, and turned back into the study. "If these matters are implented, the Shen Family is dood to extinction." He placed the letter in front of the Crown Prince. "But this matter has to be entrusted to you, Brother Crown Prince. I’m leaving tomorrow."
"Don’t worry." The Crown Prince glanced at Yang Ruxin’s letter, with a slight smile on his lips. "By the way, you’re no longer young, you should..."
By the ti Qi Jingyi left the Crown Prince Residence, it was already getting dark. Initially, he intended to stay for a al, but then the Crown Prince brought up the issue of establishing a Crown Princess Consort, leaving Qi Jingyi no choice but to flee.
With Xinxin as a comparison, the won around him seed ordinary. Qi Jingyi sighed, knowing there was only one Xinxin and that she had already found a match, but still feeling unsatisfied. What if he married a troublemaker—wouldn’t that be annoying?
"Brother Jingyi, care to have a few drinks together?" As soon as he reached his doorstep, Qi Jingrong approached him.
"Let’s forget about that." Qi Jingyi chuckled, "We’re not on such great terms. Besides, we’re leaving together tomorrow, constantly being with each other would be tireso, wouldn’t it?"
Qi Jingrong frowned: "At least we’re brothers. It’s the New Year, do you have to be so blunt?"
"I’m a straightforward person, don’t do pretense." Qi Jingyi smirked, "Otherwise, it’s too exhausting."
"Alright, precisely because we’ll be spending so ti together, we should bond now." Qi Jingrong was not annoyed, "You’re close to Brother Crown Prince, I admire Third Brother, it doesn’t conflict, does it?" He paused, "Even if there’s a day we must take action, that’s in the future. Privately, we’re still brothers of the sa father."
"Well said." Qi Jingyi smacked his lips and nodded, "But what I want to know is, don’t you have won? Isn’t this the ti to be spending New Year with them?"
"Can we not talk about those won?" Qi Jingrong’s expression instantly soured, feeling overwheld thinking about the won at his residence.
Seeing Qi Jingrong clenching his teeth made Qi Jingyi feel pleased. He laughed heartily, "Alright, let’s not ntion them. But rember, since it was your idea to invite , you’ll be treating for tonight’s al, wherever we go to eat."
"Sounds good."
"Then let’s go to Baoyue Building. If soone’s earning money, might as well let it be ." Qi Jingyi set his steed down and called for the carriage, "Can’t ride a horse if we’re drinking."
"Brother Jingyi, when did you beco so thrifty?" Qi Jingrong also set his steed down and boarded the carriage.
"I have no choice, haven’t married, gotta save for it. Unlike you..."
Qi Jingrong felt the conversation couldn’t continue, and fell silent.
The carriage ride from the Wang Residence to Baoyue Building generally takes a bit over two quarters of an hour, but after about one quarter, it suddenly stopped.
"What happened?" Qi Jingyi asked.
The driver, Weng Ming, hurriedly replied, "There’s an argunt ahead, attracting many onlookers, blocking the road."
"Let’s take a detour then." Qi Jingrong suggested.
Qi Jingyi didn’t object, uninterested in quarrels.
Weng Ming acknowledged and started turning the carriage around.
"Wait." Qi Jingyi glanced outside inadvertently, suddenly stood up, and moved to go out.
