Shen Qing's big eyes were full of astonishment.

Does she feel like she's being teased?

However, the quarterly banquet was in a good mood and turned to the little brother in charge of the kitchen, "Make more light meals in the past few days. In addition, starting from today, I will prepare some mung bean porridge every day. If anyone needs it, just Do more.”

The little brother was originally pale, but when he heard Ji Yanli talking to him, his expression turned to joy.

He hurriedly agreed, "Don't worry, Third Master, I'll order someone to do it right away."

After that, he left happily.

Shen Qing was silent, watching the little brother in the kitchen leave with a complicated expression.

At this time, only Ji Yanli and Shen Qing were left, and the atmosphere was extremely awkward.

Shen Qing was silent for a moment, thinking about the other party's request for the kitchen just now, and deeply felt that Ji Yanli was a good leader who was considerate of his subordinates.

Maybe, the mung bean porridge thing was a coincidence? Shen Qing blinked and secretly looked at the seasonal banquet.

The latter's face was expressionless, and his eyes met Shen Qing's.

Shen Qing: "..."

An embarrassing moment.

In order to ease the embarrassment, she gave a silly smile and praised, "Third Master, you are such a good person."

"Um."

The banquet ceremony pondered for a moment and suddenly said, "From tomorrow onwards, you will be waiting by my side."

etc.

What was said at the quarterly banquet?

Shen Qing was hit by the sudden news and didn't know how to react.

She said blankly, "What do you mean by Third Master, that I can follow Third Master in the future?"

She changed her mind.

However, after a moment of surprise, Shen Qing suddenly calmed down.

If this had been the case when she first entered Ji's Mansion, she would have happily accepted it.

However, after witnessing the cruelty of this world with her own eyes and knowing what it meant to be like a piece of grass, she would no longer naively think that she would be safe as long as she stayed by the hero's side.

At least, she needs to have matching abilities so that she can survive better in this cannibalistic world.

After thinking for only a moment, the joy in Shen Qing's eyes gradually disappeared.

She bowed in the direction of the quarterly banquet and said bluntly, "Shen Qing should show more love to the third master. However, I cannot agree to the third master's request for the time being."

Ji Yanli was slightly surprised and glanced at him deeply.

He was doing it on a whim, but then he remembered that Jin mentioned to him that Shen Qing seemed to have been wanting to meet him by chance in the past few days. He thought that he was trying to make himself fulfill his promise.

Just now I saw his cunning and praising eyes, and for some reason, he made such a remark by accident.

But he never expected that the other party would actually refuse.

"Why, you don't want to?"

The banquet ceremony showed an unknown smile.

"You swore before that you wanted to stay with me and share my worries as soon as possible. You lied to me, huh?"

The voice obviously had no fluctuations, but it made people shiver when they heard it.

Shen Qing touched the goosebumps on his arms and pretended not to notice the faint coldness shown by the quarterly banquet.

She blinked and complimented, "Third Master is wise and mighty, with a keen eye for fire and knowing every detail. If I really deceived Third Master, Third Master would not leave me in Ji's Mansion."

The banquet ceremony suddenly smiled, "You mean, you didn't lie to me?"

Shen Qing grinned and said, "The third master is wise."

"If it's not deception, why don't you want to?"

Shen Qing blinked, "I wonder if Third Master has ever heard the story of a young eagle flying?"

"I don't know."

Shen Qing said, "When the young eagle is very young, the mother eagle will push the young eagle off the edge of the cliff to let it practice flying at high altitudes.

Many young eagles died as a result, and those that survived would have their wings broken by their mothers and pushed down from high places again.

This kind of injury is a necessary stage for the growth of a young eagle. The mother eagle breaks the bones of the young eagle, which is the key to determining whether the young eagle can fly freely in the vast sky.
