'Hap'
A pair of burly arms caught Xiu Qixuan's body into his arms.
Both of Xiu Qixuan's eyelids were still tightly clenched and the two arms of the girl involuntarily draped around the neck of the handsome man holding her.
Xiu Qixuan opened her eyelids quickly as she felt that her body did not hurt from the ground.
It looks very close to the handsome face strokes and stares that imply indifference.
Reflexively Xiu Qixuan lowered her arm from the neck of the handsome man.
"Just keep quiet?" Asked the handsome man to see the girl in his arms remained silent looking at him for quite a long time.
"Huh? Oh, Aiyaa.. Sorry—" replied Xiu Qixuan in a daze instantly jumping down.
"Quick inside," the Handsome Man's command preceded Xiu Qixuan to step into the back door of the residence.
Xiu Qixuan chased from the back with a slight lift of her long hanfu skirt.
"Teacher, Wait. Wait a minute," Call Xiu Qixuan to spread her arms in front of Ji Gui and block Ji Gui's path to step in.
"Get aside," said Ji Gui
"No want! What's the teacher doing here anyway?" Xiu Qixuan asked with a fierce face.
Because this is one of the safest places for Xiu Qixuan when he does not want to be found, because the location of this place is after the back door of the residence and jutting into the left corner which is a dead end.
Ji Gui was able to find him while the passing bronze-ranked servant was unable to see and find him.
"Smuch, just interrupt." Xiu Qixuan continued to grimly let out a little of his face so as not to look handsome teacher if he had just grumbled.
"I just came to the Xiu Residence to take care of some things with Xiu Huanran. However, your brother-in-law made a furore— ordering all the residents who work in the Residence to look for you." Clearly Ji Gui slightly looked down at Xiu Qixuan because of their vastly different height.
Today Ji Gui does not have a schedule to visit and teach Xiu Qixuan literature or art. That was why Xiu Qixuan asked.
"Er'Ge's in the House?" Xiu Qixuan asked with a hint of anxiety implied by her eyes.
Previously Xiu Qixuan had already had Xiao Rou investigate that the second brother was taking care of some work outside the residence for today. That was why he dared to act because there was only Yao Yunmei inside the residence. But, what did Ji Gui just say? Meet Xiu Huanran at the residence? The second brother would definitely be furious because his actions disturbed Yao Yunmei which could have been fatal to the woman's womb.
"Why? So scared of you with your second brother?" Ji Gui asked raising both eyebrows to tempt the beloved disciple.
Xiu Qixuan who heard the question from Ji Gui instantly changed her expression looking at Ji Gui strangely as if underestimating the question the teacher was asking. Then Xiu Qixuan said, "Teacher, this is your question which is correct? I'm a brave girl, just a Huanran what do I need to fear?"
"Oh, huh? Why didn't I know you were that brave? Isn't it, when Huanran is angry you can only grumble behind him. Huanran used to scold you because you always broke the iron sword when you practiced? And have you forge your own sword this time?" Ji Gui Ledek.
Xiu Qixuan put on an annoyed and dislikeed expression upon hearing the thing Ji Gui had thrown. The lips of this beautiful girl slightly opened up intending to reply to Ji Gui's words but the sound of footsteps approaching made her turn her head and clench her lips back.
Pulling Ji Gui's hand with great force and taking her hiding behind a wall that was slightly sticking out to block their bodies from being seen.
"What are you—" Ji Gui's remarks came to a halt as Xiu Qixuan impolitely covered her mouth with one of her arms.
Xiu Qixuan turned to the side of— after a while he saw the guard group coming out from the back door of the residence, he accidentally pulled Ji Gui closer so that no one would know of their whereabouts.
The handsome man traced a beautiful face stroke in front of him with both eyeballs that continued to stare intensely, unconsciously himself complacent with the scenery presented in front of him—beauty, beauty, the beauty and radiance of the aura were different from that of a little girl.
Xiu Qixuan was not aware of it, he was very focused on paying attention to the group of people who were expected to look for Yao Yunmei's top man.
After a short while the situation calmed down again, the guardian of the surrogate Yao Yunmei had already gone away.
Xiu Qixuan turned her face forward and how surprised Ji Gui's face was so close— only a few inches away. It's closer than ever!
Xiu Qixuan pushed Ji Gui slowly and distanced her body. Ji Gui looked very clumsy and embarrassed.
Meanwhile, Xiu Qixuan simply fell silent her face flat staring at Ji Gui with a doubtful look— did not know whether to apologize or not, no, the girl's self-esteem is high to apologize for her disrespect for the teacher.
They stared for a moment, the atmosphere between them looked very awkward.
However, Ji Gui first melted the awkward atmosphere between them with the words he uttered.
"I don't understand, Xiu's residence was very peaceful quiet before your arrival and now look at— there is always a furore because of your actions." Ji Gui said with a sigh as if concerned about what happened.
Ji Gui did not want to discuss the thing that he found embarrassing because he foolishly lost control of himself and fell asleep for beauty.
"You're exaggerating too much, Master. I am a good and obedient girl. They are the ones who are too excited and give excuses that always associate me," replied Xiu Qixuan dodged straightforwardly, also not intending to discuss the awkward things they experienced.
"Not to reason anymore, hurry back or I can't support you when Xiu Huanran or Xiu Jierui scold you." Said Ji Gui pulling Xiu Qixuan's arm dragging her in.
Xiu Qixuan was a little rebellious at first but after further exploring the words Ji Gui would defend her when her two angry older brothers sounded pretty good than she was facing herself better accompanied by the handsome teacher favoured.
"Teacher, can the return be a little late?" Asked Xiu Qixuan— because if he returned at this time, Yao Yunmei would definitely still tell him to make embroidery.
"Can't" Ji Gui replied briefly without turning his head and still stepped inside the residence through the back door.
"Sweet, shitty, just pointless just hiding." Xiu Qixuan's words were screeching softly but Ji Gui could still hear him.
"You haven't answered my question? Xiu Huanran is in the House?" Xiu Qixuan asked, allowing the side table to look at Ji Gui.
"At that time he still had a little business outside, maybe now he's back and in front of the main gate." Ji Gui is a fortune teller who can predict someone's arrival.
Xiu Qixuan who heard that instantly broke away from Ji Gui's grasp and dashed quickly back to Manor Xing.
This girl strongly believes the words that Ji Gui made because her teacher's analysis was always right, once he asked for the return of the father from the military camp because it had not returned for several days and Ji Gui answered appropriately about the return of the great general with time and so on.
"Why didn't you say it in the first place," Shouted Xiu Qixuan loudly, running up her long hanfu skirt. The girl ran very fast.
By going back and being seen in Manor Xing she can turn things around by giving some excuses and avoiding that she is running away or avoiding embroidery lessons and women's etiquette .
Ji Gui only shook his head and smiled faintly at the behavior of Xiu Qixuan who had already obtained female etiquette training but was still not well organized.
