Lian glanced down and looked at the banknotes that Duanmu Qingchen had placed on the table, the corners of her mouth slowly lifted.
Upon seeing this, Fu Mingrui immediately stood up, strode to Duanmu Qingchen's side, and stretched out his hand to pull him away: "Do you know what you are doing?!"
Duanmu Qingchen shook his head: "What the hell, tsk." He hugged Fu Mingrui's shoulders, "You know, I'm always very curious about these things, hiss... I say, do you still think of me as a brother? You didn't call me for such a good thing?"
Fu Mingrui was upset and lowered his voice: "I am here to investigate the case! This is not a good thing at all!"
Duanmu Qingchen raised his eyebrows, half-squinting his peach blossom eyes: "If it's not a good thing, why are you going to see it?" Duanmu Qingchen glanced at him, and those eyes in his charming peach blossom eyes were really like a woman's charming eyes, with a hint of coquettishness in the charming waves, "Hehe, anyway, I'm the one who has money now, not you." Duanmu Qingchen licked his lips, hooked Fu Mingrui and looked at Lian Youyou with a smile, "Youyou, right~~~"
Lian Youyou poured the tea that Duanmu Qingchen had poured for her back into the teapot and nodded: "Not bad~~~ I get paid to do things, whoever has money, I'll take with me."
Duanmu Qingchen saw Lian Youyou pour the tea he poured for her back into the teapot, and felt a little disappointed. That was the tea poured by him, the prince, and this woman didn't appreciate it. Then he thought about it again and remembered that the tea was drugged. How could he forget it? Lian Youyou naturally had to pour it back.
A look of disappointment flashed across Fu Mingrui's face. It turned out that he was being too sentimental. Lian Youyou only cared about money and not people. She didn't have any feelings for him as a colleague.
Duanmu Qingchen raised an eyebrow at Fu Mingrui and whispered proudly in Fu Mingrui's ear: "I like women who love money the most. She loves my money and I love her person. We owe nothing to each other." Duanmu Qingchen's tone was frivolous, implying that women like Lian Youyou who loved money and were heartless were the easiest to deal with.
Fu Mingrui was disappointed and lowered his head. In the end, he still lost to 50,000 taels.
Duanmu Qingchen happily walked forward and wanted to sit next to Lian Youyou, but Heiyan suddenly stretched out his cat claws and scratched him without any hesitation: "Shh!"
Duanmu Qingchen dodged hastily and looked at Heiyan with amusement: "You cat, you are so fierce."
"Hmm~~~" Lian Youyou poured out the water in the teacup and put it back on the table slowly. "My ex-husband was narrow-minded and jealous, so he caught a cat to be the door god~~~" Lian Youyou raised her lips and glanced at the door curtain in the backyard.
Suddenly, the door curtain was lifted, and Lin Tingjun came back carrying a big lunch basket.
He raised his head and saw Duanmu Qingchen and Fu Mingrui at a glance.
Duanmu Qingchen looked back and smiled. He knew Lin Tingjun. He had seen him during Ma Guanqun's public trial, but at that time everyone's attention was on Lian Youyou, let alone him, so he didn't pay much attention.
When Fu Mingrui saw Lin Tingjun coming back, he bowed calmly and said, "Brother Lin, sorry to bother you."
Lin Tingjun looked at the two of them, his expression somewhat gloomy. He ignored them and walked over to Lian Youyou with the lunch basket.
When Heiyan saw Lin Tingjun coming over, he was about to scratch him with his claws, but Lian Youyou raised her palm and slapped Heiyan behind him. With a "bang", Heiyan was knocked off the bench, and Lin Tingjun sat down at that moment.
Hei Yan was a little confused when he was slapped under the table. He turned around and glared at Lin Tingjun's legs under the table. He stretched out his claws and scratched him.
He scratches! He scratches! He scratches!
Huh? He was stunned. He suddenly realized that Lin Tingjun was wearing the Divine Armor of the Divine Realm! So he scratched for a long time but couldn't tear Lin Tingjun's clothes.
He stood in front of Lin Tingjun's legs like a little man. This woman actually gave Lin Tingjun the armor? This woman looked down on all the handsome men in the world, but was interested in such a mortal? !
Lin Tingjun began to open the food basket, and the aroma immediately filled the air.
He glanced at Duanmu Qingchen and Fu Mingrui, then at Lian Youyou: "Are they eating?"
"Eat, eat, eat!" Duanmu Qingchen was already hungry, so he sat down without any hesitation.
Lin Tingjun looked at him calmly: "I didn't prepare any for you."
"Uh..." Duanmu Qingchen was stunned for a moment, then laughed and looked at Lin Tingjun with interest, "You are Lin Tingjun, right? Why don't you kneel when you see me?"
Lin Tingjun looked at him indifferently for a while, then retracted his gaze: "I'm too lazy to kneel."
"Pfft! Hahahaha—" Duanmu Qingchen burst into laughter, slapping the table repeatedly and pointing at Fu Mingrui, "Mingrui, you should have told me earlier that Jiumen is so interesting! I should have come to Jiumen to play earlier."
Lin Tingjun took out the bowls and chopsticks. Quanjude provided thoughtful service and even prepared bowls and chopsticks. There were only four sets of bowls and chopsticks for Lian Youyou, He Shiqi, Xiao Lujie and him. There were really not many.
Fu Mingrui frowned, stepped forward and pulled Duanmu Qingchen again: "Let's go, don't make trouble here, put your money away!" Fu Mingrui went to pick up the tens of thousands of silver bills that Duanmu Qingchen had placed generously on the table.
"Snap!" Suddenly, Lin Tingjun pressed down the silver bills, raised his eyes and looked at Fu Mingrui indifferently, "Those placed on the table of Jiumen belong to Jiumen." Lin Tingjun had seen those silver bills early in the morning. The silver bills were printed with the royal seal, so he guessed that Lian Youyou and Duanmu Qingchen must have discussed some business again and made money for them, Jiumen.
"Pfft, hahaha--" Duanmu Qingchen laughed again, and pulled Fu Mingrui to sit down, "Sit down, sit down, I paid for this meal, you're welcome." Duanmu Qingchen picked up the chopsticks without hesitation, pointed at the silver on the table, shook his head, and said complacently, "Tsk, hey, what can I do? I'm the prince, I'm that rich, unlike some people who have to raise money for several years to get these 50,000 taels. Hey~~ Why is God so unfair? Let me be the prince~~"
Fu Mingrui sat next to him and felt really angry but had no place to vent.
Lian Youyou also smiled with pursed lips. This Duanmu Qingchen was really rude, but he was also the most noble one, so no one dared to hit him.
It happened that He Shiqi helped Sun Shujuan out. Sun Shujuan knelt down to Lian Youyou and said, "Thank you, doctor! Thank you, doctor!"
Following Sun Shujuan out was Yu Hezhang. He was still holding Yaer, but Yaer was awake at this moment. Her big eyes were rolling around and she was looking around curiously. She was an extremely smart and cute little girl.
When Fu Mingrui and Duanmu Qingchen saw that the girl woke up and didn't cry or make a fuss, they finally felt relieved and smiled with relief on their faces.
"Thank you, doctor—" Yu Hezhang also wanted to kneel.
Lian Youyou raised her hand: "Help them up."
He Shiqi immediately supported Yu Hezhang and then helped Sun Shujuan up: "The master told you not to kneel anymore."
Lin Tingjun looked at the old couple and the little girl who had appeared in the yard, then he withdrew his gaze and continued to eat, with an indifferent expression, as if he didn't care what had happened here.
"Do you want to eat together?" Lian Youyou pointed at the food on the table.
Sun Shujuan waved her hands repeatedly, and her old face could not hide the joy: "The girl is awake, go back and eat the preserved egg and lean meat porridge I made. Oh, by the way, this is the consultation fee." Sun Shujuan took out the brocade box again. (To be continued)
