CHAPTER 264: CHAPTER 264: FOOL

"Is there a sect that’s specifically for spying?"

After leaving the front of Song Mansion, Shen Qinglan asked Duan Yunfei.

Duan Yunfei shook his head, "Every sect has its own spies. Bigger sects even have spies all over the world, so no one specifically starts such a sect."

He looked at her, seemed to think of something, and said in a low voice, "Are you trying to ask about your aunt?"

"Yes!" She nodded.

Duan Yunfei sighed lightly. Recently, his focus was on finding Xushi and Xiao Wu’s later relocation place, having long forgotten about Dong Lian’s matter.

He said somewhat guiltily, "I’ve been so busy that I forgot such an important thing!"

Shen Qinglan shook her head, "You have your own things to handle, I can’t always rely on you!"

This would make her seem very useless.

"Not rely on me?" Duan Yunfei furrowed his brows, his voice a bit sullen, "Then who would you rely on?"

Shen Qinglan looked at him for a while, finally couldn’t help but laugh lightly, "Can’t I just rely on myself?"

"That’s no good!" He laughed, "Wouldn’t that make me seem very useless as a husband?"

"Duan Yunfei!"

"Hmm?"

Shen Qinglan laughed lightly, "Sometimes, I think you’re just a fool!"

"Why?" He was puzzled.

She looked at him and said, "Sometimes when others don’t want to use you, you instead become unhappy. Tell me, aren’t you silly?"

"Am I?" He gently rubbed her head, sighed lightly, "In my whole life, I’ve only acted foolishly when it comes to you!"

"Exactly!" Shen Qinglan curled her lips, "Keep your silliness to yourself here, I don’t like fools!"

With that, she winked at him and said, "Well, I’m going in first!"

He smiled, "Wife, come back soon, don’t leave me here to bake in the sun for too long!"

Shen Qinglan waved to him and went in.

Not long after she went in, she came back out.

"Let’s go!" She looked at him and said.

"Worried I’d really get baked under the sun from that joke?"

Seeing her sweating heavily, Duan Yunfei was somewhat helpless, hurriedly wiped her sweat with his sleeve.

Shen Qinglan seldom looked at Duan Yunfei this closely. Under the sunlight, Duan Yunfei’s skin was almost glowing white, his distinct handsome face appeared even more radiant in the sunshine.

Duan Yunfei really looked good, but it wasn’t a kind of delicate beauty; it was a kind of vigorous masculine charm.

"Alright!" He retracted his sleeve, took her hand and said, "Let’s go!"

Shen Qinglan hastily withdrew her gaze, coughed lightly, letting him lead her away.

"Oh~ meeting the mother-in-law returned?" Le Zhao, holding an apple in one hand and supporting the table with the other, raised an eyebrow and looked at them.

"Young Master, Miss Shen, you’ve returned!"

Xuan Ying came over holding a plate of iced pears.

He inserted a bamboo stick into two pieces, offering them to Shen Qinglan and Duan Yunfei who just sat down, "My brother just made these, perfect for cooling off."

Seeing this, Le Zhao was immediately displeased, "Ah Ying, give me a piece too!"

"Take it yourself." Xuan Ying sneered, "Aren’t your hands working?"

"Here, Mr. Yan, a piece for you."

Yan Yijie instantly smiled, and smiled very happily, "Thank you, Young Master Xuan!"

Le Zhao: ...

That’s too much!

Duan Yunfei and Shen Qinglan is one thing, but how come even Yan Yijie gets one, and not him?

"Ah Ying..."

He looked at Xuan Ying, his tone sounding pitiful.

"There’s more inside, Young Master, Miss Shen, enjoy slowly, I’ll go bring more."

Watching Xuan Ying’s departing figure, the three who got pears laughed out loud.
