Chapter 106: Brothers at Odds – Zuo Xingyu comes to the door

This scene was all seen in the eyes of the constable behind them.

He ordered directly: “Have two people take them in for questioning separately and have them recount everything they know. The more clues we gather, the sooner we can find the real culprit.”

Liu Sisi glanced back at the chaotic crowd, but Di Yelei dragged her away quickly.

“Ye Lei, what’s wrong with you?”

Barely keeping up with his pace, Liu Sisi couldn’t help but ask.

“Nothing’s wrong, I just remembered that the well at home hasn’t been built yet, so we need to hurry back and work on it.” Di Yelei said without turning his head.

Liu Sisi instinctively retorted: “But…”

Di Yelei pushed open the main gate of the courtyard, looked back at her with a piercing gaze, and then smiled: “What else is there to say, silly girl, don’t overthink it.”

As he spoke, he couldn’t help but stretch out his arms and gently hug her.

In a place where she couldn’t see, he frowned worriedly, but his gaze was firm: “Don’t be afraid, Sisi! I’ll be by your side to protect you and won’t let anyone hurt you. Even if the sky falls, I, Di Yelei, will hold it up for you!”

Burying her head in his chest and listening to his strong heartbeat, a sense of happiness spread from the bottom of her heart, making Liu Sisi comfortably close her eyes.

She sighed softly: “I understand…”

So, this is the happiness she has been longing for!

The feeling of being loved and pampered is far better than the countless times the two of them had argued and felt heartbroken! Liu Sisi couldn’t help but lift the corners of her mouth.

Her hand unconsciously drew circles on his chest, teasing him.

She knew he was hiding something from her.

But who doesn’t have a little secret they can’t share with outsiders? She was no exception! Naturally, she wouldn’t blame him.

“Sisi, what are you doing?”

Di Yelei gasped and grabbed her mischievous little hand, gritting his teeth.

Could any real man withstand such a tease?

He was no eunuch!

“Ah? No, nothing…”

Liu Sisi hurriedly pulled back her hand, covering her mouth and laughing softly, deliberately teasing him to ease his tense mood.

Di Yelei, half doting, half scolding, gently pinched her little nose: “You, Sisi, you little troublemaker, my little demon!”

He wanted to hold her tightly, love her, and pamper her to the bone; yet he feared alarming her or scaring her away! He could only gently embrace her in his arms, inhaling the fragrance of her hair.

They shared an intimate moment for a while before reluctantly separating from each other.

Liu Sisi returned to her room to continue copying books, while Di Yelei continued to work on the opening of the well.

He seemed to be preoccupied, and the frolicking dogs and the chirping YingEr by his side couldn’t make him relax.

Not long after, Zhang Peng pulled up with several stone slabs on a handcart, making Liu Sisi jump!
