After Mistakenly Binding The Matchmaker System

Tyrants Beloved (25.2)

The Li Mansion was Li Shu's territory. He was now engaged in a "high-risk profession", so to be cautious, he had 1314 make some adjustments. If anything happened at the Li Mansion, he had to know immediately.

Managing the rear was crucial; he didn't want to admit defeat one day because he neglected the larger picture.

Li Shu leaned against the carriage wall with half closed eyes and casually made a sound of agreement. He didn't know where the male protagonist intended to take him, the carriage had been on the road for nearly two hours and it still hadn't reached the destination.

Just when he was wondering when they would arrive, the carriage stopped. Without asking, Qi Mingxuan directly lifted Li Shu and said, "I'll take you inside."

This time, Li Shu was brought to an elegant mountain courtyard. He glanced around; compared to the upgradable courtyard Qi Mingxuan had taken him to last time, this one appeared more ordinary. Despite its small size, the arrangement had a unique charm. Every flower, stone, plant and tree showed the owner's care for this place.

With this, Qi Mingxuan now had two extraordinary residences around the outskirts of the capital. These two places hadn't appeared in the plot at all, so he was a little curious. "How many houses do you have around the city outskirts?"

He was asking about the suburbs, which naturally meant only the area around the capital. Being able to conceal two such locations under the emperor's nose revealed a glimpse of the male protagonist's influence.

"Three, there's another one a bit farther away, larger than this. If Zi Shu is interested, you can visit it next time."

The young man lay obediently in his arms. He raised his head slightly when he spoke, revealing his graceful neck and small Adam's apple. His usually cool and indifferent eyes now carried a childlike curiosity. Qi Mingxuan couldn't resist and answered all the young man's questions.

This scene made the man in black trailing behind them keep his head low to hide the shock on his face. His master and Master Li...

He didn't dare to think more and dared not look. He silently lagged five steps behind the two, not daring to overstep.

There was an old man waiting in the courtyard. Seeing Qi Mingxuan carrying someone off the carriage, he quickly walked over to receive the person. Qi Mingxuan dodged slightly, glanced at the person, and confidently walked ahead while holding the young man. A single glance sent shivers down the person's spine, causing them to retreat half a step, not daring to approach.

Having brought the person to the prepared room, Qi Mingxuan carefully arranged everything. "The attendants are waiting outside. If you have any requests, you can call them directly. If you're not comfortable, I can send someone to bring your maid."

"No need. I'm not that picky." Li Shu didn't think twice and directly refused. He was only staying for a day, and bringing his maid would be unnecessary. Besides, he had long been accustomed to living alone and didn't need anyone to serve him.

"Is Your Highness planning to stay here and not return to the capital?" If both of them disappeared for a day, what would people in the capital think, especially the emperor, who had stationed many eyes around them? Now was not the time to fall out with the emperor.

"The emperor should know about Zi Shu's injury by now. As for the others, they won't focus on this for long."

What can quickly divert someone's attention? Just throw out something more sensational and controversial. As long as that matter had a significant impact, people wouldn't care about other trivial matters.
