  Chapter 68 Good Man

  How could it be different?

  Before, she had seen the scene of He Qingxiao being smashed by a flower pot from the sky, and the scene of He Qingxiao being stabbed in the abdomen with a dagger by the arrested person.

  In order to repay He Qingxiao's help, she specially reminded that these things did not happen. But this time, she didn't say anything.

etc-

  Xin You's heart moved, and he suddenly thought of a possibility: Maybe He Qingxiao's avoidance of the disaster in the picture has nothing to do with her at all!

  Without her reminder, he would also avoid the flower pot that fell from the sky; without her reminder, he would also avoid the dagger stabbing him; without her reminder, he would also avoid the poison in the tea...

  From the very beginning, her reminders were of little use to him.

  Those thoughts flashed through Xin You's mind, and she said with a pale face, "I accidentally saw earlier that this little girl put tea on that table on the way up the stairs carrying tea."

  As soon as the words came out, everyone's eyes fell on the guy.

   "Say, what's going on!" A Jinlin guard lifted the guy up.

The clerk shivered: "I think about it, I remembered! The little man came out of the back hall with tea, and there happened to be a table of guests who said that the tea had been spilled, so he put the tea on the table and wiped the table. .”

   "Which table?"

  The guy moved his eyes and looked at a table.

  The table is very close to the countertop, just two or three steps away.

  The people at that table turned pale with fright, and hurriedly said, "We haven't spilled any tea!"

  The guy took a closer look, and said hesitantly, "It's the guests sitting here, but not them. Maybe the guests changed later, and the villain is mainly responsible for the upstairs, so I don't know..."

   Another guy who was busy in the lobby hurriedly said: "I still have a little impression. There were two guests at this table before, and the current guests came after those two guests checked out."

  The previous clerk hurriedly added: "When the villain went to wipe the table, there was only one guest sitting."

   "Where is he sitting?" He Qingxiao asked calmly.

   "Sit in this chair." The guy pointed, facing the direction of the countertop.

   That is to say, the person sitting here happens to have a panoramic view of the table.

  He Qingxiao was slightly silent, and then looked at Xin You: "Miss Kou saw that Xiao Er put down the tea to wipe the table, did you notice if anyone passed by the table?"

   "I saw a man going over there." Xin You pointed.

  Since He Qingxiao did not die as shown in the picture, there is no need for her to hide it. Finding out who poisoned her may yield new gains.

   Besides, she might not be the only one who noticed this in the lobby.

  As Xin You expected, there were two other people in the lobby who noticed the man passing the table. One noticed it by accident, and the other met him on the way back from the cleaning room.

  It's a pity that no one, including the shopkeeper of the teahouse, could tell the identity of the guests at that table.

  He Qingxiao ordered his subordinates: "Write down the names and addresses of the people present, and let them go back first."

   The two men looked at each other.

  Your Excellency is really kind, if you change to other adults, these people will all be arrested and sent to prison.

  When Jin Linwei questioned Duan Shaoqing, He Qingxiao signaled his men to go ask others.

   "I disturbed Mr. Duan."

  Facing He Qingxiao's politeness, Duan Shaoqing didn't dare to take it too seriously, and hurriedly said: "It's fine, Mr. He."

   "Thank you, Ms. Kou, for the information." He Qingxiao looked at Xinyou.

  Xin You finally collected her emotions at this time, showing an impeccable smile: "Master He is polite, I hope you can find out the person who poisoned you sooner."

   "It's busy here, Miss Kou, go back with Uncle Ling sooner."

  Duan Shaoqing twitched the corners of his mouth.

  Young men and women, who are neither relatives nor relatives, have a passionate chat in front of an elder, which is really inappropriate.

  Thinking about He Qingxiao's identity, he could only slander him like this, and he didn't dare to show it on the face. Duan Shaoqing said a few words politely, and couldn't wait to take Xin You out of the teahouse.

  Outsiders of the teahouse come and go, and the smell of wine comes from the Yuelai Restaurant opposite.

  Duan Shaoqing breathed a sigh of relief, and called a carriage to take Xin You back to Qingsong Bookstore.

  When the carriage started, a plain hand raised the curtains, revealing the girl's calm face.

   "Uncle, don't forget to tell grandma."

   Before Duan Shaoqing could respond, Su Qing's curtain fell, and the carriage creaked and moved forward.

  Duan Shaoqing painted a layer of black paint on his face, and strode towards the Yamen of Taipu Temple.

  Backing back to the east courtyard, Xin You went into the back room and sat on the bed, lost in thought.

  Since He Qingxiao can avoid those disasters, the scene in the picture will not exist, so why can she see such a picture?

   Isn't this a contradiction?

   For the first time, Xin You doubted her special ability.

   Xiaolian's voice came from outside the door: "Girl, do you want some tea?"

  Hearing the word "drink tea", Xinyou laughed at herself.

   Sure enough, she didn't have the luck of taking shortcuts, and He Qingxiao's life still had to be taken by herself.

  The unbearable, struggling, and conflicts while waiting for the person upstairs to get poisoned all turned into ridiculous at this moment, which made Xin You calm down.

   "Bring it in."

  Xiao Lian came in with a tray and handed Xin You a cup of tea.

  Xin You took it and took a sip.

   "Girl."

"how?"

  Xiao Lian couldn't hide the worry in her eyes: "If there is anything the servant girl can do, just tell me."

  Xin You slightly bent her lips: "Okay."

   "The servant girl is serious! Although the servant girl has no skills, as long as the girl orders, she will definitely try her best to do it."

  Xin You put down the teacup: "Then you should pay attention to the wind outside these two days to see if there is anything about Mr. He."

   "Master He?"

   "Yes. Master He was poisoned in a teahouse today, and the murderer is currently being traced—"

   "Is Master He all right?" Xiao Lian covered her mouth and exclaimed.

   Seeing Xiaolian's worry, Xin You felt complicated: "He's fine. I was also in that teahouse at the time, so I was more curious about the follow-up. Don't deliberately inquire, lest it cause unnecessary misunderstandings."

   "The servant girl understands."

   After being silent for a while, Xin You asked, "Xiao Lian, what kind of person do you think Mr. He is?"

   "Master He is a good man." Xiao Lian said without hesitation.

  Xin You smiled: "So sure?"

   "A person like Mr. He who rescues strangers without asking for anything in return is definitely not a bad person?"

   "Yeah, not a bad person." Xin You murmured.

  But good people will also obey others and owe blood debts.

  Xin You didn't go out for the next few days, Xiao Lian quietly paid attention, and didn't hear any comments about He Qingxiao. It seemed that the poisoning in the teahouse never happened.

  Until this day, He Qingxiao stepped into Qingsong Bookstore, and saw Xin You who was flipping through books deep in the bookshelf.

  It was dusk, but He Qingxiao recognized at a glance that what she was reading was the travel notes he was reading earlier.

  He Qingxiao's eyes darkened, and he walked over.

  Xin You looked over.

  He Qingxiao stood beside her: "The light is not good, Miss Kou hurt her eyes carefully."
