When Aiden met Julian for the first time, he thought he was handsome and very stunning.
The second time was on the roof of the car. I felt that he must be someone not easy to mess with. Later, when I heard about Tianhe Pavilion from Graham, I guessed that his status in the martial arts world was probably not low, and that he lived a very unbridled life.
And the third time... is right now in bed.
Aiden felt that to say that he acted recklessly was an understatement; he was simply not a normal person.
Who in their right mind would climb into someone's bed without any qualms after having only met them once and spoken a few words to them the next time they meet?
He just climbed and he still greeted me as if nothing had happened, and even said "What a coincidence, we meet again". He really had the nerve to say that. Did he think this was on the main street?
Of course, intentional seduction is excluded.
But no matter how Aiden looked at it, he didn't think that this master had that intention.
But he couldn't fight, so he swallowed the curse words in his mouth and simply said politely: "What a coincidence, good morning."
Julian raised his eyebrows slightly.
He thought of several possible reactions that Aiden might have, and was prepared to press acupoints when Aiden screamed. However, even though his guess included "Aiden would remain calm," he did not expect Aiden to say good morning without changing his expression.
He smiled: "Morning."
After a slight pause, he said considerately, "You seem a little sleepy, why don't you take a nap?"
Aiden said: "No."
He just wanted to turn over and calm down, but he still had to face reality after calming down. He stood up and asked kindly, "Mr. Qiao, are you sleepy? If you are, sleep a little longer."
Seeing that he didn't look sleepy, Julian thought he was interesting and said with a smile, "I'm not sleepy either."
After saying this, he lifted the bed curtain and got out of bed swiftly.
Aiden then noticed that he was only touching the edge of the bed, and his feet were on the bed frame without even taking off his shoes. He thought that he might be hiding from people, so he finally asked the question that he should have asked under normal circumstances: "Why is Mr. Qiao in my bed?"
Julian said: "I am a little tired after traveling all night. Since you are not awake, I will borrow your bed to rest for a while. We are all men anyway, so it doesn't matter."
All right, whatever you say goes.
But if you knew my s3xual orientation, I wonder if you would care.
Aiden muttered inwardly, got out of bed, put on his clothes, walked to the table, poured a glass of water for each other, and asked, "Did Mr. Qiao come to see me on purpose, or was he just passing by?"
Julian took a look.
After Aiden and his friends moved into Chunze Villa, they changed into the clothes of people from the Central Plains. Probably because they were not used to it yet, the collar of their robes was a little messy, but it didn't look sloppy. Instead, it was set off by their casual look, making them look a bit chic.
He smiled and walked over to sit opposite him: "I came to see you."
Aiden said: "What's the matter?"
Julian said: "Are you going to Shenxue Peak to pray for blessings?"
Aiden said: "Yes."
Julian said: "I think you need a book boy."
Aiden was startled: "Bookboy?"
Julian stretched out his hand and pointed at himself.
Aiden reacted silently and guessed: "To investigate their young master's affairs?"
Julian smiled and said, "Oh, you know?"
Aiden said: "I heard from Master Shi, have you found any clues?"
"No," Julian said, "but it is indeed strange that he suddenly went crazy."
And the timing is very important.
If it's not towards the person, then it's towards the matter.
His men are investigating the people, and he decided to monitor the matter personally. If the mastermind behind this is to sabotage the blessing of Chunze Villa, he might take action again when he sees that they have found a replacement.
Aiden had also thought about this possibility. His safety issue happened to be one of the details he had to finalize with Graham recently, but now Julian volunteered... He asked: "How is Mr. Qiao's martial arts?"
Julian smiled confidently: "It's hard to find an opponent."
Aiden took a sip of water and continued to ask: "Does Master Shi know about this?"
Julian shook his head: "Before the matter is fully investigated, the fewer people who know about it, the better."
When Aiden heard this, he was basically certain that he had sneaked in.
Since he was able to evade those guards, his martial arts should be better than Graham's men, but there is a big problem here. He looked at Julian's figure and said, "Mr. Qiao doesn't look like a book boy. It will easily arouse suspicion, right?"
Julian said: "I can shrink my body and change my appearance."
"......" Aiden said, "Then I have no problem."
Talking to smart people saves time and effort. Julian smiled, agreed on a time and place to meet him, and then stood up to say goodbye. Before leaving, he remembered something and turned back to remind him: "Your friend named Jiang may have had some problems. You'd better go and check it out. He's over there in the rockery."
He arrived at the villa at daybreak. He was going to jump over the rockery, but he saw a person standing there, so he had to change his route. The guard noticed his movements. Fortunately, the guard didn't see him, but looked around in confusion, so he went into the person's bed. But he admitted that part of the reason was that he wanted to see Aiden's reaction out of a bad taste.
"Oh, him," Aiden guessed that it was just another night of playing chess, and said expressionlessly, "If he is in a daze, then it's okay, don't worry about him."
Julian didn't care anymore and turned away.
Aiden slowly finished a glass of water, and when he opened the door and went out, Julian had already disappeared. He walked to the rockery and saw Etha standing on it.
The servants probably received instructions, so they did not make a fuss this time, and deliberately lowered the noise of sweeping the floor so as not to delay the "crossing the hurdle". One of the two worked quietly and silently, while the other was silent and absent-minded. The whole scene was both weird and harmonious.
Aiden walked by calmly, pretending not to see anything.
That morning, Etha did not show up at the dinner table again. Graham was still there, but she looked a little depressed.
Aiden understood this very well. Etha at least got some sleep, but this young master had been up all day and two nights. He was quite stupid.
He originally wanted to finalize some details with Graham, but after dinner when he heard him say that he wanted to go back to his room for a while, he considerately asked him to rest first and went to find the owner of the manor, saying that he still had time to go around the city.
Oliver and Miles followed him habitually and asked curiously: "Why are you still going?"
Aiden said: "I want to take a look around."
Oliver said: "Okay, then we'll go too."
"No, I'll be back in a minute," Aiden narrowed his eyes, "Keep an eye on that idiot, and stop him when he wakes up. Don't let him play chess with others again. I have to talk about business."
Oliver and Miles nodded and said they would definitely do it.
Aiden entered the city with confidence and walked to the largest restaurant in the city as agreed with Julian. He saw a circle of people gathered nearby and several voices were heard from inside from time to time.
"I'll give you fifty taels!"
"Sixty taels!"
"Eighty taels!"
People gasped and were shocked when they heard it, and more and more people gathered around to watch.
Aiden squeezed in with great effort and saw a big man standing in the middle with a young boy standing next to him. A piece of grass was stuck on the boy's head, which meant that he was going to be sold.
He looked at the boy.
The boy was cute, about fifteen or sixteen years old. He looked over at the same time as he looked over there, his eyes sparkling and so beautiful.
Aiden: "......"
Shrinking bones and changing appearance, it's just like being reborn, how could it be so unscientific?
The big man was called in temporarily to sell their Jiuye. He felt that even eating a cart of cantaloupe would not be enough to calm his nerves. When he saw Aiden finally showed up, he hurriedly asked, "Sir, do you want to buy any?"
Julian also looked at him steadily, with a look of pleading in his eyes: "Sir, please buy me!"
Aiden said: "How much?"
Someone nearby immediately chimed in: "It's already been bid up to eighty taels!"
"Oh," Aiden said, "I don't have any money."
