A few moments later, Xi Ying and Yi Junjie were sitting in front of each other around a round table.
Both the men didn't say anything making the room eerily silent.
Both of them just continued to stare at each other.
This staring and silence continued until the door of the room opened and Li Rui stepped inside the room after making Xi Ling sleep in his room.
Both the men inside the room immediately started to behave as if everything was normal.
Xi Ying looked at his wife with a small smile on his lips as she walked in his direction and sat beside him.
His heart no longer had any grievance seeing how naturally she did it.
She might not love him. However, in her heart, he was her husband and she was very loyal to him.
Xi Ying assured himself.
Moving his eyes back to Yi Junjie, he found that the man was already looking at him. However, the gaze seemed to be probing somehow.
As if Yi Junjie were as trying to know him.
Xi Ying ignored the probing gaze and said Yi Junjie indifferently.
"Lord Yi must have some important work to come to Xi Manor twice...that too continuously."
"Lord Xi is right."
Yi Junjie said in the same indifferent manner while Li Rui silently sneaked a few glances at the two men as she sipped tea from the teacup in her hands.
Was there really some tension between them or was it her illusion? Li Rui wondered inside her heart.
She looked at Xi Ying and thought how come Xi Ying disliked Yi Junjie so much. They have not even met that many times to have such firm coldness towards each other.
Yi Junjie spoke when he didn't hear anything from Xi Ying.
"That night, Lord Xi had said that now this Lord and Yi Clan would also be with Xi Clan and Lord Xi in this fight. However, this Lord had not received any kind of information from Lord Xi in the past few days."
Yi Junjie smiled suddenly. However, the smile doesn't have any humor as he said.
"This Lord thought that perhaps Lord Xi forgot that now this Lord and Yi Clan are also there to help Lord Xi …so thought of making Lord Xi remember by these visits."
Xi Ying's lips twitched as he heard whatever Yi Junjie said.
How could he not understand what Yi Junjie was trying to say!
He was indirectly implying that Xi Ying said to him that day that Yi Clan would be together with Xi Clan in this fight…it was merely words he was not thinking of acting upon.
Saying this in front of his wife, did Yi Junjie not know how she will react?
He of course knew.
Sure enough when Xi Ying turned his head to look at Li Rui, he found her looking at himself and he instantly felt guilty inside his heart.
He would not be lying if he said that he really had thought of doing so. However, when had he thought Yi Junjie would still shamelessly come to Xi Manor counterattack him like this!
He was surely a very clever man. However, it also showed that he could do anything to help Li Rui. He could sacrifice his self-respect and come here to ask him this question.
And this made Xi Ying want more to keep Li Rui away from Yi Junjie.
However, for now, this does not seem to be possible at all.
Inside his heart, he assured himself that Li Rui not knowing about Yi Junjie was enough for him and he should not feel so insecure. However, it was always easier said than done.
With a sigh, Xi Ying opened his mouth and said to his wife
"I had gone to Li Manor today."
Li Rui looked surprised. Last night, Xi Ying had told her that they were going to go to Li Manor when her foot will get fine.
She had not expected that he will go to Li Manor today only.
"I wanted to ask something from General Li."
Li Rui was silent for a moment before she nodded her head in understanding and asked calmly.
"Were you able to find what you wanted to find out?"
Xi Ying nodded his head and whispered
"Almost there."
"What does Lord Xi wants to find out?"
Yi Junjie asked Xi Ying with a confused face. He then looked at Li Rui without giving him any chance and said
"Rui, is something the matter? Maybe I can help."
Li Rui looked at Yi Junjie and then at Xi Ying. She also didn't know what Xi Ying wanted to find out so she could only look at him with questioning eyes.
Xi Ying's lips were pressed in a thin line and he didn't say anything for a long time.
It was then Li Rui suddenly stood up from her seat and said to Xi Ying calmly
"Ying, I know that you are worried about my safety. Don't worry, I won't hear this secret. I will leave. You can talk to Elder Brother about this matter."
Xi Ying watched silently as Li Rui left the room alone and then closed the door behind her.
It was perhaps the first time, she understood him without him even saying anything. There was a little bit of joy inside his heart as he wondered how he got such a sensible woman as his wife.
Xi Ying focuses his attention back on Yi Junjie.
"Lord Yi, whatever this Lord is going to tell you today, you can't tell this to anyone…not even to Rui because it can put her life in danger."
Yi Junjie's eyes flickered and his fists were tightly clenched. What kind of secret could harm Rui?
He now wanted to know more about this secret and Xi Ying didn't let him wait for too long.
The next moment, he started and for almost half a shichen, Yi Junjie and Xi Ying never came out of that room.
It was a long discussion.
