Chapter 294 Young Master Si: Am I really that similar to the Imperial Advisor?
After settling Chu Yue in, Si Yelin told Chu Miao to get some rest, and then he went back to his room.
But Chu Miao couldn't fall asleep at all. After washing up, she tossed and turned in bed, unable to drift off.
She got out of bed in a huff and went out the door.
Her room was next to Si Yelin's. As soon as she pushed open her door, Si Yelin's room next door opened as well.
Si Yelin was wearing dark-colored loungewear and a camel-colored sweater, which made him look less cold and aloof than during the day and more gentle.
"Can't sleep? Want to go out for a walk?"
"Don't worry about me, I just felt stuffy and came out for some fresh air. You can go to sleep."
Si Yelin came out and closed the door: "I can't sleep either, let's take a walk together."
Chu Miao couldn't sleep either, so she simply went for a walk with him.
Just as she was about to close the door, Si Yelin said, "Wait."
Chu Miao looked at him, puzzled.
Si Yelin: "It's windy outside, put on a jacket before you go out."
"Oh."
Chu Miao pouted, finding it troublesome. Why did she need to wear a coat? She was already very resistant to the cold.
Since Si Yelin had already said that, she still went back to her room to get a piece of clothing to put on.
Everyone was already asleep, and there weren't many people in the base except for a few night watchmen who occasionally moved around. Si Yelin took Chu Miao to the rooftop, where they could enjoy a panoramic view of the entire base.
There are also two small stools where you can sit.
Si Yelin used to love coming here; it was his secret base.
Si Yelin asked Chu Miao to sit down and then took out some chocolate and milk candy from his pocket for her.
“It’s late now, you must be hungry. You can eat something to tide you over. You said before that you like these two kinds of candy the most, so I put some in my pocket for you.”
Chu Miao held the candy and smiled, "Boss Si is as thoughtful as ever."
She smiled, but her tone lowered: "I'm sorry, Boss Si, I promised you that I would take revenge with you. I broke my promise."
She had promised Si Yelin that she would help him get revenge, but she was about to leave and there was no time to spare.
The Grand Preceptor is suffering in the Great Chu Kingdom, so she can't stay here with a clear conscience.
“My Miaomiao did a great job.” Si Yelin smiled. “Everyone in the base likes you. The alchemical texts and secret manuals you left behind have been a great help to them and to me as well.”
Si Yelin asked, "Have you thought it through? How are you going to tell Uncle Chu and the others when we get back?"
When this was mentioned, Chu Miao sighed again, "I haven't thought about it, I don't know how to say it."
Regardless of the circumstances, they probably can't accept it, so we can only tell the truth.
"Let's go back and see. If it doesn't work, we'll just tell the truth. Anyway, it will hurt them no matter what we say, so we might as well be honest. But my soft-tempered mother is probably going to cry her eyes out."
"Leave Uncle Chu and Aunt Wen to me. You don't need to worry. Just go and do your own thing."
"Thanks! I feel very reassured with you here!"
"Between us, there's no need for thanks." Si Yelin looked at her, paused for a moment, and then spoke, "Miaomiao, can I ask you a question?"
"Hmm?" Chu Miao tilted her head and looked at Si Yelin: "Ask away."
"Am I really that similar to that Grand Preceptor? When you and your friend first saw me, you both called out his name."
