The Time Traveling Anchor and Her Eight Hundred Fence-Sitters

Chapter 223 Temptation (1)

Xiao Haizhou's words scared Zhao Mianmian so much that she jumped up from the bed.

She didn't care what the audience in the live broadcast room said on the public screen. She put on her clothes in no time and stepped on her own fat-toed carp shoes.

Finally, he rushed to the outer room in a hurry and stumbled before giving Xiao Haizhou a horrible greeting:

"Greetings, hello, Master Taifu."

"Mian-Mian-Mian just ate too much and fell asleep accidentally. Please forgive me, Master Taifu..."

Seeing Zhao Mianmian like this, the audience in the live broadcast room complained on the barrage:

[Anchor, do you know what your behavior is called? It's called "there is no silver here"! ! ]

[Hahaha, I am dying of laughter. Xiao Haizhou and our anchor, one dares to speak, the other dares to believe.]

[Ah, what do you mean? Could it be that Xiao Haizhou is talking nonsense? ]

[I don’t know whether Xiao Haizhou is talking nonsense or not. I only know that you are just like the anchor, your brains are filled with water.

You don’t really think that there was a custom in ancient times to dress little girls in clothes and marry them off when they grow up, right? ? 】

[That's right, the host is only four years old. Not to mention that in ancient times, four-year-old children were still wiping snot bubbles, and they had no idea what the strict rules for men and women were.

Even if he knew, how could Xiao Haizhou, with his status, be interested in a four-year-old kid and let himself get caught up in this unclear relationship vortex? ! 】

[Um, so…]

[Yes, that’s what you think—our anchor has been tricked by Xiao Dad again!!]

Zhao Mianmian:

【? ? ? 】

The words from the audience in the live broadcast room made Zhao Mianmian stunned.

She had never thought that the man in front of her, who had the power of life and death in the court, would deceive people with such a thing. For a moment, the expression on her face was neither restrained nor relaxed.

In Xiao Haizhou's eyes, there was a weird feeling of regret and fear, guilt and relief.

Fortunately, this man had no intention of making things difficult for Zhao Mianmian.

Xiao Haizhou curled up the corners of his mouth and smiled slightly, then raised his hand and pointed to the opposite side of him. Zhao Mianmian ran over happily, climbed up onto the round stool beside the table using his hands and feet, and sat down quietly.

Xiao Haizhou did not continue the topic of "old man and young wife", nor did he pursue the matter of Zhao Mianmian pretending to sleep. Instead, he fiddled with the things on the table while chatting with Zhao Mianmian:

"It's the middle of the night, why did you offend He Shiyi again?"

Zhao Mianmian had short calves, and even when she sat on the stool, she was only a head taller than the mahogany table inlaid with white jade.

She leaned on the edge of the white jade round table and watched with her own eyes as Xiao Haizhou scooped out a spoonful of powdery substance from a satin box with a rich cloud and crane pattern and slowly put it into the pink bat peach porcelain bowl on the table.

Then he picked up the small ceramic pot at hand and poured the slightly cooled hot water into the bowl.

Xiao Haizhou came from a distinguished family. In addition to being knowledgeable, he was also well-educated.

It was just an ordinary thing like raising your hand and adding water, but when he did it, it was really pleasing to the eye.

Zhao Mianmian was originally curious about what the powder in the satin box was. When she heard these words out of the blue, her heart skipped a beat and she thought to herself that something was wrong.

Although she took the audience in the live broadcast room to stroll around the yard for most of the morning, earned four large swords, and had a good meal, Zhao Mianmian did not forget how she came to the Taifu Mansion.

If she remembered correctly, before today, she followed the He family's mother and son in a carriage and prepared to sneak out of the city.

The reason why they were in a hurry to leave the city was because Xiao Haizhou was trying to frame the He family and use the poisoning of the little emperor to wipe out Zhang Qiuhe's left and right arms! !

As a result, he failed to leave the city and was caught red-handed.

What should she say now? Should she say that she knew nothing, that she just couldn't sleep late at night and went out shopping with Qin Shuyu?

Not to mention Xiao Haizhou, even a three-year-old child wouldn't believe this!

["In the middle of the night", "For no reason", "Again", wow, it has to be my father Xiao, his words are so sharp. ]

[Hahaha, please stop being so blunt. This is a life-threatening question. Instead of sighing, you should think about how to answer for the host.]

[What can I say? Just play dumb. The host is only four years old. It's normal for him to not remember things.]

[No way, that's Xiao Haizhou, how can you fool him? ]

[So how do you answer? ]

[Um, I don’t know…]

The audience in the live broadcast room discussed for a long time without reaching a conclusion, while in reality, Xiao Haizhou raised his eyelids slightly after saying this and looked meaningfully at Zhao Mianmian, who was leaning on the table.

Zhao Mianmian was already feeling guilty, and when Xiao Haizhou suddenly stared at her, her fingers trembled, tears welled up in her eyes, and she blurted out subconsciously:

"No...I haven't offended you!"

"I just cried in front of him..."

"But you can't blame Mianmian for this. It was Fourth Brother who first said that Mianmian had no parents and was living under someone else's roof. Even if she died, no one would care for her."

"Mianmian felt wronged and wanted to cry, so she just... cried."

"Maybe Fourth Brother thought Mianmian's crying was a little too loud and got angry."

"Okay, Mianmian knows she's wrong, just cry a little quieter next time..."

Xiao Haizhou: "..."

Barrage:【……】

[Am I crazy? Why do I feel that everything the host says is right, but I also feel that something is wrong. 】

[Does it feel wrong? It's right if it's wrong! Taking things out of context, confusing the audience, and deceiving the public, I will get angry with anyone who says the anchor is not good again! ]

[Hahaha, awesome! Xiao Haizhou's original intention was to test the subject, but the host turned it into a complaint. Now that things have come to this, if Xiao Haizhou continues to ask questions, he would be a coward.]

[I don’t know whether Father Xiao is a man, but what I know is that He Shiyi is going to be in trouble again [funny]]

[Hahaha, He Shiyi: Why am I always the one who gets hurt? ]

Zhao Mianmian leaned on the table and complained a few more times. The more she talked, the more helpless Xiao Haizhou's expression became. In the end, even the defensiveness in his eyes disappeared, and turned into a smile with stars:

"Okay, your fourth brother is indeed a bit outspoken.

But this is your He family's own business, I can't interfere too much, I'll ask the kitchen to make you something delicious to calm you down. Don't take it to heart."

When Zhao Mianmian heard that there was something delicious to eat, her tears were gone in an instant, and she instantly smiled:

"Good~"

He Shiyi's topic was temporarily over, but Zhao Mianmian still didn't dare to take it lightly.

After all, this was still in Xiao Haizhou's residence, and the person sitting opposite her at this moment was the Grand Tutor who was second only to the emperor in the Tianying Dynasty.

Being able to bring her into his mansion in the middle of the night, Xiao Haizhou must have known that the He family wanted to send Qin Shuyu and the children out of the city.

He knew the He family's plan but didn't say it clearly. Instead, he tried every means to test me. What exactly does Xiao Haizhou want to do?
