Chapter 157 I'm fine now, you don't have to accompany me anymore

Late at night, Jiang Yueyao lay on the bed, her freshly washed long hair scattered on the pillow. She thought she could sleep well tonight, but for some reason, she didn't feel sleepy at all.

After suffering for a while, he simply lifted the bed curtain and got out of bed.

It was almost midnight, and thinking that everyone on Lu Sui's side should have left, she changed her clothes and walked out of the yard.

In Mingyin Hall next door, there were sheep-horn lanterns on in the corridor. She walked in and happened to meet Qingxuan coming out of the house.

Qingxuan was also seriously injured, his arm was almost cut off, and he was stabbed twice in the abdomen... Fortunately, he was lucky and woke up after being in a coma for five days.

He saw Jiang Yueyao and was about to greet her, but Jiang Yueyao quickly waved her hand.

"No, no, your arm isn't healed yet." She then asked, "Is your master asleep?"

"No, just go in, girl."

Jiang Yueyao nodded and walked into the house.

There was no one in the room, so she went into the inner room. She thought Lu Sui was still lying on the bed, but she found that there was no one on the bed.

My heart tightened and I was about to turn around to look for him, but I heard some movement coming from the bathroom.

Realizing what he was doing, Jiang Yueyao's cheeks flushed. She turned around and was about to leave when Lu Sui's low voice came out.

"Get me a dry towel."

Jiang Yueyao paused.

She was the only one in the room, and it was obvious that the other person was talking to her.

She hesitated for a moment, turned around, found a dry towel, and walked towards the bathroom.

The bathroom was separated by a screen, and a swaying figure could be vaguely seen inside.

Although they had hugged and kissed each other before, Jiang Yueyao was too shy to let her in to watch him take a bath.

So she walked to the edge of the screen, stretched out her arm, and handed the handkerchief inside.

At this moment, Lu Sui, who was standing by the bathtub and wiping himself, didn't see the towel brought in for a long time. He was about to call again, but when he turned around, he found a towel dangling in front of him.

The girl's arms were white, tender and slender, and they kept shaking.

After wandering around for a long time, but not seeing him pick up the phone, I couldn't help but say, "You answer it."

Lu Sui looked at the figure on the screen, then looked at her little hand waving the handkerchief. He quickly glanced at himself, took the handkerchief, wiped it clean in a few seconds, put on his pants, turned around and walked out.

When he went out, Jiang Yueyao had already sat down on the couch in the outer room.

Hearing the noise, she looked up at him and saw that although his upper body was still wrapped in gauze, he had changed into a pair of black pajama pants. The restlessness that had finally subsided on her face crept up again.

But she still pretended nothing happened.

"Are you okay with your injury? Why don't you ask Qingshu to help?"

"Not used to it." Lu Sui sat down opposite her.

Seeing him holding the kettle to pour water, Jiang Yueyao hurried over, took the kettle, brought the teacup, and poured him a cup of warm water.

Lu Sui looked at her, took it and drank it all in one gulp.

Jiang Yueyao poured him another cup, but Lu Sui didn't drink it and put it aside.

Then he looked up at her: "It's so late, why haven't you slept yet?"

"I can't sleep." Jiang Yueyao moved a stool over and sat next to him.

"Is the wound still painful?"

As she spoke, she reached out to touch the gauze wrapped around him, but was grabbed by Lu Sui.

She looked up at him, and he was looking at her.

Those cold eyes were deeper than before, like an ancient well in the mountains, so deep and unfathomable that it was impossible to see through their emotions.

Lu Sui didn't say anything, just stared at her.

Jiang Yueyao felt her scalp tingling when she saw him looking at her.

"you……"

As soon as she opened her mouth, the other party suddenly let go of her hand.

He looked away, looked at the window beside him, and spoke calmly.

"I'm fine now. You don't have to accompany me anymore."

Jiang Yueyao nodded: "I know, I have packed my things and will go back tomorrow."

After saying that, she added another sentence.

"I'll come to see you at noon and in the evening."

"You've been unconscious for so long, are you craving the food that Sister Lan cooks? I'll ask her to make some for you tomorrow."

"No need..." Lu Sui just started to speak when he was interrupted by her.

"Yes, yes." She took his hand and said happily, "During the days you were unconscious, the guys at Wanhelou were very worried about you. Today, when they heard that you woke up, everyone breathed a sigh of relief."

Lu Sui didn't say anything, just lowered his eyes and looked at her hand holding his big hand.

Her hands were so small, so small that they could fit into his palms and he could hold them in one hand...

Lu Sui moved his fingers, and finally pulled his hand out, then suddenly stood up and went inside.

"It's too late. Let's go back. I need to rest too."

Jiang Yueyao stood up and wanted to follow in, but the lights inside suddenly went out.

She stood there, her eyes darkening.

"What's wrong with you? Are you in a bad mood?"

Lu Sui sat by the bed.

The inner room was dark.

No one could see the expression on his face.

I could hear the anxious and aggrieved voice of the little girl.

Lu Sui closed his eyes.

His Adam's apple rolled...

When he opened his eyes again, his voice was a little lighter.

“I heard that Shen Baoqing hasn’t eaten for a few days. The old master and the old lady are extremely worried.”

"If you want, you can move over and keep her company."

"Don't worry about Wanhe Tower for now. I will send someone new to take over."

Jiang Yueyao, who was originally feeling a little aggrieved, no longer had the mind to think about anything else after hearing this.

She has been staying in the Taifu Mansion for the past ten days or so and has not even left the house.

Today I just went back to Wanhe Tower and know nothing about what's going on outside.

After hearing this, she immediately asked, "What's wrong, Qingqing?"

"General Shen has been missing in Mobei for half a month."

When Jiang Yueyao heard this, she didn't even care about Lu Sui anymore and turned around to go out.

But after walking a few steps, he turned back.

"My Lord, take good care of yourself and I will come to see you when I have time."

After saying that, he turned and left.

Lu Sui suddenly stood up.

The voice was a little urgent.

"What are you going to do?"

"I can't wait until tomorrow. I'm going to the Bai family now."

Lu Sui suddenly stopped talking.

Only after the people had gone far away did he slowly walk out of the inner room, stand in front of the window, and look at the dark night in the yard, without moving for a long time.

Until Qingshu came in.

"The young lady is packing her things and leaving, saying she is going to the Grand Tutor's Mansion. Xiaoxi is following her."

Lu Sui said, "Send someone to follow her secretly and make sure she enters the Grand Tutor's Mansion safely."

"yes."

-----

Jiang Yueyao entered the Grand Tutor's Mansion.

The guards at the door of the Grand Tutor's Mansion seemed to have received instructions from someone. When they saw her coming, they hurriedly welcomed her in.

"The Second Master specifically instructed that if you come, go directly to Yuehua Garden."

'Yuehua Garden' is the courtyard where Shen Baoqing lives.

When Jiang Yueyao led Xiaoxi in, the yard was quiet and everyone was asleep.

The maid who was on night watch was not surprised to see her coming.

He only asked, "Why are you here so late?"

"I'm worried about Qingqing. Is she asleep?"

"She's asleep." The maid led her in and lowered her voice. "Young lady, you haven't eaten or drunk anything for two days. The food you brought in was brought out untouched. How can your body bear this?"

Jiang Yueyao entered the inner room.

A night light was on in the corner.

The azure bed curtains hung lightly, and there was no movement inside.

Jiang Yueyao stepped closer and lifted the bed curtain, only to be met with a pair of tearful eyes...
