"Although it's safe now, let's go back to the princess's mansion together."

After Wen Yu finished speaking, Jiang Qi hesitated for a moment, but still bowed and saluted, saying, "In order to prevent the princess from having such a misunderstanding, I will escort you here. Please be careful. I will take my leave first."

Having said that, he turned and left, feeling a little helpless and awkward.

Wen Yu sat back in the carriage with satisfaction. Even death would be of no use, she had to deal with Jiang Qi in this way.

She took a sip of tea and said, "Little old-fashioned, really old-fashioned. He is the king of old-fashioned. People call him Little Old-fashioned."

"Good words, good words. Next time I'll write them down and give them to Jiang Qi. He will definitely like them."

Liuchun: ...

The carriage turned around and returned to the alley in front of Yue Lingfeng's home.

As soon as Wen Yu got off the carriage, her eyes met Yue Lingfeng who had just returned.

Yue Lingfeng was unusually silent. He looked at Wen Yu and asked slowly, "Didn't the young lady leave? Why are you here?"

Wen Yu spoke the truth, very sincerely: "Because I only remembered halfway through my journey that I had forgotten you, so I came back."

Yue Lingfeng: ...

He thought Wen Yu would find an excuse to fool him, but he didn't expect her to say directly that she had forgotten him without any hesitation. This made him not know what to say for a moment.

Should I say, "It is my honor that the lady still remembered me halfway and is willing to come back to find me."

Or should I say, "It's understandable that the young lady forgot about me in a hurry. This time she came back to find me, which shows that she still cares about me."

Finally he sighed: "I'm glad the lady is not hurt."

Upon hearing that, Wen Yu turned around in front of him, her skirt flying up, looking very beautiful.

"Look, I'm fine, I'm not hurt."

Yue Lingfeng lowered his eyes and stared at the hem of her skirt, and said softly, "That's good."

Seeing that he was in a bad mood, Wen Yu took his hand and asked, "Are you unhappy because I forgot about you?"

Yue Lingfeng felt the warmth and softness in her hand, pursed his lips, stared at her fair palm, lost in thought for a moment, and suddenly asked: "Miss, will you hold the hand of anyone you meet?"

Wen Yu raised her eyebrows: "Why do you ask?"

"I saw it." Yue Lingfeng lowered his eyes and said softly, "You held his hand and left with him in the end."

Wen Yu: ...

She held Yue Lingfeng's cheek and stared into his eyes: "Is there a possibility that he wanted to hold my hand, but I shook him off in an instant."

Yue Lingfeng: ...

"He staggered when I threw him, didn't you see it?"

Yue Lingfeng was stunned for a moment, and a hint of suspicion flashed in his eyes, as if he had some doubts about what he had seen with his own eyes.

Did he see it wrong? It wasn't the lady who took the initiative to hold the hand, but the man?

But he clearly saw...

Yue Lingfeng lowered his eyes and smiled faintly: "Since Miss said so, I naturally believe it."

Seeing that he was so well behaved, Wen Yu nodded with satisfaction.

She hadn't planned to stay long, so they walked to his doorstep and left.

Yue Lingfeng looked at Wen Yu's back until she disappeared, then he opened the door and found that his good friend Cheng Enwen had come.

"Brother Cheng?"

Cheng Enwen was relieved to see him coming back: "I heard something happened on Lin'an Street, and you were selling paintings there again, so I came to see if you were okay."

Yue Lingfeng said: "I'm fine, thank you Brother Cheng for your concern."

"That's good. By the way, when I came here, I found that your tiger lantern was gone. Have you decided not to wait any longer? That's good too. In my opinion, there are many beautiful women in the world. Why should you love only one? Brother Yue, with your great talent, you can find any woman in the future."

Yue Lingfeng sat down slowly with a calm expression on his face. He poured a cup of tea and took a sip.

After Cheng Enwen finished speaking, he casually said, "I only want her."

"Even if she seems to be a little fickle..." Yue Lingfeng's voice gradually became softer as he murmured.

"What did you say? I didn't hear it clearly." Cheng Enwen was a little confused.

Yue Lingfeng turned the teacup around, drank the tea, and then said word by word: "I only want her."

"...You are such a stubborn person. Life is so long, and you have already made up your mind? Are you sure you won't meet another girl you like in the future? If she doesn't come, will you just keep waiting?"

Yue Lingfeng said: "It is enough to have one person who makes your heart beat faster in your life."

"..." Cheng Enwen sighed, "Then why did you throw away the tiger lantern?"

"It's not lost. It's returned to its owner."

Cheng Enwen:?

"Has the woman you were waiting for come to see you?"

Yue Lingfeng nodded.

Cheng Enwen's eyes widened: "Then what did I just say count? Just pretend I didn't say anything. I wish you a happy marriage, eternal love, and a happy marriage soon."

Yue Lingfeng's eyebrows lit up with joy when he heard this: "Thank you, Brother Cheng."

On the other side, Wen Yu and Liu Chun walked out of the alley, but found that the coachman who usually waited beside the carriage was gone.

I guess it's because people have urgent needs and they want to solve physical conflicts.

Liu Chun helped Wen Yu get on the carriage. As soon as he opened the curtain, an arm suddenly stretched out and grabbed Wen Yu's neck. With a twist of his arm, he turned her body over to face the outside of the carriage.

At the same time, a sharp dagger was placed on Wen Yu's neck, feeling cold.

"Don't move! Don't make a sound! Otherwise I will kill her!" A deep male voice shouted quickly outside the carriage.

Liu Chun kept lifting the curtain, frozen in place, not daring to move at all, for fear that he would really hurt Wen Yu, and swallowed the scream from his mouth.

Wen Yu blinked. It was less than a second, right?

She was held hostage by criminals? What had she just experienced?

Wen Yu wanted to look down at the weapon on her neck, but it tightened even more: "Don't do anything tricky!"

Then he ordered Liuchun, "Drive the carriage and find an inn. Don't play tricks, or she will lose her life!"

Liuchun glanced at Wen Yu, gritted his teeth, and had to do as he was told.

"Okay... don't hurt my lady..."

At this moment, regret filled Liuchun's heart. Why didn't she be alert and check whether the carriage was safe when the coachman was not there?

Looking at the villain's attire and his closed eyes as if he were blind, isn't she the blind girl that Lord Temple mentioned?

Judging from the voice, it turned out to be a man dressed as a woman!

Liuchun drove the carriage, his heart feeling like it was on fire.

In contrast, Wen Yu, who was held hostage, was much calmer.

She stretched out her finger and poked the arm that was stuck on her neck. "Can you loosen it a little? I don't know martial arts, there's no need to be so tight."

"Shut up!" The blind girl tightened her grip.

Wen Yu: ...

"If you had used a little more strength, without even using the dagger, I would have been strangled to death, and it would have been a very ugly death."

The blind girl was silent for a moment and then relaxed a little.

At this time, Wen Yu smelled a strong smell of rust. She raised her eyebrows and guessed what it was.

Although she couldn't see the man's face because her back was turned away, she was basically certain that this man was the culprit who caused the chaos on Lin'an Street.

The blind girl.

Oh, no, blind man.
