Chapter 233: Hug! On the treetops
Yu Shengsheng didn't expect that she would have to wait until dark.
The sun was setting, the last rays of light filtering through the leaves, and the woods were darker than outside.
I'm not afraid at all. When I was in the village, I often went to the mountains to hunt and came back late.
However, she felt a little uneasy, as she felt that the person Cheng Ziheng was waiting for and the things he was going to do might be beyond her expectations.
She was alone in the small trench. Hei Bai and Cheng Su had already left the woods and were nowhere to be found.
Baobao and the Red Dragon Guard should be in the front.
A cool breeze blew and she shrank unconsciously.
Suddenly she heard some noise in front of her and she immediately became alert. It was not the sound of wind, but footsteps!
Yu Shengsheng held her breath and held the signal arrow tightly.
The footsteps are getting closer and closer, coming this way.
Yu Shengsheng's palms were covered with sweat. The footsteps were not black and white, nor did they sound like Cheng Su's. Judging from the direction, they should be from Cheng Ziheng's gang.
Footsteps climbed up the hill.
Yu Shengsheng was tense all over, feeling that as long as the person reached the top of the hill and looked down, he would be able to see her.
At this moment, Cheng Ziheng's voice rang out: "I said, no one."
He lowered his voice, with a hint of impatience and anxiety: "I have been guarding for a whole day, but I haven't seen anyone enter the forest."
It was really annoying. He had been waiting for a whole day and was tired and hungry, so he just brought some dry food with him. If he hadn't been thinking about turning over, he would have gone back long ago.
Footsteps came down the hillside, and the voice was deep and unfamiliar: "Leave a signal, what's going on?"
Cheng Ziheng whispered, "Something happened to my family, I have to find a way to save it. Is the thing you said before true or false?"
"Of course it's true, but you didn't get it."
"I will get it, I will get it tomorrow, but where is the Heavenly Master you mentioned?"
"If you can get it tomorrow, then be here at noon tomorrow and the Heavenly Master will come to see you."
"Okay, it's a deal!" Cheng Ziheng said firmly.
"But if you can't get it, and something goes wrong, you will bear all the consequences alone."
Cheng Ziheng was silent for a moment: "Okay."
"Then I'll wait for your good news tomorrow at noon."
After that, the footsteps faded away.
Yu Shengsheng breathed a sigh of relief. What did Cheng Ziheng want to take? What kind of deal was he making with this person?
besides……
As soon as the thought came to her mind, she suddenly felt a gust of wind coming from behind her. She bit her lips tightly and suppressed the urge to scream. Before she could turn around and see clearly, a red area covered her head and face.
The next moment, her body left the ground and fell into a warm embrace, then landed steadily on the tree.
Yu Shengsheng's heart was pounding and she looked up at the person who was hugging her.
Fu Qingyin.
Fu Qingyin glanced at her and motioned her to look down.
There was a man standing on a small hill, looking down.
She was looking at the place where she had just hidden.
He was a man in black, with a mask on his face. The mask was very strange and rare. A line of moon fell on the mask, like some animal.
Yu Shengsheng's hair stood on end when seeing this.
After reading it, the man in black tiptoed and left quickly.
Yu Shengsheng let out a light breath and was about to speak when Fu Qingyin pointed at her lips.
His fingers were strong, slightly cool, and had a faint scent of pine and cypress.
Yu Shengsheng's lips froze, but the tips of her ears felt hot.
At this moment, she was surprised to find that the man in black who had just left had come back!
He stood on the small hill, looked down again, and glanced around.
If the tree Fu Qingyin chose had not been tall and had dense branches and leaves, he would probably have discovered it.
After looking around and finding nothing, the man in black left.
Fu Qingyin retracted his fingers and looked down at Yu Shengsheng: "What did you want to say just now?"
"I...why is the commander here?"
"I'll do the work naturally," Fu Qingyin said calmly, "Hurry up."
Yu Shengsheng quickly grabbed his sleeve. Fu Qingyin looked at her again. She blushed and hugged his waist and back.
Only then did Fu Qingyin embrace her and bring her down.
As soon as she landed, Fu Qingyin took out a paper bag, which was still warm, and handed it to her.
Yu Shengsheng took it, opened it and saw that it was a hot meat bun. His stomach growled immediately.
She thanked him awkwardly, and couldn't say she wasn't hungry: "Have you eaten?"
What a stupid thing to say.
Fu Qingyin's lips curled up slightly: "I have eaten it. Madam Zhou's cooking skills are not bad."
"Did Nanny Zhou make this?" Yu Shengsheng was surprised. She felt that the taste was very familiar just now and thought it was an illusion.
"What else?" Fu Qingyin asked, "Do I have to go to the street to buy buns?"
Yu Shengsheng tried to imagine it, but it was indeed...imaginable.
However, she was very puzzled as to why Fu Qingyin thought of going to the small house?
"Eat quickly," Fu Qingyin interrupted her thoughts, "There is still something to do."
Yu Shengsheng leaned slightly sideways and took a big bite of the bun. The aroma was everywhere and the juice was rich and fragrant. It was so delicious!
She ate three in one go and gave the rest to Baobao.
Seeing that she had finished eating, Fu Qingyin walked forward and she hurried to follow.
After passing through the grove, I heard the sound of fighting before I reached the outside of the woods.
When he went outside, he saw that the man in black was stopped by the Red Dragon Guards and was fighting. Jin Baobao was very excited and saw the opportunity to help.
Hei Bai watched from the side with a smile, giving instructions from time to time: "Leopard, up! Down!"
Leopard immediately attacked and hit the target!
Cheng Su watched from the side, his body covered in dirt, and his servant looked even more like a clay figure.
Yu Shengsheng wondered what had happened to this master and servant.
Cheng Su was delighted to see Yu Shengsheng coming out, but when he saw Fu Qingyin again, the smile on his face froze again.
He greeted respectfully: "Greetings, Commander."
Fu Qingyin didn't even look at him: "Mr. Cheng, I have no friendship with you."
Cheng Su bowed his head and said, "I can go to Qingming Academy thanks to the commander. I will never forget your kindness. If you have any mission in the future, I will not refuse."
Yu Shengsheng was slightly surprised. It turned out that Cheng Su went to Qingming Academy with Fu Qingyin's help?
Suddenly I remembered that Hei Bai asked her if she was satisfied with the current situation of the Rongguo Mansion. It turned out that it was not only the decline of the Rongguo Mansion, but also the rise of Cheng Su.
Fu Qingyin did not deny: "Mr. Cheng is a smart man. I don't need you to do anything. Just study hard and serve the court in the future."
"yes."
Cheng Su glanced at Yu Shengsheng, nodded and left without saying anything else.
What else is there to say? He has never had any other feelings for Yu Shengsheng. Even before, he just wanted to repay his deceased mother for her kindness.
At this time, Fu Qingyin was beside her.
Even though he didn't say anything just now, as a man, he could still feel Fu Qingyin's displeasure.
Cheng Su knew very well that at this moment, it was better to leave first.
The servant walked with him to where the horses were tied and hissed, "Sir, that man was too strong. He kicked us into the ditch and almost broke my waist."
Cheng Su glanced at the smiling Hei Bai in the distance and said, "They are trying to save us. The men in black are quite skilled. If we run into them, we will just be chopped up like melons and vegetables."
"thump!"
Under the instructions of Hei Bai, Jin Baobao tripped the man in black, and the man in black fell on his back.
The Red Dragon Guard pointed his sword at his throat: "Don't move."
