Chapter 161: Fish on the Cutting Board
Yuan Siyin stood behind him, watching with a look of satisfaction on her face.
Jin Cancan is a little coward, but she still has a deep-seated obsession with becoming rich and powerful. She thinks highly of Jin Cancan and also has some expectations for Qingfeng Village.
She wanted to see a different Qingfeng Village, a Qingfeng Village that could change her fate.
This can at least give you some confidence.
Yuan Siyin left after everyone had gone to bed for the night.
As the lights went out one by one, sleepiness crept into the quilt, weaving the most intoxicating tranquility of the night.
It's a strange feeling; you're the only one awake outside the dream, yet you feel no loneliness.
The moonlit night was still, the night dew was light and fluffy, and I didn't know how deep the water was under my feet, but I walked with a sense of peace.
The honeysuckle stretched out its branches and leaves, rustling in the gentle breeze.
Yuan Siyin stopped in front of the thin rope.
The river below roared swiftly, and on the opposite bank, a lamp shone brightly, silently radiating a warm glow. The pale moonlight made the person holding the lamp stand tall and elegant, breathtakingly beautiful, as if the moon itself were a unique and exquisite beauty, now captured in her eyes.
It turns out I wasn't awake alone.
Yuan Siyin chuckled silently.
"You dog, didn't you say you were afraid of heights? You're walking just fine, aren't you?"
She abruptly broke the silence with her words.
Yu Shiyan smiled slightly: "Not as good as the Second Master, who is still out for a stroll so late with his baggage."
Yuan Siyin choked back a sob: "How did you know I was leaving?"
"You said that."
"When did you say that?"
"It's written on their faces and spoken in their eyes."
Yu Shiyan gripped the handle with his well-defined knuckles, his whole being exuding a chilling aura, while a subtle smile flickered in his eyes.
"come over."
Yuan Siyin shrank her neck slightly: "You go first, I'll cover the rear."
She doesn't want to go with him; whoever goes with him is a dog.
"Aren't you afraid I'll get angry now?" Yu Shiyan raised an eyebrow slightly.
Yuan Siyin was speechless for a moment.
You're making me lose face.
In the end, Yuan Siyin compromised.
It wasn't because I was afraid of him; it was just that I was going that way.
When she saw the carriage parked steadily at the foot of the mountain, Yuan Siyin's lips twitched: "I think you need to give me an explanation."
"Coincidence, accident."
Yu Shiyan replied, mimicking her tone.
"You go first, I still need to get Ta Xue."
Fortunately, Fatty Wang had tied Ta Xue to a farmer's house at the foot of the mountain, which now gave her a reason to escape.
"I already had someone take it away for you yesterday."
Yu Shiyan walked to the carriage, reached out to lift the curtain for her, and gestured for her to enter.
Yuan Siyin: "..."
She's no longer the fish on the chopping block.
It's practically the perfect chopping board!
Forget about running, it's difficult to even turn over.
She had no choice but to get into the carriage, having been led by the nose.
The carriage wasn't large, but it was covered with a thick layer of soft cushions, and there was a small table on the side with two small and delicate snacks on it.
"You've been traveling all night, take a rest."
Yu Shiyan poured a cup of tea and pushed it in front of her. He lightly pressed a mechanism with his fingertips, took out a medical book from a hidden compartment, and casually began to read it.
Yuan Siyin nodded, took the celadon porcelain, and took a sip.
The trees outside rushed past, and the carriage was quiet, with only the sound of each other's breathing.
This atmosphere made people feel inexplicably nervous, yet they didn't know what to do.
A moment later, Yu Shiyan put down his medical book, glanced at her, and asked, "Tired?"
Yuan Siyin's head was drooping. She was clearly so sleepy that she was pecking at rice like a chicken, but when she heard him speak, she suddenly jolted awake, tried to sit up straight, and shook her head: "Not sleepy."
Yu Shiyan's eyes flickered slightly, but he didn't say anything and just continued reading.
