Rong Qingqing's heart skipped a beat, fearing he might say something embarrassing, and she quickly interrupted him, "My lord, you are in danger of bloodshed soon!"
Xie Jingrun's expression froze. He released his grip and sneered, "Rong Qingqing, do you want me to build you a temple?"
"Huh?" Rong Qingqing was completely confused.
"I'll send you to become a nun," Xie Jingrun said slowly, enunciating each word clearly.
Rong Qingqing: "..."
Seeing her stunned expression, Xie Jingrun's lips curled into a smile, and his anger dissipated.
Coming to her senses, Rong Qingqing said solemnly, "It's true, I'm not making this up. You really will have a bloody disaster coming your way soon!"
Xie Jingrun's handsome face darkened. Suddenly, he grabbed her collar, leaped up, and placed her on a tree in the courtyard.
Before Rong Qingqing could react, he landed back on the ground.
Without support, Rong Qingqing swayed, breaking out in a cold sweat.
"Xie Jingrun, are you crazy?" She looked at the height of about five meters above the ground, her face turned pale, and she quickly and carefully moved inward, then hugged the tree trunk tightly.
Xie Jingrun stood under the tree, giving her a leisurely look. "I'll bring you down when you're a bit more clear-headed. Of course, that's assuming you don't fall in the meantime." With that, he turned and went inside.
Rong Qingqing: "..."
Xie Jingrun, that scoundrel, is truly a terrible person.
She regretted not bringing Ah Qi with her.
"Um, Captain Changlin, could you please take me down? If your lightness skill isn't up to par, you could at least find me a ladder." She suppressed her anger towards Xie Jingrun and turned to Changlin, who was using her as a background figure, pleading earnestly.
Changlin coughed lightly, no longer able to play dumb, and said with difficulty, "Madam, I really want to bring you down, but without the master's orders, I dare not act on my own." His voice trailed off towards the end.
In fact, he also felt that it was really unfair of his master to treat a young girl like that.
But there was nothing he could do to help.
Upon hearing this, Rong Qingqing fell silent.
Damn it!
"Miss, I'm here to save you!" At this moment, Xiao Tao ran to the bottom of the tree and shouted loudly, "Don't worry, I'll go find a ladder right away."
Rong Qingqing felt a warmth in her heart. In times of crisis, it's always your own people who are reliable.
"I'm not in a hurry, take your time," she called out to Xiao Tao.
Xiao Tao immediately ran out.
Before long, Xiao Tao led her people in.
When Rong Qingqing saw the wooden ladder they were carrying, her hopes were dashed.
She was at least five meters above the ground, but Xiao Tao found a ladder that was only about three meters long...
Rong Qingqing was speechless.
After Xiao Tao had the wooden ladder propped against the tree trunk, she discovered that it was still quite a distance from where her mistress was. She immediately looked distressed and said, "Miss, this is the longest ladder in the villa."
Rong Qingqing couldn't bear to discourage her, so she said, "It's alright, something is better than nothing. You guys hold the ladder down here, I'll come down right now."
Rather than passively waiting for Xie Jingrun to rescue her while she was stuck in the tree trunk, she decided to climb down herself.
That stinky guy is probably already asleep inside.
She estimated the distance between her standing position and the wooden ladder, gritted her teeth, and decided that she had to rely on herself.
Thinking it over, she leaned against the tree trunk, lifted her skirt, tucked it into her belt, and then hugged the tree trunk, slowly sliding down.
Seeing this, Xiao Tao's heart jumped, and she and the other two servants held the ladder tightly.
