It was not convenient to tell Zhuque about Wei Mingtang's affairs, so Lu Wan took the opportunity to create a deeply affectionate character.
She lowered her head. She had lost weight due to lack of sleep in the past few days, and her chin was so pointed that it was heartbreaking.
His tone was low, and seemed full of worry about Shen Yan.
"I want to see him. I can only feel relieved if I see with my own eyes that he is okay."
Zhuque, who usually has a cold personality, couldn't help but show a hint of surprise.
She always thought that Miss Lu was a typical noble lady in Beijing. He is so spoiled that he can't lift anything with his hands or carry anything on his shoulders. He is like a flower in a garden that will fall down when the wind blows.
But what Lu Wan said now touched her a little.
Even though she was so fragile and the road ahead was difficult, the pampered Miss Wen still made this decision resolutely.
"Suzaku, aren't you worried about Brother Ayan?" Lu Wan used her usual trick of acting like a spoiled child. She stood up and pulled Suzaku's sleeve, looking at her eagerly. "Can you help me find him? Even if I die, I'm willing to do that."
She was born to be well-behaved and delicate, and her watery eyes looked at Zhuque like that, which made it really hard for people to refuse.
After a while, Suzaku nodded: "Okay."
Lu Wan smiled with her eyes curved. She knew that Chen Yan's subordinates were just like him, hard on the outside but soft on the inside.
Suzaku helped Lu Wan escape from Wei Mingtang's surveillance and leave the residence.
Lu Wan told her, “You must protect Shen Yun well.”
Zhuque nodded firmly and added, "Miss Lu, you must protect yourself as well. If you can't find the young general, you can hide somewhere on the edge of the forest and wait for me to settle Miss Yun and then come pick you up."
It was rare to hear Zhuque speak for such a long time, Lu Wan smiled and said, "Don't worry, I will be fine, and Brother Yan will be fine too."
She waved to Suzaku, and under the cover of night, headed towards Lizhou Mountain.
The reason why Lu Wan was so confident was naturally because he had the help of the system.
Although the system does not know Shen Yan’s specific situation, it can detect his location.
The night wind was a little chilly, and Lu Wan wrapped himself in his cloak. She walked slowly towards the darkness of the forest. The light was dim, so she didn't walk fast.
But every step is firm.
Because she knew that Shen Yan was in that direction.
Passing through the dark woods, the mountain road became increasingly winding. She carefully lifted the hem of her skirt, the lantern in her hand emitting a faint light.
"Chen Yan! Brother Yan!" Lu Wan called Chen Yan's name as he walked.
The sound echoed in this deep valley, making it even more lonely. The birds were startled and flapped their wings and flew away in a large group, which scared Lu Wan.
The ground was uneven and the lantern light was too dim. Lu Wan fell again and again. Soon, the candlelight in the cage was completely extinguished.
If the system hadn't assured him that his GPS was fine, Lu Wan wouldn't have dared to go on.
She gritted her teeth and took a few steps when she heard a sound of wind brushing past her neck.
The cold weapon was placed across her delicate skin. Lu Wan was so frightened that she dared not move. The chill ran from her coccyx to the top of her head.
"Who are you?" The man's voice was extremely cold, as if he would kill her if they disagreed with him.
"I just heard you call the Major General's name," he asked in a deep voice, "How did you know the Major General was here?"
Judging from what he said, he should be Shen Yan's subordinate.
Lu Wan breathed a sigh of relief, but of course she couldn't tell him about the existence of the system. She couldn't say that Chen Yan had told her in a dream.
"I'm Lu Wan," Lu Wan calmed down and avoided the question, saying, "You should have heard that I'm your major general's fiancée, and I'm here to see him."
Unexpectedly, this person was silent for a moment, and said frankly: "I haven't heard of it."
Lu Wan:?
Does she have such a lack of presence in the general's mansion?
"Take me to find Brother Ayan, he will naturally know me."
The sword on his neck seemed to be even colder. "How do I know if you want to harm the Major General?"
"Brother," Lu Wan was speechless, "Can't you see that I'm just a rookie with zero combat power?"
"How about this," she snorted, "You just point your sword at me and lead me over. If I make the slightest movement, you can just chop me down, okay?"
The man was silent, as if thinking. After a moment, he asked, "Are you really the Major General's fiancée?"
Lu Wan thought he was really stubborn and said unhappily, "Then it's yours?"
"Don't talk nonsense." For the first time, Lu Wan heard a hint of shame and anger in that cold voice.
Only then did she notice that the owner of the voice actually sounded very young, about the same age as Shen Yan, but he deliberately disguised his murderousness and indifference so that people dared not approach him easily.
She couldn't see what he looked like, she could only vaguely sense that a dark shadow beside her moved the sword slightly away from her neck.
"Come with me." He pulled Lu Wan's arm with his other hand and led her extremely stiff body forward.
