Chapter 316: Just Wait Patiently
Having said that, the crisis that Xie Wanzhou would have to endure if he exposed his identity in advance was completely unimaginable.
Shen Ningyuan's throat was blocked, she had a thousand words to say but didn't know how to express them.
The corners of her eyes were slightly red, and she looked at Xie Wanzhou stubbornly.
Xie Wanzhou reached out and held her in his arms, resting his chin on the top of her head.
"Silly girl, believe me. No matter what time it is, you are not a burden to me, but someone who will walk side by side with me. Believe me, and I believe you, okay?"
Shen Ningyuan hummed in a depressed tone.
My heart is filled with emotion.
Apart from her parents and brother, Xie Wanzhou was the first person who treated her so wholeheartedly.
When she came to her senses again, she didn't know when Xie Wanzhou had left quietly.
If the candles had not been lit and a lingering wisp of his cool fragrance was still in the air, Shen Ningyuan would really have thought that everything was just a fantasy in her dream.
He stood up slowly and walked towards the window.
I opened the window and a cold wind blew towards me.
Shen Ningyuan shuddered uncontrollably.
But he stared out the window stubbornly, his eyes unwilling to move away for a long time.
Ling Qing, who had been hiding in the dark, scratched the back of his head in confusion, feeling even more hesitant.
Secretly criticizing.
What is this Miss Shen doing here blowing in the cold wind so late at night instead of sleeping?
Are you admiring the moon?
Thinking of this, Ling Qing looked up at the sky.
Coincidentally, at this moment, a waning moon quietly disappeared into the thick clouds and disappeared.
Ling Qing sighed softly and finally shook his head.
I totally don't understand why Miss Shen would have to endure the cold autumn wind like him?
But why bother worrying about things you can't figure out?
Maybe Shen Ningyuan just has a unique hobby.
After all, what these noble ladies from aristocratic families like is probably different from that of ordinary people.
Fortunately, Shen Ningyuan didn't know what he was thinking.
If you knew, it would probably be really ridiculous.
It's not right to laugh, nor is it right to be angry.
Shen Ningyuan felt the cold wind, adjusted her mentality, and then closed the window with a snap.
He turned back to the couch and tried to fall asleep.
I thought that with so many things happening today, I would definitely not be able to sleep.
But he never expected that not long after lying on the couch, he went to meet Zhou Gong.
For the next three days, Shen Ningyuan stayed in the mansion obediently.
Just like usual.
It’s time to eat, eat; it’s time to rest, rest; it’s time to practice calligraphy; it’s time to appreciate flowers.
The whole person looks like nothing happened.
It gives people a very leisurely and comfortable feeling.
But in fact, only she herself knows how much pain she is in.
Yi Ge was not around, and there was no one to talk to.
Lan Yin was in the mansion, but Shen Ningyuan had a grudge against her because of what she said before.
It is impossible to restore the previous close relationship between master and servant in a short period of time.
After all, the crack in my heart always exists.
Even though Ji Yunchuan has turned into charcoal now, Shen Ningyuan still feels a little unhappy.
Lan Yin could clearly blame her and protect Ji Yunchuan.
Whenever he thought of this scene, Shen Ningyuan felt an indescribable anger in his heart.
It was precisely because of this that even though Yi Ge was not at home, Chen Ningyuan did not let Lan Yin come to serve him.
Moreover, during these three days, not a single word of news from the outside world reached the mansion.
It is unknown whether the situation in the mansion has spread outside.
I guess so.
The guards surrounding outside are not vegetarians.
It's not that simple. She is trapped in the mansion and her every move must be monitored secretly.
Just wait for her to make trouble in her busyness, and then settle accounts with her together.
It was naturally impossible for Shen Ningyuan to do such stupid things at this critical juncture.
So I just stayed in the yard obediently, not going anywhere and not doing anything else.
Time flies and another day passes.
Shen Ningyuan could no longer sit still, and became more and more anxious.
According to what Xie Wanzhou had instructed before, all you need to do is wait patiently for five days and there will be news.
But now it's already the fourth day, and there is still no movement.
Shen Ningyuan was so anxious that she paced around the room, like an ant on a hot pan.
Ling Qing, who was hiding in the dark, was also infected by her anxious mood.
I even thought about waiting until nightfall, quietly leaving An Ning Marquis Mansion, and looking for my master?
But when this thought arose in my mind, I suddenly remembered what my master had told me before he left.
No matter what, I must stay by Shen Ningyuan's side all the time.
If Chen Ningyuan loses even a single hair, he will be beheaded.
Ling Qing couldn't help but shudder when he thought about the torturous methods his master used when he made a mistake.
He shook his head vigorously to get rid of all the messy thoughts in his mind.
Can’t think about it, can’t think about it at all.
Ling Qing narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at the anxious Shen Ningyuan.
After thinking it over again and again, I decided to meet secretly.
He looked around vigilantly to make sure there was no one watching him.
Only then did Ling Qing sneak into the house quietly.
But when he was about to speak, he saw Shen Ningyuan suddenly turned his head, and was instantly startled when he saw the person who appeared out of thin air.
Two of the three souls were frightened away.
Subconsciously I wanted to scream.
But when the scream was about to come out, Shen Ningyuan suddenly realized that the person in front of him was the guard beside Xie Wanzhou.
The movements of his hands were faster than his brain's reaction, and he raised his hands to cover his mouth tightly.
The scream was thus led back into the stomach.
Ling Qing heaved a sigh of relief.
He lowered his head, walked up to her respectfully, bowed, and spoke.
“Miss Shen, the master told us before he left not to act rashly and to wait for his news.”
Shen Ningyuan blinked and carefully looked at the expression on his face. Seeing that he did not show any signs of lying, she nodded slowly.
He leaned back in his chair somewhat disappointedly, looking resentful.
"I know this. He has reminded me several times, but several days have passed and there is still no news. I am so worried..."
Ling Qing listened to her mumbling, but there was no sign of impatience on his face.
Instead, he would agree with her from time to time.
After Shen Ningyuan complained for a while, her bad mood was finally relieved.
He smiled awkwardly and explained with a slightly embarrassed look.
"I'm sorry to have embarrassed you. I was really worried that something might have happened outside, so I..."
He stopped talking halfway through.
Shen Ningyuan's face turned pale and blue.
I just scared myself.
People are most afraid of unknown things.
This is actually the case with Shen Ningyuan.
It is precisely because of ignorance that we feel timid and afraid, and then terrified.
