After Xie Yanyu settled his two younger sisters, he returned to the capital overnight while it was still early.
Before leaving, he looked at his younger sister for a long time, hesitant to speak, and finally shook his head and said helplessly: "Brother, I believe that you know how to act properly, so I won't say much about you."
Xie Wan Ning understood what he meant and nodded calmly: "Don't worry, brother. I will definitely not do anything wrong to him."
But she was secretly complaining in her heart. She was just worried that she couldn't find anyone, and now he came to her door...
"..." Xie Yanyu looked at her speechlessly.
I've never seen a girl say such things.
The brother left with the mentality of an old father, very worried, and no one on this farm could take care of her anymore.
That night, Xie Wan Ning tossed and turned in joy and couldn't sleep.
I just ran outside the yard to look at the moon.
The moonlight in midsummer is so bright that even the sparkling surface of the lake can be seen clearly.
She looked at the manor across the wall and suddenly wondered if that person was asleep at this moment.
They were so close, it didn't make sense that she was so excited that she couldn't sleep, but that person was not affected at all.
Thinking of this, she trotted back to the house and took out a jade flute from her dressing table.
The soothing sound of the flute sounded under the bright moonlight, and someone who was watching the moonlight on the other side of the wall was startled.
Xie Wan Ning played the piano with her eyes closed. Suddenly, the tip of her ear moved and a melodious and familiar sound of the piano came in.
The sound of the piano was gentle, soothing and very familiar. During the days when she couldn't see, she relied on it to calm her anxiety.
If he had played a piece in front of her earlier, how could she have recognized him only now.
Xie Wan Ning was quite knowledgeable about music, so she could naturally tell that he had extraordinary piano skills, but he was willing to be led by her flute playing.
When the flute sounds slow, the piano sounds slow as well; when the flute sounds clear and passionate, the piano sounds like turbulent waves.
She could actually taste the feeling of being indulged in it.
That gentle and handsome face seemed to appear before my eyes again.
When the song ended, Xie Wan Ning, holding the jade flute in her hand, was about to go back to her room to sleep with some satisfaction, when she heard a man's clear voice coming from the other side of the wall.
Pei Yuqing asked, "Is this your first time here? Can't you sleep?"
His voice was not loud, and Xie Wan Ning was some distance away from the wall. Fortunately, it was quiet at night, so she could hear vaguely. She walked a few steps to the wall and was about to reply when the other end said, "Did you bring the pills I prepared for you?"
The bottle of pills given to me at Yuxuan Teahouse was finished long ago, and he gave me another bottle later on the pretext of delivering medicinal food.
Just say it helps to sleep and relax the mind.
After Lu Ziyan broke into her boudoir at night, Xie Wan Ning was frightened and suffered from insomnia and nightmares. She woke up several times a night. She began to realize the usefulness of this pill, so she naturally brought it with her when she returned to the farm.
But when she heard this, she paused for a moment before saying without any guilt, "I came in a hurry, so I didn't bring it."
There was silence for a few moments on the other end. Xie Wan Ning waited patiently. Then she heard some noise and looked up to see a figure emerging from the top of the wall.
It was Pei Er, who had followed Pei Yuqing during the day. He handed over a jade bottle.
Xie Wan Ning raised her eyebrows, but didn't mean to reach out to take it. She knocked on the wall and couldn't help but say something: "Pei Yuqing, aren't you coming over in person? I have something to ask you."
If the two were face to face, she might be able to see the almost embarrassed look on Pei Yuqing's face at this moment.
He paused for a long time, and in front of his subordinates, he forced himself to remain calm and said, "It's late at night, it's not convenient for you and me to meet."
“Oh…” Xie Wan Ning’s tone was a little light: “Then I’ll go back to sleep.”
Pei Yuqing called her, "Bring the medicine."
Xie Wan Ning smiled and said, "It's inconvenient for you and me to meet, so is it convenient for us to give and receive in private?"
Pei Yuqing lowered her eyelashes and said nothing. He couldn't argue with her.
Pei Er, standing on the wall, was neither going up nor down. After a few moments of silence, he finally heard his master say, "Come down."
Xie Wan Ning thought he had given up, her face turned completely cold, and she turned and left.
She had not taken a few steps when a figure suddenly appeared in front of her. It was really scary in the silent night. She stepped back in fear and was grabbed by the arm and pulled back by the figure.
"You didn't call me to come over. What are you afraid of if I come over?"
Xie Wan Ning covered her chest and stared at the man with wide eyes: "How did you get here?"
If Lu Ziyan, with his superb martial arts, suddenly appeared in front of her, she could still accept it, but... isn't this man weak as a kitten?
Her thoughts were completely revealed on her face, and Pei Yuqing could see it clearly. He moved his lips slightly and said helplessly: "I'm not that useless."
Xie Wan Ning blinked a little embarrassedly when she was found out for looking down on others, and asked curiously: "But don't you have a heart disease? Can you practice martial arts?"
"I only practice martial arts to strengthen my body, not to train hard," Pei Yuqing looked down at her, his eyes showing no emotion under the moonlight. He explained, "My Qinggong is only okay."
Xie Wan Ning said, "Oh." So that's it.
She said that the person who was just next door suddenly ran in front of her.
Pei Yuqing asked: "Do you have anything to ask me?"
Xie Wan Ning smiled and said, "Yes, I have a lot to ask you."
But now she was not in a hurry. She looked around, pointed to the lake not far away, and said, "Let's go sit over there for a while."
The farm is not like a marquis's mansion. It has no pavilions, no rockery or flowing water, and no viewing platform, but stone benches can be seen everywhere.
The lakeside is overgrown with weeds and a few stubborn rocks.
Xie Wan Ning took a step towards that direction, but was stopped by him holding her arm.
"Don't set foot in overgrown weeds like the farm at this time of year." Seeing the puzzled expression on the little girl's face, Pei Yuqing smiled and asked, "Are you afraid of snakes?"
"..." Xie Wan Ning was silent for a moment, and subconsciously held his arm, "Are you saying there are snakes here? Will they come into the house at night?"
