Chapter 157: Night Substitution



"Miss Liu'er? Madam? Master?"

The male voice continued to ask.

"Are you all right? I just heard from the servants that there was some commotion here."

There were no servants at all; they had all been sent away, so there was no sound at all.

This must be the person the young lady mentioned who might come to investigate.

So the young lady asked herself to stay in the room so that she could coax it away.

But after all, it was the first night, and no one would come. This was just the worst-case scenario, the lady told her so before she left.

But the lady didn't expect that not only did the worst plan come true, but there was also an unexpected twist.

What should I do now?

Liu'er clenched her hands.

The lady only trusts her, she is the only one she can rely on, and she cannot be afraid of her.

"Nothing, who said there was any noise? Get out now." She said unhappily, "The young master and the young mistress just went to bed."

As she said this, she reached out to cover Fang Jinxiu's mouth.

The person outside didn't leave. He closed the door and knocked on it gently.

"Is the young master okay?" he said, somewhat uneasily. "The old lady told me to look after the young master. If anything goes wrong... we might as well call a doctor."

The door made a noise when he slammed it.

Liu'er couldn't help but shiver.

So much has been said. According to common sense, if the young master doesn't say anything, the young mistress will have to say something.

If no one else speaks up, this person will definitely break in.

What to do?

Can she imitate the lady's voice? I've never tried it before, so I don't know if it's similar?

Liu'er's scalp suddenly felt numb and sweat broke out all over her body.

Just then her hand was grabbed and moved away.

"Get lost."

A familiar female voice said in my ear.

Liu'er looked up in disbelief, looking at Fang Jinxiu who was in her arms.

The person outside also seemed frightened and took his hand away from the door.

"Madam...my dear..." he said.

"Liu Er, open the door."

The female voice inside continued.

"Welcome this guard in."

It was a scary act to let a man enter your bedroom in the middle of the night.

Liu Er snorted.

"Well, let him see as much as he wants," she said, and walked towards the door.

The man stepped back in fear and saw the lights in the house turn on.

Cast two shadows on the paper mask on the door.

The shadow disappeared, the door opened, and Liu'er stood at the door, dressed as if she was ready for bed.

"Come on." She raised her eyebrows and looked at the man who retreated to the shadows in the yard. "Come on."

The man turned and ran away.

"Someone come."

Liu'er's voice rang out behind him, breaking the tranquility of the night sky.

"Catch a thief."

The lonely house in the dark night was stirred by the girl's shrill cry. The lights were lit one by one.

The noisy footsteps and blazing torches finally gathered in the backyard.

Under the eaves of the young mistress and the young master, Liu'er was wrapped in a cloak with an angry look on her face.

"Miss Liu'er, we've looked everywhere. No one is here." The leader of the guards stepped forward and said.

"Am I blind? Am I hysterical?" Liu'er shouted angrily, "That man broke open the door of the young mistress's room."

The guards looked embarrassed.

"They probably ran away. They all dispersed."

A woman's soft voice came from inside the house.

Liu'er glared at the guards hatefully.

"You bastards can't even guard such a small house. You are not allowed to sleep tonight," she shouted.

The guard leader blushed and bowed his head in response.

"Get out of here." Liu'er shouted angrily, turned around and pushed the door open to enter the house.

The guard leader blushed and waved at the guards. They left in a tumult, but the house was no longer shrouded in darkness. Instead, it was brightly lit. It was obvious that someone was constantly patrolling.

The man standing on a big tree outside the house withdrew his gaze, jumped off the tree and ran quickly into the night.

After the fourth watch drum sounded, there was a gentle knock on the door of the room of the shopkeeper Song.

After a moment, a pretty girl leaned out.

"Tell the old lady that everything is fine over there." The person in front of the door whispered.

The girl went back and closed the door without saying a word.

The people at the door heard the sweet voice of a maid, followed by the low laughter of the shopkeeper Song, and then the coquettish sound. It was obvious that the shopkeeper Song was awakened by a sweet dream in the middle of the night and wanted to do something sexy.

It is not without effect that Mr. Song has cultivated his character. It is really enviable that he is still as strong as ever at such an old age.

I have to ask him for a solution sometime.

The visitor turned around and left with a silly smile, not daring to listen any further.

After the fifth watch drum sounded, she heard the outside gradually returning to silence and no one approached this place again. Only then did Liu'er let out a breath, loosened her hand, and moved her stiff body into the inner room.

The night lights had been turned off long ago, the dark darkness had faded, and the hanging curtains could be seen in the hazy room.

Liu'er stopped and looked at the tent for a moment before walking forward and opening it.

Fang Jinxiu lay on the bed, resting her head on her hands and looking at her with squinting eyes.

Neither of them spoke. Liu'er bit her lower lip, took a step back, knelt down and kowtowed to her.

Fang Jinxiu rolled her eyes and turned inward with a bit of impatience.

Liu'er didn't care about Fang Jinxiu's ignorance and knelt on the ground, stroking her chest.

Anyway, the task that the young lady had asked me to do was finally accomplished safely.

I didn't expect Fang Jinxiu to come over, and I couldn't imagine what would happen if Fang Jinxiu didn't come.

The little girl sat on the ground, feeling that what happened today was beyond her imagination, so she simply stopped thinking about it.

She stopped thinking and became dazed. However, the more Fang Jinxiu thought about it, the angrier she became. She didn't know where the anger came from, so she simply turned over and sat up.

"Where did she go?" she asked in a muffled voice.

Liu'er glanced at her.

"I don't know either," she said.

According to her original habit, Miss Liu'er was too lazy to explain further, but thinking of Fang Jinxiu's help just now, she curled her lips.

"I really don't know. The young lady only told me that she and the young master were going to move to another place to keep it secret, and asked me to stay here and guard the house to prevent it from being discovered tonight." She continued in a low voice, and after thinking about it, she couldn't help but say with a bit of displeasure, "I will do whatever the young lady asks me to do, and she won't ask so many questions or care so much."

What kind of behavior is it for you to sneak up and follow me like this?

Fang Jinxiu suppressed her temper towards the girl and analyzed the meaning of the words.

First of all, it is for confidentiality, but I don’t know what the secret is.

Also, to prevent being discovered tonight.

"Did she say the word 'tonight'?" Fang Jinxiu asked again.

Liuer nodded.

"Yes," she said.

"What about after tonight?" Fang Jinxiu asked.

Liu'er shrugged and spread her arms.

"Then I don't know," she said.

What do you know, you dead girl? The way you are doing, you won’t even know how you will die in the future.

Fang Jinxiu gritted her teeth, pulled down the curtain and lay back on the bed.

The night in the room faded away again, and there was a hazy green light in the tent.

Jun Zhenzhen, where are you going?

Miss Jun lifted the car curtain and looked at the east which was about to turn white.

"Have we left Yangcheng?" she asked.

Lei Zhonglian, who was hurrying to catch the car, turned around.

"It's out." He said, with a complicated expression on his face. He endured it again and again and finally asked, "Madam, where are we going?"

Yesterday he sent Miss Jun and Master to the farm and went back directly, thinking that his mission was over. However, he was sent out to deliver goods again as soon as he returned to the store.

It was already dark when we arrived at the designated place. Just when I was about to take a rest, I was called up. Then I saw Miss Jun, who should have been asleep in the manor, and the young master who was being carried by someone.

Without any explanation, he was asked to hurry up, with no specific instructions except to drive east out of Yangcheng.

He sped along like this all night long, and the escorting guards no longer followed him after he left Yangcheng.

Now it was just getting light in the east, and they were the only three people in the car on the road in the spring wilderness.

I don't know if the person in the car is a human or not. Everyone says that the young master is seriously ill. The car didn't slow down at all last night and the ride was very bumpy. How could the young master hold on?

And the most important thing is, where is their car going?

This time, Miss Jun didn't just talk to him about Xiangdong, but smiled.

"Runan," she said.
