It was rare to hear Cheng Ying speak so highly of someone. Yu Jiao seemed to be lost in thought. She was still confused about her original life experience and didn't understand why everyone kept it from her.
Although Yu Jiao was curious about her own life experience, she firmly believed that curiosity killed the cat, so she would not inquire too much about it.
"So you think you can fool me with just this excuse?" Cheng Ying looked at Yu Jiao with a half-smile and reminded her, "Liu Yuning, I have a brain on my neck!"
Yu Jiao, who had just relaxed a little, didn't expect Cheng Ying to strike back again. She pursed her lips, suggesting that she should stay calm. Seeing that Cheng Ying didn't seem angry, she said calmly: "If people are afraid of certain memories, they can deceive themselves and pretend that nothing happened. About you..." Yu Jiao shook her head and said, "I really don't remember much. In my memory, the one who taught me medicine was an unkempt old man with a white beard. He always spoke kindly and was very patient when teaching me. Although I would be spanked when I couldn't recite the medical books, my master would hold me in his arms and buy me sweet candied haws..."
Cheng Ying's brows slowly raised. This phenomenon does exist in psychology. People will unconsciously whitewash some unpleasant memories and beautify them in their minds. What Liu Yuning said is not impossible. When he taught the little girl medical skills, he was quite impatient and very strict. The little girl was very afraid of him. When she saw him, it was like seeing a ghost in broad daylight. He had nothing to do with the white-bearded old man in her mind.
only……
"I don't believe it." Cheng Ying looked at Yu Jiao with her phoenix eyes. "There is no wall that is impenetrable in this world. I will find out what you are hiding from me one day." His intuition told him that he had to find out what Liu Yuning was hiding from him.
Yu Jiao was quite helpless, "You are in charge of the Imperial Household Department and the Eastern Depot, and you are busy with all kinds of affairs. You don't have to worry about me."
Cheng Ying smiled silently and didn't press her any further.
Yu Jiao leaned against the inner wall of the carriage and slowly exhaled. She should not have lied in the beginning, but who could have thought that her body had such a deep connection with Cheng Ying and that she had learned medical skills from Cheng Ying since she was a child.
Yu Jiao made up her mind that no matter how Cheng Ying asked, she would not reveal the fact that she had traveled through time and space.
The carriage finally came to a stop after a long time, and the driver said outside, "Sir, we have arrived at Liu Cifu's residence."
Yu Jiao immediately stood up in a gentle voice, lifted the curtain, and was about to get off the carriage.
Cheng Ying did not stop her, but whispered, "Go back and have a good sleep. If anyone asks you about your visit to the palace tonight, just tell them that I called you to the Imperial Household Department. You don't have to worry about the Xue family. If Xue Rong asks you to hold me responsible, just blame me."
Yu Jiao paused as she got out of the car. It was a dark night, but the breeze was gentle and warm.
"Got it." Yu Jiao got off the carriage, her voice much gentler than usual, "Please take me back. Thank you for tonight's matter."
Cheng Ying looked at her slender figure, with a little more smile in her eyes. She lowered the curtain and said, "You are so long-winded."
The carriage turned and headed out of Zanmao Hutong. Yu Jiao withdrew her gaze and said to Jianjia and Bailu who were waiting beside her, "Let's go back home."
After tossing and turning for half the night, Yu Jiao felt a little tired. She returned to the yard, quickly washed up, and went to bed. However, her sleep was not sound. She was woken up by Jianjia at dawn the next day.
"Girl, it's time for you to get up and dress up." Jianjia said softly.
Yu Jiao rubbed her eyes. Although she stood up, she was still a little dazed. She dreamed of her senior brother Fu Chuan.
After falling asleep last night, she had an extremely realistic dream. The dream was illogical. She dreamed that she went to her senior brother with a happy face to tell him that she was going to get married. In the dream, her senior brother had a cold expression. He held her hand and told her not to marry Yu Qizhe. He also forcefully took her to a small bamboo house on the Qinling Mountains and hid her there. Yu Qizhe couldn't find her no matter how hard he looked. She was very anxious. Later, she finally escaped down the mountain and saw Yu Qizhe. Yu Qizhe said coldly that she was not Meng Yujiao and asked Yu Jiao to return the original Meng Yujiao to him.
