Zhou Jing'an heard Jiang Ling's scream and looked over to see Jiang Ling about to fall. He reacted immediately and quickly turned around and ran over.
Jiang Ling prayed silently in her heart, it’s okay to fall, as long as she doesn’t get trampled by the horse.
His body fell backwards uncontrollably, and the next second he fell into a steady embrace.
"Okay, stop yelling, I just tripped."
Jiang Ling opened her eyes and looked back, and what caught her eye was Jiang Yi's handsome yet helpless face.
She laughed dryly twice and felt relieved.
Out of the corner of his eye he caught a glimpse of a figure running towards him.
Jiang Yi also noticed it. They looked over together and saw that Zhou Jing'an had just stopped walking, with the tension still on his face.
Well... a little embarrassing.
Jiang Ling patted his brother's shoulder and coughed twice, "Brother, put me down first."
Jiang Yi was reluctant to let her go. When she was little, she loved to be held in his arms and always shouted, "Brother, hold me, brother, hold me." But now that the child has grown up, she won't let him hold her anymore.
well--
Jiang Yi cried inwardly.
"Uh...um, what's the matter, Mr. Zhou?" Jiang Ling straightened his clothes and asked.
Zhou Jing'an didn't know what to say, his body just came over before his head.
"Mr. Zhou heard Miss Jiang's voice and thought something had happened, so he rushed over." Well, the reason was far-fetched.
Before Jiang Ling could say anything, her good brother stepped forward and stood in front of Jiang Ling, raising an eyebrow and saying, "Mr. Zhou, isn't he already hiding from my Ling'er? Why did he come forward when he heard her voice?"
You kid, you must have fallen for my sister again and think that my Ling'er is perfect in every way.
Jiang Yi narrowed his eyes slightly, wishful thinking.
Zhou Jing'an was unusually at a loss for words. He pursed his lips and said, "Deputy Captain Jiang, I had some misunderstandings about Miss Jiang before, but now that the misunderstanding has been resolved, I will no longer treat Miss Jiang in this way."
Jiang Ling poked her head out from behind her brother and said, "Mr. Zhou, I remembered something. I wonder if I could have a moment to talk to you."
"What did you say? Just say it here. Is there anything I can't listen to?" Jiang Yi couldn't let him and his sister have the chance to be alone together. He had to keep an eye on his own cabbage.
Jiang Ling pursed her lips and said, "Well, it's not something I can't listen to."
She took a step forward and stood beside Jiang Yi. Seeing no one around, she spoke, "After the Liuyun Garden incident, I went back and thought about it and felt something was wrong. Yesterday, it suddenly occurred to me that even if Shen Qingru's guards and servants had martial arts skills, how could they keep poison in their mouths at all times?"
"Didn't Lord Zhao say during the autopsies a few days ago that those people died of vomiting blood because they had taken poison hidden in their mouths? I've been reading a few books on my own time, and they say that these people are called death warriors."
Jiang Ling stroked her chin and pondered, "Those people are Shen Qingru's guards. In other words," she lowered her voice, "she actually has assassins, or has the opportunity to come into contact with assassins!"
Zhou Jing'an and Jiang Yi were both stunned.
Jiang Yi was stunned because wasn't this the same thing as the notice posted by the government office in the capital? Weren't his sister and Shen Qingru both victims who were almost killed? What was going on now?
"What do you mean?" Jiang Yi said seriously, "Are you hiding something from us?"
Jiang Ling had never intended to hide it, but she was afraid that her parents would not let it go given their personalities. She did not have so many concerns about Jiang Yi, so she could tell him about it, which would also serve as a reminder for him, so that Shen Qingru would not seek revenge on her and find her brother.
"It happened suddenly. I didn't tell you because I was afraid you would worry." Jiang Ling looked at him, "But if I tell you, you must promise me not to tell my parents for the time being."
"Okay, I promise you." Jiang Yi responded.
Zhou Jing'an looked at the brother and sister, his eyes becoming somewhat complicated after a moment of stunned silence.
When he learned that day that the prisoners had committed suicide by taking poison, he immediately thought of this and secretly sent Ye Bai to investigate. However, there are no useful clues so far.
However, Jiang Ling could actually think of this. Logically speaking, even if a young lady in the boudoir felt doubtful, it would only be a doubt, and she would rarely think deeply about it.
And the novel contains content about assassins? I'm afraid it's not just a simple novel.
It seems that this matter really scared her. She had been thinking about it for so many days and even came to tell him.
Do you want him to be careful? Or do you want him to check?
But no matter what the reason was, Jiang Ling surprised him.
[Ding~ The male protagonist's favorability value increased by two points, and the current favorability value is 1.]
Jiang Ling was still arguing with her brother about why he didn't tell him the moment the incident happened when she heard the system announcement.
She was stunned for a moment, and the next second she really wanted to cry for joy.
Who understands?
Finally a positive number!
Fox jumped onto her shoulder and said excitedly, "Host! Congratulations!" Fox's eyes sparkled.
Seeing that the two were silent, Zhou Jingan said, "I have also thought about what Miss Jiang said, but it is surprising that Miss Jiang knows about the assassins."
Is this a suspicion that she is more than she seems?
Jiang Ling touched the tip of his nose and said, "I'm just bored all day and just watching for fun."
"That Shen Qingru is not simple. You should stay away from her in the future, okay?" Jiang Yi was still a little dissatisfied, and at the same time scared.
Looking at her eyes, I felt distressed and helpless: "If there is anything in the future, you must tell me the first time."
Jiang Ling nodded obediently: "Yeah, I understand, brother."
The brother and sister have a harmonious and friendly atmosphere.
Jiang Yi sighed helplessly, wondering whether he should assign her a few more secret guards to protect her.
only......
He looked up at Zhou Jing'an, who was standing there silently. How long was this guy going to sit here and listen to his brother and sister talk? Why didn't he leave?
