Ning Shitang really didn't come back all night.
Shen Shuyi naturally did not suffer from insomnia. She fell asleep as soon as Ning Shitang left.
I went out early the next morning. I heard that the autumn colors of the forest at Hongye Mountain are very beautiful.
When the housekeeper saw her leaving, he quickly asked the guards to follow her, "Miss Shen, do you want to go out and play?"
Shen Shuyi stopped and said, “No, I’ll just take a walk nearby. I can do it alone without any problems.”
The housekeeper frowned, fearing that something might happen to her. If the Marshal blamed her, no one would be in good shape.
“Miss Shen, please at least tell me where you are going to play, and I will send someone to pick you up when it’s time for dinner.”
"There's Red Leaf Mountain nearby. I want to go and see the maple leaves. I'll come back when I'm tired."
"Don't follow me, I'm alone."
The housekeeper breathed a sigh of relief. Hongye Mountain is the mountain behind the manor. It is also the Wu family's mountain. It is used to entertain guests and outsiders are not allowed to enter.
There were no outsiders, no wild beasts in the mountains, the terrain was not steep, and the roads were easy to walk on. There were also many pavilions and towers built in the mountains for viewing the scenery. It was a suitable place for sightseeing, so I felt a lot more at ease.
After Chen Shuyi finished speaking, he went out and walked all the way up the mountain. The autumn colors were the most intense in the mountains. The pavilions and towers in the mountains were set against the maple leaves that were as bright as red clouds. It was as beautiful as a beautiful oil painting.
Looking at the red leaves all over the mountains, rustling in the autumn wind, Shen Shuyi's mood suddenly brightened.
The system turned into a little white cat and landed on her shoulder: Host, it will rain heavily in half an hour, why don’t you go down the mountain?
Shen Shuyi strolled under the red maple tree, "I'm not the one who should be anxious."
According to the plan, Ning Shitang would be returning to Ningzhou City soon, and she planned to capture him in the next few days...
So, this rain may be timely rain.
Ning Shitang woke up in the morning and didn't see Shen Shuyi when he was having breakfast. He thought she was still asleep.
He went to the back garden to shoot for a while, and suddenly found that dark clouds were gathering in the sky and it was about to rain.
The autumn rain brought a chill, and the wind grew stronger. He saw the housekeeper coming hurriedly.
"What's wrong?"
Uncle Wu looked nervous, "Marshal, Miss Chen hasn't returned from the maple leaves viewing in the back mountains yet, and it's going to rain heavily. I'm going to send someone to pick Miss Chen up."
Ning Shitang frowned when he heard this, "How long has she been out?"
"Miss Shen had breakfast and left early in the morning."
Ning Shitang frowned, "She went out without anyone?!"
"Miss Shen...Miss Shen said she doesn't like others following her..."
Ning Shitang didn't say anything. He immediately went to the stable, untied a horse, mounted it, and galloped straight up the mountain.
When he rode his horse up the mountain, the sky was already covered with dark clouds, and there were even purple lightning flashing across the sky. The fiery red maple leaves were blown into the air by the strong wind.
Ning Shitang galloped through the mountains at full speed and soon arrived at the best place to view the maple leaves.
At this moment, it started to rain and the raindrops fell on his face.
Ning Shitang became more and more anxious, and he couldn't help but shout Shen Shuyi's name loudly.
"Book meaning!"
"Shuyi, where are you?!"
The horse under him seemed to sense his master's anxiety and neighed.
Ning Shitang finally saw the figure in the moon-white cheongsam in the mountains, amidst the rain. She was as fresh as a fairy flower.
His chest was beating violently, and the smell of grass, rain and earth mixed around him.
Ning Shitang held his breath, rode his horse to her side, dismounted and landed in front of her.
"Book meaning!"
Chen Shuyi originally wanted to take shelter from the rain in the pavilion, but he didn't expect the rain to start falling before he had taken a few steps.
When she saw Ning Shitang, surprise flashed in her eyes, "What are you doing here?"
"Get on the horse, I'll take you back." Ning Shitang wiped the rain off his face.
Shen Shuyi still walked towards the pavilion, just a few steps away, "Do you think it's suitable to go down the mountain now that it's raining heavily?"
"I'm going to wait in the pavilion until the rain stops before I leave."
Ning Shitang followed with the horse, tied it under the pavilion pillar, and then walked to Shen Shuyi.
Chen Shuyi glanced at him indifferently, then stood in the small pavilion and watched the rain hitting the maple forest outside.
Ning Shitang felt uncomfortable. The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and rain splashed in, soaking both of their clothes.
"Shuyi, are you okay?" Ning Shitang saw that they were still some distance away from him, so he said, "Come in a little, the rain is coming in."
This pavilion is very small, and you can only avoid wind and rain by standing in the middle.
Shen Shuyi's clothes were wet, and the rain blew in at an angle. She felt cold and shrank.
"No, it's all wet anyway."
As soon as she finished speaking, Ning Shitang pulled her forward and said, "Stop making trouble."
Shen Shuyi shook off his hand, “Anyway, in your eyes, whatever I do is nonsense.”
"Then why did you come to pick me up?"
Ning Shitang was feeling pent up in anger and could smell her anger, knowing that she was still angry about what happened that night.
Could he say that he came here specially because he was worried about her?
He also wanted to pull the grumpy little girl into his arms.
But he still made the most rational decision and watched everything outside the pavilion silently.
The two stood side by side in the small pavilion, surrounded only by the sound of rain and wind ravaging the maple forest.
Chen Shuyi was only wearing a thin moon-white cheongsam today. Although she was climbing a mountain, the mountain road was very flat, so she could move freely even in the cheongsam.
The bad thing is... the cheongsam is thin and sticks tightly to the body after being wet by the rain, revealing her graceful curves.
Even...the outline in front of her body was particularly clear, and she subconsciously raised her hands and hugged them in front of her.
Now they were all trapped by this sudden autumn rain.
The increasingly cold autumn wind blew on his skin, and Shen Shuyi couldn't help but sneeze.
