Ren Yaoqi ordered his men to carry Yun Qiufang back and reassured everyone, "This is the princess's white tiger. Don't be afraid. It understands human nature and won't hurt anyone."
Yun Qiufang was carried away and Yan Ningshuang was helped up.
The fear on her face had not yet dissipated, and the look she gave Ren Yaoqi revealed undisguised disgust and hatred.
She broke free from the maids' support and took a step towards Ren Yaoqi: "You..."
But when she was about to take the second step, the silly girl who had been lying obediently under the tree suddenly stood up, bent her body and growled towards them. This growl was completely different from her usual coquettish "Awoo--". It was filled with the domineering aura of a true king of the forest, and scared everyone so much that they couldn't help but take a step back.
Yan Ningshuang was so frightened that she couldn't help but retract her steps. She looked at the white tiger with a grim expression that was staring at her with hostility, as if if she dared to take another step forward, it would pounce on her and bite her throat.
Ren Yaoqi stood there without moving, nor did he turn around to comfort the silly girl. He just looked at Yan Ningshuang quietly. After a long time, he smiled and ordered in a gentle voice: "Hurry up and help Miss Yan go back to rest."
After everyone had left the garden, Ren Yaoqi walked up to Silly Girl, patted her head, and said softly, "It's said that animals have the purest hearts, so they can easily detect other people's hostility."
Silly Girl didn't understand what Ren Yaoqi was saying, but she liked being patted on the head, so she rubbed Ren Yaoqi's hand with her big head in a very flattering way, "Awoo——"
Ren Yaoqi slapped it again and said, "You sneaked out today and got into trouble. I guess your master will punish you by making you take three baths."
The silly girl, who was acting cute and coquettish, suddenly froze and looked up at Ren Yaoqi pitifully: "Awoo——"
Leshan and Leshui couldn't help laughing when they saw this.
Le Shui said, "Miss, this tiger is so smart, maybe it has become a spirit? I heard that white tigers are psychic, so it's easy for them to become spirits."
Ren Yaoqi walked out, and Silly Girl followed her listlessly.
Ren Yaoqi ordered Pingguo, "Go find Aunt Duan and ask her to find someone to bring Silly Girl back."
She originally thought that today's farce was about to end, but she didn't expect that today's events were not over yet.
There had been a commotion in the garden just now. Some of the ladies who hadn't wandered far away ran back out of curiosity, while others, more cautious in nature, sent their maids or servants to see what was going on.
When Ren Yaoqi brought Silly Girl out of the garden, they heard screams one after another.
Ren Yaoqi sighed and turned to look at the silly girl behind him.
The silly girl stared at him with a pair of ignorant eyes: "Awoo?"
She was about to say a few words to calm the chaotic scene, but she heard an even more shrill scream from afar: "Ah - there's a thief - help!"
This scream would have scared people to death under normal circumstances, but tonight everyone had been scared because of the appearance of Silly Girl. When they heard someone shouting "There's a thief", the scene was not too chaotic. Everyone's faces were more confused.
Ren Yaoqi was startled when he heard this, and quickly said, "Don't panic, everyone go to Yunqixuan!"
If there really were thieves, these people rushing around would inevitably cause trouble. They should all retreat to Yunqixuan and close the door. They would be safe when the guards heard the noise and came.
Although this is not the inner courtyard of the hot spring villa, there are guards outside. How could a thief get in?
The young ladies who had returned to watch the excitement were all relatively young, and they all ran towards Yunqixuan. However, before Ren Yaoqi could reach the door of Yunqixuan, she saw a man in black running out from the darkness, and both of them were stunned when they met.
The man in black was wearing night clothes, with his mouth and nose covered, leaving only his eyes exposed. Ren Yaoqi was stunned when he met his gaze, and the man in black stopped and stood there motionless.
