Chapter 385: Seeking but Not Obtaining (2/5)



After Ren Yaoqi entered and paid his respects, he stood aside, lowering his head and not saying a word. In Old Lady Ren's room, besides the old lady and Yun Wenfang, there was also Ren Yaoying who served Old Lady Ren and Ren Yiyan who came to greet Yun Wenfang.

Although Yun Wenfang was talking to Old Lady Ren, his eyes kept looking at Ren Yaoqi. Ren Yaoqi's face was calm as if she was in a trance.

As they were talking, Ren Yaohua also walked in.

Old Madam Ren frowned and glanced at her: "Why are you out now?"

Ren Yaohua rarely goes out these days and basically stays in the room doing embroidery. Old Mrs. Ren didn't say anything.

Ren Yaohua glanced at Ren Yaoqi, lowered her head and said, "My granddaughter was just about to discuss needlework with my fifth sister when she heard the maid in the yard say she was here with Grandmother, so she followed her."

Ren Yaoqi understood that Ren Yaohua must have heard that Yun Wenfang had come and was afraid that she would suffer, so she came to find her.

Mrs. Ren didn't pursue the matter further because there were no guests present. She simply said, "It's a rare visit from Second Young Master Yun. You've all known each other since childhood, so why don't you accompany him for a walk in the courtyard?"

Yun Wenfang was naturally happy about it, as he had originally wanted to find an opportunity to meet Ren Yaoqi.

Ren Yaoqi didn't say anything. When Ren Yiyan led them out, Old Lady Ren called out to Ren Yaoying, "Ying'er, don't go. Stay and give me a leg massage."

Ren Yaoying glanced at Yun Wenfang, then at Ren Yaoqi, with some reluctance in her eyes, but in the end she did not dare to go against Old Lady Ren's wishes, and she lowered her head and agreed obediently.

Old Madam Ren looked at Ren Yaohua again: "Didn't you say you wanted to ask about needlework? The coral embroidery in my room is the best. You can stay and ask her."

Ren Yaohua felt something was wrong when she heard it and was about to refuse, but Ren Yaoqi gave her a look, asking her to be patient. Ren Yaohua took a deep breath and finally agreed.

When Ren Yaoying saw that Ren Yaohua was also kept, she finally felt a little relieved, but her eyes still couldn't help but secretly wander between Ren Yaoqi and Yun Wenfang.

Ren Yaoqi, Ren Yiyan, and Yun Wenfang left Ronghuayuan together. Ren Yiyan exchanged a few words with Yun Wenfang along the way, but Ren Yaoqi remained silent from beginning to end, just following them at a distance.

Until Yun Wenfang turned around and said to Ren Yaoqi: "I remember there is a bamboo forest over there. Miss Ren Wu once taught me how to identify male and female bamboos."

Ren Yiyan smiled and said, "Why don't we go take a look at the bamboo forest over there? We've arranged for someone to take care of it over the past few years, and the bamboo there is growing even better."

Yun Wenfang naturally had no objection, but just as the three of them reached the edge of the bamboo forest, someone hurried over and told Ren Yiyan that the master had something urgent to discuss with him and was waiting for him in the outer courtyard. He asked him to hurry over.

Ren Yiyan couldn't help but frown as he glanced at Ren Yaoqi. He naturally sensed something was amiss. He couldn't help but hesitate. It was just that the person who came was pressing him, saying that the eldest master had requested that the young master come over. The Ren family had been in turmoil for a while, and Ren Yiyan was often summoned by his father for briefings. But with Yunwen still there, he couldn't just leave and leave Ren Yaoqi alone to deal with the matter.

Yun Wenfang said, "Young Master, if you have something to do, go ahead. I've lived in the Ren family for a while and I'm very familiar with it. Besides, Miss Ren Wu is here."

Ren Yiyan looked at Ren Yaoqi and could only say, "Then I'll be back soon."

Ren Yaoqi didn't want to embarrass Ren Yiyan, so he nodded.

After Ren Yiyan left, he was still a little worried, and secretly ordered his followers to go to Qingfengyuan to find Ren Yiju to accompany Yun Wenfang.

After Ren Yiyan left, Yun Wenfang's gaze remained on Ren Yaoqi.

Seeing that he didn't say anything, Ren Yaoqi asked, "Second Young Master Yun, are you just here to visit the patient today?"

Yun Wenfang smiled upon hearing this. He walked closer and stopped two steps away from Ren Yaoqi. This distance was neither too far nor too close. Not so far that Yun Wenfang couldn't clearly see Ren Yaoqi's subtle expression, nor so close that Ren Yaoqi would run away.
