...
These past few days, the second wife has been going out frequently, and she's been hearing vague things about Su Miao, making her start to doubt whether Su Miao is really the same Su Miao...
But she dared not make this public, and only dared to tell Old Lady Shen in secret.
Grandma Shen simply said it was utter nonsense.
But the rumors got stranger and stranger, saying that the real Su Miao had a birthmark on her back.
Unable to hold back any longer, the second wife could only speak to the third wife.
The third wife didn't take it seriously either.
Su Miao naturally heard these rumors, but they didn't affect her much; she continued to eat and drink as usual.
"Miss, I heard there's a place where the fireflies are especially beautiful!" Tao'er couldn't help but exclaim.
Thinking of the scene she had witnessed last time, Su Miao took Tao'er to the place she had mentioned that very night.
At this moment, Liu Jiaojiao had already received the news.
"Remember, don't hurt her vitals, but make her suffer a bit too." She held the silver in her hand, her voice deep.
Don't worry!
After saying that, Liu Jiaojiao put on the hood of her cloak and left under the cover of night.
Because of the investigation into Liu Jiaojiao's matter, Shen Changji has not gone to see Su Miao for the past few days.
But he also heard about Su Miao.
Where is she now?
"It seems he took Tao'er to see the fireflies," said Lone Eagle.
firefly?
Shen Changji thought of how Xie Qin had taken Su Miao to see it last time, but this time she was all alone.
After thinking about it, he decided to ask for a horse and go with them.
When Su Miao arrived, she didn't realize the danger, but the person was lurking in the shadows.
Those in the shadows saw the fireworks explode in the sky and instantly drew their bows, aiming them in Su Miao's direction.
Just then, Shen Changji arrived. Seeing the glint of cold light, he immediately said, "Catch the assassin!"
As soon as he finished speaking, an arrow was aimed at Su Miao. Without hesitation, Shen Changji abandoned his horse and headed straight for Su Miao.
Upon hearing this, Su Miao turned around and was suddenly embraced tightly by Shen Changji.
Su Miao's eyes widened instantly, and the hand that touched his back was covered in a glaring patch of blood.
Seeing that Chen Changji had been shot with an arrow, Lone Eagle immediately shouted, "Capture the assassin alive!"
Shen Changji leaned on Su Miao's shoulder, forcing himself to endure the pain, and held her hand tightly.
"A long silence!"
...
When Shen Changji was taken to the Duke's mansion, he had already fainted.
As soon as the news came out, Old Mrs. Shen hurriedly brought people over.
She never imagined that her stubborn grandson would one day be hit by an arrow!
When she heard the news, she was surprised and doubted whether she had heard it correctly!
As soon as Old Madam Shen arrived, most of the people in the mansion also arrived.
Su Miao sat next to Shen Changji, her hand held by him, and no matter how she struggled, she couldn't break free.
The more she struggled, the harder she exerted herself.
Everyone's eyes immediately fell on their tightly clasped hands.
Su Miao blushed uncontrollably as she faced everyone's stares.
"Grandma... grandma!"
As she spoke, she tried to pull her hand away, but Shen Changji gripped it even tighter.
This was the first time she had been so intimate with Shen Changji in front of everyone...
This made her feel somewhat uncomfortable and quite embarrassed.
"Miao'er..."
Just then, Chen Changji called out in a low, hoarse voice, sounding somewhat hurried.
The room fell into a deathly silence, and everyone's eyes lit up even more.
Su Miao's face turned red, but she didn't know how to defend herself and wished she could disappear into the ground.
