Who is this woman he's talking about in Chapter 59?
"...!"
Shang Ruyi felt her heart skip a beat.
She subconsciously turned her head and saw, through a corner of the lifted curtain, a pair of thin lips with beautiful lines and clear contours, a mysterious smile playing on their lips, before disappearing instantly behind the falling curtain.
Shang Ruyi said, "You—"
Before she could finish speaking, the carriage suddenly sped forward. Shang Ruyi couldn't catch up, but she heard a laughing voice coming from inside the swaying curtain: "Madam Ruyi, see you again in the Eastern Capital!"
After he finished speaking, the carriage had already driven far away.
Shang Ruyi stood there, staring at the carriage disappearing into the distance. She was still somewhat dazed and her chest was pounding.
What is Yang Suiyi saying?!
He wanted to make an enemy of Yuwen Ye.
For a woman?
Does he mean—
Just thinking about it, Shang Ruyi immediately shook her head hard, as if trying to shake that unpleasant thought out of her mind—this Yang Suiyi was really too strange, full of strange ideas and behaving strangely, making him difficult for ordinary people to understand.
It seems that his words shouldn't be taken seriously.
Thinking this, Shang Ruyi calmed her heartbeat and turned to walk back, but with each step she took, her doubts deepened.
What if he's telling the truth?
But who would make an enemy of Yuwen Ye for the sake of a woman!
Could the woman he's talking about be himself?
If it's not myself, then who is it?
These countless doubts were like a tangled mess of hemp threads, leaving Shang Ruyi completely bewildered. When she returned to the fruit and snack shop, Tu She'er was waiting for her inside. Shang Ruyi hurriedly paid the money and left the shop with Tu She'er.
Once on the carriage, Tushe'er put down a few boxes and looked back; Shang Ruyi's face was still somewhat pale.
She asked in a low voice, "Miss, what happened?"
"..."
"Who did you just go to see? Why do you look so pale?"
"..."
Shang Ruyi hesitated for a long time before saying, "I ran into the same person who stopped our carriage in Luoyang before and asked me for good luck."
"ah?"
Tushe'er had a deep memory of this person, especially after hearing Shang Ruyi say that the carriage he rode in was of a special type, at least of the level of a king or nobleman. She was very uneasy, fearing that their encounter had sown the seeds of some hidden danger. When she heard that Shang Ruyi had met him again, she hurriedly grabbed Shang Ruyi's hand and looked her up and down: "He, he didn't do anything to Miss, did he?"
Shang Ruyi was both amused and exasperated: "What could he possibly do to me in broad daylight!"
Tushe'er breathed a sigh of relief, then asked in confusion, "Then why is he looking for the young lady? Is he trying to bring good luck?"
Shang Ruyi smiled bitterly to herself, thinking to herself, "It's more like inviting bad luck."
What could he possibly say about making an enemy of Yuwen Ye over a woman? Even if he hadn't told him not to, he couldn't bring himself to say such things to Yuwen Ye. But if he didn't say them, it felt like a thorn was stuck in his heart, making him very uncomfortable.
More importantly—
He said he had cleared up the doubts for him.
For some reason, the more Shang Ruyi thought about it, the more uneasy she felt, and even had a vague sense of foreboding.
With a mix of trepidation and excitement, they finally returned to the Yuwen residence.
It was nearly noon by then.
The carriage stopped at the side gate. As soon as Shang Ruyi got off the carriage, she saw a cargo cart already parked outside the gate, with several workers loading things onto it. Aunt Hui and two servants stood at the door, giving instructions to two people carrying luggage who seemed to be about to embark on a long journey.
