Chapter 35 Chapter 35 (Revised) “Don’t even think about getting rid of me in this life…
In the eighth month of autumn, the nineteenth year of Jiande.
Shuyun, the adopted daughter of the Anlu Marquisate, has disappeared. Everyone has been searching for her for many days but to no avail.
When Marquis Anlu and his son returned home from Mulan Paddock, Shuyun had been missing for nine days.
In the hall, the servants of Hengwuyuan knelt on the ground, looking at each other with their eyes and noses, trembling with fear at the oppressive and solemn atmosphere. Even Aunt Bai knelt in the hall due to negligence.
Xiao Ye sat at the bottom, his expression normal, with no joy or anger in his eyes, watching the development of things quietly.
Marquis Anlu's face darkened. His sharp gaze swept over the lowered heads one by one, and he asked, "How did you discover they were missing?"
"Qiongzhi, you are Yun'er's personal maid, you speak."
The maidservant who was named trembled. Qiongzhi recalled the scene of that day again, trembling with fear, and said, "That day, the young lady didn't let me go with her, saying that she was going out of the house to buy something. I waited and waited in the house, but in the afternoon, the young lady didn't come back. Instead, the coachman appeared in Hengwu Garden in a panic, saying..."
"They said the girl is missing." Qiongzhi stammered, and after she finished speaking, she kowtowed in fear, her arm resting against her forehead trembling.
Marquis Anlu looked at the coachman lightly.
The driver was horrified and stammered, "The young lady went to Yunshuang Pavilion to buy rouge. I waited at the alley entrance for a long time but she didn't come out. I rashly went to Yunshuang Pavilion to check, and then I heard the waiter say that she left through the back door."
On the day Shuyun disappeared, Aunt Bai immediately sent people to look for her. The old lady had just suffered a trauma a while ago. If she knew that Shuyun was missing, her health, which had just recovered, would probably collapse again. Therefore, the fact that Shuyun was missing has been kept secret from Old Lady Cui until now.
The girl's disappearance was a serious matter. If she fell into the wrong hands, even if she was found, her reputation would be ruined. Aunt Bai dared not make a public announcement or report to the authorities. She sent guards from the mansion to search for her in various markets, but there was no news. They only knew that Shuyun had gone to Yunshuang Pavilion to collect the silver and left.
Marquis Anlu frowned, a layer of frost covered his face, his big hands rested on the armrests of the chair, he closed his eyes, and was furious.
Everyone in the hall was as silent as a cicada, and the atmosphere was like falling into an ice cellar.
Marquis Anlu slammed the table so loudly that the servants kneeling in the hall trembled in fear.
Marquis Anlu stood up, put his hands on his waist, and shouted, "Send someone to look for him immediately! The capital is so small, and they haven't found him in days. What a bunch of rubbish!"
"I'm afraid my sister is planning to run away from her marriage."
Xiao Ye, who was sitting in the armchair below, suddenly spoke, neither hurriedly nor slowly.
His stern face was half hidden in the dim candlelight, and his expression was obscure and unclear.
Marquis Anlu looked at his son who had only said this one sentence from the beginning until now.
Xiao Ye stood up, his whole body shrouded in candlelight, and said, "Sister, why did you not leave earlier or later, but only when the wedding date is approaching? Sister, you don't want to get married."
Marquis Anlu's expression was slightly serious, and he put his hands on his hips as if he was deep in thought.
Xiao Ye said, "This marriage was hastily arranged. My sister and Liang Meng have only known each other for two months, and they have already decided to spend their lives together."
He lowered his eyelids slightly and said, "The marriage is so hasty, I'm afraid even my sister herself hasn't thought it through clearly, so she just took enough money to leave."
As soon as he finished speaking, the hall fell into deathly silence, and the servants kneeling on the ground were as frightened as a mouse.
The dim candlelight flickered, illuminating the faces of the father and son.
A man stood with his hands on his hips in front of the armchair, his beard neatly trimmed and his weathered face still dignified. He had the aura of a hero with swords and spears, his temples were frosted and a few white hairs were faintly visible. Under his thick eyebrows were a pair of eyes as sharp as knives, which made him look intimidating without even being angry.
The man with one hand placed in front of his abdomen was a military general after all, with a posture as straight as a pine tree, but he was slightly inferior to the majestic figure like a mountain.
Xiao Ye lowered his eyes slightly, not entirely submissive. Light and shadow passed between his brows. He was like a wolf lurking in the shadows, silently retracting his claws and fangs, waiting for an opportunity to move.
Marquis Anlu's eyes were filled with deep thought. He had not wanted Yun'er to marry in the first place, but as her father, he should have given her a home. But Yun'er had run away...
"In that case, Yun'er's marriage to the Liang family is cancelled. The betrothal gifts will be returned tomorrow."
Kneeling on the ground, Aunt Bai froze slightly. The wedding was about to begin, yet they wanted to cancel the engagement. No matter which party broke off the engagement, it would affect Shu Yun's reputation. "I'll sort out the list when I get back."
Marquis Anlu nodded and ordered, "Yun'er's disappearance is a secret, so don't spread it. If I find out who leaks the news, I will beat him to death."
The servants responded tremblingly.
Marquis Anlu signaled Aunt Bai to leave.
Aunt Bai stood up from the ground, bowed and lowered her head and left the hall.
Xiao Ye said, "My sister has been missing for eight days. It seems she left the capital a long time ago and her whereabouts are unknown."
"No matter what, we must find Yun'er!" Marquis Anlu ordered his men to look for her in a deep voice, then left the hall with a wave of his sleeves.
Xiao Ye slowly turned around, his dark and deep eyes looking at the back of the figure walking out of the hall, his eyes gradually becoming sharp.
==========
The next day.
Xiao Ye went to the Liang residence with Liang Meng's birthday invitation. Liang Meng was naturally unwilling to cancel the engagement, but he could not resist the dominance of the Marquis's Mansion and nodded helplessly.
The marriage was called off, Xiao Ye took back Shu Yun's birthday card, and the betrothal gifts from the Liang family were also returned one after another.
In just a few days, the festive atmosphere in the Marquis' Mansion disappeared.
Shuyun ran away from her marriage, and even the kitten she loved ran away and disappeared after a few days.
The maids and servants in Hengwu Garden were busy with their work, the whole place was utterly silent and eerie. When they saw Xiao Ye appear, they bowed their heads and saluted, "Young Master."
Xiao Ye walked into Shu Yun's bedroom with his sleeves fluttering.
The bright red wedding dress was still hanging on the pear wood hanger. It was finely stitched and beautifully made, and it fit her perfectly.
On the dressing table was a phoenix crown for her wedding, gleaming with gold in the light.
Xiao Ye walked over and picked up a phoenix hairpin on the table. Out of the corner of his eye, he inadvertently caught a glimpse of a pair of gold bracelets in the jewelry box.
It was the pair of gold bracelets he gave me.
Xiao Ye chuckled and put down the phoenix hairpin in his hand.
Qiongzhi stood aside and felt that the atmosphere around her suddenly became heavy with the eldest young master's smile. She didn't dare to breathe.
Xiao Ye's deep eyes looked at the festive wedding dress on the shelf and ordered: "The girl is not getting married anymore, and the wedding dress is no longer needed. Take it down."
Qiongzhi didn't dare to refute. She walked over and took the altered wedding dress off the hanger. Holding the dress in her hands, she asked, "Master, should we put it in the warehouse, or..."
"Biluo will come and get it later, along with the phoenix crown. Please clean up the room and put away all the things related to the girl's wedding."
Xiao Ye said calmly, looked around her boudoir, and then left.
…
Later, the weather suddenly changed, dark clouds came, the wind was howling, and there was going to be a heavy rain.
When Anlu Hou saw Xiao Ye leading his horse out of the palace, he asked, "Where are you going at this hour?"
Xiao Ye replied: "Go find my sister."
Marquis Anlu knew that the brother and sister had a very good relationship. Now that Yun'er was nowhere to be seen, he, the eldest brother, was also running around. In the morning, he went to the Liang family with Aunt Bai to cancel the engagement.
There had been no news of Yun'er for ten days. When that familiar face disappeared, he felt that something was really missing.
Marquis Anlu patted his shoulder and said, "We need to find your sister. If you have any news about Yun'er, please report it to me."
The tone sounded just like someone giving orders to his subordinates in the army.
Xiao Ye smiled lightly and said respectfully, "Of course, I haven't seen my sister for a long time."
Marquis Anlu nodded, and Xiao Ye led his horse past him.
Xiao Ye rode away and first went to Zui Chunfeng Restaurant, ordered some dishes and asked the waiter to deliver them to Kanglefang.
In the evening, the wind howled, the rain poured down, and the swaying shadows of the trees were like ghostly claws.
There was a lantern hanging under the eaves, the flickering flames reflected the man's tall figure.
Xiao Ye took out the key and with a "click", the lock on the door fell. He pushed the door open and stepped into the house wrapped in the cold air brought by the falling rain.
The room was brightly lit with candles. The girl in the peach-colored skirt was like a frightened bird. She put down the kitten on her lap, stood up from the couch, and looked at Xiao Ye with a wary and panicked look. When she retreated, she was tripped by the hem of her skirt and fell to the ground.
Shuyun's legs went weak, and her delicate hands supported themselves on the ground. As the man approached step by step, she became anxious and moved back.
The red wedding dress that was delivered in the afternoon bumped into the wooden shelf, and the hem of the dress brushed against the back of her hand. Shuyun's heart trembled. Counting the days, today was the tenth day since she escaped.
She naively thought that she had hidden it from everyone and that the autumn hunt was the best time to escape and no one would discover her. By the time they returned to Beijing, she would have already taken a boat south.
Shuyun never expected that Xiao Ye sent Fu Feng to keep an eye on her in secret.
That day, Shu Yun came out from the back door of Yunshuang Pavilion with light steps, immersed in the joy of escape. When she was about to reach the ferry, Fu Feng suddenly blocked her way and took her back to Xiao Ye's private residence.
Shuyun was imprisoned in Xiao Ye's private residence for ten days.
Xiao Ye knew every move she made.
Steady footsteps sounded in the house. The man approached, his hawk-like eyes fixed on her, like a damp snake crawling from under her feet all over her body, and Shuyun's back felt numb.
Xiao Ye slowly stopped in front of her, looking down at her nonchalantly with his eyes lowered. His shadow cast a shadow over the timid girl. He squatted down and brought his stern face closer.
He reached out and touched Shuyun's frightened cheek. His fingertips were touched by some falling raindrops, which were cold. Shuyun trembled in fright.
Xiao Ye said coldly, "Where are you planning to escape to, sister?"
Shuyun was frightened and stepped back. A big hand suddenly grabbed her slender white ankle. She struggled, but the man's hand tightened, too strong to refuse.
"don't want……"
Shu Yun was horrified and afraid of his next move, so she hurriedly blocked his falling hand and kicked anxiously, but he blocked them all.
Shu Yun pulled out the hairpin from her head in fear and stabbed out in fear. Xiao Ye was caught off guard and the hairpin pierced his shoulder. He didn't feel much pain, but glanced at her calmly and smiled calmly, as if laughing at her naivety, trying to get rid of him with a hairpin.
Even if the hairpin was inserted deeper, it would not be able to harm him.
"When my sister begged me to remove the love poison, she came forward on her own initiative." Xiao Ye said slowly, holding her trembling hand, pressing hard, and inserting the hairpin deeper.
Shuyun didn't expect that he would hurt himself. She looked at him in surprise. The sticky and warm blood flowed on her hands, and she became more and more frightened and uneasy.
Only when her red clothes were stained with blood did Xiao Ye pull out the hairpin from his shoulder and throw it to the ground. He twisted his wrist, twisted her hands behind her back, pressed against her slender waist, and pushed her into his arms with force, strong and domineering.
Shuyun's eyes were red. The more she struggled, the tighter Xiao Ye held her. The rain outside the window was getting heavier, the raindrops were pouring, the strong wind was hitting the windows, and the cold and damp air spread into the house.
Xiao Ye simply bandaged the wound on his shoulder, put on his clothes, and looked at the pitiful figure beside the couch.
Shuyun sat on the couch with her knees hugged, curled up into a small ball, with her feet hidden under her skirt.
Xiao Ye walked over, his tall shadow casting a shadow over her.
Xiao Ye's hand went to lift the hem of her skirt. Shu Yun was frightened and hurriedly held down his hand, pulling her foot, which was covered in red, back.
"pain."
Shuyun looked at him stammeringly, her eyes red and tears glistening.
Xiao Ye was slightly stunned, then bent down and picked her up horizontally.
The ankle that had been pinched felt sore and hot, and Shuyun shed tears silently.
Xiao Ye held her horizontally and sat down at the table. He called out to her, and the maid came in with the steaming hot food, put it down, and then left.
The rain was drizzling outside, and the cool evening breeze blew in through the gaps in the window.
Xiao Ye wiped the tears from the beautiful woman's cheeks as she sat on his knees. He said softly, "I heard that my sister is throwing a tantrum and refuses to eat."
Shuyun bit her lips and said nothing.
Xiao Ye took a bowl and filled it with soup. The jade spoon touched the wall of the bowl lightly, making a crisp sound.
He scooped a spoonful of soup and fed it to her mouth. Seeing that she didn't move, he opened his thin lips and said softly, "Now it's fed to you. Think carefully, sister. Are you sure you don't want to eat it?"
Shuyun was frightened by him and was really afraid of his methods, so she drank the soup that was fed to her mouth.
Xiao Ye was satisfied. He put his long arms around her slender waist and fed her.
All the dishes prepared on the table were her favorites. Xiao Ye picked up some tender and delicious bamboo fungus and fed it to her.
Shuyun lowered her head and took a small bite. The bamboo fungus was soft, crispy and smooth, and the soup wrapped in it spread between her lips and teeth.
When Shuyun wanted to take another bite, Xiao Ye took away the chopsticks and ate the half piece of bamboo fungus she had bitten.
That was something she had eaten before. Shu Yun blushed, and her ears turned red. She really couldn't accept it.
Xiao Ye picked up a piece of fish, picked out the bones and fed it to her. She did this one chopstick after another. In the end, Shu Yun really couldn't eat anymore, so she pushed his hand holding the chopsticks away with her slender hand.
"I can't eat anymore." Shuyun said in a low voice.
Xiao Ye put down his chopsticks and his eyes fell on her slightly bulging belly.
Her belly was soft, and when the poison attacked her, he fed her until it was round and bulging.
Xiao Ye gently pinched her soft waist and said, "Serve my brother some food."
Shuyun hesitated for a while, then slowly picked up the chopsticks and put a piece of meat into his bowl.
Xiao Ye picked up his chopsticks again and started eating.
After dinner, the rain outside subsided.
Xiao Ye ordered people to remove the food.
The candlelight illuminated the red wedding dress on the hanger. Xiao Ye stroked her slender waist, which was so thin that it could be held in one hand, and said, "There is something in my right sleeve. It's for my sister. Please take it out yourself."
Shuyun didn't have the habit of rummaging through other people's things. After a pause, she reached her hand into his wide cuffs and touched a small object, which looked like a small note.
Shu Yun was puzzled and took something out of his sleeve.
Red birthday sticker.
Shuyun's face turned pale, and she had a vague sense of foreboding in her heart.
Xiao Ye held her waist with one hand and helped her open the birthday card with the other. Her name and her birth date were written on it.
Shuyun's head suddenly buzzed and her hands couldn't help but tremble.
Xiao Ye took the birthday card from her hand, placed it on the table, and said calmly, "This marriage is cancelled."
He did not forget to remind her, "Sister, please keep this birthday card safe and don't lose it."
Shuyun's eyes were filled with tears. She couldn't hold them back, and the tears fell like beads from a broken string.
"Sister, why are you crying now? Didn't I leave your fiancé and leave the capital ten days ago?"
Xiao Ye held up her drooping head. Tears gathered in her eyes because she tilted her head back, making her look pitiful and especially sympathetic. So he didn't say any angry words, but just lowered his head, put his warm lips close to hers, and kissed away the warm tears from the corners of her eyes as if they were treasures.
Shuyun was afraid of his intimacy and pushed him away suddenly, with tears in her eyes, like a frightened little rabbit, terrified.
Tears welled up in her eyes as she looked at him tenderly and lovingly, stirring Xiao Ye's heart without a single word. If he hadn't been more cautious and sent Fu Feng to follow her in secret, she would have boarded the ship heading south and disappeared without a trace.
Xiao Ye sneered angrily. He leaned over, brushed his warm lips against her ear, and said in a deep voice, "Don't ever think of getting rid of me in this life, sister."
He held down her restless waist, clasped the back of her head with his big hand, pressed their foreheads together, and said, "Go change into your wedding dress."
…
The falling gauze curtain outlines a graceful figure, and the rustling sound of fabric can be heard in the quiet room.
After a long while, Shuyun reluctantly lifted the veil and emerged in her bright red wedding gown. She was beautiful, with clear eyes and rosy cheeks. Her voice was soft, as gentle and tender as a beautiful girl from a small family.
Xiao Ye sat on the edge of the bed, playing with a red string in his hand. He looked up and motioned the woman to come over.
Seeing that she didn't move, Xiao Ye narrowed his narrow eyes slightly, and slowly wrapped the red rope in his palm around his fingertips, as if he was not in a hurry and was waiting for her.
After a long stalemate, Shuyun walked towards him holding the hem of her wedding dress.
Xiao Ye looked at her wedding dress and said, "Sister, you are the most beautiful bride."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Ye stretched out his hand and pulled Shu Yun down with great force. She couldn't help but scream. When she came to her senses, she had fallen into his arms and sat on his lap.
The candlelight illuminated the man's pupils, which gradually darkened. Shuyun was frightened, and her slender fingers nervously clenched her sleeves.
Xiao Ye's eyes slowly moved down, her feet were hanging in the air, the hem of her wedding dress was
A pair of new embroidered shoes is faintly visible.
During the time she was locked up in the private house, her food, clothing and other expenses were the same as usual. She changed into new clothes every day, and the maid who took care of her was also the most clever.
Xiao Ye bent down, and when his fingers just touched her feet, Shu Yun was frightened and pulled her feet back under her skirt.
Xiao Ye reached out, lifted her skirt, grasped her slender ankle, and took off her embroidered shoes.
The white silk socks were also taken off.
Xiao Ye hooked his long fingers around the red string he had been playing with for a long time, waving it before her anxious eyes, and said, "Sister, your wrists are slender and white, and your ankles are also delicate and bony, which goes perfectly with this red string."
Several red threads were woven into a red rope, and the color was very fresh.
Shuyun thought he was going to bite her feet again, so she struggled in fear. But if he just tied the red rope around her ankles, it would not be unacceptable. She couldn't get away from him no matter how hard she tried.
Shuyun reached out to grab the red rope, but Xiao Ye raised his hand and she missed.
"Don't you have to wear it?" Shu Yun asked doubtfully. As she looked at him, she gradually became unsure.
Of course he had to wear it, but he had to wear it himself.
Xiao Ye put her on the bed, and her small feet fell on his knees.
When he caught a glimpse of a red ribbon in his peripheral vision, Xiao Ye suddenly changed his mind. He hooked his long finger, brought it into his palm, and covered her eyes.
The red gauze fluttered and was tied at the back of Shuyun's head. The candlelight shone through the gauze, and she could not see clearly. The man's figure was hazy, and because of this, the touch was extremely obvious.
When the man's fingertips touched her ankle, Shu Yun trembled slightly and subconsciously shrank back. Xiao Ye grasped her delicate ankle and pulled her foot forward, placing her heel on his seat. Her round, small toes curled up, her skin looking even whiter against her red wedding dress.
Xiao Ye lifted her foot and put the red rope for marriage that he had obtained from the temple into her foot from the sole, slowly pushed it up from the instep, and finally stopped at the ankle.
The red rope tightened, causing Shuyun to tremble slightly. Through the blurred vision of the red gauze, she saw the man's figure approaching.
The slender white ankles were tied with a bright red circle, and the small feet were resting on the knees. The girl sitting on the bed had her eyes covered. I felt pity for her, and Xiao Ye's eyes gradually dimmed.
He slowly leaned over and kissed her soft lips.
Shuyun's eyelashes trembled slightly, and her pushing hand was held by him and placed on his firm chest. Xiao Ye's hand went around behind her, supporting the back of her neck, deepening the kiss and entwining his lips with hers.
Shu Yun was tightly wrapped in the lingering kiss, and gradually lost her strength. She was softly held in his arms, and his slender fingers hooked around her belt and gently pulled it.
The night wind blew into the house, disrupting my breathing, and I could faintly hear low sobbing sounds.
The bright red wedding dress was scattered beside the bed. At the last moment, Xiao Ye came to his senses and let go of the sobbing girl.
He changed her into pajamas. Beads of sweat oozed from his forehead and veins bulged on the back of his hands. It took a great deal of willpower to suppress his desire.
Shuyun was wrapped in her pajamas, huddled in the corner of the bed. The curtains were opened and closed again. She had her back to the outside and heard the sound of water coming from the bathroom. After a long time, footsteps were heard in the room.
The curtains were drawn aside, letting in light. Shuyun closed her eyes and pretended to be asleep, but the light on her eyelids disappeared again as the curtains fell.
The bed was sunken, and the man lay down behind her. Shuyun felt a chill on his body.
Shuyun's heart sank. Did he take a cold shower in the bathroom?
The wound on his shoulder couldn't get wet.
Xiao Ye's arm suddenly stretched out and held her waist. Shu Yun was caught off guard and her whole body tensed up. She turned over in his embrace, her chest pressed against hers, and she rested her head in his arms.
Xiao Ye did not expose her pretend sleep. He pressed his big hand on her slender waist and felt at ease only when his breath was filled with her scent.
There was no love poison. This was the first time the two of them slept together, and he just held her in his arms.
However, in Xiao Ye's arms, Shu Yun was tense and her mind was clearer than ever. As the two of them pressed tightly together, she could clearly feel some changes in Xiao Ye, which were the unfinished business just now.
Shuyun's face turned from red to pale, her eyelashes trembled slightly, and she swallowed in fear, feeling uneasy.
He has a girl he likes, her last name is Shen, and he plans to marry her in the future.
But now he has imprisoned her by his side, and the two of them have been in an unclear relationship for several months.
Shuyun concentrated, and suddenly an idea flashed through her mind.
According to Aunt Bai, Marquis Anlu had a close relationship with Lord Shen, and the late lady and Lord Shen's wife were very good friends. Could the Miss Shen that Xiao Ye is willing to marry be Lord Shen's daughter?
This Miss Shen was born in September, and she also had her birthday in September, which was really too much of a coincidence.
And Xiao Ye would not let her leave.
Shu Yun shuddered suddenly, and for some reason a ridiculous idea suddenly popped up in her mind -
Could this Miss Shen be her?
Shuyun was completely sleepless.
Earlier, she wanted to go to pay homage to the biological parents of the Tian family, but Xiao Ye stopped her and told her not to go in both words and deeds.
The night was quiet and Shuyun couldn't fall asleep. She became more and more anxious and began to doubt her own life experience.
If she was really a girl from the Shen family, then judging by her age, that year was exactly the time when the Tongtian Tower collapsed and Lord Shen was imprisoned.
In this case, it means that Mrs. Zhou did not have a miscarriage and the child is still alive?
But even so, why would she exchange her child with Wang Huilan's?
Xiao Ye was holding his beloved in his arms, and he was also not sleepy. In the quiet tent, only the sound of each other's breathing could be heard.
Later, when it was almost dawn, Shuyun gradually couldn't resist the sleepiness and fell asleep in the man's arms.
Dim light shone into the tent. Xiao Ye opened his eyes and lowered his eyes to look at the tired sleeping face.
His long fingers brushed away the hair on her cheeks. The girl in his arms breathed deeply. Xiao Ye looked at her for a long time, her delicate nose, her soft cherry lips, and her soft cheeks.
He slowly lowered his head and kissed Shuyun on the forehead, then hugged her tightly in his arms with satisfaction.
Once he stamps the stamp, it's his.
===========
Marquis Anlu came out from Shou'an Hall after paying his respects and practiced martial arts in the yard.
It was already mid-morning when Marquis Anlu realized he hadn't seen his son yet, so he ordered his men, "Go to Yanfu Residence and call the eldest son."
The servant went to Yanfu Residence and soon returned to report: "The eldest son is not at home. It seems that he did not come back last night."
Marquis Anlu frowned, puzzled.
…
The room was quiet, with only the sound of washing water.
Xiao Ye sat with legs apart on the edge of the couch, his shoulders and back half exposed, his muscles tight and strong, with a faint sense of power bursting out as he looked at the girl twisting a handkerchief beside him.
Shu Yun wrung out the wet handkerchief, walked up to him, and bent down to wipe the wound on his shoulder.
Originally, it was only the hairpin that stabbed him, but because he used the hairpin to scratch it, two knuckle-long wounds were left on his shoulder.
Shu Yun held the wet handkerchief and wiped the dried blood and powder around the wound bit by bit. A strand of black hair slid down from her shoulder, and the end of the hair brushed across the back of his hand. Xiao Ye's hand moved, and his long fingers wrapped around the end of the hair.
After wiping the wound clean, Shuyun took the medicine bottle and was about to sprinkle the powder on the wound when Fufeng suddenly came into the room.
Fu Feng was slightly stunned when he saw the two people being so intimate.
"What's the matter?" Xiao Ye asked in a deep voice.
"Yes, the Marquis, the Marquis is looking for the eldest son in the mansion."
Shuyun was frightened and her hand holding the medicine bottle trembled, causing a lot of powder in the bottle to spill onto his wound.
Xiao Ye raised his eyes and looked at the frightened girl, realizing that something was wrong with her.
