Chapter 330: Go to a good place
Perhaps, only when the Shen family falls into the quagmire will the Shen family allow a woman like her to enter?
Thinking of this, Wen Wan's face suddenly turned pale.
When she came to her senses, she felt a panic in her heart.
She was also crazy, to have such a vicious idea.
If this is the only way to stand beside Shen Yu, then...
It’s better not to have this man.
She liked him, but she wouldn't turn herself into someone she hated just for a man.
*
There was a carriage parked outside the yamen.
He Miao helped Shen Yu get into the carriage, but she lifted the curtain and said coldly to Wen Wan:
"Just follow the carriage. There's no room for you inside."
Wen Wan didn't say anything when she heard that, but just stared at He Miao with a smile on her face.
For some reason, when she looked at him like that, He Miao felt an inexplicable discomfort, as if she was being stared at by a snake.
He Miao pretended to be calm, "What's with that look in your eyes? Don't think you can be fearless just because Brother Yu is protecting you! We are in Fengcheng now, this is my brother..."
Before she finished speaking, she saw Wen Wan calmly take out a jade pendant and play with it casually in her hand.
At first, He Miao didn't take it seriously and glared at Wen Wan in a bluffing manner. Suddenly, her eyes fixed.
He Miao exclaimed in disbelief, "Where did you get this jade pendant?"
Wen Wan ignored her and turned to walk towards the tea shop in the distance.
She didn't look back, but just said something lightly.
"I'm staying at the East City Inn. If Miss He is interested in what I have, please come early in the evening. I go to bed early. If you come late, I won't have time to see you."
In the tea shop, two guards stood up to greet her.
Wen Wan waved her hand calmly, signaling them to follow.
The three of them walked towards the inn.
After turning the corner, the guard couldn't help but ask:
“Miss Wen, the young man who got on the carriage just now, is he General Shen?”
God knows they were really scared when they suddenly saw Shen Yu appear.
Not only does Chen Yu have a very high reputation in the Duan Dynasty, but to the people of Mobei, he is like a killing god.
Wen Wan responded, "It's him."
The two guards looked a little nervous when they heard her admit it.
One of the guards said tentatively, "Miss Wen, if Miss Wen and General Shen meet up, then we will..."
Deep down, they are still afraid of Shen Yu.
Wen Wan, however, didn't care much and said calmly, "General Shen has a beautiful woman by his side, so he has no time to bother with me. But you don't have to rush to leave. Since you're here, how can you go back empty-handed?"
The guard frowned, "What does Miss Wen mean?"
"No rush, just wait."
Wen Wan raised the corner of her mouth, a gleam in her eyes, and said in a somewhat sinister tone, "I am a good person in other aspects, but I can't stand any loss. Since you provoke me, you must pay the price. I am worried that I don't have a gift for Enen."
The two guards were confused and could only follow her doubtfully.

When it was getting dark, it started to rain.
The rain gradually got heavier, and the originally bustling streets became extremely quiet in a short while.
After nightfall, the entire street was silent except for the sound of rain, which was extremely creepy.
The innkeeper had a cloth draped over his shoulders. He leaned against the door railing, yawning and looking bored at the rain falling on the eaves.
The shopkeeper walked behind him at some point and stretched his neck to take a look outside.
The waiter couldn't help but complain, "Didn't that girl say someone would definitely come tonight? And told us to not close the door and wait patiently?"
"There's no one on the street, and it's raining so hard, I don't think anyone will come."
"Boss, why don't we just close the shop and take a rest."
The shopkeeper shook his head. "That won't do. We're open for business. Since we've already paid that girl for guarding the door, we have to keep it open. Let's wait a little longer. If no one comes after half an hour, we'll close it again..."
Before he could finish his words, the sound of horse hooves could be heard at the end of the street.
The clerk and the shopkeeper were both startled and looked out eagerly.
Then I saw a carriage coming in the rain. The carriage was very luxurious and it was obvious that it belonged to a wealthy family.
The driver was a guard. Although he was wearing a straw raincoat, the hem of his robe was soaked by the rain.
The carriage stopped at the door of the inn. The guard took the umbrella and opened it before bringing in the footstool.
The car door opened, and the girl wrapped in a cloak carefully lifted the hem of her skirt.
"What a horrible weather! Why is it raining so heavily out of nowhere?"
He Miao looked unhappy and complained as she walked.
The guard seemed to have gotten used to his young lady's temper, and did not react at all when he heard the complaints.
He Miao didn't expect a guard to say anything, so she raised her neck and strode into the inn.
The innkeeper and the waiter hurried to greet them.
He Miao didn't give them a chance to speak and just threw a piece of silver into the shopkeeper's arms.
"I know there's a pretty girl living here. Go and tell her I'm here and ask her to come out and see me."
Pretty girl...
This description is quite apt.
At least, the shopkeeper knew who she was talking about as soon as he heard her.
But the shopkeeper stood still. "Uh... well, the girl said it was raining heavily today, so she went out to drink some hot wine. If anyone wants to see her, if it's not urgent, just wait. If it's urgent, you can also go to Chunhua Tower in the west of the city to look for her."
This inn is in the east of the city, so why ask her to go to the west of the city to find someone?
With such strong wind and heavy rain, wouldn't it take more than half an hour to pass through the city?
He Miao widened her eyes. Wasn't this just a deliberate attempt to torment her?
"What a courage!"
He Miao was very angry, but Wen Wan was not there at all, so she was holding back her anger and couldn't vent it at all.
What made her even more depressed was that Wen Wan was certain that she would go looking for someone for the jade pendant.
The shopkeeper was very good at reading people's expressions when doing business. Seeing that He Miao was of great importance and had a bad temper, he wisely did not say much to him.
After all, they were waiting here just to pass on the message.
Now that the word has spread, the shopkeeper's money is secure.
He winked at the waiter, who then went to pick up the teapot with a smile, "I'll make you a pot of hot tea right away, young lady. Please take a seat."
"Sit down! Who the hell is she? Why would she let me wait for her?"
Even He Miao, who was born into a wealthy family, was forced to spit out a curse word. You can imagine how angry she was.
He Miao was about to leave angrily, but suddenly turned back and asked:
"What kind of place is this Chunhua Tower you just mentioned?"
The shopkeeper coughed awkwardly twice and said awkwardly, "Chunhualou, that's a great place."
Perhaps the meaningful smile on the shopkeeper's face was too obvious, so even though he didn't say it explicitly, He Miao guessed what he meant.
She was just in disbelief.
Who the hell is this woman Wen Wan? How dare she go to that kind of place?
What exactly did Brother Yu see in her?
