Chapter 333 Do you dislike him?
Summer rain comes quickly and goes away quickly.
When Wen Wan returned to the inn, the rain had stopped, but the air was still filled with the fishy smell of earth.
Although she had severely defeated He Miao in Chunhua Tower, Wen Wan's mood did not get better.
Wen Wan parted ways with the two guards at the door, but did not rush to push the door open.
There was a cold smile on her lips, and her deep gaze fell on the door handle.
If nothing unexpected happened, Shen Yu must be waiting for her in the room at this moment.
This bastard always kept his distance from He Miao, but now he sneaked through the window into the house to wait for her.
Although she knew that he was doing this for her own good, he was a tall tree that attracted wind, and if he got too close to her in front of outsiders, he was afraid that it would bring disaster to her.
but……
The unhappiness in my heart is real.
It's not that she is ashamed, but because she is in a weak position, even standing upright next to him has become a dangerous and frightening thing?
Perhaps because she hadn't made any movement, the people in the room were getting impatient.
The door suddenly opened, Shen Yu pulled Wen Wan into the room, and then quickly closed the door.
"What were you doing standing at the door for so long?"
Shen Yu habitually held her in his arms.
This time, Wen Wan did not respond to him, but just stood there lazily.
Her silence made Shen Yu frown, and he asked in a low voice: "Are you angry?"
Wen Wan raised the corner of her mouth in dismay, "Not really."
Shen Yu: “…”
There is a saying that goes, the fewer words, the bigger the matter.
It seems that he is really angry.
He pulled her to sit on the bed, played with her white and tender palms, hesitated for a moment, and said something that shocked Wen Wan.
"Xiao Wan, I'm afraid it will be difficult to clear my father's name this time."
Wen Wan was stunned for a moment, then looked up and stared at him with burning eyes.
"What did you find?"
Shen Yu then said slowly, "When I arrived at Fuyun Temple, a group of men in black were killing the monks in the temple to silence them. Unfortunately, I was too slow and only managed to save the old abbot who was still breathing."
"My father wasn't one to pray to gods or Buddhas. When he was alive, he often said that if karma and reincarnation really existed, then he'd killed countless people in his lifetime and would be so sinful that even Buddha wouldn't accept him."
"So, it's unreasonable for him to come to Fuyun Temple to worship Buddha this time."
Shen Yu's expression darkened as he spoke, and he gritted his teeth and continued, "The old host held on to his last breath and told me before he died that my father was ordered by the emperor to fulfill the emperor's wish."
Hearing this, Wen Wan couldn't help but shiver all over.
Prince Anding was ordered to come to Fuyun Temple to fulfill the emperor's vow, but he was ambushed in advance and died tragically in a dry well.
Prince Anding came from the battlefield, he is not an idle prince who knows nothing. He would never easily reveal his whereabouts to others.
Knowing that Prince Anding was coming to Fuyun Temple, he was able to set a trap in advance. The person behind this...
Perhaps she was thinking of something, and Wen Wan's scalp felt tingling.
She licked her dry lips and said, "You are suspicious..."
"Um."
Shen Yu's eyes dimmed, and at this moment, all the momentum in his body was lost.
From top to bottom, everyone in the Shen family took it as their responsibility to be loyal to the country. Their loyalty was pure and without any impurities, and their blood was shed on the battlefield.
But such a Shen family ended up in ruins. The people in power were jealous of their achievements and eventually they were framed and died tragically in a foreign land.
How could Shen Yu be willing to accept this?
For a long time, Shen Yu did not make a sound. He was like a wounded beast, curled up in the deepest part of the cave, licking his wounds alone in despair.
Wen Wan couldn't bear to see him like this, so she sighed and put her arms around his waist.
Shen Yu came back to his senses, his throat rolling, and he said in a hoarse voice: "I am somewhat glad now that you are not a member of the Shen family. Otherwise... if that day really comes, I am afraid that I..."
The word "afraid" is something that people like Shen Yu would never easily say in their entire lives.
Wen Wan couldn't help but feel a lump in her throat when she heard him say that. She raised her hand and twisted his arm, then said fiercely:
"I'm not afraid, so why are you afraid?"
She sneered, "Which of the powerful enemies you've encountered in your life was an ordinary person? They're just powerful people. What's there to be afraid of? This world doesn't belong to them."
Shen Yu looked at her in surprise.
Wen Wan said in a deep voice, "The country is not the private property of one person or one family. The people are the masters of this land. Think carefully, are you loyal to a certain family, or to the people of this land?"
"What's more, you're only suspicious now, not convinced that the person behind this is him. What if it's a villain who's causing trouble and alienating the emperor and his subjects? Wouldn't your suspicion just fall into that villain's trap?"
It’s not that Shen Yu doesn’t understand these principles, he’s just licking his wounds alone and hopes that someone can discover his grievances.
Wen Wan's words really made Shen Yu's heart tremble.
These words may sound shocking at first, but only those who have experienced great storms can glimpse the rules of the world.
This woman always surprises him again and again.
"Xiao Wan," Shen Yu said with a sob, "the scholars and officials in the court are not as good as you."
Wen Wan breathed a sigh of relief when she saw his eyes brighten again.
"Okay, cheer up, we still have a lot to do."
Wen Wan pushed him away a little and took out the brocade bag she found in the underground secret room of Fuyun Temple from her arms.
Shen Yu took it and read it, then lowered his eyes and thought after finishing it.
Wen Wan couldn't help but ask, "Do you know what this circled area is?"
Hearing this, Shen Yu raised his eyes to meet her gaze, but did not answer immediately. Instead, he said meaningfully:
"Can you take a closer look?"
Wen Wan was stunned and picked up the paper to look at it carefully.
"Eh? It really looks more and more familiar the more I look at it."
She turned the drawing around and reversed it, and finally she understood it.
"Isn't this the valley where Azhuoxin hid? We almost died in there."
"Yes." Shen Yu frowned, "It seems that I have to go to that valley myself."
After saying that, he hugged Wen Wan on his knees, looked up and kissed her on the cheek.
"Xiao Wan, this time it's all thanks to you! Otherwise, the clues my father left behind would have been completely lost."
Wen Wan wiped the saliva from her face, and seeing that he had regained his fighting spirit, she smiled too.
But Shen Yu held her wrist and asked, "Why are you wiping it? Do you dislike me?"
Wen Wan twitched the corner of her mouth and refused to answer the question.
"Heh," Shen Yu seemed dissatisfied with her reaction, and with a sudden thought, he simply held her face and kissed her lips.
After a moment, the two separated breathlessly.
Chen Yu smiled maliciously and said, "Don't be so hypocritical next time. Look, you really like my mouth..."
Before he could finish his words, Wen Wan kicked him off the bed.
You bastard, you have no shame!
