If she goes out without anyone to protect her, her enemies from Huanhai Prefecture will come looking for her, or kidnap her to threaten her sister into surrendering.
My sister did this for her safety.
Thinking of this, Jiang Xinyao sighed inwardly.
Someone like her may appear glamorous on the surface, but in reality, she faces countless dangers behind the scenes, and could lose her life if she's not careful.
She dared not reveal her identity when she was out.
Jiang Yuetong, who had been observing her expression, couldn't help but furrow her beautiful brows slightly, as if she had suddenly remembered something, and said, "It's strange, really."
Jiang Xinyao was a little confused when she heard this, and said "Huh?" in confusion.
Jiang Yuetong pretended to be troubled and slowly explained, "Actually, I only became enemies with the Evil Lord recently. We were complete strangers before, but he kidnapped me in the Wanchuan Forest."
He insists I'm related to him; perhaps we just look somewhat alike.
Looking back now, it's utterly ridiculous. He could even mistake the woman he liked. For that alone, I can despise him for the rest of my life.
After he found out I wasn't the person he was looking for, he grabbed my neck and even released his contracted beast to fight me.
If it weren't for your brother-in-law showing up at the last minute, I'm afraid I wouldn't be sitting here safe and sound right now.
After saying that, Jiang Yuetong sighed softly.
"The Evil Lord is quite powerful. If he hadn't provoked our Huanhai Prefecture first, no one would have wanted to start a fight so easily."
Jiang Xinyao was filled with shock. She asked incredulously, "He really hurt my sister?"
This was simply the truth, and Jiang Yuetong had nothing to hide, so she calmly nodded: "Yes."
As soon as she finished speaking, Jiang Xinyao moved even closer.
She looked Jiang Yuetong up and down, her eyes full of concern: "Sister, is your injury healed yet?"
Hearing this, Jiang Yuetong smiled slightly and said, "I'm almost fully recovered, Yao Yao, you don't need to worry."
Jiang Xinyao pursed her lips and didn't say anything more, but in her heart she thought: You Jiang Jinchen, not only did you mistake her for someone else, but you also dared to hurt her sister, you liar!
After an unknown amount of time, Jiang Xinyao finally left the main hall and went back to pack her things to head to the academy.
Sitting on the throne, Jiang Yuetong watched the receding figure, a rare look of confusion flashing in her eyes.
She closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and then lowered her head to continue handling the affairs of Huanhai Prefecture.
...
The next day.
Inside the Wangxi Pavilion.
Jiang Yuetong didn't get up early as before, but continued to sleep in Lü Jingliang's arms.
After an unknown amount of time, Lu Jingliang reached out and gently stroked her long, ink-black hair, his deep voice soft as he said, "Madam, you finally have some free time today?"
Jiang Yuetong closed her eyes and hummed in agreement.
A soft, sweet voice rang out, and Lu Jingliang's deep gaze darkened. He couldn't help but hug her tighter.
After noticing his unusual behavior, Jiang Yuetong finally came to her senses and placed her hand on his forehead. After a while, she placed the back of her hand on her own forehead.
Seeing her suddenly do this, Lü Jingliang raised an eyebrow: "What's wrong?"
Jiang Yuetong reached out and pulled the blanket a little closer, looking at him with a serious expression: "I feel like something's off about you lately, there must be something wrong."
Moreover, this feeling made her very uneasy.
I have a feeling that something big is about to happen.
Looking at her delicate, fair face, Lu Jingliang smiled and said, "So, Madam suspects I've lost my mind?"
