Chapter 3
"Second prince."
Gu Cong came in, turned around and closed the door, and bowed to Chi Jinnian in salute.
Chi Jinnian turned around with an unusually serious expression, and there was some turbulent emotion shouting in his deep eyes,
"There was an accident in the Liu residence, the assassination failed, and the whole family was executed."
Gu Cong looked up and saw that he was trying his best to control his emotions.
"If Liu Siye is still alive..." Chi Jinnian closed his eyes, his tone was flat but sharp pain was hidden,
"I will definitely go to Youtong to find me."
"I'm going back to Youtong immediately, and I'll leave the matter here to you."
Gu Cong responded, seeing that he was about to walk out of the study with strides, he quickly stopped him,
"Second prince!"
"Mr. Ruan... how to deal with it."
Chi Jinnian paused, turned his face to the side, but didn't turn his head completely.
"When he recovers from his injuries, you will personally send him back to the city."
Gu Cong opened his eyes wide in surprise, seeing that the face of the man in front of him was not shaken, and he still didn't say what he wanted to ask.
Chi Jinnian seemed to understand his hesitation, and added,
"Attacking the Southern Territory is a top priority. As for Fang Shiyun, there is still time to deal with it later."
After finishing speaking, he waved his sleeves and stepped out the door.
Before walking a few steps, he heard a soft call, so Chi Jinnian turned his head and saw Li Wuyue standing by the railing of the study with a gentle smile on his face.
"Second prince, be careful in everything."
Chi Jinnian nodded, didn't say much, turned around to leave, but the person behind her hurriedly followed, and when she turned her head, the smile on her face was obviously far-fetched.
"The second prince really wants to let Mr. Ruan go."
"After so many years, he is the first one who can get away from the second prince like this."
Chi Jinnian squinted his eyes slightly, his already restless mood swirled in his eye sockets,
"what do you want to say in the end."
Li Wuyue pursed her lips and thought for a moment, and finally raised her eyes to meet his gaze,
"I saw it that day, Second Prince..."
"Let Mr. Ruan sleep on his chest for an hour."
Chi Jinnian's complexion was no longer pretty, and his tone was not very kind, so he asked,
"so what."
"I don't understand why you said these words, and I don't understand when you started to think about my thoughts."
"Li Wuyue," Chi Jinnian turned around, the night wind blew his temple hair, but it only made people feel chilling,
"Don't be ignorant."
Li Wuyue watched him stride away, a clear river unconsciously formed in her eyes.
After so many years, why did I only change a sentence that I don't know how to measure.
Chi Jinnian walked past the room of the little man, but stopped for some reason.
The window was open, and the room was lit with bright lights. Standing in front of the window, he saw that the young man was wearing a simple and elegant white thin shirt, with black hair hanging on his shoulders, a slightly sideways face, a high nose bridge and slightly curled eyelashes. Jumping light.
He is smaller, thinner, and weaker than Liu Siye, but their auras are so similar, with a whole body of elegance, mixed with a little melancholy.
Thinking of that face whose life and death were uncertain, Chi Jinnian only felt a dull pain in his chest, and subconsciously stroked the window sill with one hand, but startled the beautiful deer in the room.
Ruan Yuan looked towards the window, met the man's eyes, but his heart was suddenly attacked by the sadness in his eyes, and he couldn't breathe.
This person who is always vicious and merciless, is very sad now.
The two lines of sight met, but now the other flinched.
Ruan Yuan stood up subconsciously, and was about to walk to the window, but the man let go of his hand, turned around and left without saying a word.
Ruan Yuan chased to the window, leaned out and watched the man's tall back disappear at the end of the corridor, a strange emotion suddenly rose in his heart.
It seemed a little distressed, but also contained a little bit of weird reluctance.
This person should always be domineering and arrogant.
How can you be sad.
-------
"Master Gu, where did Wang Nian go?"
Ruan Yuan looked at the carriage parked in front of him, and the question he subconsciously asked surprised even himself.
Gu Cong tied the horse he had brought to the carriage,
"Where is he going, there is no need to tell us."
"This carriage is for you."
Ruan Yuan was startled, subconsciously stepped back,
"Where are you taking me?"
Gu Cong patted the horse's back, turned sideways and looked back at the vigilant little man,
"Send you back to the city."
Back to the city…?A person like Wang Nian would just let him go back like this?
Ruan Yuan opened his eyes wide in disbelief, and grabbed the beam of the car window tightly, as if grabbing a life-saving straw, and Wang Nian's domineering sentence "I saved your life, this life is yours" sounded in his ears benefactor".
"Just let me go back like this, what else will you want me to do in the future?"
Gu Cong took a step forward, reached out and patted his shoulder lightly,
"He is him, I am me."
"I don't need you to do anything, and I hope that after you leave,"
Gu Cong's clear eyes trembled slightly,
"He won't think of you again."
"Otherwise, even if you hide in the ends of the earth, you won't be able to escape."
Ruan Yuan was stunned for a moment, watching the gentle young man lower his hands, walked to the carriage, and opened the curtain for him,
"Get in the car, Mr. Chen."
Ruan Yuan clenched his fist secretly, raised his foot and walked over, Gu Congyu helped him into the carriage.
As soon as the curtain was put down, a gentle but serious reminder came from outside,
"I didn't tell you, don't draw the curtain or open the window."
"No matter what you hear, just pretend you didn't hear it."
Ruan Yuan responded, grabbed the beam with one hand, and sat up steadily. Hearing Gu Cong's soft shout from outside, the carriage started to wobble.
That bamboo grove, that domineering person, this empty inn, all kinds of incomprehensible things will all become a thing of the past now.
Don't think of me if you can.
--------
When the curtain was lifted again, the carriage had already stopped at the gate of the city.
Gu Cong helped Ruan Yuan get out of the car, and lightly grabbed his slender arm with his hand, finally entangled his throat with the calm mood of parting.
He watched the little man stand firm, and just lowered his hand, his eyes flicked briefly on his fair neck, and then retracted it wisely.
"Young Master Gu."
The little man took two steps forward, but turned his head.
"Although you must have known it long ago, I still want to tell you personally."
"My surname is not Chen, my surname is Ruan."
There was a gentle smile on his lips, lighting up the surrounding air and bringing out a refreshing fragrance,
"I actually had a good time during this time."
"Because each of you call me 'son' instead of 'girl'."
"If you don't need to kill Fang Shiyun,"
His long eyelashes trembled slightly, the smile on his lips grew wider, and the gentle aura around him almost melted Gu Cong on the spot.
"I hope to see you again."
After he finished speaking, he turned around, but Gu Cong's heart was on fire, he strode forward and grabbed his arm, and with the other hand, he unloaded a sachet from his waist and put it in his palm.
"Mr. Ruan, if you are in a hurry, take this and walk through the bamboo forest to find the inn."
"I will definitely help you."
Take it as a return gift for your trust in me.
----------
The news of Miss Ruan's return to the mansion quickly spread.
When Lian Junqiu heard the news, she was restless these days and couldn't even eat.Seeing the master's appearance, her personal servant girl was very anxious.
"Young Madam, please drink some porridge..." the maid Nuonuo begged, but the porridge bowl was lifted by Lian Junqiu at the table, and fell straight to the ground. It's all over the place.
"Young Madam...Please also ask Young Madam to think about her body...not eating or drinking like this..."
Lian Junqiu became angry when she heard these words, and shouted at the maid:
"How can you let me eat it! Miss Ruan is living a good life, and she has rejected all the marriage proposals. What does this mean! Isn't it just thinking about my young wife's position!"
She ruthlessly grabbed the purple-gold embossed hand stove on the table and threw it to the ground with a bang, which made the servant girl tremble and dare not speak, sobbing softly.
Suddenly, a deep and calm male voice came from outside the window:
"Don't worry, Miss Ruan will never think about your position as Mrs. Fang."
Lian Junqiu was stunned when she heard this, and the maid also raised her head in horror, only to see the door was pushed open, and a tall and straight black figure entered in response.
As soon as Fang Shiyun came in, she saw the mess in the room and frowned. The maid quickly packed it up as if she was busy taking some panacea, and then quickly backed out, closing the door by the way.
Seeing Fang Shiyun coming, Lian Junqiu's eyes softened immediately, and she leaned towards Fang Shiyun:
"You came to see me, are you really worried about me..."
Unexpectedly, she was pushed away by Fang Shiyun in the next second,
"Fang said that you are only allowed the position of the young wife of the Fang family, and Fang can't give the rest. I hope my wife will respect herself."
"Up to now, do you still think about that Miss Ruan family? She and you have long been impossible! Why can't you look at me!"
Lian Junqiu became hysterical, her eyes stared like a scourge that has lost its mind.
Fang Shiyun still looked indifferent:
"Fang came here today to remind Madam that when you come to Fang's house, even if you die and say that you have contracted a serious disease, your father who is far away in Youtong will not be able to do anything."
After finishing speaking, he pushed open the door with big strides, then turned around and added:
"The things in Madam's room are all bought by my mother, I hope Madam will cherish them." Then the footsteps gradually went away.
Na Lian Junqiu yelled, and when she got angry, she didn't look like a young lady, grabbing everything in the room and smashing it indiscriminately,
"Whatever I bought with my heart, it was all for that Ruan Ying, I smashed it all! I smashed it all!"
The servant girl was shivering outside the house, listening to the appalling sound of broken utensils in the house, counting how many things she had to pack up later, she secretly shed tears.
Fang Shiyun went straight to the outside of the porch before suddenly stopping, punching the wall next to her, her chest trembling violently, she didn't know whether it was anger or sadness.
Something lightly touched the nose, Fang Shiyun reached out and grabbed it, it was Chi Xia's acacia flower.
Memories crawled into my heart, and the picturesque smile of that little boy was imprinted in front of my eyes through the haze.
"Brother Fang, if you can stay with you for the rest of your life, even if you can't be Mrs. Fang, what's the point?"

Lian Junqiu: "You still marry me if you don't like me, scumbag."
