Wujue didn't expect that just by saying Mei Shuiqing's name, the girl would react so strongly. Seeing that the person's condition was getting worse and worse, he quickly shouted: "Guantao!"
Xiaotao has fallen into unspeakable fear. She doesn't know why she is so scared, but as long as the words 'Mei Shuiqing' and 'Master Mei' appear in her mind, she can't help but tremble and want to find cover. A place to hide yourself.
It wasn't until her name suddenly rang in her ears that a small piece of clarity finally fell from the whirlpool of fear that filled her mind. Only then did she slowly focus her eyes again and see everything around her clearly.
After she woke up, she shook her head crazily, "Don't ask me, don't ask me, I don't know anything!"
Wujue originally wanted to ask her where they had been and what Mei Shuiqing had done during the time she was taken away by Mei Shuiqing, but seeing this, he did not dare to ask further.
The human spirit can suddenly collapse under extreme stress and fear. He has seen it with his own eyes.
Let’s wait until we get to the place!
The taxi drove quietly and smoothly the rest of the way.
In order not to irritate Xiaotao again, Wujue didn't even look through the rearview mirror in the direction of the back seat.
Until the car drove into a resort hotel built on the lakeside and drove to the villa area behind.
Although the third-tier town where they are located is remote, it has beautiful scenery. This resort hotel by the lake is specially designed for tourists to escape the summer heat.
Most of the people who come here to play during the summer vacation are students, and the originally quiet hotel becomes a little lively because of these students.
Hearing the energetic laughter outside the car window, Xiao Tao, who was huddled motionless in the car, was inevitably attracted to her eyes and couldn't help but raise her head and look out the car window.
I just happened to see a group of college students walking by the road. The boys were holding basketballs in their hands and riding skateboards. There was a girl next to me who wanted to try her skateboard. She was helped by her companions to step on it, but she couldn't keep it up. She was trying to keep her balance, but fortunately, the boy who was holding her quickly helped her down with quick eyes and hands.
"Seeing how easy it is for you to play, why is it so difficult to replace me?"
"Auntie, when I first started learning this, I stumbled a lot."
Facing the golden sunset, those young and lively faces are so enviable.
Xiao Tao forgot to blink for a moment, and it wasn't until the car suddenly stopped and turned off that she came back to her senses.
When the driver in front of me unbuckled his seat belt and turned around to look at him, his body that had been somewhat relaxed became stiffer inch by inch.
Seeing her like this, Wujue felt a little helpless, but he could only lower his tone and explain softly: "Miss Xiaotao, you have also seen that this is a hotel, and there are many students on vacation nearby. The environment is really safe. . Please believe me, I don’t have any ill intentions towards you. I invite you here this time just to have a few words with you and understand some things."
However, his words obviously had no effect. Xiao Tao still held her phone and backpack tightly and looked at him warily.
Wujue: "..."
Unexpectedly, his face, which makes people feel friendly and harmless, and has always been successful in winning the target's trust, will one day lose its effectiveness.
The two looked at each other silently and were confronting each other until someone knocked on the passenger window from outside.
Outside the half-open window, a pair of very recognizable phoenix eyes were looking into the car with a hint of confusion, "We're already here, why don't you get out of the car?"
Wujue couldn't help but wipe his face.
Can he say that he accidentally said something too much on the road and almost scared the little girl out of her wits?
He was really embarrassed to tell his friends about this kind of dark history!
Just as he was thinking about what to say, a exclamation came from the back seat.
Xiao Tao looked at the man standing outside the car with wide eyes, then raised her hand and rubbed her eyes to make sure she saw correctly, "Shen, Mr. Shen?"
Shen Yunqing tilted his head slightly, met Xiao Tao's stunned gaze, and nodded lightly, "It's me. Miss Xiao Tao, long time no see."
Xiao Tao looked at Shen Yunqing standing outside the car, and then at the driver wearing a baseball cap, and felt that his head could not move at all.
But I was scared before, and I will be scared now.
It took a while before I found my voice again, "Yes, it's been a long time."
The last time she met Mr. Shen, she was with Jiang Xiyu on the set of "Empress Yuan Zhao". Later, she took Jiang Xiyu's instructions...
Until now, she was sitting in the car that was supposed to go to Xiaodongshan Hospital and saw each other again.
"Why are you here? And what is the relationship between you two?"
"I'm here to wait for Miss Xiao Tao. This is Wujue, and I asked him to bring you here first."
A few minutes later.
Xiaotao sat stiffly under the parasol in the courtyard of the small villa, holding a cup of tea that was exuding fragrance. There was also a small and exquisite incense burner on the table in front of her, and wisps of smoke came from the gaps in the incense burner. Wafting out, the fragrance of living tea makes people calm for no reason.
Watching Mr. Shen across from him take a sip of tea, she followed suit and took a sip.
The temperature of the tea is just right. When you drink it, there is no bitterness as expected from tea leaves, only a sweetness and fragrance.
So, she couldn't help but take another sip.
She left Jiang Xiyu's villa in the morning and went to the airport to catch a plane. After getting off the plane and getting in a car, she didn't even drink a sip of water, not to mention eating.
Only now did I feel very thirsty.
Seeing this, Shen Yunqing poured her another glass of water. After watching her drink it, she said without hesitation: "Miss Xiao Tao still remembers to visit the elders in the family, so I won't tell you."
"Half a month ago, Miss Xiao Tao took a pendant that Jiang Xiyu stole from...Jiang Lingxi and gave it to Master Mei Shui Qingmei."
Xiao Tao suddenly clenched the cup in her hand.
Shen Yunqing carefully observed her reaction and continued: "Afterwards, Wujue took people to personally inspect the villa that Mei Shuiqing had abandoned in a hurry, and found some traces of crude magic techniques in the villa."
"Spell, sleight of hand?"
Shen Yunqing smiled at her, "Miss Xiao Tao must also have some doubts. Master Mei Shui Qingmei knows something that ordinary people think is as miraculous as a dancing master, but it is really useful."
"I……"
Although she still felt a kind of fear from the bottom of her heart after hearing "Meishui Qing", she didn't know whether it was because of the two cups of tea she just drank or the fragrance lingering in her nose at this moment. Although she was afraid, at least The mind can still remain calm.
"She is indeed very scary." Xiao Tao took a few deep breaths of incense, then suppressed her fear and hesitated to speak, "I don't even dare to look at her. I always feel that she is like...a monster!"
Wujue, who was about to help add incense, said: "...This description is a bit abstract!"
Shen Yunqing: "Add your fragrance!"
