With doubts and confusion in his heart, Jingfeng followed Xie Ping and others to the courtyard where Long Shengna was training.
"I've met the head of the family, I've met the ancestor."
A maid with a delicate face bent down and saluted, but her bright eyes blinked and secretly looked at the scenery.
"How are you resting, Miss Long?"
After all, the right to speak is still in the hands of my family. Jingfeng did not rush to speak, and Xie Ping asked the question.
"Go home, sir. The doctor said that Miss Long is fine. She will clean up the blood on her face tomorrow and take some beauty elixirs to recover."
Xie Ping stroked his short beard, nodded slightly, and then glanced at Jingfeng meaningfully.
"We want to see her, you go ask Miss Long about her wishes."
"Yes." The maid turned back to the small courtyard and came out after only half a cup of tea.
"My lord, Miss Long will be here shortly. Please wait for a moment."
After a while, everyone saw a woman walking out of the small courtyard. Although she was dressed in plain clothes, she had a graceful figure and elegant manners. Her whole body exuded an elegant and charming temperament that was difficult to conceal. She was none other than Long Shengna.
This kind of temperament is not caused by practicing some strange skills, but is innate. Of course, years of nurturing is also indispensable. It is no wonder that Long Shengna attracts many men wherever she goes.
Jingfeng naturally heard from Xie Ping about what happened in the City Lord's Mansion. With the help of the Silverback Rat King, he defeated Li Bo and went back to rescue Long Shengna. Unexpectedly, Li Changsheng personally dealt with him. But after losing consciousness, there was such a woman who pleaded for herself regardless of the danger...
His thoughts drifted farther and farther away. Such profound emotions made waves surge in Jingfeng's heart. How could he not feel it?
Perhaps there was a connection between the two of them, and as far as the eye could see, they were looking impartially, and they happened to be looking into Long Shengna's beautiful eyes, and Jingfeng suddenly smiled in surprise.
Unexpectedly, after being stunned for a moment, Long Shengna hurriedly raised her hands to cover her cheeks with her wide sleeves, then turned around and left in a hurry.
"Long Shengna?" Jingfeng was confused and tried to shout to the other party.
After hearing the sound, the other party's footsteps became faster, which made Jingfeng even more confused.
Why is she avoiding me?
So, with this idea in mind, Jingfeng planned to catch up and ask him face to face.
He didn't take two steps, but he felt a strong energy behind him, pulling him back.
"Old senior, why?"
Looking at Xie Xun who was taking back his sleeves and robe, Jingfeng asked with some annoyance.
A smile appeared on Xie Xun's old face. He nodded gently at the scenery and said clearly: "The little girl is still too young. She is looking at the flowers in the mist in the middle of the game. I think it's not that the little girl doesn't want to see her. You, but she has bruises on her face because she is afraid of damaging her image in your mind."
After Xie Xun mentioned this, Jingfeng came back to his senses and thought about it for a while, vaguely remembering that he had just seen that Long Shengna's left face did seem to have bruises that had not faded away, adding a little more beauty to the beautiful face. flaw.
"Is that why she refuses to see me?"
Jingfeng was a little dumbfounded. The two of them had gone through so many ups and downs together, how could he care about these things.
"That's natural. The little girl is very attracted to you. You must seize the opportunity!"
Xie Xun's rare act of rudeness made Jingfeng's face turn red and he felt a little embarrassed.
"I actually...don't care about this at all..."
After muttering something softly, Jingfeng asked: "Where did the injury on her face come from? Was it Li Changsheng's doing?"
"No, no matter what happens on the wedding day, Li Changsheng would never attack the bride in front of the guests. It was Eunuch Xu who he invited to do it."
"Eunuch Xu..."
As he repeated the name, the corresponding image became clear in Jingfeng's mind.
"How dare you hit Long Shengna, I will repay this revenge to him!"
Thinking that Long Shengna suffered so many unreasonable disasters because of herself, Jingfeng couldn't help but clenched his fists and was filled with anger.
"But Eunuch Xu is dead, so don't take this matter too seriously."
Ouyang Lian understood the horror of the Heart-Eating Soul-Seizing Bell, and feared that Jingfeng would be overwhelmed by anger again, so he quickly comforted him.
Fortunately, Jingfeng could still keep his composure at this moment and nodded silently.
After calming down, Jingfeng walked towards the maid at the door and said, "Please lead me to invite Miss Long out, and tell Jingfeng that she has something to tell her about her father."
Jingfeng thought that if he told Long Shengna that he didn't care about the bruises on the other person's face, he was afraid that the other party would refuse to show up. Because Long Shengna cared about it herself, she could only use her father's affairs as an excuse. Long Sheng must be like this Na will not refuse.
Not long after, a beautiful figure followed the maid and walked out handsomely. A pair of beautiful eyes twinkled, and his head was deliberately tilted to the left, as if he was trying to cover the unhealed bruises on his cheeks, which looked a little funny.
Because there were many elders present, Long Shengna seemed a little reserved, but Jingfeng could clearly feel the expectation and joy in those beautiful petal-like eyes.
Facing the lovely person in front of him, Jingfeng prepared his words and stepped forward and said, "Uncle Long has been safely sent to Yaowang Valley and is under the care of Elder Cao Yushu. You don't have to worry."
When the name "Cao Yushu" was mentioned, Jingfeng keenly noticed that Long Shengna's eyelashes trembled, but her expression remained as usual.
"Well, thank you, Jingfeng." Long Shengna thanked her seriously, but for some reason, she still refused to look directly into Jingfeng's eyes and lowered her head slightly.
"The slave family has nothing to repay..."
The voice was melodious and sad, without finishing a sentence, almost inaudible.
Seeing that Long Shengna was not feeling right, Xie Xun and Xie Ping looked at each other. The former flipped his wrist, and a burst of energy suddenly covered Jingfeng's back.
Jingfeng never expected that something like this would happen, and he was pushed in front of Long Shengna without any precautions. He was afraid of bumping into Long Shengna, so he had no choice but to pull her into his arms.
"Huh……!"
Due to the suddenness of the incident, Long Shengna did not react for a moment. She was stunned for a moment, raised her pretty face and stared at Jingfeng in surprise.
Damn, how can I explain this?
Jingfeng was surprised and quickly calmed down, his brain thinking rapidly at this moment.
"I've really wronged you these days. Fortunately, it's all over..."
Out of the corner of his eye, he noticed Long Shengna's haggard face and the bruises that had not yet healed. Jingfeng felt this and comforted her softly.
Unexpectedly, after saying this, Long Shengna was stunned for a moment, and then her eyes immediately filled with mist, and crystal tears rolled down her cheeks like broken pearls.
Maybe she felt that her crying appearance was unsightly, so Long Shengna quickly lowered her head and turned into a faint whimper, her body shaking from time to time.
I'm afraid only Long Shengna herself knows how much hardship she has endured and how many grievances she has endured these days, but she perseveres and perseveres. After all, Long Shengna is just a weak woman. Now Jingfeng's words have made her lose heart and burst into tears. Even if she wants to restrain herself, she can't restrain it. Maybe venting those sad emotions will make her happy. Some.
"No...did I say something wrong? Don't cry..."
Jingfeng panicked all of a sudden and didn't know where to put his hands. Even Xie Ping and Xie Xun behind him didn't expect this kid to act like this.
"Hold her, hold her!"
Ouyang Lian hated to see girls cry, especially when he was at the City Lord's Mansion a few days ago, he also saw that Long Shengna had a crush on and dependence on Jingfeng, so he reminded him in a low voice behind him.
Having been trained by his mother since childhood, how could Jingfeng not understand women's hearts? What Long Shengna needed most right now was a hug, and it had better be from the person she likes. Jingfeng was having a fierce ideological struggle, and finally he was convinced and took Long Shengna into his arms.
"It's okay, as long as I'm here, no one will dare to bully you anymore."
Jingfeng said while caressing Long Shengna's back, trying to ease her sadness.
"In a few days, when you have recovered, how about I send you to Yaowang Valley to take care of Uncle Long first? As for the Qianlong Chamber of Commerce, Li Changsheng is dead, so Bi Heng probably won't be able to make any trouble. Sooner or later, one day We want to take back what belongs to us!”
Long Shengna didn't speak, but buried her head tighter.
"If you don't say anything, will I take it as your acquiescence?"
Feeling that the delicate body in his arms seemed to be more stable, Jingfeng deliberately teased her.
"I'm already like this, why can't you accommodate me more?"
At this moment, Long Shengna raised her head, opened her red lips, and stared at Jingfeng with some sadness.
"Brother Jingfeng is right. Without Li Changsheng as his backer, Bi Heng will be nothing more than a local chicken. When the time comes, my Xie family will also support you and your father."
Hearing Xie Ping's voice, Long Shengna realized that she had lost her composure just now. She gently pulled away from Jingfeng and said with some flatterment, "Little girl, thank you, Uncle Xie."
"It's just a trivial matter, it doesn't matter. The Qianlong Chamber of Commerce used to have a great reputation. If we can make friends through this, it will also be beneficial to my Xie family in the future."
Xie Ping said with a smile, perhaps not wanting to cause any psychological burden to Long Shengna.
When several people mentioned this, Ouyang Lian sounded familiar, so he asked: "Qianlong Chamber of Commerce...the Bi Heng you are talking about is a man who installed a prosthetic hand as a magical weapon?"
Jingfeng was surprised: "Uncle, how do you know?"
"When I came to Beikai City, I first went to the Qianlong Chamber of Commerce, but I didn't know that the Bi family had gained power. They knew that I was here to find you, so they tricked me into trying to harm me."
Ouyang Lian recalled what happened at that time and told the whole story.
Jingfeng was a little speechless, but felt inexplicably happy in his heart. Bi Heng couldn't see the depth of Ouyang Lian, so he might have suffered a big loss.
"Okay, little girl, let's put the matter in Beikai City aside for now and just listen to Jingfeng. I'll send you to Yaowang Valley in a few days. Your father knows that you are safe and sound, so he should be able to heal your wounds with peace of mind."
Xie Xun spoke at the right time and made a very pertinent suggestion.
Long Shengna looked at the kind smiles on the faces of everyone in front of her, her heart warmed, and she bowed deeply.
"The slave family would like to thank all the seniors for their kindness. My little girl will never forget it."
