When Lin Wanwan woke up again, what came into view was a little girl with a maid's bun. Her face was pink and tender, and she was looking at her with big eyes.
She vaguely remembered that the night she arrived at Nanling City, she was ambushed by Longyang Peak in the Blood Clothes Pavilion, and was later rescued by a young man in black robes. She lay here as soon as she woke up.
After questioning, I learned from the maid that she was now in the backyard of Xuanji Tower in Nanling City. It was the young man in black robe who saved her from Long Yangfeng's knife that night who brought her back. The maid called him "Young Master". ".
Lin Wanwan had naturally heard of the famous Xuanji Tower in Nanling City. Apart from these, the maid kept silent and said that she would see the young master after she recovered from her injuries.
She probably understood the whole story in her mind, so she didn't ask any more questions and just nursed her injuries here peacefully.
While she was recuperating, she found that the backyard was very quiet. She hardly saw anyone else except the maid who served her.
According to the maid, this backyard is the residence of the oiran of Xuanji Tower. The guards here are extremely tight. No one is allowed to enter at will on weekdays. Multiple guards are set up at the entrance to prevent people who do not understand the rules from intruding.
Lin Wanwan laughed it off. She knew very well that she had never seen an oiran in her long life.
Xuanji Tower indeed has a hidden secret.
After resting for more than half a month, Lin Wanwan's injury was basically healed.
Early that morning, as soon as she had washed and dressed, she saw the maid running into the room, smiling and saying to her: "Girl, the master wants you to see him."
An imperceptible smile crossed Lin Wanwan's lips, and there seemed to be a cunning illusion.
It seemed it was time to meet her savior.
"Take me there."
The maid took Lin Wanwan to the courtyard, and saw a young man in black standing straight in the courtyard. He was tall, with sharp eyebrows and starry eyes. He was a good-looking person.
The maid whispered in Lin Wanwan's ear and introduced: "Girl, this is Mr. Ziyu. Like Mr. Zishu and Mr. Ziheng, he is someone close to him."
When the man in black saw Lin Wanwan, a flash of surprise flashed in his eyes, and then he cupped his hands and said, "Girl, the master asked me to take you up."
Lin Wanwan nodded slightly to him, "Thank you."
At this time, Zi Shu was standing in the study room on the fourth floor of Xuanji Building with his head lowered and his eyebrows lowered. A black figure stood by the window with his hands behind his back. His tall and tall figure covered the rising sun peeking out of the clouds outside the window, and strands of gold outlined his perfect figure. contour.
"Master, all the hiding spots in Xijing Blood Clothes Pavilion have been cleared."
"Very good." The young man in Xuanpao looked at the beautiful morning glow outside the window with a faint smile in his eyes, "This gift is really a bit unbearable."
He paused, and there was a rare hint of interest in his beautiful peach blossom eyes, "But this Nanling City is getting more and more lively."
There was a sound of footsteps, Zi Shu saluted the young man, jumped up and disappeared into the room.
"Master, the girl is here." Ziyu bowed to the young man in black robes, and then stood aside consciously.
Lin Wanwan followed Ziyu into the room. Her smart eyes quickly scanned the room, and finally her eyes fell on the black figure by the window. She rolled her eyes, casually made up a name, and said to him:
"Little girl Yue Wan, thank you so much for saving me that night. Do you know your surname?"
The young man in black robe slowly turned around. The morning light outside the window filtered through the mist from his side, mixed with the morning dew, and shone brightly into her eyes. She couldn't help but sway.
He smiled strangely at her, his smile was polite and courteous, "You're welcome, girl. My surname is Su, and my courtesy name is Jingqian. I am the owner of Xuanji Building."
"It turns out to be Mr. Su." Lin Wanwan nodded and smiled brightly at him.
The dim morning light that filled the room gradually became brighter.
Su Jingqian's pupils flashed almost invisible, he glanced around her lightly, and said with concern: "Is the girl's injury feeling better?"
Lin Wanwan quickly blessed herself and said gratefully, "Thank you for taking care of me during this time, sir. Yue Wan's injury is no longer serious."
"Who has the girl offended? Why is she being chased by the Blood Clothes Pavilion? It seems that the girl is good at martial arts. I wonder what sect she is from?"
Lin Wanwan's mind was racing rapidly. Her hands hidden in her sleeves pinched her thighs hard, and her eyes suddenly turned watery. Her eyes were so clear that I felt pity for her.
"I have never offended others, and I don't know who asked them to hunt me down that day. Yue Wan has no father or mother since she was a child. She once met an expert. Fortunately, he gave him some advice, and she learned some martial arts."
Su Jingqian saw her little moves clearly. The look in his eyes changed several times, from shock to disbelief to speechlessness. The moment she was about to find out, he regained his composure. He nodded without changing his expression, " I see."
Lin Wanwan stole a glance at Su Jingqian and saw that his face was calm. It seemed that he did not think about the truth or falsehood of her words. She immediately said: "Thanks to the great kindness of the young master, I can survive by chance. I wonder if the young master is willing to take him in." Yue Wan, let Yue Wan stay to repay Young Master for saving his life?"
A smile quickly flashed across Su Jingqian's beautiful peach blossom eyes. He walked up to Lin Wanwan unhurriedly, put his hands behind his back and slowly leaned down, "As the saying goes, a life-saving grace should be given to you." I have pledged myself to you, but I wonder how Miss Yue Wan should repay her?"
His voice was as melodious as the guqin, and he was breathing into Lin Wanwan's ears with a playful smile, and his posture was extremely ambiguous.
The pleasant smell of white sandalwood on the man's body made her ears feel warm. She was stunned for a moment by Su Jingqian's sudden change of attitude. After she came to her senses, facing this man's frivolous and ridiculing words and deeds, she suppressed the excitement in her heart. Angry, he took a big step back and took a deep breath.
"Yue Wan is willing to sacrifice her life for the young master."
"Oh?" Su Jingqian straightened his back, raised his eyebrows slightly, with an expression as if he was watching a show, "How are you going to sacrifice your life for me, Miss Yue Wan?"
Lin Wanwan lowered her eyes to cover up the flames that were about to erupt from her eyes. She tightened her curled fingers on the side of her tights and said calmly: "Yue Wan knew that the young master was not an ordinary person. That night, all the men in black behind the young master were With extraordinary skills, he is definitely not as simple as an ordinary guard."
She didn't know that in Su Jingqian's eyes, she looked like a kitten whose tail was stepped on but didn't dare to speak out. There was a faint smile in his eyes, and he looked at her with interest for a long time. , then said: "So?"
"So since the young master is willing to show up and then bring me back, I think Yuewan will be useful to the young master."
Su Jingqian heard the meaning behind her words - you didn't kill me to silence me, you must have kept me useful.
He didn't answer, walked behind the desk, sat down with his clothes in his arms, his expression was lazy, and when his intoxicating peach blossom eyes looked over, he seemed to be smiling but not smiling, making it difficult for her to discern the deeper meaning.
"Perhaps the girl has misunderstood. I just happened to pass by that day, and the road was rough."
Hearing Su Jingqian's calm denial, she frowned slightly, and her voice unconsciously raised a few points, sounding slightly annoyed, "It seems that the young master has never heard of the story of repaying kindness with hatred. Such a generous gesture When I leave, aren't you afraid that I will leak the secret of your Xuanji Tower?"
