Early the next morning, I had just gotten up and finished washing, and someone knocked on the door outside.
I was a little surprised that they never knocked on the door when they came in. Why were they so polite today? But I just responded and saw a tall man pushing the door and walking in.
I was stunned for a moment, but immediately remembered that the little girl was injured by me yesterday, and they were afraid that I would use any more tricks, so they would not let a girl with no power over here.
This man is probably at the same age as me, with an ordinary appearance, but his aura seems very calm. After he walked in, he nodded slightly at me before walking to the table with the food box.
Very kind.
This time, I also learned my lesson and stopped making trouble like before. Instead, I waited for him to put the food on the table, nodded at me, and then turned around and went out.
I walked to the table and the food was exactly the same as what I had served before, and it was quite sumptuous.
But instead of touching the food, I picked up a boiled egg and peeled it and started eating.
After eating one, I felt that it was still not enough, so I knocked the second one open. While I was eating, I heard a sound of footsteps from afar. As I looked up, I saw Han Zitong walking in from outside.
Her face was not very good-looking, and the corners of her eyes were still a little dark. It was probably the result of being busy all night last night. Last night until midnight, I could hear some busy sounds coming from afar. She suddenly decided to leave Xichuan, so naturally the people below had to stay busy, and she would definitely not be able to rest well.
So when I saw me, I felt a little angry.
She frowned and walked over, looked at the food on the table that I hadn't touched, and the boiled egg with sugar heart in her hand that I had bitten. She didn't say anything, but sat down on the edge of the table. I didn't say anything, and silently finished the egg. At this time, she raised her head and looked out the door. I also looked up and saw the man who had just delivered the food coming in again.
This time, he was holding a bowl of sweet soup in his hand.
At this time, I noticed this man again.
This small building was so quiet that I could almost capture many sounds in the entire mansion, and even talk about the sounds nearby, but when he appeared twice, I almost didn't hear his footsteps.
It seems that this person should be a martial arts master.
He came over and put the bowl of sweet soup in front of me. Before I could express anything, Han Zitong said, "Drink it."
I said, "I'm full."
"It's not to make you full."
“…”
I raised my eyebrows. It seemed that she didn't plan to play the trick of hiding me. What was placed in this bowl of sweet soup was self-evident. So I coughed lightly and said, "Are you so afraid that I will be awake?"
"I'm not afraid of you," she said coldly, "I'm just afraid that I will be unable to help myself and touch you."
“…”
"Drink it."
“…”
I was silent for a moment, looked down at the bowl of Qingyouyou sweet soup, then looked up at her, and said, "Han Zitong, are you sure you want to take me back to Jinling?"
“…”
She was stunned for a moment, as if she hadn't seen what I meant. I had already continued: "If I guessed correctly, it shouldn't be your sister waiting in Jinling now."
“…”
"Nangong Lizhu, isn't she in Jinling too?"
Nangong Lizhu - I said this name very plainly, and this sentence also very plainly, but Han Zitong seemed to be punched in the chest with a fierce punch. The expression on her face suddenly sank, and the pain appeared in her eyes without any concealment.
As soon as I saw her like this, my heart became even brighter.
So, I thought about it for a moment, then a faint smile appeared on the corner of my mouth, and I also spoke in a joking tone: "Your sister is afraid it's already very difficult to meet her. Are you sure, I want me to go and take another kick?"
“…”
"Can you imagine what it will be like then?"
“…”
"Have you really decided?"
As expected, my words made her face look ugly. I could almost hear her chewing teeth and making a sound. After a while of silence, she raised her head and glared at me: "You don't have to worry about these!"
“…”
"Yan Qingying, no matter what you say today, you must drink this bowl of soup for me. Don't cause trouble for yourself, and don't force us to do it."
“…”
"Drink it!"
I glanced at the man, and he stood in the room with his hands behind his back, his silent appearance giving people a strong sense of oppression. I have never seen this person before, but I also know that since Pei Yuanxiu had planned these things since early on, of course, the people around him would not let me see and control them all.
And I don't plan to cause trouble for myself.
So I raised my eyebrows, picked up the bowl of sweet soup, and drank it down.
It was cooked very well, and the sweetness was light and not greasy at all. If it weren't for some other things being put in it, drinking such a bowl of sweet soup would be a pleasure.
After I finished drinking, I put down the bowl and Han Zitong said to me again: "Open your mouth!"
“…”
I calmly opened my mouth and looked at her: "Ah--"
She leaned over and looked around, sure I didn't play any tricks, so she stood up with the table and said, "You can rest for a while."
After saying that, he walked out with the man.
When they closed the door, I slowly walked to the bed and sat down. After a while, a deep feeling of fatigue came, and my eyelids became a thousand pounds. I didn't struggle much and fell down.

I slept a little longer this time.
Even if I was completely unconscious, when I woke up again, I felt a sense of emptiness with my hands and feet numb and my whole body was exhausted, swaying as if I was floating in the water.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! There is still a very light sound of gurgling water in your ears.
This feeling is very familiar, and I also remembered it in the chaos. It seems that when I was rescued by Liu Saner, I was lying in his shaking small fishing boat. This is the same.
But this time, I'm afraid it's different.
When I opened my eyes, my mind came one step faster than the light. I recalled that after drinking the bowl of sweet soup from Han Zitong, I fell into a coma. A few more times later, they gave me some soups when I was about to wake up and couldn't resist. Every time I drank those soups, I would sleep for a long time. Now, I don't know where they took me.
It's not that I've arrived in Jinling, right?
Thinking of this, I frowned, stretched out my soft and weak hands, and slowly sat up with my body. I found myself lying on a small bed with no tent on it, so I could see clearly that I was in a small room, very narrow. Apart from the small bed under me and a table against the wall, there was nothing left.
here it is--
I frowned and looked at it, and at this moment, I felt the whole room shaking slightly. I grabbed the mattress under me with one hand, then looked up at the wooden wall on one side, and a small window that could hardly even reach out to the head of a person.
When I walked over and saw that the vague guess in my heart had become reality.
I'm on a boat.
Moreover, it was a ship that had set sail. The river water was slowly pushing the ship forward slowly. At this time, the sun was already setting, and the orange-red sunlight shone on the river surface, and the rippling waves seemed to have been ignited. The flames of a river made me feel a little dazed for a moment.
The green mountains on both sides of the straits kept moving backwards in sight, and the shadows reflected in the river were also disturbed by the hull's waves, which was quite touching.
Obviously, my body was already very weak at this time, and even after standing for a short while, cold sweat kept popping out of my forehead. Instead, I chuckled, especially when I felt the water flow was getting faster and faster, I also sent the ship forward.
I left Baidi among the colorful clouds in the morning and returned thousands of miles of Jiangling in one day.
I don’t know if the poems of the ancients will come true at this time.
Just as I was ecstatic about the scenery outside, the door was opened.
The wooden door seemed to have not been used for a long time, and when it opened, it made a harsh creaking sound. I frowned slightly. When I looked back, I saw Han Zitong standing at the door. She saw that I had woken up and looked out of the window frame. She also frowned, but immediately walked in and said, "Are you awake?"
"Um."
She glanced at me again and sat down at the table.
I held the window frame and barely stood firm. I looked at the door again. No one was going to follow me and then looked at her: "Why, won't I get medicine this time?"
Maybe she didn't do this kind of thing well enough. She slightly sank her face, but she still said with a stubborn cold face: "I've gotten on the boat, and I'm not afraid of you playing any tricks."
I endured my body's weakness and smiled, "Not necessarily."
She looked up at me.
I said, "I think Pei Yuanxiu must have said hello to you. I am very cunning. Even if I give me a crack in the ground, I can escape. Otherwise, you won't have to give me medicine every day these days."
“…”
"I think you'd better put a pair of shackles on me and lock me up so that you won't be afraid of me running away."
She blushed with anger and slapped the table hard: "Yan Qingying, don't think I'm really afraid of you. I just don't want to cause trouble for myself! Just because of your current appearance, let alone a pair of shackles, I can tie you up with a thread!"
