Seeing me shirking again and again, but I was so sleepy that I couldn't even open my eyes, Aunt Hong finally said angrily: "Miss, why don't you let Aunt Hong worry so much? Look at you, every time I come back, I make myself so embarrassed, I can't sleep well, and eat well. Can my wife feel at ease when she sees you like this?!"
She has always been respectful to me, but after all, she watched me grow up. When I took out the money from my elders, I didn't dare to say anything.
I looked at her carefully: "Aunt Hong..."
She scolded me, but her eyes turned red, and she said, "How can we rest assured if you can't take care of yourself so much?"
When the maids next to me saw her scolding me, they were so angry that they dared not breathe. I thought about it, helped her to sit down on the corridor on the side, and said softly: "Aunt Hong scolded me, I knew I was wrong."
When she heard me say this, her eyes turned redder: "Miss..."
“…”
"We just hope that the eldest lady can be fine and stop suffering."
"Actually, I'm really fine and haven't suffered much."
Hearing that I almost coaxed her, Aunt Hong couldn't help glaring at me, wiped her eyes, and said, "Why did Miss come back alone this time?"
I was stunned.
She said, "I heard that Mr. Liu - he has been much better, and he has specially gone to the capital to pick up the young lady? The news that was sent back before also said that he accompanied the young lady to the academy. Why didn't he accompany the young lady back to Chengdu this time?"
I sighed and said, "This is what I want Aunt Hong to do for me."
"What?"
"I want you to send someone to search everywhere in the city to find out his whereabouts."
"What, he-he was taken away? Or is there any danger?"
"No, no, he has something he wants to do and doesn't want to go with me, so he left first."
“…”
Aunt Hong's brows immediately frowned. She was such a transparent person. She immediately heard something was wrong from my words. She thought for a while and asked again: "What will happen after finding him? Bring him to see the eldest lady?"
"No, don't!" As soon as I thought of what Wei Yang said to me, I quickly waved my hand: "If I find him--I don't have to do anything. Come back and tell me, just do it."
This time, Aunt Hong didn't say anything.
At this moment, Yan Qingchen's voice sounded next to him: "Why, did he feel wronged for you?"
When he turned around, he saw that he had arrived here at some point. He heard what we said, his face was cold and cold.
Aunt Hong hurriedly stood up: "Head of the family."
He held his hands on the armrests, and the wheelchair slowly walked over. Without looking at people, he ordered: "You guys go down first."
Aunt Hong didn't dare to say a word, so she waved her hand immediately. Several maids around her turned and left with her. I sat in the corridor and saw Yan Qingchen's eyebrows twisting into a knot. Although he was in poor health and was carrying a heavy burden, no one or more people could make him show such a heavy expression.
He asked again: "Have he suffered aggrievance for you?"
I shook my head: "No."
"No? Why is that sister so cautious about him, and why does he leave you?"
When he said these words, a little cold murderous intent appeared on his pale and thin face.
I know that Yan Qingchen rarely has murderous intentions to others. Most of the time, he will not see blood when he kills people, but once he sees blood, it will be extremely tragic and there is no room for recovery. I hurriedly said, "This is a matter between me and him. Don't worry, he did not give me a grievance."
“…”
"I was the one who made him wronged."
Yan Qingchen looked at me for a while and said in a calm voice: "No matter who my sister is with, as long as it is my sister's business, it is mine."
“…”
"I said I wanted to be a businessman in Xichuan. This matter never conflicts with my protection of my sister. If someone really complains to you, I will have to ask for it, no matter who that person is!"
When I heard his last words, my heart suddenly jumped.
What he said seemed to be as simple as the Qinghan we are talking about now.
I said hoarsely: "Qingchen!"
He looked at me, blinked his eyes, and said, "Sister, don't be so afraid. I know very well what to do or what not to do."
I hung half of the center in one breath. After all, the situation is at its most critical moment, and I really can't afford to take any mistakes. I was silent for a while before I whispered: "I know you have always been very calm. You have been guarding Xichuan for so many years, and no one hopes that this place will be better than you. But, the current situation does not allow us to be cautious."
He said, "I know."
Only then did I take a breath.
But he looked up at me again and said slowly: "But sister must also understand that no matter what happens, sister must be fine. In the past, I hope to keep my sister by my side, forever - stay by my side."
My face turned pale.
But his eyes softened when he looked at me, and he couldn't help but stretch out and gently covered the back of my hand. This time I was about to pull out my hand immediately, but he held my hand tightly and said calmly: "Sister, don't be afraid of me."
“…”
"I said that I am the only one in this world who will never hurt my sister."
“…”
"Although I want to keep my sister by my side forever, I also know that if that happens, there will probably never be a smile on my sister's face."
“…”
"And that is the last thing I want to see."
Although he promised that way, after hearing what he said, I still couldn't help but tremble. After a while, I reluctantly said, "Then, what do you want to see?"
"I don't want much," he smiled slightly: "Sister and Nishikawa are the only ones I will care about."
I said, "What do you mean by saying that Nishikawa is facing a huge crisis? You have never told me, is it the current situation? The relationship between Nishikawa and the court?"
He looked at me for a while, and his eyes slowly calmed down, without even a trace of emotion. He just smiled and said, "Sister, don't ask more, I can handle this matter alone."
“…”
"I don't need to interfere in the peace talks between Nishikawa and the court."
Don't I interfere?
I frowned: "Then I--"
He suddenly said, "Don't my sister want to find Liu Qinghan? I will send an order to ask them to find him. Even if I turn Chengdu over, I will find him."
“…”
