The night was bright…
A crescent moon hung high in the night sky, its halo gentle. The stars fell around it irregularly, bright or dark, like thousands of blinking eyes.
Under the moonlight, the trees swayed in the wind, and the road was mottled. In the flower bed, roses, butterfly orchids, and hyacinths were in full bloom. The silver moonlight shone down, as if it draped them in a beautiful dress…
Leng Wanwan's residence had been moved from the secluded northern courtyard to the main courtyard of the general's father. The nanny was still resting outside her room. However, from today onwards, Ye Chen would also take up the role of her guardian. Although she didn't need it at all, he had nothing to do anyway. She might as well find something to do with him so that he wouldn't use his purple eyes to seduce people everywhere. After thinking about it, she arranged for him to stay next door.
With a flick of her soft fingers, the dim candlelight was extinguished. She put down the bed and the moonlight shone through the window. The room was still bright.
Perhaps it was because she was too tired during the day, Leng Wanwan unknowingly fell asleep.
At the same time, a black figure climbed over the wall in the backyard of the General's Estate. Under the moonlight, his figure was tall and slender. Strong as a rabbit. He was dressed in a night-traveling suit and his face was covered by a black scarf, revealing only a pair of cold black eyes. He dodged the patrolling guards and flew to the roof. He followed the roof and quickly made his way to the main courtyard. When he reached the main courtyard, he crouched on the roof. As he watched the candlelight in the room go out, a dim light flashed across his cold eyes. He held his breath and waited quietly.
It was late at night. Everything was silent, and only the chirping of unknown insects could be heard.
The black figure finally moved. His figure was as light as a swallow. It flew down from the roof and silently stuck itself to the window of the house. He licked his saliva and poked the paper window open. His eyes moved closer to Kong Xi to observe the movements in the room. Satisfied to see that the room was quiet, he pulled out his knife and pushed the door open. The figure gently circled around the outer room and walked towards the inner room. The black shadow swayed on the bed, and his hand quickly lifted the bed. The large knife flashed coldly and suddenly slashed at the person on the bed.
Leng Wanwan only felt a light flickering and her black eyes suddenly opened. Cold light shot out, and the cold air was oppressive.
The black figure was stunned. He did not expect the other party to be so vigilant. He was also frightened by the coldness in the little girl's eyes, and the knife in his hand suddenly tilted to the side, losing its aim.
Leng Wanwan saw the situation and quickly rolled inside, dodging the knife.
"Who are you?" She looked coldly at the man in black.
“……”
The man in black did not say a word. He quickly waved his knife and continued to slash at her.
Leng Wanwan was furious. She rolled around and dodged the men in black's attacks time and time again.
Dong---
The man in black's knife fell on the edge of the bed, making a sound.
"Miss, what's wrong?" Nanny walked in vaguely and asked.
"Nanny." Leng Wanwan was shocked, but she saw that the man in black had already swung his knife at the nanny.
"Ah!"
A cold light flashed as the moonlight shone in. The nanny saw the big knife coming at her and shouted in panic.
"Dang-"
Ye Chen's figure appeared in front of Nanny after blocking the broadsword.
"Who are you?"
Yechen's purple eyes shone with the moonlight. His gaze was deep and mysterious. Ever since he was captured and enslaved, his sleep had always been shallow. As soon as he heard Nanny's scream, he knew that something had happened.
" Yechen, catch him."
Leng Wanwan looked at him. This person should be an assassin. The killer's rule was never to reveal the buyer. It would probably take a lot of effort to ask the mastermind.
When Ye Chen heard this, he pushed Nanny out of danger. With a sword in his right hand, he quickly approached the man in black.
The man in black looked at the young boy with disdain in his cold eyes. How capable could such a thin and weak boy be? The key was the target behind him. Although he looked like an innocent child who didn't know anything about the world. However, the viciousness and coldness in her eyes made even him, a person whose hands were stained with blood, feel fear.
Under the rays of moonlight, the shadows of swords and sabers added to the strangeness.
"What's wrong? What's wrong?"
Footsteps came from outside. The patrolling guards heard the nanny's cry and rushed over.
The man in black's eyes darkened. He was afraid that he would not be able to complete the mission tonight. The broadsword no longer hesitated. With a flash of cold light, it slashed Ye Chen's arm.
When--
Ye Chen's sword fell to the ground and he dodged. He stroked his injured right arm with his left hand. The blood was like a poisonous flower blooming in the dark night, enchanting.
The man in black took advantage of Ye Chen's movement and dashed out of the room.
Ye Chen covered his arm and wanted to chase after her.
"Stop chasing." Leng Wanwan shouted. If they wanted to chase after him, how could the black clothed man escape? She was lost in thought as she looked in the direction the man in black had left. She already knew who the mastermind was. Other than her, who else had the ability to hire an assassin to assassinate her? Hmph, a cold light flashed in his dark eyes. Why was he so eager to get rid of her? Was he afraid of taking everything away from her? Or was he afraid of revenge?
"Miss knows who it is." Ye Chen did not miss the emotions in Leng Wanwan's eyes and said with certainty.
"Not bad." Leng Wanwan looked at him with admiration. She had indeed not misjudged him. He was indeed shrewd.
"Miss, are you alright?" Nanny couldn't understand what they were talking about. She threw herself at Leng Wanwan's bedside and kept touching Leng Wanwan's small body with both hands, afraid that she had some wound.
"I'm fine, Nanny." Leng Wanwan looked at Nanny's worried actions, and her cold eyes became warm.
"It's good that you're fine. It's good that you're fine." Nanny nodded and turned around to find that Ye Chen was injured. "Little Chen, how are you?" She hurriedly took out a snow-white handkerchief and was about to bandage him.
"Miss Wan Wan, what happened?”The leader of the guards stood outside the room with his subordinates and asked loudly. This Miss Wan Wan was now the little master of the General's Estate. Nothing could go wrong. Otherwise, the General would not forgive him.
"I'm fine." Leng Wanwan stopped Nanny who was about to speak." It's just a little thief who ran over. He has been chased away by my guards.”
"What is it? A thief entered the residence?" The guard captain was shocked. This General Manor was considered heavily guarded. There was actually a small thief running into the manor to cause trouble. It seemed that they had to strengthen their defenses. "Then this subordinate will bring people to search again and see if that thief is still hiding in the residence.”
"Yes." Leng Wanwan replied," You guys go ahead."”
"This subordinate will take his leave."
The sound of footsteps faded away, and the courtyard returned to silence.
"Miss, why didn't you tell them that someone wanted to kill you?”After a long time, Nanny's puzzled voice was heard. The thought of someone trying to harm the young miss made her heart beat wildly. Fortunately, that person did not succeed. If he really hurt Miss, what should he do?
"Nanny, am I alright?" Leng Wanwan smiled." Go and rest first. I still have something to talk to Yechen.”
"But-"
"Don't worry, no one can hurt me.”Leng Wanwan's eyes sparkled. The confidence that she had made her believe that no one could hurt her Miss.
After the nanny left, Leng Wanwan's eyes became cold again.
"Come here."
Although Ye Chen didn't know what she was going to do, he still walked up to her obediently.
"Hands, let go." Leng Wanwan pointed at his left hand that was covering his injured arm.
Ye Chen let go of his left arm. Blood was still flowing from the wound on his right arm. It was like a fountain of blood spurting out, dyeing his white clothes red.
Leng Wanwan furrowed her brows and stretched out her soft little finger to place it on his wound. A moment later, he stopped. "Alright."
Ye Chen looked at his perfectly fine arm, which seemed to have never been injured before, and was stunned. How, how did she do it? Or was she really like the rumors in the residence that she knew demonic spells and was a demoness? He guessed in his heart.
"Don't think too much." Leng Wanwan glared at him." The fact that you're injured means that you're too weak. Looks like I still have to train."
Ye Chen couldn't help but clench his fists when Leng Wanwan called him weak. However, it was a fact that he was defeated by a man in black. He was unwilling to accept it. He wanted to become strong and not be bullied by anyone. His purple eyes flashed with determination. He wanted to be strong.
Leng Wanwan looked at the thoughts in his eyes and thought about the assassin tonight. Perhaps she would encounter more of such things in the future. She was naturally not worried, but she was afraid that the enemy would hurt Nanny. Perhaps it was time for him to build a strong backing to protect the people he wanted to protect.
I'll give you six years." Leng Wanwan looked at Ye Chen and said," In these six years, no matter what method you use, you must make yourself stronger. Only then will you be qualified to stand by my side.”
"Alright." Ye Chen looked at Leng Wanwan and nodded vigorously." I definitely won't let you down.”
"I look forward to you becoming stronger in six years.”Leng Wanwan's black gem-like eyes sparkled. "Tomorrow, you will set off. I will prepare silver for you.”
"Alright."
With a reply, the young man and the girl made their promise.
Outside the window, the moon was bright and the trees swayed. They witnessed this moment at the same time.
