The moonlight was bright and bright, illuminating the earth…
The insects in the night screamed, and the flowers swayed.
Leng Wanwan sat quietly. Her petite body didn't move at all. There was no expression on her face, and her black gem-like eyes were faint. She saw the bright moonlight outside through the window.
Although her tone towards Xuanyuan Zhou was still cold, only she understood. After realizing that his side profile was similar to her father's, she could no longer ignore him. It was not a matter of empathy. The kindness that Xuanyuan Zhou showed her always made her involuntarily think of her father, who was arrogant in front of outsiders but doted on her in every way. Before they parted ways, she had never thought from her father's point of view. She was willful and reckless, wantonly sprinkling the love he had given her. But now, he only knew how to cherish it after they parted ways. Unfortunately, he no longer had the chance. Perhaps Xuanyuan Zhou's appearance was to make up for the regret in her heart. She wanted to return to the time when her mother was still around and act coquettishly in front of her parents, to be an innocent child...
"Miss, it's late at night. You should go and rest.”Seeing that Leng Wanwan had not returned to her room for a long time, Nanny could not help but come to the front hall to look for her. However, when she saw Leng Wanwan's lonely expression, she could not help but feel her heart ache.
"Nanny." Leng Wanwan looked at Nanny who had been treating her seriously ever since she came here. A sincere smile appeared on her pink face. Perhaps at first, she thought that she was long-winded and liked to cry, but as they spent more time together, she felt that she was a little too talkative. Nanny's long-windedness made her feel warm. The feeling of being cared for seemed to have returned to when his mother was still around. He could not help but treat Nanny as a family member.
"You child." Nanny looked at Leng Wanwan's rare innocent look and her heart softened. "Hurry back to your room."
"Yes." Leng Wanwan nodded, jumped off the chair, and walked to the main courtyard next to the nanny.
The bright moon smiled faintly above their heads. The moonlight was gentle. The two of them looked warm on the path in the courtyard, which was covered with flowers and trees. The moonlight elongated their shadows.
"Someone, someone!"
A mournful cry tore through the night sky, tearing apart this warm scene.
"What's wrong?"
"What happened?"
The patrolling guards rushed over from the other side. Under the moonlight, they looked nervous. Please don't let anything happen to them again. They will be severely punished by the general.
"It seems to be coming from the young miss.”
Nanny frowned and thought for a moment, then said nervously to Leng Wanwan.
Leng Wanwan's back was facing the moonlight, her expression shrouded in shadows. She recalled the reason why Xuanyuan Zhou had come tonight. Could it be that the group of thieves had broken into the General's Estate? His cold gaze swept across the guards who were rushing towards him. What were these guys doing?
The guards became even more nervous after being glared at by Leng Wanwan. She wished she could find a hole to hide in. Third Miss was even more terrifying than the general.
"What are you waiting for? Why aren't you going over to take a look?!”
Leng Wanwan said coldly. Her petite body emitted a supreme majesty.
"Yes, yes." The guard captain nodded his head vigorously and led the people to Leng Yue 'er's courtyard.
The sudden cry woke up many servants who had just fallen asleep. They hurriedly put on their clothes and ran out while rubbing their eyes.
"All of you, go back." Leng Wanwan's gaze made the servants shrink back.
"Nanny, I'll go and take a look too. Go back to your room first." Leng Wanwan said to the anxious nanny.
"Alright." Nanny nodded. She couldn't help, and it would be a burden if she went. "Miss, you have to be careful.”Worry flashed in her eyes.
"Yes, I understand." Leng Wanwan nodded and waited for the nanny to turn around and leave. She lifted her body and flew towards Leng Yue 'er like a flying swallow.
"What happened?" When Leng Wanwan's petite figure landed in the courtyard, she saw Qiu Tang's clothes and hair in a mess. She looked like she had been taken advantage of. Beside her, Leng Yue 'er's watery eyes were filled with tears. She looked touched and anxious. The two of them stood nervously by the pillar and looked at the people in the courtyard.
The guards who had arrived first all drew their sabers and pointed them at him, their sabers glinting with a cold light. They were surrounded by two men in black. The men in black were masked and had a medium build. Their faces could not be seen clearly. The two teams were frozen.
Leng Wanwan's appearance broke the stalemate. Leng Yue 'er seemed to have seen her savior and shouted at her,
"Third Sister, these two are rapists. They want to kidnap Qiu Tang and me.”Thinking about the scene just now, she could not help but tremble. If Qiu Tang hadn't struggled desperately and shouted for help, they would have been destroyed.
"Tsk, what's there to be afraid of a little girl?”When the taller man in black saw Leng Wanwan, the corners of his mouth curled up as he mocked her disdainfully.
"Fourth brother, this girl looks extraordinary. In the future, she will definitely be a beauty that can topple a country. Why don't we take her along with us?”The other black-clothed man sized up Leng Wanwan with his eyes that were only exposed and said with ill intentions.
"How dare you." When the guard captain heard the two thieves 'words, he shouted," Where did these thieves come from to cause trouble at the General's Estate?”
"Tsk. What is the General's Estate? I dare to go to the Imperial Palace.”The man in black sneered disdainfully." Besides, we can come and go as we please in your so-called General's Estate.”His tone was arrogant and did not put them in his eyes at all.
"You-"
The guards were so angry that their faces turned green and red, but they were unable to refute. Six years ago, Leng Wanwan was almost assassinated, and now this group of people had come to the General's Estate to kidnap people. Wasn't this just stepping on their faces? They still had the face to see people.
"Boss, let's not waste our breath on them. Just take them down."
The guards were originally men from the barracks, so they had never suffered such humiliation. They only felt their blood rush up their chests as they stared fiercely at the two men in black with bull-like eyes.
"Alright, I…"
"Leave." Before the guard captain could finish his words, Leng Wanwan interrupted him coldly.
" Third Miss?!" The guards looked at her in confusion.
"Fourth Brother, do you think there's something strange about this girl?”The skinny man in black saw that the girl was not afraid of them. Instead, she exuded a cold aura. He could not help but lower his voice and whisper to his companions. They could not have underestimated this girl, right?
"What's strange?" The tall thief snorted coldly." Isn't she just a young lady from a rich family? She's used to being domineering. Only this group of good-for-nothings would be afraid of her. Us brothers are not like that.”It was just that the atmosphere was a little dignified.
"Third Sister?" Leng Yue 'er looked at Leng Wanwan worriedly. She really couldn't see through what she was thinking at the moment. Beside her, Qiu Tang's gaze was a little blurry, as if she had not woken up from her fear.
Leng Wanwan glanced at Leng Yue 'er, her cold gaze like an arrow. Leng Yue 'er didn't say anything else, but her expression was still anxious.
The bright moonlight illuminated Leng Wanwan's expression clearly, and her pink face seemed to be covered in a layer of mist. Her black gem-like eyes seemed to contain a thousand-year-old ice cube, freezing one's heart.
The two arrogant thieves couldn't help but shiver. They looked at each other and saw the same fear in each other's eyes. This girl was probably a real expert.
The tall thief gestured at the other man in black with his thumb. The thin thief's eyes flashed. Understanding the meaning of the tall man, he rushed towards Leng Yue 'er.
"Young Miss-"
The guard was shocked. Were these two going to use Leng Yue 'er as a hostage?
Before they could react, another petite figure that was even faster had already dashed out like lightning. With a bang, the skinny thief suddenly fell to the ground.
"You-"
The thin thief fell to the ground weakly, his black eyes wide open like a cow's. He stared in disbelief at the little girl who had knocked him down with one palm. How was this possible? How could he be defeated by a girl in one move?!
"Sixth brother." The tall man in black cried out in alarm. His eyes were filled with intense hatred as he glared at Leng Wanwan. With a flash, he struck out both palms at her fiercely.
The corners of Leng Wanwan's mouth curled up slightly as she stood there motionlessly. The wind from the palm pressed towards her, and the guards and Leng Yue 'er were so frightened that they broke out in a cold sweat.
"Third Miss!"
"Third Sister!"
Leng Wanwan didn't hear their anxious shouts, her clear eyes staring straight at the tall man. It was cold, but there was an unprecedented pressure. The tall thief seemed to be affected. His eyes were slightly absent-minded, and his palms tilted to the left. Right at this moment, Leng Wanwan flicked her finger lightly and the acupuncture point of the tall man was sealed soundlessly.
His posture froze as he glared at Leng Wanwan with hatred. However, his heart was filled with fear. He did not expect this little girl to be so skilled. It seemed that they were doomed this time.
Seeing the tall thief's fierce attacks, he thought that there would be a fierce battle. They didn't expect it to end so easily. The guards and Leng Yue 'er were a little stunned. After a long time, they couldn't react. The night wind blew and they jumped. After waking up, he looked at Leng Wanwan with respect.
"This is the legendary acupuncture point.”
The guard captain suddenly sighed, causing the guards to look at Leng Wanwan with even more reverence.
Although Leng Yue 'er didn't know what it meant to strike acupoints from afar, she could tell from the guards' expressions that it was a very powerful technique. Her watery eyes looked at Leng Wanwan with a complicated expression. When did this child, who was once considered weak and unloved, become so powerful? Her aura and her skills seemed to be a completely different person, completely different from the Leng Wanwan from before…
