"It's not all my credit. Everyone has a share in the investigation.”Shangguan Yahan smiled, but Shangguan Qingcang's words made her very happy, from the bottom of her heart.
Now that the case was closed and Hu Zhongbao was executed, he could finally breathe a sigh of relief.
"Oh right, let's go and see the two children of the old man's family. They're almost fully recovered. Let's send them home in the afternoon…But they don't have a family, no one to take care of them, and we can't contact their parents.”Shangguan Yahan's delicate little face was covered with a layer of haze, her voice weak and carrying a sigh.
"It's okay. We can ask the neighbors to help take care of them first. It'll be fine when their parents come back. In the future, we can visit them often when we have time.”Shangguan Qingcang comforted her softly. He stopped in his tracks, put his hands on her shoulders, and looked at her deeply.
"What's wrong? Why are you looking at me like that?" Shangguan Yahan was a little scared by his stare, wondering if he was going to kiss her again.
"Nothing, I just realized that…I seem to like you more and more.”His tone was as soft as cotton candy, and it was sweet to Shangguan Yahan's ears.
"I know. Let's go back quickly. We still have to send the siblings home.”Shangguan Yahan's lips curled up slightly, her eyes curved into a smile. She gently knocked on his chest, breaking free from his grasp as she hopped back.
The old man's granddaughter, Xiao Xian, had been unconscious since she was rescued yesterday. She only opened her eyes in the morning when the constables of the Six Fan School brought her new clothes. After changing into them, Shangguan Yahan nodded in her heart. She was indeed a little beauty. No wonder Hu Zhongbao was lustful.
The younger brother Xiao Zhuang also woke up. When the two of them saw Shangguan Yahan, they knelt on the ground and kowtowed to her.
Shangguan Yahan had no choice but to help them up and smiled,"Alright, big brother and big sister will send you home."”
There was always a family in Xiao Xian's village who took good care of the siblings and often brought them food.
Now that the siblings 'families weren't around, Shangguan Yahan decided to send them to the villager's house. She didn't feel at ease with anyone else.
When they arrived at the villager's house, they were naturally warmly welcomed by the owner. The couple happily agreed to take care of the siblings.
Before Shangguan Yahan left, she left behind ten taels of silver and told them to buy more delicious food for the two children to nourish them. In the future, she would come over every month to give them money.
On the way back, Shangguan Yahan made a decision.
Her Lotus Fragrance Residence…was no longer hers. It was Sage Ye's Lotus Fragrance Residence, and she still had a lot of money inside. Leng Yihan left her a lot of money when he left, but she didn't need it, and Sage Ye didn't need it either. It would be a waste to leave it there, so she decided to use it for charity.
She got off work early today and went home in the evening. When she went back, Han Zimo and Situ Yue were also there. She immediately looked for Nian Yourui, but she didn't see her.
"You're back so early today." Situ Yue said with a smile.
Shangguan Yahan also smiled and pulled Han Zimo aside to whisper," Zimo, you and Yourui…are you two serious?”
"She told you?" Han Zimo frowned.
This wretched girl, how could she say anything? How thick-skinned.
"Do you still need to say it? Even a fool can tell." Shangguan Yahan also frowned.
Did he want to have an underground relationship?
"Yahan, it's not what you think. I don't like her.”Han Zimo shut his mouth abruptly.
He almost said what he was thinking just now.
But even if she had nothing to do with Sage Ye anymore, he was still not in a position to say his true thoughts, right? He also knew that Sage Ye would bring her back sooner or later.
"What is it? You don't like her? You don't like it when you do that to her? Han Zimo, are you still human? I promised Brother Han that I would take good care of Yourui. How am I supposed to explain this to Brother Han?”The fire in Shangguan Yahan's heart surged, and she jumped up and hit the back of Han Zimo's head.
Situ Yue was still curious about what the two of them were talking about, but Shangguan Yahan's voice suddenly became louder. He immediately stood up and walked over," What happened?”
Shangguan Yahan's chest was heaving up and down, and her eyes were burning with anger. She raised her hand and pinched Han Zimo's ear. Hearing Han Zimo's cries of pain, she felt a little better. She let go and continued to argue with Situ Yue,"Brother Tianyue, why didn't you persuade him?" He harmed a virgin girl…Hmm.”
Han Zimo's movements were swift and fierce, and his large palm almost covered Shangguan Yahan's entire face. He looked at Situ Yue and laughed awkwardly.
Situ Yue was shocked and his calm face twitched." Zimo, you…Yahan is telling the truth?”
Shangguan Yahan elbowed Han Zimo's ribs, and Han Zimo immediately let go of her. She turned around and kicked Han Zimo's calf," Good job, you hid it quite well. What's the use of being even tighter?" Don't forget, I'm the best female constable in the world. I don't care. I'll give you ten days to prepare. The house, car, and money are not allowed to be missing. After ten days, you must marry Yourui. Otherwise, I'll sentence you to death.”
"What?" This time, it was Han Zimo's turn to twitch.
"What? Why not take responsibility? Han Zimo, you really disappoint me. So you're such an irresponsible person…No, you're not human, you're just…Mmm.”Han Zimo once again stepped forward and covered Shangguan Yahan's mouth before she could say the word 'beast.'
"I know, I know. I'll take responsibility.”Han Zimo was not in a good mood and left after saying that.
"Don't forget the car, house, and money!”Shangguan Yahan shouted at Han Zimo's back as she turned to look at Situ Yue.
Situ Yue understood and left with a dry laugh.
Shangguan Yahan heaved a sigh of relief and went to Nian Yourui's room.
"Yourui, it's me. I'm going in.”Shangguan Yahan pushed open the door and saw Nian Yourui lying on the bed, motionless. She only looked up at Shangguan Yahan when she heard her voice.
"You're back." She got up and sat down, her delicate little face flushed red with a layer of haze.
Shangguan Yahan walked over and sat down, patting her hand." Yourui, don't worry. Zimo will take responsibility for you. He has already promised to marry you."”
"What? He wants to marry me?" Nian Yourui was obviously surprised. Her already big eyes widened even more.
"What's wrong? You're not marrying him?" Shangguan Yahan only thought of this now.
She hadn't even asked Nian Yourui what she thought.
But that night…weren't they both willing?
Nian Yourui lowered her head and sighed. Her voice sounded aggrieved." We've come to this. Who else can I marry if not him?”
Shangguan Yahan frowned. She could understand Nian Yourui's thoughts. After all, she lived in a feudal society. But what she did not understand was that the two of them did not like each other. How could they…
Anyway, it had already happened.
Speaking of which, she should be the culprit. She should not have locked the two of them together.
It was so dark, half-closed, and there was only a man and a woman there. How could it not go off accidentally? Han Zimo must have been impatient to create a hole in the prison without caring about the pain.
At night, Sage Ye arrived very late and asked as soon as he entered," Zimo said he's getting married? Is it true?"
Shangguan Yahan was already lying on the bed and was about to sleep. Just as she was happy that she could have a good night's sleep, Sage Ye's voice came from behind her. Her breath was stuck in her throat, and she almost suffocated.
"Why are you here again?" She sat up and shouted at Sage Ye.
Sage Ye ignored her attitude. He walked over to the bedside and pulled her into his arms." What happened?" He also said that he would go out tomorrow to buy a house, a car, and some money. Just now, he even asked me to help you ask, what money?”
Shangguan Yahan was about to answer, but she realized that the question wasn't serious at all." You told Zimo that you're here?”
Sage Ye nodded." That's right. Why?”
"Sage Ye, are you shameless? Why do you always tell others about everything?”Shangguan Yahan started to make a fuss again, struggling desperately in his arms, and then hitting and pinching him.
Sage Ye grimaced in pain and suddenly pushed her down." What's there to hide? I came to my woman's place openly. What's there to hide?"”
"Ah pui! Who is a woman?" Shangguan Yahan spat fiercely, her little head eager to try and hit Sage Ye's nose with her forehead.
"Tell me, are you my woman?”Sage Ye stood on top of her. After a few moments, he immediately came to his senses.
Shangguan Yahan immediately felt his boiling temperature and became more obedient." Sage Ye, can't you stop being like this? I just want to live my own life. Why won't you let me go?”
Her tone softened and even carried a hint of pleading.
"Without Yahan 'er, how do you want Brother Ye to live? Brother Ye really couldn't leave Little Ya Han 'er. What would Yahan' er do if she wanted Brother Ye?”He buried his face in her neck and greedily sucked in her breath.
Shangguan Yahan was holding back her anger, but she couldn't beat Sage Ye. She was so angry that her eyes became hot and she started crying.
"Yahan 'er." Sage Ye was shocked. He looked up at her and without thinking, he lowered his head to lick the tears at the corner of her eyes.
"Sage Ye, are you a dog?" Shangguan Yahan roared again.
"Yahan 'er…Yahan' er." Sage Ye was completely immersed in it, unable to care about Shangguan Yahan's attitude. He found her lips and directly kissed her.
Shangguan Yahan regretted it, she really regretted it. She might as well have stayed in the Regent's Residence. At least Sage Ye wouldn't stick to her every night. Even if he held her in his arms, he would only sleep.
She regretted leaving Carefree Palace even more. She couldn't go back even if she wanted to, and she didn't know how to face Leng Yihan.
Now, she really wished that she had transmigrated into an ugly woman's body. At least, she wouldn't be as vexed as she was now.
