" Little sister…Little sister…" At this moment, the door was pushed open from the outside, and a tall black figure flashed in.
"Big brother? Is that you?" Du Penhong carefully walked out from behind the bookcase and groped his way to Du Youlong's side." What happened outside? Did someone discover your tracks?"”
"No." In the pitch-black room, they could not see each other's expressions. They could only feel the hot air that spewed out when they spoke." It's that man in black. Big Brother had gone to track down the man in black just now, but he had still escaped in the end.”Du Youlong said regretfully.
"As for you, did anything happen when you were alone in the room just now?”Du Youlong asked uneasily, then waited patiently for Du Panhong's answer. However, he was met with silence. Therefore, he asked even more uneasily,""Did something really happen?”
Du Pian Hong lowered his eyes, unable to make up his mind.
She didn't know if she should tell her big brother about meeting Sheng Minghao. However, if that was the case, she would not be able to come to the appointment tomorrow. Then, would Sheng Minghao really turn the entire capital upside down to find her?
In the end, she chose to change the topic.
"Big Brother, I think there's something strange about the tea leaves in Fenzhou," she said. At that time, Hou Yuying once told me that there was a rule of three drinks in Fen Province. Drinking it can moisten your throat and clear your throat. The second drink could detoxify and nourish one's skin. Three drinks could make people forget their worries. Big brother, have you heard of it?"
"I've never heard of it before!" Du Youlong shook his head.”He had been to Fen Province before, but he had never heard of this tea being produced in Fen Province. Thus, he motioned for Du Pian Hong to light the lighter. He then walked to the corner where he had found the tea powder and squatted down.
Du Pian Hong lit a match, and the light from the match lit up the corner of the wall.
With the help of the fire, Du Youlong picked up a pinch of fine powder and wrapped it in white paper. After doing these things, he patted his body and said,"It's getting late. We should go back.”He walked to the windowsill and listened to the movements outside. He realized that the noise had calmed down.
It seemed that the assassin had been caught.
"Little sister, let's go." In the end, Du Youlong grabbed Du Penhong's hand and said,""We'll come again tomorrow. Let's call it a day.”
Du Pian Hong nodded, then looked back at the room one last time.
There was an ancient incense burner on the desk, and it was emitting a faint green smoke…
" This is Rosemary. It can temporarily make people forget their troubles…"
"Remember, if you use too much of this thing, the consequences will be unimaginable…"
After returning to the inn, Du Pian Hong quickly washed up and went to bed. She was lying on the bed in her middle clothes, and her mind kept replaying what had happened tonight.
First, there were some suspicious points in Hou Yuying's murder case. They found out that the real crime scene was not Hou Yuying's bedroom at all. Following that, he met a person who looked exactly like Xiao Jiu in his room. Moreover, this person had the same name as the current Sage Emperor!
Most importantly, this person and Xiao Jiu both claimed that they were the young man in luxurious clothes in her childhood memories!
Then, it was the mysterious assassin, and then the Fenzhou tea leaves…
What was the connection between these?
Du Shanhong shook his head and decided to temporarily dispel these doubts. Because the more she thought about these questions, the more muddled her mind became.
Therefore, she decided not to think about it. She planned to release herself temporarily and seek a peaceful sleep.
She turned over, buried her head in the blanket, and fell asleep.
"Big brother once said that this little pig head looks like my face. Now, I'll give this pig head to you.”
"Haha, your big brother is right. This pig looks like you!"
"This nursery rhyme was also taught by my big brother. Don't you think my big brother is amazing?”
"Humph! I learned it in two hours. Do you think I'm amazing?？”
"Let's play with the flower buds. Other children love to play."
"Idiot. I'll play with you."
"I'm a beggar, what's your name?”
"Sheng Minghao."
In the dream, Du Pian Hong kept recalling the scene when he met Sheng Ming Hao when he was eight years old. From the sweet piglet at the beginning, to the strange ballad that her brother taught her, to the cotton candy, to the flower buds…
Everything was exactly as Xiao Jiu had said, exactly as Sheng Minghao had said…
In the end, who was the real young man in luxurious clothes?
Du Pian Hong turned around and opened his eyes silently, sighing. The night was cold, but she could still break out in a cold sweat. She stood up and walked to the table to pour a cup of tea.
As soon as the cool tea entered her mouth, it instantly dissolved her thirst and heat.
"This tea is a specialty of my hometown.”
"This tea can relieve your fatigue.”
" Elder Sister actually wants to help Younger Sister…"
“……”
Why? Why?
She had thought that these Fen Province tea leaves were really from Hou Yuying's care and kindness, but in the end…
She actually used these tea leaves to kill her!
That night, after she drank the third cup of tea, she immediately lost consciousness.
At that time, she had never thought that it would be her good friend who had sent her those tea leaves!
If it weren't for those tea leaves, she would never have been framed, she would never have been humiliated, and she would never have let her parents bear the pain for her!
Du Penhong clenched his fist and slammed it on the table.
After a loud thud, her hand hurt, but her heart hurt even more.
"Pian Hong, why did you harm your own body like this?”At this moment, a gust of cold wind blew in from the window, and a man's ethereal voice came along with the wind. Then, before Du Pian Hong realized it, her body was hugged from behind and a pair of warm hands wrapped around her waist.
Du Shanhong turned around and found that the person who had ambushed her was Sheng Minghao.
" You…" She wanted to say something, but Sheng Minghao sealed her lips.
Sheng Minghao gently pressed his index finger on Du Pian Hong's red lips, then shushed him, signaling him to calm down.
"I miss you so much tonight. Therefore, I specially came to invite you to tour around.”Sheng Minghao curled his lips and smiled. His arms were still wrapped around Du Panhong, and he had no intention of letting go.
"Humph!" Du Shanhong didn't buy it. She immediately turned around and stomped on Sheng Minghao's right foot.
"Ah!" Sheng Minghao grunted and then hugged his legs to dodge to the side. He found a corner to sit down, then looked at his feet awkwardly and said,"I didn't expect you to be so powerful after just missing a group!”
"You flatter me, you flatter me." Du Pian Hong was in a good mood after being praised by the other party." Of course, we have to have a vicious method to deal with lechers. Otherwise, the one who will suffer is the woman!”
"Is that so?" Sheng Minghao stood up again and laughed as if nothing had happened. It was as if he wasn't the one who was stepped on." But, since ancient times, there have been times when men have suffered.”
He smiled mysteriously as he spoke. This made Du Penhong extremely curious.
"What is it?" She asked without hesitation.
