However, if Si Muran was happy, there would be people who would be unhappy. Si Yalan was one of them.
Si Muran was about to marry into the Prince's mansion, which meant that her marriage with Jin Lin was over. Without her, Si Yalan felt that her chances were much greater. However, the problem that came with it was that marrying into the Prince's mansion was much more powerful than marrying into the Jin residence. If Si Muran were to settle scores with her again, wouldn't she be powerless to retaliate?
Furthermore, that idiot Si Yunyun had not dared to appear in front of Si Muran ever since she had fainted from Si Muran's words. She had even been having nightmares for the past two days and was completely useless. Therefore, after weighing the pros and cons, Si Yalan decided to go and express her goodwill to Si Muran.
Si Muran was lying on a recliner in her courtyard, sunbathing. She had specially ordered this recliner yesterday with a blueprint. She didn't expect that the shop would be so fast. Today, it was delivered to the Minister's Mansion. The feeling of lying on it reminded her of the comfortable days before she transmigrated. She didn't know if she could go back.
When Si Yalan entered the courtyard, she saw Si Muran lying there leisurely under the sun. She didn't seem to know that she had come in. At that moment, a very evil thought flashed through Si Yalan's mind. If Si Muran died in an accident, would it save a lot of trouble?
Si Muran seemed to have sensed an unfamiliar aura. When she opened her eyes, she saw Si Yalan staring at her. She was so frightened that she jumped up from the recliner.
Si Muran took a deep breath and suddenly felt that her vigilance was too low, so she asked in an unfriendly tone," Why are you here?”
She didn't know if Si Yalan would mind, but she answered with a smile," Sixth Sister, I'm here to congratulate you and His Highness on your marriage.”
Courting others for nothing--
Si Muran couldn't help but be more vigilant. She and Si Yalan had never been on good terms before, so her congratulations were probably a little too abrupt, right?
Although Si Muran was suspicious, she still replied calmly," Thank you for your concern, Big Sister.”
"I know that Sixth Sister has a lot of misunderstandings about me. There's another reason why I came this time, which is to turn hostility into friendship with Sixth Sister.”
Si Yalan put it nicely, but Si Muran knew very well that this woman was definitely not simple. Si Yalan was probably one of the reasons why Si Yunyun was so against her. Now, she wanted to be friendly with her. How stupid did she think she was?
However, Si Muran wasn't a newbie when it came to disguises.
"Sister, what are you talking about? There was no quarrel between sisters. Even if there was some misunderstanding before, Sister would not take it to heart, right?”
"Younger Sister is right." Si Yalan didn't expect Si Muran to be so easy to talk to.
"Since that's the case, there's no need for sister to specially apologize. I've never minded those things.”Si Muran even gave Si Yalan a big smile. She was a very generous person.
Si Yalan was stumped for a moment, but it was obvious that she still had something to say to Si Muran. She did not expect Jinlin to choose this time to come over.
When Jinlin appeared again, Si Muran didn't feel anything special. On the other hand, Si Yalan's face was flushed red. She looked like a shy girl who had just met her sweetheart.
In reality, Jin Lin did not arrive at the Minister's Manor at this time. It was just that he had not shown up. When he saw Si Muran playing so happily with those kids, he didn't know why but he felt that her smile was very glaring.
Jinlin was referring to a group of brats who had suddenly barged into her courtyard earlier today. Si Muran was certain that these brats were her younger siblings with her panda eyes. She did not know how her deadbeat father and his women were so fertile. She was already the sixth child, and the candidate for the successor of the Minister's Estate was probably about to be ranked 20.
In order to avoid being tortured by these brats, Si Muran made a few spinning tops for them. It was only then that she realized that children's obsession with toys was not within her imagination. However, seeing that they were having fun, her mood became very good.
Jinlin must have seen Si Muran at that time. As for why he decided to show up again, only he knew the reason.
"I have something to tell you." Jinlin said slowly. Si Muran seemed to be the only person in his line of sight. Si Yalan was completely ignored, no different from an invisible person.
A ball of jealousy was burning in Si Yalan's heart. She clenched her hands so tightly that she didn't even feel her nails digging into her flesh. However, she had to pretend that nothing had happened and bid farewell to Si Muran. From the beginning to the end, Jinlin didn't even look at her once.
"Just say what you want to say." Si Muran could not be bothered to play any more tricks with Jin Lin. Compared to Jin Lin's two-faced attitude, Si Muran felt that Pei Chenshuo had suddenly become more dignified.
Jinlin was not too bothered by Si Muran's attitude. He said," The siege weapon that I designed previously is ready. I came to ask if you want to take a look."”
Si Muran was a little hesitant when she heard Jinlin's words. However, she really wanted to see what the theory would look like when it turned into reality. If it could be powerful enough, it should be a great contribution.
Si Muran thought about it and agreed." I'll go with you."”
Si Muran's answer seemed to be within Jinlin's expectations. A scheming glint flashed across his eyes, but Si Muran did not notice it.
Jin Lin had prepared a very inconspicuous carriage in advance and parked it at the back door of the Minister's residence.
Si Muran was puzzled by his actions and asked," Why are we leaving through the back door of the residence?”
Jin Lin chuckled and replied," Your current identity is different from before. You're the prince's future concubine. If you show your face in public, I'm afraid it won't be good."”
Si Muran had never rejected the idea of getting married. After hearing Jinlin's words, she was reminded of Pei Chenshuo, that annoying fellow. Her current state was like she had just jumped out of a fire pit and stepped into another abyss. Couldn't God be a little more lenient to her?
"You don't want to marry him?" Jinlin saw Si Muran's reluctant expression and could easily deduce this.
"I haven't thought of getting married yet." Si Muran felt that she had repeated this sentence many times, but no one really listened to her.
"Then what about your engagement with His Highness?”Jinlin's tone was a little strange, as if he was regretful. Actually, if Minister Si had accepted his betrothal gift that day, the one engaged to Si Muran would not be Pei Chenshuo, but him.
Si Muran did not like Jinlin's aggressive way of asking questions. Who was he to her? If he wanted to ask about her matters, he had to get her permission as the master. In the end, he had gone overboard.
"There's no need for Young Master Jin to worry so much about the matters between me and His Highness.”Si Muran's words had pulled the distance between the two of them apart. Jinlin glanced at her and did not say anything else.
Si Muran and Jin Lin sat in the same carriage, but the atmosphere was very awkward. At the same time, the uneasiness in Si Muran's heart grew stronger.
Si Muran felt that a long time had passed. She lifted the curtain of the carriage and realized that the carriage had already driven out of the city. It did not stop at the city gate.
Si Muran had a bad feeling. She turned to Jinlin and asked warily," Where are you taking me?”
Jinlin sneered." You'll find out soon enough."”
Si Muran subconsciously wanted to leave the carriage, but she suddenly felt a pain in the back of her neck. Her vision went black and she lost all consciousness.
By the time Si Muran regained consciousness, several hours had passed. Jinlin had hit her so hard that the back of her neck was still burning.
Where was this place?
It was pitch black as far as her eyes could see. Si Muran's last memory before she fainted was that she was sitting in the carriage with Jinlin. In other words, all of this was Jinlin's doing.
That damned man! If she had the chance to see him again, she would definitely tear him into pieces. However, Si Muran wanted to slap herself more now. She clearly knew that Jinlin was not a good person, so how could she believe what he said so easily?
Si Muran did not know where she was. The only thing she was sure of was that she was locked up. Her nose was filled with a damp and rotten smell. It was one thing for Jinlin to kidnap her, but he even left her in such a place. If she listened carefully, she could hear the sound of something being knocked. Could she be in the same room as some unknown creature?
Si Muran wasn't in the mood to take things as they came. She tried her best to control her state of mind, and her fear slowly dissipated. However, facing the unknown, Si Muran really didn't have any confidence.
Si Muran felt around her surroundings. She was surrounded by cold walls and the only place where she could feel air flowing was above her. Could she be underground now?
Jinlin did not hesitate to kidnap her himself, which meant that he did not care that she knew what he had done. He did not even need to put on the most basic disguise in front of her. This was not a good sign.
After an unknown amount of time, Si Muran had already thought of all kinds of ways to die. In the end, she still felt that suicide was the easiest way to go. However, whether it was biting her tongue to commit suicide or slamming her head against the wall to die, other than the unpleasant death, it would definitely be very painful.
Si Muran was still letting her imagination run wild. At this moment, a few sounds came from above her head. She couldn't help but look up.
The blinding white light shone in, and her eyes felt a sharp pain. For a moment, she even thought that she would go blind just like that.
A hole was opened above Si Muran's head. Someone jumped down from it and covered Si Muran's eyes without any explanation. Then, he carried her on his back.
Si Muran didn't resist because she knew that resisting would be useless. If she angered the other party, she might really lose her life.
The person carrying her only walked for a while before putting her down and removing the blindfold. She was now in a very ordinary room, so ordinary that she could be seen everywhere.# Daguan Review Passed: Daguan Time:111420184: 24PM #Cancel Review All: wdd201302 Time:111420185: 55PM #
