Wenmuzhen!
The true controller behind the marionette!
Wen Yuanyuan narrowed her eyes, her heart was filled with emotions. It could be said that Wen Muzhen played a huge role in her ending in her previous life!
Xin Yu had been instructed by Wen Muzhen to make all sorts of obstacles for her. Back then, she had thought that Xin Yu looked down on her, but that was not the case. From the very beginning, Xin Yu had been Wen Muzhen's venomous fangs. She would occasionally bite Xin Yu, and although it would not be fatal, it was a fate worse than death!
Wen Yuanyuan's thoughts were running wild while Nanny Yang was looking at her in admiration. She had not returned to the residence yet, but Xin Yu's series of actions were enough to clear up the situation. It must be known that even Nanny Yang only suspected that Xin Yu had a master behind her.
Miss was smarter than she had expected. It seemed that her worries were unnecessary.
To be honest, when she first met Wen Yuanyuan, Nanny Yang was quite worried. The Public House was not like the countryside. The environment was much more complicated, especially when there was a young lady who was more outstanding than her and was deeply loved by the old madam. With such a timid personality, it was difficult to have a place.
It seemed that she didn't understand the young miss well enough.
When she left, Granny Yang's footsteps were obviously much faster.
She relaxed but Wen Yuanyuan heaved a sigh of relief.
In a few days, she would return to the Duke of Wen's Mansion. She was about to face the people and things of the past. Her heart was heavy and complicated.
She even had the urge to leave. She believed that with the many things she had experienced in her previous life, even if she left, she would be able to live on in this world. Although she would not be rich, she would be able to find a pure land.
However, when she thought of her birth mother, who treated her so gently and well, she couldn't move her legs.
She walked over and pushed open the window. A bone-piercing chill hit her face, causing her somewhat muddled mind to instantly wake up.
For the sake of her biological mother and brother, she had to return to the Public House, which seemed peaceful on the surface but was actually filled with dirty things in private. Moreover, she could not suffer all the grievances and wrongs that she had suffered in the past for nothing. She had to find them all and vent her anger…
In her previous life, she had suffered a lot. In order to make everyone take a liking to her, she had tried her best to change and make things difficult for herself. In this life, she had the opportunity to live again, so she did not have to work so hard anymore.
The current her was capable of doing things that she could not do in her previous life!
Just as she was thinking about it, a black shadow suddenly flashed in front of her eyes, and the thick smell of blood assailed her nose. Before she could react, she was carried back to her room by a strong force, and the window that was originally wide open was closed.
At the same time, a cold dagger was pressed against her neck, threatening her life.
"Don't make a sound. I'm just hiding for a while.”His voice was clear and dignified, not allowing Wen Yuanyuan to say anything.
Before Wen Yuanyuan could say anything, the sound of messy footsteps and the sleepy voice of the waiter came from outside.
" Generals, please do us a favor. This floor is the superior room of our store. You know that those who can afford to live in this superior room…"
"Get lost! I don't care if you go to the bedroom or not. If you delay the investigation, I'll take your life!”
Wen Yuanyuan's face turned pale as she turned to look at the man standing behind her.
As if he had sensed something, the man moved the dagger closer to her. The sharp blade was pressed tightly against her skin, and his hoarse voice sounded threateningly in her ear." Send the soldiers away, or else..."
"Otherwise what? Kill me? Even if I die, you won't be able to escape!" Wen Yuanyuan calmly described the current situation.
The man was stunned for a moment. He did not expect her to have such a reaction. Moreover, she was so calm.
Actually, Wen Yuanyuan wasn't calm at all. She was so nervous that she was about to die. She didn't want to die after being reborn.
However, she had already lost the upper hand. She could either spill her blood on the spot or take a gamble. She naturally chose the latter.
"All you want is to hide from the search outside. I can help you, but you are not allowed to hurt a single hair on me!”
"You're bargaining with me?"
Wen Yuanyuan nodded," That's right, we are now in the same boat. If you are caught in my room, it will not benefit me at all. It is the same for you."”
The man laughed as his analysis made sense. His deep and pleasant voice echoed in his ears. It was numb and itchy, and goosebumps appeared on his arms.
Wen Yuanyuan subconsciously wanted to dodge, but there was still a dagger on his neck. He paused, grabbed the dagger, and moved to the side.
In the dim yellow light, she saw his face clearly.
Wen Yuanyuan was speechless.
She dared to say that this man was the ugliest person she had ever seen in her two lifetimes!
His appearance and his voice did not match!
After a breath, Wen Yuanyuan came back to her senses. She undid her belt and said to the man,"Hide on the bed."
The man stared blankly at her fingers as she took off her clothes.
She took off her coat and saw that he was standing there without moving. Wen Yuanyuan pushed him onto the bed and pulled the blanket over him. Then, she opened the bed curtain and separated the thick bed curtain into a small independent world.
The series of actions were both forceful and swift.
"Don't make a sound if you don't want to die!" After saying this, Wen Yuanyuan turned around and threw the bloodstained coat into the bathroom. Then, she went to wipe the blood on the ground.
The man opened a gap and looked at the thin figure in front of him through the gap. An almost invisible fluctuation flashed across his ink-like eyes, and his ugly face that could make a child cry twitched unnaturally.
She was a smart and interesting little girl.
Wen Yuanyuan had just cleaned up the bloodstains on the ground when someone knocked on the door.
"Miss, wake up, it's this old servant.”
Wen Yuanyuan turned to look at the tightly wrapped bed curtain and checked the floor again. After confirming that there were no more blood stains, she took a deep breath and walked over to open the door. She closed the door behind her.
Other than Granny Yang, there was also a team of armored officers outside the door.
"Nanny, what…what happened?" Wen Yuanyuan pretended to be surprised.”
Granny Yang glanced at the officer and explained,""Miss, they are from the Lingnan Army. They said that a spy broke into the inn and came to search. Now, they want to search your room.”
"Check my room?"
Wen Yuanyuan's gaze swept past the officers and turned back to Nanny Yang,"Nanny, do you think it's appropriate for them to search my room?"”
"This…"
Mrs. Yang was stumped. Of course, it was inappropriate.
Her young miss was not married yet. If these men went in and searched her, regardless of whether they found her or not, her young miss's reputation would be damaged in the end!
Mrs. Yang, who had been hesitant before knocking on the door, also felt that this move was greatly inappropriate.
