Raiders of the Duke and Duchess

Chapter 833 White Hair
"Only know?" Shangguan Chu felt outrageous, "Really only know? Nothing else? Then what kind of expression did she have when she said these words?"

Successful secret guards have long been trained to be tools that only know how to accept and execute orders. They have no emotions and desires, no independent judgment, and no attention to their master's emotions and expressions when giving orders. Shangguan Chu was naturally aware of this, but he still asked, but it was obvious that the other party did not know. He remained silent for a long time, not knowing, and reiterated again, "The girl did only say 'she knows'. "

This sentence was relayed from the mouth of the secret guard, and it was a little more indifferent and cold for no reason.

Shangguan Chu asked again, "Then what was she doing at that time?"

The secret guard kept his head down the whole time and indeed did not notice what Ji Wuyan was doing. After thinking for a moment, he said uncertainly, "Writing."

Just...writing? What word could be more urgent than this? The relationship between Xiao Ning and Shen Luoxin is so good, such indifference seems particularly abnormal. Shangguan Chu hesitated for a moment and finally went to Ji Wuyan's place.

……

Shangguan Chu Fenghuo stepped into the threshold. There was no one in the courtyard except Ji Wuyan, who was sitting on the porch. The warm winter sun shone in the courtyard. The orchids in the past had disappeared without knowing when, and it was a bit unaccustomed to the feeling of being empty.

The little girl was not surprised to see him. She seemed to have been waiting for a while. She pursed her lips and said to the seat next to her, "Sit down, the tea is ready. Thinking that you came in such a hurry, you must be thirsty. The tea that has been cooled in advance should be just right for your mouth."

There was a slight pause as he stepped up the steps, and Shangguan Chuxuan's heart finally slowly dropped to the ground. Since the little girl was so calm and relaxed, it was not a big problem. He loosened the clothes he was holding and walked over gently, "Did you guess that I would definitely come here? Or did you deliberately not say anything clearly, waiting for me to come to find you?"

Ji Wuyan shook his head, picked up the teacup at hand and took a sip before saying, "No...I'm not a god who predicts the future. I just thought that you would be anxious if you came here, but I don't know if you are in a hurry... I always feel a little confused about my brother’s attitude and thoughts towards her.”

Shangguan Chu was stroking the tea cup without drinking. After a long while, he frowned and said, "Because of those troublesome things over the years, you don't have many friends of the same age around you. Now it's really not easy for this Shen family girl to be one... I Naturally, you should treat her kindly, which is called loving the house and the bird."

Seriously... is it just that? Ji Wuyan looked at him sideways, but sighed in his heart, if this was really the case, why would you rush here in such a hurry just because you received the news that she had trespassed into Ashou's backyard? If this is really the case, you will only think that this little girl acts calmly and rationally, which is a good thing.

Just remembering Ning Xiuyuan's previous reminder, Ji Wuyan didn't say anything. She just withdrew her gaze, leaned back on her chair and looked at the bright sunlight in the courtyard, squinted and said slowly, "The secret guard beside her said, She decided to go in after listening to the conversation between several ladies. She probably heard some useful news... Brother, if you were to change places, you would make the same choice, right?"

"Of course! It's just..." He subconsciously retorted that Shen Luoxin was just a little girl. There were so many men here. Even if they were looking for someone with medical skills, there would still be Doctor Chen and Chen Yinuo. Shen Luoxin couldn't get her turn... But when he turned his head, he met Ji Wuyan's eyes, and somehow these words got stuck in his throat and he couldn't say them out.

How would you describe the look in the little girl’s eyes?
From such a close distance, he could even see the tiny fluff on the little girl's face, and he could also see his own reflection in the dark pupils. Naturally, he could also clearly see the extraordinarily complicated look in her eyes under her distinct eyelashes.

There is worry, there is understanding, there is also reason.

After a while, the little girl turned her head, with only one side of her beautiful profile facing him, and sighed softly, "Someone has to go... You and I both know that since there are still doubts there, someone has to go. . You, me, the secret guards, the Chen family, Mr. Chen, even grandma... no matter who we meet, we will go in. If that's the case, why can't it be Shen Luoxin?"

"Brother, do you want to say that with so many people, how can she be a little girl? But brother, this is not a battlefield, no martial arts, no physical strength. In the face of the epidemic, everyone is the same... What's more, If there really is something inside, one Shen Luoxin is much more useful than a group of secret guards."

Shangguan Chu opened his mouth but made no sound. He felt something was blocked in his throat, which was dry and astringent, so he picked up the teacup in his hand and took a sip - yes, why couldn't it be Shen Luoxin?

"You came here in a hurry just now and saw that I had tea prepared and waiting for you. Do you think I have a plan in mind?" Ji Wuyan looked at him again, his words were gentle, like drizzle moistening things silently, "But I really No...if she hasn't gone in yet, I will probably stop her, even if I go in myself, I have to stop her. But now that she has gone in, I can only believe her and wait."

Shangguan Chu lowered his eyebrows. After a long while, he took another sip from the teacup, then slowly put down the teacup and sighed, "Yeah... I didn't expect that, I still need you, a little girl, to cheer me up." Reason. Everyone knows that they can persuade themselves, but they still make these little girls angry. Each one is more tormenting than the other, and none of them regard themselves as girls.

"If you are concerned, you will be in chaos." Ji Wuyan looked sideways at the teacup in the other person's hand and reminded, "I didn't expect that Mr. Shangguan would also have a day of chaos."

The way he was running around while holding his clothes, and the way he was drinking like an ox while holding a teacup, this was almost impossible for Shangguan Chu in the past.

Shangguan Chu raised his eyes and sneered, "I didn't expect that? Of course you couldn't see it when I made a mess because of you. Ask Qingshan how many things have been broken in my house since you came to this damn place. How many times have I slept peacefully? I am anxious when there is no news, and I am angry when there is news. Come and count it for yourself. See for yourself how many white hairs I have gained because of this!" As he said this, he stretched his head seriously! passed.

Ji Wuyan smiled helplessly, stretched out his hand to pat, and glanced at the other person's head inadvertently. His raised hand suddenly paused, and his whole body felt as if he was struck by lightning - three thousand black hair, combed meticulously, with only one seemingly simple jade hairpin. Under the sunlight, the ink is indeed slightly mixed with some silvery white.

Shangguan Chu, who was still in his early thirties, actually had white hair... which he didn't have before.
