Chapter 59 The Closer Road
Rong Yi's body felt cold, and she felt the cold wind pouring straight into her neck.

If no one was outside, she would have squatted down and hugged herself to keep warm.

Rong Yi lowered her head and covered her collar with her chin, revealing the white back of her neck.

After a while, she felt someone standing next to her. Rong Yi looked up and was startled. However, she held it back and calmly took two steps back and said, "Uncle."

Jiang Shunxiao focused his eyes on her, looking at her hands that were red from the cold, and his eyes darkened unconsciously.

It's such a cold day. I don't know how to wear more clothes. I deserve to be frozen.

Without saying anything, he just turned around and walked out, and Rong Yi naturally followed him quickly.

She lowered her head and didn't pay attention to the road. She just followed Jiang Shunxiao. When she reached the dark path, Rong Yi paused and said hesitantly: "Uncle, this doesn't seem to be the way to Yingyan Courtyard."

Jiang Shunxiao did not look back, only said: "This is another way."

Rong Yi couldn't help but ask: "This road is very dark, why don't you take that one?" She was a little afraid of the dark.

Jiang Shunxiao pursed his lips and scolded: "Talk too much."

Rong Yi quickly shut up.

Seeing her silence, Jiang Shunxiao said again: "This road is closer."

Rong Yi is clear.

Maybe it was closer, but it was too dark after all. Rong Yi was walking behind again, so she was a little scared. She quickly looked back and saw that there was no end in sight behind her, there was only blackness, and the blackness was like A strange hole that can swallow people up.

Rong Yi recited "Amitabha" silently several times in her mind, but she was still afraid, always feeling that something would follow behind her...

The result of not paying attention when walking was that Rong Yi didn't see it when she walked down the steps. Her whole foot was in the air and her body moved forward uncontrollably.

She was already scared, but when she suddenly stepped on the air, Rong Yi screamed out in fear, closed her eyes tightly and prepared to embrace the earth.But she did not fall down, and fell straight into Jiang Shunxiao's arms. Although Rong Yi was a little confused, she instinctively stood up straight. After standing firm, she took a small step back and said in panic: "Slave. Damn it."

Jiang Shunxiao looked at her shaking like a sieve indifferently. Her face could not be seen clearly in the dimness, but he could vaguely see her thin and slender figure and heard her clear and soft voice.

He hummed and said, "A restless woman."

Rong Yi's face turned red instantly, and she seemed to hear the misunderstanding and contempt in his words.

Did he think she threw herself into his arms on purpose?
Rong Yi felt aggrieved, but she could not refute what her master said, especially Jiang Shunxiao, who seemed to be a difficult person to get along with, so Rong Yi did not dare to reply.

……

The two of them were silent all the way until they saw the light. When they arrived at Yingyan Courtyard, Rong Yi thought blankly: No, why does it feel like this road is longer?

Is it because she has something on her mind that makes it feel so long?
When he looked up again, Jiang Shunxiao had already entered the room. Rong Yi quickly went up to serve him. Before he could get closer, he heard some disgusted words from Jiang Shunxiao inside.

"Don't let Fu Rongyi go out in the future. Aren't you afraid of losing face?"

"Rongyi is okay..."

Rong Yi touched her face and her mood instantly dropped.

Originally, she wanted to cover her face to avoid trouble, but instead, it caused her a lot of trouble.

As the young lady's maid, she needs to come forward many times. Now according to my uncle's wishes, she will retreat behind the scenes in the future?

Think about it, it will still be uncomfortable.
