Chapter 162 What’s your girl’s name?
There was a hint of sarcasm in these words, and Hanyan was so angry that she gasped for breath and tried hard to calm herself down. She felt that even her fetal movements became unusually unstable because of this anger.

She gritted her teeth and looked at Lin Mowan again. Lin Mowan also looked at her, still smiling. Seeing that she couldn't make up her mind, Lin Mowan didn't force her anymore. She just said in a calm tone: "Anyway, Third Aunt, think about it carefully."

After saying that, she turned her head to look at the sky outside the window which had already darkened completely. Without waiting for Hanyan to say anything, Lin Mowan spoke again: "It's getting late. Third Aunt should go back, right? If someone finds out..."

She didn't continue saying the rest of the words, but just prolonged the last syllable meaningfully, her eyes turned slightly, and her gaze fell back on Hanyan.

Hanyan looked at her with complicated eyes. It was hard to tell whether it was hatred or some other emotion. She just stroked her belly and choked up a little. No matter what, the child had been in her belly for five or six months. How could she just abandon it?

Thinking of this, Hanyan slowly closed her eyes, calmed herself down, stood up, and said, "I'll think about it. Give me some time."

Lin Mowan didn't respond, but just lowered her eyes silently. Hanyan didn't ask any more questions, so she could only swallow the loss and turned away.

Not long after she walked out of the room, snowflakes began to fall from the gloomy sky, accompanied by the sound of "whoosh" wind. She sat in front of the window, staring blankly at the increasingly dense snowflakes outside the window, but Yuzhi still did not come back.

She was a little worried. Although she knew that it was someone from the Shen family who took her away, she always felt that it was not a good thing.

So she waited alone until the second half of the night, but still no one came back. She was still worried, so she sent someone to the Shen family to secretly inquire. She heard that Yuzhi did return to the Shen family, but did not follow Shen Weiyuan's arrangements. It was Shen Junchi who was in charge from beginning to end.

Although someone had told her this before, she didn't take it seriously at first. But now she thinks about it, if it was just a simple question, how could it take so long?

But looking back over the past three or four years, Yuzhi has been taking care of her personally, and Shen Weiyuan has never told her anything else, let alone Shen Junchi. So, could it be that Shen Junchi came for her?
But Lin Mowan thought about it carefully and confirmed that there was nothing related to this person in her short memory. She also felt from the bottom of her heart that it could not be directed at her.

As she was thinking, it was already dawn without her noticing, and the snow outside gradually stopped. She had not slept all night. The maid came into the room to prepare the water room for her to wash and wash, and saw her sitting alone in front of the window, with the quilt on the bed still neatly made.

The maid was a little worried: "Miss, you should take a rest. I will wake you up when there is news from the other side."

Lin Mowan turned around and just glanced at her, then shook her head and stood up and said, "It's okay, I'm not too tired. Aren't they back yet?"

The little girl shook her head, and Lin Mowan didn't make things difficult for her. She just asked her to go downstairs. She changed her clothes, washed up, and prepared to go out.

As soon as the door opened, Yuzhi was standing in the yard.

The master and servant looked at each other. Yuzhi was stunned for a long time and didn't react. It was Lin Mowan who spoke first: "Yuzhi? Are you okay?"

She was thinking about going out to look for her, but she never thought that she would come back. Yuzhi looked at her, shook her head, and slowly exhaled a breath.

After a long silence, she turned around and looked around, then took Lin Mowan's hand and walked out. Lin Mowan didn't understand, but Yuzhi just walked towards the door and said, "Miss, please follow me first. We have to leave here now."

Her hands were very cold, like water that had been left in the yard overnight and frozen into ice. Lin Mowan was a little confused, but still did not refuse her and let her pull her away from Wisteria Garden.

The two had just left the house, and before they had gone far, they heard the rumbling sound of a carriage passing by. Yuzhi seemed to be startled, and her hand holding Lin Mowan's wrist tightened involuntarily. Lin Mowan was suspicious, but still did not ask. Yuzhi just pushed her to the corner of the alley and gently reminded her: "Girl, don't make a sound."

Lin Mowan nodded and did as she was told.

Yuzhi stuck her head out and saw the carriage parked steadily in front of the gate of Zither Garden. The guards from Beidinghou Mansion opened the curtain of the carriage to facilitate questioning later.

He signaled the guard beside him to knock on the door. After a while, the courtyard door was slowly opened. Lin Mowan was blocked by Yuzhi behind her. At this angle, she couldn't stick her head out to see what was going on. She could only listen quietly to the noise over there.

Fortunately, it was freezing cold and the surroundings were quiet. In addition, Lin Mowan's hearing was not bad, so she could hear the noise over there clearly enough.

The people from Bei Dinghou Mansion knocked on the door for a long time. The door was opened by a servant in the courtyard. He looked at the person in front of him with suspicion and asked, "Who are you looking for?"

Jiang Ke nodded slightly: "Excuse me, may I ask if the girl living here is a girl named Hua?"

The servant frowned in confusion when he heard this, then shook his head and said, "No, my girl's surname is Lin."

Jiang Ke turned around and looked at Shen Junchi who was sitting in a wheelchair. Shen Junchi's eyes darkened slightly. After a moment's thought, he asked again, "Lin what?"

The servant did not reply, but scanned these people with a wary look. Finally, he seemed to realize something and asked, "Who are you? Why are you asking about my master?"

Jiang Ke frowned, obviously dissatisfied with the boy's attitude, and turned back to look at Shen Junchi behind him, as if asking for instructions.

Shen Junchi just gave him a calm look, then smiled calmly at the boy and replied, "I am the master of the Shen family, and I came here to ask."

Upon hearing this, the servant's tough attitude eased. He knew Shen Junchi. Even if he had not seen him in person, he had heard of him. After all, he was working for Shen Weiyuan.

He quickly opened the courtyard door, stepped aside, and said, "Sir, would you like to come in and sit down?"

Shen Junchi just smiled slightly, and had no intention of entering the house. He just asked, "By the way, what's your daughter's name?"

He smiled kindly, and it looked like he was just stopping by to ask on a whim. The servant didn't hide anything and just answered, "My last name is Lin, Lin Mowan."

Shen Junchi was silent, pondering the name over and over again. It was consistent with the name he heard from Shen Weiyuan, but he still had many doubts in his mind.

Thinking about it, he remained calm and asked, "Is she in the house now? Can I see her?"

The servant was embarrassed when he heard this, "What a coincidence, the young lady just went out, and I don't know when she will be back."
