Jin Tingjiao

Chapter 40 What happened to the hand?
Shen Xi ran along the alley just like when he came in!

She didn't stop until she rushed to the entrance of the alley and could see pedestrians passing leisurely on the street outside.

The streets have returned to calm, and the open space in front of the Han Mansion in the distance has long been filled with the shouts of vendors.

She leaned on the wall and looked back, the alley was still quiet, no chasing shouts, no footsteps!
A heart pounded wildly in his chest.

She rubbed her chest, leaned her back against the wall and closed her eyes.

But what appeared in front of his eyes was still the pair of Ruifeng eyes that showed undisguised surprise, and the face that faced the silver hairpin on his neck but did not breathe in the slightest——

She shook her head violently and opened her eyes!

"girl!"

Yuan Bei's call suddenly came from her ear, she was sitting in the carriage three steps away, and the driver had already driven the carriage over.

"You've figured it out!" Yuan Bei's eyes turned red with anxiety, "The servants chased you here, but they didn't dare to enter the alley, are you okay?"

Shen Xi tried his best to suppress his heartbeat, caught her who jumped out of the car, and wiped her tears with a handkerchief: "I'm fine. Who lives in this alley?"

"Your servant doesn't know either. I just heard that this alley has been bought by someone, and outsiders are not allowed to enter.

"The servant girl thinks it's a private place, so it's naturally inconvenient to trespass. I'm not sure if the girl will go in, so I'll just wait here."

Just a private place?

The servants of the Han family still have scruples about whether this is a private place?
Shen Xi turned his head and looked in the alley again, his eyebrows frowned.

But she didn't want to explore anymore, too much curiosity would kill people.

What's more, she still has something in her hands.

She glanced at the coachman and led her into the car: "Go back to the house first."

She still has injuries on her hands, so she must not hang around outside anymore.

It is a good thing for her to keep the bloodline, but it also brings fatal danger at the same time!

In the future, not only can she not take risks at will, but she can't let anyone have a chance to see her bleed—including Aunt Pei and the maids around her.

Returning home quickly, the coachman must be rushing back to have lunch, rampaging along the alley where only a few people are picked.

Shen Xi also didn't bother to pay attention, entered the second gate, and went directly to Lixiangyuan.

Aunt Pei was drying the quilt for Shen Liang under the sun, when she saw her coming back, she hurriedly greeted her: "Have you eaten yet?"

She shook her head, and when she reached the door of the room, she stopped again and said to Pearl who hurriedly ushered in, "Bring a basin of hot water in."

Yuan Bei who came in later carried a flower basket and hugged candied haws, and called Shen Liang first when he entered the door: "Fourth master, come quickly, and see the candied haws that the girl bought for you!"

Shen Liang in the room heard the sound, first climbed onto the table and looked out the window, then slid down to the ground and ran out.

Everything is fine at home.

Pearl brought hot water into the room, and Shen Xi had already wiped off the blood stains on his fingers.

Seeing her bandaged wound, Zhu Zhen still rushed over exclaiming: "What happened?!"

"Accidentally got caught by a tree branch, it's fine. You go out first, don't tell Aunt Pei." Shen Xi dismissed her lightly.

Aunt Pei is worried, and she doesn't want to attract attention.

Although Pearl was worried, she still dared not disobey her orders.

Shen Xi waited for her to go out, and then bolted the door.

After dipping in water, he washed all the blood stains on the exposed skin, then untied the cloth, and wrapped it with his own handkerchief.

No one in her yard wears cotton clothes, if people see this and become suspicious, it is not good after all.

After finishing everything, she looked up and saw herself in the bronze mirror on the washbasin, and then she let out a breath as if she had relieved a heavy burden.

No one knows how much she wanted to pull out the hairpin on her head and rush in in front of the gate of the Han Mansion, just like how Wen Chan killed her back then, after finding her, she inserted it into her throat without hesitation, and decisively ended the incident everything!
But how can this be possible?

Not to mention that she couldn't get past the heavy defenses and get close to her, even if she could get close, how could she escape the end of life for life?
Wen not only owed her a life, but she also owned everything through the springboard of the Zhang family. Even if she got her life back, wouldn't she still be at a loss?

If it's life for life, it's even more worthless.

She had already died once, if she had to die for revenge this time, then her life would be in vain!

But now that the reality is before her eyes, she will definitely not be able to overthrow her alone.

What's more, she is still of Helian blood, so she can't act rashly!

She took a deep breath and sat back, seeing the strip of cotton cloth removed from the table, she couldn't help picking it up again.

Since that person in the alley didn't chase her down, he probably wouldn't expose her again, right?

She is a deep boudoir, and there is almost no chance of meeting him again. As long as they don't meet, she should be considered safe, right?
She raised her hand to prop up her forehead, and when her fingers touched the bun, she suddenly paused again—yes, she even forgot to pick up the silver hairpin she used to kill him!
At that time, I was only concerned about escaping as soon as possible, but I didn't care about this at all!
After pinching her fingers for a while, she soon relaxed again.

What are you panicking about?
It was just an ordinary silver hairpin, so what if he picked it up?There is neither her name nor surname engraved on it, nor any logo, no matter who picks it up, it can't restrain her.

She picked up the cloth again and threw it into the copper basin.

"Girl, it's time to eat."

Aunt Pei knocked lightly on the door, her gentle voice was as usual.

She stabilized her mind, covered the basin with a cloth, hid her hands in her sleeves, and walked over to open the door.
