The reborn poisonous woman is hard to abandon

Chapter 301 Encounter with a Thief
"Squeak..."

Xiao Ruan turned over on the bed, and suddenly heard a slight abnormal noise in the room, unconsciously pricking up her ears to listen.

At this time, the night was quiet, the room was pitch black, the rustling sound was getting closer and closer, and a vague figure soon appeared in Xiao Ruan's field of vision.

That person was tall and seemed to come in through a window, it was definitely not Zhu Yun or Li Yun.

Holding her breath, Xiao Ruan touched the bed with her fingers for a while, and found that there was no self-defense around her, and was about to call for help, when she suddenly realized that the black shadow opposite was very familiar, and it looked very much like Huo Xun.

After being surprised, she hurriedly closed her eyes, pretending to be still asleep.

As the man approached, Xiao Ruan could even feel the chill from the outside on his body.Taking advantage of the dark night, Xiao Ruan quietly opened her eyes a little, and she saw Huo Xun standing motionless beside her bed, as if staring at herself.

Huo Xun didn't speak for a long time, and Xiao Ruan's heart slowly recovered from the surprise at the beginning.

After the divorce, she never promised to meet Huo Xun again.And because Huo Xun was kicked out by the Lu family several times, he seemed to feel ashamed, so he no longer came to harass him.

To outsiders, they are already strangers, but tonight he sneaked into his room is...

"Ruan'er, how are you doing recently?"

Xiao Ruan stared at Huo Xun's blurred face with half-closed eyes, full of thoughts in her mind, suddenly seeing Huo Xun stretching out her hand towards her, she was startled, thinking that the other party found out that she had woken up, and was about to stop pretending. There was another sigh.

"I'm afraid, you will only listen to me when you are asleep."

Huo Xun stretched his hand halfway, as if he was worried that his actions would wake Xiao Ruan up, finally turned his hand to the corner of the quilt, and tucked the corner of the quilt for her.

"Ruan'er, please don't be angry with me. My love for you has never changed. Before I deliberately behaved ambiguously with Qingqing just to force you away, but now you really left me , but I always feel like something is missing.”

Huo Xun's voice was low and hoarse, like a heavy stone mill that turned with great difficulty.

Because Xiao Ruan closed her eyes, her ears became sharper than usual, and thinking about what happened during the day, she almost couldn't help but want to open her eyes and tell him that she has completely understood him, let alone being angry with him .

"I have already promised Zhao Yan that the prince will be severely injured within ten days. After this incident, the relationship between me and the prince will be completely broken, but Zhao Yan may not be reused for me. The road I chose this time is too dangerous, but you Don't worry, after all the dust settles, I will definitely tell you everything, and I will never let you be wronged by me again..."

Quietly listening to Huo Xun's narration, Xiao Ruan's heart was once again turbulent.

She thought that Huo Xun pushed herself away to fight against Zhao Yan, but Huo Xun said that he chose to form an alliance with Zhao Yan. In this way, he wanted to rebel with Zhao Yan?

how can that be!

"Take good care of our children, don't feel sad because of my affairs, I assure you, I will give the children a..."

Just as Huo Xun was talking, there was a knock on the door, and Zhu Yun's voice suddenly came from outside, as if he was about to open the door to come in.

Worried that he would be exposed, Huo Xun took a deep look at Xiao Ruan, stepped back quickly, and jumped out of the window.

"Miss, when did you wake up? You were talking just now?"

Zhuyun turned on the lamp, and the room became bright instantly. Seeing that Xiao Ruan had woken up, she asked immediately.

Xiao Ruan glanced at the open window opposite, and shook her head lightly: "Maybe I said something in my sleep, I don't remember it, you go down."

Zhuyun sized up Xiao Ruan carefully, and seeing that there was nothing unusual about her, she immediately nodded meekly and stepped back slowly.

The room quickly became quiet again, with a breeze blowing in from the window, making a rustling sound.Xiao Ruan pricked up her ears and listened quietly for a long time, but she didn't hear anything unusual again.

There was a rooster crowing in the distance, and the night in the room seemed to fade a little unconsciously. Through the gauze-like night, she finally retracted her gaze from the window sill, and slowly closed her eyes...

Chendao Wharf is the largest wharf in the capital city. Countless cargo ships and passenger ships gather here, and countless people work here to make a living.

Standing on the bank of the river and looking at it, there are countless big and small boats on the river, and there are busy and prosperous scenes everywhere.

"Ma'am, have you seen the cargo ship tied with red silk? All the goods Cheng Kuo got were shipped to this ship."

Following Li Yun's line of sight, Xiao Ruan saw a cargo ship with red silk tied to its mast among a group of dilapidated ships.

The cargo ship wasn't that big, and it looked like it was only fifty feet long, but judging from the water marks on the hull, it wasn't shallow at all, and it was obviously often filled with heavy things.

"The servant girl found Cheng Kuo's goods, first got them from Qianji Trading Company, and then shipped them out by this ship."

Xiao Ruan stared at the boat, and there was a dark tide in his eyes, but he couldn't see what emotion it was.

After a while, she turned her head to look at Li Yun, and said in a deep voice: "Since Cheng Kuo got these goods from Qianji Trading Company, you may find out where Qianji Trading Company got these goods from? And , where does this ship deliver the cargo to?"

"This servant has indeed investigated, but there are too many merchants involved in Qianji Trading Company, and the servant has not yet investigated which one it is. As for this ship, it is transported to Tongcheng."

Li Yun's face was troubled, as if he felt ashamed because he didn't investigate Xiao Ruan about me, but Xiao Ruan smiled lightly and shook his head lightly at her: "It doesn't matter, no matter where they come from, we can't find out. If you do, others will be able to find it too.”

"Madam, you..."

"You don't have to say too much, I have my own opinions."

Xiao Ruan directly interrupted Li Yun's words, looked firmly at the red silk on the cargo ship in the distance, and remained silent.

Jiang Feng blew up Xiao Ruan's skirt and hair. For some reason, Li Yun felt that this person had a certain chance of winning.Perhaps she was infected, and the uneasiness in her heart quickly disappeared without a trace, and she immediately nodded emphatically with her.

"This servant will definitely live up to your expectations... be careful, madam!"

Before Li Yun finished speaking, the expression on his face changed suddenly. Before Xiao Ruan could understand what happened, a black shadow flashed in the corner of his eyes, and he was hit by someone.

The sudden impact, although the force was not strong, but because Xiao Ruan was unprepared, his whole body fell straight to one side.

In the blink of an eye, Xiao Ruan thought she was about to fall heavily to the ground, when suddenly a strong force came from her hand, straightening her body and finally maintaining her balance.

But at this moment, a scream came from not far away, Xiao Ruan turned around, and suddenly found a thin man hugging his leg and moaning on the ground.

The man's complexion was slightly dark, he was wearing a gray jacket, and his appearance was very ordinary. If Li Yun hadn't caught him, Xiao Ruan would never have recognized that he was the one who bumped into him just now.

"Ma'am, he bumped into you just now!"

Li Yun supported Xiao Ruan and stepped forward, stepped on the man's hand and yelled: "Who are you! You are here to hurt my wife!"

"Ah! It hurts, it hurts! The heroine spares my life! The heroine spares my life! This is all a misunderstanding!"

The man suffered from pain in his hand, and let out a pig-like howl, which soon attracted people around to stop and watch.And at this moment, another tall, thin man in gray shirt rushed over from the crowd, and rushed towards Li Yun and Xiao Ruan without saying a word.

However, before the opponent's hand touched Xiao Ruan, Li Yun's pupils shrank suddenly, and with a kick of his toe, he shot a stone on the ground towards the man's knee.

The thin and tall man only had time to let out a muffled groan before he also fell to the ground.

"Tell me! Who sent you here! If you don't tell me, the sword in my hand doesn't have eyes!"

There was a "shua" sound in the air, and Li Yun drew a sharp arrow from behind and pointed it at the man's neck.

The tip of the sword was shiny, shining a ray of light in the sun, and the thin man who rushed over from behind panicked, knelt down and kowtowed, begging at the same time.

"Madam, it's our brother's fault today. It's our blindness that wants to steal your money. We won't dare to do it again next time. Please spare us two brothers!"

Seeing this, the short man quickly got up from the ground and kowtowed at them like pounding garlic.He also took out a money bag from his pocket and handed over a piece of jade pendant.

Li Yun looked down and found that the money bag on his waist was gone, and the suet jade on Xiao Ruan's waist was also gone.

"Madam, if these two dared to steal our things today, they must have stolen other people's things too. Should we turn them over to the government?"

Li Yun is highly skilled in martial arts, but he never expected that today he would fall into the tricks of these two thieves and easily lose his money, and he was extremely annoyed.Immediately turned to look at Xiao Ruan, wanting to send the two of them to prison.

And these two people were obviously terrified of the government, as soon as they heard this, they kowtowed to Xiao Ruan and begged for mercy.

"Ma'am, haven't we already exchanged the purse and jade pendant for you? Please don't send us to the government!"

Holding the jade pendant in his hand, Xiao Ruan stared at the two of them thoughtfully, a gleam flashed in his eyes, and he slowly curled his mouth: "It's okay if you don't want to see the official, but you two have to help me do it." one thing."

The two originally thought that Xiao Ruan was just a pregnant woman, and if she stole her things, she would not be able to catch up.It never occurred to her that the servant girl on her body turned out to be a master who didn't show her figure, and she cleaned them up just by tiptoeing, and she was even more scared to death.

Hearing that Xiao Ruan might let them go at this time, it was just a wish.

"Listen well, I will only say the following once, so that if you help me get it done, I will reward you a lot. But if you don't get it done, then you can figure it out yourself."
