46. The Secret (2)
Yu Qingjia thought that Murong Yan was referring to Yin Zhu and the coachman outside the carriage, so she immediately nodded and said,
âSo thatâs it, I understand.â
Indeed, with Murong Yanâs picky to the extreme personality, how would he be willing to take off his mask in a crowded place and let the coachman see his real face.
Murong Yan just raised his eyes and glanced at her, then said,
âYou donât understand.â
Yu Qingjia glared at him displeasedly,
âWho are you underestimating? You always call me stupid, but do you really think I donât even care about such a simple matter, and didnât even know why you didnât want to come along?â
Murong Yan stopped talking.
The outsider he was referring to, was definitely not the maid or the coachmen, but Zheng Er who was under the carriage at that time.
Although he took the risk to rescue Zheng Er personally today, business affairs are still different from personal affairs.
Murong Yan didnât want Zheng Er and the others to know the details of his relationship with Yu Qingjia.
âIâm afraid she definitely has the brains of a fish.â
She obviously sensed that something was wrong earlier, but when he told her not to do anything, she really didnât.
How long has it been since they came back, but sheâs completely forgotten it.
After thinking that she really knew the reason behind Murong Yanâs anomaly, the knot that had been in her heart was finally untied, and Yu Qingjiaâs inexplicable discomfort immediately dissipated.
She then casually played with the silver mask in her hand, and Murong did not stop her, she even buckled the mask on her face, and deliberately lowered her voice and said to Murong Yan in a very majestic tone,
âLook, am I scary like this?â
Murong Yan took a look and leisurely said,
âPut it down, you look stupid.â
Yu Qingjia then slammed the mask upside down on the table and gave Murong Yan a furious glare.
She had enough of playing and finally remembered that her purpose for coming here wasnât fulfilled yet, so she closed her eyes and said,
âQuickly undress. Stop wasting a lot of time, itâs time to change your bandages.â
Yu Qingjia waited for a while, then opened her eyes curiously,
âWhy are you not moving?â
Murong Yanâs eyebrows twitched again.
Why does her words always sound strange?
In the end, Murong Yan couldnât bear it anymore, and said coldly,
âShut up.â
Yu Qingjia curled her lips, and really stopped talking.
When she opened her eyes and saw Murong Yanâs tight and muscular upper body, her face turned red again.
So, since she had to see it anyway, why did she even close her eyes just now?
She then started rebuking herself while tending his injuries.
Murong Yan is obviously a man, and she is a young unmarried lady, no matter how you look at it, Murong Yan is obviously the one taking advantage of her.
So why is she embarrassed?
The injuries on Murong Yanâs back really tore up again, some places were even swollen, and now bright red blood is seeping out.
Yu Qingjia was gradually immersed in the injury in front of her.
She no longer had the time to think about anything else.
When the wound was finally cleaned with wine, she replaced it with new medicine, and rewrapped the bandages, and time passed for a long time.
Murong Yan was putting on his inner robe and black suit, while Yu Qingjia was busy fiddling around to pack things.
She had nothing to do, so she casually asked,
âSo why did you come, when I was about to play the Zither?â
Yu Qingjia knew that since Murong Yan had changed into a black suit, and covered his face with a mask, it showed that he was probably going to do something dangerous and secretive again today.
But in this situation, Murong Yan actually ventured back to the water pavilion, although he flicked out the lights inside, but at that time Prince Yingchuan was still sitting on the opposite side.
It was still an extremely dangerous thing for him to do so.
Murong Yan chuckled for a while, and looked at Yu Qingjia amused,
âIf Iâm not there, how do you plan to finish it?â
If Murong Yan wasnât there, then Yu Qingjia might still be able to win over the system, but itâs probably impossible to win as beautifully and devastatingly as tonight.
She was aware of this, since Murong Yan was willing to risk coming back, just to help her, she was actually very surprised and somewhat touched.
âThank you.â
Yu Qingjia put down the things in her hands, and said in a rare solemn tone, âI really appreciate your favor today, and if you need anything from me in the future, you can also ask me for something.â
Murong Yan then thought to himself, If he really needed Yu Qingjiaâs help for anything someday, if that day really comes, then he must have been utterly defeated, and had nowhere to go.
This means, Yu Qingjiaâs promise would be completely useless. Murong Yan didnât take it seriously, but Yu Qingjia was very serious.
She paused, as if she finally made up her mind, and suddenly said,
âFox spirit, in fact, today⦠Yu Qingya â¦â¦â
Murong Yan suddenly turned back, his pair of eyes fixed on her.
Yu Qingjia was stunned by his gaze, and suddenly forgot the words that she wanted to say.
She actually had the intention of retreating, but she thought that since he risked his life, and came back to help her today, if she still hid it from him, then if the system did something to him in the future, he wouldnât be able to react.
Sheâll only feel like sheâs being too heartless and untrustworthy.
This is why she gritted her teeth, afraid that she would regret it again, so she closed her eyes and said,
âYou are right. Yu Qingya is not the person who played the Zither before and after. Another thing was parasitizing her body. Itâs not quite appropriate to say that itâs another person, but you might as well interpret it like Itâs a demonic and powerful entity, with abilities far above the ordinary people in our world.â
