C88 (1/2)

That was what he said.

But Wen Jiu still felt that this was inappropriate. If there was even a chance, his General's Mansion would be in danger.

She felt slightly uneasy in her heart.

Xie Xuan's plain clothes were drenched by the rain and stuck to her body. However, the youth did not seem to notice, and looked at her with eyes as black as ink, ”Sooner or later, what are you afraid of?”

Wen Jiu, ”...”

It seemed to make sense.

The cold rain fell on her face, causing her rationality to return to normal.

Things have already happened. Rather than worrying that his life would be in danger, it would be better to solve the problem before him this way.

She looked at the young man in front of her again and realized although Third Brother's words weren't pleasant to listen to, there was nothing wrong with it.

Xie Xuan said: ”Go take a bath!”

Wen Jiu wiped his face, ”... ”Alright.”

The servants stood not far away, and peeked over. Normally, it was the Young Madame s who were in charge, but now, looking at the Third Young Master who was usually silent, his aura seemed to be even more imposing than before.

Wen Jiu thought deeply and returned to his own courtyard. Only then did he realise that he was covered in rain, and could not help but shiver from the cold.

Jin Er and the servants had prepared hot water, and said softly: ”Young Madame, you can bathe now.”

”Yes.”

Wen Jiu's reaction was slow, ”All of you can leave.”

Everyone replied and left. Although the three masters of General's Mansion had different personalities, they similarly did not like others to get close to them.

As he sat in the bath that was filled with hot air, images of the tall building he fell to in his previous life appeared before his eyes continuously. The words that Zhao Fan had said, the palace lamp's afterimages and the scenery on the rainy mountain superimposed onto each other.

She almost lost her breath as she held a handful of hot water to wash her face. Only then did she wake up a little.

”Young Madame... Are you okay? ” Jin Er worriedly asked as he knocked on the door.

”I'm fine.”

Wen Jiu put on his clothes and pushed open the door. It was unknown when the sky outside had darkened, but cold wind and rain continued to pass through the hall. Xiao Xiao's fallen leaves swept over and covered the ground.

The youth in plain clothes stood in front of the court and coincidentally turned around at this moment to look.

Wen Jiu opened his mouth, but no sound came out.

Xie Xuan said: ”Wipe your hair dry, and go to bed.”

She stood still.

Jin Er came over to help her, ”Young Madame?”

Wen Jiu looked at Xie Xuan for a moment. The young man's expression was light, and there was still some cold Qi on his body. It was just that at this moment, she felt relieved when she saw such a person.

She was stunned for a moment.

Xie Xuan had already walked over to her, and stared at her for a long time, ”Are you really scared?”

”No …”

Wen Jiu squeezed out a single word after a long while.

”Panic?”

Xie Xuan asked her.

Wen Jiu was slightly stunned, and then nodded.

In any case, he had already done something even more humiliating, so it wasn't as bad as this time.

The youth frowned. ”What should I do?”

If Wen Jiu knew, he would not be so flustered, but the youth asked this seriously. She thought for a long time, then opened her mouth: ”Probably better if you have some silver ….”

That was how she used to be.

Xie Xuan was slightly stunned, and after a moment, he took a glance at the door, and only said two words.

Wen Jiu acknowledged, and turned to enter the hut.

With a cold expression, the youth turned around and left.

”Young Madame, Third Young Master, he …” Jin Er followed beside Wen Jiu, but he could not explain why the two of them were so incompatible.

The Third Young Master was obviously very concerned about the Three Young Madame s, but after coming together, they could not even say a few words before collapsing.

Isn't this the same as being able to counter him with eight words?
