C113 (1/2)

Wen Jiu once again fell into a nightmare. She could not see the man's face clearly, and her body was curled up in pain.

Despair quietly filled his heart.

Kill him!

Wen Jiu only had this thought.

However, someone called out to her in a low voice.

The ”Jiu” was a warmth that broke through the cold winter night and woke her up from her nightmare. Wen Jiu suddenly opened his eyes and saw that the youth was standing in front of his chair with an octagonal cutting paper lantern.

He bent down slightly, and the smell of alcohol quietly assaulted his nostrils. Xie Heng said with a smile: ”Why are you so cowardly when you meet Third Young Master? Don't worry, he was pulled by Zhou Minghao to drink a few more jugs, and is currently drunk, so he didn't have time to scold you. ”

Wen Jiu opened her mouth, but no sound came out from her ”brother”, as though she had suddenly lost her voice.

Her thoughts were still trapped in the dream. Her entire body was covered in cold sweat, and when the night wind blew, her entire body couldn't help but tremble.

This person even thought that she would be taught a lesson by Xie Xuan if she went to Yongle Workshop today.

That's right, with Xie Xuan's personality, if he knew she was going to that place, he would probably teach her a lesson and make her lose face to go out.

If they knew that her innocence had been destroyed before Xie's Mansion, how would they look at her?

Wen Jiu thought until this point, her small face became even paler.

”Why is your face so white? You caught a cold? ”

Xie Heng raised his hand and hung the lantern on the Plum Blossom Tree. He wanted to use his hands to feel the temperature on her forehead, but Wen Jiu suddenly grabbed his wide sleeves.

The young girl curled up on the chair, weak as if she was unable to withstand the force of the wind.

Even so, she did not touch Xie Heng at all. However, she was holding his sleeve so tightly, it was as if a drowning person had to meet a floating log in the water and see the last bit of daylight in despair.

Wen Jiu's white lips slightly opened, as she raised her head to look at the youth. Her pair of starry eyes faintly reddened. If there comes a day when you know that I am not worthy of the Fifth Young Master at all, will … Drive me out of the Xie Family? ”

”What kind of nonsense are you spouting!”

Xie Heng was angry and amused at the same time. He wanted to raise his hand and knock the young lady awake, but he couldn't move for a moment since she had pulled on his sleeves so tightly.

When the General Xie, who always acted cleanly, was in trouble, he could not help but feel somewhat helpless in his heart: Could it be that this young lady has so many thoughts in her heart?

The red tassels on the lantern drooped, lightly brushing past the corner of Xie Heng's brows, unintentionally adding a bit of prettiness to her appearance. But he himself was not aware of it, he raised his hand and casually pushed it away, while his elbow rested on the Plum Blossom Tree and his other sleeve was held by Wen Jiu.

A falling flower quietly left the branch and gently fell down.

The youth lowered his gaze and carefully looked her over, ”I only said a few words of yours, it's not enough to make you feel like … Will it be as serious as kicking you out of the house? ”

She wanted to do business, wanted to show her face outside, Xie Heng did not even think of restraining her. But to go to a place like Yongle Workshop was too outrageous! If someone else's wife or young miss went to the Yongle Workshop and was caught, breaking her legs would be considered light.

She didn't receive any punishments nor did she receive any punishments, so why would she start having nightmares?

Wen Jiu's white lips slightly moved, but she did not say anything.

Xie Heng let out a soft sigh, and laughed helplessly: ”Young Madame's face is so pitifully pale, it seems like I am wrong.”
