C6 (1/2)

As the footsteps got closer, Shen Qingyi could tell that it was He Sinan.

He came back a day early?

He Sinan walked up to the pavilion step by step with a deep look in his eyes. He had returned from the chaos in the south of the city and for some reason, when he made his trusted aide wait in the study room, he somehow walked all the way here.

”Did you reflect it clearly?”

In the slightly pitch-black night, Shen Qingyi was unable to see clearly what He Sinan's expression was, and could only hear his cold and indifferent voice as usual.

”Congratulations …” Cough cough, it's rare to see me. ”

Shen Qingyi's voice was weak but her eyes were clear. She looked at He Sinan and said, ”I'm not in the wrong, why would I think about it?”

Hearing that, He Sinan's eyes turned cold, ”You still do not know how to repent.”

At this moment, the sound of hurried footsteps could be heard on the stairs.

”Knock, knock, knock!”

Luo Bin quickly went up the stairs and reported.

”Sir, just now, Miss Yun Ya's little girl ran over to the study room to ask for help. She said that someone had barged into Miss Yun Ya's room, and that Miss Yun Ya was in danger!”

A look of worry suddenly flashed across He Sinan's face.

”Bring her along!”

He did not look at Shen Qingyi anymore and turned, walking quickly towards the door.

Shen Qingyi watched him leave in a hurry, and felt an indescribable unease in his heart. Yun Ya had been protected so well by He Sinan … How could there be danger?

She was unshackled by Luo Bin and followed along with him to the Orchid Yard.

It was already night but the Orchid Yard was brightly lit.

No one dared to speak as they stared at the two people in the lobby.

When He Sinan hurried over, Yun Ya's clothes were untidy, and he was being held hostage by a man dressed in a guard's uniform, with the blade held against Yun Ya's neck.

He Sinan's eyes turned cold.

”Put down the knife!”

He had just returned from the south side of the city and was still wearing his uniform. His eyes were narrowed and he looked exceptionally fierce.

Yun Ya cried her heart out, ”Si Nan, save me!”

He Sinan walked forward step by step as he stared at the guard with a frightening expression.

”I told you to put the knife down!”

The guard suddenly released his hand and threw himself onto the ground. He kowtowed with all his might, and begged with his snot and tears: ”Please spare my life, it's all Young Madem … Young Madem ordered me to do it! It was only because I was in a daze that I was bought by the Young Madem. I beg that the Lord be magnanimous and spare my life! ”

With that, he took out a silver hairpin from his pocket.

The surrounding servants burst into an uproar.

Big brother Si Nan, wuu …” Yun Ya seemed to be frightened and threw herself into He Si Nan's embrace. She cried and said, ”It's great that you came back. He almost beat me up just now … Make Me... ”Elder sister, how could you treat me like this!

”Don't be afraid, I'm here.”
