C26 (1/2)
On a night like this, she was in such an awkward situation. It was impossible for her shoulders to not be horrified by such a pat. Fortunately, she had a strong mental fortitude and only felt a little panicked. She quickly calmed down.
”Miss Mute, why are you running around outside so late at night?” Hearing that voice, Yuwen Xi remembered, and immediately turned to look, it was the young master in embroidered clothes who was captured in the middle of the night. Don't you trust her?
It was still a month away, there was no need to be in such a hurry.
There was only one woman following beside the young master of the embroidered clothes, and she was one of the women he had seen last time. When Yuwen Xi looked into the eyes of the young master of the embroidered clothes, she was slightly startled.
”Let's talk inside.” The young master dressed in embroidered clothes walked into Yuwen Xi's residence first. Yuwen Xi looked at his back in displeasure, as if he was the master and she was the guest.
After entering the house, Yuwen Xi wrote on the paper, ”If you have something to say, quickly say it, I have urgent matters to attend to.”
”Is there an emergency?” Do you need help? ” The young master in embroidered clothes seemed to be very friendly, causing Yuwen Xi to feel overwhelmed from the favor. Her first reaction was naturally to refuse, but then again, why didn't she let him help?
She immediately wrote on the paper, ”I was locked in Woodshed, and am now running out. I haven't eaten yet, so I'm going to eat first and then take a portion of the food in.” After recounting his current situation, the young master nodded his head in understanding.
”Let's go to the kitchen and get a few dishes.” The young master in embroidered clothes ordered his subordinates, and the woman, with no questions asked, followed Yuwen Xi into the kitchen.
Yuwen Xi looked at the young master in embroidered clothes, feeling that this man was quite capable. He actually had such a beautiful maid or subordinate by his side, who knew what kind of person he was.
”Have you made any progress recently?” The young master sat down and surveyed his surroundings and realized that it was extremely simple and crude.
Yuwen Xi shook her head, she had not started doing this yet, how could she make any progress?
”You think a month's time is long, but it's actually very short.”
”Please don't make such a funny joke. I know very well that my current situation isn't suitable for me to steal pictures.” Yuwen Xi didn't know whether he was joking or not, but she was very clear about the situation. She was still poisoned, but what kind of situation would she be in after the poison flared up?
She thought for a moment and continued writing. ”How should I address you?”
She didn't ask for his name, she just wanted to know how to address him. A code name was fine, otherwise she wouldn't even know who she was working with. That would be too insincere.
The young master took the pen from Yuwen Xi's hand and wrote two words on the paper: Zi Chuan.
Yuwen Xi glanced at him and nodded, she did not care if what he said was true or not, she also wrote down: Yuwen Xi.
This was called being polite. Even if the other party was a big shot, she had to say her name. It was your business whether or not she wanted to remember, and it was her business whether to report it.
Zi Chuan nodded, he knew that there was a mute girl called Yuwen Xi in the Yu Wen Family, it was nothing much, but the news that spread out seemed to be different from what he had seen with his own eyes, although she did not look much, but her personality was very suitable for his taste.
Initially, he was still a little worried that she wouldn't be able to steal the Flowing Light and Broken Jade Picture, but looking at it now, he could take a gamble.
”Why were you locked in the Woodshed?” Zi Chuan seemed to be a little interested in Yuwen Xi, since he had nothing better to do anyway.
Even though it was General Mansion, the guards were very relaxed, especially in such a remote courtyard.
Yuwen Xi sighed, and wrote down his situation. It was relatively short, but it was a good summary, and after Zi Chuan finished reading, he laughed, ”I didn't expect you to be so deep in the abyss of hell, how about this, after you steal the Flowing Light and Broken Jade Picture s, I'll bring you out of here?”
Zi Chuan's words startled Yuwen Xi. She didn't expect him to say this, the two of them shouldn't have any sort of relationship.
”You want me to become your subordinate?” This was the only possibility she could think of.
Zi Chuan laughed and nodded. Yuwen Xi scoffed lightly and shook her head, she didn't even write a word, she felt that she didn't need to write anymore. She didn't have the habit of being someone else's subordinate.
His nose moved, and when he smelled the fragrance, he immediately beamed with joy. It was time to eat.
”The cooking is rather slow. I've only cooked a bowl of noodles and a few side dishes. I hope Miss doesn't mind.” Jing Yuan placed the noodles and vegetables on the table. Her tone was calm and polite.
Yuwen Xi laughed and immediately began to eat. She was already very happy with the food, how could she be picky about it?
”Do you know what Flowing Light and Broken Jade Picture looks like?” Zi Chuan waited for Yuwen Xi to finish eating before he asked, how could a girl eat so much? I hate to talk to her while she eats.
If Yuwen Xi knew what Zi Chuan was thinking, she would definitely be angered to death. Try not to eat for a day, let's see how you can eat elegantly!
She wrote a set of words to Jingyuan for her servant, Yin Lian, to prepare a copy for her. In a while, she had to bring it over to Yin Lian as well, so that her little body wouldn't starve.
