2545 The Banquet of Treachery 4 (1/2)

”Why? Is there still any other thing?” Calmly, Jun Wu Xie asked.

Old He suddenly recovered from the daze and quickly responded. ”No, no! This old one here will now bring Young Master there. Young Master is certainly a sensible person, please follow me.”

Speaking, Old He stretched open his arm as he gave his way out so that Jun Wu Xie could leave her seat first.

While watching Jun Wu Xie leaving, the curiosity of every single person there was left hanging in suspension. How they wished they could follow them and have a look on what was going on.

However, the moment Jun Wu Xie just left the banquet, Yan Wan had already stepped forward with his speech explaining that the reason she left was just to have some conversation with the City Lady, and this had successfully reassured quite a number of people.

On the other side, following behind Old He, Jun Wu Xie walked through the long corridor from the front yard to the backyard of the official residence.

It was completely silent inside the yard with only the moonlight showering on the tranquil compound. There were quite a lot of flowering plants in the yard, giving out a delicate fragrance. There was the brightness of the candlelight coming out from the house in the yard. Old He brought Jun Wu Xie to the front of the door and stopped his steps.

”Young Master, please wait for a moment, let this old one here inform the Mistress first,” said Old He.

Jun Wu Xie slightly nodded her head.

Old He knocked on the door and there came a little maid quietly opened a narrow gap of the door from inside the room. After she saw that it was Old He who had knocked on the door, only then she let him in.

Jun Wu Xie waited for quite a long time outside the door. With the beam of the candlelight, all she could see on the window was only the shadows of the two people inside the room, seemingly to be talking about something.

After waiting for a while, Old He finally walked out from the room. Upon seeing Jun Wu Xie, he then smiled and said, ”The Mistress is in the room. This old one here has already informed her. The mood of the Mistress has stabilized quite a lot, please do convince her well, Young Master. Everything that has been prepared today was all out of the Master's good intention, if the Mistress insists on not showing up, it will be difficult for us to explain to the guests outside there.”
