Chapter: 125 out of 513 - Unable to peacefully sleep (2)
Ning Yuxuan was still in a bad mood. Seeing her leave, he thought that she would probably still come back. And so, he didn't chase after her.
However, after he lied on the bed for a while and his anger had disappeared, the doors were still open. The cold wind blew inside and Nie Sangyu still hadn't return.

Feeling slightly unsettled because of her last words, Marquis Moyu couldn't lie in bed any longer. He put on his outer clothing and headed outside.
Spring had started and the snow was melting, but it was still chilly outside. He had only walked a few steps before his shoes had gotten soaked. Ning Yuxuan walked around the entire Feiwan Courtyard, but he couldn't find Nie Sangyu and had also unintentionally awoken Muxu.
Muxu was scared to death from seeing Marquis Moyu opening her doors in the middle of the night. She grabbed her quilt and blankly looked at him. ”Marquis?”
What was he going to do to her? Didn't he have her master to serve him? Why had he come to her room? During this period of shock, Muxu's heart was palpating very quickly. However, before she had time to say another word, Marquis Moyu had already left after scanning the room.
Originally, he had wanted to order a few servant girls to look for Nie Sangyu. However, he couldn't bear the loss in face if other people found out. Since he had driven her away, why was he looking for her now? Moreover, the object of his search was a woman that he had disliked for a long time.
Feeling bothered and gloomy, he left Feiwan Courtyard and went to the garden to look for Nie Sangyu.
Pa.s.sing through the garden, he saw a person in the pavilion. Marquis Moyu called out, ”Who's there?”
Ning Mingjie turned his head slightly and chuckled. ”Yuxuan, why are you awake so late at night too?”
So, it was him. Ning Yuxuan relaxed, coughed once, and said, ”The moon looks nice tonight. I was just strolling around.”
Ning Mingjie slightly froze in surprise for a moment. He raised his head and looked at the dark sky.
”It's not early anymore. I should go back to rest. Cousin, you should go to sleep too.” Ning Yuxuan turned his head away and looked rather pitiful as he walked away.
”En, you can go. I've gotten used to sleeping during the day. I really can't fall asleep at night anymore.”
Marqyus Moyu didn't understand the meaning of his words and merely thought that Ning Mingjie had messed up his sense of day and night during their trip. Thus, he didn't ask any others questions and hurriedly went elsewhere to look.
After walking around the entire residence and waking up a lot of people, Ning Yuxuan still hadn't found Nie Sangyu. Feeling anxious, he returned to the garden and asked Ning Mingjie, ”Have you see Sangyu pa.s.sing by here?”
Ning Mingjie raised his eyebrows, ”It's the middle of the night. Why would she be going outside?”
