Being a cannon fodder female supporting role is not as good as marrying a lucky villain
Chapter 17: Raiders who take the initiative to send to the door
"There's an assassin!"
In the quiet hours of the night, a sharp shout rang out.
Gu Ning woke up from her sleep and stared out the window in confusion.
At this sight, she became wary.
Chunyu acted appropriately and checked the doors and windows several times every day before leaving.
But at this time, there was a gap in the window, and a chilly breeze was blowing the curtains.
She squeezed the dagger under the pillow tightly, her eyes lowered, and she seemed very sleepy, but in fact she had mobilized all the strength in her body.
A bug in the system wiped out everything she had worked for for many years, leaving only a broken Dantian that traveled through time with her. And after practicing hard for several days, she only accumulated a little bit of spiritual energy, and there was no more.
possibility of improvement.
Coupled with her frail body, this small amount of spiritual energy can only be used in critical moments.
At this moment, a black shadow walked out from behind the curtain.
Gu Ning held her breath as the dagger with a cold light flashed past in the night.
The next moment, there was a "bang" sound, the dagger was knocked down, a familiar cold breath came over her face, and her wrist was pinched tightly.
The system in standby woke up at this time, and the beep sounded continuously.
"Luck value, luck value 2..."
The system made an excited sound, and the automatic extraction function was turned on.
Gu Ning felt a numbness in half of her body and fell uncontrollably towards Xie Yan.
"Ouch", Gu Ning collapsed softly into Xie Yan's arms.
She met Xie Yan's gaze and quickly made amends.
"You pinched me."
She shouted softly, raised her eyes delicately, and looked at Xie Yan with tears in her eyes.
Xie Yan frowned slightly, his handsome face still cold, but the strength in his hands was relieved due to Gu Ning's words.
Looking at the red marks on Gu Ning's excessively fair wrist, Xie Yan didn't know what to think of. His Adam's apple slid slightly and his voice became hoarse: "County Lord, subordinate..."
"Open the door! Your Highness wants to search for the assassin!"
A shout outside the door interrupted the ambiguous atmosphere between the two.
Gu Ning was shocked. In the blink of an eye, she suddenly understood why Xie Banyan came to her door.
"You went to assassinate Chu Yunyi?"
Her peach blossom eyes were wide-open, and she could not hide the surprise in her eyes.
However, in Xie Yan's eyes, she was worried about Chu Yunyi.
Xie Yan pursed her thin lips tightly, revealing a sarcastic arc.
All the illusions in the past few days have confused him. He actually thought that Gu Ning had no intention of Chu Yunyi...
If the news had not been leaked, his whereabouts would not have been discovered. He hid in Gu Ning Court just because the two houses were not far from each other, which was a helpless move.
With his skills, if he wanted to escape from under the eyes of those guards, he would just have to pay a higher price.
Without much hesitation, he turned around and left.
However, the next moment, his sleeve was grabbed by someone.
"They are all chasing me here. If you leave now, wouldn't you just throw yourself into a trap?" Gu Ning said nonchalantly and neatly locked the doors and windows with one hand.
Xie Yan was stunned for a moment, then returned to his indifferent expression.
He wanted to see what other tricks this woman would play!
However, Gu Ning pushed him onto the bed and reached for his belt with one hand.
Those memories that had been buried deep in his heart suddenly emerged. Xie Yan's ears turned red and he said in a cold voice: "County Lord, you..."
"You smell of blood. If they really break in, they will definitely notice it." Gu Ning said placidly, "It's better to take it off first and throw it out the window."
Just when she was about to continue taking action, she was stopped by Xie Yan.
"County Lord, my subordinates can do it themselves."
Gu Ning sighed regretfully, her eyes always falling on Xie Yan's smooth back. If she could touch it, how much luck would it bring!
This gaze was like a gleam on the back, and Xie Yan's movements sped up a bit.
When Gu Ning took the clothes, he pretended to accidentally touch them across Xie Yan's palm.
She looked calm, as if what she had just done was normal.
Xie Yan lowered his eyes, covering the strange color under his eyes.
There was already a commotion outside the door, and Chunyu's angry voice was particularly obvious among them.
"How could you just break into the county master's boudoir?"
"You said the assassin went here and went here? If the reputation of the county lord is damaged, can you afford it?"
Chunyu fought with everyone by talking alone, blocking the door with the posture of one man blocking the way and preventing ten thousand others from opening.
Her words naturally made many people fearful.
If the assassin is not caught and the Changning County Lord is offended, I am afraid...
Just as they were hesitating, a man walked over quickly, escorted by many fierce guards.
Seeing the person coming, Chunyu was startled and quickly knelt down.
"See Your Highness!"
"No need to be polite."
Even though his face was pale, Chu Yunyi was still the same Prince Duan who looked like a spring breeze.
There was no cold look on his face, and he only said warmly: "Ning'er is my fiancée. I went in alone to search, so naturally it won't damage her reputation. What do you think of Miss Chunyu?"
Although his tone was questioning, he was already approaching the door.
Chunyu stood aside with her head bowed and whispered: "I think this is inappropriate. Although your highness and the county master have a marriage contract, they are not married yet, so they cannot be regarded as a real couple."
"alright."
At this time, the door was opened.
Gu Ning was wearing a robe and standing on the steps.
"Your Highness can search if he wants."
When she lowered her eyes and looked up, like a goddess aloof, Chu Yunyi's heartbeat stopped for a moment.
He soon came back to his senses and stepped forward with a smile: "Ning'er, don't worry, I will tell them to be careful."
As soon as Chu Yunyi finished speaking, the guards behind him quickly walked out and menacingly entered the house to search.
But at this time, Gu Ning raised a hand and stopped the leader.
She looked impatient, and there was a haze between her stunningly beautiful eyebrows: "Only one person can be allowed in."
Chu Yunyi had long been accustomed to her temper. It was not easy to get her to let go this time, so he no longer cared about these details. He just nodded and said to his confidant: "Duan Zhi, you go in and search alone."
"yes!"
Duan Zhi bowed to Gu Ning and then strode in.
Gu Ning pursed his lips towards Chunyu and said dissatisfiedly: "Go and keep an eye on it, don't let him mess up the furnishings in my room."
When Chunyu heard this, she almost couldn't keep the expression on her face.
Although she had only been with her county master for a short period of ten days, she knew very well that the county master's words were by no means as simple as they appeared. She was afraid that... there really was an assassin that King Duan was looking for in this house!
Chunyu maintained the stiff smile on her face and strode in.
As soon as Duan Zhi entered the room, the incense hit his face.
He sneezed loudly and touched his nose, secretly alerting himself.
"I have never seen the county master use such a strong incense."
Chunyu was nervous, but her face was very surprised: "His Highness just sent this yesterday. When the princess heard that it was from His Highness, she immediately ordered the slave to order it. Doesn't Guard Duan know?"
Duan Yun knows Gu Ning's obsession with Chu Yunyi better than anyone else.
He thought that a few days ago, in order to show his concern for Gu Ning in front of the eldest princess, His Highness deliberately sent a lot of things to Gu Ning. Those things were so diverse that he could not remember clearly.
Facing Chunyu's curious gaze, Duan Zhi quickly responded: "It does happen, it does happen!"
Duan Zhi did not dare to discuss the matter any more and quickly continued to search the bedroom.
This bedroom is huge, but the things placed there are clearly visible. Not to mention a tall assassin, even a mouse can't hide.
Duan Zhi stopped lingering, walked out quickly, and bowed to Chu Yunyi: "Your Highness, everything is normal in the house, and there is no trace of the assassin."
Before Chu Yunyi could speak, Gu Ning snorted coldly.
"I don't have any assassins here in the first place, but His Highness insists on having someone investigate. It seems he doesn't believe me."
Her beautiful eyes were filled with anger, staring coldly at Chu Yunyi.
This appearance is very familiar to Chu Yunyi, and he has already mastered it.
"It's all my fault." He said softly, "I will take you to play in the city tomorrow, how about it?"
He is extraordinarily handsome, and when he looks at someone intently and affectionately, it is indeed easy for a young girl who is not familiar with the world to feel ripples in her heart.
Gu Ning lowered his head just right to cover up the sarcasm in his eyes.
She said in a sweet and boring tone: "Your Highness cannot break the appointment, otherwise... I will definitely report this matter to my grandmother and ask her to make the decision for me!"
"It's natural." Chu Yunyi agreed, "I'll pick you up tomorrow at midnight."
Gu Ning nodded lightly and watched him leave shyly.
The moment the courtyard door closed, the smile on her face faded completely.
"Pooh!"
Gu Ning rolled his eyes and muttered: "Only a fool would believe these words."
Chunyu followed up in small steps, patted her chest, and said thankfully: "My heart is almost beating out. Fortunately, there is no one in the room."
God knows how panicked she felt after discovering that the incense in the house had been changed.
Before she could fully explain her feelings, she saw the figure behind the curtain.
"This, this, this..."
"It's a thank you banquet."
Gu Ning's tone was calm, as if this was just a small matter.
After Chunyu heard the name, her delicate round face suddenly wrinkled.
"County Master, your engagement with Prince Duan has not yet been terminated. I'm afraid it's not good for you to let the guards be so careless..."
"Besides, Guard Xie is highly valued by the general. If you like handsome men, you can have people search among the people. There is really no need to take action against Guard Xie."
She persuaded her carefully, as if Gu Ning had committed a bully act of robbing civilian men.
Hearing this, Gu Ning's mouth twitched.
"okay."
She raised her hand and interrupted Chunyu's words.
Meeting Chunyu's hesitant gaze, Gu Ning said angrily: "Xie Yan and I are in love with each other, but tonight he took the initiative to come to see me!"
"Really? Thank you, guard?"
Chunyu immediately opened her eyes wide and turned to look at Xie Yan.
A few days ago, Guard Xie was still avoiding the county lord. How long did it take for him to change his attitude?
Behind the curtain, Xie Yan's figure stiffened for a moment.
Finally, he gritted his teeth and said, "Yes."
