Wishful Things

"..."

Hearing these blatant words, Cui Yunqing's heart beat wildly, his face was red and white, and he clutched his fingers tightly.

"Will...how can..."

She just doesn't want to see that sister tortured again!

The smile in Xia Han's eyes grew stronger, and she seemed to be in a good mood.

He held the folding fan in Cui Yunqing's chin, forcing her to raise her head and look at him.

The girl dodged uncomfortably with teary eyes.

He bent down slowly.

Cui Yunqing's whole body seemed to have been immobilized, watching the face getting closer and closer, and the blood on his face faded away.

But at this moment, the sound of footsteps suddenly interrupted Xia Han's movements.

Xu Mingyi slowly retracted the silver needle between his fingers.

"Young master."

The person who came in was a follower, he did not enter the inner room, but stopped in the hall.

"What's the matter?" Xia Han straightened his sleeves and asked.

"Just now someone came to spread the word, saying that the second young lady accidentally fell down the stone steps, and the abdominal pain may have been caused by fetal gas. Right now, the whole house is looking for the young master. Do you want to go back to the house to have a look?"

Xia Han frowned, impatience flashed in his eyes.

But he left the inner room immediately with his followers.

He clearly distinguishes the priorities, even if his affection for his wife is not as deep as it seems on the surface, but it is his wife after all, and she is pregnant with his child.

Seeing him leave, Cui Yunqing's body softened, and he leaned against the bedpost and gasped for breath.

Xu Mingyi walked out from behind the screen, didn't say much, just bent over and hugged Cui Yunqing horizontally.

The girl is so light that it is almost effortless for her.

She wants to take her cousin out of this ghost place.

Cui Yunqing tightly grasped Xu Mingyi's robe, as if only in this way could he feel at ease.

She raised her head from Xu Mingyi's arms.

In the line of sight, the girl was wearing a black night gown, her raven hair was tied up high, showing a bit of heroism, her complexion was snow-white, her lips were spotless and vermilion, and her delicate and clean jaw was tense at this moment.

"Cousin... can we really escape?" Cui Yunqing asked in a low voice.

She felt that she couldn't escape from all of this, even in her dreams, she didn't dare to imagine that she could escape from that person.

Xu Mingyi looked down at the girl in his arms.

Corrected softly: "It's not running away, it's going home."

It doesn't belong to this dark place, so how can it be said that it is an escape, just returning to the place where it should have been.

Cui Yunqing stared at her blankly.

Xu Mingyi left the inner room, not in a hurry, but walked towards another room.

"cousin……"

Cui Yunqing suddenly became nervous again, his lips trembled, and he kept shaking his head.

She didn't want to go, let alone look at it!

Xu Mingyi paused, but turned to look at the entrance of the secret room.

Hearing footsteps, it was obvious that someone had come in again.

She didn't need to guess, she knew it was Ah Zhu without a doubt.

"girl."

Ah Zhu walked over quickly, seeing that her daughter was safe and sound, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

No matter how much she believed in the girl's abilities, she would not dare to leave her side next time.

The man had just led people out of the other courtyard just now, and the sleepy servant was going to the bedroom. She asked her father to guard the outside, and she rushed in without delay.

"Keep watch girl."

Xu Mingyi handed Cui Yunqing in his arms to Ah Zhu, and walked into the room separated by the curtain.

Cousin was not the only one suffering, since she wanted to be rescued, there was no reason to leave anyone behind.

However, even though he had expected it, Xu Mingyi still pursed his lips when he saw the situation in the room clearly.

The layout of this bedroom is not much different from the one where cousin Qing is, and there is also an iron cage.

An emaciated woman leaned against the cage, her hair was in a disheveled bun, and her face with bruises was extremely weak, but her pair of dark eyes were still open, looking at her who came in.

The four eyes met for a moment, and Xu Mingyi strode forward.

"So it's a girl from General Xu's family, no wonder she has such abilities..." The other party pulled the corner of his mouth at her with difficulty, and said in a hoarse voice.

Xu Mingyi squatted down in front of the cage, and asked softly, "Miss, do you recognize me?"

With just this sentence, she could sense that the other party was an extremely tough woman.

Ordinary people have been tortured for so long, how can they even have the thought to chat with others.

The woman nodded slightly, and there was a smile on the corner of her mouth, and she said slowly: "Miss Xu is beautiful and famous in the capital, I will never forget seeing her...Xu Ying, I once had a relationship with Miss Xu in Shangyu Pavilion..."

Xu Mingyi, who had just fumbled out the dagger, paused and looked up at him unexpectedly.

"Master Xu Ying Xu?"

The woman nodded again.

Xu Mingyi was surprised.

It turns out that Master Xu Ying didn't disappear after stealing Jiaojiao's ruby, but was imprisoned here.

The surname Zhou also said that he had been ordered by Zhan Qian to kidnap two women and send them to this other courtyard.

After all, Miss Xu has been imprisoned here for nearly two months...

Two months, as an ordinary person, even if he survived, he would probably be crazy.

Xu Mingyi looked at her scarred hands - these were originally a pair of hands used to carve exquisite jade. The owner of the hands is a girl who has lived a prosperous life in Beijing with her own skills and is worthy of admiration.

Xu Mingyi's urge to tear Xia Han's body into tens of thousands of pieces suddenly became much stronger.

She clenched the dagger tightly, trying to pry the copper lock open.

However, there was a hand holding the back of her hand.

"Miss Xu..."

Xu Ying shook her head at her, her dry lips were oozing scarlet blood as she spoke, "I appreciate Miss Xu's kindness, but I can't leave... If I leave too, I will go back to the government to testify. There is also no evidence to prove that Xia Han did all of this, let alone... I was once imprisoned here by him...

The Xia family is so powerful, if there is no such evidence, they will not be able to move him at all... If this is the case, wouldn't the torture of this beast be in vain. "

Xu Mingyi was silent.

She naturally knows this too.

The reason why he wanted to take the two of them away without hesitation was because he couldn't bear to let them stay here for a while, and also because he couldn't make a decision for them and let them stay here as "evidence" to appear in front of others.

"Only by letting the people from the government find out here and expose this matter in front of others, can I prove that what happened to me is true..."

Xu Yingying said slowly: "Miss Cui is still innocent, she was born in the uncle's house, and she is still young, so she still needs to preserve her reputation...Miss Xu, please take Miss Cui away. As for my affairs, I have a sense of proportion in my heart." ..."

Seeing that the girl in front of her did not get up and leave for a long time, she smiled, and said: "If Miss Xu still wants to help me, she will report this matter to the government, so that I can get my wish and expose what this beast has done as soon as possible." ... If it's inconvenient, it's okay, I always have a way to save myself."

This is a kind-hearted little girl, and she doesn't want to burden the other party.

Thank you for your monthly tickets, good night.
