Wishful Things

"The Tianmu is more diligent now." Xu Mingyi patted the big bird's feathers and praised him.

In her memory, this ugly bird has always been a lazy eater, but now it doesn't stop in the middle of the night, presumably because it is young.

Hearing her praise, Big Bird puffed up his chest.

Seeing that Xu Mingyi believed it, Wu Chao heaved a sigh of relief.

He is not a person who likes to lie, but it is really difficult to explain the fact that he appeared at the back door of the Duke of Zhen's mansion. It would be bad if Miss Xu misunderstood that he wanted to climb over the wall of the Duke of Zhen's mansion.

As a child of an aristocratic family, it is absolutely impossible to do such a thing as overcoming the wall.

In fact, he was inexplicably sleepless tonight, so he thought of many irrelevant things.

For example, how did Miss Xu deal with the person she caught during the day? If she got any clues from that person, she must do something according to her turbulent personality.

After leaving Qingyu Temple today, in fact, he thought about it. He also thought about letting Xiao Wu continue to follow her, but after thinking about it, it was really unreasonable to interfere in her private affairs like this—too disturbing, then became an offense.

Although everyone can be regarded as friends now and have helped each other a little, it is not easy to go beyond the bottom line.

And he did not guess wrong——

Miss Xu had her hair tied up and was dressed in black, and there was a dagger on the stone beside her.

Seeing that the girl's hands were running down the bird's feathers, but the expression on her face was not relaxed, Wu Chao hesitated for a moment, before finally asking: "But things are not going well?"

"I found my cousin Qing. Fortunately, nothing major happened."

Xu Mingyi said frankly to him: "I have rescued her and sent her back to the uncle's residence."

Wu Chao was puzzled.

This is a good thing.

But with her appearance, she clearly encountered a problem.

"Have you found out who did it?" The young man asked with a feeling.

Xu Mingyi looked towards the river and said, "A lunatic who is not as good as a beast—"

Wu Chao was taken aback.

He had never heard a girl scold anyone in front of him.

But the strange thing is that he didn't think there was anything wrong with it.

Even... is it weird?

"It's just that he has an unusual status, so it's impossible to convict him easily. There are many involved in this matter, and I can't make a decision whether to intervene or not." Xu Mingyi did not hide his hesitation, or felt very depressed in his heart. The young man beside him actually poured out all the words in his heart.

She promised to help Xu Ying report the matter to the government, but what about after that?

If she just sits idly by, I'm afraid Xu Ying will die before she can speak.

Not to mention what kind of obstacles you will encounter later.

In this capital city, it seems to be prosperous and peaceful, but dark and bloody things that can't be seen are happening almost every day.

Every year, I don't know how many people die quietly. Some sufferers dare not pursue it, and some are doomed to have no results even if they insist on pursuing it.

Even if Xia Han's actions are not known to the Xia family at the moment, once the quarrel breaks out, the Xia family will definitely do everything possible to clear Xia Han of the crime in order to preserve their reputation.

People are alive, and there are choices everywhere. She wants to save Xu Ying, but she asks herself, in just a few months after her rebirth, she has not even really grasped the key to the situation, and many hidden crises have not yet become clear-at this moment, it is true He was not yet ready for a direct confrontation with the Xia family.

If she was alone, she would naturally have no fear and just do as she pleases, but behind her is the entire town government.

The most important thing for her to live this life again is to protect the Duke of Zhen's mansion.

Therefore, when it comes to matters related to the overall situation, one is used to careful weighing and consideration, and dare not be careless in one step.

She also told Wu Chao about the secret room.

Wu Chao frowned upon hearing this.

Suddenly, I felt that Miss Xu's previous scolding was too light.

He didn't comment much, but said bluntly: "If Miss Xu is inconvenient to come forward, I will leave this matter to Wu to solve it."

A good girl's family can't make her frown on this matter all the time.

Xu Mingyi turned to look at him.

The young Yinglang didn't have much expression on his face, only his pretty thin lips were straightened into a line, which showed that he was in a very bad mood.

"But Mr. Wu doesn't know who that person is—" She faintly felt that the person in front of her seemed a little different from the Wu Shisun she remembered.

"The Xia family?" Wu Chao asked.

He also had a general understanding of Miss Xu's temperament, and he knew how to weigh the pros and cons when something happened, but he didn't see all the pros and cons in his eyes—as long as the person was more ordinary, she wouldn't hesitate at all.

And looking at Beijing, apart from the clan's children, the only ones who can make this girl from Zhen Guogong's mansion think about it are only the Xia family.

Among the clan's children, there are no men of this age who live in the middle of the capital.

Hearing that his guess was so accurate, Xu Mingyi was a little surprised.

She nodded and said, "It's the second son of the Xia family, Xia Han."

"It seems to have some impression." Wu Chao's complexion did not change much.

Although the Xia family is quite powerful, but for him, there is not much to be jealous of.

What's more, this matter is not slander, but the Xia family did evil first.

Seeing his calmness, Xu Mingyi rarely sighed enviously from the bottom of his heart.

This is the confidence that only the Wu family can have.

But even if Wu Chao didn't regard this as a difficult matter, she wouldn't take it for granted to involve him who had nothing to do with it——

"It's not that I have no choice at all, I'm just thinking about the importance. What to do in the end, I will discuss it with my grandfather when I go back."

Grandfather trusts her in everything and indulges her, and this matter is related to the situation between the Zhen Guo government and the Xia family, and she has absolutely no reason to make decisions without telling her grandfather.

She looked at Wu Chao, and her tone was much more relaxed than the tense one before, "The reason why I said this to Mr. Wu is because I was too emotional. After I said it, I am much better now. Thank you Mr. Wu for listening." I say this."

Wu Chao nodded slightly.

It's better if it's better.

He had heard from his second uncle in the past that many soldiers who returned from the battlefield had experienced too many tragic scenes, which would leave an indelible shadow in their hearts.

What Miss Xu saw tonight, although it wasn't about the battlefield, but for a girl's family, it must have had a huge impact, and it is normal to feel uncomfortable.

He was suddenly a little thankful that he had no sleep tonight, and that he met Miss Xu who needed to express his emotions here.

But he can only listen to it. If she wants, he can still help, but he is really not good at comforting people.

Thinking of this, the boy suddenly turned sideways, and swiftly tore off his collar.

Xu Mingyi was stunned.

Although the other party was facing her sideways, avoiding her sight, so that she wouldn't see anything she shouldn't see, but this man...why suddenly pull his clothes?

The third eye is also watching this scene tensely.

——Could it be that the master doesn't want to be a human, but a beast? !

Good night everyone~
