Chapter 154 – Little Elder Sister Sealed In The Depth Of Memory
The Heir-apparent of Yan, who was like a celestial immortal, was gently wiping the sweat off her Miss with a scarf…
Wei Yuewu had been dreaming. In her dreams, there would always be a weak and sick girl. She looked about seven or eight years old. She held her hand and gently told her, “Younger sister, don’t be afraid. Don’t worry, elder sister will protect you.”
The girl had a pair of gentle eyes. Although her face was pale without a trace of blood, she smiled all the time. However, Wei Yuewu was frightened to discover that the corner of her lips began to bleed. Blood dripped down from the edge of her lips. However, it seemed that she was unaware and she kept smiling.
Wei Yuewu, on the other hand, panicked and cried loudly. Then, she broke free from her hand and rushed to the front of the tightly closed palace door and patted hard on the door with her hands.
She didn’t know what she was crying about, but she could feel the fear, panic, and horror at that time. Even though she was only a child at that time, such fear and panic were enough to destroy her mind. After an unknown period of time, she seemed to see the door open and a large group of people rushed in.
Someone pounced towards her, but more people rushed past her. Someone cried out in alarm and kept shouting something. She turned around in panic and saw the weak girl lying quietly in a person’s embrace. Her eyes were tightly closed, her face pale, and she remained motionless…
“Ah!” Wei Yuewu suddenly opened her eyes and shouted out the fear in her heart!
She suddenly opened her eyes and stared blankly at the wooden roof above her head. For a moment, she didn’t know where she was…
“What’s wrong? Are you feeling better?” A clear and jade-like voice carried a faint sense of calm and gentleness that diluted her extreme panic.
Wei Yuewu still felt dizzy. She thought for a moment before suddenly realizing that this familiar voice was actually Yan Huaijing’s!
It was actually Yan Huaijing!
Wei Yuewu never expected that she would feel like being brought back to life because she heard Yan Huaijing’s words.
“Are you still dizzy?” Yan Huaijing’s voice was light and elegant, very comforting, especially at this time. Wei Yuewu’s eyes inexplicably became red with tears.
After extreme fear, there was extreme peace. This feeling was too extreme for her to restrain her emotions for a moment.
After a long while, she finally recovered her voice, propped herself up, and slowly sat up. “I… Where am I?”
In front of her eyes was a very simple room. There were only a table, a chair, and a couch by the window on which she was lying. This should be a place to rest. It didn’t seem that someone was really living here; it was more like a place to rest.
“Did you have a nightmare?” Yan Huaijing put down the scroll in his hand, stood up and walked to the couch. He naturally reached out and touched her forehead. A trace of coldness flashed through his slender phoenix eyes.
“I… don’t know.” Wei Yuewu shook her head and muttered.
She didn’t know if it was a dream or not. The panic at that moment was so real that she believed she had really experienced the scene that occurred in her dream. But now, she didn’t remember anything. Was this something hidden deep in her memories?
“It’s okay! Don’t be afraid!” Sensing the faint coldness on Wei Yuewu’s forehead, Yan Huaijing reached out to fetch a cup of warm water from the table and handed it to her.
Wei Yuewu stretched out her hand and took it. She took a big sip and put it down before her mind regained its clarity. She looked at the dwelling in front of her in astonishment, “Your Heir-apparent, where is this? What time is it now? Where is Huamo?”
Yan Huaijing slowly took over Wei Yuewu’s teacup and placed it aside. The corner of his lips curved as he looked at her watery and beautiful eyes. With a lazy smile, he said, “You do have a lot of questions. Don’t worry, your maid is safe and sound. However, you have had quite a long rest at my place. I believe many people have known about it by now!”
“Then what should we do?” Wei Yuewu was shocked, her eyes widened as she asked anxiously.
Yan Huaijing was a troublemaker for her. Although she secretly had a deal with him, under normal circumstances, she would always avoid being associated with him. However, it was obvious that she could not do so now.
Didn’t Yan Huaijing’s words imply that someone would come over soon?
“It doesn’t matter. You and I both happen to be single, so you can marry me!” Yan Huaijing’s smile was like a spring breeze as he glanced sideways at Wei Yuewu and said with a faint smile.
Wei Yuewu’s expression stiffened and she couldn’t help but feel choked by anger. “Your Highness, I’m telling the truth. I have to investigate the matter between Mo Huating and my second uncle for you after I return!”
“So you won’t consider my suggestion?” Yan Huaijing said with a faint smile. His slender fingers lightly tapped on the table. His handsome face shone with a hint of wickedness as it was illuminated by the setting sun through the window. At this moment, not only was he like a banished immortal from the sky, he even looked as charming and sinister as the legendary Asura.
That kind of magic really made her face burn and her heart throb. Even with her ability to remain composed, Wei Yuewu still felt her heart skipped a beat. She quickly took a deep breath and lowered her eyes.
After calming down, Wei Yuewu raised her head and revealed a gentle smile. “Your Heir-apparent is joking. After I return this time, the mansion should be in a mess. I may be able to find the thing that is needed by Your Heir-apparent.”
The corners of Yan Huaijing’s lips curved slightly, and his ink eyes shone brightly. He looked at Wei Yuewu with rapt attention. Suddenly, he laughed loudly, “Yuewu, are you really not going to give it a try?”
“Yuewu doesn’t dare!” Wei Yuewu said neither humbly nor arrogantly.
“Alright, then settle the subsequent matter by yourself. I believe that since you are willing to be my secret agent, you will naturally be able to handle this kind of matter!” Yan Huaijing suddenly stood up and chuckled. His voice was like the plucking of a qin string, but Wei Yuewu could sense the danger in it.
Seeing his tall and straight figure disappearing behind the door, she felt a sense of danger. She couldn’t help but frown slightly. What did Yan Huaijing mean? Why did his words inexplicably make her feel scared?
Moreover, what was going on with this moody heir-apparent? A moment ago, he was like a gentle breeze and drizzle. But why did he suddenly change his style, causing her unable to react for a moment?
Did she offend him? Why did he look so unhappy?
Wei Yuewu couldn’t help but was deeply lost in her analysis of the situation…
“Miss, you’re finally awake!” The next moment, a figure appeared at the door and Huamo pounced in excitedly. Seeing Wei Yuewu sitting up, she put down the things in her hands and cried out in joy.
“Huamo, where were you just now?” Wei Yuewu raised her watery eyes and asked.
“I have been waiting outside the door. The heir-apparent’s guard didn’t let me in. I am able to come in to see you only after I saw the heir-apparent left with his guard.” Huamo explained with tears in her eyes.
She had tried her best to come in, but under the cold gaze of the guard, she could not take a step forward. Now that she saw Wei Yuewu woke up and looked normal, how could she not be excited?
“Why am I here?” Wei Yuewu’s heart skipped a beat as she asked anxiously.
“Miss, when you fainted, the heir-apparent happened to pass by and he brought you here. He even fetched Imperial Doctor Chen here to treat you. After checking your condition, Imperial Doctor Chen even decocted some medicine and sent it over. I have asked Imperial Doctor Chen. He said that there was nothing serious. You were just shocked for a moment. Besides, you had a weak body. Therefore, you suffered a sudden heart palpitation.”
Seeing that Wei Yuewu was fine, Huamo felt relieved and wiped away her tears as she said briskly.
Looking at the sky outside the window, Wei Yuewu realized the sun had started to set. With a quick calculation, she knew that she had stayed at Yan Huaijing’s place for at least an entire afternoon. She reached out her hand to support herself by Huamo’s shoulder and went out of bed and asked anxiously, “You have stayed outside the room all the time?”
“Yes, the guard wouldn’t let me in.” Huamo said with a pitiful voice. At first, when she came over, there was no guard. Just as she was about to enter, she saw the Heir-apparent of Yan wiping sweat for Wei Yuewu. She couldn’t help but pause. Then, a guard came out of nowhere and stopped her bluntly and took away the things in her hands. However, he didn’t let her in.
Huamo tried several times to rush in, but every time, the guard lifted her up and put her to the side. He didn’t let her take a single step towards the door. Huamo stamped her feet anxiously, but there was nothing she could do about it.
Now that Huamo could enter the room, did it mean that Yan Huaijing had left and that his guard was also gone? Wei Yuewu asked herself this question twice, and she immediately had a clear answer!
“Let’s go!” At this moment, Wei Yuewu finally knew what Yan Huaijing meant by those words when he left! She gritted her teeth in anger.
On the surface, this person seemed gentle and warm, but in fact, he was really black-hearted. He actually left such a big trouble for her to handle. Considering Yan Huaijing’s situation, there was no doubt that the Crown Prince and the other three heirs-apparent were all keeping an eye on him. How could those people be ignorant of the fact that she had stayed at Yan Huaijing’s place for so long?
Moreover, Huamo had been kept outside the room. That meant the two of them spent an entire afternoon together. If this were to spread out, her reputation would be ruined!
Yan Huaijing actually left without saying a word, leaving her to deal with subsequent trouble alone. How could Wei Yuewu not hate him? Could this kind of thing be explained with any excuse? Was there anyone in this world more sinister than Yan Huaijing?
Sure enough, his face was a lie! He looked like a gentle and elegant celestial immortal and was hailed as a peerlessly handsome young master. But all of these were just an illusion. He was the cunning and sinister Yan Huaijing.
“Let’s go back!” Since this was Yan Huaijing’s place, of course she couldn’t stay here for long. After Wei Yuewu stood still, she calmed down and gestured to walk out.
“Miss, you are weak and has only just gotten out of bed. You can’t be directly blown by the wind. Put on this cloak.” As Huamo spoke, she took a snow-colored mink cloak and put it on Wei Yuewu.
“Heir-apparent of Yan’s cloak?” Wei Yuewu felt that the cloak looked familiar and couldn’t help but ask.
“Yes, it was left behind by the heir-apparent to you.” Huamo replied as she helped Wei Yuewu tie the lace.
Wei Yuewu bit her lips and looked at the ferret cloak on her body helplessly. She would be in a difficult situation whether she wore it or not. Many people had seen Yan Huaijing’s ferret cloak. If she wore this ferret cloak, she would cause trouble for herself. Therefore, it was really inappropriate for her to wear this cloak openly. But if she didn’t wear it, Wei Yuewu knew that her body wouldn’t be able to withstand the cold wind outside.
“Sixth Miss Wei, why are you here?” Suddenly, a woman’s displeased voice came from the door.
Wei Yuewu secretly stroked her own forehead. Sure enough, trouble came really quickly!
