Tan Siwei continued, "At that time, I deliberately tested her and targeted our Tan family. However, our Tan family unintentionally offended a certain concubine, so we asked Mama for guidance. At that time, her reaction was very strange, as if she had been greatly humiliated. She sarcastically replied to me, 'You think I'm a palace maid? Let me tell you, I should be the most honorable woman in the world! '
The most honorable woman in the world … Ning Shu frowned and fell into deep thought.
After Tan Siwei finished speaking, he felt much better. He stood in the same wind as Ning Shu for a long time. He hesitantly asked, "In a few days, it will be the seventh day of Big Brother and Bong Wei's death. If you have time, can you accompany me to send them off?"
Ning Shu pulled herself out of deep thought and nodded without thinking, "Of course, I will definitely be there on that day."
Tan Siwei calmed down and secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He smiled and said, "That's great, Ning Shu. Thank you."
Ning Shu smiled calmly and said, "Shaoqing, why are you being so polite with me? I've said before that I have long regarded you as a close friend in my heart. If you're so polite, you'll make us estranged. "
"A close friend …" Tan Siwei's eyes flashed and he smiled faintly, "You're right. Between friends, always saying thanks makes us estranged. In that case, I won't be like this in the future."
"I'm fine now. It's not good for a girl like you to stay in a brothel for too long. Moreover, it's already late. It's better to go back early."
"What about you?"
"I've been too dispirited these past two days. I've done many ridiculous things. I need to reflect on my mistakes and slowly go back. Don't worry, I'm a man. Nothing will happen to me. "
Ning Shu nodded, "Alright then. I'll go back to the residence with the servant girl first. If Shaoqing encounters any trouble, feel free to look for me. I'll do my best."
"No problem. I'll definitely be thick-skinned and disturb you often." Tan Siwei waved at her with a smile and watched her leave. In his eyes, which were bigger because of his thinness, her reflection was as clear as the lake water in late autumn. Step by step, she slowly blended into the colorful lights of Xi City and gradually disappeared at the end of the road.
His self-deprecating chuckle was also swept away by the wind and drifted into the deepest clouds of the night. "Ning Shu, you're good in every way, but unfortunately, you don't like me …"
In the West Town, a famous brothel had fallen, and soon other brothels had used all kinds of means to take its place. Miss Ying Xue, who had nothing to do with this case, stood in the center of Xi City and stared blankly for a long time. In the end, she numbly and sadly sent herself to another brothel. She held her pipa and sang in a private room for guests, "Who would throw away time so easily? What's the matter in my heart? The cup is always empty, and the reed flowers fly everywhere. Why do you miss him? He did not receive a letter from Yuhong. The night is boundless, it should be like a dream of the living soul … "
The night wind blew, and the lights were flickering. Her heart was also in a daze. Walking out of Xi City, Ning Shu boarded the carriage and was ready to leave. She did not expect to see a familiar figure standing under a crepe myrtle flower tree. The tipsy night wind brushed the branches of the flowers, silently teasing his shoulders and scattering petals on the ground.
Ning Shu saw him and her eyes lit up. She lifted her skirt and ran over, "Why are you here?"
Xiahou Qing raised his head and looked in her direction. His thin lips opened slightly, "I heard that the little bodyguard in my mansion made a name for himself in Xi City tonight. How can I not come to pay my respects and broaden my knowledge?"
He was so observant and alert that nothing could be hidden from him. Ning Shu was slightly surprised, "How do you know everything?"
She did not know why, but Xiahou Qing did not seem to be in a good mood tonight, "Why, you don't want me to know?"
Ning Shu explained, "No, what I mean is that you have not recovered from your serious injuries. This kind of trivial matter is not worthy of your attention. You should be recuperating in your mansion. The wind is so strong at night, what are you doing out here?"
But Xiahou Qing frowned slightly and corrected her, "None of the matters related to you are insignificant."
