For a useless piece of trash, asking about her cultivation progress was a provocative thing to do. Lan'er had always kept her mouth shut. She didn't even dare ask about douqi.
"Someone's here." Schilling's Shadow gestured towards the entrance of Breezy Courtyard. Lan'er's face paled when she saw who it was. "Master, why did he bring so many people here? Is he here to denounce us? Miss, hurry up and hide. Lan'er will take all the blame. "
Lan'er tried to push Schilling's Shadow into the room as she spoke. However, Schilling's Shadow was too big to be hidden. He wasn't as small as Weng Weng, so there was no way he could hide.
"Nuo Ying." Master Xi spotted Schilling's Shadow from afar.
Lan'er sucked in a deep breath. She closed her eyes and muttered under her breath, "It's over, it's over …"
Schilling's Shadow cautiously looked at Master Xi. His clothes were a bit disheveled, but there was no anger on his face. Instead, he looked anxious and worried. However, his expression softened when he saw her.
He didn't look like he was here to denounce her. Instead, he looked like he was here to show concern.
Xi Nuoying then looked at the few guards who had come with the Xi Family. Most of these people were originally the guards that the Clan Head had arranged to be stationed near the Cool Breeze Courtyard. Could it be that these guards had run over and reported something?
"Nuo Ying, did someone barge into your room last night?"
The moment Patriarch Xi entered Cool Breeze Courtyard, the first thing he asked was what happened last night.
Schilling's Shadow froze. The person who barged into her room last night was Di Shifan. However, that didn't count as barging in. He appeared very natural and at ease, as if he was in his own home.
Of course, she wasn't going to tell Master Xi the truth. "Grandfather, why do you ask?"
The Xi Clan Patriarch was startled, then he blamed himself for being so careless.
Last night, that person was able to take down the guards he had stationed near Cool Breeze Courtyard without making a sound. How could he have alerted Schilling's Shadow?
That person, or rather that group of people, was definitely not an ordinary person.
He looked around cautiously, trying to find some clues.
"Grandfather, what happened last night?" Schilling's Shadow couldn't help but ask in confusion when he saw that Zu An was staring around the Breezy Courtyard without a word.
Only then did Patriarch Xi retract his gaze. When he saw Xi Nuo's ignorant expression, he couldn't help but sigh heavily.
"It seems that you don't know anything about what happened last night. The Cool Breeze Courtyard was attacked last night. Perhaps it was a group of people, or perhaps it was just one person. Without alerting the other guards, they were able to take down the guards I arranged."
Ambush? "I'm fine. Why would I be ambushed?" Schilling's Shadow immediately thought of Di Shifan. Could it be him?
One person against several people? Or did he team up with Lin Feng to take down the guards?
But was there a need to do it in the middle of the night just to send Wengweng over for her entertainment? And why would he go through so much trouble to take down those guards?
Putting down those guards, wasn't it obvious that he wanted to alert the family head? Xi Nuoying thought about it and didn't think that Dishi Fan needed to do this.
If it wasn't him, then it had to be someone else.
Schilling's Shadow had always been a meticulous person. However, she didn't pay much attention last night. Now that Master Xi mentioned it, she suddenly remembered that when Di Shifan appeared in her room last night, the door was wide open.
