A Time-Traveling Mishap: I Became an Ancient Nobleman

Chapter 43 Possessed by a Ghost?

Zhou Hanzhang quickly opened the courtyard gate, thought for a moment, and then reached out his hands, intending to help her up.

After all, she looked like she was about to die at any moment.

"Are you here to see your brother? Come in and have a seat. He's still asleep. I'll go wake him up."

Jiang Mingyun's gaze pierced through her tear-streaked face as she saw Zhou Hanzhang approaching. Before Zhou Hanzhang could even reach out, she threw herself at her.

Zhou Hanzhang was completely stunned. What was going on?

Just as she was wondering what was going on, Jiang Mingyun cried even harder.

She seemed a little dazed, crying and then laughing again, "That's great."

Zhou Hanzhang wondered if he was dreaming. What was wrong with this person? Was he possessed by a ghost?

"You..." She didn't know what to say.

Jiang Mingyun didn't care and happily hugged her, "Brother Hanzhang, I'm so glad to see you again."

"No...didn't we just meet not long ago?"

What do you mean by "finally seeing her"? It's like you haven't seen her for decades.

And their relationship doesn't seem that good, does it?

Jiang Mingyun still held onto Zhou Hanzhang tightly, unwilling to let go.

The commotion they made quickly woke up everyone in the dormitory. Except for Gu Qingfeng, everyone else stood at the door watching the two of them hugging.

"Cough." A cough came from behind.

Zhou Hanzhang suddenly remembered that he was now a man, and it was really inappropriate for him to be hugging Jiang Mingyun like this.

Even though she was being forcibly held by Jiang Mingyun.

Jiang Mingyun also heard the cough. She looked towards the door and saw her brother staring at her with a dark expression.

Startled, he immediately released his grip on Zhou Hanzhang, took two steps back, and bowed to the group.

"Brother, good morning to my two senior brothers."

Zhou Hanzhang turned around and saw Jiang Yichen, whose complexion was not good, as well as Chen Moran, who had no expression, and Shen Moli, who had a smile on his face.

However, Zhou Hanzhang felt that he could inexplicably detect a hint of mockery in their expressions.

"Don't misunderstand, it's not what you think. I just came out myself."

Zhou Hanzhang quickly explained, fearing that if he hesitated any longer, he would be accused of some crime.

Jiang Yichen ignored him and focused only on her sisters, asking, "What are you doing here?"

Jiang Mingyun then realized that this place was inhabited by men, and it would take her about the time it takes to drink a cup of tea to walk here from the girls' dormitory.

Last night's dream was so terrifying that she rushed to this schoolhouse as soon as she woke up.

Even so, she was still relieved to see her brother's dark face. Ignoring his anger, she ran straight to him and hugged him without a care in the world.

"Brother, you're still here too, that's wonderful, that's wonderful."

What do you mean you're still here too? Zhou Hanzhang was puzzled by Jiang Mingyun's words.

Chen Moran frowned slightly when he saw Jiang Mingyun approaching. "Where did you go? Why do you look so hostile?"

"Aggression?" Jiang Yichen looked at Chen Moran, knowing full well that Chen Moran's words had deeper meaning.

"When I first met her, she exuded both hostility and death, but now she seems much less so."

Chen Moran didn't know what had happened to her, but the murderous and deathly aura emanating from her was undeniable.

He stepped forward and grabbed one of Jiang Mingyun's hands. "Where exactly did you go?"

"I...I..." Jiang Mingyun then remembered that Chen Moran was indeed quite skilled at observing the heavens and predicting people.

He's still at Tianan Academy now, unlike in his previous life...

Jiang Yichen also felt that Jiang Mingyun, who was holding him, was ice cold all over and didn't seem like a living person.

Shen Moli, who was watching from the side, said, “I see that Miss Jiang’s face is pale, as if she has caught a cold, and she looks panicked. Although I don’t know what happened, she looks quite frightened. You can help her sit down first, and I will go and make some calming tea for her.”

"Thank you." Although Jiang Yichen's expression was still not good, he politely thanked Shen Moli.

He's not an ungrateful person.

Although my sister's behavior today was inappropriate, it does seem like something happened to her, so I should ask her about it first.

Zhou Hanzhang watched as Jiang Mingyun was welcomed into the house. She checked the time; it was almost dawn, and she still needed to hurry to the training ground.

Just as she was about to leave, Jiang Mingyun saw her and asked, "Brother Hanzhang, can you stay?"

Hearing her pleading tone, Zhou Hanzhang sighed inwardly. Even though she was a woman, he couldn't bear to see a beautiful woman pleading like that.

But over at the training ground...

At this moment, Jiang Mingyun's maid rushed over, "Miss, I've finally found you! You scared me to death!"

Jiang Mingyun looked at Bitao, who was rushing over with a face full of anxiety. She seemed a little scared and moved slightly closer to Zhou Hanzhang, carefully tugging at Zhou Hanzhang's sleeve.

Jiang Yichen watched as the girl who had let go of him turned and pulled Zhou Hanzhang closer, his brows furrowed so deeply they could almost trap a fly.

However, his sister seemed to be quite frightened.

He took a deep breath and held back.

But the maid said, "What's wrong with you? Don't you know how to keep an eye on Miss? You let her run out on her own so early in the morning. If something happens to her, how are you going to take responsibility?!"

Hearing Jiang Yichen's unfriendly tone, Bitao also felt a little scared, "Miss is acting strangely today. As soon as she woke up, she cried and rushed outside. I tried to stop her but couldn't..."

Zhou Hanzhang looked at Jiang Mingyun, who was still holding onto him, and then looked at Jiang Yichen for help, giving him a pleading look.

Look at your daughter like this, I still have to go to the training ground.

Jiang Yichen had no choice but to step forward and try to pull Jiang Mingyun's hand away, but Jiang Mingyun held on tightly and shook her head desperately, refusing to let go.

"Mingyun, Junior Brother Zhou still needs to go to the training ground, can you let go first?" Jiang Yichen controlled his tone and said to Jiang Mingyun.

But Jiang Mingyun wouldn't let go and kept holding on.

Jiang Yichen reached out and rubbed his temples, then looked at Bitao and said, "Go to the training ground and classroom and ask for leave for Young Master Zhou."

Seeing her mistress in this state, Bitao could only agree and turn to leave.

Seeing this, Zhou Hanzhang had no choice but to comfort Jiang Mingyun and have her sit down.

"Don't be afraid, we're all here for you."

Jiang Mingyun's hands were still very cold. In the middle of summer, she felt as if she were in the dead of winter, and even her breath was icy cold.

"Go find her a coat to put on, she's still shivering," Zhou Hanzhang said to Jiang Yichen.

Jiang Yichen immediately turned around and went back into the room, took out a coat and draped it over her shoulders.

Zhou Hanzhang originally wanted to find some hot water and make a cup of hot tea for Jiang Mingyun to calm down, but Jiang Mingyun kept holding him and wouldn't let him leave.

She could only look at Jiang Yichen again.

Jiang Yichen turned around again, holding a bowl of calming tea in his hand. "Mo Li's calming tea is ready. Have a bowl first."
