Chapter 109 Prayer
Chapter 109 Prayer
"Feixing, Xie Feixing, why are you here? You haven't fully recovered from your illness yet. You can't stay outside in the wind for too long."
The little girl's words were interrupted by the boy's mother, who pursed her pink lips.
The boy's mother glanced at the red cloth on the table and chuckled, "Do you know what this is?"
The boy scratched his head. "It's for blessing."
The boy's mother put a cloak on him and said, "I guess so!"
"But you can't use it yet."
"Okay, we should go now. Say goodbye to little sister!"
"See you again if we're lucky, sister!" The boy waved obediently.
"Goodbye!" The girl looked a little lost.
She has no brothers or sisters, and she is her parents' only daughter. Her parents treat her very well...
After the boy left, the little girl put away the red cloth with the boy's name on it...
"Thank you Feixing, the stars flying in the sky are so shining and dazzling. I don't know if I can see them again in the future, Brother Feixing..."
At that time, she didn't know what love was, but with such an outstanding person living in her heart, no one else had the chance to live in it.
It wasn't until their first meeting at Li Jing's house that her forgotten memories were brought back. The name Xie Feixing had been in her mind for nine years. Nine whole years. She never expected that when they met again, he had lost his childishness and became more unrestrained and flamboyant. He looked like a handsome gentleman. One glance at him made her heart flutter, and she thought of him...
……
"I'm going to Lin'an." Gu Niannian said this unexpectedly.
Li Jing, who was standing by, was stunned for a moment before he slowly spoke, "I'll go with you."
"Okay, pack up and go."
Gu Niannian took out the bag. Actually, there was nothing in it, just a few pieces of clothes.
"I'll ask the store to prepare two days' worth of food for us on the road."
Li Jing glanced at the room next to him and asked, "Should we tell them...?"
"Let me know when we eat later." Gu Niannian quickly packed the clothes into the bag and tied a knot.
There was a knock on the door, "Sir, the food is ready."
"and many more."
"Please prepare ten Hu pancakes and five pounds of dried meat for us, the sooner the better."
"Fry some fresh chili sauce and put it in a clay pot."
The waiter should be.
Eat, Xie Feixing's room
"What? You're going to Lin'an?"
Li Jing glanced at him and closed his open mouth. "It's not her, it's me and her."
Sun Yun, "Is there something wrong?"
Gu Niannian nodded and said, "When we are not around, please do not act on your own. Just eat and drink as if we are here for fun."
Xie Feixing snorted, "We came here to have fun."
Sun Yun, "When are you leaving? When are you coming back?"
"Let's go after dinner. As for when we'll be back, we'll see then."
"So urgent."
"Delay will lead to changes." Gu Niannian looked solemn.
Needless to say, this matter is related to Lanyue Tower and Mr. Gu Sanye.
"We'll wait for you here."
……
on carriage
Gu Niannian's face turned pale from being thrown around, and her head felt like it was about to fly off. "How much further is there?"
Li Jing glanced sideways into the carriage and said, "Half a day."
The journey that was supposed to take two days was shortened to one and a half days. Apart from eating and taking rest time, I only slept for three hours.
When they arrived at Gu's house, it was already evening. Gu Niannian walked straight to Gu Rujun's yard.
But her brother was still in the yamen, and before Gu Niannian had time to go see Bai, she pulled Li Jing straight to the yamen.
The yamen runner on duty saw Gu Niannian in men's clothes and thought he had seen it wrong. He rubbed his eyes. He had just seen the adult sitting inside reading the case file, so how could he be outside the door in the blink of an eye?
Gu Niannian didn't want to waste time talking to him, "Open the door."
The bailiff thought he was the county magistrate and quickly opened the door.
It doesn't matter if it's open, but how come there's one person sitting inside and one standing outside? Is this a ghost? The yamen runner rubbed his eyes again.
Gu Niannian clasped her fists towards the yamen runner and said, "Thank you!" Seeing his expression of having seen a ghost, she explained, "I am Master Gu's sister, a twin."
Gu Rujun looked up when she heard the voice, her expression changed slightly, and then she slowly said, "Niannian, why are you here?"
"You go down first!" Gu Rujun glanced at the man next to Gu Niannian and ordered the yamen runner at the door.
Zhou Mi clasped his fists in response.
Li Jing was also shocked when he saw the real Gu Rujun in front of him. Apart from being taller and stronger than Nian Nian, what else was different about this man?
To be honest, Gu Niannian is not particularly familiar with Gu Rujun in front of her.
I froze there for a moment, not knowing how to start.
Gu Rujun continued to write with his head down, "Sit down!"
Their butts just touched the edge of the chair.
"You're the one who kidnapped my sister?"
The voice was not loud, but it was filled with anger and dissatisfaction.
"Bang", someone's butt made close contact with the ground.
Gu Rujun looked up, the corners of her mouth curved up slightly, "What's the matter? Is the stool covered in thorns? It's still more comfortable to sit on the ground."
Someone stood up from the ground, his face slightly flushed, and respectfully clasped his fists and said, "Master Gu, Li is sincere to Nian Nian, without any false pretenses. I..."
"Brother, I came here this time to tell you something important. Can you come find him after you finish this matter?" Gu Niannian interrupted Li Jing before he finished speaking.
Gu Rujun stopped writing, walked up to Gu Niannian, and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear, "Just protect him!"
Then he sighed heavily, "Alas! Girls can't be kept at home when they grow up!"
Li Jing lowered his head even lower.
"Tell me! What's the matter!"
"I want to see Xiaoyuer." Gu Niannian got straight to the point.
"What do you want to see her for?" Gu Rujun's face changed slightly.
Gu Niannian told Gu Rujun everything she saw and heard in the capital.
"You suspect that Lanyue Tower is involved in human trafficking and want to use the influence of Mr. Gu San to find out the truth?" Gu Rujun's brows were furrowed so tightly that they could kill a fly.
"Do you know whose territory that is? Just check it out!" Gu Ru slammed the table.
"That's the current crown prince's territory. Do you think you have the ability to overthrow him?"
"Or do you think Mr. Gu San has this ability?"
Gu Rujun's words were like heavy punches hitting Gu Niannian's chest, too sudden and too heavy.
She had to digest it.
"You let her do what she wants? She is ignorant, and you are ignorant too?" Gu Rujun's blaming eyes shot towards Li Jing like sharp swords.
Li Jing hadn't expected the water behind him to be so deep. He was speechless for a moment, feeling a wave of fear. If she really went, he might not be able to protect her. He lowered his head even lower.
After a while, Gu Niannian recovered. "What's wrong with the Crown Prince? There's the Emperor above him. Does that mean he can do whatever he wants? Will those innocent victims never see the light of day? Is that fair?"
"Ignorant and stupid woman!" Gu Rujun cursed and waved her hand.
"Go back and stop saying such outrageous things."
Gu Rujun looked at Li Jing and said, "Take her back to the Gu family."
