Chapter 17 The Trap

I returned safely from Hongdianhuashu with my third brother, but I felt exhausted both physically and mentally. I lay on the bed and recalled everything that happened in the afternoon, feeling extremely embarrassed.

I don't know who said: "Wen, is this the fourth lady of the Xie family who is said to have shut you out and impressed you?"

At that moment, I only felt that the roots of my ears were red and my face was red, but I had to suppress all these abnormalities and my face remained as usual.

Huan Wen's expression remained unchanged and he replied coolly: "Xunnan, your girl is still waiting for you to please. It's not your turn to interfere with my affairs."

When I heard this, I was stunned! He was talking about the beautiful sister! Could it be that this person named Xunnan was also one of the admirers of the beautiful sister? Haha, that would be really hard for him. After two years of getting along, I am quite knowledgeable.

He could not get her cold smile.

For a person with such a hard heart, falling in love is like endless addiction... there is no way back...

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but look at him with some pity...

Seeing that he was being ridiculed even though he failed to find fault, Su Xunnan became angry and snorted, then pointed the finger at me again and said coldly: "Since you are so confident, let's play a charade and test your four words.

"Looked at me with disdain, and then said:

Little by little, little by little,

Point by point, point by point,

Leave a little bit little by little,

A little bit less.

The third brother saw that my face was gloomy and he hurriedly stopped me: "Xunnan, stop making trouble."

I frowned and looked at this handsome young man. I didn't expect that he was so narrow-minded, and there was a dark haze between his eyebrows, which was very comfortable. Looking at Huan Wen again, his face, which had always been cynical, changed again.

Change. It’s true that I don’t offend others, but people often come to offend me.

I walked to the desk nearby, picked up the brush as if nothing had happened, and dipped it in the ink. It seemed that I was calm and leisurely, but when I started writing, I felt uneasy. I didn't hold the brush for a long time, and I didn't know if I would be able to write.

Okay. I stopped writing. Although my writing was crooked, I could still understand what I wrote. I smiled innocently at them and said, "I also want to ask Brother Nan four questions." After that, he chanted:

One horizontal line and another horizontal line,

One upright and another upright,

One stroke after another,

One stroke after another.

He glanced at everyone with a gentle smile, and he could only leave this place of right and wrong. If he had known that Third Brother had brought me here, I would have said nothing.

Seeing that he had furrowed his brows for a long time, but couldn't answer. I smiled, leaned over and said, "Sorry to bother you, brothers. Ying'er has to go home first." After saying that, he made a mischievous face, turned around and left.

On the white paper spread out on the table, it was clearly written: Fen. Qia. Liu. Sha.

The third brother shouted from behind: "Ying'er——"

Seeing me leaving calmly, Director Wang showed a strange smile on his face, "An, your fourth sister is not an easy person. Please bring her here more often in the future. Hongdiaohuashu is a lot more interesting."

How could Xie An care about this? He had already followed him away. Huan Wen leisurely flicked the folding fan in his hand, looked at Xunnan Tieqing's face, patted his trembling shoulders, and said clearly: "You can't get anything from her."

A little benefit," he said with a cheerful smile: "But this is her."

"Let's go, let's go to Yichun Garden. Let's meet your girl, Didangua." After saying that, he walked away.

Just as I was thinking about it, I was distracted by the noise outside the door. I had just dismissed the third brother, who was it? I had just been lying on a soft chair, and I didn't want anyone to take a breath.

"Miss, miss-" Yun Ying ran in panicked, "something big happened."

"What's wrong?" I turned over lazily. This big thing in Xie Mansion is none of my business.

"The affair between the second sister and the poor doctor was discovered by the master. He was very angry and said that he would take action against the family."

"What?!" I jumped up. Before Yun Ying could calm down, he was pulled by me and hurriedly ran to the hall. Isn't this poor doctor the Chen Ningyuan? If he uses family law, it will cost the lives of two people.

Well. I hope it's not too late to stop it.

As soon as they stepped into the hall, they saw the head of the family holding a thorn stick high and preparing to hit the two people kneeling on the ground. Chen Ningyuan's upright body was calm and fearless, and the second sister's body was shaking like pear blossoms with tears in the autumn wind.

My heart dropped, and my body reflexively used "Piaomiao" to pass.

When I left that day, I told him, "What I owe you today, I will pay back double in the future."

Unexpectedly, it would be fulfilled so soon.

Seeing the faces of the elders turning ashen, those eagle-like eyes locked on me tightly, as if I was a prey that fell from the sky. The instant pressure made me breathless, and my body was so stiff that I could hardly move.

No.

The people around me gasped and looked at me in astonishment. To be precise, they looked at me grabbing the thorn stick that the elder hit the two of them. At this time, my hand had been stabbed by it and was stabbing.

The ground was bleeding.

I couldn't care less about the heartache in the eyes of the third brother, the strangeness and complexity of the eldest brother, the shock in the eyes of the first lady and the fifth lady...

I pulled my stiff and chapped lips and forced a smile: "Dad, who made you lose such a temper?" Then I looked at the horrified second sister who was kneeling on the ground, and said as if she was frightened: "Why?

Maybe it’s the second sister, daddy, have you misunderstood something?”

Anyway, I had already stepped on the tiger's tail, so I wasn't afraid of being bitten by him. I forced myself to look at the parents calmly and said with a smile, "Dad, tell Ying'er. Is there any guarantee that Ying'er can help you?"

There was no trace of panic among the parents. They just looked at me quietly for a moment, chuckled, softened their faces, and said gently: "Does Ying'er really want to know?" After saying that, he put down the thorn in his hand and took my hand gently.

, gently wiping the blood with the brocade handkerchief that I carried with me, "Ying'er, your second sister's biggest mistake is not cherishing this body that belongs to the Xie family." There is no value for you to use it. I thought with contempt in my heart.

I looked up at him. Although the corners of his mouth were raised and his face was smiling, there was no smile in his dark eyes.

I still smiled innocently, but the coolness in my heart spread to the surroundings. What he said was that he would send the second sister to the palace in a year. I remembered the shy pink cheeks of the second sister when he read the love letter, and when Chen Ningyuan healed the patient.

The angle of the corners of the mouth is raised. I really can't bear to let the love between them be cut off. But there is nothing I can do -

At this time, the parent asked gently: "Does Ying'er really want to help dad?" After saying that, he took the medicine box sent by the housekeeper and applied medicine to the wound on the palm of my hand.

I nodded like a puppet. But I was sensitively aware of the approaching danger. But like a lone animal trapped in a trap, I had no room to struggle and could only listen to the approaching footsteps of death.

Now I am really like the caged bird described by Zhang Ailing: She is a bird embroidered on the screen...if she dies, she will die on the screen.

Everyone paused for a moment, then said intentionally or unintentionally: "So, can Ying'er take the place of your second sister and enter the palace on her behalf——"
