Shen Xingwan didn't care that Qi Zhiwei looked like she was about to faint. She picked up her skirt and ran towards the lotus pond.
Just falling into the water, Qi Zhiwei would not be so out of character...
Memories of the past flashed through her mind. Mingyue was the first girl who took the initiative to talk to her when she went to the academy.
Like a little sun, surrounding her every day.
I will leave delicious food for her and tell her that you have the most beautiful smile.
Although he looks like a child who has not grown up, he can always sense her unhappiness and try his best to make her happy...
If Qi Zhiwei is a close friend, then Mingyue is her younger sister.
She is the sister who has always protected her and hopes that she will always be happy.
Shen Xingwan rushed to the lotus pond. The place was surrounded by layers of maids and women, and the lights illuminated the place like daylight.
"Girl, you can't go in now." The stewardess stretched out her hand to stop her.
Shen Xingwan pushed her hand away without saying a word and rushed inside.
"Stop her!" Nanny said anxiously. The eldest lady ordered no one to come near her.
There was such a big movement that Xie Zhuohua turned around and saw her.
He walked up to greet her, "Sister Xingwan, why are you here?"
However, Shen Xingwan didn't even look at her, and walked straight past her like a wandering spirit.
He stared straight ahead at the motionless person lying on the ground covered with a white cloth beside the lotus pond.
"Miss!"
Banxia Dongqing and the others also chased after them, and Fu Jingchao took the opportunity to help Qi Zhiwei lower his head and blend in among them.
"Mingyue..." Qi Zhiwei finally fell to her knees, clutching her chest and sobbing.
Shen Xingwan looked up stiffly and looked at the fourth young lady standing aside, her eyes so bright that it was scary, "Who is lying on the ground?"
The fourth young lady took half a step back due to her cold eyes.
"It's the Du family girl, Du Mingyue." Shen Anfeng said solemnly.
Shen Xingwan slowly squatted down, opened the white curtain, and saw Du Mingyue lying there with messy hair and clothes, and a pale face.
He reached out and wiped the dirty water on her face with his sleeve, "The moon is rising soon, and the ground is cold."
"Get up and go back to the yard together. I'll make you something delicious, okay?"
"Don't make this kind of joke with me, it's not funny at all."
"Are you trying to scare me again by being mean?"
"If you don't open your eyes and get up, I'm going to be angry..."
Chen Xingwan wiped her face dry and spoke to her with a calm expression...
A gust of cold wind blew by, and everyone shivered. This scene was so breathtaking.
We can't continue like this. People's hearts are already shaking even if people are killed.
Shen Anfeng immediately made a decision in his heart, "Carry Miss Du to the yard."
Several women bravely approached.
Shen Xingwan stood up immediately, with a frighteningly cold expression on his face. His eyes were full of oppression and he said, "No one is allowed to touch her!"
Probably because her aura was too strong, the mother-in-law looked at Shen Anfeng in embarrassment, "Second Young Master?"
Shen Anfeng walked over and stood in front of Shen Xingwan, staring at her, "Get out of the way, don't mess around."
"Am I kidding?" Shen Xingwan twitched the corner of his mouth and yelled, "What the hell do you know? Just shut up if you don't understand!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the entire courtyard fell silent.
As the heir of this generation of the Shen family, Shen Anfeng was not the only person who dared to speak to him like this.
Shen Anfeng was also stunned by her yelling, and his face looked a little ugly.
"I asked you to get out of the way, don't you understand?"
"I told you to get out, don't you understand?"
"No one touches her!"
Shen Xing said sternly, as if he would fight anyone who dared to move.
"Chanyi, come here and show Mingyue."
Chanyi walked over with everyone watching, examined Du Mingyue, and tried every means to give first aid...
Many people at the scene had already looked away, and a young and soft-hearted girl secretly had her eyes red.
Time passed little by little, and Shen Xingwan stood there and wrote poems to Shen Anfeng without giving up.
Until Chanyi was sweating profusely and said weakly, "Miss, please forgive me..."
At that moment, Shen Xingwan's entire face quickly lost color, and the blood seemed to be frozen bit by bit.
How could this happen? It was obvious that not long ago, she was still pestering her to act coquettishly.
We agreed to go out and play together when she returns to the academy.
Shen Xingwan staggered, and Shen Anfeng grabbed her hand quickly and whispered, "Let her go to the yard, it's already dark."
This time Shen Xingwan said nothing, as if he had lost his soul.
Shen Anfeng pulled her aside, and the servant quickly moved Du Mingyue to the yard next to the lotus pond.
The Fourth Young Madam and the Second Madam all dispersed, and what happened next was a headache.
"Xingwan, are you okay?" Xie Zhuohua asked.
"I want to be alone for a while." Shen Xingwan said in a stiff tone.
"Look after your lady." Shen Anfeng said.
Qi Zhiwei was so sad that she fainted from crying.
Banxia and Dongqing hurriedly helped people into the yard. Fu Jingchao said softly, "You go first, I'm here."
Soon only Shen Xingwan and Fu Jingchao were left by the lotus pond.
Fu Jingchao pulled the somewhat sluggish Shen Xingwan aside under the willow tree, reached out and patted her back, "If you feel uncomfortable, just cry."
Shen Xingwan said nothing. How long had it been since she had experienced this feeling?
In her previous life, her mother lost her mother when she was eight years old. She almost fainted from crying.
When she lost her father at the age of twenty, she had learned to cry silently.
this time…
Shen Xingwan touched the corners of his eyes, but there were no tears.
Through losing again and again, she has long understood that tears are the most useless thing.
Shen Xingwan raised his head and said coldly, "I'm not going to cry. I'm not the one who should cry."
She didn't believe that Du Mingyue would fall for no reason. This kind of banquet was usually carefully arranged, so it was impossible for him to fall and die like this without anyone noticing.
The murderer didn't pay the price or cry!
She won't cry!
After Shen Xingwan said this, he wanted to run into the yard.
Fu Jingchao pulled her into his arms and pressed her head on his shoulders, "Why are you so stubborn? It must be very painful."
"It hurts so much that I can't even cry..."
"If you feel very painful and tired, you can rest for a while before continuing. You don't have to keep pushing yourself..."
Shen Xingwan struggled for a while, then quickly leaned on his shoulder and calmed down.
It really hurt, she wanted to go crazy, she wanted to scream!
But she knew clearly that she couldn't, she had to stay calm, and she wanted to find the murderer.
She doesn't believe in any bullshit accident!
After a while, Shen Xingwan stepped away from his arms and said, "I want to go see her."
Fu Jingchao supported her and said, "I'll go with you."
Shen Xingwan walked into the courtyard step by step, and Du Mingyue, who loved to laugh and make fun, just lay there quietly.
Shen Xingwan stood at the door and watched, but did not go in.
She always had the illusion that as long as she called her, she would come to her with a lively smile instead of lying there coldly.
★The basic plot of the Jiangnan part has been laid out and will soon reach the climax and ending.
Some unclear parts will be explained later, such as the truth about this banquet.
Also, Du Mingyue is not a character who appears suddenly. She has appeared before as a friend of Xingwan, and she didn’t have many roles. (I’m afraid someone may have forgotten.)
