Chapter 192: Chapter 192

Several people looked at Shen Weixi: Are you going to kill to keep a secret?

For a moment, they even supported it!

That person spreading rumors is truly hateful! Nearly caused a fatal incident!

Mr. Baili smiled slightly, "Miss Shen despises evil, but I’m sorry, I don’t know either."

Some of them volunteered, "We know! Miss Shen, let me take you to find them."

"But... they seemed to have heard it from someone else, but it doesn’t matter, we can follow the clues to capture the mastermind!"

Shen Weixi furrowed her brows in thought, catching these filthy vermin in the dark was very important, but the most urgent thing now was to check Yue’er’s injuries.

"Sir, you mentioned earlier that Princess Qin is severely injured, how is she?"

Mr. Baili sighed slightly, "The princess is weak, and on top of that, she was injured and poisoned; her condition is rather dire."

Shen Weixi panicked immediately upon hearing this, "Sir, what do you mean by ’not good’? Person, person..."

Seeing her face turn white with fright, Baili offered words of comfort, "Miss Shen, don’t panic. Elder Mo has practiced medicine for over eighty years and has dealt with countless difficult cases, snatching many lives from King Yan’s grasp. His medical skills are superb, and the princess surely will be fine."

Elder Mo’s reputation is like thunder to the ears, and Shen Weixi is aware, feeling slightly more assured but still unable to control the nervousness in her heart.

"Thank you, Mr. Baili. I will go to the Prince Qin Mansion to check immediately."

However, Mr. Baili stopped her, "With Elder Mo there, the princess is not in mortal danger, but she needs quiet rest due to her severe injuries and should not be disturbed."

"I’ll just take a look from afar, certainly not disturbing her."

Mr. Baili appeared solemn, shaking his head slightly, "That would be detrimental to her recovery."

Mr. Baili is acknowledged as Elder Mo’s successor, and his words naturally carry significant weight.

"I’ll just look from afar, just a glance, I won’t speak, I promise not to disturb her."

Without seeing for herself, she really couldn’t relax...

In Shen Weixi’s hopeful gaze, Mr. Baili simply shook his head slightly.

"Additionally, Prince Qin has already ordered to close the doors and refuse visitors, except Elder Mo and Huayi Hall physicians, no outside visitors are allowed until the princess is recovered."

Shen Weixi felt her heart sink.

Then she heard him say, "While visiting the mansion today, I happened to see a peculiar dog, soaring through the sky with a pair of wings."

Mr. Baili glanced at Shen Weixi, who turned pale at the mention of dogs, and suddenly chuckled softly, "Miss Shen, if two hearts are meant to stay together, there’s no need to meet morning and night."

Although she hadn’t read much, she knew that this poem supposedly tells a love story about a couple’s poignant and enduring relationship?

"Mr. Baili, did you make a mistake... huh? Where is he? Mr. Baili?"

By the time Shen Weixi regained her senses, Mr. Baili’s silhouette was nowhere to be found, and even those gossipers had vanished without a trace.

Shen Weixi touched her nose, deciding to try her luck at the Prince Qin Mansion.

She immediately returned home to fetch her wings and instructed someone to prepare half a sack of bones.

At that time, carrying this sack of bones, if the dog chased her, she would throw a bone to lure it away.

Shen Weixi imagined it beautifully, but reality was harsh.

As she flew over the high walls of the Prince Qin Mansion with a sack of bones, and had flown less than fifty meters, she heard a dog barking mightily from behind.

Turning her head, Shen Weixi saw the dog soaring through the clear sky, sporting a pair of colorful wings, gnashing its teeth as it flew towards her.

Startled, Shen Weixi tried to steady herself, pulled out a bone from the sack, and threw it towards it.

Unexpectedly, the dog just glanced sideways but remained uninterested in the bone, continuing to flap its colorful wings, chasing her relentlessly.

She tossed two more bones, but the dog was still unmoved.

Shen Weixi was stunned, could there actually be a dog in this world that doesn’t favor bones?! Impossible, right?

Thinking it over, Shen Weixi figured it’s probably the dog of the Prince Qin Mansion, accustomed to the grandeur alongside King Qin, likely having witnessed the blood and gore of battlefields.

So, steeling herself, she threw out the entire half sack of bones.

"Humph! I refuse to believe you won’t chase the bones this time."

The dog merely lifted its eyelids at the tempting bones, bit its teeth, and continued its relentless chase towards Shen Weixi.

With the wind whistling behind her and the deafening barking, Shen Weixi frantically flapped her wings, sweating profusely.

"Help! Someone, anyone from the Prince Qin Mansion? Your dog is a murderer!"

"Oh my! What kind of dog is this!!"

Unfortunately, Yun Ran couldn’t hear Shen Weixi’s cries and couldn’t rescue her.

The sun was setting, and the sky was ablaze with clouds, Yun Ran sat leisurely on a swing reading a book.

These days, nestled in the secluded valley, undisturbed by external matters, she enjoyed the sun, the breeze, and the flowers, combined with Nangong Mo’s meticulous care—the best healing herbs and nutritious ingredients meant her injuries were about sixty to seventy percent healed.

Yun Ran pondered in her heart that before leaving the valley, she certainly must remove the scoundrel’s mask and catch his fox tail!

"Does the young lady read these books daily, perhaps envying the love stories of lovers sacrificing everything for love recorded within?"

A teasing laugh came, as the man placed a platter of sliced fruit on the bamboo table beside her.

Speaking quite cheekily, he said, "Are you tired of Nangong Mo? How about considering divorcing him and adventuring across the world with me?"

Yun Ran gave him a sideways glance, and sneered, "With you, one day into adventuring across the world and you’d die eight times, your head would be beaten off!"

The man snorted lightly, indifferent, "My martial skills are outstanding, if anything, I would be the one beating others to death, right?"

"It’s Nangong Mo who would be beaten to death."

Yun Ran: "..." Tʜe sourcᴇ of thɪs content ɪs novel_fіre.net

[Simply can’t watch!]

[Is the dog man addicted to acting?]

Though ignored, the man didn’t mind at all, placing his hands behind his head and lazily reclining on the rattan chair beside Yun Ran, leisurely and carefree.

"By the way, you’ve been captured for so long, and yet Nangong Mo hasn’t come to find you, maybe he’s changed his heart, found another beauty, and long since forgotten you."

Yun Ran picked up the cup and took a sip of tea, holding back the urge to splash tea in his face, coldly curled her lips, "He’d better not, or I’ll poison him."

The man turned his head to look at her, his eyes shining brightly, "And what then, after poisoning him? How about considering marrying me?"

"My family has riches galore, a thousand acres of good land, all yours if you marry me."

Yun Ran secretly gritted her teeth, she endured!

It was barely nightfall before Yun Ran listened to the steady and rhythmic breathing from the corner of the room and slowly opened her eyes.

She got out of bed very quietly, approaching him silently.
