Zhao Shuning secretly channeled her spiritual energy.
After staying in the Lin family for so long, she had almost forgotten how to use her spiritual energy.
As soon as Zhao Shuning gathered her spiritual energy, her body quickly vanished from the room.
The window fluttered slightly. In the next instant, Zhao Shuning appeared in the middle of the yard.
Opposite her stood Wen Bo, dead drunk.
Zhao Shuning casually took out Huan'er's clothes from her Qiankun bag and put them on. Seeing Wen Bo coming, she quickly bowed to him.
"Master Wen, my young lady is not feeling well."
"Not feeling well? I'll give her a massage, and she'll feel better."
Fortunately, it was dark. Huan'er was about the same height as Zhao Shuning, and Wen Bo was drunk, so he didn't notice anything amiss.
"Master Wen, wait a moment. Actually, my young lady has something to say to you."
Wen Bo squinted his bleary eyes, looking at the maid in front of him. Her figure seemed to sway back and forth in front of his eyes.
"What is it? I'll talk to your young lady after I see her."
"Master Wen, my young lady said that she has feelings for you."
"What?"
Was it really Zhao Shuning, who had been so rude to him in the yard today, who had feelings for him?
"Yes. After our young lady came back today, she fell ill and has been lying in her room. Master Wen, what our young lady said is true. She really thinks she is not good enough for you. Seeing so many charming ladies around you, she couldn't control her temper for a moment. Moreover, you are a divine healer in the Sword Domain and now the well - known master of the Celestial Fairy Sect. It's only natural for our young lady to feel inferior."
Wen Bo held the wine flask and staggered.
"You little maid, what you said, hic—er—makes sense."
Zhao Shuning lowered her head and continued, "Master Wen, if our young lady knew you were coming to see her tonight, she would be very happy. But if you barge in like this, she might be frightened. She hasn't adjusted her mindset yet. If she meets you in her sick state, she might feel even more ashamed when you meet in the future."
Wen Bo was a bit dazed by what the little maid said.
His mind was not in control at this moment, and his thoughts just followed the little maid's words. Strangely enough, he thought what she said made sense.
"Then what do you suggest?"
"Master Wen, you can wait in the side hall first. I'll go and tell my young lady. After she dresses up and tidies herself, I'll take you in to see her. How about that?"
"Master Wen, you and my young lady will be husband and wife for a lifetime. You'll see each other every day. There's no need to be so impatient today."
"Okay. You little maid are so eloquent. I like you very much. Come on, take me to the side hall first. And hurry up."
After Wen Bo finished speaking, he picked up the wine flask and took another sip.
After Zhao Shuning led the man to the side hall, she quickly retreated.
As soon as she stepped out of the door, she bumped into a solid chest. Zhao Shuning immediately gathered spiritual energy in her hands when she heard a soft voice above her say, "It's me."
Zhao Shuning looked up in surprise.
"Master, why are you here?"
Yan Ruyu pulled Zhao Shuning onto the roof.
"Can't I come to see you if there's nothing wrong?"
"No. I'm very happy that you came to see me."
"Did that man touch you anywhere today?"
Zhao Shuning quickly shook her head.
A smile appeared on Yan Ruyu's face. That guy was lucky. If he had touched Ning'er, his hands would not have been spared.
Zhao Shuning said, "Master, I'm not a child anymore. You don't need to worry. He can't hurt me."
"I'm afraid he'll take advantage of you."
"It's not so easy to take advantage of me. Besides, with his appearance, I won't give him a chance."
A smile appeared on Yan Ruyu's face.
"Then what kind of person can catch Ning'er's eye?"
"At least someone like Master."
Zhao Shuning blurted it out without thinking.
The smile on Yan Ruyu's face grew wider. Zhao Shuning added, "Master, don't misunderstand. There's no one in the world who can compare to you. I don't have any improper thoughts about you."
Zhao Shuning was always afraid of making mistakes in front of Yan Ruyu.
She didn't think much when she usually spoke.
But in front of Yan Ruyu, after she spoke, she always had to carefully recall if there was anything that might offend him.
The more she explained, the more confused it became.
Just then, a woman slowly entered Zhao Shuning's yard.
It was Lin Qingying.
Zhao Shuning made a silent gesture with her lips. Yan Ruyu waved his sleeve gently, and their figures became transparent.
"Who is this woman?"
"Shh!"
Yan Ruyu pointed down. It seemed that the woman couldn't hear them?
Zhao Shuning let out a sigh of relief. Right, with the master here, no one could match his skills.
"She is Lin Qingying, the youngest daughter of Madam Begonia."
"What is she doing here in your room?"
"I'm going to give her a gift."
"What gift?"
"A top - quality Liuxian wide - sleeved dress."
"You're really generous."
Zhao Shuning pointed at the man in the side hall mysteriously and said to Yan Ruyu, "And him."
"Ning'er is being naughty."
"No, I'm doing a good deed. They are a perfect match. One is lustful, and the other is vicious. Master, I've inquired about this Lin Qingying. She had a crush on Wen Bo when she was a child. But Wen Bo didn't take a fancy to her. Lin Feng married her to a prominent family on the border to strengthen the alliance between the two families."
"Um."
"Lin Qingying, as a noble lady in that family, has been oppressing the common people and doing all kinds of evil things. Today, I'm bringing them together. It's like punishing the evil on behalf of the heaven."
Zhao Shuning said a lot in one breath.
Yan Ruyu watched as the night wind blew Zhao Shuning's hair into a mess. He reached out his hand and gently brushed the stray hairs in front of her forehead to the other side.
Zhao Shuning, who had been chattering non - stop, suddenly froze at this unexpected action. She didn't even dare to breathe.
Yan Ruyu said softly, "Your hair is messy."
It was not until Yan Ruyu stepped aside that Zhao Shuning let out a sigh of relief.
The master had obsessive - compulsive disorder and a cleanliness fetish. So his previous action had no other meaning. He just couldn't stand seeing her like this.
"Thank you, Master."
"That man is coming out."
Zhao Shuning quickly looked back and saw that Wen Bo had indeed walked out of the side hall and then walked to a big tree.
"Master, what is he doing?"
Yan Ruyu quickly covered Zhao Shuning's eyes with his hands.
After a while, he let go.
Zhao Shuning was just about to feel confused when she saw Wen Bo walking back, pulling up his pants as he walked. His gait was staggering.
She could probably guess why the master had covered her eyes just now.
