Chapter 210: A Den of Foxes
Just one sentence teased the person!
Su Nuan saw that Mu Yunting's ears were turning red visibly.
Suddenly the image of a pure and innocent puppy was established.
"So do you like it?"
The character that had just been established collapsed in an instant.
Such a straightforward question made Su Nuan confused for a moment, but she soon understood the meaning.
His bright eyes stared at the person in front of him without blinking.
After looking at it for a long time, the person asking the question felt his heart in his throat.
"like!"
As soon as these two words came out, someone's heart fell back into his stomach.
After Su Nuan expressed her feelings, she also wanted to hear what the other party had to say, but she waited and waited but nothing came of what she wanted to hear.
I felt disappointed and couldn't help but regret that I had just easily said "I like you".
If it were in the past, she might have advised herself to be more open-minded, forget it, and just treat it as if her true feelings had fallen into a ditch.
But in today's situation, she couldn't convince herself no matter what.
She felt that if Mu Yunting didn't say that he loved her today, she would be a clown.
Taking a deep breath, Su Nuan asked with a desperate momentum: "Your Highness, don't you want to say something to me?"
Mu Yunting's eyes moved slightly.
At this moment, he wished he could take the person back to the inn immediately.
He really regretted not taking the carriage back. If he had been in the carriage, he would have expressed his feelings without hesitation.
But how could he speak on the street?
As she waited, Su Nuan's eyes gradually lost their luster and her heart became ice-cold.
It took her a lot of effort to hold back the tears that welled up in her eyes.
Now I kind of regret asking that question, and I was being carried away by someone, the atmosphere was so awkward.
She wanted to get down and walk, but she was a rational person and would not put herself at risk of becoming lame because of something like this.
I have to endure the matter of face.
He closed his eyes, ignored everyone, and slowly fell asleep.
I don’t know how long I walked, but when I returned to the inn, Mu Yunting only felt his arms sore, but when he saw the sleeping face of the person in his arms, he felt satisfied.
I put the person on the bed and wondered whether I should wake him up and listen to what he said.
While hesitating, Ye Yin appeared at the door.
"Master, there is news."
With just one sentence, Mu Yunting was pulled away from Su Nuan.
Listening to the door opening and closing and the footsteps of two people fading away, Su Nuan opened her eyes.
In fact, she woke up when Mu Yunting carried her upstairs, but she didn't open her eyes because she didn't want to talk to him.
After lying in bed for a while, she remembered that her clothes were covered with dirt.
I got up, hopped on one leg, and found some clothes to change into.
Two people a few rooms away from her were whispering.
"Your Highness, Tracer sent a message that they have arrived in Liyang County."
"Okay, tell them to act quickly and find the person as soon as possible."
"There's news from the Imperial City, too. There really is action taking place there."
"Save people or kill people?"
"save."
"His purpose is not to save people, his purpose is to silence them. Keep him under surveillance. I cannot let Cheng Ji die before I return."
"Yes."
On the other side, Su Nuan was lying on the table fiddling with a coarse porcelain teacup out of boredom. The knock on the door made her pause.
"Who?"
"Ma'am, it's me."
Hearing that the person was Leng Yue, Su Nuan didn't want to talk.
"Ma'am, can I come in?"
"No."
As Su Nuan wished, there was no movement outside.
But it was only for a short while before the annoying voice rang out again, "Master, the Madam is injured and cannot move easily, why don't you let this humble concubine serve the Madam?"
"Okay. Until she recovers, I'll trouble you to take care of her."
"It is my humble concubine's blessing to be able to serve the Madam."
Su Nuan rolled her eyes fiercely at the door, thinking to herself that she couldn't afford your service.
With a creak, the door was pushed open and Mu Yunting came in.
Su Nuan glanced and turned his head back. Now there was one more person he didn't want to see. He came from behind and surpassed Leng Yue, becoming the most unpopular person.
"Why are you up?"
"I'm tired of lying down."
"How about I ask someone to get you a pen, ink, paper, and inkstone?"
In Mu Yunting's impression, Su Nuan was very energetic when she was writing and drawing at the desk.
Su Nuan wanted to say no, but after thinking about it, she changed her mind to "OK". It was too boring to stay like this, so she might as well draw something to pass the time.
Mu Yunting ordered someone to get pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and the room returned to peace.
In the past, when the two of them were together, Su Nuan was the one who found topics to talk about. But today, Su Nuan went on strike and the atmosphere became awkward.
Mu Yunting was thinking about how to continue the topic on the street and didn't notice that Su Nuan's attitude towards him was much colder than before.
The pen, ink, paper and inkstone were soon brought in.
Su Nuan spread the paper on the table, but stopped when she picked up the pen until a drop of ink fell on the paper, forming a cloud of ink.
She casually added a few dots and lines, and a vivid black fox appeared on the paper.
After finishing drawing a fox, he did not stop but continued working.
Mu Yunting came over quietly and took a look at the paper. Wow, there was a picture of a nest of foxes.
The leading one is obviously a male, with his head held high and chest puffed out, and sharp eyes. But why does this fox look so strange? He is wearing clothes, and the belt around his waist looks so familiar.
Mu Yunting subconsciously looked down at his belt and his mind was a little confused.
Continue looking behind the male fox, there are two female foxes, one on the left and one on the right.
Since the fox in front is him, the two behind should naturally be his two concubines. She can draw herself as a fox as well, and Mu Yunting feels balanced instantly.
However, as the details of the two female foxes become more and more detailed, it seems less and less so.
The one on the right had a red hairpin on her head, silk clothes on her body, and was wiping her tears with a silk handkerchief. Mu Yunting guessed that this was the crying Dong Jingshu.
You don’t even have to guess the one on the left. It’s also a fox with pointed ears and four legs, but its facial features are painted exactly like Leng Yue’s.
After finishing the fox's tail with the final stroke, Su Nuan picked up the pen with satisfaction.
Mu Yunting stood beside her, gritting his teeth in anger.
This woman said on the street that she liked him, and now she has painted him as a fox. Not only that, the female fox accompanying him in the painting is not her.
I thought this woman might be jealous, but who would believe it?
His face turned red from laughing, and his shoulders were still shaking.
Very angry!
Male fox, take your two female foxes and have fun.
Su Nuan breathed a sigh of relief.
Having Leng Yue around is not without its benefits. Look, she can now openly paint Xun Zheng as a fox.
I don’t know what Xun Fox is planning, and I don’t know if the big fall I fell today has anything to do with her.
Anyway, people hiding in the dark are not good people.
Su Nuan was planning in her mind how to make this fox show his true colors.
She still clearly remembered the look in the crowd today, the hatred in Xun Fox's eyes was so strong that it could not be dissolved.
Is her resentment directed at herself or Mu Yunting, or maybe both of them?
No, I can't let her resent me, otherwise once the Xun family case is concluded, I will have a hard time in the future.
The resentment must be diverted, and Su Nuan's gaze fell on the face of the fox she had drawn.
How would a woman feel if she saw the man she loved fall in love with "another self"?
Hehe, if you dare to put Leng Yue next to him, you will have to suffer the consequences!
