Chapter Forty-Six: Rivals Meet
On the second day, when Mu Xinya woke up, there was no old man in white robe in the broken temple, and when she got up, she accidentally touched something with her foot, and when she looked down, it was an open bag, with a few steamed buns and some broken silver
Is this what the old grandfather left her?
Mu Xinya was very surprised, she couldn't imagine that the old man was so kind to her, so good, at this moment, her stomach was indeed hungry and penniless
After thinking about it for a while, Mu Xinya still chose to accept this intention, and when she left, she deliberately paid attention to this broken temple, and when she found Fang Yunting, she must come back here again, thank the old man, and then return the silver to him
The blood from the wound on his arm had congealed, but as long as he touched it, he would still be painful, and he walked towards Yanxiling, and along the way, he was afraid of bumping into the killer sent by the eldest lady, so he could only lower his head and pretend to be an ordinary passerby
After rushing for more than half a day to Yanxi Ridge, Mu Xinya's heart was suddenly mixed, Chen was full of sorrow and joy, and she couldn't wait to immediately throw herself into Fang Yunting's arms and cry bitterly
Fang Yunting, Fang Yunting, do you know how many tears she shed, how much suffering she has endured, and what kind of calamities she has experienced to come back alive to see him
Thinking of this, Mu Xinya couldn't help but speed up her steps, and ran into the thatched house
There is no one, Fang Yunting is not here
Looking around at the empty thatched house, she didn't see anyone she wanted to see, Mu Xinya's heart instantly lost a large piece of sourness, and her body was weak, and she wanted to sit down on the wooden chair directly, but when she looked at the table and chair, her eyes froze, and her back stiffened
The tables and chairs, which had always been clean, had a fine layer of dust on them at the moment, which was very dazzling in the sun
This represents...... Fang Yunting had never come back in the past few days, otherwise he would not have accumulated so much dust
Here's what's going on
The previous loss was immediately replaced by a strong worry, and Mu Xinya began to worry about where Fang Yunting's people went, where was she going to find him, or would he come back here to find her
After hesitating, Mu Xinya suddenly remembered that Yanxiling had been found by Fang Yunting's enemies, so it wasn't necessarily safe here
Yixiang Pavilion Liu Ruxi may know Yun Ting's whereabouts at the moment, and according to the deep friendship between the two of them, maybe the two of them are together at this moment
Mu Xinya was even more sad, but she didn't hesitate any longer, and rushed directly to Yixiang Pavilion, no matter what, find him first
"Childe, come in and take a look", "Childe, let the slave family serve you well"
At the door of Yixiang Pavilion, there were still a few warblers and warblers with flowers and branches, Yanyan was enthusiastically soliciting customers, Mu Xinya clenched her fists and walked towards the door
"Who are you looking for, girl, I'm afraid you're going to the wrong place," Sure enough, a woman in pink stretched out her arms and glared at her, and directly stopped her
Mu Xinya looked up and saw that the person in front of her was so familiar, but it was not the Sisi who received her when she made a big fuss in Yixiang Pavilion last time, but it seemed that Sisi had completely forgotten about her
Forgot...... Best......
"Hello, I'm here to find Liu Ruxi, Miss Liu," Mu Xinya said cautiously, while scanning the surroundings with her residual light, there are many people here, and she is afraid of running into someone from the Prime Minister's Mansion
"Sister Ruxi, what are you doing when you come to our sister Ruxi," Sisi blinked and blinked her big eyes
"I'm here to join her, I'm her ......" Even if she was hard-headed, Mu Xinya was still choked by what she said, she was her rival
"What is it to say, why is the girl so good that she doesn't speak," Sisi raised his voice and swept her up and down suspiciously
Yixiang Pavilion appeared in her little girl dressed like this, it was already unusual, coupled with Sisi's eyes and tone, someone around had already noticed her, and dense fine sweat oozed from Mu Xinya's fair forehead
"I, I am her old acquaintance, my parents are dead, I hope Miss Liu can help me"
"Really," Sisi's foxy gaze wandered to her hand that was covering the wound on her arm, and suddenly reached out and grabbed her hand
"Sisi, what this girl said is true, she is indeed my old friend, don't embarrass her anymore, let her in first"
The soft sound of water floated from behind, Sisi's hand immediately froze in the air, and then immediately hung a flattering smile, and turned around, only to see Liu Ruxi, who was wearing an apricot yellow gauze skirt, standing on the steps of the stairs on the second floor, looking at them condescendingly
"Yo Sister Ruxi, why did you come out, hehe, it turns out that this is really Sister Ruxi's old friend, I thought she was a swaggering liar, you must know that Sister Ruxi is now well-known in the capital, and many people are red-eyed."
Sisi smiled flatteringly, that smile seemed really fake to Mu Xinya, and Mu Luorou's acting skills were much better than her
Suddenly, Sisi pulled her arm hard, just touching her wound, making her gasp in pain, and Sisi ignored it and pushed her directly in front of her
"Didn't this girl see that Sister Ruxi was waiting for you, why don't you hurry up," he said and pushed her forward
Push what push to take her for something
Mu Xinya was a little annoyed in her heart, gritted her teeth, but endured it, and walked slowly towards her under Liu Ruxi's gaze, for the sake of Fang Yunting, she endured
"Miss Mu go to my room to talk"
Before he walked in front of Liu Ruxi, Liu Ruxi opened his mouth lightly, turned around and walked upstairs, Mu Xinya looked at the moving apricot-colored figure, lowered her head and followed silently
It was still the boudoir she had been to, but Fang Yunting was not in it
Mu Xinya stood outside the door, not knowing whether she was sad or happy, Liu Ruxi, who had already walked into the room, found that she didn't follow up, stopped and glanced at her
"I didn't see the person I wanted to see here in Ruxi, which disappointed Miss Mu," even after saying such faint sarcastic words, she could still give people a gentle and elegant feeling
Liu Ruxi, she is not a simple character
The current Mu Xinya is no longer the simple-minded Mu Xinya she used to be, after so many ups and downs, with the bloody lesson of Mu Luorou in the past, now she can at least see at a glance how deep a person can hide
"On the contrary, I'm not disappointed at all, I'm very happy to disturb Miss Liu, say goodbye," hooked the corners of his lips and smiled slightly, when he saw the surprise flashing in Liu Ruxi's eyes, Mu Xinya suddenly felt happy, turned around and wanted to leave in style
"Miss Mu, please stay," Liu Ruxi suddenly stopped her, Mu Xinya sneered, and planned to ignore her and leave directly
"It's about Yun Ting" The footsteps instantly stuck in place
"Miss Mu can choose not to listen, but Ruxi is afraid that you will regret it for the rest of your life"
……………………
Sitting in Liu Ruxi's room, Mu Xinya felt a little dull, "What do you want to say to me?"
Seeing her impatience, Liu Ruxi's face was still light, and her eyes stopped on her injured arm, and she found out that she was injured from the time she was pulling her arm just now
Without saying a word, Liu Ruxi walked into the curtain and came out with a brocade box in her hand, she walked to Mu Xinya, stopped, put the brocade box on the wooden table, and gently raised her arm
"What are you doing here," Mu Xinya looked at her in surprise
"As a girl, won't the family protect themselves," she said softly, gently rolling up her sleeve, taking out a medicine bottle, and began to medicate her
Mu Xinya's whole body was choked, and she didn't know what to say, but Liu Ruxi's next sentence immediately made her good feelings for her just rise disappear
"Or do you want Yun Ting to stay by your side for the rest of your life to protect you?"
"So what," she glared at her in displeasure
Liu Ruxi sighed softly, a faint sadness was dyed between her eyebrows, and she still concentrated on medicating her, "Do you know why I always have so many plasters in my room, one is for myself, and the other is for Yun Ting."
"What does this mean by preparing for you and Yun Ting," Mu Xinya frowned puzzled
"Yun Ting is a person who practices martial arts, and he will inevitably suffer a small injury when he practices on weekdays or fights with others, and every time he is injured, I help him deal with his wounds."
Liu Ruxi's voice was very flat, but Mu Xinya understood a little bit and felt very uncomfortable, they had known each other for many years, and they had a great friendship
"As for myself," Liu Ruxi stopped what she was doing, reached out and lifted her sleeve and stretched her arm in front of Mu Xinya, unexpectedly seeing a stunned look on the other party's face
I saw that the white lotus root arm was covered with large and small scars, although the traces were very faint, but it could still be seen if you looked closely
"How did these injuries come about?" Mu Xinya's eyes widened
Liu Ruxi chuckled indifferently, put down his sleeves, tidied up his clothes, walked over and sat down, "I have always been a performer in this Yixiang Pavilion, but there will always be people who make trouble to find trouble, in order to keep his innocence, he can only bear these pains silently, Miss Mu, do you understand?"
She stared at her with burning eyes, which made Mu Xinya's heart chuckle
"But aren't you the number one in Yixiang Pavilion, how dare those people beat you?"
"The top card, hehe, in front of real money and the powerful, the first card is something, even if those people want my life, it's just a matter of hooking their fingers, this is the way of the world, if you want to live, you must first learn to protect yourself, be smart, otherwise you will lose"
Mu Xinya looked at Liu Ruxi's well-groomed face, clenched her fists, and said to her very tightly in her heart, saying these things very much, and now she also understands that if she wants to live, it is definitely not as easy as she imagined
"In that case, have you ever thought about escaping or leaving Yixiang Pavilion, these Fang Yunting should be able to help you do it" With her understanding of Fang Yunting, Fang Yunting is a person who values love and righteousness, and will never let Liu Ruxi stay out of this dire situation
Mu Xinya looked at Liu Ruxi with a little excitement, but when she saw the flickering light under her eyes, she suddenly understood something, and her eyes dimmed
"Yun Ting......" Hearing Fang Yunting's name, Liu Ruxi's originally indifferent eyes showed a strange brilliance, and the corners of his lips smiled softly: "I won't leave, if I can't see him again after leaving, then I'd rather be trapped in this Yixiang Pavilion for the rest of my life, you know, at the beginning, I also thought about suicide, I thought about dying a hundred, but at that time, it was Yun Ting who appeared in front of me, and he taught me a lesson, and from now on, no one dares to bully me as unscrupulously as before."
