Chapter 695: Panic
Lie Chang'an rode a horse from the welcome building all the way back to Lie's Mansion.
He turned over and dismounted neatly, crossed the threshold and was about to go inside, when he suddenly paused, startling Pei Song, who was hurriedly following and preparing to enter the door.
"What's wrong, boss?"
Pei Song didn't know why.
Lie Changan turned around, looked at the uneasy janitor standing next to him with a sharp gaze, and saw that his face was pale, and he was standing there helplessly, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he asked in a cold voice, "What's the matter?" What are you doing in such a panic? ”
Pei Song followed and looked at the janitor, marveling at the boss's ability to have such a keen observation under this urgent mood, and the janitor's panicked appearance was that something had happened.
Pei Song's heart tightened inexplicably, and when he saw that the janitor was still twisting and pinching and didn't dare to speak, he couldn't help but scold loudly, "The general asked you something!" Say it! ”
The janitor was instructed by his grandmother to delay time, but he didn't expect General Chang'an to glance at him at the door at random and find that something was wrong with him, so he could only say what his grandmother explained in his heart in advance.
"The old lady is out...... The young lady also went out......"
He deliberately couldn't say why, but Lie Changan's face changed greatly when he heard it, and he asked sharply, "What do you mean?" How could the old lady and the young lady go out so late? ”
"The little ones don't know ......"
The gatekeeper secretly glanced at General Chang'an's suddenly gloomy face, stared straight at him with a sharp gaze, and was a little apprehensive in his heart, so he could only lower his head and continue, "When the time came, someone sent a letter to the Liefu Mansion, saying that it was for the young lady. The old lady saw that it was sent by the North Prince's Mansion, and remembered that Wang Yanyun, the second lady of the North Prince's Mansion, had an entanglement with the young lady, so she couldn't help but open the letter for the young lady. As a result, the letter said that the young lady was asked to meet in the peony room on the second floor of the welcome building. ”
Lie Chang'an's heart sank when he heard this, and he panicked inexplicably.
The old lady was worried that this Wang Yanyun would be unfavorable to the young lady, so she didn't tell the young lady about this letter, so she thought that she would go to meet this Wang Yanyun first to see what tricks she played...... As a result, not long after the old lady set off, the young lady hurriedly ran out of the house without knowing how to learn the news......"
Lie Chang'an's face turned pale after hearing this, he clenched his fists tightly, and roared angrily, "At such a late hour, the old lady and the young lady left the mansion one after another, won't you stop it?!" ”
The little gatekeeper trembled and cried and said, "How dare the little one stop the old lady and the young lady...... The old lady took someone by carriage...... As for the young lady, she hurriedly chased her out by herself......"
Ran out alone?
Lie Changan listened to the cold sweat in his palms, and his heart beat in his chest like a big pole slamming the city gate, not only uneven, but also as tight as once.
His mind went blank, and he subconsciously turned around and walked out.
Suddenly, there was a sound of horses' hooves not far away, and Lie Changan looked back and saw a carriage slowly approaching in the dark night.
It's grandmother's carriage!
Lie Changan seemed to grasp a life-saving straw, and walked over anxiously, grandmother lifted the curtain and got out of the car, seeing Lie Chang'an was so anxious that he was sweating profusely, and pretended to be surprised, "Chang'an, what's wrong with you?" ”
Lie Changan didn't answer, only opened the carriage curtain and looked inside, there was no figure in his hometown, he seemed to have lost all his strength, and his steps staggered.
