Chapter 123: Discovery
On the night of the Winter Festival, Wen Ziran saw Ruan Tingge in the teahouse, and his heart was inexplicably moved, even if he looked away, he would be absent-minded, and his eyes would still involuntarily look at her.
Wen Ziran didn't know why he was like this.
Later, when he saw Ruan Tingge leaving in a hurry, he was a little uneasy, that is, because of this restlessness, he happened to save Ruan Tingge from the gangsters.
Picking up Ruan Tingge, who had fainted from the alley, again, looking at her pale face and the blood stains on the corners of her mouth, Wen Ziran's mood was very complicated.
It was because of this complicated emotion that he subconsciously did not delve into his thoughts, but once again informed Ruan Qiguang and asked him to bring Ruan Tingge back to the palace.
At this time, seeing Ruan Tingge thanking himself so solemnly, Wen Ziran did not feel happy, but faintly felt a strange displeasure.
"It's just a gesture, and I don't deserve such a heavy gift from the county lord." Wen Ziran's voice faded.
Ruan Tingge said, "It may be convenient for Gongzi Wen, but for me, it is a life-saving grace." ”
"I want to thank Gongzi Wen personally, but my father sees me closely, and it is difficult for me to have the opportunity to leave the mansion, so I can only meet with Gongzi Wen here."
Wen Ziran didn't bother with what Ruan Qinge said, but said, "I have received the thank you gift carefully prepared by the county lord, and the county lord doesn't need to come to thank you." ”
Wen Ziran's gaze lowered, resting on the teacup in his hand, as if he had a flat reaction to Ruan Tingge's thanks.
Ruan Tingge didn't expect that after his sincere thanks, Wen Ziran reacted like this.
She paused, but continued, "What I said just now is only part of the reason, in fact, I asked Gongzi Wen to meet, and I still want to know..."
Before Ruan Tiange finished speaking, Wen Ziran suddenly frowned, and the teacup he was holding in his hand suddenly threw it out of the door, and he heard a crisp sound outside the door, and the teacup thrown out of the door flew back in an instant, flying straight towards Wen Ziran.
Ruan Qingge was startled, and before she could react, Wen Ziran's white sleeves flicked, and the teacup fell into his sleeves without a sound.
He lowered his eyes and slowly took out the teacup in his sleeve, the tea in the teacup had already been spilled on the ground when he threw it out, and only some remained in the cup, which flowed out at this time, wetting Wen Ziran's sleeves and leaving a faint brown trace.
Wen Ziran's expression was very cold, but his voice did not fluctuate and said, "It's late at night, who is sneaking outside the door to eavesdrop?" ”
No one answered outside the door, Wen Ziran glanced at Ruan Tingge, who was staring at Wen Ziran with a pair of eyes at this time.
"Be careful." Wen Ziran turned his head and said just two words to Ruan Tingge, and his figure flashed, and he arrived at the door of the house in a breath.
"Young Master Wen..."Ruan Tingge didn't have time to make a move, he just shouted, and the sound of Wen Ziran fighting with someone came from the door.
Ruan Qingge hurriedly ran to the door, and saw two figures in the courtyard, one white and one gray, staggering rapidly.
That white figure is naturally Wen Ziran, and that gray figure...
Although the courtyard was very dark, Ruan Tingge still caught a glimpse of the gray figure's face, frowned, and said, "Guard Jiang Qing, is it you?" “
At this time, Wen Ziran flicked his sleeves, and the gray-clothed man in front of him took two or three steps back before stopping.
Hearing Ruan Qinge's voice, Wen Ziran stopped, and glanced at the gray-clothed man in front of him who was gasping for breath with a pair of eyes, "Does the county lord know him?" ”
"Young Master Wen, this is Jiang Qing's guard, and he is here to protect my safety."
Ruan Qingge didn't expect Jiang Qing to follow her, but she didn't say anything in front of Wen Ziran, glanced at Jiang Qing, then turned her head to Wen Ziran and nodded apologetically, explaining.
"I didn't have time to talk to Mr. Wen before, but I caused this misunderstanding, so please don't mind Mr. Wen."
Wen Ziran's expression returned to his usual appearance, no longer cautious and indifferent as before, he did not ask Ruan Qinge, but said, "The county lord's guards are very conscientious. ”
Jiang Qing was still standing in the courtyard, breathing a little heavily, hearing Wen Ziran's words, his already expressionless face added a bit of coldness, and his dark eyes looked at Wen Ziran coldly.
"Don't worry, Gongzi Wen, the guards Jiang Qing are reliable people," Ruan Qingge frowned slightly, and turned his head to look at Jiang Qing, "Guards Jiang Qing, I have something to say to Gongzi Wen, you go and wait outside the courtyard." ”
Jiang Qing stood still and did not move.
Ruan Qinge's eyes were even more annoyed, and he shouted again, "Jiang Qing's guards? ”
Jiang Qing's gaze stayed on Ruan Qingge's face for a while, and seeing the warning in her eyes, he pursed his lips and turned to leave the courtyard.
Ruan Tingge pursed his lips slightly, and said to Wen Ziran, "Young Master Wen, let's go into the house." ”
Wen Ziran's expression did not move, he glanced at Ruan Tingge, turned around and walked back into the house.
Ruan Tingge then walked in, and with a squeaky sound, Wen Ziran's ears moved slightly, and he turned his head to see Ruan Tingge closing the door.
After she closed the door, she turned around and leaned against the door and looked at Wen Ziran.
Seeing Ruan Tingge leaning against the door and looking at him with a smile, Wen Ziran's eyebrows moved slightly, but he didn't speak, just looked at Ruan Tingge quietly.
The two looked at each other for a while, but neither spoke to each other.
Ruan Qingge took a while before he spoke, "Young Master Wen's martial arts are quite powerful. ”
As she spoke, she smiled, "I haven't heard of it before. ”
Wen Ziran looked calm, without a worry or embarrassment of discovering the secret, he looked at the smug smile on Ruan Qinge's face, and his eyes deepened.
"The county lord's martial arts are also very good." Wen Ziran said.
Ruan Tingge smiled, with light in his eyes, "It's not as good as Gongzi Wen." ”
She winked at Wen Ziran, "Young Master Wen's internal strength is deep, and he can also help people heal, which I won't." ”
Hearing that Ruan Tingge still said her guess, Wen Ziran's expression on her face at this time was a little unnatural, but she quickly covered it up.
His lips moved, and he said, "I see that the county lord's internal injuries are serious, and they hurt his lungs, and if he is not cured in time, he may leave a future trouble, and he will be offended..."
"Young Master Wen doesn't need to explain this, I understand."
Seeing Wen Ziran open his mouth to say such a long word, Ruan Tingge still noticed that he was a little different from just now.
She smiled and added, "Gongzi Wen not only saved me, but also healed my internal injuries, I don't know how to thank you, how can I still feel offended." ”
Wen Ziran stared at Ruan Qinge's smile, and an inexplicable look flashed in his eyes.
"The county lord has already said a lot of thank you tonight." Wen Ziran's voice was a little soft.
Ruan Qinge was stunned, looked at Wen Ziran, and found that Wen Ziran's handsome face had a look that she couldn't understand, and she was looking at herself deeply.
