Chapter 30: A Late Night Visitor
A very normal day passed like this.
When everyone fell into a deep sleep again, there was a small lamp in one room, which seemed to be waiting for someone.
So, when Xiaowen quietly left his room with Uncle Wang on the second floor and slowly walked up to the third floor, he didn't have to knock on the door, and walked directly into this room with a light specially for him.
He looked at Sima Jingling, who was sitting quietly in front of the door, waiting for him to arrive, and couldn't help but smile on his face,
"Let Miss Wei wait, but Miss Wei doesn't seem to be completely defenseless."
As soon as Xiaowen closed the door and was greeting Sima Jingling, he found that he had a knife on his neck.
He raised his head slightly, glanced down at the short knife that glowed with cold light even in the dim candlelight, and hurriedly raised his hand in surrender.
But a pair of eyes that seemed to be smiling but not smiling, but there was no fear in any way.
"This boy is visiting late at night, so I should be on guard, right?"
Hyowen shrugged, indicating that this was not something he could control.
He pointed to the knife around his neck, smiled at Sima Jingling in a friendly manner, and said in a negotiable but implied tone:
"I came to find Miss Wei at this time, but I really don't mean anything else, not to mention, I myself have no ill will towards Miss Wei.
If Miss Wei minds the time when I come to visit you, then it's no wonder I'm really sorry. After all, there are people coming and going during the day, and I'm in your room, it's too eye-catching, isn't it? Moreover, in the morning, Miss Wei and Shopkeeper Liu had something like that. ”
After listening to Xiaowen's words, Sima Jingling looked at him fixedly for a long time, and found that the person in front of her who looked beautiful and didn't seem to be very old, but his eyes were very sharp, and when he looked at her, he didn't show any fear and retreat, and he already had a rough guess about this person in his heart.
She just waved her hand casually and let people retreat.
She asked lightly: "I don't know how you quietly passed on the news that you were coming to visit me tonight, but now that you have come and indeed met my people, then we don't have to say any inconsequential greetings, or should we go straight to the topic?" ”
Hyowen felt that the short knife around his neck had disappeared, and the sense of crisis that had been surrounding him had also disappeared.
Xiaowen's eyes couldn't help but darken, and then he shook his neck, as if relaxing his somewhat stiff neck.
He looked at the "Wei girl" in front of him who didn't talk nonsense at all, and didn't want to talk to him more, and the interest in his eyes became even stronger.
"Miss Wei seems to be very anxious? However, when I came here tonight, I didn't want to leave in a hurry to say a few words to Miss Wei, but I wanted to talk with you all night and get to know you better.
By the way, let me introduce myself first, as the first step in our acquaintance, we don't even know the name, what is this? ”
"Not necessarily." Before Xiaowen could say what his name was, Sima Jingling interrupted him extremely coldly, "We don't have any relationship with each other, and we don't even have to meet in Pingshui, so we don't have to exchange names." Besides, I'm not interested in what your name is. ”
"Alas, Miss Wei is really cold." Xiaowen sighed in great disappointment, and after seeing the undisguised killing intent revealed in Sima Jingling's eyes, he finally gave up the idea that he must report his name.
He looked at the woman in front of him, whose expression was extremely cold, and most of her face was still covered by a light veil, but still could not hide her bright color, and whispered softly with pity:
"Alas, it seems that I want to reveal some of my own tricks to you on the face of such a rare beauty, which is really ......"
Sima Jingling didn't care at all about the sudden depressed mood of the person opposite, but his muttering was secretly remembered in her heart.
She just hung up the identity of "a little capable but not deeply involved in the world, and a certain one with many flaws is the eldest lady of the family", but after all, she has experienced many intrigues and tricks, and is used to seeing all kinds of winds and waves.
Not to mention, this was the first person with an absolute suspicion after she and Liu Ru laid a trap in advance.
She and Liu Ru had never communicated completely face-to-face when they were making plans, not to mention that after a series of links were laid, they would meet each other while waiting for the final result, which ruined the immediate results.
In the eyes of outsiders, there is really no relationship between her and Liu Ruyi, and at this time, she is at a disadvantage, in crisis, and urgently needs help from others.
At this time, because of Liu Ruyi's special identity and the obvious interests of the Yumen Inn, most people wanted to avoid Sima Jingling from afar, and even wished that they would never meet Sima Jingling, never meet each other.
In this way, they will not be involved with Sima Jingling at all, and they will not be secretly noted by Liu Ru, so they will enter the refusal list of the Yumen Inn.
What kind of person would risk offending Liu Ruyi to approach her?
The answer is obvious.
Or, it is the kind of person who likes to gamble and pursues excitement, who sees the unusual identity of her and wants to gamble with her; Either they don't care about Liu Ruyi's identity at all, or even stand on the opposite side of Liu Rushi from the beginning.
The former would not contact her in this way, and this sneaky but open way to meet her could only be the kind of person who had a purpose in the first place, wanting to unite her with something from Liu Rus.
And this kind of person is exactly the person she and Liu Ru are looking for.
So, although Sima Jingling had a trace of interest in her heart after listening to Xiaowen's meaningful muttering, she still gave up the idea of exploration that suddenly rose in her heart because of the integrity and first-come-first-served cooperation with others.
In her heart, she also sighed regretfully, but she could only continue to pretend to be cold and even a little impatient on her face, and said coldly to Xiaowen:
"What the hell are you looking for me, hurry up, don't do superfluous things. When I'm here at night, it's not superfluous. ”
Xiaowen looked at the obvious impatience revealed between Sima Jingling's eyebrows, raised her eyebrows, and the corners of her mouth finally pulled out a most happy and mocking arc,
Tsk, I finally couldn't help it, this is really exciting but disappointing.
