"I think I'd better return this bag to the man myself." Wei Jinluo said.

"Miss." Furong was a little anxious, although she was serving Wei Jinluo closely, but like the other maids in the courtyard, she came to Wei Jinluo's side on the orders of the Xu family and Wei Guogong. Wei Jinluo now rejected those matchmakers, and asked Huang Tao to report to the Xu family that she had a sweetheart, but who didn't want to say it. It made Mrs. very helpless. Although she is Wei Jinluo's personal maid, she also has the obligation to supervise Wei Jinluo. When Wei Jinluo said this, he was clearly taking risks and abandoning his reputation.

Miss, now that you are in the boudoir to be married, it is not allowed to see a foreign man in private. If Grandpa Guo and Mrs. Guo find out......" Furong said this and did not continue, because she saw Wei Jinluo's face full of displeasure.

"I have my own opinions." Wei Jinluo's voice was cold. Furong shuddered, not because of the cold wind, but because of Wei Jinluo's displeased face.

"Yes. Fleur got it. Fleur lowered her head, her heart full of grievances. Anyway, she is good for Wei Jinluo. Otherwise, she doesn't want to hit the wall.

The master and servant waited in the cold wind for a long time, thinking that today was another time when they had found nothing, when they suddenly saw a man walking towards them.

It was the man who lost the package at the White Dragon Temple that day.

Wei Jinluo's heart "thumped". The man was very handsome, with picturesque eyebrows and eyes, lips as rosy as rouge, and eyes as bright as stars. Although she looks as beautiful as a woman, she is not feminine at all.

The man was dressed in a snow-white embroidered moire brocade robe with a spotted tiger skin cloak on the outside. When he saw Wei Jinluo, he was very surprised.

"You are ......" The man saw the package Wei Jinluo was holding. It was discarded by himself that day.

Wei Jinluo saluted him, and Fleur stepped aside in recognition.

"A few days ago, I came to the White Dragon Temple to offer incense, and I happened to see this package. I thought who accidentally fell, so I waited here for the owner. I didn't expect it to make me wait. โ€

"This package is mine." The man heard Wei Jinluo's voice unhurriedly, and saw that Wei Jinluo was very beautiful, looking at this dress, she didn't look like an ordinary woman. And he is so good at picking up gold, I suddenly have a good feeling in my heart.

Wei Jinluo heard the man say this, so he smiled slightly, and handed the package he was holding to the man.

The man was a little embarrassed. That day, I was angry for a while, and I lost all the things in the package, and later remembered that there was a jade pendant after returning to the house. The rest is not important, this jade pendant can't be lost, so I rushed to find it today, but I didn't expect it to be really lost and recovered.

The man was very grateful to Wei Jinluo, and when he saw Wei Jinluo saluting him, he was about to leave, so he hurriedly said: "The girl is good at collecting gold, but she has done me a great favor." Dare to ask the girl's name? I'll come to thank you another day. โ€

Wei Jinluo was waiting for his words, she smiled at the man, and spit out her name: "Wei Jinluo." โ€

The man nodded, hugged his fist towards Wei Jinluo, and also reported his name: "In Xia Lin Jingming." โ€

Wei Jinluo's heart skipped a beat, King Lin Nan had three sons, namely Lin Huaiming, Lin Yuming, and Lin Haoming. This Lin Jingming, which son of King Lin Nan is this?

"Girl?" Lin Jing saw that Wei Jinluo suddenly stood still, her face was full of confusion, so she couldn't help but call her.

Wei Jinluo came back to his senses, smiled at Lin Jingming and nodded, and said, "It's not necessary to thank you, this is not my thing." I think that the things inside are very valuable, and I think they are important things, and the person who lost them must be very anxious, so I thought that they must be returned to the owner. You don't have to be so polite. โ€

"The girl doesn't have to be so modest." Lin Jingming has always had a good impression of people with noble conduct, and when he saw Wei Jinluo say this, he was even more grateful.

"It's been a while since I've been out, and now that I've returned my things, I'm relieved. Leave. Wei Jinluo smiled at Lin Jingming one last time, and turned to leave.

Lin Jingming stood in the snow, looking at Wei Jinluo's departing back, and didn't go for a long time.

It was night, Wei Ning was reading a medical book in the room.

After talking to Wei Lingfeng that day, they never spoke again. Wei Lingfeng still sleeps in the study all the time, and when they meet, the two of them deliberately avoid it.

The Yang family didn't feel sorry for her in this matter anymore, Wei Ning went to ask for peace every morning as usual, and lived as usual. Although in the eyes of outsiders, she, as a wife, was too cold to Wei Lingfeng, but Wei Ning felt that she was cold but calm, at least, she could do her own thing quietly.

Shu Jin had already changed several candles for Wei Ning, and seeing that Wei Ning was still looking at the medical book intently, he couldn't help but persuade: "Miss, you have been watching all night, it is late at night, it is time to rest." โ€

"Wait a minute, I still haven't finished reading it." Wei Ning didn't raise his head. The days in the house are very boring, she is different from other ladies, and she doesn't like to do some embroidery and writing or anything, studying medicine is her only hobby, and it is also a way for her to pass the time.

Shu Jin raised her hand and cut a candle flower, her young lady is really different from others, she doesn't fight or grab, she always likes to live her life like water. Shu Jin stood next to him for a long time, and saw that Wei Ning was still reading intently, worried that she would burn her eyes, so he persuaded Wei Ning to rest again.

Wei Ning couldn't stand Shu Jin grinding her on the side, so she could only put down the medical book. Shu Jin immediately instructed Yun Kai and Luye to bring washing water, waited for Wei Ning to change clothes and wipe his face, and served Wei Ning to bed.

The quilt had already been put in the cooked soup woman, and Wei Ning felt warm as soon as she entered, and soon fell asleep.

Shu Jin saw that Wei Ning was asleep, and he went out to keep vigil with confidence.

Wei Ning fell asleep in a daze, and suddenly felt a cold air rushing towards him. There was a very cold thing on his cheek.

"Who?" Sensing that there was someone in the room, Wei Ning instantly opened his eyes. Although the candles in the room were extinguished, silver charcoal was burning in the brazier, and through the faint sparks, Wei Ning saw a man dressed in black standing in front of her.

The man was holding a bright knife in his hand, but frighteningly, the knife was attached to his face.

"Who are you?" Wei Ning's left cheek was against the blade of the knife, she didn't dare to move when she lay down, and she didn't dare to scream, this person was so close to her, if she shouted out with one mouth, he could immediately kill herself.

The man just lowered his head and looked at her, and did not answer Wei Ning's question. Wei Ning's heart was beating fast, this place was his usual room, and at this time, how did this person come in?

The man held the knife in his right hand and moved slightly. Wei Ning's heart rose to his throat.

"What do you want to do?" Wei Ning suppressed the fear in her heart and tried to calm her voice as much as possible.

The man didn't answer as usual, but just looked at Wei Ning for a long time, as if he had made up his mind, he suddenly raised his hand holding the knife and stabbed Wei Ning-

Saying that it was too late, Wei Ning immediately stretched out his right hand from the quilt and caught the wrist that the man had stabbed down.

The man's wrist was numb, the strength in his arm was lost, and the knife immediately fell from his hand to the bed.

"Someone, there's an assassin!" Wei Ning instantly got up from the bed and grabbed the knife that fell on the bed. He gave the man a hard push.

The man was suddenly pushed by Wei Ning and fell to the ground. He heard Wei Ning's shout, and a trace of panic flashed in his eyes. But calm down right away. He came to the window, opened it and jumped out.

There was a commotion in the courtyard. Shu Jin had been keeping vigil outside the door, and when he heard Wei Ning's shout, he immediately rushed in: "Miss, what's wrong?" โ€

Wei Ning clutched the knife left behind by the assassin with one hand. In the other hand he held a few silver needles. At the last moment, she took advantage of the man's inattention, pulled out a few silver needles placed on the bed and pinched them in the palm of her hand, and then stabbed them into the assassin's wrist.

"A man in black just came in and wanted to stab me......," Wei Ning said. Shu Jin followed Wei Ning's gaze and looked at the window, and sure enough, the window was wide open, and the cold wind poured in from the outside.

"I don't think it's gone far." Wei Lingfeng's voice suddenly sounded, and Wei Ning saw Wei Lingfeng stepping into the room from the outside and coming to her.

Seeing Wei Ning's panicked look, Wei Lingfeng was a little distressed. He stepped forward and hugged Wei Ning, and said softly, "What's the matter, you're not hurt, are you?" โ€

In front of Shu Jin, Wei Ning was a little embarrassed. Many people soon came outside the room, and Wei Ning said to Wei Lingfeng, "He shouldn't have gone far yet." โ€

"I've already asked Qi to take someone to chase after me." Wei Lingfeng said as he stroked Wei Ning's hair, "I'm going to accompany you here, and I can't leave a single step." โ€

"Feng'er, what's going on?" Yang's voice sounded outside the door. I didn't expect it to cause such a big commotion, and the people in the entire mansion were alarmed.

Wei Guogong was also outside, Wei Lingfeng heard the voice of his parents, walked out from inside, and said lightly: "There is an assassin, it seems that he wants to assassinate Ning'er." โ€

Before Wei Ning didn't have a conflict with himself, Wei Lingfeng rested in this room with Wei Ning. Wei Ning was just a lady in the house, and she was usually not sociable, so she had no reason to make enemies with others, so Wei Lingfeng couldn't tell whether this assassin was coming at him or Wei Ning.

"Oh my God." Yang covered his chest, as if he was very surprised that the always quiet back house would actually have an assassin. Wei Guogong frowned beside him and said to Wei Lingfeng, "Ning Er is not injured, is she?" โ€

"She wasn't hurt. I was just a little frightened. After Wei Lingfeng finished speaking, he saw that Qi had come back with a few people, so he immediately asked, "Where are the people?" โ€

"I escaped." Qi was a little dejected, he knelt down on one knee in front of Wei Lingfeng: "That person has done a lot of effort, and we are not his opponents." โ€

"Do you see which way you are fleeing?" Wei Lingfeng asked.

Qi shook his head, the Weiguo Mansion was in the center of Jingzhou City, there were many mansions outside, and it was snowing now, and the person had disappeared after a few jumps, and he didn't even leave footprints.
