Yang Ruoning, Chapter 18
In the past month, the streets and alleys have been discussing the gossip that the son of Jiang Wanfu, the commander of the Beijing Praetorian Guard, was haunted by ghosts. The Jiang family invited all the gods in the sky and the earth, but they couldn't drive away the "ghosts" that haunted Jiang Dagongzi.
On the bright side, everyone said that it was the Jiang Mansion that was too yin, which made the evil ghost entangle the eldest prince. But in private, everyone said that this was probably because Master Jiang had too many unjust souls and suffered retribution. Yang Ruoning heard their whispers, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but bend upward, but Luo Yuan glanced at her meaningfully.
On the way home, Luo Yuan said, starting tomorrow, don't go out at night, stay in my study, you still owe a lot of notes these days.
Ahhh Speaking of those copybooks, she felt that it was really difficult. She didn't even know a lot of simplified characters, let alone those traditional characters with complex strokes. She felt that it was not a word at all, but a small painting with a different style. She felt like she would rather study rocket science than practice drawing those little pictures.
And she doesn't know how to use a brush, and what she often writes is a blurred black lump, and it is difficult to discern what words are written. For this reason, Luo Yuan taught her hand-in-hand.
The only reason why she insisted on learning to write every day was that she could be surrounded by Luo Yuan in her arms, let his big rough hands hold her hand, and then slowly lead her to write on the paper stroke by stroke.
She loved the faint scent of him, the long eyelashes and the reflection of herself in his eyes.
Yang Ruoning took a deep breath, as if she had made a lot of determination, "Post, I'll write it when I go back in the evening." However, a night lockdown is absolutely not a no-no. ”
"If you condense, it's better to stop in moderation," he said.
Yang Ruoning looked at him suspiciously. He had something to say, and he seemed to know what Yang Ruoning was doing.
"When he hit someone, he didn't think about it," Yang Ruoning said.
He stopped, approached her, and raised his hand to brush the leaves that had fallen from her hair. "Give me a little more time, and I will avenge your revenge."
"No, don't," Yang Ruoning refused. Revenge, she thought? She didn't want revenge at all, what she wanted was that guy would tremble when he heard the word "woman" from now on.
A few days later, after eating at noon, Uncle Zhong sent an invitation. Luo Yuan opened it and looked at it, raised his head and said to Yang Ruoning that the Jiang Mansion was going to hold a banquet in three days, and this invitation was to invite him to the banquet.
Yang Ruoning's eyes lit up. Recently, Jiang Yuan has rarely been out of the house, and she can't see the bastard. And it is rumored that the Jiang family seems to have noticed that the sedan chair was unusual, and had already let the mage practice burn it.
No wonder they want to hold a banquet, hmph, Yang Ruoning thought, it turned out to be getting rid of the 'ghost sound'.
"Are you going?" Yang Ruoning asked.
"Do you want me to go?" Luo Yuan put aside the invitation in his hand, looked at her and asked.
"Well, I think...... Since someone invited you, you're going to go. Yang Ruoning said.
"Okay, then let's go," Luo Yuan said, "but since I'm bringing you there, at least let me know what you're going to do." ”
Yang Ruoning was stunned for a moment, she thought, Luo Yuan also made sense, in case her plan failed and was caught, how could she say that she was also brought by Luo Yuan, let me know in advance, so as not to make it difficult for him to do it.
So Yang Ruoning told him the general plan. Of course, she said that she just wanted to pretend to scare the bastard while Jiang Yuan was sleeping, and she didn't say much about how to do it.
Luo Yuan listened, just nodded, and didn't say anything else. Probably he thought that Yang Ruoning's behavior was just nonsense.
So, in the evening three days later, Yang Ruoning followed Luo Yuan to the banquet in Jiang's mansion. Naturally, Luo Yuan was invited to the host's table by Master Jiang as a guest.
Jiang Yuan's bastard, Yang Ruoning thought that he was haunted by the "ghost voice" for more than a month, what would happen. I thought that the girl was so red-faced, and there was any rumored haggard appearance.
When the banquet was about to disperse, Yang Ruoning found Luo Yuan and told him that he could go back to the house first without waiting for her.
Unexpectedly, Luo Yuan pointed out the location of Jiang Yuan's bedroom to her, and told her that she could slip through the small door in the northeast corner of the backyard afterwards.
Yang Ruoning thought, good guy, he was more careful than me, and even told me the route of retreat.
Yang Ruoning lay at the bottom of Jiang Yuan's bed, and waited for a while before hearing Jiang Yuan drunkenly being carried back to the room, and then heard his earth-shattering snoring. She waited until the goods woke up at one o'clock in the middle of the night, clamoring for the little maid outside the house to pour water for him, and asked the fourth aunt to come and sleep with the bed, and when Jiang Yuan was the only one left in the room, Yang Ruoning waited for her time.
When she projected the pre-prepared short film of the female ghost on the white wall opposite under the bed, Jiang Yuan above her head was silent, and the room was surprisingly quiet, only the eerie music and the laughter of the female ghost were left, presumably Jiang Yuan was already stupid at this time. At this time, in the projection on the wall, the female ghost screamed violently, and her long messy hair hung down as if she was about to climb out of the wall. Yang Ruoning couldn't help but smile at the bottom of the bed, waiting for the expected scene. But it backfired, and she suddenly found that water was dripping from the bed. At first, she wondered where the water came from, but suddenly she realized what it was. I went, and the guy was scared to pee. Yang Ruoning was instantly disgusted, and she immediately crawled out from under the bed.
When Yang Ruoning was wearing a white dress and slowly came out from under the bed with her cloak scattered, she saw that the light in Jiang Yuan's pupils had dissipated. She looked at the bastard and thought of the ferocity on his face when he beat Su Su that day, and she wanted to kill her immediately. But she resisted this impulse, she pinched and exploded the red dye in her hand, and pointed at Jiang Yuan, who was as stunned as a wooden chicken, with her fingers dripping with fake blood. She deliberately paused for a few seconds to create an even more eerie atmosphere. She then slowly approached him and wrote "DIE" in blood on his crotch.
She wanted to say something more to warn Jiang Yuan that if she bullied others again, the female ghost would crawl out from under the bed, but that bastard of chick guts had already fainted, and Yang Ruoning could only do it.
Everything went so smoothly. Yang Ruoning escaped from the back door according to the route Luo Yuan pointed out, and she wanted to scream with excitement all the way. But as soon as she stepped out of the door, before she could shout happily, she was pulled aside.
Yang Ruoning was startled, and before she could move, her entire body was tightly pressed and hidden in the darkness at the base of the wall. The man was dressed in a tight black nightwalker with a mask and only a pair of lacquered eyes. The man covered Yang Ruoning's exclamation with one hand, put his index finger to his mouth with one hand, and made a shushing motion.
There is a faint soothing aroma on him.
It's Luo Yuan.
In the next second, a team of Jiang Fu family members chased out of the door. Yang Ruoning quietly stuck to Luo Yuan's body, she looked at him and felt very grateful. It turned out that he had been waiting for her here.
When the footsteps were far away, Luo Yuan slowly let go of the hand covering her mouth. For a moment, they looked at each other silently. Yang Ruoning felt that something in her heart had quietly changed at the moment. But she wasn't sure if it would be a good thing or a misfortune for her.
Realizing the somewhat awkward posture, Yang Ruoning lowered her head to avoid his burning gaze. She reminded him softly that the men were far away.
"Not yet," he said.
"Huh? I can't hear the footsteps anymore," she asked.
"Not yet, we'll have to wait a little longer."
"Oh," Yang Ruoning replied, she felt that at such a close distance, Luo Yuan must have felt the sound of her already speeding heartbeat.
"Why is my heart beating so fast?" Sure enough, Luo Yuan asked.
"That's ...... It's because I've been running too fast......" she said with her head down.
He laughed softly, "Ruo Ning......"
As if he had a premonition that he was going to say something, Yang Ruoning suddenly raised his head and interrupted him, "I think that guy was scared by me, and he shouldn't be doing anything for a long time." Luo Yuan, thank you for helping me.
