Chapter 17: The Man in Black

Falling steadily on the back mountain, Mu Wan'er broke free from the shackles of the man in black and subconsciously took several steps back.

The terrain here is higher, and you can see the Shi family brightly lit and people coming and going, Mu Wan'er is a little annoyed.

She thought she had a good plan, but she didn't expect to be discovered in the end, and when she frowned and sighed, the afterglow fell on the man in black.

She suddenly became alert, wondering where the man in black came from and why the man in black was helping her.

Nothing to be courteous, the truth of either treachery or theft, Mu Wan'er has already experienced it.

But in the end, I helped myself, and there is no point in asking these questions at this time.

"Thank you for the rescue today." After saying that, Mu Wan'er turned around decisively and prepared to leave.

"The second miss of the Mu family, Mu Wan'er, the sword dance at the palace banquet is amazing, and it can't make the princes and nobles worry about it." The man in black spoke slowly, and his clear voice overflowed.

Mu Wan'er's eyes suddenly turned cold, she squinted at the man in black, and her hand was already silently gripping the hilt of the dagger pinned to her waist.

Her every move was in the eyes of the man in black, and when Mu Wan'er was about to kill someone, the man in black quickly took off the mask on his face.

"It's me."

Gazing at it, it was actually Xie Yu!

Mu Wan'er looked at Xie Yu in surprise, she didn't speak for a while, Xie Yu touched the tip of her nose and was slightly embarrassed.

"I didn't mean not to tell you, I just wanted to see how you reacted." Xie Yu explained.

Mu Wan'er's lips moved, and just wanted to ask why Xie Yu appeared here, when she saw the light not far away getting closer and closer, and it was the Shi family's family who chased after her.

"If you know each other, leave things behind! Otherwise, we'll make you look good! The housekeeper yelled.

Mu Wan'er and Xie Yu glanced at each other, turned around and ran away quite tacitly, and soon saw Haifeng and the others who had been waiting here for a long time.

Haifeng was wearing clothes that were almost the same as Mu Wan'er, didn't ask anything, took the burden directly from Mu Wan'er's hands, and left with his little brother, while Mu Wan'er and Xie Yu also hid in the grass next to them.

The family members didn't notice that the people had changed, and they quickly went to chase Haifeng and the others, while Mu Wan'er and Xie Yu sneaked back to the Shi family secretly.

The Shi family lost their treasures and was already in a mess, Shi Kang followed the family to chase Mu Wan'er and them, and now Mu Wan'er and Xie Yu came to the treasury, and they didn't meet anyone at all.

"Are you still trying to steal?" Xie Yujian raised his eyebrows, not quite agreeing with Mu Wan'er's approach.

Mu Wan'er raised her chin and raised her eyebrows at Xie Yu, and said after thinking for a while, "I don't know if Your Highness still remembers, when you were seriously injured, who was taking care of you?" ”

Xie Yu didn't speak dumbly, and looked at Mu Wan'er for a moment, wanting to see what Mu Wan'er would say.

Mu Wan'er didn't want to wait for Xie Yu's answer, and said to herself: "I took you in and took care of you, this should also be regarded as a life-saving grace, it's good not to let you spring in return, and now I want you to move things with me." ”

Xie Yu wanted to refuse, but Mu Wan'er waved her hand as if she knew what Xie Yu would say, "You can't refuse, of course, if you don't want to do this kind of thing, then stand next to you and don't speak, don't get in the way of me." ”

For Mu Wan'er's domineering, Xie Yu couldn't cry or laugh, he couldn't dissuade him, he could only helplessly conniv, seeing that Mu Wan'er was struggling to move, he abandoned what Fang Cai said and took the initiative to help.

When leaving, Mu Wan'er left the letter that had been prepared a long time ago, and Xie Yu quietly returned to the temple, and saw Haifeng and others waiting at the side door.

Mu Wan'er took out the silver and threw it to Haifeng, "Thank you tonight, you can take these to reward the younger brothers." ”

Haifeng looked at Xie Yu with an unfriendly gaze, and was a little stunned, and he didn't dare to determine Xie Yu's identity for a while, so he could only take the money and leave in a hurry.

Back at the temple, Mu Wan'er straightened out the stolen things, and her eyes fell on Xie Yu next to her, Xie Yu had no reason to feel weak for a while, avoiding Mu Wan'er's gaze.

Mu Wan'er slowly walked in front of Xie Yu, Xie Yu subconsciously took two steps back, and coughed lightly against her lips, "You, what's wrong with you?" Why are you looking at me like that? ”

"The situation was urgent just now, I didn't have time to ask Your Highness, why did you appear there, should Your Highness explain it now?" Mu Wan'er looked at Xie Yu with her arms crossed and asked.

Xie Yu avoided Mu Wan'er's gaze and began to pretend to be stupid, "I just went out for a walk, how did I hear the sound of fighting, so I ......"

"Does Your Highness think what you say is credible? If I tell you that, will you believe it? Mu Wan'er asked with a straight face.

Xie Yu was dumbfounded, embarrassed and politely smiled, and as soon as she raised her head, she met Mu Wan'er's cold eyes, knowing that if she didn't give Mu Wan'er a reasonable explanation, she was afraid that she would not let herself go.

Mu Wan'er saw that Xie Yu didn't speak for a long time, thinking that Xie Yu still wanted to find some reason to prevaricate herself, so she cut off all Xie Yu's retreats with a cold face.

"How did you show up just right to save me from danger? How could he be dressed up in black? Do you want to figure out how to answer these questions to me? Mu Wan'er asked.

Xie Yu pursed his lips and looked down at the ground after a while, "Okay, I'm not going out for a walk." ”

"In that case, Your Highness, tell me why you are following me."

"Recently, I can see what the girl is planning, I also bumped into the matter of you going to look for Haifeng during the day, and I also heard the girl ask about the situation of the Shi family, and after a little thought, I understand what the girl wants to do."

"I don't comment on whether you did it right or not, but I know it's dangerous for you to do so, and I have to follow you to ensure your safety." The more Xie Yu spoke, the more weak his heart became, and his voice became lower and lower.

Mu Wan'er stared at Xie Yu for a long time, recalling the scene of the fight between Xie Yu and the Shi family.

After thinking for a while, Mu Wan'er said: "In this way, His Highness's injuries should be healed, then there is no reason to continue to be in the temple, Your Highness go back and pack up and prepare to leave." ”

"Just now to save the girl, I pulled the wound on my arm, don't believe me." As he spoke, Xie Yu handed his arm to Mu Wan'er in a matter-of-fact manner.

Looking down, the bandage on Xie Yu's arm was indeed stained with blood, and it was indeed Xie Yu who came to the rescue just now, so it didn't fall into Shi Kang's hands.

Anyway, Mu Wan'er had to pinch her nose to admit this matter, even if she knew that the injury on Xie Yu's arm was no longer a problem, but she couldn't bear Xie Yu's shamelessness and wanted to stay.

Mu Wan'er glared at Xie Yu and said reluctantly, "This is the temple, if Your Highness wants to stay, stay." ”

Xie Yu was very happy as long as he could stay, nodding his head and agreeing, when Mu Wan'er returned to her room, she began to have doubts, she clearly remembered that Xie Yu was a cold and arrogant person, why did she suddenly become such a scoundrel?

Could it be that her rebirth changed all that?
