Chapter 156 Never Bow to Anyone Again
Chapter 156 Never Bow to Anyone Again
After Ling Mohui finished speaking, she walked back to her courtyard with resolute steps and ordered her servants to close the gate tightly. Even the cats and dogs that usually roamed freely were not allowed to enter.
In this way, no one can disturb her peace!
The night was as dark as ink, and the cool breeze blew through the tiny gaps in the window, bringing a bit of chill.
After finishing her bath, Ling Mohui felt a chill on her body. Just as she was about to go forward to close the window, she heard a rustling sound and a petite head suddenly poked in from the window, scaring her so much that she almost screamed.
"Chun Tang! Is that you?"
Ling Mo took a closer look and immediately recognized this clever little girl.
Chuntang looked anxious, and said in a low and hurried voice: "Miss, I have something urgent to talk to you about!"
Seeing this, Ling Mohui immediately became alert. While quickly pulling her into the door, she scolded her in a low voice: "Do you know how dangerous it is to sneak in like this? Don't do it again next time!"
Her eyes were stern yet gentle, and as she looked at Chuntang's round and lovely face, her heart was full of pity.
"Okay, what's going on?"
Ling Mohui urged.
Chun Tang's face was suddenly filled with worry: "Young Master, Sister Fenchan has been imprisoned for several days. The prison is heavily guarded. Can you think of a way to save her?"
"Save her? I can't do anything. You should find another way."
Ling Mohui didn't want to get involved in the disputes of Xuanfeng Sect to avoid getting into trouble.
Hearing this, Chuntang's eyes turned red and he began to sob.
"Oh, don't cry, someone will hear you!"
Ling Mohui quickly covered her mouth, but it was too late.
"Who is there?"
Fu Yansheng's voice came with a hint of caution.
Ling Mo came back and without thinking too much, she hurriedly hid Chuntang in the closet.
The door was suddenly pushed open and Fu Yansheng walked in quickly.
"Fu Yansheng, how can you just barge into my room?"
Ling Mohui asked unhappily.
Fu Yansheng's eyes flickered as he examined her: "Ling Mohui, are you hiding something from me? Do you have a child hidden at home?"
Faced with this sudden question, Ling Mo was speechless for a moment.
"What do you mean by that look?"
Ling Mo replied with a hint of sarcasm, "Fu Yansheng, I am really impressed by your imagination. Are you in the late stage of paranoia?"
"Really do not have?"
Fu Yansheng obviously didn't believe his ears.
"Look for yourself, where are the children?"
Ling Mo rolled her eyes and thought of a plan, "Was there a cat meowing just now? It was that wild cat. I fed it something and it left."
Fu Yansheng left the room half-believing and half-doubting.
Ling Mohui immediately pulled Chuntang out of the closet and gestured to her to keep quiet: "If you are discovered, you will be imprisoned with Sister Fenchan. Behave yourself, or I can't protect you!"
There seemed to be stars twinkling in the little girl's eyes, and a resolute light danced in the depths of her pupils. She nodded heavily, with unquestionable strength in that action: "Chun Tang remembers, and will never forget the determination of this moment!"
"Young Master, please, you are Sister Fenchan's only chance. She is always so gentle and kind to others. Please save her!"
The little girl held Ling Mohui's hand tightly, her eyes filled with tears, and her body trembled slightly as she begged.
Ling Mo looked back at the little girl's pleading look. Although she felt a little helpless, she was more moved by her persistence. She could only sigh and respond, "Okay, tell me, what can I do to help you?"
If Chuntang had not been in desperate situation, she would never have asked for help so easily. Fenchan had helped her before, and now was the time to repay her.
"Young Master, as long as you can temporarily hold back the extremely shrewd Prime Minister Fu, even for just a quarter of an hour, we brothers can take the opportunity to act. You know, with him around, our plan is almost certain to fail."
The little girl's voice was low and firm, revealing the difficulty and danger of the mission.
"Okay, I promise you, but when exactly are you going to act?"
Ling Mo asked back.
"The night after tomorrow, when the moon is darkest, will be the best time to act."
A cunning gleam flashed in Chuntang's eyes.
"Okay, go get ready, and be safe!"
Ling Mo urged.
"Yes, young master, if we can return safely, we will be rewarded generously."
The little girl promised.
"You don't need to repay me generously. As long as you are safe, it will be the greatest comfort to me. Don't take risks again in the future, which will be the best way to thank me."
Ling Mohui said as she gently pushed Chuntang out the window, her eyes full of concern, "Remember, return the same way you came, don't be careless."
That window became a bridge for their secret communication. May it also bless the little girl to return safely.
Watching Chuntang's figure disappear into the night, the tense string in Ling Mohui's heart finally relaxed a little.
That night, the moonlight was bright. Ling Mohui lay on the bed, but her mind was surging like the tide. She tossed and turned until dawn.
Early the next morning, I wanted to go to Yayuan to find a moment of peace, but unexpectedly I met Fu Yansheng who was reading in the morning.
The sunlight shone on him through the leaves, his blue shirt fluttering in the wind. He held a book in his hand, with a scholarly air between his brows, and the gentleness and elegance revealed in his demeanor made people feel like a spring breeze.
"Fu Yansheng!"
Ling Mohui's call made Fu Yansheng stunned at first, then his brows relaxed and a hint of amusement flashed in his eyes.
"I told you to reflect on yourself, but you're just wandering around outside again."
Fu Yansheng pretended to be blaming, but there was a hint of indulgence in his tone.
Ling Mohui frowned upon hearing this and retorted unconvincedly: "What have I done wrong? Why should I reflect on myself?"
Fu Yansheng chuckled, with helplessness in his eyes, and pulled Ling Mo back to sit on his lap.
"What are you doing?"
Ling Mohui frowned and stared at him sharply.
"Ling Mohui, as long as you are willing to sit down and have a calm chat with me, I will immediately lift your house arrest, and I will forgive you for going out without permission this time. How do you think?"
Fu Yansheng's proposal was a little joking, but seemed extremely sincere.
Ling Mohui struggled hard to break free from the restraints, but found that she could not resist his strength.
"Dream on! In this life, I, Ling Mohui, will only respect the heaven and earth, and I will never bow my head to anyone again!" Ling Mohui spoke with pride and determination in every word.
"Ling Mo, come back!"
Fu Yansheng was about to speak when Ling Mohui seemed to suddenly remember something and her attitude suddenly changed.
"Fu Yansheng! I heard that you happen to be free tomorrow?"
Ling Mo changed the topic and asked a seemingly irrelevant question. Fu Yansheng couldn't help but stand there in a daze, full of doubts.
"what happened?"
Fu Yansheng asked.
Ling Mohui imitated Ling Zhiyun's usual cuteness and gently took his arm, with a faint smile on her lips: "I observed the stars last night and found that the weather will be pleasant in the next two days. How about we go on an autumn outing together?"
Fu Yansheng saw that Ling Mohui was as stubborn as a wild horse a moment ago, but now as docile as a sheep, and he couldn't help but feel a strange emotion in his heart.
"Autumn outing? Just the two of us?"
