Chapter 260 Release from Prison
Chapter 260 Release from Prison
Since she likes to investigate, let her investigate to her heart's content. He wants to see what kind of interesting expression Ye Mu will have when he finds out that he has misunderstood him.
The more Jiang Che thought about it, the happier he felt. He glanced out the window, and when he saw Ye Mu still standing there motionless, he sneered and was about to walk away, but out of the corner of his eye he saw her tremble barely noticeably in the falling snow.
Jiang Che frowned, pushed the door open and walked out quickly.
"Hey, you're still here? Aren't you on patrol? Why don't you have to patrol other places?"
Jiang Che raised his eyebrows slightly: "I will tell Sixth Brother to punish you for your negligence."
Ye Mu didn't say anything, his eyes fell on his slightly bulging sleeves, and he asked sharply: "What is this?"
"Why should I tell you?" Jiang Che suddenly felt guilty and covered his face with his other hand.
Ye Mu became even more suspicious and flew forward without hesitation to grab it.
Jiang Che had already prepared for this, and he immediately blocked with his covering hand, but based on the principle of not attacking women, he only defended and did not take the initiative to attack, and soon fell into a disadvantage.
Just as the two were struggling, Jiang Che caught a glimpse of something out of the corner of his eye, quickly reached out and grabbed Ye Mu's arms, then quickly stepped back.
He shook the thing in his hand and said jokingly, "I never thought that our Ye Mu secret guard would carry such a girly thing with him."
Amid the falling snow, a jade hairpin in Jiang Che's shaking hand drew a streak of green light in the air.
Ye Mu's expression suddenly changed, his voice trembling: "Give it back to me!"
She didn't bother to maintain her usual calmness and reached out to grab it, but Jiang Che was much taller than her and she raised her arm deliberately, so she failed after several attempts.
If the man in front of her was not her master's brother and she could not hurt him, she would have wanted to punch him in the stomach and make him kneel on the ground with his hands holding the jade hairpin to return it.
"Okay, I'll give it back to you," Jiang Che rolled his eyes and said, "Ouch," "I sprained my foot, come and help me up."
Ye Mu stood there, not moving at all.
"Come here quickly and help me." Jiang Che urged dissatisfiedly.
"I only obey the orders of my master. Please don't make things difficult for me, Your Highness Prince Rong." Ye Mu's voice was cold, and he almost rolled his eyes at him.
Jiang Che shook the hairpin in his hand and threatened: "If you don't come to help me, I will break this hairpin!"
"You dare!" Ye Mu blurted out subconsciously, then realized that it was inappropriate to say this given his identity. His face turned pale and he pursed his lips.
Jiang Che's lips curled up, having seen the importance of this hairpin to Ye Mu, and his mood couldn't help but become a little happier: "Then come over."
Ye Mu's eyes flickered and he hesitated for a moment.
But his steps never moved.
She stood there, constantly thinking in her mind how to take back the jade hairpin, the only relic left to her by her mother, without hurting anyone or causing any impact on her master.
"Okay, since you don't want to, I will keep this jade hairpin for you temporarily."
Jiang Che waited for a long time but Ye Mu didn't come to help him. He was afraid that his butt would get frostbite, so he stood up and brushed the snow off his body. Just as he was about to leave, he suddenly stopped.
He turned around and spread out his other hand hidden in his sleeve: "I forgot to tell you that you misunderstood me this time. I didn't take anything. I just put my hand in my sleeve to keep warm because it was cold. I was disrespectful to the prince. You have to think carefully about how to explain this crime."
Jiang Che looked at Ye Mu's gradually gloomy expression, and his mood improved, and his steps became more cheerful.
Ye Mu was left standing there, watching his departing back silently, gritting his teeth and clenching his fists.
……
At that time, in the wind and snow, a carriage drove slowly past, leaving ruts along the way, and finally stopped at the gate of the Shangshu Mansion.
A woman wearing a plain white cloak, with a thin face and a sallow complexion walked out. The guard at the door changed his face when he saw her, and hurriedly ran into the mansion to report: "Go and inform the master, the lady, the lady is back!"
Wang coughed a few times haggardly, reached out to hold her cloak tightly around her body, and staggered inside.
He ran into Lin Cheng who was rushing over, and asked, "Why are you back? Shouldn't you be in the prison? Why, why did you come back so suddenly?"
"Why, do you really want me to die in there?" Wang looked at him sinisterly, feeling sarcastic in her heart.
Looking at Lin Cheng's radiant appearance, one can tell that during the time she was away, he and He were living a happy and fulfilling life.
Wang gritted her teeth, wishing she could slap Lin Cheng hard a few times right now.
She had fallen into this situation today and suffered so much in prison, all thanks to Lin Cheng.
But how did this unfaithful man treat her?
After he was imprisoned, he did not take any action at all, not even to go and take a look at her or bring her some food, let alone rescue her.
Her nails dug deep into her palms and Wang was trembling.
Now she had to be patient and endure all this for the time being. After she fulfilled her agreement with that man, she would deal with this couple of dogs.
Lin Cheng looked at her and said, "What are you talking about? I'm just curious about how your ten-year sentence suddenly ended and you can be released."
Wang pulled the corner of her mouth and didn't even look at him: "I used silver to bribe you. Don't ask me about this anymore. I'm very tired. I'm going back to my room to rest first."
After saying that, she walked in on her own, but ran into He who was about to go out with Lin Chengyu.
He saw Wang's surprised expression and said, "Why are you..."
As if she realized something, she immediately changed the topic: "Why is my sister back?"
Seeing Wang's face was livid, although she was suspicious, she still glanced at the nanny beside her and said, "Don't you see that my sister is very thin? Why don't you tell the kitchen to prepare more delicious food so that my sister can have a good rest."
"Yes, I'll go right away." The nanny responded and ran away as if escaping, fearing that she would become the punching bag of these two women if she was not careful.
Wang laughed sarcastically and said, "During my absence, have you been managing the Shangshu Mansion smoothly?"
"It was indeed a bit difficult at the beginning, but now I can handle it with ease," He smiled slightly, with a proud look in her eyes, "Sister has just returned, so you should take good care of yourself. As for the housekeeping matters, I will take over for you."
"Ha!" Wang sneered and walked away without even looking at her.
The time she spent in prison helped her understand a lot of things.
Some things need to be eradicated forever.
If she had gotten rid of that little bitch Yun Shuning from the very beginning, she wouldn't have ended up like this. As for this He family.
A dark light flashed in Wang's eyes.
Once she finishes what she should do, there will be plenty of time to deal with her.
She walked quickly back to the villa, took out a piece of paper and pen, wrote a letter and asked someone to send it out.
The next day, a figure sneaked in through the back door of the Shangshu Mansion and went straight to Wang's villa.
Wang had also been waiting at the door long ago. When she saw him appear, she immediately pulled him into the house and asked, "Did anyone see you when you came in?"
"Don't worry, aunt. No one saw me. I climbed over the wall and came in avoiding people." Chen Shi looked around with his eyes rolling around, with a wretched and thief-like look on his face.
Wang looked at him with dissatisfaction: "This is the Shangshu Mansion, put away all your little tricks. If I find out that you stole something, I will not forgive you."
"I see, auntie, who do you think I am? Even if I want to steal, I won't steal my own things," Chen Shi said with a smile, not blushing or beating his heart. "Auntie, is what you said in the letter true?"
