“Just call me Wan Yue,” Shen Yaowei said calmly.
“Alright, Miss Wan Yue. Since we entered here by accident, if we want to leave this place, we have to kill Ye Ying’er first.” As Yao Qingyi spoke, she took out a whistle from her sleeve and handed it to Shen Yaowei. “In order to escape the bamboo forest that surrounded me just now, I’ve exhausted all my strength. Miss Shen, please help me blow this whistle so that my master can receive our position.”
Shen Yaowei glanced at the whistle made of white jade. She had just reached out to take it when hurried footsteps came from outside the door.
Yao Qingyi heard the footsteps and her expression changed.
Shen Yaowei pointed at the closet not far away. Yao Qingyi immediately understood and quickly hid in the closet.
Seeing that Yao Qingyi had closed the cabinet door, Shen Yaowei stuffed the whistle into her arms and turned to look at the door.
Bang!
The door was kicked open from the outside.
Wan Yulang stood outside the room with a dark expression. The gray-robed man behind him was the one Shen Yaowei had seen last night.
“Wan Yue, where’s your lady?” Wan Yulang slowly walked into the room and looked around before asking Shen Yaowei.
Shen Yaowei wanted to cover for Ye Ying’er, but she couldn’t help but say,
“Miss took Mr. Dong out with her!”
“Master, you should believe me now! I really saw Ye Ying’er leave the backyard with Dong Li just now!” The gray-robed man went forward and said to Wan Yulang, “It’s not too late to chase after them now.”
Wan Yulang waved at the gray-robed man. “Hurry up and chase them back!”
A triumphant smile appeared on the gray-robed man’s face as he hurriedly went to do it.
Wan Yulang sat on the chair with no intention of leaving.
Shen Yaowei stood there with her head lowered.
After some time, Wan Yulang suddenly said, “Wan Yue, when did your lady hang out with Dong Li?”
Shen Yaowei didn’t know how to answer this question at all, but her mouth opened uncontrollably and she said, “About a year and a half.”
With that, she covered her mouth with her hand.
It seemed that the servant girl called Wan Yue had betrayed her master.
Wan Yulang sneered and said, “A year and a half. It seems that the b.a.s.t.a.r.d child in her stomach who didn’t survive is Dong Li’s, right? It’s really difficult for her. She just had a miscarriage and still wants to go out with that cheap slave on such a cold day.”
Only then did Shen Yaowei understand why Ye Ying’er looked so haggard. She had just lost her child.
At this moment, Wan Yulang’s nose suddenly twitched.
Right on the heels of that, his expression turned cold.
“Is there anyone else in this room?”
Unexpectedly, Wan Yulang’s nose was even sharper than a dog’s. This time, Shen Yaowei could speak on her own. “No.”
“Really?” Wan Yulang looked incredulous. He stood up and walked towards the closet not far away. “Why do 1 smell a stranger?”
Shen Yaowei could clearly feel the unconcealed excitement in Wan Yulang’s tone when he mentioned strangers.
Seeing Wan Yulang approach the closet step by step, Shen Yaowei quietly picked up the porcelain bottle on the table.
Just as she was about to walk towards Wan Yulang, the gray-robed man’s voice sounded from outside the door again.
“Master, I brought her back for you!”
