"That's strange. Xiaoran has always lived in seclusion and rarely goes out. He would never make any enemies. Who would come to take him away?"

Yan Qiu thought for a moment and took out a thick letter from his bag. The letter paper roughly talked about some important relatives and friends in Yuecheng.

The Chu Xiaoran mentioned above is only the legitimate son of the Chu family, and his father’s name has not been found out yet.

There is only a lonely grave, buried in the peach blossom forest.

"Are you going to dig a grave?"

"Hey, I don't dare to do such a thing that hurts the world. I just said that you can check the background of your husband's father first."

"After all, if it was a mutual marriage, we should be able to find out where his father's mother's family is from. Then we can guess who took Xiaoran away."

At night, Nan Jinming rested in the room, and the dew was heavy.

Yan Qiu has been fooling around somewhere and hasn't returned home yet.

Nan Jinming sat on the windowsill, looking at the round moon in silence.

I don’t know where Xiaoran is now, whether he has food to eat, or whether he has a place to live.

It's all my fault that I didn't protect him well, causing him to suffer so much injustice.

Seeing shadows moving among the branches and hearing some rustling sounds, Nan Jinming immediately became alert.

I saw a white figure coming to the door. Nan Jinming hid behind the door and listened to the man's movements.

The next second, the door was pushed open and a foot stepped in.

"boom!"

Nan Jinming was quick-witted and quick-handed. He grabbed the person's neck and pressed her against the wall.

"It's you!"

The lights in Nan Jinming's room were on brightly, and he could see the person in front of him at a glance.

"Miss Murong, how are you?"

Bai Ran smiled evilly. He had no intention of pretending in the first place. He got the news today and heard that she had arrived, so he just came directly.

"How come Miss Bai has time to come to my place?"

Nan Jinming released the hand that was holding her neck, knowing that this man was not someone to be trifled with. The person who could stay by Nangong Jingcheng's side was not someone to be trifled with.

"Ms. Murong, no, should I call you Miss Nan now?"

Bai Ran was sarcastic. Her jealousy towards Nan Jinming exceeded her admiration for Nangong Jingcheng.

She hated why this woman didn't really die, why she was still alive, and why she made Nangong Jingcheng worry about her.

"It will be all right."

Nan Jinming came to the table and poured herself a cup of herbal tea. Even though it was autumn, she felt that drinking herbal tea would make her feel better, especially when meeting a junior like Bai Ran.

In her previous life, Nangong Jingcheng also married into the imperial palace and eventually became the Phoenix Lord.

When I returned to the capital, I saw him sitting on the phoenix chair, looking down at me with endless pain in his eyes.

"You have no ability yourself, what's the point of making trouble in front of me now?"

Bai Ran looked at Nan Jinming in front of him, unable to guess what she was thinking. It seemed as if he knew but also as if he didn't know.

"Ms. Murong, my master was forced to enter the palace. You have concealed your identity for so long, and my master has also paid a lot to find you. Why can't you..."

"what can I do?"

"The young master has liked you for a long time. After you died, he went crazy looking for you everywhere. Do you really not have any thoughts about him at all?"

Bai Ran asked this question because he wanted to know what Nan Jinming was thinking.

The young master has married into the palace, and there is no way for me to follow him in, so I can only wait for him outside.

"I'm married now, and I only think of him as a younger brother. Please tell him to live a good life."
