After I became a passerby, I saved the villain's family

Yi Lan looked at the back and felt a little dazed for a moment.

Jiang Ci'an heard some noise behind him, he stopped, turned around, and saw Yi Lan standing not far behind him.

Jiang Ci'an was surprised and a bright smile appeared on his face.

"Miss Yilan, why are you here?"

Upon hearing this, Yuan Guang also turned around and looked at Yi Lan.

After seeing Yuanguang's face clearly, Yi Lan suddenly came back to his senses.

Not the sect leader.

He was the one who had previously hunted down the Beixin Kingdom's spies.

"Miss Yilan, what's wrong?"

Jiang Ci'an saw Yi Lan staring at Yuan Guang and asked.

Yi Lan looked at him, "Are you going out?"

"Yes, there is an emergency in the barracks. You... need me for something?"

Jiang Ci'an saw that she seemed to be hesitant to speak.

Yi Lan nodded, "Let's talk about it when you come back in the evening."

Hearing this, Jiang Ci'an suddenly felt a little happy.

Waiting for you to come back in the evening...

It sounds like what a wife would say to her husband.

Jiang Ci'an felt a little elated.

"Okay, wait until I come back."

After saying that, he smiled at her again, turned around and strode away.

Yi Lan was absent-minded the whole day.

Seeing the man who looked like the sect master today seemed to remind her not to forget her identity as a disciple of Xuanying Sect and that it was time for her to leave.

Yi Lan was holding a piece of jade thread in his hand, staring blankly.

"Girl? Girl?" The maid waved her hand in front of her eyes.

Yi Lan came back to his senses.

"what happened?"

The maid smiled and said, "Miss, this thread is almost finished and will be completed in a moment."

Yi Lan looked at the crooked rope in her hand.

Yes, Luozi was also telling her that it was time to leave.

I know this day will come sooner or later, but when I really open my mouth, why do I feel so sad...

Yi Lan forced herself to cheer up and followed the maid's instructions to complete the last step of making the necklace.

......

As it was getting dark, Jiang Ci'an finished dealing with the military affairs before the sun completely set and rushed home impatiently.

He had dinner with Yi Lan every day these days.

After dinner, he would play chess with her or tell her interesting things that happened in the military camp.

Although he was the one talking most of the time, he felt extremely satisfied when he saw Yi Lan's previous indifference shed and her face calm when facing him.

She had chased him out on purpose this morning, and I wonder if she had something to say to him.

Could it be that...she felt his affection?

Then she shouldn't think that he has any plans for her...

Thinking of this, Jiang Ci'an felt a little excited.

After all, it is really important for him to have his feelings seen.

Jiang Ci'an returned to the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion with great anticipation and couldn't wait to come to Yi Lan's courtyard.

Yi Lan was already sitting in the room waiting.

"Yilan, what do you want to talk to me about?" Jiang Ci'an asked a little embarrassedly.

She wouldn't mind if he called her by her name directly, right?

Yi Lan looked at the stool and said, "Sit down."

Seeing that she did not show dissatisfaction with his address, Jiang Ci'an felt relieved.

As soon as he sat down, he saw Yi Lan take out a net from the winnowing basket beside him.

"This is for you." Yi Lan handed the necklace to him.

"Give it to me?" Jiang Ci'an was very surprised.

Yi Lan didn't waste any words and stuffed it directly into his hand.

Jiang Ci'an looked at the necklace in his hand and felt very excited.

Although this peace cord looks crooked, it is woven very tightly and you can tell at a glance that the person who woven it was very attentive.

"This... was done by you?" Jiang Ci'an's voice trembled.

Yi Lan nodded slightly, "Well, I'll give it to you."

The maid said this was called a peace knot, and she hoped he would have peace in his life.

Jiang Ci'an was so happy that he was speechless.

He held the net and looked at it over and over again.

See, he knew it, the stone will be warmed up one day!

"You said you don't want anything, but you've helped me a lot, and I can't help but repay you." Yi Lan said.

Hearing her words, Jiang Ci'an's eagerness cooled slightly.

Well, he was overthinking it.

But it doesn't matter. Yi Lan is willing to make the lace for him herself, which means that he is still different in her heart.

"By the way, what did you want to see me about this morning?" Jiang Ci'an asked.

Yi Lan thought for a moment and said, "In your mind, what kind of person is Prince Dacheng?"

Jiang Ci paused his hand that was stroking Luozi and looked at her with an unclear expression in his eyes.

"Why do you ask that?"

Yi Lan looked away, "Curious."

Jiang Ci'an smiled.

"His Royal Highness is the most diligent and people-loving crown prince I have ever seen. He knows how to appoint people to the right positions, and he is cunning yet sincere to others."

"The soldiers and people of Dacheng are all proud to have such a future emperor!"

When talking about Xiao Yujing, Jiang Ci'an's face was full of respect.

The Jiang family has had generals for three dynasties, and the current prince is the most discerning person.

If it weren't for his strong recommendation, he wouldn't have had the opportunity to go to the battlefield and make military achievements at such a young age.

Yi Lan looked at the admiration on his face and made up her mind secretly.

She would go to the sect leader in person and reject the mission no matter what the punishment was.

"Jiang Ci'an," Yi Lan said suddenly, "I'm leaving."

Jiang Ci'an paused, and the necklace in his hand fell to the ground.

He bent down and picked up the silk thread on the ground with trembling hands.

I picked it up several times before I could barely hold it in my hand.

"Leaving...what does that mean?" Jiang Ci'an's voice trembled.

Yi Lan looked at him and said seriously:

"My injury is about to heal. I can't stay in the Duke of Zhenguo Mansion forever. I..."

"Why not?" Jiang Ci'an asked.

"What?" Yi Lan looked puzzled.

"Why can't we always live in the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion?"

Jiang Ci'an looked at her with a hint of pleading in his eyes.

"Isn't it good to live in the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion? Have I and the people in the mansion treated you badly?"

Why must we leave? Why must we live a life of fighting and killing?

"You, you misunderstood..."

Yi Lan thought he had misunderstood her dissatisfaction with the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion, and hurriedly explained.

"Everyone in the Zhenguo Mansion is very kind to me, and you are also very kind to me, but I can't just keep accepting your kindness for nothing, I have no way to repay you..."

Hearing her words, Jiang Ci'an suddenly lost control of his emotions.

He stood up with a bang, his chest heaving violently.

"Repay! Is repay the only word in your mind?"

"Do you think that all of our kindness to you is due to some ulterior motive?!"

"Can't you..." see my feelings for you?

Jiang Ci'an bit his lips tightly, his eyes were bloodshot, and he couldn't help crying.

"That was not what I meant......"

It was the first time that Yi Lan saw Jiang Ci'an lose control of his emotions, and she was a little at a loss.

Jiang Ci'an raised his arm and wiped his eyes hard.

"Since you want to leave, then go ahead."

"I'll pretend I've never known you!"

After Jiang Ci'an finished speaking, he clenched the silk ribbon in his hand, turned around and walked away.

Yi Lan stared blankly in the direction he left.

The dull pain in my heart was more intense than ever.

She raised her hand to her chest.

For the first time, I felt the feeling of panic...
