After rebirth, I became the widow of my mortal enemy

Seeing Yan Mobai remained silent, Ning Miao thought he didn't believe it.

"Second Master, you don't think I'm talking nonsense, do you?"

After that, she puffed her lips and muttered a little aggrievedly: "I almost lost my life because of eavesdropping."

Yan Mobai glanced at her, then looked at the dry well next to him: "Why are you in the well?"

"I was afraid they would find me, so I wanted to hide somewhere with tall grass and wait until they left before leaving. But I was too nervous and didn't look at the road, and... I missed a step and fell into the well." Ning Miao said with a red face.

Yan Mobai: "...Fell down by himself?"

Ning Miao lowered his head, feeling a little embarrassed.

"That's right," Yan Mobai raised his eyebrows slightly, as if he was pleased by her appearance, "Think about it, it's impossible that you were pushed into the well by those two. If they found you, they would not leave you alive."

"If the Second Young Master hadn't come, I would have been dead. I cried to the heavens and the earth, but no one answered. I tried many times to climb up, and my palms were worn out, but I still couldn't do it."

As Ning Miao spoke, he spread out his palms for Yan Mobai to see.

The originally white palm was now red and stained with blood.

Yan Mo's eyes moved slightly.

"You should be thankful that there are only grass and dead leaves at the bottom of the well, otherwise you would have fallen to your death before anyone could rescue you."

Ning Miao smiled sweetly, as bright and charming as the rising sun at dawn.

"So, I am lucky. I didn't fall to death, and I waited for you."

She looked into Yan Mobai's eyes, and a soft voice came out from her red lips, full of emotion and a bit of ambiguity for no reason.

It was the first time she used "you" instead of "Second Young Master" in front of him.

Yan Mobai's eyes darkened a little.

Looking away, he squinted at the sky in the distance.

After a moment, he withdrew his gaze, and his black pupils had returned to their usual coldness.

"Aren't you most afraid of being discovered by King Kang's men, and are you most concerned about your life and safety? Why would you take the initiative to do such a dangerous thing?"

"I..." Ning Miao bit her lip, hesitated for a moment, and then continued in a low voice: "I want to gain the trust of the Second Young Master."

"Although I drew the snake pattern for the Second Young Master before, I am not sure whether the Second Young Master can find out the spies of Prince Kang in the palace. If he fails to find any, the Second Young Master will definitely think that I am lying again."

"I just wanted to follow this person with the serpentine jade token to see if I could make some substantial discoveries. If I do, I will tell the Second Young Master and he will believe me." Ning Miao explained softly.

Yan Mobai looked at her and said nothing.

Seeing him like this, Ning Miao showed some frustration and sighed softly: "It seems that the Second Young Master still doesn't believe me."

After saying this, he seemed to remember something and looked up: "If you don't believe me, you can wait and see if there will be such a Taoist priest who can use this method to remove the nightmare for the emperor."

"We have found three spies in the mansion." Yan Mobai said suddenly.

Ning Miao was startled, not expecting him to change the subject so quickly.

No one expected that he would act so quickly. In less than half a day, he had already caught King Kang's spy.

"Do all three of you have serpentine jade tokens?" she asked.

Yan Mobai said “Hmm”.

Ning Miao was pleasantly surprised: "That's great, I finally...finally helped the Second Young Master once."

Thanks to you, I finally got rid of Prince Kang's spies in the Marquis' Mansion.

She told Yan Mobai the snake pattern for three purposes.

1. Send him to Siyuan School instead.

Second, gain his trust and get closer to him.

Third, use him to eliminate Prince Kang’s spies in the palace.

Although Prince Kang's spies did not know her, it was still unsafe to live in the same palace with her.

King Kang is a cautious and suspicious person, so there is no guarantee that he will not discover her through some information passed on by his spies.

"Hand." Yan Mobai said.

Ning Miao came back to his senses, not quite understanding what he meant: "What?"

When he didn't reply to her and took out a small porcelain bottle from his wide sleeves, she realized that he wanted to apply medicine to her hands.

Some surprises.

But it is also what I want.

This is also one of the results she wants to achieve by performing this play today.

Yes, she made it all up.

It was just that she saw Taoist Master Yunju and remembered what happened in her previous life, so she felt it necessary to ruin King Kang's plan.

She did not meet anyone with the serpentine jade token, nor did she follow anyone, and no one contacted Taoist Yunju.

It was she who gave the little beggar the food box, it was she who threw the veil in the deserted yard, it was she who jumped into the dry well herself, and it was she who deliberately inflicted the injuries on her hands.

Firstly, she wanted to use this method to reasonably tell Yan Mobai about the plan of King Kang and Taoist Yunju.

After all, King Kang's plan was too specific, and she knew it in too much detail. If Yan Mobai didn't have a reasonable explanation for what happened, he would definitely be suspicious.

Secondly, she wanted to improve her relationship with this man through this incident.

First, at Siyuan Academy, she left early and chose to walk instead of taking his car, playing hard to get. Later, in order to gain his trust, she followed King Kang's men alone, and found out a shocking secret. She accidentally fell into a well and injured both her hands.

She just didn't believe that he didn't have any ups and downs in his heart.

That's it.

It's time to apply medicine to her.

She slowly stretched out her hands and opened her palms.

Both palms were rubbed and bleeding.

Yan Mobai's eyes were calm as he slowly unscrewed the lid of the porcelain bottle and poured the powder inside into her palm.

Because of the stinging pain, Ning Miao let out a light "hiss" and his hands trembled slightly.

Yan Mobai raised his eyes and glanced at her, his face expressionless.

Continue to sprinkle the powder on her hands.

"Do you have a handkerchief?" Yan Mobai asked.

Ning Miao nodded: "Well, but..."

She couldn't take it.

Because the handkerchief was in her sleeve, both her hands were injured and she had to apply medicine on them.

Yan Mobai naturally understood what she meant.

Ning Miao saw him pursing his lips in silence, then glanced at her hand. Perhaps he thought it still needed to be wrapped, so he took out a handkerchief from his sleeve.

Ning Miao looked at him quietly, watching his bony fingers fold the handkerchief, place it on her palm, wrap it around her, and tie a knot.

I suddenly thought to myself, must he have been injured a lot, which is why he can bandage the wound so skillfully?

"Which sleeve?" Yan Mobai's voice rang out.

Ning Miao came back to her senses and realized that he was asking which sleeve her handkerchief was in.

After all, he only had one handkerchief, and her other hand also had to be bandaged.

She raised her left arm slightly.

Seeing Yan Mobai reaching his hand into her left sleeve, Ning Miao immediately tightened her breathing.

Haruhi's clothes were relatively thin, and even though there was an inner garment between them, she could still clearly feel the warmth of his large hands falling through her clothes on the skin of her forearm.

Ning Miao glanced at the owner of the big hand out of the corner of his eye.

The other person's face remained calm as always, with no discernible emotion.

The handkerchief was taken out.

When they saw the handkerchief being taken out, they both reacted at the same time.

One of them frowned slightly, and the other looked flustered.

Ning Miao is the latter.

Of course, she was pretending.

This handkerchief belonged to Yan Mobai. It was the handkerchief he used to wipe the blood off his hands when she first met him in the front hall on the day she came to the Yongchang Marquis' Mansion.

At that time, he gave her the handkerchief, and she said she would wash it for him, but he said no and asked her to throw it away.
