Chapter 275: Chapter 278 Hua Mei Kidnapped
Yun Qianyu asked Ye Jia, “What do you think of what I told you earlier?”
Ye Jia did not object to helping Yun Qianyu manage the people and things around her. After all, she intended to stay with Yun Qianyu for the time being. However, if she took over management, what would Hua Mei think of her?
“Feather, if I helped you, how would Hua Mei feel?”
“Don’t worry about Hua Mei. She’s a simple person and won’t think much of it.”
After hearing that, Ye Jia didn’t refuse and nodded gently. Yun Qianyu chuckled, ‘Finally I don’t have to worry too much about these brats. With Cousin looking after the trivial things, I will be able to put more energy into cultivation in the future.’
The carriage drove all the way to the Black Bamboo Pavilion and the group stepped off the carriage.
Xiao Yechen also got off his horse and walked to Yun Qianyu. Yun Qianyu then said casually, “You should be going back now.”
Xiao Yechen shook his head and said, “I’ll walk you in, let me just accompany you a little longer.”
After saying that, he felt a blunt blow to his heart. The feelings he had for her had to be buried away so quickly. It was so fast that he couldn’t even taste the joys of it. Now there was only pain in his heart.
However, he didn’t want to make things difficult for Yun Qianyu, and he didn’t want to lose a friend like her. Thus, he decided to bury his feelings in the darkest corner in his heart and remain her friend.
However, tonight, just for one night, he wanted to spend more time with her.
Yun Qianyu saw the yearning in his eyes, and thought that she should refuse him without mercy. However, thinking about the care and help he had given her, her heart finally softened. “Alright, send me back and quickly go back to the west camp.”
In fact, Yun Qianyu was worried that if Xiao Yechen went back late, Xiao Jiuyuan might cause him some trouble.
Xiao Yechen smiled, but it was also obvious that he was hurting. Noticing this, Yun Qianyu turned around with great determination and walked into her residence. Xiao Yechen followed by her side.
Ye Jia walked at the back and looked at the two of them, thinking to herself ‘Love is not easy.’
On their walk back, neither of them spoke.
However, when they arrived at her residence, Yun Qianyu felt that something was wrong: Little Bell was not at her post.
Even though Little Bell was simple and straightforward, she seldom refused to do the things she was told to do. If she was responsible for guarding the gate she would not let any stranger through. To find that she had left her post meant that something was wrong.
Yun Qianyu hastily walked into her residence with a worried look on her face. From behind, Xiao Yechen asked, “What’s wrong?”
Yun Qianyu then replied in a stern tone, “Little Bell is missing, something must have happened.”
Upon hearing that, Xiao Yechen became worried but comforted Yun Qianyu, “Don’t worry. Maybe Little Bell is just being playful. Let’s look around for her first.”
Yun Qianyu immediately ordered, “Everyone split up to look for her.”
Unfortunately, they did not find her.
In Yun Qianyu’s room, however, an arrow with a note attached to it was found.
Yun Qianyu quickly took the note and opened it. “If you want to save Hua Mei, then come alone to No. 118 courtyard, Huayi Lane. If you don’t come, or someone other than you comes, you’ll then need to prepare a coffin for Hua Mei.”
