After rebirth, my wife just wants to be a widow

It was said to be a meeting, but in fact, Shen Ruoyan met one-sidedly.

She knew that Xue Jinbao must hate her deeply at this moment. If she appeared in front of him, she would probably cause a lot of trouble. In order to avoid unnecessary complications, Shen Ruoyan planned to take a look at him from a distance.

In order to deceive others, Shen Ruoyan took Tang Xiuyuan for an outing, and a large group of people set off to the mountains. When passing a village, Qin'er gave Shen Ruoyan a quick wink.

Quietly lifting a corner of the curtain, Shen Ruoyan caught a glimpse of the young man chopping firewood in the yard.

I haven't seen him for more than half a year. Xue Jinbao has grown a lot taller. I don't know how much hardship he has endured. He has become very thin and completely different from the image of the fat man in his impression.

As if sensing something, Xue Jinbao suddenly turned his head and looked over.

Shen Ruoyan was so frightened that she quickly lowered the car curtain, her heart pounding.

She waited until the carriage was far away before she slowly exhaled.

No matter what, I feel sorry for him. I hope Xue Jinbao can escape safely to southern Xinjiang and start his life again there.

This was the last thing I could do for him.

After meeting Xue Jinbao, Shen Ruoyan settled her worries and took Tang Xiuyuan to say goodbye to everyone the next day.

Before leaving, she called Qin'er to her side. After careful consideration, she still did not tell her the news that He Mang was leaving.

After a brief reunion, Qin'er couldn't stand it anymore, her nose turned red from crying, and she asked aggrievedly: "Miss, can't you stay a few more days?"

Seeing Qin'er crying pitifully in front of her, Shen Ruoyan suddenly understood He Mang's worry, pinched Qin'er's nose and said, "Since you are so reluctant to part with me, why don't you go back with me?"

Qin'er thought seriously for a while and shook her head, "I still want to stay here and learn business from Chun Niang. In the future, I will also be the young lady's right-hand assistant."

"Then you should remember this sentence carefully," Shen Ruoyan couldn't help but touch the little girl's head, "Your young lady will have to rely on you in the future."

Hearing Shen Ruoyan's teasing, Qin'er blushed and complained shyly: "Miss, please stop teasing Qin'er."

Before getting on the carriage, Shen Ruoyan glanced at Hemang.

Across the crowd, the boy in feathers nodded slightly towards her.

Shen Ruoyan leaned down and thanked him, then lowered the car curtain and let people set off back to the capital of Yizhou.

On the way back, they encountered a heavy rain. For safety reasons, they stayed in the inn for two more nights and waited until the road surface was completely dry before starting again. Therefore, they returned to the state capital two days later than scheduled.

This trip took almost half a month.

She didn't think it was anything at first, but the closer the carriage got to the government office, the more nervous Shen Ruoyan became. When she thought about seeing Lu Yan soon, she couldn't help but touch her cheek. She didn't know how she had been traveling these past few days. Do you look a little haggard now?

He pursed his lips unconsciously, as if his lips were a little dry.

Do you need to apply some lip gloss?

Hey, why should you care if your lips are too dry?

Shen Ruoyan suddenly remembered that she took the initiative to kiss Lu Yan before leaving, and her face turned red with embarrassment.

"Ayuan." Shen Ruoyan said to Tang Xiuyuan.

Tang Xiuyuan stopped what he was doing and raised his head curiously: "Sister, what's wrong?"

Shen Ruoyan originally wanted him to help her see if there was anything wrong, but then she thought about it. Tang Xiuyuan, a grown man, couldn't figure out the reason even if his brain power was average than that of ordinary people.

"Hey, forget it, keep playing." Shen Ruoyan shook her head.

Tang Xiuyuan lowered his head in confusion and continued to play with the nine-link ring in his hand.

My sister is so weird. Does she want to play with the toy in A Yuan's hand, but is too embarrassed to ask?

But this toy is too simple. I will definitely make a better one for my sister later on!

The carriage stopped in front of the government office. Shen Ruoyan took a deep breath and arranged her hair again. She wondered if Lu Yan would come to pick her up.

After opening the curtain, there were only two guards at the entrance of the government office. Shen Ruoyan couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.

I went back to the yard where I lived, tidied and washed, and waited until after dark, but there was still no sign of Lu Yan.

Shen Ruoyan was a little annoyed and couldn't bear it anymore. She took the initiative to ask Guihua about Lu Yan's whereabouts: "Did Mr. Lu say anything about coming back?"

"Ah?" Guihua was obviously stunned, "Master Lu hasn't been here these days."

"What? He's not in the government office?" Shen Ruoyan was shocked, with an ominous premonition in her heart, "Do you know where Lu Yan went?"

What did Lu Yan do if he wasn't here?

Could it be related to the person who assassinated him?

or……

Guihua shook her head, "The night before yesterday, Mr. Lu suddenly took a lot of people away. It seems that he heard that he was going to arrest someone."

Arrests?

Shen Ruoyan's heart kept falling, and her breathing became cautious.

He Mang said that he would take Xue Jinbao away immediately after Shen Ruoyan left. Lu Yan received the news the night before yesterday, and counting the days, it is very likely that He Mang's whereabouts were exposed on the road.

She clenched her hands into fists, and the stinging pain from her nails digging into her palms made Shen Ruoyan calm down a little.

He kept comforting himself in his heart that he must be overthinking it. Xue Jinbao has changed so much now that he may not be recognized by others. In addition, He Mang always has those weird waists on his body, even if he is discovered , you can also get away safely.

Moreover, Lu Yan might have gone to arrest the same group of people who assassinated him a few days ago.

Before things became clear, she must not scare herself or throw herself into confusion.

"Osmanthus, do you know who Mr. Lu is going to arrest this time?" Shen Ruoyan tried her best to make her voice less nervous.

"How do I know this?" Osmanthus was so carefree that she didn't notice anything unusual about Shen Ruoyan, "I'm just a village girl. Why would a big shot like Mr. Lu say this to me?"

Shen Ruoyan could only smile awkwardly and had no sleep all night.

In the following days, she asked others about Lu Yan's whereabouts one after another. Everyone was hesitant and unclear. They only knew that Lu Yan was going to arrest an extremely important person this time. As for who it was, they didn't know who it was. .

Shen Ruoyan was uneasy for several days, and finally late one night, she heard a noise coming from the front yard.

She quickly put on her clothes and stood up.

Maybe she heard the movement in her room, and a black figure jumped in from the window.

Shen Ruoyan was startled, and after taking a closer look, she recognized the secret guard who had been following her, and asked, "Is Lu Yan back?"

The man didn't hide anything and nodded sharply.

Shen Ruoyan's heart was beating so hard that she couldn't wait until Lu Yan came back, so she tidied up a little and hurried forward.
