The lights in the yard where a evergreen tree was planted at the door were still on, presumably because they hadn't stopped yet.

Fang Huaixu knocked on the wooden door again. Within half a quarter of an hour, a thin girl came and opened the door.The moment he caught the girl's appearance in his eyes, he couldn't help but feel startled.

Although the woman told her that Zhou Ning was thin, she never expected to lose so much weight. A layer of skin clung to the bones on his body, so where was the meat?After all, he had some friendships, and he couldn't help but feel pity and sympathy in his heart.

His Adam's apple moved and he asked, "Do you still remember me?"

"Remember. In the past, you and A-Yao always looked for me together, but we haven't seen each other for two years. How could I forget? My memory is not that bad. If I forget anyone, I would not dare to forget you, this noble young master."

Zhou Ning chuckled softly and joked, her face was bloodless and as white as a human being. The lantern she held in her hand cast a dim yellow shadow on her body, making her look like a ghost who had been dead for a month.

Fang Huaixu agreed with a smile and went straight to the point: "Something happened to Ayao. Two of her closest relatives and loved ones needed to cut her heart and feed her for seven days before she could wake up. I'm one of them, and there's another one. ...I thought of you."

"You must have heard about the changes in Ayao's family. Since then, her temperament has changed drastically. The Minister of Civil Affairs broke off the relationship with her. His wife is depressed. Now she is traveling to the west. The Minister has married a new man. Not to mention it is heartbreaking. I'm afraid Even a few drops of blood from my fingertips are not willing to be shed for Ayao." He said, frowning and sighing.

Zhou Ning nodded: "I understand."

That's all she said.

Whether he is willing to do it or not, he is vague and has no answer.

It wasn't until Shi Yu asked tentatively that she wondered: "I'm afraid I won't be able to give you an answer so quickly. In the past two years, too many things have happened. To A Yao..." Zhou Ning said mid-sentence. Fang Huaixu, who was standing sideways, glanced away and pursed his lips, "No matter what kind of emotion it is, it has been worn away after all."

"Ayao can't wait too long." The remnant soul can be preserved for one month after entering the new body, but the time for feeding the heart and blood is also removed, which is only about 23 days.

What happened in the past few days was so messy that Fang Huaixu couldn't explain it clearly in a few words. He only said: "When you understand, go to my mansion and find me. I will tell you everything in its place."

Zhou Ning responded: "Okay."

"Smelly bitch, why haven't you come back for so long! Who knocked on the door and who are you looking for?" A man with a stubble limped to the door and caught a glimpse of the two young men standing outside. The anger was rising.

He picked up the wooden stick placed at the door and walked towards the thin girl step by step like a fierce spirit from hell, cursing in his mouth: "You son of a bitch! You can't get tired of living! I'm still resting in the house, You actually had an affair with someone else! I have to break your legs now! Let you remember a lot!"

As he spoke, he raised his stick to hit.

"No, no...I didn't..." All the past events flashed through his mind, and Zhou Ning was so frightened that her face turned pale, as if she had fallen into an ice cellar in an instant and all the blood in her body was frozen, unable to move.

Seeing that the stick was about to fall on her, the girl on one side quickly pulled her away.

The lame man threw himself in the air, feeling very angry. He stamped his foot and reached out to grab Zhou Ning's collar.Shi Yu protected the person and took a few steps back. The hurried lame man was blocked by a folding fan. He glared at Zhou Ning and said angrily: "What! Are all of them your lovers? Okay, you, die. Don’t change your sex!”

Fang Huaixu stepped forward and explained: "You misunderstood. We came to look for her because there is something important——"

"It's important. Why does it have to be so important at night? Don't think I don't know what you guys are thinking! Get out of here! I'm going to teach my own wife a lesson, why do you need outsiders like you to stop me?" Pushing away the folding fan in front of him, he took a step forward, his whole body frozen.

All the anger on his face turned into fear.

"The demon, it's a demon!"

His eyes widened, his mouth opened slightly, and his pounding heart jumped directly into his throat. For a moment, he felt like a piece of fish on the chopping board, and he dared to get angry. He quickly changed his face and begged for mercy. He said: "You, my lord, have a lot of monster ancestors. Let me go quickly. If you want her, just take her."

Gu Yunchuan ignored it. He was tapping the folding fan one by one in the palm of his other hand. His eyes fell on Zhou Ning: "What about you? Do you want to follow us or stay here?"

Zhou Ning was frightened to death by the lame man's frantic appearance. He nodded repeatedly in shock: "Let's go, let's go."

As soon as these words came out, the three people's hearts dropped.

When they were about to help people get on the carriage, Zhou Ning suddenly ran into the house. Everyone froze. When they recovered, Zhou Ning had already walked out of the main room with a child in her arms.

She hugged the baby wrapped in a quilt, and her voice sounded weak: "Let's go."

Fang Huaixu was so shocked that when he saw Zhou Ning's current appearance, he felt as if a breath was stuck in his heart, and he felt extremely uncomfortable.No wonder Zhou Ning said that too many things have happened in the past two years, and the relationship has been somewhat worn away.He stretched out his hand and said, "I'll hold you. You can rest in the carriage first."

Zhou Ning handed over the child tremblingly, opened the curtain and got into the car.

The others followed her into the carriage one by one.

Fang Huaixu lowered his eyes and looked at the sleeping child in his arms, and asked, "What's the child's name?"

Zhou Ning replied: "Zhang Cheng."

"Chengcheng."

Fang Huaixu murmured, "What a good name." He changed the subject, "It's just that Zhang Wu is not a good son-in-law. He looked like he wanted to beat you just now. He really wanted to beat you alive." die."

Zhou Ning smiled bitterly: "You'll get used to it. No matter how hard life is, you have to get on with it, right? Besides, I can't make the decision about this marriage. I'm just a captive animal. They buy and sell me to get profit and money from it. I My life, when will it be my turn to make the decision? You and I can survive..."

Shi Yu looked sad and hugged the girl next to her, patting her back gently: "Don't be discouraged. There will be a road before the car reaches the mountain. There is always a way."

"If you don't want to continue living with Zhang Wu, you can leave him with your children and find another way out. You don't need to live a fearful life in the dark quagmire." She advised softly.

Zhou Ning shook her head, big tears rolled down from her eyes, and her words were full of tears: "How can it be so easy..." She started to cry softly, and her crying became louder and louder, as if she was about to cry. The grievances and dissatisfactions that had accumulated in my heart for a long time were finally released.

Shi Yu was not good at comforting others, she only hugged them tightly.

The rickety carriage left the old city village and stopped at the gate of the mansion.

Zhou Ning got out of the car, picked up the child, and followed the maid in the mansion to the residence Fang Huaixu had arranged for her. Shi Yu and Gu Yunchuan also returned to their respective rooms and fell asleep.
