Mingyao walked outside for a long time today.

He went from a jewelry shop to a study shop, and even to a weapons shop, and even had lunch outside.

The two guards followed her.

Although they didn't know what the Sixth Miss wanted to buy, she was right under their noses and they were too lazy to interfere.

We strolled around until dusk before returning.

Because the carriage was taken away by Gu Jiarou, Ming Yao asked the guards to go to the city to harness a carriage, and then returned home with a lot of bags.

When the doorman learned that the carriage had been borrowed by Sixth Miss's friend, he didn't say anything.

It's a small thing.

Although Mingyao no longer has a high status in the mansion, the servants will not make things difficult for her on these matters.

What's more, a few days ago, Miss Cuiwei, who was beside the old lady, came to tell them to be more polite to the Sixth Miss recently and not to really make her angry.

As for the two guards, they no longer followed Mingyao after she returned home.

The master and servant took the things back to the house.

Return to the room.

Qian Shuang couldn't hold it anymore.

"Master, you said the prince..." She spoke with a pale face.

When Mingyao heard this name, her originally calm expression suddenly changed.

According to the pace and time, my brother should be with Gu Jiarou by now. I wonder if Gu Jiarou succeeded?

She and her brother really would...

Although it was her plan, Ming Yao's face turned pale when she thought of the result.

Ming Yao swayed slightly, and after steadying herself on the table, she said in a hoarse voice, "Don't think about it. We still have a tough battle to fight."

She was ready for the coming storm.

Qian Shuang's face turned even paler when she thought of this. She was just worried about the prince before, but now she was afraid...

Ming Yao caught a glimpse of it and tried to comfort him: "Don't worry, I will say that I forced you to do it and I won't let anything happen to you."

Qian Shuang's expression changed, and she said hurriedly: "Master, I am not..."

Mingyao was too lazy to pay attention.

She was now exhausted and felt uneasy. She was too lazy to think about these things anymore and waved her hand: "I'll go and rest for a while."

Otherwise, she was afraid that she would not have the strength to face those people from the Ming family at night, to face... her brother.

Mingyao thought that she was so sleepy that she would fall asleep quickly.

But I don’t know what happened.

She lay in bed, unable to fall asleep.

In her hand she still held the hairpin her brother had given her.

When Mingyao closed her eyes, she could think of how good her brother had been to her over the past ten years... Her brother was the first person in the family to express kindness to her.

For so many years, he was the one who protected her and accompanied her.

Whenever she encountered difficulties or was despised and talked about outside, her brother would stand up for her.

"elder brother……"

Mingyao closed her eyes, tears rolling down from the corners of her eyes.

Just as she was about to hold the hairpin and curl herself up a little more, she heard a voice from outside: "Yaoyao, are you there?"

The familiar male voice made Mingyao open his eyes immediately.

She sat up almost immediately.

"elder brother?"

She murmured, and subconsciously wanted to get up and greet people as she did before.

But when she thought about what she had done, she started to laugh at herself again.

Is it an auditory hallucination?

My brother should be with Gu Jiarou now. Even if he comes back, how can he treat her as before after being set up by her?

I'm afraid he now even wants to kill her.

She was feeling depressed and was about to lie back down when she saw the door open. Soon, a familiar figure walked in.

"Yao Yao!"

Ming Jingheng's face was filled with anxiety, but he finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Ming Yao sitting on the bed safe and sound.

As he strode over, he said to Ming Yao, "You scared me to death!"

"Are you okay?"

He looked at Mingyao and asked.

Mingyao still had a dazed look on her face. When she came to her senses, she was also shocked: "Brother, why are you..."

Qian Shuang, who had just returned from the kitchen with food, was also stunned when she saw Ming Jingheng.

"Prince?"

Fearing that the prince was here to settle accounts with the young lady, her face changed. Just as she was about to run over, she heard the prince speak first: "Aren't you at Jingxin Temple? When did you come back? Why didn't I see you on the way?"

When Mingyao heard the three words "Jingxin Temple", she finally came to her senses.

But looking at her brother's appearance at this moment, she vaguely felt that something was wrong.

Not knowing what happened, she was afraid that Qian Shuang would say more and make more mistakes, so she winked at her first, then found an excuse and replied: "I wanted to go, but then I thought it was boring, so I came back."

"Brother is gone?"

"You asked Qianshuang to come to me like this, how could I not go?" Ming Jingheng sighed.

Now even Qian Shuang realized that something was wrong.

She stood aside and for a moment even forgot to put down the food box in her hand.

Ming Jingheng didn't know what the master and servant were thinking. He sat on a chair beside the bed and looked at Ming Yao helplessly.

Although this sister has no blood relationship with him, they have lived together for ten years. How could there be no feelings between them?

He always thought that their family would live together forever.

Even if she gets married in the future and needs him as a brother, he will definitely do his best to help her.

Who could have thought it would turn out like this?

He no longer wanted to talk about those mistakes, but he really couldn't do what Ming Yao asked for.

If he helps her again.

I don’t know who will be harmed in the future.

He could only advise earnestly: "I know you like the Fourth Prince, but look, the Fourth Prince has been back for so long, has he ever come to your house to look for you once?"

Without hearing Ming Yao speak, Ming Jingheng continued, "I also know that you don't want to leave and don't want to go to the Zhuang family, but Yaoyao, you should know that some things can't be undone."

"Although the Zhuang family is far away, the people there don't know about you. Grandmother has already written a letter asking them to take good care of you."

"You could live there happily forever."

"Brother can also promise you that as long as I am free, I will definitely take time to visit you every year."

Mingyao's mind was full of questions at this moment: how could her brother suddenly come back? Why didn't she meet Gu Jiarou when she went to Jingxin Temple? What was going on?

Is she upset?

How could I care about what Ming Jingheng was saying at this moment?

Until I heard Ming Jingheng sigh again: "Yaoyao, be more obedient."

She finally came to her senses.

She quickly calmed down and said to Ming Jingheng, "Brother, I understand. I won't do anything stupid again. I will be obedient and leave after your birthday party is over."

Ming Jingheng finally felt relieved after hearing her say this.

He let out a long sigh and laughed: "Just figure it out, just figure it out."

He promised Mingyao: "When the time comes, I will personally escort you out of the city."

Ming Yao's mind was full of Gu Jiarou's affairs at this moment. Hearing this, she just forced a smile and said, "Brother, I'm a little tired."

Ming Jingheng also noticed the fatigue on Ming Yao's face.

He didn't say anything more, just said: "Then you have a good rest, I'm leaving first."

After he finished speaking, he stood up and asked Qianshuang to take good care of Mingyao.

Qian Shuang agreed and sent Ming Jingheng out. When she came back, she immediately asked Ming Yao, "Master, how could this happen? Didn't the prince meet the princess?"

Mingyao was also confused.

Gu Jiarou had already made up her mind and would not change it at the last minute. But if she was in Jingxin Temple, her brother would never come back like this.

what happened?

She always felt that something had happened, but she didn't dare to confirm it, fearing that something had really happened. She could only lower her voice and tell Qian Shuang: "Go to the gatehouse and ask quietly if Lao Chen, who sent Gu Jiarou there, has returned?"

If Lao Chen comes back, it means Gu Jiarou is fine.

Maybe she changed her mind at the last minute.

But if Lao Chen doesn’t come back either, then this matter... Ming Yao’s face turned pale just thinking about this possibility.

Seeing Qian Shuang still standing there stupidly, Ming Yao's voice became anxious: "Why don't you go!"
