She is a heartthrob who wants to live a good life
Chapter 406 Kind and Weak Jianghu No. 1 Beauty 38
Wen Guihan and Shen Weicang did not follow the original route to Wenjian Villa. He sat in the carriage holding the girl, with a guilty look on his face:
"I'm sorry for making Cang Cang suffer. When we get to Wenjian Villa, I will definitely compensate you."
He didn't dare tell Cang Cang about Shenjiazhuang, for fear that she would go back. Now she could never go back to Qingzhou.
After sending Cang Cang back to Wenjian Villa, he would return to Shenjia Villa in person, hoping that it would still be in time.
Shen Weicang also reached out and hugged his waist tightly, snuggling in his arms: "Gui Han, will Shen Zheng be in danger?"
Wen Guihan sighed and counseled softly: "No, he is very skilled in martial arts, and it might be dangerous to face Su Zhao head-on, but Shen Zheng can just avoid him."
Shen Weicang was silent.
Was she wrong and Shen Zheng was more capable than she thought, or was Wen Guihan simply comforting her?
She closed her eyes and prayed in her heart that this was just Wen Guihan comforting herself.
This time they left overnight as if fleeing, and Shen Weicang had no time to complain. After hearing what Shen Zheng said about Su Zhao's identity, she wished she could ride away on horseback.
Being held tightly by Wen Guihan, she felt safe and sleepy. She curled up in Wen Guihan's arms and asked him softly, "Guihan, you will protect me, right?"
"I used to think I was so powerful, but today I realized that Shen Zheng was deliberately letting me win, so I defeated him every time," she said weakly, "I will never try to be brave again, Guihan, you must protect me."
"You don't know, Su Zhao just grabbed my whip. He must want to kill me. I don't know how I offended him. He took me away and wanted to kill me."
She would not tell anyone about the ruby bodhi bracelet. Now she gave the unlucky bracelet to Shen Zheng, leaving him to die. Only she knew about this.
Shen Weicang spoke nonsense, mixing truth with lies, which broke Wen Guihan's heart.
He knew why Su Zhao wanted to kill Cang Cang, but he didn't dare to tell her about it. He could only hug her tighter and gently kiss her forehead:
"It's all my fault. I didn't protect Cang Cang well."
It was bright outside, and Su Zhao was sitting in his study painting. A man in black appeared silently in the room. He asked calmly, "How is it?"
"Miss Shen and Wen Guihan left the city, and Shen Zheng rode another route."
Su Zhao did not say anything, and sketched a few more strokes before he sighed and put the pen down, his face indifferent: "Send those people last night to Fengyu Tower."
The man in black didn't dare to look up and replied with a "yes".
Even though they had ruined the Marquis' business, it was already a favor from the master to just send them to Fengyu Tower. He thought that those who didn't do their job well last night would not survive today.
Su Zhao's eyes fell softly on the person in the painting, and his voice softened a little:
"Send a message to Su Jing, telling her to stay in Qingzhou and not to attack Shenjiazhuang anymore. She is not allowed to send anyone to keep an eye on the Shen family. Wait for my order."
He frowned and thought for a while: "Forget it, you go there yourself."
The man in black asked hesitantly, "What about Jiang Jingyu and Jiang Jingjue...?"
Su Zhao narrowed his eyes and said coldly: "As long as the Shen family doesn't take action, just kill him."
"Yes."
The man in black retreated silently. The Marquis meant that as long as the Shen family took action, Jiang Jingyu and Jiang Jingjue could not be killed.
Su Zhao raised his hand to support his chin, with a look of worry on his face.
Cang Cang seems to be very afraid of him now. He was able to catch up with Wen Guihan last night, but he seemed to be injured and his kung fu was restricted.
But he knew that chasing after him would do no good except making Cang Cang more afraid of him.
He thought hard, what method could he use to get close to Cang Cang without making her afraid of him?

Qingzhou, Hongji Opera Troupe.
Su Jing and Xu Fang were in the private room, one standing and the other sitting. Xu Fang didn't dare to raise her head, nor did she dare to wipe the cold sweat from her forehead.
"Master Su," he said with a trembling voice, "your servant..."
He trembled for a long time but could not tell the reason. He knelt on the ground and said, "Master Su, please spare my life!"
Su Jing's face was a little pale. She was wearing a white shirt as usual today. Her voice was filled with anger: "If the Imperial Concubine hadn't insisted that I bring you here, would you have had the opportunity to serve the Marquis?!"
She was very angry:
"You think you can't order you around because you're so popular in front of the queen? You've been eating, drinking and having fun in Qingzhou these past few months, and you can't even tell what the young lady of Shenjia Village looks like!"
With her breath unstable, the whip wound on her back became more and more painful. She closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and her voice became colder:
"The Marquis never cares about who he is favored by when dealing with people. You're on your own."
Xufang was so frightened that she was shaking all over, crying bitterly, and reached out to grab the corner of Su Jing's clothes:
"Master Su, Guard Su, I beg you, please save me. No one in Qingzhou City knows that there are two Miss Shens in Shen Family Manor!"
"I thought that Shen Yuwan was the Third Miss Shen. Who would have thought that Shen Family Manor was so cunning that they had actually sent one of the ladies away!"
Su Jing took a deep breath and kicked him away: "Save you? I can't even save myself, how can I save you?"
She was really a little discouraged. She had already been punished for misjudging the Marquis's intention, and now Duan Yiheng was dead. But how could this little thing, which could not be considered a credit, offset such a huge negligence?
The Marquis asked her to investigate the Shen family's affairs and keep an eye on Shenjia Village. Now that she let the third young lady of the Shen family run away, she is afraid that she will not be able to escape death.
Su Jing tried his best to calm himself down: "Is Shen Yuwan really the lady of Shenjiazhuang?"
Xufang replied with tears in her eyes, "Really? When I approached her, I was beaten up by the eldest and second young masters of the Shen family."
Su Jing said in a deep voice: "For the time being, keep an eye on Shenjiazhuang. I will send people to chase the other Miss Shen. I hope that Miss Shen can be captured before the Marquis comes."
Anyway, I would die if the Marquis found out that I had concealed the truth from him, and I would also die if I told the Marquis directly about it, so I might as well take a gamble.
Xu Fang breathed a sigh of relief temporarily, and said timidly: "Then should I still approach Shen Yuwan?"
Su Jing closed his eyes and said, "Idiot, you've scared people so much that they dare not go out. You'd better be quiet. Otherwise, if Shen Qiong kills you, I won't save you!"
Xufang responded hesitantly. He really wanted to go back to the palace immediately, as it was not easy to get along with the Marquis.
Su Jing returned to his own place, his eyes stern, and just as he drew out his sword, the man in black opened the door: "It's me."
"Su Heng?"
Su Jing was a little surprised: "Why did you come to Qingzhou?"
Her expression changed: "Could it be that the Marquis is here?"
Su Heng said calmly: "The Marquis ordered you not to do anything to Shenjiazhuang anymore. Wait in Qingzhou for his order."
Su Jing looked a little strange: "No need to inquire about the Shen family's affairs, and no need to keep an eye on Shenjiazhuang?"
Su Heng nodded: "The Marquis..."
He thought of the Marquis's attitude towards Miss Shen and shook his head silently. He was so bold that he wanted to talk about his master's concerns.
"Anyway, you should stay here for now. The Marquis has his own plans."
The reason Shen Qiong and Shen Que beat Xu Fang was actually because they saw that he was Su Zhao's man, but they just took advantage of their sister's fright.
Shen Yuwan was timid to begin with, and Xufang pestered her every time she went out. She was so scared that she dared not go out anymore. She spent the whole day embroidering purses in the yard, sighing from time to time.
Even the two maids, Jinzhu and Yinzhu, couldn't stand it anymore. They didn't know why the young lady was so sad every day.
The two maids naturally could not imagine that Shen Yuwan was still thinking about Wen Guihan in her heart. When she thought that he left without even telling her, she felt extremely lost. Did Master Wen have forgotten about her a long time ago?
