miss the old

After Jinghong came back, Nian Ming boiled the medicine in the prepared medicine pot and gave it to Chi Mu.Watching Chi Mu feed Chi Xin and drink it little by little, Nian Ming hesitated again and again, walked up to Yun Jue and asked quietly: "I'm afraid it's inconvenient here, can't we let him go back with us?"

Yun Jue said: "There are many eyes and ears in the Chi family in the city. He is unable to move now, and Chi Mu is worried that Cheng Lie will find out. In your opinion, how long will it take for him to wake up?"

"Five days." Nian Ming answered affirmatively.

"Then stay here for five more days, and it will be easy to talk about when people wake up."

Nian Ming nodded, that was all he could do.

Yun Jue and Nian Ming returned to the inn in the afternoon.

The hall was quiet, only Xiao Er was drowsy with his arms on his pillow. When he saw the two of them coming in, he hurriedly greeted them, "Hey, Mr. Situ is back."

Yunjue has a cold temper and is not very good at talking with people.The two of them lived for a long time, and Xiao Er observed his words and expressions, so he greeted the smiling young man every time, and he didn't bother to provoke the handsome but expressionless man who had just recovered from a serious illness.

Seeing Nian Ming go up to say hello with a smile, Yun Jue went upstairs and returned to his room alone.

"Your brother is healed?" Xiaoer looked at the back of the man who went upstairs. It was this young man who carried him back at the beginning. He repeatedly assured that his brother was not infected with an infectious disease and he would recover soon. Reluctantly accepted by the shopkeeper to stay.

"Yeah, I said it will be fine soon." Nian Ming looked relieved, Yun Jue had recovered now, and all internal and external injuries were fine, so he could breathe a sigh of relief.

Xiaoer said: "In a few days, the succession ceremony of the owner of the picturesque villa will be held. If you two have nothing to do, you can join in the fun."

Nian Ming was curious, and asked: "Can I go to see it without an invitation?"

"Of course." Xiaoer replied: "Anyone who wants to go to watch the ceremony can go, but the location will be very remote, and the treatment is incomparable with those of the major sects that have invitations."

"I see." Nian Ming nodded thoughtfully.

At night, a black figure sneaked into the picturesque villa, facing the heavily guarded inner courtyard as if he was in no one's land, quietly avoided the patrols and wandered away, but arrived at the Ningshuang courtyard in a short while.

This Ningshuang Courtyard is the residence of Chi Xue, the fourth miss of the Chi family, and because the miss has already fallen asleep, only two lamps are lit at the entrance of the courtyard.But there are more guards at the gate than in other courtyards.As if he hadn't expected this, the masked man in black frowned, found the right location, and flew up to the second floor.

He found a window with a vent, and the man in black came in through the window without a sound. After lighting the sleeping hole of the drowsy night guard girl in the house, he came to the bed in the bedroom, lifted the bed curtain, Gently pushed the person lying on the bed, covered her mouth before she cried out, pulled off the black scarf on her face with the other hand, and smiled softly: "Axue, it's me."

After Chi Xue saw the person's face clearly by the faint moonlight, her almond eyes widened in disbelief, her hands trembling slightly touched the face of the person in front of her, and tears suddenly flowed down uncontrollably.She hugged the visitor tightly, her voice choked up: "Second brother..."

Chi Mu patted her head lightly, and sighed softly, "Axue, long time no see."

Hearing this, Chi Xue sat up straight, and said softly, "I knew you wouldn't ignore it, and you came back as expected."

Chi Mu gently wiped away the tears on Chi Xue's face, and said, "I will not just watch the picturesque villa fall into that person's hands, nor will I just sit and watch you being given to that Nangong Liang just like that." .”

"You know?" Chi Xue was startled and asked.

Chi Mu briefly talked about the conversation he heard between Cheng Lie and Nan Gongliang.

Chi Xue smiled coldly, and said: "That person was afraid that I would escape quietly, so he arranged so many people at the door to watch me."

"No wonder there are so many people in your courtyard suddenly. If your habit of sleeping with the window open hasn't changed, I really don't know how to get in." Chi Mu laughed.

Chi Xue also chuckled, and then remembered something, her face was a little anxious, "I heard people say something happened to my eldest brother."

"It's okay, I've already found my elder brother." Chi Mu patted Chi Xue's head reassuringly, and said, "It's just that elder brother's injury is not serious, but he has already been diagnosed and treated by a young master with excellent medical skills. Eldest brother will be fine."

"It must be that Cheng Lie's trick." Chi Xue said bitterly, "And father, I have been confined here since my eldest brother disappeared, and I have never seen him again. How could father pass on the position of owner to the outer sect? Well, there must be something wrong here."

Chi Mu snorted softly, and said, "Cheng Lie's calculation is good. My eldest brother and I are not here, and you are going to be married to Nan Gongliang by him. The position of the owner of the villa is not something he has in his pocket. Look at it. It’s quite legitimate.”

Chi Xue asked, "Second Brother, what are you going to do?"

"I'll sneak into the villa first, and find a chance to meet the owner of the villa. I suspect that the owner of the villa is controlled by them." Chi Mu frowned, and said: "If that's the case, once the position of the owner is obtained, There's no guarantee that Master Chi won't be harmed by Cheng Lie."

Hearing Chi Mu's address with the three words "Master Chi", Chi Xue's heart seemed to be grabbed by someone, and she felt a little pain, but she didn't say much, just thought about it, Said: "It is easier to enter as a servant, and it seems that they are recruiting people to take care of the courtyards on the east side recently."

"This is an opportunity." Chi Mu thought for a while, and had an idea in his mind.Then he looked at the sky, and said: "It's getting late, I should go back too. Take care of yourself, trust second brother, I will definitely not let Cheng Lie succeed."

Chi Xue shook Chi Mu's hand vigorously, then nodded heavily: "Yes."

Chi Mu gently rubbed Chi Xue's hair, and left the room as quietly as when he came.The surroundings fell silent, Chi Xue sat on the bed, clutching the quilt tightly with both hands, unable to hide the excitement on her face, great, the eldest brother is safe and sound, the second brother is back!

Chi Mu returned to the hut in the outskirts, and as expected, he found Jinghong waiting for him quietly in the west side of the house, looked him over the moment he entered, and after confirming that he was not injured, he asked, "See you?"

Chi Mu nodded, sat next to him, and said, "Third Sister said that Chi's family just happened to be recruiting, so I'll be there tomorrow."

"I am with you."

"But brother..."

"The leader called the hidden guards here, and he and Young Master Situ will also come here every day."

"All of them have been transferred?" Chi Mu was a little surprised, and said, "Isn't there only Mr. Situ left by his side?"

"The leader said it's okay. Before we came, it was him and Mr. Situ, not to mention that the leader's injuries have recovered now."

Chi Mu was speechless, and even felt that Yun Jue's statement was quite reasonable, and said with a wry smile, "Because of my selfishness, I really troubled you this time."

Jinghong shook his head and said: "As long as it is what you want to do, I will support it, and I believe the leader is the same."

Chi Mu firmly held Jinghong's hand, took a deep breath, and said firmly: "Okay, I should settle the accounts with Cheng Lie for the past few years. We will go to the Picturesque Villa tomorrow. .”
