Female Master: Why doesn’t my wife love me yet?

Chapter 139: Practice more food

Although he didn't know what exactly happened, he just had to follow his master's instructions.

"Everyone can see how much our master loves you, so master, can you tell me what happened?"

Wen Shubai's eyes dimmed a little, and his voice was not loud but just loud enough for the rain to hear.

"...Does she really care about me? Why would she marry someone else?"

"what?"

Yu Shui was a little surprised to hear Wen Shubai's answer. He comforted Wen Shubai, "Master, you are the young master's first wife. You must be the most important to the young master, but..."

Yu Shui scratched his head and said "but" for a long time but couldn't think of any words to comfort Wen Shubai.

In the end, he could only slowly accompany Wen Shubai, and wait until he had cried enough before he said, "Master, do you want to eat something? It's time for dinner now."

"I have no appetite."

He had originally wanted to have dinner with her, but after what happened, he had no appetite at all.

Gu Qingyuan returned from Wen Shubai's room, feeling a little upset. Chunfen saw her come back and quickly said, "Young Master, dinner is ready."

"Okay, bring it over."

Chunfen brought in dinner, and Gu Qingyuan felt full after taking two bites.

"I'm going out for a walk and will be back later."

She pushed her bowl aside and stood up.

……

At the Lin Mansion, Lin Xinghe managed to sneak out while the servants were not paying attention.

He wanted to see her so much.

Her mother said that she was fickle and had a bad temper, but so what? Wasn't her sister the same?

Lin Xinghe was dressed in brocade silk, looking tall and thin, graceful, with skin as delicate as porcelain.

There seemed to be starlight in his eyes, and because they were so well protected, they looked innocent and clean.

Since the Queen implemented the night market, the effect has been remarkable and has greatly enriched the people's night life.

In addition, there are soldiers patrolling at night. If anyone causes trouble and affects other people's business, they will not only be beaten but also fined.

As Lin Xinghe walked, his attention was attracted by the bustling night market.

He had never been out at night before, and he never expected that the capital city could be so lively at night.

However, all the men on the street were accompanied by others, but he was the only one who came out wearing a veil.

However, Lin Xinghe did not forget the purpose of his coming out. He wanted to meet Young Master Gu secretly.

He planned to buy some things for her at the night market, and then use the excuse of giving her things to meet her and ask them about their feelings towards him.

Tonight seems unusual. There are twice as many officers and soldiers patrolling as the day before yesterday, searching for something.

It is said that there is a perverted murderer who specifically targets young men these days.

That's why men go out in groups.

Lin Xinghe didn't know what was going on. When he saw the soldiers passing by, he stepped back to make way for them.

His mother was a Weiwei, and he had seen some of these officers and soldiers before, but not some.

However, as he walked, Lin Xinghe suddenly felt something was wrong.

He felt like someone was watching him, and he was a little scared, but he still picked up a few things in front of the vendor.

It's okay, just wait until we get to the general's mansion.

Lin Xinghe comforted himself in this way.

After he finished shopping, he still had to walk some distance to reach the general's mansion.

Because they sneaked out, Lin Xinghe did not bring any servants with him. He was holding the gift he bought for Gu Qingyuan, which was a lifelike eagle carved out of wood.

He fell in love with the wooden carved eagle at first sight and felt that she was just like this eagle.

Suddenly, a woman's figure appeared in front of him, like a ghost.

"Young Master, you are alone."

The woman's voice was teasing, but it made Lin Xinghe feel uneasy.

"You...who are you?"

He mustered up his courage and looked at the person in front of him, but after seeing her face clearly, he was frightened to death.

Because the woman's face was covered with burns, her eyeballs were turned outward and almost popped out. If someone saw her in the middle of the night, they would think they had seen a ghost.

But there was a woman's shadow on the ground, proving that she was not a ghost.

Lin Xinghe took a step back and asked her warily: "Who are you and what do you want to do?"

The woman chuckled and asked him, "Of course it's the person who wants to kill you."

However, this young man is quite good-looking, so it would be a pity to kill him like this.

It would be better to let her enjoy herself first and then deal with him.

Thinking this, the woman approached him step by step. Lin Xinghe was so scared that he kept backing away. After he came to his senses, he ran away.

"Help, help!"

He ran and shouted with all his might.

Lin Xinghe felt a little regretful that he encountered such a thing for the first time when he went out alone.

The woman watched him run slowly, as if she was staring at her prey. There was no need to rush, because she would catch him eventually.

Lin Xinghe was extremely scared. He felt extremely tired after running for a while. Unfortunately, there was no one on this road, and no one could hear him when he shouted for help.

I won’t die here tonight, will I?

The woman looked scary and even threatened to kill him. Lin Xinghe was so tired that he was gasping for breath, but he didn't dare to stop.

On the other side, Gu Qingyuan came out of the house and planned to go shopping at the night market.

From a distance, she could hear a man shouting "Help!"

She walked in the direction of the sound, and the man's voice became clearer in her ears.

While running, Lin Xinghe paid attention to the movements of the woman chasing her and didn't pay any attention to what was in front of her.

Until he bumped into a woman's warm embrace, he said apologetically: "I'm sorry, but someone behind me wants to kill me, can you save me?"

He looked pitiful, as if he was frightened, with a thin layer of sweat on his head and a little red on his face.

After a while, the woman chased after him. Lin Xinghe huddled behind her, grabbing her clothes nervously.

"Mind your own business and hand that man over to me."

As soon as she saw Gu Qingyuan, she knew that this person was skilled in martial arts and didn't want to conflict with her.

Lin Xinghe pleaded behind her: "Please save me, please, please."

Gu Qingyuan said soothingly, "Leave it to me."

As the young master, it is your duty to protect the people in the city.

She took a step forward and looked at the woman.

Just now her hair covered part of her face, but now her face is completely exposed. That hideous face makes people feel a little nauseous.

"Who are you to speak to me like that?"

The woman sneered, "If you don't accept my toast, you'll have to drink the penalty."

She took out the dagger from her waist and pointed it at Gu Qingyuan's vital point.

When the sword was about to reach Gu Qingyuan's abdomen, Gu Qingyuan clamped the dagger in her hand with two fingers.

Seeing that she had taken her attack without any injury, the woman was surprised at first, and then tried to pull back the dagger.

"You just need to practice more."

Gu Qingyuan snatched the dagger from her hand with one hand and held her down with the other.
