Stunning Poisonous Doctor Princess-Chapter 814 - A Mysterious Man
Chapter 814 A Mysterious Man
“Okay,” Baisu answered.
She had always been meek. Especially in front of Lin Mengya, she looked more like a quiet and reticent girl following Lin Mengya with her cold and murderous look fading away.
Lin Mengya had all along met all kinds of people.
Baisu might not be the most outstanding among them and had a falling out with Lin Mengya before.
But the only constant was that they were all willing to follow her.
Lin Mengya, who was closing her eyes for rest in the carriage, did not notice that Baisu was staring at her with admiration.
Given Baisu’s identity, she actually had met all kinds of big shots.
However, she had never met a woman like Lin Mengya who relied on her capabilities to gain her footings in various countries.
Fabulous wealth, supreme power and excellent martial arts enabling one to defeat a multitude of people seemed eclipsed in front of Lin Mengya.
Despite knowing that Lin Mengya was never an ordinary person, Baisu still followed her like a bird in pursuit of light, and no one and nothing could stop her from doing so.
“What’s wrong? Why are you looking at me like that?” Lin Mengya asked.
The carriage jolted slightly, she opened her eyes, only to see Baisu look away shyly.
“No... nothing. Miss, I have a question for you.” After averting her eyes in a panic and thinking for a while, Baisu couldn’t help asking.
Lin Mengya motioned for Baisu to continue, as she noticed that Baisu seemed to be slightly different from before since she reunited with her.
Baisu said, “I’ve learned much about what you did in the Jin State from young master. In fact, I think what you did made little difference. Moreover, you’ve given up your former identity. Aren’t you afraid that you won’t be able to go back?”
In Baisu’s view, Lin Mengya was never the kind of great person willing to sacrifice herself for a righteous cause.
Sometimes, Lin Mengya even tended to seek revenge for the smallest grievance.
As such, Baisu was surprised at Lin Mengya’s choice to give up everything and come here.
Seeing the confused look in Baisu’s eyes, Lin Mengya smiled bitterly.
She said, “That’s true. If I put it aside, I may be able to live a peaceful life for the time being. But my life will be quietly entangled in something like poisonous vines. I can’t live the rest of my life in fear and trepidation. Baisu, since we’re sisters, there is something that I can’t hide from you. I’m in great trouble that will imperil my life one day. So I hope that you could discard me and not sacrifice for anyone easily when the time comes, as you will lose everything after dying.”
Seeing Lin Mengya’s extremely severe look, Baisu wanted to say something, but eventually nodded solemnly.
No matter what trouble her master got into, she would stand in front of her master to protect her.
But if she really couldn’t save her master, at least she could save herself and accumulate strength to avenge her master!
“Don’t be so serious. In fact, Baiji and the others have missed you a lot after you left. By the way, we have more members of our courtyard now. I adopted a well-behaved and lovely baby called Moyan, and they doted on him. After we get things done here, you can go back with me,” Lin Mengya said.
At the mention of the members of the Liuxin Courtyard, both Lin Mengya and Baisu softened their faces.
They always attached great importance to affection among family members. Moreover, Baiji and the others really treated them like family members.
“I also miss them a lot. I went to see you a few times before I left the Jin State. For fear that I would be discovered by you, I... Who is it?” Baisu, who was talking, suddenly shouted with her face changing.
As the long sword in her hand was thrown out of the carriage like lightning, she disappeared from Lin Mengya’s sight in an instant.
“Be careful!” Lin Mengya said.
Were Madame Hui’s men here?
Lin Mengya furrowed her brows. Although she had expected that Madame Hui would not allow herself to be arrested without offering any resistance, she did not expect Madame Hui’s men to come at this moment.
“Protect Miss Helan. I’ll be back shortly.” After giving instructions to the attendants around her calmly, Baisu nodded at Lin Mengya and walked towards the surrounding suspicious areas.
“Miss, rest assured. No one can hurt you with us here,” the attendants said.
Those who stayed here were brought by Lin Mengya and Baisu from the imperial palace, and many of them were left behind by Xiaoyu to protect Lin Mengya.
She was not worried about her safety, but her conversation with Baisu had revealed quite a few secrets.
If someone found out that she was Princess Yu who was supposed to be dead, she would probably get into trouble.
They should have been more cautious. After all, they were not in the imperial palace.
Letting down the curtain of the sedan chair, Lin Mengya snapped out of her thoughts.
As soon as she looked forward, she saw a dark figure appear in her carriage at some point.
Lin Mengya, whose hair stood on end, forced herself to calm down so as not to scream.
The man’s martial arts was so weird that she didn’t notice his showing up at all!
“Who are you? Who sent you here?” She questioned the man in black in a low voice.
She, close to him, was in peril.
If she dared to raise her voice, the man in black in front of her would have enough time to kill her.
The man said, “We’ve met once before. Young lady, you couldn’t possibly have forgotten me so quickly, could you?”
They had met once?
Thinking back quickly, Lin Mengya finally found her memory related to the man in black.
He was the strange man she met on the street that day.
Could it be that he had been following her on purpose?
“Sir, what exactly do you mean? There is no enmity between us. Do you have any misunderstanding of me?” She tried to communicate with the men in black, while stalling for time and thinking of a way to escape.
She and the man in black sat on each side of the carriage and equally close to the door of the carriage.
If she rolled out of the carriage now, the distance between them would definitely be shortened.
In this way, she would fall into a perilous position.
If she jumped out of the window, after measuring the size of the window with her eyes, she found she would be very likely to get stuck in the window.
She was brainstorming ways to escape rapidly, unaware that the dark eyes under the black cloak were almost as burning as magma.
She must be calculating the possibility of getting away from him.
Long Tianyu would have been reluctant to fool her like this before.
But after what she had done to him, he decided to teach her a lesson.
Otherwise, she would forget who her husband was.
“You’d better remain unaware of who sent me. I just want to ask you about something,” the man under the cloak said in a hoarse voice that Lin Mengya had never heard before.
She swallowed. In the current situation, she could only communicate with him and try to sound him out on his purpose slowly.
Otherwise, she would probably be doomed.
“Please go ahead,” she said.
As the cloak moved, Lin Mengya’s wrists were grabbed by a pair of big hands in the black gloves.
With her body stiffening, Lin Mengya looked a little unnatural.
“I wonder why a lady with such a pair of delicate hands is so vicious. The dagger in your hand is poisoned, isn’t it? Tsk, what a pity that such a beautiful lady is so vicious,” Long Tianyu said, grasping her wrists composedly.
If it were not for his keen eyes, he might have totally ignored that she was drawing the dagger hidden in her sleeve.
Did she really intend to murder her husband?
“I... You were deceived by your eyes. Besides, I just wanted to protect myself. Could it be that you, as a man, are afraid of me, a physically weak woman? You’d better let go of my hands, or you’ll regret it,” Lin Mengya said.
Although her wrists were grasped, she regained her composure.
The man was very strange, and his cloak was somewhat special.
She had no idea what his cloak contained.
For the first time here, her sensitive radar failed to identify something.
But after a moment of surprise, Lin Mengya realized that her radar was a scientific instrument rather than a sort of supernatural power after all.
In this case, it was normal that there were some substances in the natural world her radar was incapable of identifying.
She was certain that her Shen Nung System was one of a kind and it would not be discovered.
The only explanation for that was the cloak the man wore might be of other special use.
As Lin Mengya began to think hard, she gradually regained her usual composure.
She lifted her head and looked into the man’s eyes fearlessly. However, she broke free from his grip without much effort.
“Sure enough, you are as remarkably bold as the rumors say. However, I’m very interested in you. I heard that you have been married. In this case, why didn’t I see your husband today?” Long Tianyu said.
He found her unexpectedly adorable when she was nervous.
She had always been gentle, poised, smart and virtuous around him.
Nevertheless, he missed the lovely look she showed when she tried to swindle him out of his money by pretending to be angry even more.
He was well aware that the heavy burdens on her restricted her vivacity.
Therefore, at least here, he would like to see more sides of her.
“My husband... my husband is out. If you want to meet him, you may come three days... no, half a year later. My husband is a traveling businessman and won’t be back in a short time,” she said.
Her husband was probably fighting for power in the Capital City of the Jin State.
For fear that the man would discover anything, she hurriedly made up a lie and said in an extremely sincere tone, trying hard to convince the man.
Long Tianyu secretly raised his eyebrows, revealing a slightly weird smile.
She was really fond of talking nonsense. An interesting idea came into Long Tianyu’s mind.
