Chapter 26

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The Dong Residence’s courtyard occupied a large area, and two majestic stone lions stood outside the door. It was very imposing.

Under the moonlight, Shen Hua climbed up the stairs and poured a bucket of chicken blood on the door of the Dong residence without hesitation.

The little lady was small, but she was quite agile when it came to doing bad things.

Sticky blood dripped down.

At the same time, in an inn in Fengzhou.

“She’s here too?”

Cui Yun looked up in surprise.

“Yes, Mistress Shen splashed blood on the Dong family’s main door. Presumably, the rumors are not false. She is extremely concerned about the Shu sister in the residence.”

Ji Qing hurriedly said.

Cui Yun’s expression was cold, but there was still some disbelief between his brows. “You came back?”

“This subordinate threw the coffin away and naturally came back to report.”

He had always been efficient.

Cui Yun was speechless.

For some reason, he recalled the first time he saw Shen Hua, who was struggling to turn over with her mink fur draped over her. Her cheeks were hot, and even her delicate nose was red.

She was like a pampered daughter who was seriously ill and could not be cured.

You could have at least said hello.

If Shen Hua was scared to death, he would have wasted this trip.

Cui Yun sighed and slowly stood up.

He flicked his robe and walked out, ignoring the unconscious shaman on the ground.

Meanwhile, Shen Hua was very busy. Her small hands were trembling from the cold. She held the brush and drew on the door unfamiliarly.

However, the strong smell of blood made her nauseous.

She suddenly thought of something and stopped.

“My lady, what’s wrong?” Yi Cui saw this and quickly asked in a low voice.

“I’m really impressed by the Dong Residence,” Shen Hua said sincerely.

Yicui was speechless.

“They can make me wake up in the middle of the night to mess with them, even though I’m sick.” Shen Hua sighed.

Since she was already here, she could not give up now.

Before Shen Hua put away her pen, she did not forget to write a line of small words at the corner of the door.

Yicui came forward and tried to distinguish it with her eyes wide open.

It was a shocking sentence.

—

Yi Cui was speechless.

Her lady was being mischievous again.

After Shen Hua was done, she moved her sore wrist and turned to leave.

After all, it was something that could not be seen in polite company. She had to move faster so no one would see it.

Run!

At some point, a coffin was placed at the bottom of some stairs. Under the moonlight, it shone with a holy light.

It was lucky that he was in the middle of two stone lions. He would be guarded.

The streets were dark and empty.

Confusion!

Shen Hua had seen rain and snow, but she had never seen a coffin ever.

She was speechless. Was she blind?

“Yi Cui.” Her voice was a little shaky, and even her body was trembling. She almost could not catch her breath.

“Is my illness getting worse?” she asked in a trembling voice.

Eh?!

Yi Cui was also dumbfounded. “My lady, it wasn’t an illusion. I saw it too.”

Oh my!

Shen Hua took a deep breath and walked down courageously. She thought it was an empty coffin.

“It seems that the Dong family has offended many people. No one from the Dong family has died yet, but people have already sent this item over.”

“I wonder which lunatic did it?”

“This is simply…”

Shen Hua paused and hummed a pleasant tune. “Well done!”

As she spoke, she walked closer in her embroidered shoes. Her smile grew fainter and fainter.

The air was mixed with the smell of mud. It also carried the smell of decay that had not seen the sun for many years.

It came from the black coffin.

She was still blind.

“Boohoo!”

The cold wind blew, and the sound of a baby crying was heard. The flying yellow talismans scratched Shen Hua’s face.

Shen Hua was speechless.

“Yi Cui.”

This time, her calves started trembling violently.

No matter how rude she could be, she was still a timid woman. It was strange that she was reborn, but she was still alive. Things were also strange now, and it made her hair stand on end.

Shen Hua did not even dare to think about it.

“This servant will help you back.” Yi Cui’s face was as pale as snow.

Shen Hua’s heart tightened. her almond-shaped eyes inevitably filled with tears. She wanted to force herself to calm down, but the weather was too cold.

The weather had to be too cold.

She heard footsteps approaching from afar. As the person approached, his figure became hazier and taller in the night air.

As if afraid of disturbing her, the other party spoke just when Shen Hua noticed that someone was coming over.

“Mistress Shen.”

Her voice was clear and cool, and it sounded familiar.

Shen Hua was stunned.

Cui Yun walked up to her. Under the moonlight, the man’s eyebrows reached his temples, and he had a classy temperament.

He stood between heaven and Earth. He clearly had not done anything yet, but he still made people feel at ease for no reason.

The moment Cui Yun appeared, the fear disappeared, leaving only a lingering fear.

He did not even glance at the coffin. He just looked at Shen Hua indifferently.

“Dawn is coming. Mistress Shen might as well follow me back.”

Shen Hua felt embarrassed.

Although she did not know Cui Yun’s identity, she knew that he was not an ordinary person.

It was indeed inconvenient to stay here for long.

Did Cui Yun see what she did?

Was he sending her to the government, or was he not reporting her and deliberately covering up for her?

Shen Hua’s thoughts were a mess. She hesitated for a moment before reluctantly following.

She wanted to sound Cui Yun out.

Shen Hua walked slowly, and Cui Yun did not have any intention of slowing down to wait for her.

He strolled leisurely in the courtyard, as old-fashioned as an old man walking with his hands behind his back.

As he moved, he had the elegance and calmness of a young master from an aristocratic family.

Yi Cui had never seen Cui Yun before, so she looked worried. Before she could ask, Shen Hua caught up with her in small steps.

“Benefactor is also taking a walk?”

Cui Yun said nothing.

“What a coincidence. Me too.”

“It seems that the front of the Dong family’s house is the best place to walk around at night to digest food,” Shen Hua said calmly.

Cui Yun did not give her a chance to breathe.

“Your excuse is really a little lame.”

Shen Hua was speechless.

Her shoulders drooped and she looked listless. She said in a low voice, “Benefactor, do you see that coffin?”

Cui Yun made a sound from his throat.

“Yes.”

Shen Hua pursed her lips. “I spilled the blood, but I didn’t dig the coffin. A person who could do such a terrible thing must be extremely dirty and wretched. You can’t blame this on me. ”

She would admit to what she had done, but she would not admit what she had not.

However, there were no outsiders around, so she probably could not explain himself.

“I know.” Cui Yun said lightly.

Shen Hua was speechless.

She was surprised.

“You and I don’t know each other. This is the second time we’ve met. I didn’t expect my noble character and elegant integrity to be violated in front of my benefactor.”

Cui Yun stopped.

His eyes were deep as he looked at Shen Hua.

Shen Hua stuttered.

She didn’t forget to praise him. “Benefactor, you have good eyesight.

“I was so scared that my hair stood on end. No matter who is lying in the coffin, it is a terrible thing.”

“It’s Dong Hui.”

“How do you know it’s him?”

Cui Yun’s lips moved.

“Because I asked someone to dig him up.”

Shen Hua slowly raised her hand and covered her heart with her trembling hands.
