The room was very big and wide, the decorations were exquisite and every part of the room gave off a dreamy aura. She was in a trance, as if she was in a fairy tale, if not for the Aunt Yun and the few familiar maid faces reminding her that she was in Huangfu Courtyard, she would have had the illusion.
Su Jingya just sat on the big bed with her small hands tightly grabbing onto the bed sheets. With her big eyes, she stared at Aunt Yun without blinking, as if she had no intention to speak.
After going around so much, she finally came back to this place.
Su Jingya's breathing grew hurried. Every single cell in her body, and every single nerve in her body, seemed as if they were being fiercely pressured by a layer of chilliness and an unknown formless object, causing her to unconsciously tremble.
Aunt Yun noticed that Su Jingya's expression was abnormal and was extremely frightened. She immediately went up and asked: "Young Madam, are you alright? Is your body not feeling well? "
Only now did Su Jingya notice that the way Aunt Yun addressed her had changed. In the past, Aunt Yun would always call her: Miss Su.
Shaking her head, she whispered, "I'm fine, fine! With so many people in the room, I feel very uncomfortable! "
"This is the one that Young Master has specially arranged to wait for you to wake up in the morning. Look, Young Master has treated you so well!" There was no doubt that the Aunt Yun was a very smart person. She felt that there was a conflict between Huangfu Yu and himself and thus, hurriedly tried to make the most of it.
When Su Jingya heard this, he bit her lips and did not say anything. Aunt Yun endured it a little before carefully asking, "Young Mistress, do you not like it? Then I … Tell them to step down! "
After saying that, the Aunt Yun turned around and gave the two rows of maids a look. They immediately put down the things in their hands and carefully and quietly left the room.
After they had all pushed him down, Aunt Yun opened her blanket and tried to help Su Jingya out of his bed, but Su Jingya quickly said: "Aunt Yun, no need to trouble yourself, I will get off the bed by myself!"
Su Jingya hurriedly jumped off the bed. Without wearing her slippers, she ran into the bathroom.
Seeing that, Aunt Yun shouted anxiously: "Young Mistress, shoes! If you are barefoot, it is easy for you to get sick! "
Su Jingya went back to put on her shoes and went back to the bathroom. When she closed the door, she realised that the Aunt Yun seemed to want to follow them in, so she quickly stopped them: "Aunt Yun, I do not need anyone to attend to me.
Aunt Yun felt a bit embarrassed, but in the end, she nodded and smiled: "Alright, I'll go downstairs first to busy myself with other things. On the table, there was a stew and some snacks. These were all ordered by Young Master before he went to the company. Young madam, you should remember to wash up, eat the tonic, and also eat some snacks to fill your stomach. Young Master will go to the company to settle some urgent matters, and will be back a little late! "
Su Jingya nodded her head, and then closed the bathroom door with a 'bang'.
She pressed her ear to the door and listened for sounds outside. When she heard the door close, she immediately opened the bathroom door, ran to the door, carefully opened it, and peeked into the empty hallway. She bit her lip and ran down the stairs.
However, just as she turned the corner, she saw four burly bodyguards standing straight on the stairs, looking like statues, not moving at all.
Frowning, Su Jingya turned and ran towards the other exit.
However … There were also bodyguards on the other stairs.
It was obvious that Huangfu Yu spent a lot of effort to insert so many bodyguards, so as to not let her escape.
As she returned to her room dejectedly, it seemed as if Su Jingya had lost all of her strength and was powerlessly sitting on the sofa.
When her eyes caught the fluttering curtains, her dim eyes immediately flashed. She rushed to the window and looked down. Her bright eyes instantly dimmed again. "Huu."
I wanted to climb out the window and run away, but... Putting aside the fact that her room was on the fifth floor, even with her skill, she was still in a difficult position. That damned Huangfu Yu, he actually managed to control a bodyguard below.
A bodyguard stood a meter away from Su Jingya. Standing downstairs, he surrounded the entire house, and immediately, Su Jingya was discouraged, as if she was unable to escape.
He sat dispiritedly on the sofa, holding back his tears.
She really didn't understand what Huangfu Yu was trying to do. What was the purpose of capturing her and bringing her back to the Huangfu Courtyard? Were they really planning to imprison him for the rest of his life?
Didn't he torture her enough?
Why did you do this to her?
Su Jingya curled her skinny body into the sofa and buried his face deep between her knees. Her hair that was as smooth as ink poured down, completely covering the expression on her face.
She did not wash, change her clothes, eat, speak, or move. She stayed in her room for the entire afternoon.
After Huangfu Yu settled the company's affairs, he also finished all the orders for the past month's work, and rushed back to Huangfu Courtyard.
Just as he entered the hall, the Aunt Yun came over to welcome him. "Lord Young Master, you're back!"
"En!" Huangfu Yu expressionlessly let out a grunt, and went upstairs in large strides. Aunt Yun followed closely behind him jogging, Huangfu Yu asked in a low voice, "How is she today? When did you wake up? "
"When the young madam woke up, it was already close to one in the afternoon. His complexion wasn't bad, but she had been staying in the room. She seemed to reject servants from serving her. I didn't dare disturb her, so …"
"It's fine now. Go prepare dinner and send her back to her room!"
"Yes sir!" Hearing Huangfu Yu's order, the Aunt Yun stopped in his tracks and watched as his figure disappeared up the stairs.
Huangfu Yu went up to the fifth floor and wandered outside of the door. After hesitating for a long time, he did not push open the door to enter. The current him was very contradictory and conflicted. He didn't know how to face her or how to treat her in any way. Every time he saw her and saw how she rejected him, he would go crazy with rage.
In fact, it wasn't just the knot in her heart that made him feel uncomfortable.
The girl he had always said he would protect, the girl he had always wanted to take care of, the girl who had given her the best things in the world, he had become the one who hurt her the most.
Huangfu Yu lingered outside for a long time, took off his jacket, placed it in the crook of his arm, then irritably loosened his tie and undid the two buttons on his shirt collar. Only then did he feel that his breathing became a little smoother.
Having gathered all of his courage, Huangfu Yu pushed open the door and his low voice sounded out: "… "Jingya …"
At almost the same instant he pushed open the door, his gaze was locked on the woman who was curled up on the sofa in front of the window.
The red sunset shone onto her tiny body, covering it with a layer of dreamy gold. Huangfu Yu stood at the door, staring at the beautiful yet desolate and sorrowful scene in front of him, frozen for a moment.
buried her face in the sofa, leaning on it, as if she was asleep.
Huangfu Yu looked straight at her for a very long time before he quietly walked in. He closed the door and hung his coat on the hanger.
And the room that was full of little women, sweet and tender, had become a little masculine because of his outer coat.
