Chapter 417
"Little brother, what did you say?" Ji Nuan opened her eyes wide, fearing that she had heard it wrong.
Ye Hanshi coughed lightly: "I happen to have the antidote for 'Drunken Beauty' in my hand, you can give it to her as a tonic. If she is willing to take it, it's your best effort."
What he didn't finish was that if the other party didn't want to eat, it would be her life.
After all, it's just a first-time acquaintance, few people will give others tonics, even if they do, whether the other party will take it is another matter.
But the silly girl obviously didn't think about this, only hearing that it could save people, she happily took his hand and kept shaking it: "Little brother, you are so kind, I knew you were a good person!"
Ye Hanshi's eyes flickered, seeing the girl's bright smiling face, he almost sneered - he, is he a good person?
In this world, she is probably the only one who thinks like this.
Ji Nuan didn't know what the girl beside her was thinking, but felt that the little brother's eyes seemed a little strange and cold, as if he was mocking her.
She couldn't help restraining her movements, stood up straight and looked at him: "Little brother, did I say something wrong?"
The girl's innocent and clean eyes made Ye Han feel a strong anxiety inexplicably, he really wanted to destroy everything for her, and let her stop looking at him with such dependent eyes, it would make him... go crazy .
His throat knuckle rolled up and down, and when the girl seemed to open her mouth to say something, he suddenly raised his hand to cover her eyes.
Ji Nuan froze for a moment.
Her eyes were covered with warmth and darkness, she subconsciously wanted to pull down the boy's hand, but he grabbed it: "Don't move."
Ye Hanshi's voice was low and hoarse, coming towards him with strong hostility and oppression.
Ji Nuan subconsciously closed her mouth, and the soft eyelashes brushed the boy's palm lightly, making his heart tremble.
Ye Han stared fixedly at the small cherry mouth and sharp jaw under his men, and it took him a long time to suppress the sudden surge of hostility in his chest.
He let go of his hand, turned his back to the girl: "This is the antidote, you take it to save people first, I have something urgent to deal with, and I will come back when it is resolved."
"What's the matter?" Ji Nuan hurriedly took the medicine bottle thrown in mid-air, and wanted to ask clearly, but he had already jumped out of the high wall and disappeared.
Ji Nuan was even more at a loss, and could only ask the system: "What's wrong with my little brother? Was he mad at me just now?"
But how did she offend him?
She doesn't know at all.
"I don't know either. The host can ask him after he comes back."
The system's answer is equivalent to no answer, and Ji Nuan doesn't want to bother with it.
She could only think for herself, by the way, go back to find her cousin first, to deliver the antidote to the county magistrate's wife, and she needs her cousin's help.
As for the murderer, let's wait for the little brother to come back first.
Ji Nuan turned and left, but what she didn't know was that the boy who left in front of her didn't actually go far.
He stood under the flower wall, pressing his throbbing chest with one hand, his long jet-black hair hanging down from it, covering his beautiful face.
There are thick black inks in the boy's eyes, and he must, make a decision quickly.
Although Xu Ruowei was a little surprised by Ji Nuan's "care" for the county magistrate's wife, she did not refuse.
Because she knows that although her little cousin is willful, she is very kind, and the Ji family loves her, so the things that come out of her hands are definitely not bad.
So she became the middleman and sent the "tonic" to the county magistrate's wife.
Ji Nuan originally wanted to go by herself, and used herself as an example to persuade the county magistrate's wife to use the medicine, but the system reminded her that things are always reversed, and being too eager may cause the other party's suspicion.
She had no choice but to give up and chose to let her cousin send it, while she concentrated on waiting for her little brother to come back soon.
Xiaoqing sent the medicine bowl out, and when she came back, she saw her young lady sitting at the door in a daze, she came up and asked her: "Miss, what's wrong with you, what are you thinking about?"
Ji Nuan regained consciousness and saw that it was her, and was disappointed for another moment, but quickly covered it up: "I didn't think about anything, I just looked at the scenery. The flowers over there are quite beautiful."
Xiaoqing glanced at the bare laurel tree opposite, nodded reluctantly: "Well, it's not bad."
Ji Nuan couldn't help but smile: "Cousin hasn't come back yet?"
"Well, Miss Biao is still in the yard of the county magistrate's wife."
"Then... what about my cousin-in-law? Have you come back?"
When Ji Nuan said this, her ears almost perked up.
Xiaoqing saw it in his eyes, and didn't have the heart to expose her. Anyway, as long as the lady is happy, it will be fine: "My cousin sent a message back from his servants. He is eating outside, so that Miss Biao doesn't have to wait for him. The county magistrate Du seems to be saying the same thing. Yes, I also told my servants not to forget to stew bird’s nest for the county magistrate’s wife.”
Ji Nuan was just listening, but she couldn't help raising her head when she heard this: "How do you know this?"
Xiaoqing realized subconsciously: "When I chatted with the little girls in the government office, they told me."
It is also one of Xiaoqing's specialties to quickly break into the crowd and obtain powerful information without going to a place.
Ji Nuan remembered and laughed too. She looked at Xiaoqing like she was looking at a baby:
"Honey, there is one thing I want you to help with. See if you can do it."
"Eh?" Xiaoqing froze inexplicably, "Miss, don't laugh like that, I'm a little scared..."
Xiaoqing was arranged by Ji Nuan to go to the backyard to inquire about the news. Although she is not sure whether the county magistrate's family has anything to do with the kidnapping case, it is always right to know more.
And she also slowly calmed down, thinking that she couldn't just sit around and wait for clues to come to her door.
Although the little brother "runs away", can she do something else?
For example, ask for some clues or something.
So not long after Xiaoqing left the mansion, she recruited the head of the guard and asked him to arrange a few smart and talkative men to go to the street to inquire about the "Youfenglai" inn.
The chief guard was as puzzled as Xiaoqing, but he accepted the order in agreement.
Anyway, the lady is the master, and if the lady asks, they will definitely do it well!
Seeing the person leave, Ji Nuan quietly asked the system: "Is there any reminder for me?"
The system was quiet for a while, and just when Ji Nuan thought that the other party ignored her again, the system's voice came belatedly:
"There is a reminder, but it's not about the case, but about improving the favorability. The system detected that during this trip to Anzhou, the target [Ye Hanshi] to be captured will be a bloody disaster. Does the host choose to [block it for him]?" Disaster】? If you succeed, you will get 5% favorability, which will make your strategy mission smoother."
"Eh, a bloody disaster?" Ji Nuan never thought it would be this, she thought that after the death of her adoptive father, her little brother would not be injured anymore.
"Host, do you want to choose?" The system's urging sounded.
Ji Nuan took a breath, gritted her teeth and chose "Agree".
