Chapter 245: Chapter 242: Ruan Mian Draws Him Closer and Whispers in His Ear

"Ruan... Miss Ruan, who exactly... exactly are you? We have no grievances, why have you come here?"

"No grievances, you say." Ruan Mian chuckled, kicked his ear in front of him, her eyes turning cold, as piercing as the wind in deep winter.

"It was your doing that helped Ruan Jiao become the Commandery Princess, wasn’t it?"

Li Mao dared not ponder further, nodding quickly: "Miss Ruan, spare me! Spare me! I will give you silver, I will give you all my silver! As long as you let me see a doctor."

"Mr. Li seems to have forgotten, I am the doctor. However... I have a small request, if you..."

Before Ruan Mian could finish, Li Mao hastily agreed: "I agree, I agree to everything!! Miss Ruan, just say it, whatever you say I will agree to!"

Seeing this, Ruan Mian leaned closer and whispered something to him.

After she safely left the room with Xiza, Xiza, feeling frightened, clutched Ruan Mian’s arm and repeatedly thanked her.

Seeing her trembling all over, Ruan Mian guessed it was a stress response to the past events, so she held her hand and smiled slightly.

"Don’t worry, as long as I’m here."

Lisi saw them and immediately rushed over, anxiously checking on Xiza, and her worried heart only settled after seeing she was safe.

Afterward, Ruan Mian took them back to the house and asked Lisi to handle a task for her.

The next day, at the General Mansion.

Ruan Jiao was dissatisfied with the food, lost her temper in front of the old maid.

Mrs. Leng observed, suppressed her emotions, and stepped forward to speak.

"Hui’er, you’ve been staying in the mansion all these days, haven’t gone out to relax at all. I heard that Lisi’s orchard has borne fruit, why don’t we go take a look?"

Ruan Jiao sneered internally, unwilling in her eyes: "Mother, what’s so interesting about those fruits? We might as well go to a restaurant outside for a proper meal."

Mrs. Leng sighed, considering Lisi was still waiting outside, and agreed.

"Alright, it’s good for you to get out of the mansion and relax."

Early today, Lisi came to inquire, suggesting that Hui’er go out, which might improve her mood.

Mrs. Leng thought about how she had been having various tempers in the mansion these days, thinking maybe it was time for some fresh air.

Hence, she took her out of the mansion.

Since Ruan Jiao became the Commandery Princess, she always had a grand entourage whenever she went out, with top-quality carriages and a dozen servants following.

In the small town, everyone knew the esteemed daughter of General Hu Lie.

Perhaps after going out, her mood did improve a bit, Ruan Jiao pretended again in front of Mrs. Leng, like a dutiful daughter, considerately asking about her matters.

She even apologized for her previous recklessness: "Mother, it’s all my fault, I haven’t been myself, daughter has been... very sad, that’s why I unintentionally clashed with you."

"Mother, you won’t blame me, will you?"

Mrs. Leng watched her daughter soften up and would never truly blame her.

Tightly holding her hand, she spoke meaningfully: "Hui’er, mother knows you are heartbroken, but your father will handle the engagement, we won’t let you fall into that trap again."

"To think that the Heir Mu Ren is even worse than a beast, causing my daughter such grievance."

Ruan Jiao leaned affectionately on Mrs. Leng’s shoulder, genuinely speaking.

"Mother, daughter doesn’t mind, as long as I can be with you, see you all safe and sound, I can endure any suffering."

"Even if... even if someone wants my life, that’s fine."

"Hui’er! Don’t speak recklessly!"

Mrs. Leng feared her words might become true, hurriedly covering her mouth.

However, just at this moment, the carriage suddenly stopped! With a neigh of horses, chaos ensued inside and outside the carriage. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

"What’s going on?!"

Ruan Jiao, displeased, lifted the curtain, seeing several men in black wielding weapons charging at the carriage!

"Ah... Help! Help!! Robbers are going to kill!"

A servant shouted in anger, and everyone present was so scared they scattered, while the leading masked man pierced through the side of the carriage! The sharp blade stabbed directly into the carriage.

Ruan Jiao’s face drastically changed in fear.

The maid beside quickly supported Mrs. Leng: "Madam, madam, we need to go quickly!"

But another sword blocked their path.

Realizing something was wrong, Ruan Jiao kicked the coachman away, pushed aside the blocking Mrs. Leng, and jumped out of the carriage without hesitation.

"Hui’er!"

Mrs. Leng was shocked, hastily calling out to her, but Ruan Jiao didn’t care, she turned and ran.

Who knew whom these bandits were targeting!

Should she stay and wait to die?!

"Hui’er!!"

Before Mrs. Leng could finish, a masked man dragged her out of the carriage.

"Miss Commandery Princess, your mother is in our hands, do you intend to let her die without saving her?"

Ruan Jiao was blocked, forced to turn back, warily staring at the group of bandits!

"Who are you?! Since you know who we are, aren’t you afraid my father will have your heads cut off?! How audacious!"

"Hui’er, Hui’er, go quickly, don’t mind mother..."

The leading man immediately gagged Mrs. Leng, sneering.

"No matter who I am, if the Commandery Princess stays, I’ll let your mother and maid go, if you..."

However, before he could finish, Ruan Jiao turned and mounted a horse, leaving without looking back!

Mrs. Leng was shocked, although she hoped her daughter would leave safely, that decisive, indifferent back that didn’t even glance at her, stabbed her deeply.

Wasn’t it just said that as long as mother was safe, even sacrificing herself would be fine?

Even the maid was surprised, looking at her lady with a pained expression.

"Madam... how could Miss..."

Mrs. Leng’s eyes dimmed, feeling her consciousness blur.

She forced herself to open her heavy eyelids, wanting to muster the last bit of strength to resist, but at this moment, a familiar figure knelt before her.

"Madam! Madam!"

Ruan Mian and Lisi rushed over with some people, exchanged looks between the two groups, and pretended to drive them away after a brief exchange.

Mrs. Leng finally fainted in Xiza’s arms.

Lisi whispered: "Sister Mianmian, what do we do now? Why did madam faint? I specifically told those people to be careful, not to really hurt madam."

"Don’t worry, she probably fainted from shock. Let’s return to the Prince Mansion before Ruan Jiao gets back."

Ruan Jiao has always been a selfish person, a little test and her true colors will show.

At this moment, she probably isn’t going back to the Prince Mansion for reinforcements immediately, but thinking about how to get rid of the person chasing her.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Ruan Mian and the others took Mrs. Leng back to the Prince Mansion.

They fed her some spiritual spring water and prepared a calming herbal remedy, instructing the servants to brew it.
