step by step

Chapter 35

Ye Zhaoyan knew in his heart that this place should be the man's territory.

He was wearing a white and elegant gown with a jade belt around his waist, which wrapped his strong and slender figure inside, making him look even more majestic and extraordinary.

"I'm about to go home, and accidentally strayed into this place, who is your Excellency?" Ye Zhaoyan turned to look at the man and asked politely.

Zhuo Mingxuan stared at Ye Zhaoyan, and said coldly, "At this moment, there are many people in the east and west alleys of the city looking for something."

Ye Zhaoyan's eyelids twitched slightly when he heard this.

No wonder when they met that group of people just now, their actions hesitated. It turned out that they ran into another team.

"Second Young Master! Miss, she" At this time, a guard in Tsing Yi ran over and was shocked when he saw Ye Zhaoyan.

"What's the matter?" The man looked at the Tsing Yi guard and asked.

The guard in Tsing Yi hurriedly said: "Miss brought the young master back, the young master was seriously injured!"

When Ye Zhaoyan heard this, he was startled.

No wonder she thought the wall looked familiar.

Unexpectedly, after going around and going around, he returned to Zhuo Wang's Mansion, and sneaked in from the backyard over the fence.

"Yu Xin, take me to see him." Zhuo Mingxuan frowned slightly upon hearing this.

Yu Xin nodded, leaned closer to the man in white shirt and whispered something in his ear, then turned around and walked ahead to lead the way.

The man in the white shirt looked at Ye Zhaoyan solemnly.

Ye Zhaoyan's pupils suddenly tightened, and he also became nervous.

He hesitated for a moment, and then followed behind the guard in blue.

"My subordinates said that there is a woman in a blue robe who sent my brother home. Do you know where she is?" the man in white said indifferently.

"I know." Ye Zhaoyan said.

He couldn't help turning his head to look at Ye Zhaoyan again.

Ye Zhaoyan smiled at him and said, "It's me."

The white shirted man looked at Ye Zhaoyan, glanced at her clothes, with a hint of surprise in his eyes.

I didn't expect her to admit it generously.

"You are making trouble in front of my mansion, you have a lot of guts!"

He said sarcastically.

"Are you the son of the Zhuo Palace?" Ye Zhaoyan asked.

The white-clothed man glanced at her silently, and said, "The second son of the Zhuo Mansion, Zhuo Mingxuan."

The tone was very magnanimous, and there was a taste of the wind and the moon.

Ye Zhaoyan was slightly taken aback when he heard his words, and then said, "I definitely don't mean to run into your house, it's really urgent."

Ye Zhaoyan's attitude was neither humble nor overbearing, neither arrogant nor impetuous, which made Zhuo Mingxuan look at her more.

After a moment of silence, Zhuo Mingxuan continued to speak slowly, "What's urgent?"

"My Zhuo Yibai and I were attacked by gangsters, and we were both seriously injured. Before he was poisoned and passed out, he asked me to take him back to his residence." Ye Zhaoyan looked at Zhuo Mingxuan and explained seriously.

She did make a fuss on purpose in front of Zhuo Wang's Mansion before.

In order to attract the attention of the group of people, she even beat up a few people so that they could detain her in the mansion.
In this way, she can use the name of Zhuo Wangfu to let Yefu come to pick her up and go back safely.

However, she did not expect Zhuo Tianxin to be so vigilant and full of hostility towards her.

In this way, this method will not work, and if you reveal your identity again, you will send the key to Zhuo Tianxin's hands, which is very inappropriate.

When Zhuo Mingxuan heard this, his eyes flickered, making it hard to see what was really going on in his heart.

Ye Zhaoyan was not sure that Zhuo Mingxuan could believe what she said.

After staring at her for a while, Zhuo Mingxuan said, "Since you saved my younger brother, you are the benefactor of my Zhuo family, so you don't need to climb over the fence anymore, just go in with me directly!" Zhuo Ming After Xuan finished speaking, he turned and walked out.

Ye Zhaoyan couldn't help but be surprised when he heard what he said.

She didn't expect this man to be willing to take her in.

This made her feel strange.

Ye Zhaoyan hesitated for a moment, followed him into the yard.

The lights in the yard were burning brightly, and there were many people gathered.

As soon as Ye Zhaoyan stepped into the courtyard, countless eyes fell on her, including contempt, ridicule, and curiosity.

"Second Young Master! Something happened!" A guard rushed in and knelt down in front of Zhuo Mingxuan.

"What's so flustered?" Zhuo Mingxuan frowned.

Hearing this, the guard lowered his head tremblingly and said: "Second Young Master, there is a group of people gathered outside the door, saying that our Zhuo Palace has harbored assassins!"

Seeing this, Ye Zhaoyan vaguely guessed what was going on.

"assassin?"

Zhuo Mingxuan was shocked when he heard these two words.

He took a deep look at Ye Zhaoyan, and said coldly: "As an assassin, why did you come to our mansion? Could it be that they thought this mansion was opened by their family?"

Ye Zhaoyan's heart skipped a beat.

This man is testing himself.

If she hadn't expected this situation a long time ago, he might have seen it through.

Ye Zhaoyan was thinking secretly in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face, and remained calm.

The guard tremblingly said: "The villain doesn't know why that group of people broke in suddenly! Moreover, they said, they saw people coming in with their own eyes!"

Zhuo Mingxuan's face became gloomy upon hearing this.

He had a hunch in his heart that those people were coming for the woman in front of him.

Although he was reluctant to believe that she would do such a thing, he did have a trace of doubt.

After all, just now, he witnessed her flying down from the wall and the eaves.

He looked up at Ye Zhaoyan.

I saw Ye Zhaoyan's expression was calm, with a faint smile on his face all the time.

He sighed inwardly.

Forget it, since his younger brother has been involved in this matter, let him handle it!
Zhuo Mingxuan was about to speak, but Ye Zhaoyan interrupted him first.

"Second Young Master, I'm seriously injured. Please stay for a few quarters of an hour, and leave immediately after I've bandaged the wound. I'll definitely come to thank you in the future." Ye Zhaoyan looked at Zhuo Mingxuan and said.

If they were sent out as assassins, they would naturally capture themselves mercilessly. How would they give themselves a chance to argue?

She can't take a chance, so she must try her best to find a chance.

After Ye Zhaoyan finished speaking, he didn't dare to look at Zhuo Mingxuan's face, and lowered his head, pretending to be ill.

She didn't dare to bet that the other party would refuse.

Zhuo Mingxuan raised his eyebrows lightly when he heard the words: "Go and deal with the injury first, and then I will arrange someone to send you away."

In fact, he didn't really want her to go, after all, he still wanted to get the truth about Zhuo Yibai's injury from her mouth.

More importantly, from what Yu Xin had just heard, he learned that the thing that Zhuo Yibai escorted had disappeared.

It would be fine if the box was picked up by ordinary people, after all, it looks really simple, but if it is just in case...

He didn't dare to gamble, so he could only stabilize the person in front of him who was most likely to know the clue.

"Okay, there is the second son!" Ye Zhaoyan responded respectfully.

"Second Young Master, look, should we invite them in?" the guard asked in a low voice.

Zhuo Mingxuan waved his hand.

With a decision in his heart, he looked around and ordered the guards: "Go to the front yard and pass my order in front of those people, ordering them to strictly investigate the assassin's whereabouts in the mansion!"
