Chapter 123
"Brother Yuan." Jiang Shuyao tightened her clothes and called softly in front of Jiang Yuan's door.

In the end it was a mistake.While waiting outside the door, Jiang Shuyao let out a silent breath and rubbed her hands together.It was too cold at night.

Jiang Yuan responded quickly: "Fourth Sister?" He pushed open the door, saw Jiang Shuyao standing in the cool breeze, and quickly turned sideways to let someone in: "It's so late, is Fourth Sister still awake?"

"I can't sleep today." Jiang Shuyao thought that Jiang Yuan was reading a book, but at a glance, there were no books spread out on the table: "What is Brother Yuan doing?"

Jiang Yuan shook his head: "I'm thinking about something."

Coincidentally, she was also thinking about something.Jiang Shuyao was curious: "What happened?" What could make a schoolmaster put down his books?
Jiang Yuan really needed someone to help him think about it.He closed the door, looked left and right, felt that no one would notice, then moved closer to Jiang Shuyao, and whispered: "Fourth sister, let me tell you, don't tell others."

Still mysterious? Jiang Shuyao thought it was strange at first, and wanted to make a joke, but saw that Jiang Yuan was frowning tightly, with doubts, puzzles, and imperceptible anger.Jiang Shuyao became serious, nodded and said, "Okay. Tell me, Fourth Sister will keep it secret for you."

"It's not impossible to say." Jiang Yuan wrinkled his face in confusion, and whispered.He doesn't know what this is, but he really doesn't know what to do, and he wants to ask for help but is afraid that it will backfire.

"Huh?" Jiang Shuyao was puzzled.She didn't hear clearly.

"It's okay." Jiang Yuan shook his head.As if he had made up his mind, he took a deep breath, opened the curtain around the bed, and revealed the scene on his bed: "Fourth sister, you can see for yourself."

Jiang Shuyao covered her mouth in surprise.I saw a small lump suddenly bulging on the bed.In an instant, countless thoughts flashed through Jiang Shuyao's mind.This... looks like a humanoid?And, it hasn't come out yet.

Jiang Yuan is hiding someone?Still want to smother people to death?
Facing Jiang Shuyao's shocked gaze, Jiang Yuan was slightly embarrassed, stepped forward and exposed his head to the man, and explained: "I just heard my fourth sister call me, and I panicked, so I quickly covered the quilt."

Jiang Shuyao: ...

She looked at the man intently.Just now he could tell from the shape under the quilt that he was young, but now that he showed his face, he was indeed so.Because he had just covered his face, his small face was flushed, and there was only a little baby fat on his cheeks, and his overall face was no more than the size of a palm.The skin is still fair and tender, and the sackcloth that almost covers half of the forehead is more and more shocking.

It looks serious.Jiang Shuyao's expression was solemn, she looked at Jiang Yuan, and said in a rare anxious tone: "What's going on?" She remembered that there was no such a big child around Jiang Yuan.Besides, looking at the child's situation, it is obviously not caused by Jiang Yuan.

She stepped forward quickly and lifted the quilt, only to realize that there was more than one wound on his body.Jiang Yuan should have someone deal with this child, his hands were also covered with sackcloth, and there were obvious abrasions on his neck.

"Have you had someone treat his wound?" Jiang Shuyao asked in a low voice as the child closed his eyes and tried to hide under the quilt because of the movement of the quilt being thrown off.No, even telling her about Jiang Yuan had to be careful, according to Jiang Yuan's temperament, he would not let anyone bandage him.

Sure enough, Jiang Yuan shook his head: "No, I helped him deal with it myself."

This thing is also a bit bizarre.Jiang Yuan went out to buy books on a whim today, when he was walking on the street, a carriage drove past him.Jiang Yuan didn't care at first, but the moment he raised his head, he watched helplessly as an unknown mass got off the carriage and rushed towards him.

Jiang Yuan:?
He turned sideways subconsciously, and saw the thing hit the ground hard.Only then did Jiang Yuan realize that it was actually a four or five year old boy.

It was almost dusk at this time, there were very few people on the street, and no one noticed the movement here.Jiang Yuan stood there quietly, watching the child raise his bloody head, and said something to him silently.

Eyes are the most direct expression window of emotion.Before Jiang Yuan could react to what he said, he saw clearly the emotion expressed in his eyes.In his eyes that were not covered by blood, there was fear and begging.

What he said was, please, help me.

The carriage in front stopped quickly, as if sensing something falling, the person sitting on the shaft of the carriage came down to check.Jiang Yuan's body hugged the person in front of him before he could react, and hid sideways into the alley next to him.

Perhaps because he was in a hurry, the man only got down and glanced back in front of the carriage, and then took two steps.Jiang Yuan didn't dare to run too far to make a sound, he was right here at the entrance of the alley, hugging the child in his arms tightly, staying in a blind spot of sight, not daring to move, even closing his eyes, just listening to the sound silently.After all, some people are very sensitive to sight, and if they are a little careless, they may be discovered.

As long as the man took a few more steps, he could see the blood on the back of the carriage.Follow the bloodstains and you will find them soon.Just as Jiang Yuan held his breath and his heart was beating faster and faster, the man stopped.It may be that it is unlikely that something will fall, and soon, the footsteps sounded again, this time, but in the opposite direction.In the end, Jiang Yuan's heartbeat did not recover until the sound of the carriage gradually faded away.

Jiang Yuan was still standing quietly against the wall, he could feel the blood on the child's body gradually soaking through his clothes.Strangely, at this moment, Jiang Yuan calmed down strangely.Thankfully, he was wearing dark clothes, so even if it was stained with blood, it would not be too obvious.It's just... what should this child do?

Jiang Yuan didn't know how long he had been waiting.It was only when he was sure that the man would not return that he wrapped his coat tightly around him, protected the little boy, and left here with him in his arms.However, after that sentence was finished, the child remained silent. Jiang Yuan took a look and found that he seemed to have passed out.Helpless, Jiang Yuan could only carry him away.

After confirming the temporary safety, Jiang Yuan's heart was entwined with countless questions.What is the identity of this child?Judging by his appearance, he should be just a child from an ordinary family, so why is he in the carriage again?And why, would you jump off the carriage?

Not daring to expose this child to others easily, Jiang Yuan dared to return to the mansion only after the sky darkened.It's just that he was running fast on the way back to his yard. The servants in his yard thought he was holding a book and hurried back to the house to read it, but they didn't care, so they chased after him with a smile: "Master, please slow down." run."

Jiang Yuan had no choice but to be thankful, fortunately, there were wound medicines in his room.
