"Please continue the feast. Our third young lady has always been very filial, so I'm afraid she won't be able to come to the banquet today. Let's enjoy ourselves to the fullest."
The courtyard became lively again, filled with eating, drinking, playing, and chatting. Even without Hai Ling and Du Caiyue, the banquet seemed even more harmonious.
In the darkness, Hailing led Rouge, Kexin, and several maids serving in Qinfang Courtyard in a grand procession toward the back. The further they went, the more secluded and quiet it became. At this point, Hailing calmed down. Tonight's events were indeed a bit strange. Her mother's health had always been good, and she rarely needed to relieve herself due to a cold stomach, let alone faint. Even if she had been given laxatives like croton, she wouldn't faint so quickly unless she had diarrhea all night or half the night. That's pretty much the situation.
So this is a trap. With that thought, Hailin's eyes shone brightly and pierced Kexin, who was leading the way. Although Kexin didn't look behind her, she still sensed Hailin's gaze as soon as it fell on her. She immediately became extremely nervous, and her palms were covered in cold sweat.
What to do now? Hai Ling's mind raced, and suddenly a smile appeared on her lips. No matter what, did she still have to be afraid of the people sent by Miss Jiang and Madam Liu?
Hai Ling had thought it through. She followed Ke Xin silently toward Qin Fang Courtyard, listening carefully to the sounds around her. Sure enough, she sensed an unusual aura in the shadows and heard the branches swaying without any wind. It seemed that someone had been sent. Good, very good.
A bloodthirsty glint flashed in her eyes, but the words that came out of her mouth were gentle.
"Kexin, did Fourth Madam really faint? Is she really unconscious?"
"Miss, this servant?"
Hearing Hailing's words, Kexin almost blurted out in fear that it had nothing to do with her. It was Madam who sent Sister Hongba to give the order, and if she didn't do it, she would die.
However, her inner monologue lasted only a second before she calmly replied, "Yes, Miss, the Fourth Madam has indeed fainted. I helped her to Qinfang Courtyard. Don't worry, Miss, the doctor will be here soon."
"Hmm," Hai Ling stopped talking. It wasn't that she didn't give Ke Xin and the others a chance; she did. But they didn't cherish it, so they shouldn't blame her.
Perhaps she should let the people of the Jiang family know what kind of Jiang Hailing is the real Jiang Hailing.
The group walked through the dark path and returned to Qinfang Courtyard. After they entered Qinfang Courtyard...
Hailing immediately sensed something unusual. The maid following behind them closed the door to Qinfang Courtyard as soon as she entered, and the entire courtyard was quiet without a sound. Not only Hailing, but also Yanzhi, who was following closely behind her, felt the different atmosphere and couldn't help but become nervous. She quietly reached out and grabbed Hailing's hand to remind her mistress that there might be a trap. Hailing grabbed her hand in return, and she immediately understood that her mistress knew everything.
Once the master and servant had made up their minds, they carefully began to observe their surroundings.
Suddenly, a powerful aura of malevolence surged up from the surroundings, and several beams of light flew in from outside the low courtyard wall, heading straight for Hailing and Yanzhi.
At the same time, Kexin, who was walking in front, and Xiaoxiang, Xiuying, and Yelan behind her suddenly retreated and quickly ran to the side, making room for each other.
Hailing and Yanzhi could tell at a glance that these girls all knew about tonight's event, and the two of them couldn't help but sneer.
Hai Ling reached out and pulled Yan Zhi away quickly from the beams of light. Once they were in position, she commanded in a deep voice, "Yan Zhi, take care of yourself."
"Yes, Miss."
Rouge responded and quickly moved to the side, finding a good spot to stand. She knew that as long as she didn't become a burden to her mistress, everything would be fine.
Hai Ling pursed her lips and let out a cold laugh: "Fire Cloud Boots, Wind and Thunder Gloves."
With a flash of golden light, two pieces of equipment appeared on her body. The men in black were already close. Hai Ling dodged with a swift movement, her fist flashing out like lightning, fast as lightning, its dark light gleaming. With one punch, a painful cry rang out; one man, already struck, was sent flying, his tall body tumbling three meters away before crashing to the ground wit
