Rêve de Jiangshan - Chapitre 66
Mu Wenchen hesitated several times, wanting to ask Ru Feng why she had become like this, but in the end, he could only let out a long sigh and could not ask any questions.
Soon, they arrived at the Yuchi residence, and the crowd gradually thinned out. Ru Feng lowered her head and muttered, "Goodbye." Before she finished speaking, she had already turned around and was about to step into the doorway.
Mu Wenchen quickly grabbed Ru Feng's arm and whispered, "Ru Feng, I have something to tell you."
Ru Feng slightly raised her eyes, glared at Mu Wenchen with a wronged expression, and said, "Speak." She was extremely frustrated, probably because she knew Mu Wenchen was gay. Such a good man, alas, the vast majority of women are not so lucky.
"Ru Feng, you're going to another place tomorrow. If we want to meet, we'll have to wait until after your school starts in half a month." Mu Wenchen said in one breath, staring intently at Ru Feng's reaction.
As expected, Ru Feng didn't disappoint Mu Wenchen's feelings, jumping up and shouting, "What? You're leaving? We haven't even known each other for very long!"
Mu Wenchen patiently explained, "I still have things to do. I've been in Yuezhou City long enough already, and I can't delay any longer. It's okay, we can meet again after you start school. I'll ask Mu Tong to make some of your favorite dishes then, how about that?"
Ru Feng stared at him and replied, "How could it not be good? You have things to do, so of course I won't keep you here. Alright, then let's see each other again in half a month."
The two looked at each other for a while. Seeing that Mu Wenchen had nothing more to say, Ru Feng prepared to say goodbye. Unexpectedly, Mu Wenchen took her arm again and asked softly, "Ru Feng, is your injury healed? Are there any scars?"
Ru Feng blushed instantly, secretly glanced around, and whispered, "Okay, okay, don't worry, it's alright."
Mu Wenchen was at a loss for words. He was not a man of many words to begin with, and it was unusual for him to say so much tonight. So he could only watch helplessly as Ru Feng waved to him and then quickly disappeared behind the door.
Mu Wenchen stood for a while before turning around and slowly leaving the gate of the Yuchi residence.
Unseen by him, Ru Feng was actually watching the direction Mu Wenchen had left from the top of the wall, holding a lush tree branch to shield her head, her expression very unhappy.
Yu Xuan emerged from the shadows, his expression grim, and said, "What? Is our young master Ru Feng reluctant to part with his lover?"
Ru Feng nearly tripped and fell off the large rock. She glared at Yu Xuan and said, "What lover? Why did you suddenly shout and scare me?"
"Hmph, otherwise why do you look so reluctant?" Yu Xuan snorted coldly, his expression shifting between light and shadow, his eyes flickering.
As if tearing the leaves off the branch in her hand, Ru Feng said sullenly, "I had an unpleasant experience on the street today, so I'm in a bad mood. Don't mess with me!"
Yu Xuan sighed, walked over and patted Ru Feng's head, comforting him, "Shorty, don't look so gloomy, that expression doesn't suit you. By the way, do you think there's a possibility between my older brother and your sister?"
Clearly, Yu Xuan's attempt to change the subject was effective. Ru Feng decided to put aside her inexplicable frustration and focus on dealing with the problem at hand.
"Yuxuan, I saw Brother Jue and Sister together at the lantern riddle guessing game tonight. I think their relationship must have improved a lot tonight." Rufeng felt a sense of accomplishment when she recalled the scene, and the depression on her face was swept away. "It seems that I am really destined to be a matchmaker. The two of them look so well-matched. They are simply a perfect combination of a handsome man and a beautiful woman."
Seeing that Ru Feng's face was no longer gloomy, Yu Xuan breathed a sigh of relief. However, he did not agree with what Ru Feng said, but on the surface he still agreed, "I hope so."
Sigh, I just hope my brother doesn't get too deeply involved, Ru Feng... after all, Ru Feng is a man.
Yu Xuan looked closely at Ru Feng. He was of average height, but his face was quite pretty, especially his large, watery eyes, which added a touch of femininity to his handsome face. A red mole on his forehead added a touch of charm. At first glance, one might think he was a woman, but upon closer inspection, his flat figure and prominent Adam's apple clearly indicated that he was indeed a woman. Moreover, during their last test, Wu Yan had actually managed to grab the man's "vital parts," so there was no way to deceive herself.
However, why did the older brother get involved? And it seems that the relationship between the headmaster and Rufeng is not simple either.
Yu Xuan was pondering when he saw Ru Feng break into a big smile and say, "Hehe, Brother Jue and Sister are back. Let's go see them."
Yu Xuan was startled and momentarily lost his senses, but he quickly came to his senses and thought to himself: So that's how it is. No wonder my brother, who has seen countless beauties, looks at Ru Feng with special regard!
Ru Feng didn't notice what Yu Xuan was thinking. She grabbed Yu Xuan's sleeve and ran to the temple where Yu Jue and Ru Xue had just entered. She chuckled and said, "You're back?"
To Ru Feng's surprise, the two main characters in front of him didn't look too good. Ru Xue just glanced at Ru Feng and then lowered her head and said, "I'm going back to my room first."
After seeing Ru Xue leave, Yu Jue glanced at the puzzled Ru Feng, sighed, a hint of sadness flashing in his eyes, put his hands behind his back, and said, "I'm going back to my room too." After saying that, he walked forward with his head held high and did not look back.
Ru Feng scratched his head, puzzled, and looked at Yu Xuan with a question: "Yu Xuan, why is everyone acting so strangely today?"
The candidate's expression was also unpleasant. He glanced at Ru Feng with an inscrutable look, shook his head, and left, leaving Ru Feng standing there in a daze.
Just then, Lin Yilan and Yuchi Song returned. They were smiling, but their faces darkened as soon as they saw Rufeng standing at the door.
Ru Feng hurriedly asked, feeling wronged, "Father, Mother, what's wrong with you?"
Lin Yilan pinched Ru Feng's smooth cheek hard and said, "You'll have a good show to watch tomorrow. Sigh, I hope you don't suffer too much."
Ru Feng was completely bewildered and looked to Yu Chi Song for help. Yu Chi Song had a soft heart, so he smiled gently and said, "It's alright, it should be fine, don't worry."
Upon hearing this, Ru Feng became even more worried, because usually when his father said everything was fine, things would turn out to be very serious.
That night, Ru Feng barely slept, and when he practiced martial arts with Yu Chi Huaiyang in the morning, he was listless.
After delivering a set of punches, Yu Chi Huaiyang glanced at Ru Feng and asked, "What were you doing last night?"
Ru Feng laughed it off: "It's nothing, it's nothing. I just ate too much last night, so I couldn't sleep."
Yu Chi Huaiyang snorted and said nothing more, which relieved Ru Feng.
However, Ru Feng relaxed too soon. After breakfast, Yu Jue and Yu Xuan left in a hurry, and Ru Xue did not come out to eat breakfast either. Ru Feng knew that something was wrong, but he could not ask Ru Xue directly at the moment, so he could only wait until he went to the academy to ask her.
After dinner, Yu Chi Huaiyang assigned Ru Feng a lot of tasks, keeping her so busy that she forgot about Ru Xue's matter. Finally, after several days of exhaustion, Lin Yilan revealed that someone had reported to Yu Chi Huaiyang that Ru Feng had acted intimately and improperly with a man on the night of the Lantern Festival.
Ru Feng suddenly realized why her grandfather had given her so many things to do and had made her familiar with the military camp early on. However, she also felt a little guilty, so she silently endured it.
Perhaps because of Rufeng's good performance, in the last few days before going to school, Rufeng finally had some free time, but he was no longer interested in going out to play. He stayed at home obediently to read and write, living a leisurely life like Yuchi Song.
On the day of her departure for the academy, Ru Feng, contrary to her usual self, excitedly packed her luggage. After bidding farewell to her reluctant family, she set off alone for the academy, riding Jing Feng, who had automatically returned.
Fengxian Academy in Yuezhou City
Mu Wenchen asked in a deep voice, "We've been gone for so many days, has there been any movement here?"
"Reporting to Your Majesty, the entire academy has been searched, but they still haven't found anything," Mu Tong replied respectfully.
"Oh, so you've found out which factions are involved?" Mu Wenchen's expression was stern as he lightly tapped the table with his right hand.
