After being abandoned, Tofu Xishi broke off the relationship

The sound of his whispers behind him was very soft, but Su Ruanruan could still hear it clearly.

She laughed at herself, Su Ruanruan, ah Su Ruanruan.

Even if you cling to this man for self-protection.

But you interfered with other people's purest emotions.

How ironic! You've become the kind of person you hate the most.

She once said that she would leave Huo Yan if there was another woman around him.

She would no longer be Huo Yan's concubine, nor would she use this identity to seek Huo Yan's protection.

Without protection, she would naturally not go to the capital and Jiangnan where Prince Chu Ran of Zhennan was.

Seeing Su Ruanruan lowering her eyes and not saying anything, Niu Mang scratched his head, "Although my elder brother left in a hurry, he told me to take you to the capital after I finish dealing with things here, and also told me to take good care of you."

"Don't worry, my elder brother is loyal and righteous. When we get to the capital, we will take good care of you. You don't have to be so sad."

Su Runrun raised her eyes and looked at Niu Mang, who was much taller than him but had a somewhat naive look.

"Do you like Miss Yuan'er?"

Niu Mang was stunned. He didn't expect that she would suddenly change the subject and ask this question.

It was brought up on him again for no reason.

"I didn't, don't talk nonsense, I just treat her as my sister."

Su Ruanruan shook her head slightly. His hesitation showed that he was not saying what he meant, and perhaps he himself was not even aware of it.

Su Ruanruan obediently followed the two guards who were protecting her back.

Wrapped in soft bedding, she stared at the ceiling of the bed without blinking, wondering what her future should be.

The next day, before daybreak, the tofu shop's waiter came to look for her in a panic, but was stopped by the guards standing outside the door.

Su Ruanruan had not slept all night, and when she heard the noise, she was already wearing a cloak and going to open the door.

When she saw Su Ruanruan, the little girl named Xiu'er became excited instantly.

Su Ruanruan's heart was filled with alarm, knowing that something serious must have happened. If it was a minor matter, Ziwu would have taken care of it and would not have sent anyone else to look for her.

"Come in and talk." Su Ruanruan welcomed Xiu'er into the house.

"What's going on? Why are you in such a hurry?"

Xiu'er's face was full of anxiety, "Dongjia, Sister Ziwu is missing."

"Today, before dawn, we went to buy some goods. Sister Ziwu said she was going to the toilet and asked us to wait for her in front. But we waited for a long time and she didn't come back."

"When we went to look for her, we found Sister Ziwu's hairpin and a letter stuck in the straw outside the hut..."

"The letter says that you, the boss, should open it yourself."

Xiu'er quickly took out the letter from her sleeve and handed it to Su Ruanruan.

Su Ruanruan quickly pulled out the paper from the envelope and looked at the contents of the letter with a serious expression.

It took her a long time to recover from her shock.

"You go back first and tell all the guys and girls not to spread the news that Ziwu is missing. Just do what you need to do and everything should be as normal!"

Xiu'er said worriedly, "But Sister Ziwu..."

Su Ruanruan frowned and interrupted her. "Just do what I said. Don't say what you shouldn't say, and don't ask what you shouldn't ask. Sometimes knowing too much... may not be a good thing."

Su Runrun looked at Xiu'er's innocent and cute appearance and was extremely envious. She also wanted to live a simple life like them.

Xiu'er lowered her head, "Yes..."

After Xiu'er left, Su Runrun placed the letter in her hand in the charcoal basin and watched it being swallowed up bit by bit by the fire snake.

She leaned weakly on the chair, staring at the ashes in the charcoal basin. She slowly opened her palm, revealing half of her little finger. She had not let Xiu'er see it just now because she was afraid that she would be scared.

Su Ruanruan knew that this was Ziwu's finger, so she put the broken finger down.

Suddenly, in a rage, he pushed the teacup on the table to the ground and said, "I just want to live a simple and peaceful life, why is it so difficult!"

"Why, why!! Why is everyone against me, why…"

Su Runrun's eyes were filled with mist, and she looked so pitiful.

After a long time, she came to her senses, stood up, took out a dagger hidden in her clothes and placed it on the table.

I changed my clothes and took a bath.

Looking at the beautiful face in the bronze mirror, he looked sad.

After opening the door, Su Ruanruan went to the teahouse closest to the city gate.

Two guards were standing at the door of the box and there was no way to get rid of them.

Su Ruanruan leaned against the window, looking at the city gate in the distance.

In recent days, Qingshan County has strengthened the security at the city gates, and everyone entering and leaving must be carefully checked.

And today, Niu Mang was personally on duty supervising his subordinates' inspections.

Under such circumstances, Ziwu was abducted out of the city by a mysterious man.

The mysterious person was not afraid of Huo Yan and his group. He knew their identities and that she was Huo Yan's concubine, but he still reached out to her.

He couldn't catch her, so he reached out to Ziwu.

But how could he be so sure that she would rush into the wolf's den alone to save a maid?

The letter told her to go to the appointment alone, and that if anyone else knew the contents of the letter, he would kill Zi Wu. The half-severed finger was a warning.

He was betting on how important Zi Wu was in her heart. If she was a pure ancient person, she would never take risks for a slave.

But she couldn't, she had long regarded Ziwu as her own relative and couldn't ignore her.

Su Ruanruan took a sip of tea. At this moment, the waiter's voice was heard outside. He came to bring her some cakes.

The waiter put down a few plates of pastries, added some tea for Su Ruanruan, and then left.

Su Ruanruan ate a piece of mung bean cake. When she picked up another piece of exquisite chestnut cake and took a bite, she found a small note hidden inside.

She unfolded the rolled up note and felt a headache when she saw the contents inside.

She looked out the window. It seemed as if her every move was being monitored by someone, who was in the dark while she was in the light.

Who is that person? Niu Mang said that Prince Chu Ran, the Prince of Zhennan, had left. Could it be that he had left and returned again?

But no matter who it was, she knew she couldn't beat him.

She stared at Niu Mang, who seemed to be extremely powerful at the city gate. If she asked him for help...

However, since she has decided to stay away from Huo Yan, she should be prepared to face the storm alone.

If she doesn't come back alive this time, that will be her fate.

What's more, it's a blessing from God that her lonely soul has lived for so many more days.

In this life, she is already very satisfied to meet Mu Bai.

After coming out of the teahouse, Su Runrun went to the tofu shop and gave them some detailed instructions.

Sitting on the carriage, Su Ruanruan lined up to leave the city.

"Hey, Aunt Su, where are you going? My eldest brother asked me to look after you. There is some unrest outside the city, so if you can avoid going, don't go."

Su Ruanruan sat in the carriage, "I'm going to town and will be back soon. You know, when I return to Beijing with you, I won't be able to take care of my business here. I have to make a good living."

"Do you have to go?" Niu Mang frowned.

"Of course, you don't have to worry about me." She glanced at the two people outside the carriage, "They are your people. You can rest assured that they are following me."

Niu Mang shook his head, "No, I'm still worried. Wait for me. I'll hand over the matter to them and then go with you."

"Oh, I just passed by Osmanthus Alley and saw a girl arguing with someone else. From the sound of her voice, it seemed to be... Miss Yuan'er." Su Ruanruan said.

"What? Why did she quarrel with others?"
