Time Travel Adventure

"I don't know. Hey, why am I being lifted up by someone? Please be gentle!" He turned around to look at the screen and saw that he was being lifted up by someone. It was none other than Young Master Xiao. Wasn't he lying on the bed?

Nannan glanced at me and shrugged helplessly, indicating that she didn't know either. When she was looking, she had already been put on the bed, with her posture and clothes still in place.

Why is this guy so careful all of a sudden? There was no one else in the room, and I was lying there alone.

"Can you replay this thing?"

"Replay?" Nannan understood the word carefully, then pondered for a while, then made an incomprehensible gesture with her hand, and the picture on the screen really began to rewind.

In the scene that she didn't see, the door was pushed open by someone. "Nannan, who is this person? Why can't I see his face? Can you adjust the angle?"

Nannan made another incomprehensible finger gesture, and the angle behind her indeed moved upwards a little, so that the person's face could be seen perfectly. Who else could it be, if not Hongdou?

Wasn't she practicing calligraphy with the young general? Why was she here? Hongdou was looking deeply in one direction. Following Hongdou's line of sight, she saw Master Xiao.

Young Master Xiao, who was pale just now, was now sitting on the edge of the bed. The two of them did not communicate with each other at all, just staring at each other. I even doubted whether these two people had any way to communicate with each other through eye contact.

Finally, Master Xiao came up to me and put me on the bed rudely, or rather, threw me on the bed, and then pushed the door open and went out. Before leaving, when he passed by Hongdou, the two of them looked at each other and smiled at each other.

After Master Xiao went out, Hongdou quickly came forward, tidied my clothes and posture, covered me with the quilt, tucked in the corners of the quilt, and then went out.

I was saying, when did this Master Xiao become so attentive? Or is it my Hongdou who is more attentive? No, these two people must be up to something. My heart started pounding.

Nannan and I looked at each other. We didn't know what the other was thinking. We felt very complicated. I don't know how long I stayed with Nannan. I just sat at the table and thought.

I didn't even touch the food prepared by Nannan. Nannan did the same as me, but she didn't stop eating. When Nannan finished the last piece of pastry, I stood up and asked her to take me back.

When I opened my eyes again, it was already dusk. Not long after I got up, someone pushed the door open and said, "Miss, you are up. Mr. Shen just sent someone to inform you to go back for dinner."

Before I could recover from the shock, I was taken to the carriage. As the carriage rocked, I became more awake. Why did Mr. Shen want to see me? At this time? To eat? Could it be that I was discovered in the underground palace last time?

That shouldn't be the case. Never mind. As long as it's not the Hongmen Banquet, everything is fine. Everything is fine. When we arrived, Mrs. Jiang and Mr. Shen were already discussing something.

When he saw me coming, he had a smile on his face and invited me to eat. I nodded lightly and sat down. The meal was nothing special, just some simple greetings.

He also mentioned the matter of Hongdou. Hongdou's shop couldn't be hidden from Master Shen. "Hongdou has been with me for a long time, and I want to learn something from her."

The topic was diverted. It was not until the after-dinner tea that I found out why I was asked to come here. It was Ling'er who served the tea. Looking at Ling'er's rosy face, I didn't quite understand.

What does this mean? I was staring at Ling'er's face, but Mrs. Jiang's cough pulled me back. "It's really not a good time to say this, but..."

I knew from her hesitant look that she was trying to convince me to marry Ling'er. "Madam, you know, I haven't seen my sister for a long time. I can't interfere in her affairs."

I still wanted to distance myself from it. I didn't want to be the one who nodded, and then I would have to take the blame in the end. It seemed that what I said had no effect on Mrs. Jiang.

She looked at Mr. Shen and said, "We plan to marry you."

"Pfft, cough, cough, cough, cough, Madam, what did you say!" The water I just drank choked my throat. Who the hell is this? Why did he marry me? What does this have to do with me?

"Oh, slow down, slow down." Mrs. Jiang came forward and patted my back. By the time I recovered, my face must have been red from coughing.

"Hey, we have to find a way. Ling'er is already pregnant and she can't wait any longer."

"What?" Pregnant? I looked at Ling'er, who was now looking at the ground shyly. I subconsciously looked at her belly, and it seemed that there was no bulge.

"The Shen family has always had a single-line inheritance. It's so hard to have a child. We, hey, child, can you understand?" Mrs. Jiang seemed to be asking what I meant, but her words implied that she should agree to take in Ling'er.

This is like saying, is there property to be inherited in the family? But the other person really has the ability to do so. Looking at Ling'er, a nameless anger rises in my heart.

On the one hand, he was angry at Shen Jing, and on the other hand, he was angry that in this era, he could not do anything in this situation. He clenched his fists tightly, closed his eyes, and suppressed the anger in his heart.

After I calmed down a bit, "Then Madam can just tell Dad or Sister." The most important thing is, this is none of my business! Don't accept me. Now when I think of Shen Jing's face, I want to punch him.

"It's really rude to say this so suddenly. Think about it carefully. If you don't go through the door, Ling'er can't get in either." These words made me even more speechless. What do you mean if I don't go through the door, Ling'er can't get in either?

My brows also frowned, "We are tired too, Ling'er, take Lele back to the room."

Before I could say anything, I was ordered to leave. Isn't this the next ultimatum? Ling'er must marry into the family. If I don't agree, should I marry first?

After marrying in, it didn't matter whether she agreed or not. She simply bowed and followed Ling'er out the door.

My mind was in a mess and it was getting dark outside. I just followed Ling'er and I didn't know where I was. When I came to my senses, I found myself in the woods outside.

I looked at Ling'er warily, not knowing what this guy wanted to do. When he heard me stop, Ling'er also stopped and looked at me. I was about to take out my knife, but this guy knelt down in front of me.

What is this guy doing? He quickly moved away from the direction where Ling'er was kneeling. He didn't want to shorten his life.

"What for? I've lived so long, so you want to share my burden?" I said this without any clue. Ling'er didn't react for a moment and was obviously stunned.

By the time I realized what was happening, I had already found a big rock to sit on. This journey was so tiring, so this Ling'er must have lived too long.

She knelt down at my feet and kowtowed to me, "Miss, please have mercy and ask, I beg you, Miss..."

She kept talking about how she didn't want the baby to be born without a father and she wanted to give the child a name. Later, Ling'er covered her stomach and cried bitterly. It was so heartbreaking.

I held Ling'er's body down, and she trembled a bit. "Raise your head."

Ling'er raised her head obediently. It was the first time in such a long time that I had a good look at Ling'er's face. I wouldn't say she was stunningly beautiful, but she was a perfect, pure face like a beautiful girl from a small family, but now she had a hint of charm.

"Since you don't want this child to live in such pain, then abort him. I have medicine here that can make him die peacefully. You can go to the temple and make atonement for your child."

The moment I finished speaking, I turned Ling'er's face away and looked up at her. This is the feeling of being in a superior position. It feels so good. It seems so fun to appreciate the changes on Ling'er's face.

Ling'er's expression remained frozen for a long time, her mind constantly changing as she thought about what to say. Her eyes looked around, and it was obvious that she was making up an excuse.

"Come, drink this." I took out a medicine bottle from behind me and handed it to Ling'er. This was not an abortion drug, but just a sleeping pill that hadn't turned into smoke yet.

But it doesn't matter, this guy can eat it and faint, then I have a way to make this child disappear. Ling'er took a look and looked at me in disbelief, she probably didn't expect that she would carry this kind of medicine with her.

I looked at the person in front of me who was struggling, and tried to help her break down her mental defenses. I asked for help in opening the lid of the medicine bottle, and began to tempt Ling'er, "Come, take it, and everything will be over. I will send you to some other place and let you live a normal life."

In this era, living an ordinary life, let alone a good life, is already a luxury. Every family has its own problems. I can let her live a life without worries.

What surprised me was that Ling'er actually began to struggle. Her eyes began to become empty, as if she was thinking about something, adding fuel to the fire. "With my ability, I can make it impossible for anyone to find you. Isn't it tiring to live like this, being trapped in this house and struggling for the rest of your life?"

I looked at Ling'er's hand and it really started to move. Was she moved? I thought this guy's psychological defense was perfect, but it turned out to be so vulnerable. This was the first time I did this, and it was successful, which made me hard to accept.

I watched Ling'er's hand slowly reach out and take the medicine bottle from my hand. I half-knelt behind Ling'er, gently placed my hand on her shoulder, and continued to persuade her in her ear.

"Drink it, and an innocent life will be saved from being in dire straits from the moment it is born." Ling'er was still shaking as she looked at the bottle in her hand. I held Ling'er's hand, telling her to stop shaking, and slowly put the bottle to her mouth.

Just when I was about to drink, someone actually came to interrupt the moment.
