I have traveled through time, who am I afraid of?

Chapter 154: The Ghost in My Heart Makes Me Sleepless

"It is said that if you do not do bad things in your life, you will not be startled by a knock on your door in the middle of the night."

However, people who have truly done something wrong would still be frightened even if there was no knock on the door in the middle of the night.

What are you afraid of?

Afraid that the bad things I did while alive would be known to others;

Afraid that I will go to the Avici Hell after death and receive retribution from the underworld!

Leng Xian opened his eyes and looked at the study room he was in with fear.

He avoided the living ghost of Yin, but he couldn't avoid the other wronged ghost in his heart!

Leng Xian originally thought that if he could avoid Yin and rest in the study, he would be able to have a peaceful and quiet sleep.

When daybreak came, he went to court as if nothing had happened and served as the Marquis of Qinxing.

However, at this moment, he realized that he had thought too simply.

Where in this Marquis Qinxing’s Mansion is there no trace of Fu Baozhen?

Almost every object in this mansion is related to Fu Baozhen...

It could be Fu Baozhen's dowry, or it could be purchased by Fu Baozhen herself...

Fu Baozhen is the person that Leng Xian has never wronged in his entire life!

I feel sorry for everyone!

He was the one to whom he owed his life!

This study... He can't stay in this study anymore!

But where can he go?

Go back to the bedroom?

He really didn't want to see Yin again, at least in the next few days, he didn't want to see Yin's disgusting ugly face again!

Leng Xian wanted to escape from this study, and even wanted to escape from the Marquis Qinxing's Mansion!

But he can't.

After leaving here, he didn't know where to go!

Leng Xian fell back on the bed with lifeless eyes, staring straight at the ceiling of the tent.

He wanted to force himself to fall asleep quickly, but he just couldn't sleep at all.

Perhaps it was because he had been drowsy and waking up from sleep all day, and had slept too much, so now he wanted to sleep but couldn't.

In desperation, Leng Xian called Zhongshun in and said, "Go and tell the kitchen to bring me a pot of wine and prepare some side dishes."

"Yes, my lord, I'll go right away!" Zhongshun heard the order, turned around and ran out.

Leng Xian got off the bed and sat down behind the desk.

Looking down, he saw a pair of paperweights on the table. Leng Xian reached out and gently stroked them, then moved them aside.

He reached out and opened the lid of the inkstone again.

This Duan inkstone is beautifully carved with a lion rolling a ball, and the ball is exactly the stone eye on the Duan inkstone.

These were all Fu Baozhen’s dowry.

Leng Xian thought again of Fu Baozhen, who once stood in front of this table, looking at him with gentle eyes, grinding ink and cutting candle flames for him.

Leng Xian hurriedly put the lid of the inkstone back on.

Leng Xian suddenly thought of his mother at this moment.

In the morning, I heard from the servants that my mother had a nightmare at night and kept shouting: Let me go... let me go... spare me... spare me... don't eat me... don't bite me...

Alas! I am afraid that… I am haunted by nightmares and cannot wake up because I have a guilty conscience.

I am possessed by a nightmare and cannot wake up;

As for myself, I felt like I was possessed, restless and unable to sleep!

Leng Xian rested his elbows on the table and pressed his forehead with both hands, feeling a throbbing pain in both temples.

He thought of Fu Baozhen again. Whenever he had a headache, Fu Baozhen would patiently press his temples to relieve the headache...

Oh my God! Why did he think of Fu Baozhen again?

I have a nightmare, I am possessed...

Could it be that they haven't died yet and are still alive, but retribution has already come?

Leng Xian was thinking in frustration when he heard footsteps coming from outside the study.

Zhongshun came in carrying a tray with four side dishes, a pot of wine, a pair of jade chopsticks and a wine glass on it.

Zhongshun placed the tray directly on the table in front of Leng Xian, "My Lord, the wine and food are here."

"You can leave now." Leng Xian ordered Zhongshun to leave without even opening his eyes.

"Yes, my lord." Zhongshun obeyed the order and retreated to the outside of the study, closing the door casually.

Leng Xian opened his eyes and looked at the tray of food and wine in front of him...

Leng Xian suddenly wanted to call Zhongshun in and give him a good scolding.

This dog slave only brought this pot of wine!

Ugh!

I hope this pot of wine can make me drunk;

At least I can fall asleep!

Leng Xian reached out for the wine jug, filled the glass, picked up the glass and drank it in one gulp.

The wine slid down his throat with a sting, and Leng Xian frowned.

They all say good wine... good wine, but when this good wine reaches my mouth... why is it bitter?

After the night watch drum sounded, Leng Rongyue sent Nanny Chen and Nanny Zhao to bed first, and then asked Nanny Yuan, Luoxue and Piaoyu to go back to their own rooms to sleep. She did not leave anyone to keep watch.

After a few people left, Leng Rongyue blew out all the candles.

After waiting for a while, Leng Rongyue estimated that everyone should be asleep, so he quietly got up and climbed over the wall out of Yuehuaxuan.

The two secret guards who stayed in Marquis Qinxing's mansion tonight to protect Leng Rongyue were now hiding in a big tree outside Yuehuaxuan.

Suddenly, they all heard some slight noises.

Looking closely, it turned out to be the young lady they were supposed to protect. She walked out of the main house, came all the way to the courtyard wall, and directly climbed over the wall to leave Yuehuaxuan. No one knew where she was going or what she was going to do.

The two secret guards gave a signal in their special way, and one of them followed quietly.
