"But during this period, I still need her to cooperate with me in acting out a play."

"At the same time, I can't let on that I can hear her thoughts."

"I still have to think carefully about how to explain it to her and how to make her feel that all this sounds reasonable."

"Yunyun is different from other girls. She is very smart. If I am not careful, she will find the truth through clues."

"So, I have to be careful."

Shen Yelin stopped writing here. After checking what he had written, he felt that something was missing.

Finally he left a line of words at the end.

The tip of the pen slid gently across the paper, and every word expressed his inner love for Luo Xueyun.

After the ink dried, Shen Ye Lin put the notebook back into the wooden box. The moment the mechanism was locked, Shen Ye Lin felt relieved.

He looked out the window. The night was as dark as ink, and the stars were twinkling, just like the love he had for Yunyun in his heart, distant but bright.

Wang Qianzhi and his assistant, who came to deliver the medicine, stood blankly by the window.

The two of them dodged instantly when Shen Yelin turned around.

In fact, they had been standing in front of the window for a long time, and the reason they didn't come in was because the smile on Shen Yelin's face was too weird.

Shen Yelin usually only smiles when he is very angry, so Wang Qianzhi and his assistant thought that Shen Yelin was very angry now.

They saw Shen Yelin writing and drawing on a notebook.

The two thought that the notebook written by Shen Yelin was an assassination manual.

He wanted to write down all the people who had annoyed him, and then deal with them one by one.

In addition, the smile on Shen Yelin's face made Wang Qianzhi and the assistant more certain of their thoughts.

Moreover, in the middle of the conversation, Shen Yelin's face turned gloomy, which was very scary.

Even from a distance one could feel the cold and stern aura emanating from him.

Assistant Wang Qianmo was so frightened that he dared not even breathe: "Master, Master...what should we do now?"

"The assassination manual must be something important. If the Seventh Young Master finds out that we have seen it, we will probably be silenced."

Wang Qianzhi: “………………” He frowned and didn’t speak for a long time.

Although Shen Ye Lin took good care of him on a daily basis, he could enter and leave the Young Master's Mansion freely and was given very good welfare benefits.

He even went against all odds to defend him in the court, which shows how good Shen Ye Lin is to him.

But today's incident is different. This matter involves assassination. This kind of thing must not be exposed, otherwise it will cause a big disturbance.

Besides, we can only guess that what the Seventh Young Master wrote are the names of the people to be assassinated. Who knows if there may be other confidential matters.

Wang Qianmo stared at Wang Qianzhi who remained silent. He was so anxious that his heart was about to burn with flames.

Wang Qianmo whispered, "Master?"

Wang Qianzhi: "Shh, keep your voice down."

Wang Qianmo lowered his voice and said, "Master, please tell me what we should do now?"

Wang Qianzhi thought about it and said, "Well, if the Seventh Young Master doesn't ask, you and I will pretend that we don't know."

"If you ask, we will tell you the truth."

Wang Qianmo was still trembling a little: "Master, is this really okay?"

"What if the Seventh Young Master just wants to see if we can succeed..."

Wang Qianzhi asked back: "What if we tell him we will be silenced? If he doesn't find us, why should we tell him?"

Wang Qianmo nodded. He stretched out his hand and scratched the back of his head, and said in a not very smart way: "Master, what you said seems to make sense."

Wang Qianzhi: "Okay, take a deep breath and adjust your mood. Now we have to pass normally and go in to change the medicine for that lady."

Wang Qianmo: "Yes, disciple understands."

Once they were ready, they strode to the door.

It was only at this time that Shen Yelin noticed Wang Qianmo and Wang Qianzhi. He had been absorbed in thinking about Luo Xueyun's affairs just now, so he did not realize the existence of these two people.

After Wang Qianzhi and Wang Qianmo went in, Shen Yelin said, "Thank you for your help."

Wang Qianzhi and Wang Qianmo both froze at the same time, and waves of chills surged down their backs. It was not a pleasant feeling at all.

Wang Qianmo was so frightened that his legs were shaking.

After all, Wang Qianzhi is a man who has seen many ups and downs, and he is much calmer than Wang Qianmo.

Wang Qianzhi nodded slightly: "These are what we should do."

Shen Yelin noticed that something was wrong with Wang Qianmo. He pointed at Wang Qianmo's feet and said, "What's wrong with Qianmo's feet? They're shaking so badly."

Then Shen Yelin smiled: "Did he do something wrong? He is so trembling."

In fact, this was just a joke that couldn't be simpler, but to Wang Qianzhi and Wang Qianmo, who had done something wrong, it sounded like a naked threat.

It was as if the person in front of them had already known that they were eavesdropping outside.

However, when Wang Qianzhi looked at Shen Yelin's face, his intuition told him that Shen Yelin probably didn't notice what had just happened between them outside.

Otherwise he wouldn't be so easy-going.

Wang Qianmo didn't notice any of this at all. He thought Shen Yelin knew that they had just been peeking outside.

He was just about to kneel down and beg Shen Yelin for mercy when Wang Qianzhi, who was standing beside him, quickly grabbed his arm.

Wang Qianzhi smiled and looked at Shen Yelin: "Young Master, to be honest, I tried a new needle technique with Qian Mo today."

"I don't know which step went wrong, causing his legs to keep shaking."

"After I change the medicine for this young lady, I will also have to stitch Qian Mo's leg back in place."

Shen Yelin nodded: "I see, then you should fix it as soon as possible, it will be difficult for him to work if it stays like this."

Wang Qianzhi: "Yes, I understand."

After saying that, Wang Qianzhi pulled Wang Qianmo and turned to face Luo Xueyun.

Wang Qianzhi lowered his voice and said, "Did you see that? I still understand him."

Wang Qianmo looked at him with admiration: "As expected of a master, the old ones are the wisest."

Wang Qianzhi: “………………” Although Wang Qianmo was praising him, he felt like he was being scolded at the same time.

As soon as Wang Qianmo finished saying this, he immediately covered his mouth. How could he have forgotten that his master hated most when someone said he was old.

Realizing that he had just said the wrong thing, Wang Qianmo turned to look at Wang Qianzhi timidly: "Master, Master?"

However, Wang Qianzhi here has not yet realized what is wrong.

Wang Qianzhi frowned slightly: "What are you looking at me for? Hurry up and open the medicine box."

Wang Qianmo: "Yes, yes."

Shen Yelin saw Wang Qianmo and Wang Qianzhi changing the dressing on Luo Xueyun's arm, so he walked out holding the wooden box on the table. Before he left, he said, "I'm going to put something down. You two are not allowed to leave until I come back."

Wang Qianzhi: “Yes.”

Wang Qianmo: “Yes.”

In the room, Luo Xueyun lay quietly on the bed, her complexion looked much better than before.

The color of the blood is gradually recovering, and there was still no bleeding when the bandage on the wound on the arm was changed for the second time. Everything is fine.

The moonlight shone through the window onto her face, adding a touch of softness to her.

Wang Qianmo couldn't help but sigh: "Master, this girl is so well-behaved."

He had been staring at Luo Xueyun's face for a long time, looking like a crazy fan.

Wang Qianzhi immediately covered his mouth: "Shh, don't talk nonsense."

Wang Qianmo blinked his slightly stupid eyes: "Hmm?"

It’s not Wang Qianmo’s fault that he was so fascinated by Luo Xueyun. After all, he was just a five-year-old child.

The next second, the sound of Shen Yelin gently pushing open the door and walking towards them was heard behind them.

Wang Qianzhi quickly released the hand that was covering Wang Qianmo's mouth.

Shen Yelin walked lightly to the bed. He first glanced at Luo Xueyun on the bed, and then his eyes fell on Wang Qianmo.

The pair of inky black pupils stared at him coldly.

Wang Qianmo's heart suddenly felt cold.

Oh no... The young master must have heard what Qian Mo said! Alas, this child is really brainless...

Wang Qianzhi wanted to speak up for Wang Qianmo, but Shen Yelin turned around and glanced at him.

Wang Qianzhi swallowed back everything he wanted to say, and simply turned his head to the side and stopped looking at the situation here.

Only Wang Qianmo didn't know what was going on. He only knew that the look in the young master's eyes when he was looking at him was so cold that it seemed to freeze him to death.

Wang Qianmo: "Young Master..."

Shen Yelin interrupted him directly: "Does it look good?"

Wang Qianmo understood what was going on instantly, and he quickly said, "It's my fault, it's my fault..."

Shen Yelin: "Answer my question."

His voice was cold, without a trace of emotion, and Wang Qianmo was so scared that his whole body was shaking.

He didn't know whether the answer was good or bad, he felt that no matter which one he chose, he would be dead.

But he couldn't just say, "She's not pretty, right?" Wouldn't that make her die faster?

After a long while, Wang Qianmo slowly spoke: "This young lady is very pretty, and I was fascinated by her at once, so... so..."

He talked for a long time but didn't say the rest of the words.

After Shen Yelin heard his words, a smile appeared on his originally cold face: "I think she is very pretty, too."

"Okay, you guys go out."

Wang Qianmo: "Yes, yes, let's go now."

Wang Qianzhi: "Young Master, we will leave first."

Shen Yelin tilted his head slightly, and looked at Wang Qianzhi with eyes as cold as frost: "Next time when I change the medicine for Yunyun, Wang Qianmo doesn't need to come."

"His legs are shaking so badly. I don't think it's because the needles were inserted incorrectly, but because he didn't exercise enough."

"Let him sweep the yard for a month first. When he's physically fit, he won't have to sweep the yard anymore."

Wang Qianzhi: "Thank you for your concern for him, young master."

Shen Yelin raised his eyebrows slightly: "Go down."

Wang Qianmo: “Yes.”

Wang Qianzhi: “Yes.”

After Wang Qianmo and Wang Qianzhi walked away, Wang Qianzhi sighed helplessly. He reached out and flicked Wang Qianmo's forehead: "Do you want me to say you are stupid or foolish and ignorant?"

"How dare you say anything so casually?"

"Can't you see that the Seventh Young Master is very interested in that girl?"

"Besides, when have you ever seen the young master care so much about someone, and a girl at that?"

"How dare you say these things without any sense at all?"

"That girl is pretty and well-behaved, but it's not something you and I should discuss in that place."

"You should be thankful that you are working for the Seventh Young Master. If it were any other Young Master, your tongue and eyes would have to move away."

Wang Qianmo was so frightened that his body trembled violently. In fact, he had just realized the murderous intent emanating from Shen Yelin.

Wang Qianzhi: "This is just a lesson for you, so you can use your brain."

"Just do the task assigned to you by the young master well. When he is in a good mood, he will naturally not let you sweep the floor again."

Wang Qianmo nodded sadly: "I understand."

-----

In the room, Shen Ye Lin was sitting in front of the bed looking at Luo Xueyun.

His eyes were full of worry for her, and his face had an indescribable tenderness.

He reached out and gently stroked her hair, as if to bring her a little warmth and comfort.

"Yunyun, you have to get better soon."

-----

At a certain trading point, a breeze blew by, taking away the fine dust and scattered branches and leaves on the ground, but it could not take away the tension and depression in the air.

In a dim secret room, the candlelight flickered, and the light and shadows were mottled.

A middle-aged man had a solemn expression and a furrowed brow, holding a yellowed secret letter tightly in his hand.

"This matter must be resolved as soon as possible." He whispered to himself, his voice full of anxiety.

Another man in black chuckled: "What are you afraid of? How can you be so sure that the content above is the assassination list?"

"Besides, what kind of trouble can a five-year-old kid cause?"

The trembling man retorted: "This is your first day dealing with him. You don't know how cruel he is."

"Otherwise, why would His Majesty like him so much?"

"He has already cleared out most of the corrupt officials in the court, and recently he has set his sights on me."

"Before, he and I were always at odds with each other. I thought he was just a kid, what was there to be afraid of? Who knew that he would wipe out ten of my underground gambling dens that night?"

“He checked them all.”

"I saw him the next day and talked to him, and he acted as if nothing had happened."

"That's not what matters."

"I provoked him at the time, and that night he caught the spy I had planted next to him."

"They cut off his limbs and turned him into a human pig. He was then placed in a large vase. His eyes were dug out and his tongue was cut out."

"Whining and whimpering in my house."

"If you had seen the scene that night, you wouldn't believe that it was a person."

"And he left me a note, warning me that if there is a next time, he will be your next one."

"I was frightened at the time. Besides, Shen Yelin was only five years old. If he was so cruel at the age of five, what would happen next?"
