Ren Rude gave a faint smile and stroked his beard, "It's all thanks to your pure and kind heart, Lady, that after so many years away from the capital, you still remember old affections."
Feng Yun forced a bitter smile and shook her head, then after exchanging a few more pleasantries with him, she took Kong Yun'e and bid farewell to leave.
As the two of them walked and talked, it seemed as if a cold glint was following behind them, as if longing to pierce through her spine.
Feng Yun smiled calmly and said to Kong Yun'e:
"Yun'e, in my farming tool workshop, there are a few small rooms recently built, where during the day workers are busy and at night no one disturbs. It's warm and quiet, if you feel constrained living in the manor, staying there for a few days might be good."
Kong Yun'e readily agreed: "I'll follow your orders, Ayun."
-
The night fell in Huaxi Village, and all was silent.
In the tool workshop, the light in Kong Yun'e's room had just been extinguished.
