The moonlight was cold and clear.

Ning Jing stopped in her tracks, looking back at Nian Jincheng.

Before Nian Jincheng could see Ning Jing’s expression, she had disappeared into the vast darkness of the night.

Su Liang didn’t know what they were talking about, but seeing Nian Jincheng wearing Ning Jing’s clothes coming out of the room, she told him to go back, “Mai Fei’s people are coming. After I leave, wash the dishes and clean up the kitchen.”

Nian Jincheng immediately returned to the room, closed the door, and hid to avoid being discovered.

When he calmed down, he realized that Ning Jing told him to “wash the dishes and clean up the kitchen” because she wanted him to do those chores, just like Su Liang had said.

Was this what Ning Jing always did?

Nian Jincheng sat in the room, picked up Ning Jing’s book, and saw a familiar gingko leaf bookmark inside.

He also had such a bookmark, given to him by his only friend.

There was a sound from the room next door, and Nian Jincheng closed the book, listening quietly.

After the courtyard quieted down again, he waited for a while before opening the door and going out.

The pomegranate tree had lost all its leaves, and its twisted branches had a somber beauty under the moonlight.

Nian Jincheng went to the main room to clean up the dishes and accidentally broke a plate with a slip of his hand.

He frowned, slowed down his movements, and took the dishes to the kitchen to wash them with water.

When he finished washing, there was a lot of water splattered on the ground, a part of his clothes was wet, and he also broke another plate and two bowls.

After cleaning up the broken porcelain, sweeping the kitchen and main room, Nian Jincheng sighed, feeling quite embarrassed.

If it hadn’t been for the fact he couldn’t leave the house, he’d find a way to get the same dishes to replace them.

He could imagine Su Liang complaining to Ning Jing about how he “couldn’t even wash a dish without causing a mess…”

But looking at the pile of broken porcelain, Nian Jincheng felt inexplicably good about it.

The feeling was hard to describe.

Su Liang wasn’t polite to him, but he felt that she didn’t treat him as an outsider because of it.

Comparatively, Mai Fei had come to dinner and spent five thousand taels, while Nian Jincheng was invited and ate for free. The feeling of superiority suddenly appeared.

Ning Jing remained aloof throughout the reunion, and there was no small talk, no exchange of recent developments, no explanation needed. It was as if Nian

Jincheng had just gone out for a while and came back home for dinner as usual.

Su Liang’s cooking was excellent, the meat buns were delicious, and the osmanthus cake from the daytime was also sweet.

Nian Jincheng’s cold lips curved into a faint smile, and he suddenly thought of the perfect gift for Su Liang to thank her for taking care of Ning Jing.

He would give her a set of tableware. There was a high-end porcelain shop in the capital city where he could have it custom-made.

Nian Jincheng returned to Ning Jing’s room and saw a freshly carved wooden hairpin on the table. It was shaped like a tiny wooden sword, very delicate.

He picked it up and examined the pattern on the wooden sword, then was dumbstruck.

It was exactly the same as that on his waist sword!

However, his sword had been taken away by Ning Jing and was not on him at the moment.

A smile appeared in Nian Jincheng’s eyes, and he murmured to himself, “So this is for me.”

He had almost forgotten that he would turn twenty tomorrow.

Not long ago, when he left home for a faraway place, no one from the Nian Family remembered it, including his close sister, Nian Ruxue.

Every year, each young master and lady of the Nian Family would have a special family banquet on their birthday, with their grandmother from the Qiao Family carefully preparing gifts for them.

Only Nian Jincheng never got that treatment. Last year, Nian Ruxue accompanied him on his birthday, giving him a piece of clothing. That day, he received a mysterious gift, a famous sword that had been lost for a long time.

He loved it.

Now, he received a little wooden sword hairpin for his birthday, feeling quite surprised and increasingly amused. It seemed that someone had become much more interesting than before, even though she still appeared as if saying more than a few words would be lethal…

“Master, Miss Su has been gone for an hour, and Young Master Ning has not left the house,” Chang’an reported to Mai Fei.

Mai Fei’s eyes flickered, “Is he really not worried? Or does he not care? Are you sure he’s at home?”

“He didn’t go out, so he should be there,” Chang’an said, suddenly feeling less certain.

“Continue to watch,” Mai Fei ordered, “If everything goes smoothly, Su Liang should be back by tomorrow.”

This was a mountain about ten miles to the north of Bei’an County.

In late autumn and early winter, the deep, quiet night was seldom disturbed by the chirping of insects or the singing of birds.

At a secluded cave halfway up the mountain, Gai Yun awoke to the secret knock on the rocks outside and opened his eyes.

He had been tortured by Mai Fei and was physically weak, no longer able to fight.

Gai Huai’an, who already had a crippled leg, had both his other “legs” completely destroyed by Mai Fei. He was sitting against the wall, skinny as a skeleton, his eyes dark and intimidating.

One person was sitting by the entrance of the cave on either side, both getting up as a man spoke, “Old Man Wu, it’s one of ours.” With that, he used a sword to knock on the rocks in a regulated rhythm as a response.

Then, they moved the large stone blocking the entrance of the cave, and two people quickly entered, carrying a sack.

Gai Huai’an’s eyes widened, and his eyes instantly became excited, “That bitch has been caught! Hahaha!”

Gai Yun’s eyes were deep and dark, “You really caught her.”

The lead man respectfully replied, “Thanks to Old Man Wu’s reminder to use poison. Ning Jing left her house tonight for some reason, giving us an opportunity.”

It sounded exactly like the experience of Gai Yun kidnapping Su Liang.

“Are you sure you didn’t catch the wrong person?” Gai Yun asked coldly. Gai Huai’an clenched his teeth, “Quickly open the sack, let me see!”

The entrance of the cave was blocked again, torches were lit, and the sack was placed one meter in front of Gai Yun and Gai Huai’an.

The father and son stared intently as the sack was opened, revealing a small, pale face. If it wasn’t Su Liang, who else could it be?

Ning Jing, who had been calm up until now, his eyes also brimmed with raging fury! Su Liang appeared even more crazed. “Bitch! I’ll make sure she dies a horrible death!”

The father and son duo knew perfectly well that even if Prince Mai Fei was suspicious of them, without evidence, he wouldn’t dare to do anything to them. And the evidence was something he could not find.

Therefore, even though they knew Mai Fei was watching, they could still do whatever they wanted without restraint.

But they never expected that they would fall into the hands of a small village girl they had never cared about!

Their miserable situation now was all because of Su Liang!

They hated Su Liang to the extreme, and insisted on capturing her. Apart from proving her identity and strength to these “insiders,” they also wanted to take revenge on Su Liang.

At this moment, their enemy was right before their eyes.

Su Liang burst into a mad laughter, his face twisted. “Strip her clothes off! I’ll play with her first, then I’ll hand her over to you!”

The six men standing in the cave looked at each other. The leader’s face showed great joy. “Thank you, Master Gai!” He then ordered another man, “Take her out and strip her clothes off!”

Su Liang’s body leaned forward, his eyes bulging, and he laughed coldly. He watched as a man squatted not far away and tried to pull off the sack.

Just as the sack was about to be removed from Su Liang’s feet, and she was fully exposed to the father and son, she suddenly opened her eyes, drew the sword from the man beside her, and stabbed it fiercely into his chest!

Blood splashed on the faces of Gai Yun and Gai Huai’an, and they looked horrified, being shielded by two others.

“So stupid… How did the sedatives wear off so quickly…” Gai Huai’an’s expression changed from arrogant to terrified as he shrank his neck, trembling all over, and remembered the feeling of Su Liang strangling his neck in the past.

The man whose sword was taken by Su Liang and stabbed through his body had already closed his eyes and fell to the ground motionless, looking like he was dead.

Aside from the two protecting Gai Yun and Gai Huai’an, there were three others attacking Su Liang.

The space inside the cave was not big, and the three men were ruthless, but Su Liang was even more ruthless.

Blood splattered everywhere. In a short time, Su Liang’s white clothes were soaked with blood, and her injuries could not be seen.

She didn’t speak out, but her icy gaze, which fell on Gai Yun and Gai Huai’an, made them shudder.

Seeing that they had no chance of winning, Gai Yun finally recovered some rationality from shock and terror, and hurriedly said, “Go! Hurry up!”

Gai Huai’an held onto the man beside him tightly. “Go! Get me out of here quickly! That bitch will kill me!”

Thus, the two men who had been protecting Gai Yun and Gai Huai’an from the beginning carried them quickly towards the entrance of the cave.

At this time, Su Liang had defeated another person, broke through the encirclement, and chased after them!

Gai Huai’an looked back to see another man falling under Su Liang’s attack, and her blood-soaked figure rushed over. He was immediately terrified, and his voice trembled, “Hurry! Hurry up!”

The two who were still standing blocked Su Liang, but one of them was severely injured by Su Liang soon after.

The pair carrying Gai Yun and Gai Huai’an left the cave and ran down the mountain with all their strength. After a while, they heard Su Liang’s voice from behind, “You can separate and run, betting on who I’ll let die today!”

Extremely arrogant and ruthless, she seemed like a female devil who killed without blinking an eye.

“Let’s go together!” Gai Yun decided.

Although if they separated, Su Liang could only chase one, and the other would be safe, but who knew which one Su Liang would go after?

This kind of fear was even more frightening than Su Liang saying directly who she wanted to kill.

It seemed as if she held the power of life and death, who would live and who would die, all depending on her mood!

Gai Huai’an screamed frantically to hurry up, and the man carrying him yelled, “Master Gai, don’t speak anymore! She’s following the sound!”

Gai Huai’an’s face turned pale as if he was being strangled, trembling all over. He muttered, “She’s just a village girl… where did things go wrong… how could she be so powerful… why… it shouldn’t be like this… if she’s really that strong… why hide in Su Family Village…”

“She’s injured, she might not catch up! Hurry!” Gai Yun spoke, not knowing whether he was comforting himself or Gai Huai’an, his voice also trembling.

The wind rustled in the mountain, and after a long time, Gai Huai’an looked back to find that the terrifying figure was finally gone.

“She should be unable to catch up,” said the man carrying Gai Yun, sighing in relief.

“What do we do now? The cave was the designated location, and we can only wait for the next instruction. But we can’t go back now!” The man carrying Gai Huai’an said in a deep voice.

Gai Yun said coldly, “First, let’s get out of here. Once we leave the mountain, I’ll tell you where to go.”

Su Liang had long given up on chasing Gai Yun and Gai Huai’an, and returned to the cave to save people.

She had to be tough in order to make that father and son believe her. It was necessary to treat her injuries promptly, otherwise, the person would really be dead.

She had prepared the things to be used before she came and hid them on her body. So far, the plan had gone smoothly, achieving the desired results.

After Su Liang had dealt with the seriously injured people, she blew a short whistle that Mai Fei had given her to call people over to deal with the aftermath.

The people took away everyone from the cave and asked Su Liang if she wanted to go back with them.

A man wearing Nian Jincheng’s clothes and a mask came out of the woods outside the cave. ‘You go first; I’ll escort Miss Su back.”

So the people left quickly.

The walls and floor of the cave were covered in blood, and there was a puddle

of urine where Gai Huai’an had been sitting. He had been so scared by Su Liang’s ferocity that he had wet himself…

Su Liang tidied up the medical bag and walked out of the cave, taking a deep breath. The air inside was nauseating.

Ning Jing walked over, his gaze fixed on her torn arm. “You’re injured?”

“It’s just a minor injury, I’ve already stopped the bleeding.” Most of the blood on Su Liang’s body was not hers.

The “real battle” was less intense than the “rehearsal,” but she had to do what she had to do. Otherwise, it would be hard to convince Gai Yun. Hurting someone to a point where they seemed to be dead but weren’t was not easy; one could easily make a mistake.

Compared to her body, Su Liang’s taut nerves relaxed. Her spirit was more exhausted than her body.

“Let’s go back.” Su Liang took another deep breath, her eyes clear and bright, and she smiled easily. “If we’re late and Mai Fei discovers your brother at our house, unless he says he has fallen in love with you at first sight and went to secretly wear your clothes, there will be no way to end this.”

Ning Jing frowned and looked at Su Liang. Walking to her, he said, “Get on.”

Su Liang hesitated, “You’re carrying me?”

“Get on.” Ning Jing repeated the command.

Su Liang was indeed very tired and still had to hurry back, so she accepted the offer, climbed onto Ning Jing’s back, and chuckled, “You said you don’t see me as a woman, so we’re good brothers?”

Ning Jing nodded and quickly carried Su Liang down the mountain..
