Chapter 248: Chapter 248: Autumn Rain

”My lord, you needn’t worry. Second Miss Ye is no ordinary woman. I’m certain she’ll be perfectly fine.”

Although he hadn’t had much contact with Ye Chutang, he had heard a few things from Lian Zhou. He felt that despite her youth, she was calm, composed, and methodical in her actions.

Besides, her medical skills are superb. She was able to treat even your injuries, my lord. This little trouble she’s in now should be nothing to her.

Shen Yanchuan didn’t ask any further questions. He lowered his gaze and resumed writing his letter.

A reply was quickly written. He folded it and slipped it into an envelope.

Yun Cheng stepped forward to take it, inwardly surprised.

’What could be so urgent?’

’But that wasn’t his place to ask.’ He carefully tucked the letter away and respectfully withdrew.

Shen Yanchuan pinched the bridge of his nose and looked out the window again.

The night was deep, a crescent moon hanging high in the sky.

The sound of a light, pattering rain gradually filled the courtyard.

Yellowing leaves swayed in the autumn wind, only to be beaten down by the rain, creating a damp and desolate scene.

...

With each autumn rain, the weather turns colder.

Autumn in the Capital City always arrived fast and sudden. After just one night of rain, it seemed to have grown much colder.

When Ye Chutang got up that morning, she dressed Xiao Wu in a special goose-yellow brocade garment embroidered with passion flowers. It made the Little Point’s fair, chubby face look even more adorable.

She examined herself in the mirror. The wound on her neck had already formed a light scab that would fall off in a few more days.

Xiao Wu knelt by her legs, her face full of distress as she carefully applied medicine for her.

The wound didn’t really hurt anymore. Feeling a bit playful, Ye Chutang pinched Xiao Wu’s cheek. ”Your big sis told you it wasn’t a serious injury. Do you believe me now?”

Xiao Wu puffed out her cheeks.

’Of course she believed her sis, but that didn’t mean other people could just bully and hurt her!’

’She still hadn’t settled the score with the person who hurt her sis!’

At this thought, Xiao Wu’s little brow furrowed even tighter. She held up her chubby little hands and began gesturing to Ye Chutang.

How could Ye Chutang not guess what was on her mind?

”You want to know what happened to Han Yao?”

Xiao Wu nodded vigorously.

Ye Chutang blinked. Having stayed indoors for the past few days, she really didn’t know the specifics of the situation.

’Shen Yanchuan’s way of doing things... I can never figure it out.’

It had been a while since the incident. Logically, some news should have gotten out by now.

Princess Qingyang had even known about Ye Heng’s suicide, yet there had been no word at all about Han Yao and his father.

Thinking of this, she ruffled Xiao Wu’s hair.

”Go get your fourth brother.”

Xiao Wu nodded, turned, and scurried outside on her short little legs.

Ye Yunfeng was in the courtyard, practicing his archery.

WHOOSH—THWACK!

The arrow flew with a sharp gust, landing dead center in the target. The force was so great that the fletching was still trembling.

Hearing the noise, Ye Yunfeng lowered his bow and turned his head, a roguish smile appearing on his handsome face.

”Xiao Wu, want to learn? Your fourth brother will teach you!”

He’d had nothing to do at home for the past few days, so he had taken out the bow from Shen Yanchuan. His progress in just a few days had been astonishingly fast.

Xiao Wu blinked.

”She’s still too little. Wait until she’s older,” Ye Jingyan said.

’Does he really think Xiao Wu was born with the same brute strength as him?’

Xiao Wu pointed.

Ye Yunfeng realized what she meant, a little surprised. ”Sis is looking for me?”

A brilliant smile blossomed on Xiao Wu’s face.

Ye Yunfeng casually set down his bow. As he passed Xiao Wu, he couldn’t resist pinching her chubby little cheek. Then, with a few quick bounds, he was inside the house, calling out:

”Sis? You were looking for me?”
