Chapter 72 Is there something wrong with An Yu?

Di Yu'an paused in his heart, but he hardly showed any abnormality. Instead, a look of fear quickly emerged on his face. He moved closer to Ye Qiongying and quickly grabbed her sleeve:

"Ah? There are bad guys? Anyu doesn't know. Sister, I'm scared! Where are the bad guys?"

Ye Qiongying patted his hands and asked him to let go:

"Stand behind me first, I'll go in and take a look."

She was about to move forward when she felt someone pulling her sleeve. She turned around and met An Yu's bright peach blossom eyes:

"Is my sister okay? Otherwise... ask that fierce grandpa to come, sister, to accompany An Yu."

That fierce grandpa refers to Uncle Ye, right?

Seeing him stuttering, Ye Qiongying couldn't help but smile and said soothingly:

"It's okay, trust me. Wait here, I'll be back soon after checking."

An Yu listened to her the most. After Ye Qiongying said this, An Yu loosened his fingers. When he was about to let go of her sleeve, he grabbed it again and whispered:

"Sister, please be well!"

After saying that, he finally let go of my hand completely and stood behind obediently.

Ye Qiongying patted the boy's head, and An Yu also obediently lowered her head to let her touch it.

After doing all this, Ye Qiongying walked into the room.

She was still wearing casual clothes for resting at home. The loose white robe made her figure look particularly thin and frail, but in her hand she held a sharp sword.

It looked like if anyone was spotted tonight, he would be killed on the spot with the sword.

Ye Qiongying walked step by step to the center of the room, and then approached the place where the secret guard was just now.

She turned around twice, then suddenly looked up at the beams.

Without waiting for An Yu to say anything, Ye Qiongying stepped on the ground, and the whole person took off like a white flying butterfly, and landed lightly on the beam.

However, there was no one here, but there was a small spider weaving a web in the corner.

Ye Qiongying looked around carefully.

But there is no suitable space to hide people up there. If someone really wants to hide, they may not be found below, but once they come up, they can definitely be seen at a glance.

Could it really be just an illusion?

Ye Qiongying jumped down from the beam and landed on the ground.

As soon as she stood firm, An Yu, who was guarding the door, ran over and pulled her sleeve to look at her carefully:

"Sister, don't be good! It's so high, it will hurt!"

This means that if she jumps from too high, she will get hurt.

Ye Qiongying laughed:

"No, my sister is very skilled, this is nothing. Look, nothing happened!

By the way, Anyu, did you hear any strange noises? "

Speaking of which, after going out, this kid's speech has become more and more fluent.

At first, he could only call his sister and his own name. At this rate, he might be able to communicate fluently like a normal person before arriving at the border town.

"No," An Yu shook her head, "I just heard my sister knocking on the door, An Yu opened the door, and my sister came. Sister wants to accompany An Yu?"

"That won't do," Ye Qiongying tapped An Yu's forehead, "You are already a big kid, you have to sleep by yourself."

After she finished speaking, she took An Yu with her and checked other places in the house.

Cabinets, under the bed...

There's no one in these places.

It's impossible that the other party would dig a hole in the ground, right?

This is her home. How could she not know if there is a secret passage in the room?

Ye Qiongying walked to the bedside, looked at the window, suddenly touched it, then turned around and asked:

"Anyu, have you opened the window tonight?"

"Hmm?" An Yu looked at the window and found that it was loose. It was obvious that this room was not often occupied. The traces of the window being opened were very obvious. "It's open. An Yu feels hot. Open the window and let in some air. It's cool and comfortable!"

While he was speaking, Ye Qiongying had already reopened the window.

The window faces the bushes by the wall.

Before, An Yu also climbed out of the window and hid in the bushes, right?

She stood by the window, looking at the wall without moving.

"Meow~"

A cat's meow was heard.

Then, there was a rustling sound, and a black cat jumped up from the other end, standing on the top of the wall, walking forward gracefully, with its long, slender tail swaying behind it.

Is it a cat?

Seeing the black cat walk for a distance and then jump down again, and go outside the wall, no one knew where it went. Ye Qiongying lowered her eyes.

"Sister?" An Yu stood next to Ye Qiongying and suddenly asked, "Sister, do you like cats?"

Ye Qiongying came back to her senses and looked at An Yu.

The boy still looked handsome and clean, with his hair slightly curled up from sleeping, making him look pitiful and cute.

At this moment, those peach blossom eyes were staring at her closely, like a puppy trying to compete with a cat for favors. It seemed that no matter what was on his mind, it was all written directly on his handsome face, and he could not hide any secrets at all.

Ye Qiongying shook her head and said to An Yu:

"It's okay, I just suddenly thought of something else and got distracted. My sister has checked and there are no bad guys here. Anyu, you have a good rest. I'll go back to my room first."

An Yu looked at Ye Qiongying pitifully.

"I have to go out to buy things tomorrow. If An Yu doesn't get enough rest tonight, she won't be able to go out with me tomorrow," Ye Qiongying said deliberately, "Oh, if An Yu can't go, I'll find someone else..."

"Anyu can go!" The boy was immediately anxious. He quickly ran to the bed, kicked off his shoes, and huddled into the quilt. He curled up on his side, holding the quilt with his hands and buried his head in it. "Anyu has fallen asleep!"

Ye Qiongying looked at the sleeping silhouette and somehow felt it was somewhat familiar.

But that feeling was so shallow that it disappeared in an instant, not even leaving her any room to think about it.

Ye Qiongying smiled. This guy is really like a child. He becomes obedient as soon as the question of going out is raised.

"Okay, An Yu is asleep. I'll take you out tomorrow." After Ye Qiongying responded, she walked out of the room, closed the door for him, and turned to walk towards her own room.

cat……

There won’t be any stray cats suddenly appearing in the Ye Mansion, and no one in the mansion keeps these little creatures.

Also, was the "visitor" she sensed really just an illusion?

Ye Qiongying's mind quickly flashed through the empty beams, the open windows, and the black cat on the wall...

What if someone really came?

Is An Yu really as innocent as he appears to be, or is he a spy planted by someone with ulterior motives?

Ye Qiongying returned to the room, sat down to rest for a while, and quickly made a decision.

If that's the case, she must take An Yu away.

Such a suspicious character must not be allowed to stay in the house to threaten the safety of my grandmother and my aunt. It would be better to keep him by her side to prevent him.

As for the other party's purpose, she had taken precautions in advance and was not worried about being caught in the trap.

An Yu's beautiful eyes flashed in her mind.

I hope the child is okay, otherwise...

Ye Qiongying's eyes became fierce.

As long as anyone threatens the Ye family, she will show no mercy!

"Your Majesty, Miss Ye seems to have noticed something," the returning secret guard knelt down again, "Do you need me to...solve it?"

He clenched his hand and stroked his neck, the meaning of which was self-evident.
