Chapter 84: Chapter 84 Your Status Poses No Threat!

Dawn broke with myriad rays of rosy light, a perfect springtime scene, as if to conceal the chaos of the last night.

Outside the courtyard, Cui Yun looked cold and detached.

Yingwu respectfully reported in detail.

"Sir, I am incompetent. I failed to capture the person. Not only that, I almost let Miss Shen be taken away."

She paused, "The opponent’s martial arts were profound and unpredictable."

The initial fight was merely a probing of her strengths and weaknesses.

Last night, after only a few rounds, once the opponent used full force, she could not hold up anymore.

The people from the pear garden were already grateful to Cui Yun. Not to mention, awaking to find out that an evildoer had infiltrated last night.

At this moment, Nanny Cheng, still shaken, was serving tea and refreshments.

The tea was freshly made, the tea leaves were expensive, and the steam was dense, making the tea yellow and clear.

Cui Yun, however, did not drink a sip. Standing with his hands behind his back, his expression unreadable: "If that’s the case, why did that person hastily withdraw?"

"I do not know," Yingwu admitted with shame.

However...

"It seemed like the person recognized me."

The dagger that fell had an emblem of a spread-winged eagle with sharp, piercing eyes - a unique insignia of Cui Yun’s Shadow Guard.

The dagger was knocked to the ground, and in the next instant, she was grasped by the neck and could not struggle. She was clearly losing. But the opponent hesitated upon seeing the insignia. Showing no emotion, yet seemingly taken aback, the opponent slowed down, which allowed her to find a gap and strike back.

"That person was not keen on fighting and left very quickly."

Cui Yun looked down at the bracelet on his wrist, which he had Ji Qing clean and soak in sandalwood overnight before wearing it.

He did not fidget with it as usual.

Cui Yun has been discreet for many years, never revealing his force to outsiders. Among those openly serving him was only Ji Qing, who knew some martial arts. There were very few in the world who could recognize this insignia.

Unless that person had deeply investigated him. And this, indeed, made Cui Yun vigilant. He conducts his affairs with precision and had already erased all traces. Even the Emperor’s Imperial Guard couldn’t find a lead.

How could the Marquis Yangling Mansion make people so wary?

Or do they want something from him? Hence, in knowing full well the connection between Yicui and him might be significant, they chose to completely abandon their target.

But why did they attack Cui Rong?

The whole situation is baffling.

However, the fox will eventually show its tail.

At least in this matter, the other party also seemed to have no excessive malice.

He chuckled softly, even looking forward to it: "This... just got interesting."

Inside the room, Ni Kang was surrounding Shen Hua. On the table was a half-burnt Buhuo.

"The people around you were drugged last night. Thus, despite the commotion, no one came."

Obviously, that person wanted to stealthily take someone away.

The Knockout Drug used on Yicui and others was just the most ordinary, vastly inferior to Buhuo.

Shen Hua was indeed startled, especially after seeing the terrible bruise on Yingwu’s neck.

She listlessly nodded her head.

Ni Kang stared deeply at Shen Hua.

The girl’s eyes were tinged with blue, clearly she had not slept all night.

An ordinary person drugged with a Knockout Drug could sleep till dawn.

Especially when Shen Hua’s body is frail and not resistant to the elements. Having inhaled Buhuo, she was still unaffected like nothing happened!!!

Why!

According to Yingwu, afterwards the burning Buhuo was extinguished, the door was opened wide to let the cold air take away the residual seductive scent. After releasing a signal flare to the sky,

Still worried about Shen Hua, when she returned to the room, Shen Hua was trembling under the blanket.

"Miss, are you still awake?" Yingwu was also stunned at that moment.

Shen Hua was even more stunned: "After all this, how could I possibly sleep?"

Her pulse was as usual,

As if Buhuo had no effect on Shen Hua at all.

Ni Kang went crazy again: "But you were clearly affected by Buhuo, why wasn’t your mind confused?"

Shen Hua was even more annoyed.

After sorting out the sequence of events,

"So because I am not a daughter of a noble family, they used a cheap drug on me?"

Was she not worthy?

Shen Hua angrily exclaimed: "Who do they think they are looking down on!"

Ni Kang: ...

"It’s not subpar seductive scent, it’s the same one as in Wei Yingying’s room."

It’s not that I look down on you, but clearly it looks down on him!

He didn’t even know how to deal with Shen Hua’s body in the first place; now with this incident, he is sure to trap himself in a dead end again.

Why, why!

Why does Buhuo have no effect on Shen Hua!

"This is a sleeping pill, take a few."

Ni Kang irritably wrote another prescription for new medicine.

"Cook this medicine for the next two days, take it after finishing the original one."

He asked in detail: "Have there been any other symptoms these days?"

Shen Hua purses her lips.

She cautiously glanced outside the window. Cui Yun looks exceptional. Regal and unmatched.

Lips as if painted with vermilion, eyes like spots of lacquer, face like piled jade. However, the aura is forbiddingly cold and alienating, making people fear from a distance.

Shen Hua lowered her voice: "These days, I experience soul out-of-body."

Ni Kang remained silent.

Shen Hua: "A few days ago, I was floating in the air and saw something from five years ago."

Ni Kang expressionless: "How many times have you had this symptom?"

"The second time."

Shen Hua: "It’s always him."

If she could choose, Shen Hua would love to return to Shen Residence, when her Mama and brother were still around.

Ni Kang: "What did you see?"

"A girl or a young man?"

Without waiting for Shen Hua to respond, Ni Kang suddenly realized he still needed to check her head.

So young, yet plagued with illnesses?

Shen Hua faltered: "What exactly is happening to me?"

Ni Kang: "Delusion."

Ni Kang: "If the soul leaves the body, it means death, it definitely won’t happen as you just described. It must be due to high stress. Let me add a few more herbs to the medicinal bath recipe, then it will not be like this anymore."

Shen Hua was bewildered.

Is that so?

Yet every flower and every scene felt so real.

But Ni Kang spoke with such certainty, just as she began to doubt herself, Cui Yun calmly entered.

Shen Hua’s eyes were fixed on him, unblinking.

"Marquis."

Cui Yun saw the resentful look in her eyes, as if he wanted to flay and debone him.

He also saw Emperor He’s greed and hypocrisy.

His biological father’s sharpness and ambitious aspirations.

Old Master’s gratification and fury.

And the affectionate look of the noble family’s girls.

He had never seen Shen Hua like this before.

Shen Hua’s eyes, black and bright, clear, where joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness all resided. One could see right through her at a glance.

Shen Hua desperately watched her.

"Do you have a cousin named Wu Shaoyin?"

Cui Yun averted his gaze: "How did you know?"

He didn’t deny it!

Then it must be true!

Shen Hua felt complex emotions, she didn’t wish to discuss further, just shook her head sadly.

Ni Kang understood.

Shen Hua, being raised outside by Cui Yun, not yet part of the Marquis Mansion, naturally felt apprehensive, fearing that Cui Yun might be ensnared by a cousin from the mansion.

Thinking this, Ni Kang couldn’t help but speak to reassure her.

"The Wu Family has fallen; she’s not even worth a paper tiger."

Ni Kang: "Aside from Wu Shaoyin, our Marquis keeps himself clean, having little to do with other cousins."

Cui Yun has followed the rules scrupulously and adhered to norms for many years; only Shen Hua is an exception!

So Miss Shen! Your status is not threatened at all!
