Free Web NovelChapter 1173: Chapter 1173: It’s Not Safe Here
"It seems like ’you can’t keep a grown daughter at home.’" Qin Yiheng retorted with a smile. ƒreewebηoveℓ.com
"Isn’t it the same with sons? Is it a problem with my parenting, or is it better to have daughters?" Old Madam shook her head.
"How could it be? How could it be?" Qin Yiheng’s face still bore a heavy smile.
Yu Wanqing watched the two people walking in front of her, harmonizing with each other, and immediately followed, but did not disturb them further.
Qin Yiheng seemed to be chatting with Old Madam, but was actually trying to understand her psychological world.
Yu Wanqing also had some understanding of psychology, and of course knew what Qin Yiheng intended to do.
Although she ultimately didn’t get any news about Xia Yinian, at least she was certain that they didn’t know about Old Madam being hypnotized.
In fact, Xia Yinian hadn’t gone anywhere but was practicing alchemy at Xi Garden next to Ling Garden.
She occasionally held binoculars and stood in a hidden corner upstairs to observe the situation in the Ling Garden yard.
The thought that it was likely Yu Wanqing who hypnotized Old Madam made her uneasy as well.
Yu Wanqing was so smart, it wouldn’t be easy to fool her.
With Qin Yiheng’s help, things were indeed much easier, but he liked Yu Wanqing, so the situation wasn’t so optimistic.
Xia Yinian didn’t doubt Qin Yiheng’s character, just that liking someone, and for so many years...
Whether Qin Yiheng could be completely natural in front of Yu Wanqing was still a question.
However, since Beicheng had faith in him, she shouldn’t doubt him either.
After a whole day’s work, Xia Yinian’s unease only grew.
Thinking about it, it seemed it wasn’t just about Grandma’s issue.
But she did call Feng Yan to confirm Grandpa’s situation was fine, so why did she still feel so uneasy?
Thinking about the man working hard outside, Xia Yinian found herself sleepless again tonight.
Even though her eyes were already closing, tossing and turning past two in the morning, she still felt no sleepiness.
Suddenly, someone knocked on the door from outside, startling Xia Yinian to spring up from the bed.
At this hour, it couldn’t be good news. Who could it be? Who would come to find her at this time?
Had something happened to Grandma? Or Grandpa? Or...
Xia Yinian dared not think further and immediately slipped on her slippers and ran to open the door.
Seeing Feng Yan standing outside, Xia Yinian almost forgot to breathe.
"Ah Yen, what happened? Is it Grandpa...?"
"No, pack up quickly, I’m taking you somewhere." Feng Yan still appeared relatively calm.
"Grandpa’s fine, right? But why are you here at this late hour..." Xia Yinian’s heart was about to leap out of her throat.
There was no reason to let her leave abruptly, especially now at two in the morning.
"This place is not safe for you. Grandpa is really fine. Quickly pack up, and I’ll take you away first," Feng Yan said in a deep voice.
Meeting his gaze, Xia Yinian nodded promptly.
"Got it."
Her heart throbbed painfully, just like tonight, with a constant, ominous premonition.
However, since it wasn’t Grandpa’s issue, she felt relieved.
If it were about Grandma, Ah Yen wouldn’t be the one informing her.
And Grandma was fine tonight, she’d spoken with Qin Yiheng on the phone.
Knowing it was for her safety, Xia Yinian felt she could finally breathe a sigh of relief, at least it wasn’t something concerning those she cared about. freёwebnovel.com
Responding, she immediately turned back to change her clothes, grabbing some essentials for emergencies.
