Chapter 428: The Wulin Leader’s Fiancée (44)
After receiving the news that Su Xiangran had returned home, Beitang Jing thought about going to Yuncheng to find her the next day. After all, whether it was He Ruochu's injury or Ling Moqing's poison, they were matters that could not be delayed.
When Doctor Qin learned of his itinerary, he immediately expressed his willingness to go along with him so that they could learn some medical skills.
Murong Fengyu, who knew that she and her son were going to find Su Xiangran, would of course go with them. She thought that although the two had broken off the engagement, they were still unmarried, so there might still be a chance.
I originally thought that these were all the people who were going to travel, but I didn't expect that when we were about to leave, He Ruochu also insisted on following.
"Second brother, since you are going to seek medical help for me, wouldn't it be more convenient for me to go with you?" He Ruochu, who had already changed into women's clothes, said to Beitang Jing in a soft voice, "Besides, I haven't settled the score with my eldest brother for injuring me!"
Thinking about the connection between the two, Beitang Jing finally decided to take her to Yuncheng.
So the group set off in a mighty procession.
Along the way, He Ruochu was very excited.
"I wonder if Big Brother will be happy to see me?" She kept muttering, "He accidentally hurt me before, I wonder if he feels guilty about me."
Murong Fengyu, who rarely rode in a carriage, frowned slightly because of her words.
Although He Ruochu used to travel the world as a man, judging from the current situation, she has adapted well to her identity as a woman.
That means she doesn't really think of herself as a man. Although she has the concept of gender in her mind, she doesn't avoid it at all when interacting with the opposite sex.
It was like this with her own son, and now when she kept mentioning the so-called "big brother", there was an indescribable intimacy in her tone.
Perhaps He Ruochu herself did not realize that although she was complaining all the time, there was an uncontrollable coquettishness in her.
Murong Fengyu has never liked people like this.
If she just didn't have a good impression of He Ruochu when she first met him, now she was definitely a little disgusted with this person.
On the other hand, Beitang Jing, who was riding a horse outside the carriage, had a cold look on his face, as if he didn't want anyone to approach him.
"Son, come here quickly." Murong Fengyu gently lifted the curtain of the carriage, leaned out half of her body, waved and shouted to the young man standing outside the carriage.
When Beitang Jing heard the voice, he walked to the car window expressionlessly, his eyes as cold as ice.
Seeing this, Murong Fengyu frowned slightly and said in a somewhat unhappy tone: "What's with that expression? Put it away!
This time, my mother and I have made a special trip to visit the Su Mansion. Why are you so cold and serious?
Are we going there to seek revenge or cause trouble? When we get to the Su residence, especially after meeting Xiao Ran, remember to be pleasant and polite, and don't lose your manners."
After hearing his mother's scolding, Beitang Jing's expression softened a little, but still looked very stiff.
"Did you hear that? Be sure to keep it in mind!" Murong Fengyu reminded him again with concern.
Beitang Jing nodded silently to show that he understood.
However, Murong Fengyu was still not satisfied with her son's performance and continued to nag: "What's the point of just nodding? Smile for me."
Beitang Jing was helpless, and forced a smile of his lips, revealing a bitter smile that was uglier than crying.
In fact, at the age of 15, he should be sunny, cheerful and energetic.
But after experiencing all kinds of difficulties in his previous life, Beitang Jing has long been calm. Few things can cause his emotions to fluctuate, let alone make him laugh heartily.
But Murong Fengyu didn't know these inside stories. She thought Beitang Jing was deliberately trying to show his displeasure to Su Xiangran.
Seeing his son's forced smile, he immediately became furious and waved his hand, saying, "Forget it, forget it, stop laughing. You look even uglier than crying!"
This comment made Beitang Jing very embarrassed. He put away the smile on his face, spurred his horse and ran to the front of the convoy.
"This kid, really, the older he gets, the more disobedient he becomes." Murong Fengyu complained to Nanny Wu beside her, "Is he like this in the yard all the time?"
Nanny Wu certainly didn't want to see her young master being despised by others, even his mother, so she advised: "Madam, the young master is grown up, it's only right for him to be more stable."
He Ruochu felt that at this time, she could also help to say: "Yes! Aunt, this will make Second Brother more dignified, and those people will be convinced by him."
Murong Fengyu glanced at her sideways and said bluntly: "My Jing'er was born as the young master of Yunjian Villa. This identity is much more useful than having a cold face."
Since she was a person walking in the world, He Ruochu also knew how to read people's faces. She knew, of course, that Murong Fengyu didn't like her, so she stopped talking.
Finally, they arrived at Cloud City.
Beitang Jing brought everyone directly to the gate of Su Mansion.
"It turns out to be the young master. What brings you here?" The guards at the door stopped them.
