Immortal Skills - Chapter 859
859 Understand Another Woman’s Thoughts
Sure enough, Xia Qiyan looked at Xia Chenjing and Jiang Ming angrily and said, “What are these two doing?”
Jiang Ming knew that he had offended Xia Qiyan, so he said, “We thought something had happened. We had no choice but to charge into the library.”
Seeing that Jiang Ming and Xia Chenjing had made him look like a victim, Bai Heyu was furious. Then, he said, “I see that this library has already been destroyed. Who knows if the two of them really wanted to save me or had just come here to find something.”
Jiang Ming thought for a moment, glanced at Bai Heyu and Xia Qiyan, and then said to Xia Chenjing, “Let’s go.”
Xia Chenjing did not know what was going on and became even more confused. He asked Jiang Ming in his heart, “Ning Caichen, are we leaving just like this? Bai Heyu and Xia Qiyan’s true colors have been revealed. They wanted to kill us, so why did we let them go?”
“We haven’t found anything substantial yet. We’ll set off at night,” Jiang Ming said to Xia Chenjing in his heart, and Bai Heyu did not say anything.
His waist was in so much pain that he could not speak.
Xia Qiyan’s heart ached when she saw Bai Heyu’s expression. She helped him to her courtyard.
Then, she heard that the secret guards had captured Ling Yunxiao, and Xia Qiyan could not help but feel a sense of pleasure. Then, she followed Bai Heyu and said, “I think we should kill Ling Yunxiao. Ning Caichen is so arrogant.”
Bai Heyu shook his head and said, “We still need that appointed person. If we accidentally anger him, it will not be worth it if he leaves. We still have to wait and see. However, Ling Yunxiao should still be locked up like this. Since he dares to do such a thing, then your house will not be peaceful.”
“That’s true. I don’t know why Ling Yunxiao is looking for me, but he definitely doesn’t have any good intentions.”
Xia Qiyan also felt that Bai Heyu’s words made sense, so she immediately followed the guard and said, “Just do as Bai Heyu says.”
Just as Bai Heyu was thinking, Jiang Ming noticed that Ling Yunxiao had not returned. He immediately asked Liang Sisi and Sikong Wuyuan, “Why isn’t Ling Yunxiao back yet? Where is Ling Yunxiao now?”
Liang Sisi was also confused. “I thought you came back together. I don’t know where Ling Yunxiao is now. Could it be that he was having a good chat with Xia Qiyan?”
“Didn’t he say that Xia Qiyan looked like an old friend of his?” Sikong Wuyuan also teased. “Perhaps the two of them already know each other.”
Xia Chenjing shook his head. “Xia Qiyan came to the library and left with Bai Heyu. If that was the case, she should have brought Ling Yunxiao along.”
“I’m afraid something has happened to Ling Yunxiao. Let’s wait and see. If Ling Yunxiao doesn’t come in a while, something must have happened,” Jiang Ming thought for a moment and said to everyone.
The others felt that what Jiang Ming said made sense and nodded immediately.
After a while, they still did not see Ling Yunxiao, and they immediately became anxious.
Jiang Ming stood up and said, “Go and ask Xia Qiyan. She should know where Ling Yunxiao went.”
“I’ll go with you.” Liang Sisi stepped forward. “As a woman, I’ll understand another woman’s thoughts better. I might be able to tell what Xia Qiyan is up to.”
Jiang Ming felt that what Liang Sisi said made sense, so he nodded and agreed.
Xia Chenjing immediately said, “Then I’ll go with you. Who knows if Xia Qiyan will make a move? It’s safer if we all go.”
“What about Sikong Wuyuan? There’s no one to take care of Sikong Wuyuan. Who knows what might happen if these servants stay here?” Liang Sisi rubbed her chin and asked worriedly.
Sikong Wuyuan said indifferently, “It’s nothing. Don’t worry. No matter what, I won’t be unable to take care of myself.”
However, Liang Sisi still insisted, “Xia Chenjing, please stay. I’m really worried.”
Sikong Wuyuan was touched by Liang Sisi’s persistence, so he listened to her and did not say anything.
When Xia Chenjing heard this, he said straightforwardly, “Then I’ll stay.”
In the end, he looked at Jiang Ming and said, “No matter what, you have to be careful. If there’s anything, send me a signal.”
Jiang Ming understood Xia Chen’s thoughts. He nodded and left with Liang Sisi.
At this moment, in Xia Qiyan’s courtyard, she was taking care of Bai Heyu.
Xia Qiyan heard the servants tell her that Jiang Ming had brought Liang Sisi over. She asked the servants about it and roughly understood why Jiang Ming had brought Liang Sisi along.
They were probably here for Ling Yunxiao.
Bai Heyu’s eyes were originally closed, but now they were open. He looked at Xia Qiyan and said, “I’ll go with you. I want to see what Ning Caichen wants to do. I won’t hand over Ling Yunxiao.”
Xia Qiyan understood what Bai Heyu was thinking and comforted him, “Didn’t you say that there was still a big plan to follow? If the plan is ruined because of Ling Yunxiao, then the gains will not make up for the losses.”
Bai Heyu thought for a moment and agreed. However, he slammed his hand on the bed again.
The bed almost split apart as he moved.
“If Ning Caichen dares to do anything to you, then I won’t follow this plan.”
Xia Qiyan smiled and said to Bai Heyu, “Don’t worry, Ning Caichen can’t do anything to me. I’m not that weak now. You can rest here. Don’t think too much.”
In the main living room, Jiang Ming was sitting on a chair.
Liang Sisi also sat down.
She felt a little strange.
Why hadn’t Xia Qiyan come over after so long?
After Xia Qiyan had appeased Bai Heyu, she walked over lightly.
This was Liang Sisi’s first time seeing Xia Qiyan. Xia Qiyan was not the prettiest, but she had the air of a young lady from a wealthy family.
She smiled and said to Jiang Ming and Liang Sisi, “I wonder why you came to see me, Lord Ning Caichen? And who is this lady?”
As she spoke, her eyes scanned Liang Sisi.
Liang Sisi knew what Xia Qiyan meant, so she introduced herself, “I’m a subordinate of Lord Ning Caichen. You can call me Liang Sisi.”
“Alright, Miss Liang Sisi. Please serve her some refreshments.”
She then instructed the servant beside her.
