Sure enough, after hearing this, Wu Sheyue just nodded casually and said, "Oh, she must have heard something."
Ning'er thought for a while and asked, "Did...did you hear what happened that night?"
"Yeah, I guess she should have heard it too." Wu Sheyue put the wooden carving in her hand on the table and carefully observed how to change it.
Ning'er couldn't tell what Wu Sheyue was doing from the sidelines. After looking at her for a long time, she sighed: "She's quite pitiful when I think about it..."
After hearing this, Wu Sheyue finally raised her head to look at her. Ning'er waved her hands nervously and said, "Oh, Miss, I understand. I don't sympathize with her. Ning'er will not be nice to anyone casually anymore."
Wu Sheyue lowered her head and continued.
At night, Ning'er went into the house to pick out a wick and asked with concern, "Aren't you still going to rest, Miss?"
"It will take a while."
Ning'er looked at the wood she was carving on her hand, and at first glance, it turned out to be a lifelike finger!
Ning'er shivered all over, "How many fingers do you want to do?" If I remember correctly, it was also fingers yesterday...
She didn't know when the young lady started this hobby. She did these scary things every day. If she had seen it before, she would have had nightmares for several days. She may have seen it too much recently, and her mentality On the contrary, it got much better.
Wu Sheyue shook her head dissatisfied and said: "These look like defective products. I must make the best quality ones. Hey... The old lady has another birthday, so I can't practice my skills. You can also help me by the way. Think about what to give... or you can go back." She said, standing her fingers on the table, and carving her nails carefully.
Ning'er asked in surprise: "These fingers look just like real ones, how can they be better... You don't want to give this as a gift, do you?"
"..." Are you crazy to give this as a gift
Seeing that Wu Sheyue didn't answer, Ning'er continued to talk, "Miss, don't stay up too late, your face will become dull. And... even if Bai Lian doesn't come into the house to serve her now, if someone sees her, there will be rumors again. Miss’s is not.”
"I know, so I hurry up." Wu Sheyue finally couldn't stand her nagging anymore, so she had to poke the carving knife on the table, and casually put the sawdust, wood blocks and semi-finished products into a box aside. , "It's okay if I don't do it."
When Ning'er saw that Wu Sheyue stopped, she quickly stepped forward to take the box and put it under the bed.
Ning'er made the bed there, while Wu Sheyue sat at the window in a daze. The breeze of the summer night blew in, and in my ears I could hear the ethereal chirping of cicadas outside, and a slight sigh, coming as softly as the whisper of the breeze.
Wu Sheyue asked softly: "What did you just say?"
Ning'er, who was making the bed, turned back blankly, "I... didn't say anything."
Wu Sheyue came back to her senses and asked cautiously: "Really? Did you hear anything?"
Ning'er walked to the window and looked out: "Could it be that Sisi and the others were awake and made some noise?"
Wu Sheyue waved her hands tiredly and said, "I've been a little sensitive lately. It's okay. You can go back." Maybe she should sleep well for two days.
After Ning'er went out, Wu Sheyue lingered for a long time before going to blow out the lamp. She walked to the bed in the dark, and before she got into bed, she heard a slight knock on the door behind her.
She subconsciously wanted to ask who it was, but the words got stuck in her throat before she could leave her mouth.
It must not be Ning'er, Ning'er went to the ear room. If it is a maid or a servant at home, she will speak when she knocks on the door. Who could it be in the middle of the night? !
Wu Sheyue looked at the door quietly in the darkness, feeling a little panicked.
The first time it was a mysterious note, the second time it was Wu Jinghua, the third time it was Wu Hantian... Is her yard so easy to enter? Different people caused trouble for her again and again.
Wu Sheyue thought, a hint of murderous intent flashed in her eyes, wondering what tricks these people were up to. She suddenly ran towards the table in two quick steps, put her foot on the table and jumped up. The moment she climbed out of the window, she picked up the carving knife that she had placed on the table.
The moment she landed outside the window, Wu Sheyue spread her legs and put her hands on the ground, and immediately stood up.
She looked up and saw a person standing at the door. He was tall, dressed in white and had dark hair, facing the door with his back to her. As soon as she saw that the person who came was indeed an unknown person, Wu Sheyue raised her arm and attacked, the sharp carving knife making a sound of wind in the air.
The person who was knocking on the door seemed to hear the sound and quickly turned around to look at Wu Sheyue.
At this moment when she turned around to face each other, Wu Sheyue, who had seen countless faces, actually had a stupid idea flash in her mind: Is he a boy or a girl
The other party's handsome outline looked particularly soft and cold under the moonlight. His thin lips were slightly pursed, and his eyes like falling meteors looked at Wu Sheyue calmly. If Wu Sheyue were asked to describe him concisely, then she could only think of one sentence: He is so handsome.
He or she, with long splashed hair simply tied up behind his head, and a white body without any unnecessary burdens, looks like a visitor from another world. However, his right hand is holding the head of a bluish-purple evil ghost with a very contrasting style? !
That was the ghost head that once scared Wu Jinghua. Later, Wu Sheyue hid it at the door. If someone wanted to sneak in in the middle of the night, it would be easy to knock the ghost head off.
The contrast between the beauty holding the ghost's head is really great, it's weird, harmonious and... mysterious
Wu Sheyue was surprised for a moment when the carving knife in her hand was already in front of the opponent.
However, the man raised his free left hand and pinched Wu Sheyue's wrist with his long fingers like lightning. Wu Sheyue took a painful breath, and the other party's hand twisted slightly, and the carving knife fell to the ground with a crisp sound.
"Who are you!" Wu Sheyue asked angrily in a low voice. This person was actually a very strong martial artist. She didn't want to attract Ning'er or anyone else, otherwise they would only be accidentally injured.
The other party did not answer immediately, but looked at Wu Sheyue for a few times. Of course Wu Sheyue was not convinced. She followed the strength of her hand and turned around, trying to twist her wrist out. However, the opponent suddenly exerted force on his fingertips. Wu Sheyue was even more unable to pull out her hand, so she used her other hand to grab his chest.
She wants to touch whether this is a boy or a girl!
However, the beauty in white was very indifferent. He held the ghost's hand and moved it upward. Wu Sheyue immediately dug into the ghost's face. She used all her strength to strike, and the blow made her fingers hurt, and she couldn't help but let out an ouch.
Immediately, the other party's cool and jade-like voice sounded: "Miss Wu San?"
Wu Sheyue pulled her hand and took two steps back in fear. The other party did not bother her, and loosened the hand that was holding Wu Sheyue as if to show her kindness.
The two looked at each other, and Wu Sheyue suspected that the other party didn't even know her at all. Also, I was only wearing a white shirt and trousers, my hair was loose, and I didn't have any valuables on me. It was dark, so maybe she was being treated as a maid keeping vigil in the house?
