Yao Ying actually knew that something didn鈥檛 sit well with Yao Ling and the latter even searched for Ning Jie in a hurry because she needed the latter鈥檚 help as soon as possible. It wasn鈥檛 like Yao Ling鈥檚 usual self because she seemed to be in a panic and her calm bearing was gone.
What made her become so agitated ah~?!
He actually wanted to investigate this matter as well but he changed his mind at the last minute. After all, he respected her. Even though he didn鈥檛 like that there was a secret between them, he knew that he had to give her some space. Despite his curiosity, he held himself back really well. Sooner or later, she would certainly tell him about it. He trusted her that much and hoped that she could fo the same as well.
However, the thing that concerned him the most was Yao Ling鈥檚 behaviors lately. She couldn鈥檛 seem to concentrate and she kept staring blankly at nothing --- seemingly thinking about something important. Whenever he asked the reason, she would just force a smile and pretend that she was fine.
"Are you really okay? Why don鈥檛 you tell me if you have something in your mind?" Yao Ying asked Yao Ling who kept dazing inside their room with a sigh. How could she say that it was nothing when she behaved like this?
Yao Ying didn鈥檛 know that her mind kept thinking the worse. Who was that woman? What was her relationship with Yao Ying before this? Was Yao Ying really the person that she was looking for? What if he remembered her? What if he left her because of that woman?
So many thoughts had been swirling inside her mind over and over again and none of them was a good one...
Yao Ling jumped up in surprise when she heard Yao Ying鈥檚 voice behind her. She clutched her chest because of the surprise and laughed awkwardly. "I鈥檓 really okay..." She answered with a more genuine smile but her heart was still fluctuating.
Yao Ying sighed, knowing that he wouldn鈥檛 get the answer tonight. "Then, let鈥檚 go to sleep..." He suggested with a gentle smile.
Yao Ling nodded her head and laid beside him while Yao Ying was hugging her from behind. However, both of them still had a restless night. They decided not to talk about this matter but the woman would appear soon in their life and make a fluctuation in their peaceful life.
It took one day for Ning Jie to find information about that woman and her trope. They came from the Qin Kingdom which made Yao Ling furrow her eyebrows --- she didn鈥檛 feel surprised about that because she had guessed that Yao Ying must have a certain connection with the Qin Kingdom.
Ning Jie could only find a little about the woman --- after all, she had always following this trope ever since a little girl. She tried to see whether Yao Ying was a part of the trope or not and they couldn鈥檛 find a person that fitted Yao Ying鈥檚 description.
Yao Ying wasn鈥檛 a part of the trope so they couldn鈥檛 find out the connection between him and this woman. After all, the woman had never stayed in one place due to her trope鈥檚 schedule. The woman鈥檚 name was Ying Ying --- she was actually a nobody in the Qin Kingdom.
However, judging from Yao Ying鈥檚 aura and behavior, he didn鈥檛 seem to be an ordinary person. Then, who was he actually?!
At first, Ning Jie didn鈥檛 understand why Yao Ling was so concerned about this Ying Ying person because she didn鈥檛 seem to have any connection with them whatsoever. But... who knew that something like that would occur? Ning Jie wanted to say something but she was a bit hesitant.
"And...?" Yao Ling asked Ning Jie who sat in front of her while drinking tea.
"The woman is asking around about your husband..." Ning Jie said in a low voice.
Yao Ling started to be nervous when she heard this. It seemed like she didn鈥檛 guess it wrongly. "How can you be so sure that it鈥檚 my husband?" Yao Ling asked in hesitation. She didn鈥檛 specify tell him that the woman really knew Yao Ying before...
"She鈥檚 asking around while holding the drawing of your husband鈥檚 face..." Ning Jie explained while pulling out something from her sleeve. She gave Yao Ling a piece of dirty scroll. Yao Ling opened it with a trembling hand and indeed, it was Yao Ying鈥檚 drawing. Fortunately, the painting only looked five to six points to Yao Ying --- maybe because she didn鈥檛 have the money to hire a better painter.
"Do many people know about this matter?" Yao Ling asked worriedly.
"The woman has made such a big move. How could people not know about it? I鈥檓 pretty sure that people would soon realize that it鈥檚 your husband. You should take care of this matter before it鈥檚 getting bigger and turning into a mess," Ning Jie said.
Yao Ling鈥檚 body was trembling in fear. "And then...? Has she found out anything about Yao Ying?" Yao Ling asked worriedly.
Ning Jie patted her hand. "Don鈥檛 worry! For the time being, I鈥檓 able to suppress this matter. Fortunately, the first person that she has asked was our people. We make a promise that we would tell her once we get more information about the man in the painting."
The woman believed their people because the former had no other choice. Not only that, but she couldn鈥檛 get out of the trope鈥檚 tent for a long time.
Yao Ling nodded her head and said her thanks to Ning Jie. "What a coincidence!" Yao Ling sighed in relief. At least, she could deal with the matter before it blew up. She felt really dizzy and started to massage her own forehead to calm herself down.
Ning Jie looked at her weirdly, feeling that Yao Ling was a bit funny.
"What?" Yao Ling asked while holding her face. "Is there something on my face?"
"Why do you look so worried?" Ning Jie asked her out of curiosity.
Yao Ling bit her lower lip and finally, decided to tell Ning Jie everything. If she kept bottling up her feelings inside her mind, she would become crazy in no time. She had no confidence in herself --- it might be because of her pregnancy, she became more sensitive than usual.
Ning Jie flicked Yao Ling鈥檚 forehead softly. Even though she was working for Yao Ling, the latter treated her like a dear sister so she did the same as well. Thus, she wasn鈥檛 hesitant to say the next sentence.
"Why are you being so stupid?!" Ning Jie chided her.
Yao Ling held her forehead and pouted childishly. "How could that be? I鈥檓 not stupid!"
Ning Jie rolled her eyes. "You made a stupid decision this one time... and you don鈥檛 even realize it yourself..."
"What do you mean?" Yao Ling asked in surprise.
"Shouldn鈥檛 you trust your husband a bit more?" Ning Jie asked while raising one of his eyebrows.
Yao Ling couldn鈥檛 answer Ning Jie because she knew by keeping this as a secret, it meant that she was doubting Yao Ying鈥檚 feelings and personalities. "But..." Yao Ling didn鈥檛 know how to refute Ning Jie鈥檚 words.
