Rebirth: The Courtyard Bride Is Cool and Radiant Chapter 562: It Was My Oversight

Because he hadn’t figured out who that man was, he felt quite embarrassed, especially since his old man had often thrown him into military training, yet he couldn’t even handle sothing this trivial.

Recalling what he heard, he quickly composed himself: "Zhong Liyuan whispered sothing in that man’s ear, and the man confidently assured Zhong Liyuan that nothing was impossible when he was involved.

After saying that, the man forcibly dragged Zhong Liyuan to a nearby wind-sheltered spot, clearly pre-arranged, with straw laid on the ground. The two of them, not fearing the cold, started engaging in so scandalous actions there.

When they were done, I heard the man ask Zhong Liyuan when his return to the city could be arranged?"

Huo Jingrui thought to himself: Couldn’t believe Zhong Liyuan would go to such lengths to complete the task swiftly. If he’s guessing right, that man is Guo Aibing, who went to the countryside with Lun Huaijing and Tao Yuran to build a house and move out. Lun Huaijing probably never thought there was a real villain by his side, right?

After they finished discussing, Yunyi ca out with a bowl of water: "Qiao Wenyu, I added so brown sugar for you, drink it while it’s hot."

Qiao Wenyu didn’t hold back: "Thanks, Yunyi."

Braving the heat, he gulped down several mouthfuls of the sugary water: "Ah, comfortable. My body finally feels warm again."

Yunyi was about to ask if he wanted sothing to eat, but Qiao Wenyu greeted them and turned to leave swiftly: "I’m afraid Zijia will worry, so I’ll head back first."

Once he was gone, Yunyi asked: "You’re leaving now?"

Huo Jingrui nodded: "Yes, I’m leaving imdiately. It seems very likely they’ll take action tonight or tomorrow morning, so there’s no ti to waste."

Based on Zhong Liyuan’s reaction, there must be soone from the Red Committee involved, so they must act in advance. They fear that once Lun Huaijing is taken away, he might be swapped and relocated.

Yunyi also understood the gravity of the situation, turning back inside to bring out a water flask: "Take this with you. Who knows how late you’ll be busy. Drink so if you get tired, and please be safe."

Huo Jingrui felt a warmth in his heart, taking the flask, he gave Yunyi a hug: "Thank you, Yi’er, I’ll be careful."

Shortly after, he released her: "Lock the door and rest early."

Yunyi watched him leave and then closed the courtyard gate.

Back inside, she changed clothes, packed the items to be brought to her master and the grandchild, and stored them before climbing over the wall to leave.

When she arrived, the two still hadn’t rested: "Grandpa, isn’t Master coming soon?"

"Do you miss your Master?"

"Yes."

Yunyi knocked on the door, but the pattern was different from usual.

Yuan Zining, hearing the knock, asked vigilantly: "Who’s there?"

Yuan Yuxun was also startled, fearing soone overheard their conversation, and quickly got off the bed, ready for whatever might happen.

Not wanting to scare the two, Yunyi whispered: "It’s ."

Yuan Zining imdiately jumped off the bed, opening the door before his grandfather, though he was too excited to shout.

Confirming the visitor was the one he missed, he said, aggrievedly: "Master, you scared . I thought those bad people were back again."

anwhile, Yuan Yuxun added: "I was careless, good thing you reminded . I’m really getting senile."
