C80 Paranoid

With this kind of explanation, it could be said that it made sense. Why did he only ask her to help him round up the friendship between an aunt and niece today?

Luo Mingshi sized up Sima Wan from the corner of her eyes and realized that she looked really similar to First Madame. It was just that First Madame was more arrogant and gentle compared to her cousin.

Hearing that, Luo Mingshi had a sudden realization. Sima Wan did not put on airs towards her, and her words were kind and amiable. Adding on what she had said, from the looks of it, she was really a friendly person.

He had been a little paranoid before.

Seeing Luo Mingshi not saying a word, Sima Wan thought she was feeling a little uncomfortable, so she said with a smile, "If you are willing to acknowledge this cousin of mine, then you should come and visit more in the future. Now that I am alone in this Jiangnan, I don't have any family members by my side, just looking at them makes me feel sorry for you.

These words could be said to be putting a low profile, if the Sima Clan's reputation were to spread, no one would not have to be courteous, but to Luo Mingshi, it would instead be lowered.

Luo Mingshi knew that she should never sleep like that, so she immediately agreed, "Thank you Aunt for your concern, your niece will definitely come to bother you a lot in the future."

At this moment, he didn't even have to use the word "watch" anymore. He directly called her aunt, seeming to be intimate with her and raise her status.

Sima Wan seemed to be also smiling when she heard it, as she became even more intimate with Luo Mingshi.

Just like that, the two of them were in a good mood, and the two of them slowly talked about how Luo Mingshi was doing in the Jiangnan.

When Sima Wan glanced at the hairpin on top of Luo Mingshi's head, her eyes lit up, and her smile became even more profound, to the point that Luo Mingshi was still a little confused. She only heard his cousin say, "Your mother treats you so well."

Seeing the look in Luo Mingshi's eyes, Sima Wan seemed to have no intention of answering his question, but she continued to say with a smile: "You will know in the future."

Luo Mingshi did not understand her meaning, but seeing that Sima Wan Ru did not want to say anymore, he decided not to pursue the matter anymore, and secretly paid attention to it in his heart.

Sima Wan's attitude had always been gentle, gentle, and understanding. When she invited Luo Mingshi to stay and have lunch with them, Luo Mingshi felt that it was hard to refuse.

After the meal, Sima Wan said, "I've already prepared a room for you. You can come and stay by yourself in the future. Quickly go and have a look, are you satisfied?"

The meaning of these words was that they had specially prepared a room for Luo Mingshi.

Luo Mingshi was surprised, but she laughed: "Aunt is so considerate."

As if seeing that Luo Mingshi did not reveal any of her intentions, Sima Wan still explained, "It's just a look, if you aren't used to it, you can reject me. Don't force yourself."

At this point, the last trace of reluctance in Luo Mingshi's heart had already disappeared. She could only smile and reply: "I'll go take a look right now."

As if seeing Luo Mingshi, Sima Wan became even more happy, she then led Luo Mingshi to the room that was meticulously prepared for her.

When Luo Mingshi pushed open the door to take a look, the attendant took a moment to think, the entire room's furnishings were completely different from the mansion's furnishings, because she was still an eleven year old girl, her attire was a little brighter, and with one glance, one could tell that she was a young girl's boudoir.

Although Luo Mingshi's mental state was no longer that of an ordinary child, she still thought about her aunt's painstaking efforts ? ?

Therefore, when Sima Wan suggested that they should take a short rest before going back, Luo Mingshi also agreed with her.

She had already gotten used to taking a nap, and now that it was time, she felt very tired. If she really had to rush back, even if she reached Luo Mansion, it would probably take more than an hour, so she shouldn't sleep anymore.

If so, why must he refuse?

Luo Mingshi readily agreed to her request. Sima Wan Ru was happy that Luo Mingshi had accepted her kindness, but she also saw how exhausted Luo Mingshi was, so she considerately left after closing the door, allowing Wang Chun to rest for a while. Luo Mingshi had a maid take her place.

Wang Chun firmly refused.

As if seeing Yangchun's insistence, Sima Wan didn't try to push him any further and just smiled as she left.

Although Sima Wan had such good intentions, since Wang Chun had experienced the sudden disappearance of Luo Mingshi, he had naturally not been willing to take another step further away from him.

Unbeknownst to them, their young miss was being held hostage by someone.

The moment Luo Mingshi entered the house, she smelled the stench of blood. Her instinct was not good, and she took a small step back.

However, even before she could escape, a cold dagger was already tightly pressed against her neck. She had no doubt that if she moved even the slightest bit, or if her pulse became even more violent, this dagger would be able to forever leave her dagger in this world.

"Better not move." A man's ice-cold voice that seemed to carry the coldness of an icy mountain stirred goosebumps all over Luo Mingshi's body.

Luo Mingshi did not plan to move from the start, but right now she was frozen in place, not daring to move.

Luo Mingshi frowned, this man's aura was just too strong.

If it was back then, Duan Li would have been fine, but now ?

Luo Mingshi couldn't help but sigh in her heart, but now that she had seen Sima Wan, she felt that Sima Wan would not do anything to her.

Indeed, it was still not enough to only have Duan Li as a secret guard.

Wang Chun was right outside the door, and was just a door's distance away from them. Luo Mingshi could not shout, but Wang Chun could, and how could she let Wang Chun know about her situation without him noticing?

Who knew that Wang Chun who was outside would suddenly ask softly: "Is Miss asleep?"

At the same time, Luo Mingshi felt that her fingers had tightened around hers.

Luo Mingshi did not dare to make a sound, and allowed the person who was pressing her to walk behind the screen. Only then did that person lean close to her ear and say: "You know what to say."

Luo Mingshi couldn't help but shiver. What a clever plan, he had to pull her here to allow her to reply.

Yes, she had already been in here for quite some time, if she still stood by the door and answered Wang Chun's question, wouldn't that distance be too obvious? Wang Chun would definitely discover that something was amiss.

However, his life was in the hands of someone else, and Luo Mingshi could not help but praise his intelligence.

He looked down on himself for a while before realizing that this person was injured. He could smell the thick scent of blood, so his injuries must have been quite severe.

However, if it was someone who had specially come to hurt her, how could they have been wounded all over? Luo Mingshi was certain in her heart, and had already thought of how she could resolve this situation.

All his thoughts were in a flash, and when the person pressed the dagger against her neck again, the threat was obvious.

Luo Mingshi did not hesitate at all, and asked: "What's the matter?"
