The Mad Heiress Played Innocent, and the Third Master Fell Hard - Chapter 18

He looked shocked and incredulous.

He couldn’t even hold onto his duffel bag and it fell down.

Jiang Dong suddenly appeared out of nowhere.

She silently helped him pick up his luggage.

Jiangxi swallowed hard and asked in a low voice, “Brother, is Grandpa possessed?”

Jiang Dong’s lips twitched. “No.”

“Could it be that my master has been possessed by a monster?” Jiangxi’s imagination ran wild.

Yu Guiwan popped the last candied fruit into her mouth and glanced towards the door.

She raised her eyebrows slightly.

Although they were a bit far apart, Jiang Yuhuai heard every single word Jiangxi said.

He glanced at the door, handed the candied fruit jar to the butler to put away, and then spoke.

“Come in.”

His deep voice carried a hint of authority.

The two brothers walked over in unison.

“Master.”

Jiang Yuhuai poured a glass of water and placed it in front of Yu Guiwan.

“Take a sip of water and rinse your mouth.”

Yu Guiwan picked up the cup.

The man then looked up and his gaze fell on Jiangxi.

“You’re back?”

“Yes, sir,” Jiangxi replied respectfully, glancing curiously at Yu Guiwan out of the corner of his eye.

Jiang Yuhuai succinctly instructed, “Jiang Dong should have already told you. From now on, you are responsible for protecting Wanwan’s safety. Under any circumstances, her safety is the top priority, and you are no different from me.”

Upon hearing this, even though Jiangxi was somewhat prepared, he still tried hard to suppress his shock.

He originally thought that Jiang Dong was just trying to get him to obediently stay by the young mistress’s side.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Yuhuai personally gave him these instructions.

Seeing that he was stunned, Jiang Dong pinched him expressionlessly.

The pain was sudden and unexpected.

Jiangxi people are grinning and grimacing.

I almost cried out.

He quickly lowered his head, adjusted his expression, and respectfully said, “Your subordinate understands.”

Then he turned to Yu Guiwan, bowed his head, and said, “This subordinate from Jiangxi greets the young mistress.”

Yu Guiwan tilted her head and spoke politely.

“Hello.”

She looked at Jiang Yuhuai, puzzled. “Why do I need someone to protect me? Is it dangerous here?”

Jiang Yuhuai asked her, “Don’t you like having people following you?”

Both Jiangdong and Jiangxi watched Yu Guiwan with considerable tension.

If she says she doesn’t like it, Jiangxi might continue to be exiled.

Yu Guiwan tilted her head, thought for a few seconds, and said, “It’s alright, isn’t it?”

She looked at Jiangxi and asked, “Are you going to follow me around all day?”

Jiangxi replied respectfully, “I won’t be following the young mistress around all the time she spends at Tan Garden.”

Yu Guiwan responded with an “oh,” and then asked, “Won’t you get bored?”

Jiangxi almost couldn’t hold back: “…?”

He hesitated for a moment, then said, “No.”

Yu Guiwan nodded. “That’s fine as long as you don’t know how.”

Jiang Yuhuai said, “Wanwan, it’s late, you should go to sleep.”

Yu Guiwan turned her gaze to him, “…”

They even control when she goes to sleep.

She obediently said “okay” and got up.

“Then I’m going to sleep.”

She hadn’t walked far when Jiang Yuhuai spoke up behind her, “You can’t watch TV before going to bed.”

Yu Guiwan went upstairs expressionlessly without looking back.

Jiang Yuhuai watched her retreating figure as she strode down the stairs, a barely perceptible smile playing on his lips.

Wait until his figure disappeared at the top of the stairs.

The gentleness on his face had just disappeared.

The man stood up. “Come with me to the study.”

“yes.”

The two silently followed the man upstairs.

…

The next day.

Yu Guiwan slept soundly again.

She slowly pulled open the drawer and reached her hand inside.

I touched the top of the inside of the drawer.

Hands outstretched.

Several packets of medicine appeared in my palm.

Before coming to Tan Yuan, she threw away the cumbersome bottle and replaced it with a very small sealed bag.

She skillfully poured out a few pills, threw them into her mouth, and swallowed them directly.

Then put the bag back in its original place.

The phone screen on the bedside table lit up.

Yu Guiwan reached out and took the phone.

Someone sent her a message.

[Hey bro, has the new product been finalized yet?]

Yu Guiwan paused for a moment, then rubbed her temples.

Since arriving in the capital, she has put aside many things in order to avoid arousing suspicion.

I almost forgot about that.

Yu Guiwan typed without changing her expression, “Almost there.”

After sending the message, she suddenly thought of the flowers and plants outside the villa.

Yeah, I’ll go grab a few rounds later.

…

Yu Guiwan changed her clothes and went downstairs.

She walked very slowly.

We were only halfway up the stairs.

Then we saw several people carrying in a huge object.

She suddenly stopped in her tracks.

Jiangxi suddenly appeared out of nowhere.

Good morning, young mistress.

Yu Guiwan glanced at him with a blank expression.

Jiangxi met her clear, bright eyes and felt a strange, familiar pressure in his heart.

He instinctively took a few steps back.

When he looked at Yu Guiwan again, the scene just now seemed like his illusion.

Jiangxi was completely baffled.

Yu Guiwan gripped the handrail and looked downstairs. “What’s that?”

Jiangxi replied, “A piano.”

Yu Guiwan remained expressionless once again.

Jiangxi coughed lightly and explained, “This is a piano that Grandpa had airlifted back for you to use in your lessons.”

As he spoke, he suddenly became very curious, “Young Madam, you… really never went to school?”

Yu Guiwan hummed in agreement, “No.”

“Why aren’t you in school? Doesn’t the Yu family pay for your tuition?”

Jiangxi has already imagined a whole TV drama-like storyline.

Yu Guiwan: “…”

She looked at Jiangxi with a rare silence, “Is going to school fun?”

Jiangxi choked.

Is it only allowed if it’s fun?

Yu Guiwan didn’t look at him again and continued to slowly go downstairs.

Those people moved the piano to a room on the first floor.

A moment later, melodious piano music came from inside.

Yu Guiwan originally planned to have breakfast at a restaurant.

She suddenly turned and followed the sound of the piano.

Jiangxi silently followed.

Yu Guiwan stood at the door, looking inside.

Jiangxi was curious and looked over as well.

Then I saw a familiar figure.

He wasn’t surprised, and whispered to Yu Guiwan, “Young Madam, Master is very good at playing the piano.”

Yu Guiwan didn’t say anything and listened to the piece of music quietly.

She slowly began to speak, “They are quite impressive.”

Jiangxi asked in surprise, “Young Madam, you understand?”

At this moment, Jiang Yuhuai also turned around.

His gaze landed precisely on Yu Guiwan.

It seemed like they were waiting for her answer.

Yu Guiwan tilted her head innocently, speaking in a matter-of-fact tone.

“I don’t understand.”

How could she possibly understand?

She’s a complete idiot now.

Jiangxi: “…”
