Chapter 622: Calm

Translator: Henyee Translations

The haggard young ladies held the talismans in their hands tightly. As long as they reached home, everything would be fine.

Everyone was on edge.

One day, two days, three days…

The pair of terrifying eyes did not appear, and no woman was missing.

The capital had already been searched several times over, but the person who made people afraid seemed to have disappeared.

Su Yanyu took the jar from the corner of the wall and walked out. Seeing Liu Sanniang sitting in the courtyard embroidering, he walked over. “Shifu, that stinky rat seems to have disappeared. It probably left the capital.”

It had been three to five days since anyone felt that they were being watched, so they gradually let down their guard.

The Lantern Festival was coming.

The capital was bustling with activity. Liu Sanniang also looked better. Su Yanyu felt that this year’s Lantern Festival would be more fun.

Liu Sanniang said, “Show me your worm jar.”

Su Yanyu opened the jar. There was a milky-white worm inside. It was motionless like a cocoon. Liu Sanniang looked at Su Yanyu, who was carefully waiting for praise, and said, “You’ve improved a lot.”

Su Yanyu was overjoyed. There was hope for him to become the Worm King.

Su Yanyu put away the jar. “I’ll work hard to be better.”

Liu Sanniang nodded.

There was a knock on the door. Su Yanyu quickly went to open the door. Wei Shilai nodded at Su Yanyu and said, “Young Marquis Su, you are also here.”

Su Yanyu replied. “Lord Wei, come in.”

Wei Shilai looked at Su Yanyu and found it unbelievable that he was so meek. He still remembered how arrogant and domineering Su Yanyu was back in the day.

Wei Shilai entered the courtyard and smiled at Liu Sanniang. “Miss Liu, now that the capital is peaceful, I’m here to take Meng home.”

Wei Meng came out. She still did not want to leave. She looked at Liu Sanniang, pursed her lips, and shouted. “Father, why did you come?’

Wei Meng blinked at Wei Shilai.

Wei Shilai did not know whether to laugh or cry. “Meng, I’m here to take you back.”

Wei Meng pouted. “Father, we haven’t caught that evil person yet. Why are you taking me back now…”

Wei Shilai said, “Your mother misses you quite a lot. It’s been peaceful these days, so 1 thought I’d take you home to see your mother.”

Wei Meng pursed her lips. “Then, let’s go home. Even if that evil person really comes for me, I’m not afraid. I’ve recently made a short sword out of peach wood. If he really dares to come, I’ll stab him to death first.”

Wei Shilai did not know what to say. He only thought that his daughter was just boasting.

Liu Sanniang looked at Wei Meng. “Why aren’t you afraid?”

Wei Meng said seriously, “He doesn’t even dare to show his face. He just has some strange ability. If he really comes in front of me, he will be subdued in no time. I think the scariest thing about him is that he can suddenly take people away. I heard that he was burnt twice. This shows that he’s not that invincible.”

Wei Shilai did not take it seriously. He smiled and said, “Thank you for taking care of my daughter these few days, Miss Liu. Meng is spouting nonsense. Don’t take it to heart. If she is really face to face with that evil man, I think she will immediately be scared to tears.”

When Wei Meng heard Wei Shilai undermining her, she immediately retorted. “I won’t.”

Wei Shilai held Wei Meng’s hand and smiled at Liu Sanniang. “Goodbye.”

Wei Meng turned around and waved at Liu Sanniang. “Goodbye, Miss Liu.”

Wei Shilai took Wei Meng back.

Su Yanyu shrugged. “See, most of the people in the capital think that they are out of danger.”

Liu Sanniang lowered her eyes and said softly, “1 hope the danger is really gone.”

It would be good if the evil doer could repent.

Su Yanyu took the jar and returned to the Marquis Mansion. The first thing he had to do was to make incense and refine more worms.

This was what he should be focused on from now on.

Hu Yu and Liu Yuanyuan also returned at night. Everything was normal in the capital.

Hu Yu nibbled on the drumstick and narrowed her fox-like eyes in satisfaction.

Liu Sanniang gave another drumstick to Hu Yu. “Has anything happened in the Lin Mansion?”

Liu Yuanyuan shook her head. “Miss Lin puts the talisman on her chest while sleeping every day. There are at least eight guards in her room, and her maidservants are also with her at all times.”

Liu Sanniang drank the soup. “Let’s observe for a few more days.”

Liu Yuanyuan nodded and said, “There’s no movement in the princess’s mansion either. The servants said that the evil person is afraid of the princess, so he didn’t dare to come and get the antidote for his mother. Without the antidote, his mother will definitely die. The evil person has been taught a lesson and doesn’t dare to do evil again.”

Liu Sanniang said calmly, “I don’t think so. Focus on protecting Lin Shuran.”

All kinds of signs were indicating that everything was returning to normal, but Liu Sanniang knew that this was not the case. She didn’t catch him that time, and it would be very difficult to catch him again.

Liu Yuanyuan and Hu Yu listened to Liu Sanniang’s instructions and went to the Lin Mansion.

Liu Sanniang returned to her room and picked up the cinnabar brush to draw.

Chu Yan brought in a bowl of sweet soup. Liu Sanniang sat down and started drinking the sweet soup with a spoon.

After Liu Sanniang finished drinking, she burped. She looked at Chu Yan and asked. “Chu Yan, he is still around, right?”

Chu Yan looked at Liu Sanniang and nodded slightly. “He’s always been around. Xia Qiluo won’t be able to subdue him and will only make things worse.”

“Will more people die?”

Chu Yan held Liu Sanniang’s hand and brought her to the courtyard to look at the sky. “People will die, but they won’t die in vain.”

Liu Sanniang looked up at the sky. It was dark without a star. No one knew what would happen when the darkness attacked..
