The Fourth Prince said: “This Yunxiang County Lord doesn’t seem like the poisonous woman you described. A woman who helps an injured kitten doesn’t seem so bad. Are you misunderstanding her?”
Si Yi remained silent. The Ning Wanwan he had come to know was different from the one Tong’er had described.
He was no longer certain if he had misunderstood her, but that day at the Zishantang gate, Ning Wanwan had clearly threatened him that if he dared to marry her, she would disrupt his harem forever. Such words suggested a vicious and jealous heart.
He shook his head, warning himself that Ning Wanwan was calculating and trying to confuse him, so he must not be deceived.
Momentarily distracted from the thought of secretly taking away Sihan’s medical case from the Shangyao Bureau, she put down the scroll, climbed to the bedside, and pushed open the window.
A chilly breeze swept over her face, revealing snowflakes drifting in the moonlight, with the ground covered in thick snow.
Fubyi turned and exclaimed, “Miss, it’s really snowing!”
Zhanxiang was awakened by Fubyi’s voice, rubbing her eyes and looking outside. The next moment, her eyes sparkled as she shouted, “Wow, what a big snow…”
The heavy snow evoked childhood memories for Ning Wanwan. She suddenly became playful, sliding down from the bed, putting on her phoenix-head shoes, and rushing outside.
“Miss, slow down—” Fubyi hurriedly took out a green cloud fur coat and followed her out.
Ning Wanwan stood under the corridor, reaching out to catch the snowflakes flying from the eaves, soon filling her hand.
Fubyi quickly draped the green cloud fur coat over Ning Wanwan, muttering, “Look how anxious the miss is, rushing out without a thick coat.”
It’s snowing heavily outside. What if she catches a cold?
A flash of inspiration struck Ning Wanwan’s mind. She had finally thought of a way to retrieve Sihan’s medical case.
“Miss, let’s go inside. The snow looks like it’s getting heavier,” Fubyi urged.
But Ning Wanwan smiled and walked down the steps, spreading her arms to embrace the snowflakes. “The bigger, the better! We can make snowmen and have a snowball fight.”
