Chapter 18 Where is he?
Shang Ruyi’s expression changed immediately after she got on the carriage. The pain in her back made her twitch. Tusheer hurriedly supported her, opened her collar and took a look——
Only A blood-red whip mark was seen, extending from the back of the neck, it was too horrible to look at.
Tu Sheer gasped and said distressedly: "Miss, why don't you cry out in pain?"
Shang Ruyi smiled bitterly and said: "You silly girl, cry out Can it stop hurting? ”
What's more, she was already embarrassed enough just now, and she didn't want to look even more embarrassed in front of Yu Wenye.
“But——”
“Stop it, help me see if there is any bleeding.”
Tusher checked carefully, although the whip marks were still there It was red and swollen, but fortunately, there was no bleeding due to the layer of clothing.
Shang Ruyi breathed a sigh of relief and said: "That's good. You can give me some medicine later and it will be fine. I was worried just now that if I was really injured, it would affect-"< br>
At this point, she blushed and stopped.
If she had heard this before, Tu Sheer would definitely have teased her a few words, but at this time, she was so distressed that she could not speak. He only leaned towards her collar and blew her a cool breeze. Give her a little less pain.
Shang Ruyi smiled and patted her shoulder.
When I raised my head again, the carriage shook, and the curtain on the window opened a gap, and I could see the familiar figure outside.
Yu Wenye held the rein in one hand and rode the horse leisurely right in front of the carriage.
When we met at Shen Mansion before, I thought he was tall and strong. Looking at him now, I realized that his shoulders were very broad and his back straight. Even when he was jolting on a horse, he looked like a tall man. Like a javelin.
After the scene just now, looking at his back, I always feel a little reassured.
Shang Ruyi's face started to turn red from his neck.
At this moment, she suddenly remembered something and let out a sigh of annoyance. Tusheer asked nervously: "Miss, what's wrong?" Shang Ruyi said: "I just forgot to tell him that we left the city before. The person I met when I was ”
Tusheer breathed a sigh of relief: "I thought it was a big deal. Anyway, the second young master has to escort us into the city. When we settle down later, it won't be too late to tell him."
"Yes."
Shang Ruyi nodded and leaned on the car board again, looking at Yu Wenye's tall back through the gap in the swaying curtain, and his heartbeat, which had calmed down because of being rescued, somehow , it seems a little messy again.
Maybe he was too nervous when he was escaping before. When he relaxed now, his whole body felt a little weak. Shang Ruyi leaned softly on Tu Sheer's shoulder. Tu Sheer said softly: "Miss Let’s sleep for a while. I’ll call you when I get to Taiyuan City.”
“…Yeah.”
Shang Ruyi nodded, almost losing the energy to say another word, and quickly closed his eyes.
When she woke up in the dark, it was already night.
She opened her eyes in a daze, and what she saw was a simple but clean room, and she was lying on a small bed. The mattress was soft and the curtains were low. It's quite comfortable.
Shang Ruyi moved, and just when he was about to call someone, Tusheer had already opened the door and walked in. Seeing that she was awake, he came over happily: "Miss, are you awake? Don't move around, put it on your back I just applied the medicine."
Shang Ruyi reluctantly turned his neck and saw that the whip marks on his back were covered with a layer of ointment, which was refreshing and not so painful.
She asked: "Where is this?"
Tusheer said: "This is the Duke's villa on the outskirts of the city. The Duke arranged for us to live here, and we will come here tomorrow to welcome the bride."
"Oh,"
Shang Ruyi nodded, looked around again, and said softly: "Where is he?"
