Chapter 143: Sneaking Out
Wei Jin was lying on the bed when he heard someone faintly playing the tune of "Love Song" outside.
I thought I was dreaming, but I couldn't help but think of the song we sang together that day.
I couldn't help but hum softly.
After humming a few times, I realized something was wrong!
It seems like someone is really playing the suona outside.
"Wei Hui, is there anyone playing the suona outside?"
"Yes! Miss, it's been blowing for several hours!"
Wei Hui gently pushed the door open and walked in.
"It's been blowing for hours, why can't I hear it?"
"Miss, you've been having a fever, so you didn't hear it! Is it too noisy? I'll go get him to blow somewhere else!"
"No!" Wei Jin sat up suddenly.
"Call him in! I have something to ask him!"
"Miss, can you ask the suona player to come in?"
"Yes!" Wei Jin's mind raced, this song must have been played by someone he asked!
He came to find me!
Where is he?
"Yes, miss!"
Wei Hui ran out and quickly called the old man playing the suona in and stood at the door.
"Miss, he's here!"
"Who taught you to play the suona that you just played?"
Wei Jin asked from inside the room.
"To answer the young lady, it was a young man who gave us some silver and asked us to blow it repeatedly in the alley?"
"Sir, what does he look like?"
Wei Jin’s heart was about to jump out!
"Two young masters, one is older and the other is younger!"
"Where are they?" Wei Jin was absolutely certain that it was Andy Lau and his brother Liu Dezhu.
"At the butcher Xie Er's house, are you looking for them, young lady?"
The old man was very happy, as he could earn an extra ten taels of silver.
"No!" Wei Jin replied. She knew in her heart that she had no choice.
I suddenly thought of the emperor's marriage arrangement. What else could I do?
Can I still run out to find him now?
"Get out, and don't tell that young master that you've seen us!"
"Ah? Yes?"
Of course the old man knew that this was the residence of Duke Beiyang, an existence that could not be provoked.
"Stop bragging outside and go home! Wei Hui, give him fifty taels of silver!"
Wei Jin explained.
"Yes, miss!"
"Get out!"
Wei Hui went out and gave the old man fifty taels of silver, then asked for the detailed address and went around in circles before going back.
The old man was overjoyed.
This is really a fortune. Why don’t you go home and sleep well for three months?
"Little sister, where's daddy?"
Wei Mi quickly came in from outside and discussed something with Wei Huan.
"I don't know. He hasn't been to my place. What's the matter?"
Wei Jin could hear Wei Mi breathing heavily.
"Nothing, just something!" Wei Mi certainly didn't dare to tell Wei Jin what he was going to do, so he left immediately.
"Miss, is the young man looking for you to play some music?"
Wei Hui came back soon.
"I think so! He sang this song to me that night in Yangcheng!"
Wei Hui felt much better at this time.
Wei Hui touched Wei Jin's forehead to see if he had a fever.
Fortunately, the temperature has dropped now.
Seeing Wei Jin's haggard appearance, Wei Hui said slowly, "Miss, is love really so painful? Look at how haggard you are!"
"Haha! How should I know?"
Wei Jin bit her lip.
"If we had known earlier, we wouldn't have gone to Yangcheng, we wouldn't have met Master Liu, and the young lady wouldn't be so sad!"
"This is all destined! What else can we do?"
Wei Jin's thoughts have been wandering in the memories of the past few days.
"Just like the song goes, perhaps tomorrow when the sun sets and the weary birds return, you will have already embarked on the old journey home. It is rare to find a partner who understands you again in this life, and after all, life cannot let go of the blue sky with white clouds!"
Wei Jin spoke while singing softly.
It's rare to find a partner who understands you again in life, but I have to be with that silly prince in the future.
But I can't resist!
"Miss, if you continue like this, how can your body bear it?"
Wei Hui also felt very uncomfortable.
"I know! But what can I do? I wish I could just die of illness! That way I wouldn't have to remember him!"
Having said that, tears fell again.
"If Master Liu knew your feelings, he would understand you!"
"I don't know if he remembers me and thinks of me in his heart!"
"He was looking for you in Luojing, playing suona music. Of course he was thinking of you!"
"I didn't know he would come to me like this, but what can I do?"
"Or, you can go out quietly and meet him!" Wei Hui lowered her voice.
"See him? No!"
Wei Jin immediately denied it.
"Miss, in fact, if you meet him and explain things to him, and then let him go back to Qiyang, wouldn't it be better if we didn't see each other from now on?"
"Meet him?"
Wei Jin lowered his voice.
"That's right! Miss, if you don't see Master Liu, it would be fine if he went back to Qiyang, but what if he gets depressed and falls ill like you did?"
"He, he is a man, no way!"
"Miss, I don't know what love is, but I think you feel bad like this, even though he is a man, he will feel bad too!"
Wei Hui could only guess.
"Then, what to do?"
Although Wei Jin was ready to marry the prince, she really hoped that Andy Lau would be fine!
"So, I think it's better for you to go out and meet him. As long as you ask him to go back to Qiyang, he will understand you!"
"That's a good idea, but how do we get out?"
Wei Jin was already moved.
"Miss, don't you remember there's a small door in the woodshed that you can use to get out? We used to sneak out to play when we were little!"
"Yes! I know, but what if Dad comes back and finds that I'm not here?"
"You and I exchanged clothes. Since you're not feeling well right now, I'll pretend you're sleeping with your head covered. When the master comes back, I'll just agree to it!"
"No, what if father comes looking for you?"
"I just went out the door and told the housekeeper that I was going out, and then I came back quietly from the woodshed!" Wei Hui had already thought of a solution.
I even checked the route myself.
"Really?" Wei Jin felt much more energetic.
"Really! And I just made sure I knew. Young Master Liu is still waiting at the home of Xie the Butcher at the intersection of Yongpingfang Road!"
"Okay! I'll go out for a while and be back soon. Just sleep on the bed and don't go out!"
"Ok!"
"Also, I just left a set of black clothes in the woodshed. Go into the woodshed and change your clothes, then quietly leave. Make sure no one notices!"
"You're so thoughtful!"
Wei Jin felt a little grateful.
After they finished talking, they quickly exchanged clothes.
"Miss, you are exhausted now. Drink this bowl of bird's nest, otherwise you will have no strength!"
Wei Hui immediately handed over the still warm bird's nest.
Thinking about going out, I really need to replenish my energy.
Wei Jin wolfed down a bowl of bird's nest.
"dessert!"
Wei Hui picked up two more snacks and put them in her pocket for Wei Jin to carry.
Wei Jin didn't stop him, as he found himself really hungry at this moment.
Is this the power of love?
He quickly slipped out of the woodshed. Although he was still a little weak, he felt much better after eating something.
Thinking that he would see Liu Zhao soon, he supported himself and walked slowly towards Yongpingfang.
