Ke Zhenqiu looked at Jiang Youzhen with a hint of amusement in his eyes.
Jiang Youzhen glanced at him quickly. If this person was not here, she could easily avoid him, but now she was not sure whether he would hide it for her.
"Come with me!" Ke Zhenqiu said, and then walked quickly in front.
Jiang Youzhen followed closely behind, and then saw Ke Zhenqiu walk into the bedroom.
Then the other party suddenly pointed at the quilt on the bed and said, "Get in!"
"Mr. Ke? Could you please give me a favor?" An urging voice came from outside.
Hearing the urging from outside, Jiang Youzhen could only lift the quilt and crawl in. Then she heard the rustling sounds of clothes being taken off outside.
She lifted a corner of the quilt and saw that Jiang was taking off his outer robe.
At this glance, she understood the other party's intention. Soon, Ke Zhenqiu also came in, and Jiang Youzhen immediately shrank back.
"Master Ke, I'm sorry to bother you! I heard from the guards that some thugs had come into the yard. They wanted to come in and search for your safety. Master, what do you think?"
A steward came to the door and knocked.
"I have already gone to bed, but I didn't find any villains. If they are worried, let them come in and take a look!" Ke Zhenqiu said in a flat tone.
Soon a group of guards came in. At this time, Ke Zhenqiu lifted a corner of the quilt, got off the bed, and then put on his outer robe.
The guards and the steward were surprised that Ke Zhenqiu had gone to bed so early. They looked at the bed at the same time, but did not find anything unusual.
"I'm sorry to bother you, sir. I didn't expect you to go to bed so early." The manager was very confused and couldn't help but say.
"Go ahead and search! I didn't find anything unusual after I came in. I drank a lot of wine tonight and I was a little drunk. I was planning to rest early."
"I'm sorry, Mr. Ke!" The guard looked at Ke Zhenqiu who was wearing an outer robe, and then quickly began to search the house.
He searched on the beams, behind the screen, in the washroom and outer room, and even next to the bookshelf. He almost turned the entire house upside down but still couldn't find Jiang Youzhen.
Finally, they set their sights on Ke Zhenqiu's bed, but looking at the height of the quilt, it didn't look like someone could hide inside.
But how could they feel at ease without turning it over? So he looked at Ke Zhenqiu apologetically, "Mr. Ke, can you let me take a look at the quilt?"
Ke Zhenqiu immediately looked at the guard who spoke, his eyes very sharp.
"I allowed you to search for him because of the Crown Prince, but you are still pushing it too far. If the thief you are looking for is in my bed, then you mean I am harboring a thief?"
Ke Zhenqiu's fake smile made the guards hesitate.
Searching someone's bed was indeed a bit excessive. Wouldn't it be obvious that they were suspicious of Ke Zhenqiu? However, they had already searched other places in the mansion. If they didn't search this courtyard in detail to eliminate the suspicion, they would not feel at ease.
The steward of the outer courtyard rolled his eyes, then smiled and said, "Please don't be angry, Master Ke. We are just following orders. If a villain sneaks into your courtyard and hurts you, we will be guilty.
Since we have searched your room thoroughly, we will take our leave. Sir, have a good rest. We will come back to apologize when you wake up."
"Let's go!" The manager of the outer courtyard waved to the guards.
The group filed out again, and soon the courtyard became quiet. In the room, Ke Zhenqiu looked through the half-open window at the guards leaving outside and couldn't help but snorted coldly.
He listened carefully to the noise outside, and only turned and looked at the bed after all the footsteps had disappeared.
However, the bed was very flat and there was no sign of anyone in it.
He was very surprised, so he went forward and lifted the quilt, and then finally saw Jiang Youzhen lying on the bed in a corner.
He couldn't help but feel amused and surprised.
Maybe it’s because Jiang Youzhen is too thin. When he was lying on the bed with the quilt covering him, his body was flat and it didn’t make people think that there was someone inside.
If the quilt was arched up just now, I believe these guards would have lifted it up to take a look.
When he lifted the quilt, he found a beauty in his bed. Ke Zhenqiu felt something strange in his heart, but he could only say that he was also a man, so it was normal for him to have some romantic thoughts.
Jiang Youzhen immediately got off the bed with her hands and feet together, "Thank you very much for saving my life, sir. I will take my leave first and will not trouble you any more."
"What? I saved you, and you just walked away like that?" Ke Zhenqiu's sarcastic voice sounded.
Jiang Youzhen had just taken a few steps when he heard this and turned to look at him. What did he mean? Did he want her to repay him?
"I'm sure those people are guarding outside the courtyard right now. I'm an outsider, and they're unlikely to believe me."
Jiang Youzhen thought it made sense, so she decided to stay here for a while. She didn't believe that those people would stare at Ke Zhenqiu's yard all night long, and would definitely leave if they didn't see anyone coming out.
Thinking of this, Jiang Youzhen returned to the room and sat down. Ke Zhengqiu leaned against the bed frame and then looked Jiang Youzhen up and down.
Jiang Youzhen was stared at by him for a long time until she felt a little uncomfortable. But she didn't speak first, just wait and see who can last longer.
Unexpectedly, Ke Zhenqiu suddenly said, "I didn't expect Lord Jiang to have such a hobby. I didn't recognize it for a while."
Jiang Youzhen's pupils shrank and a look of shock flashed in his eyes. How could this kid know his identity?
She was wearing women's clothes and had put on very bright makeup. She had just looked in the bronze mirror and she thought she would not be recognized because her face was covered.
She and Ke Zhengqiu had only met a few times, let alone been in close contact, so how could Ke Zhengqiu recognize her?
"What's the matter? Lord Jiang, are you curious about how I recognized you?" Ke Zhenqiu said, and suddenly took out a handkerchief to cover his mouth and coughed twice.
"I am indeed a little curious. I want to know where I revealed my flaw." Jiang Youzhen simply admitted it. Since the other party had recognized her, he must have something to rely on.
"Your eyebrows and eyes are painted with powder, which makes you look a little gaudy. Naturally, you are unrecognizable at first glance, but you do seem familiar. However, your hands betray you."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Youzhen immediately raised his hands, which were as white as jade. Just now, Mother Yan had put a pair of jade bracelets on her wrists, and he also had two rings on his right hand.
If you are not familiar with Jiang Youzhen, when you see these hands you will only think of a woman's soft hands, and not her at all.
"I have observed Master Jiang writing and painting before, so I am somewhat familiar with his hands."
Jiang Youzhen immediately raised his hands again and looked at them. There were no marks, such as moles, just a pair of slender hands.
And she would soak her hands in water diluted with spiritual spring water, so her hands were free of calluses.
