Chapter 78 Paper Wedding Dress (78)
The beaded curtain swaying in the candlelight shone with a brilliant glimmer, and the girl's delicate face gradually revealed itself.
Her expression was indifferent and calm, and her eyes passed over Wu Juan, "Sit down."
The snow-clad boy in front of him lowered his eyes slightly, and when he heard the girl's words, he nodded gently and sat on the chair without saying a word.
She poured a cup of tea for Wu Juan, who took it and whispered thank you.
"I came here to ask you something." Yu Mu didn't say anything nonsense, and went straight to the point: "You know the woman who appears every night, right?"
The girl's tone was extremely calm, and she was completely sure, not asking.
Wu Juan's body suddenly paused, and he almost subconsciously raised his head and met the girl's dark and deep black eyes. His heart still jumped, and he lowered his long eyelashes in panic, not daring to look at Yu Mu again.
Seeing him evading, Yu Mu remained calm, stood up and stretched out his hand to grab Wu Juan's collar, forcing him to turn his head and look down at him.
The girl's long eyelashes drooped slightly, and there was no expression on her delicate little face. Her dark pupils looked down at him without any ripples like an ancient well.
"What are you hiding from?" She said coldly, "Can't you say it?"
Wu Juan looked up at her, his collar was tightly grasped, and his whole body could be said to be leaning forward, and the distance between the two was very close.
Wu Juan's pupils shrank slightly, and then his long eyelashes trembled slightly, and then he slowly shook his head and answered: "No..."
"Then what are you hiding from?" Yu Mu seemed to be very persistent in this question.
"..."
Wu Juan pursed his lips, and he glanced at Yu Mu's expression, as if Yu Mu would not let him go if Wu Juan didn't answer this question today.
Wu Juan could only sigh softly, raised his hand and slowly held Yu Mu's hand that was tightly grasping his collar. Yu Mu lowered his eyes and glanced at him, but did not speak. He loosened his hand and let Wu Juan hold his hand.
Then he heard Wu Juan say: "I'm just a little surprised. I didn't expect that my sister would ask about this."
Wu Juan held Yu Mu's hand, raised his head and said to the girl opposite: "Sister, sit down first. A Juan will answer whatever you ask, and A Juan will never hide anything from my sister."
Yu Mu pursed her lips and sat down without saying a word.
She took back her hand, poured a cup of tea, took a sip, and then continued: "Have you seen that woman?"
On the first day she met Wu Juan, Wu Juan repeatedly told her not to go out at night, otherwise she would meet "her".
At that time, Yu Mu didn't know that this woman would appear at night, but she didn't take Wu Juan's words to heart. But now, when you think about it again, you can recall some details that you have overlooked.
For example... Wu Juan knew about the existence of this woman, and knew how dangerous this woman was. He also knew that she could only come out at night, and that as long as she didn't go out, she wouldn't be in danger...
All these things, plus the fact that Wu Juan was an NPC, maybe... he had seen this woman, or maybe he was an important NPC who knew the key clues about this woman.
Wu Juan was silent for a moment, and nodded: "... I did see her, a long time ago."
Yu Mu: "When did this woman start to appear in your house?"
Wu Juan shook his head: "I don't know the exact time. I only know that when I saw her, it was two years ago."
