Chapter 145 I was discovered by you
The morning light shone into the house and sprinkled onto the bed through the window.
Sitting on the bed, Jiang Tingwan slowly opened his eyes, feeling the fresh air and the warmth of the morning light. A bird happened to be perched on the windowsill, chirping happily.
Jiang Tingwan enjoyed the show very much. At that moment, she felt an unprecedented tranquility. But the next moment, a sudden knock on the door scared the birds so much that they flew up in panic and disappeared from Jiang Tingwan's sight.
Wen Bumian reappeared in front of Jiang Tingwan. As soon as he entered the room, he looked exhausted.
Jiang Tingwan welcomed him in and poured him a cup of tea.
But he waved his hand to refuse, and said anxiously: "No more drinking, I have something to tell you."
Jiang Tingwan looked calm and said, "I have something to tell you, too."
"Let me tell you first, I fought with Qinglan and left a tracking method on her. She is injured now. As long as we can catch her, you will be able to hear with your own eyes the truth about the attack on Beihai Gate yesterday." Wen Bumian seemed to be very sure and said.
"Have a drink of water first." Jiang Tingwan pushed the cup in front of him.
Wen Bumian took a look, then looked at her again, with a hint of doubt in his eyes, "You don't believe me? Or do you firmly believe in Mu Yunzhong?"
Jiang Tingwan did not answer immediately, but poured himself a cup of tea. "It's not that I don't believe you, but you and I both know that Qinglan and Mu Yunzhong are not of the same mind. Even if we catch her, does that mean what she said is true?"
After hearing what Jiang Tingwan said, Wen Bumian's pupils tightened subconsciously, "You even found an excuse for him?"
Jiang Tingwan looked into Wen Bumian's eyes and explained to him anxiously and seriously, "I'm not making excuses for Mu Yunzhong. He told me yesterday that he was willing to give up everything and be a disciple of Sanyuan Sect. I also saw with my own eyes that the value above his head dropped significantly. He didn't lie. He really changed."
"Oh, really?" After saying this, Wen Bumian unconsciously moved back a little and clenched his hands on the table unconsciously.
Jiang Tingwan noticed his actions and knew that he was rejecting his words.
After a short silence, he asked as expected: "In the end, was the value above his head reset to zero?"
He asked this question with a heart-wrenching look, his eyes confronting Jiang Tingwan. Jiang Tingwan's words were stuck in his throat and he was unable to refute.
She was the first to lower her attitude, sitting closer to him, and said earnestly: "I know you have never believed him, but have you noticed that we have always overlooked one thing."
Wen Bumian looked at her, wanting to know what she had to say.
Jiang Tingwan continued, "Except for Mu Yunzhong, we have never seen the male protagonist Luo Xingnan. Don't you think that his absence from Pingxia City is beyond Mu Yunzhong's plan?"
Wen Bumian clenched his fingers again. When Jiang Tingwan mentioned this, he also excitedly tapped the table with his fingers.
"Maybe he was affected by other reasons." Wen Bumian said.
"Yes! But yesterday, the one-eyed silver wolf actually used a formation similar to Luo Xingnan's. Don't you think this is suspicious?"
Jiang Tingwan looked at Wen Bumian with burning eyes, as if he hoped he could understand what he was saying.
Being stared at, Wen Bumian rolled his eyes thoughtfully and picked up the cup of tea in front of him, "What do you doubt?"
"I suspect there is another mysterious force somewhere, and it knows many things that the people in this story shouldn't know." Jiang Tingwan looked at her and said, "Because if Mu Yun finally ambush the Hundred Immortal Sects as planned, it will not affect Luo Xingnan's route in any way, because from his perspective, he doesn't know that Luo Xingnan is a danger to his plan."
Jiang Tingwan expressed his guess, and Wen Bumian drank the cup of tea in his hand. She frowned slightly, looked at him meaningfully, and sat up straight instead of leaning forward.
"Even if that's the case, what they are doing now is exactly what Mu Yunzhong originally wanted to do? What reason do they have to help him?"
Wen Bumian put down the cup in his hand. When he said this, there was a change of expression in his eyes. Even the panting that came from rushing forward turned into a leisurely look at this moment.
Jiang Tingwan's nose felt a strange dryness. She looked at Wen Bumian in front of her again and again, and clenched her slender fingers into a fist under the table.
Even though she was conflicted, she finally asked.
"Wen Bumian! You never seem to believe that he can have a good ending?"
Wen Bumian seemed to have anticipated her question and asked, "I've always been curious, why did you choose the most difficult method instead of the simplest one? Obviously, all problems can be solved by killing him. Why do you care so much about whether he can survive in this world?"
"Because it's a life!"
"But I also said that I can do it!" He suddenly became excited.
"Smell the sleep!"
Jiang Tingwan called out to him in extreme confusion. She clearly felt that there was a conflict between her and Wen Bumian. She had always thought that their goals should be the same, but now she had doubts because until now she had not seen through what he really thought.
His expression calmed down in an instant, as if even his excitement just now was a disguise. There was no concealment in his eyes anymore, only the answer that was clear and bright.
Jiang Tingwan's doubts were confirmed at this moment. She looked at Wen Bumian and suddenly realized that her trust with him was built on a fragile foundation. Since they met, although they came from the same world, there was always a mystery in his eyes that she couldn't see clearly, which always made her feel confused.
She originally thought that it was a different way of thinking, but his expression at this moment made her feel unprecedentedly strange.
She couldn't help but feel her eyes turn red, as if someone suddenly swung a stick at her while she was walking forward. Although it wasn't fatal, it hit her heart hard, causing her to suffocate for a moment.
"why?"
She looked at him, her brows already twisted into a knot, and asked him almost tremblingly.
The man opposite him looked relaxed, not at all flustered or embarrassed by being seen through. A wicked smile flashed in his eyes, and the corners of his lips curled slightly, saying:
"Oops, you found me!"
After he finished speaking, his expression changed again, with a look of contempt:
"But you should have discovered it."
