His Peasant Wife: Yao Ling [Part 2]

Chapter 381 - 383

🔘Chapter 381: But....

Yao Ying actually knew that something didn't sit well with Yao Ling and the latter even searched for Ning Jie in a hurry because she needed the latter's help as soon as possible.

It wasn't like Yao Ling's usual self because she seemed to be in a panic and her calm bearing was gone.

What made her become so agitated ah~?!

He actually wanted to investigate this matter as well but he changed his mind at the last minute. After all, he respected her.

Even though he didn't like that there was a secret between them, he knew that he had to give her some space.

Despite his curiosity, he held himself back really well.

Sooner or later, she would certainly tell him about it. He trusted her that much and hoped that she could fo the same as well.

However, the thing that concerned him the most was Yao Ling's behaviors lately.

She couldn't seem to concentrate and she kept staring blankly at nothing --- seemingly thinking about something important.

Whenever he asked the reason, she would just force a smile and pretend that she was fine.

"Are you really okay? Why don't you tell me if you have something in your mind?" Yao Ying asked Yao Ling who kept dazing inside their room with a sigh.

How could she say that it was nothing when she behaved like this?

Yao Ying didn't know that her mind kept thinking the worse.

Who was that woman? What was her relationship with Yao Ying before this? Was Yao Ying really the person that she was looking for? What if he remembered her? What if he left her because of that woman?

So many thoughts had been swirling inside her mind over and over again and none of them was a good one...

Yao Ling jumped up in surprise when she heard Yao Ying's voice behind her.

She clutched her chest because of the surprise and laughed awkwardly.

"I'm really okay..." She answered with a more genuine smile but her heart was still fluctuating.

Yao Ying sighed, knowing that he wouldn't get the answer tonight.

"Then, let's go to sleep..." He suggested with a gentle smile.

Yao Ling nodded her head and laid beside him while Yao Ying was hugging her from behind.

However, both of them still had a restless night.

They decided not to talk about this matter but the woman would appear soon in their life and make a fluctuation in their peaceful life.

It took one day for Ning Jie to find information about that woman and her trope.

They came from the Qin Kingdom which made Yao Ling furrow her eyebrows --- she didn't feel surprised about that because she had guessed that Yao Ying must have a certain connection with the Qin Kingdom.

Ning Jie could only find a little about the woman --- after all, she had always following this trope ever since a little girl.

She tried to see whether Yao Ying was a part of the trope or not and they couldn't find a person that fitted Yao Ying's description.

Yao Ying wasn't a part of the trope so they couldn't find out the connection between him and this woman.

After all, the woman had never stayed in one place due to her trope's schedule.
