His Peasant Wife: Yao Ling [Part 2]

Chapter 396 - 397

🔘Chapter 396: Nice Or Stupid?!

Ying Ying agreed and they quickly went to a big teahouse where Yao Ling had been waiting for them.

She had chosen a private room so that no one would be able to see their meeting here and they could talk more freely this way.

Ning Jie had specifically changed Ying Ying's clothes before they came here so no one would recognize her.

She didn't want Yao Ling's reputation to be ruined just because they thought she was helping Ying Ying for real! Ning Jie also sent a person to notify Yao Ying what had happened on the street just now.

The person that she sent was the one who had gotten the job to spy on Ying Ying so he would tell everything clearly to Yao Ying.

Ning Jie wanted to let him know that he might be a traitor or something like that in his past life!

He needed to prepare himself –– of course, they didn't know whether that claim was really true or not.

However, it was the only clue that they had for now. They needed to treat it seriously.

Ning Jie felt a bit dissatisfied with Yao Ying's past if that was really true, but she could see how loving the couple was and there was no indication that Yao Ying was such a bad man.

Thus, she could only decide that she would support Yao Ling with whatever choice that she would make in the future.

On the contrary to Ning Jie's thought, Yao Ling didn't really believe in this woman...

Yao Ling felt something not adding up, after all, they met an important person back at the Crescent Lake –– that Bai Bing Wen.

She believed that he must have known her presence and Yao Ying as well even though they had never met each other there...

If Yao Ying was really a traitor or maybe an important figure in that big matter, Bai Bing Wen should have recognized him back then, right?

There was no reason for him to let them be...

Everything wasn't certain for now –– that was the reason why she needed more details from Ying Ying.

However, she knew that the sly woman wouldn't easily spill out everything, there must be some lies hidden within her words which made her need to be cautious as well.

She wondered whether she should use her power or not.

She had a better grasp on her own power now, however, she was afraid that someone would notice it.

In the end, it would bring danger to her and her baby.

She had been angry and become impulsive just now, so she had used a bit of her power in the middle of the crowd.

Fortunately, nothing seemed to be amiss.

Oh well... She would just go with the flow then...

Once she saw Ying Ying in better clothes, Yao Ling was quite surprised. Her temperament looked far more different than before.

Of course, she didn't change prettier just because of it, but there was an elegance that the commoner shouldn't have in her movement.

Who was she? Yao Ling furrowed her eyebrows in displease.

She didn't believe that this woman's motive was as simple as bringing Yao Ying back to the Qin Kingdom.

Yao Ling was certain that she wasn't an ordinary woman –– maybe a low-rank official's daughter because her movement wasn't as graceful as Xiao Fang who had been receiving a Mo Mo's teaching from a young age.
