A Military Doctor Became a Stepmom in Ancient Times

“The people behind us are following us,” Nan Xing whispered into Ning Yue’s ear.

Ning Yue paused and looked at Ah Da and Ah Er. The two of them had good hearing and had also heard Nan Xing and Ning Yuan’s conversation. They nodded slightly at her.

Ah Da asked Ning Yue, “Princess, do you want me to deal with them?”

“No need.” Ning Yue shook her head. “Get someone to investigate and see who it is.”

As someone was following them, Ning Yue’s nerves were tense. She was on guard all the way, but to her surprise, this person did not do anything else until she returned home.

Ah Da sent someone to follow the person who was following them. Nan Xing also sent someone to tail them.

The people they sent realized that this person had returned to a jewelry shop at night and never came out again.

After Jiang Ying found out about this, he did not say anything and secretly sent someone to investigate the shop.

He instructed Ning Yue, “It’s best not to go out for the time being. It’s not safe outside before we catch Lian Xin.”

He was worried that if Ning Yue was caught by Lian Xin again, she might not be as lucky as last time. What if Ning Yue suffered again?

“Don’t worry, I’m fine. As long as I don’t leave the capital, he won’t dare to cause trouble,” Ning Yue said.

No matter what, this was the capital that was controlled by the emperor. Even Lian Xin had to think twice before causing trouble.

“By the way, Jiang Ying, I want to ask you what kind of person Nan Xing is?” Ning Yue asked.

At the mention of Nan Xing, Jiang Ying’s expression was a little strange. After a long time, he said, “He’s crazy.”

What? Ning Yue looked at him in confusion. His evaluation was a little cute.

“Why do I feel that you’re avoiding him?” Ning Yue asked again.

“No, I’ve been busy recently and don’t have time to see him. Just help me receive him,” Jiang Ying said.

In the end, early the next morning, Jiang Ying entered the palace.

Nan Xing also went to the Ning family at this time. He told Ning Yue about sending someone to follow him.

Ning Yue was about to say something when he said, “I have to find that person. I have to ask him why he’s following me.”

“Don’t. If that person is plotting something, won’t we not know what they’re going to do if we go like this?” Ning Yue said.

“It’ll be too late for them to do anything!” Nan Xing rolled his eyes at Ning Yue.

Ning Yue could not stop Nan Xing, so she could only follow him to the jewelry shop.

Nan Xing was very angry. He grabbed the shopkeeper and asked, “Where is that person?”

The shopkeeper trembled in fear. He hugged Nan Xing’s thigh and wailed, “Mercy, mercy!”

Nan Xing sneered and kicked the shopkeeper hard. The shopkeeper immediately fell to the ground. “Let me tell you, if you don’t call that person out, I’ll kill you.”

The shopkeeper was pale with fear. “I wonder who you’re talking about?”

“You’re still pretending, right? You have the guts to send someone to follow me, but not the guts to admit it, right?” Nan Xing asked.

The shopkeeper’s expression froze. He explained everything. He said that he saw that the two of them were generous and wanted someone to trick them into coming to the shop to spend money.

However, he did not expect the two of them to actually enter the Marquis Dingyuan’s Residence. That was the home of the current Princess Mingyue! Even if he was given a hundred guts, he would not dare to attack Ning Yue!

When Nan Xing heard this, he looked at Ning Yue, who had no expression on her face. Only then did Nan Xing plan to not pursue the matter and leave with her.

Ning Yue felt that Nan Xing’s personality was the complete opposite of Lian Xin’s. He was very direct and was the kind of person who couldn’t hide his thoughts. His thoughts were written all over his face.

However, she couldn’t jump to conclusions. She had to continue observing.

After the two of them left, the panic on the shopkeeper’s face disappeared and was replaced by a sneer.

He made a prompt decision and closed the jewelry shop.

He had completed the mission given by his master, so there was no need for the shop to exist.

For a few days in a row, Jiang Ying had been leaving early and returning late. He had not met Nan Xing. This action puzzled Ning Yue.

Originally, Ning Yue had planned to chat with Jiang Ying and see what was going on between him and Nan Xing.
