On a quiet night, the moonlight shines like a spring, illuminating the Ni Chang mansion. This residence seems like a peaceful haven, yet it hides the tumult of the martial world. The willow trees sway gently, creating a tranquil and peaceful atmosphere, but this is precisely the calm before the storm.
In the night at the Ni Chang mansion, a young man silently scales the courtyard wall, his movements agile and light, like a prowling leopard.
Late at night, a young man sneaked into the mansion, his steps as light as a cat's. Unexpectedly, he mistakenly entered Ni Chang's chamber. Inside the room, Ni Chang sat alone on the edge of the bed, her hair bathed in moonlight, looking particularly poignant. Her eyes gazed outside, lost in her own thoughts.
Suddenly, Ni Chang sensed something unusual and turned around to see a stranger who had suddenly appeared in the room. She let out a terrified scream, her voice filled with panic. She clutched the bedsheets tightly, her body trembling slightly, and her eyes filled with fear.
The young man immediately became flustered, hastily gesturing for her to be quiet and explaining in a low voice, "Miss, please don't panic. I am not a bad person. I am..." His eyes revealed anxiety, and his tone was urgent.
Ye Ran's voice came from outside, tense and rapid, as if a bolt of lightning had cut through the quiet night sky.
"Who dares to intrude into Ni Chang's chamber at night!" Ye Ran held a long sword, his figure appearing at the door like a ghost, his eyes flashing with anger. He immediately recognized the young man and couldn't help but feel astonished, "Ink, how did you end up here!"
The young man, also known as Mo Xiaobai, quickly raised his hands in surrender, with fine beads of sweat seeping from his forehead, and hurriedly explained, "Ye Ran, I came to find you! I never expected to barge in here." Mo Xiaobai's voice carried a hint of urgency, showing his unease.
Ye Ran furrowed his brows, sheathed his long sword, and said to Mo Xiaobai, "Come in and talk!" Although his tone was displeased, the anger in his eyes had slightly eased. He still held some trust in this old friend who had intruded in the middle of the night.
Ni Chang's heart was still in turmoil, her eyes like water, gazing at Ye Ran and Mo Xiaobai. Her hands trembled slightly, showing her unease and fear.
Ye Ran turned to Ni Chang and said, "No need to panic. This person is my good friend Mo Xiaobai. He accidentally entered this place tonight, with no ill intentions." As he spoke, his eyes revealed a hint of reassurance.
Ni Chang heard this and her expression softened slightly. Her gaze fell on Mo Xiaobai, showing curiosity and wariness. Her voice was gentle, tinged with a hint of vulnerability: "So it's a friend of Ran, you startled me just now."
Mo Xiaobai bowed to Ni Chang and said, "Mo Xiaobai has met the young lady. Intruding into the boudoir at night was truly an unintentional mistake. I hope the young lady can forgive me." His voice was deep and sincere, with a hint of apology in his eyes.
Ni Chang nodded to indicate understanding. Her gaze returned to Ye Ran, and she was full of doubts about this sudden visitor.
Seeing this, Ye Ran said to Mo Xiaobai, "Mo Xiaobai, did you come to find me for something urgent?" There was a hint of worry in his tone, and his eyes showed concern for Ni Chang.
Ink Xiaobai nodded, his gaze steady: "Indeed there is something, it's about some recent developments in the martial arts world, I think you should know." There was a hint of seriousness in his voice.
Ye Ran furrowed his brows after hearing this, his gaze becoming serious. He glanced at Ni Chang and then turned to Ink Xiaobai, saying, "Let's talk outside." With that, he turned and led the way, with Ink Xiaobai following closely behind.
Ye Ran and Mo Xiaobai retreated to the courtyard and talked under the moonlight. Mo Xiaobai looked serious as he conveyed the information he knew to Ye Ran: "Han Wudao has been active recently, secretly plotting against you. I suspect he also has intentions towards the young lady, known as the number one beauty in the martial arts world."
Ye Ran's eyes flashed with coldness, as he had already sensed something: "I had a premonition. Han Wudao is not a good person, and I have also seen his intentions towards Ni Chang. Thank you for taking this risk to come here."
Ink shook his head and his eyes flashed with determination: "Ye Ran, our brotherhood runs deep, your business is my business. I will stay here to help you deal with it together."
Ye Ran nodded, and the two of them discussed strategies under the moonlight, planning how to expose Han Wudao's conspiracy and keep Ni Chang safe.
The next day, Ni Chang practiced alone in the courtyard. Her movements were graceful, but there was a hint of worry on her face. She practiced the light-body technique passed down in the mansion, and every movement appeared exceptionally elegant. However, the worry on her brow made her expression somewhat absent-minded.
In a light and silent manner, Mo Xiaobai approached. He watched Ni Chang's figure, a hint of admiration flashing in his eyes, and then he wanted to strike up a conversation with her.
"Miss, about last night, I hope you won't be upset," Mo Xiaobai's voice carried a hint of apology, and his eyes revealed sincerity.
Ni Chang waved her hand gently and smiled, "Master Mo, there's no need to blame yourself. I also know it was just a misunderstanding." Her voice was soft with a hint of arrogance, and the caution in her eyes relaxed slightly.
Ink Xiaobai's eyes were solemn as he said, "Miss, I have something to tell you about Han Wudao." His voice was deep and serious.
Ni Chang's eyes narrowed at the words, and a look of vigilance appeared in her eyes. "Han Wudao? What new scheme does he have?" Her hand involuntarily tightened, showing her concern.
Ink Xiaobai told Ni Chang everything he knew. After listening, Ni Chang's eyes showed concern, "This Han Wudao is so cunning, he is against Ye Ran..."
Ink Xiaobai comforted, "Ye Ran is extraordinary, he will find a way to deal with it. And I will stay here to help him." His voice was firm, and his eyes revealed his trust in Ye Ran.
Ni Chang Although worried, also felt a sense of relief. Her eyes revealed trust in Ye Ran. She whispered, "Thank you, Master Mo. With your help, I can rest assured about Ye Ran."
At that moment, Ye Ran approached from a distance, his steps firm and his gaze sharp. Seeing Ni Chang and Mo Xiaobai chatting amicably, he felt a little relieved. A hint of a mischievous smile played at the corner of Ye Ran's mouth as he said, "It seems I arrived just in time."
Ni Chang turned around and saw Ye Ran, joy flashing in her eyes. Mo Xiaobai nodded slightly as a sign of respect.
"Mo Xiaobai, you've arrived just in time," Ye Ran said gratefully. He then turned to Ni Chang and said, "We need to make a plan to deal with Han Wudao."
Ni Chang sighed softly and said, "Han Wudao holds a significant position in my father's heart. He has earned my father's trust over the years, and it will not be easy to shake his position in my father's heart. I have known him since I was young, and although he has never wronged me, I have always been unable to like the way he looks at me."
Ye Ran pondered for a moment and responded, "Ni Chang, your feelings are important. If Han Wudao truly has ulterior motives, he will surely reveal his flaws. Xiaobai, we need to closely monitor his every move."
Ink Xiaobai nodded in agreement, "Brother Ye, I will observe in secret and look for opportunities."
With the plan set, Ye Ran and Ink Xiaobai hid in the shadows, carefully monitoring Han Wudao's every move, while Ni Chang handled things inside the mansion, providing covert assistance.
Days passed by, and Han Wudao's behavior became increasingly strange. He often lingered around Ni Chang, occasionally uttering a few kind words, but always met with coldness from Ni Chang. Meanwhile, Ye Ran and Mo Xiaobai were secretly gathering evidence against Han Wudao.
One afternoon, Ni Chang was reading in the garden when Han Wudao quietly approached her, attempting to get closer to her. His words were full of flattery and insinuation, but Ni Chang only responded lightly, not giving him any opportunity.
Han Wudao showed a displeased expression, but forced a smile and left. All of this was observed by Ye Ran and Mo Xiaobai, who were hidden in the shadows.
That night, the three of them had a secret discussion in Ye Ran's room. Ye Ran looked serious and said to Mo Xiaobai and Ni Chang, "Han Wudao's behavior is becoming more suspicious. We must act quickly."
Ink Xiaobai took out a document, which recorded Han Wudao's recent whereabouts and transactions. He analyzed, " Han Wudao has secret dealings with the outside world, and his movements are mysterious. It seems that his conspiracy is not limited to the mansion."
Ni Chang frowned, her voice tinged with some worry: "If Han Wudao is colluding with external enemies, the consequences would be unimaginable. We must find conclusive evidence as soon as possible to expose his true face."
Ye Ran said to Ni Chang and Mo Xiaobai, "We need to come up with a plan to lure Han Wudao out."
After some discussion, the three of them decided to set a trap to ensnare Han Wudao and expose his true intentions, using Ni Chang as bait.
On the night of the planned implementation, Ni Chang pretended to take a solitary walk in the courtyard. Her steps were light but carried a heavy train of thought, and her shadow under the moonlight seemed even lonelier than usual. Meanwhile, Ye Ran and Mo Xiaobai lurked in the shadows, their eyes sharp as they watched for any movement around them, waiting for Han Wudao to appear.
Sure enough, Han Wudao appeared silently. In the moonlight, his figure seemed eerie and gloomy. He approached Ni Chang step by step, a sly smile on his lips and a predatory intent in his eyes.
Ni Chang felt someone behind her, turned around, and saw Han Wudao. She looked surprised and said, "Manager Han, it's so late. What are you doing here?"
Han Wudao advanced step by step, with a cunning look in his eyes. "Miss, I have always been concerned about your safety. It's late at night, and you are alone here, which is really worrying." His voice was full of hypocrisy, as if he was looking for an excuse to approach Ni Chang.
Ni Chang took a step back and pretended to be afraid, saying, "Han Wudao, I... I just came out for some fresh air. If you're worried, why don't you accompany me for a walk?" Her voice trembled.
Han Wudao looked smug, thinking that his opportunity had come. He slowly approached Ni Chang and whispered, "Miss, you know that Ye Ran is a man of the jianghu and could leave at any time. Is his heart really with you?"
