Chapter 234 - 234: Covering Him with a Blanket (2)
“Do you still want the blanket?”
Bai Xianyu glanced at the blanket on the ground. “I don’t want it anymore.”
“Then i’ll take it with me.”
Bai Xianyu,”…”
With that, Xie Xingyun carried the blanket and jumped out of the window on her left.
No, what did he want her blanket for?
Bai Xianyu was puzzled. After thinking for a while, she felt sleepy and fell asleep in a daze.
Xie Xingyun did not leave. Instead, he placed the blanket under her window and sat down.
The rain outside the corridor was turbulent, but fortunately, his area was not waterlogged. With the blanket as a cushion, it was not cold.
Thinking of how Bai Xianyu had secretly covered him with a blanket and even tucked him in, the smile on Xie Xingyun’s lips deepened.
The moon, which had been covered for a long time, finally broke through the clouds and was revealed.
A moonlight hit in front of Xie Xingyun, and the edge was plated with a faint glow.
Finally, a little light shone in.
At the same time, there seemed to be a human figure in the surging waves in the distance.
As Bai Xianyu woke up halfway, she slept until Green Pearl opened the window for her, the sunlight shone in, and the second-class maidservants tiptoed around to finish cleaning before waking up.
However, she did not wake up on her own. Instead, she was woken up.
Bai Xianyu rubbed the hair on her forehead. “Green Pearl, what’s going on outside?”
“Did I disturb Miss?” Green Pearl glanced out of the window and said, “It seems like there was a heavy rain last night and someone was swept up.”
“Oh.” Bai Xianyu yawned. “I’ll go wash up first.”
After washing up, Bai Xianyu came to the deck. There was a woman lying beside her, drenched. A guard took off his robe and covered her.
Bai Jingyuan also came out. “What’s going on?”
Bai Li cupped his fists and said, “Young Master, just now, the guards noticed a woman floating on the water when they were patrolling, so they fished her up to take a look. They had not expected her to still be alive. Because you and Miss had not come over, they left her here first.”
The woman’s face was delicate and pretty. Her hair was disheveled, but her clothes were intact, and her aura was weak.
“Green Pearl, help her change her clothes,” Bai Xianyu said.
Green Pearl nodded and called a few guards to carry her into her room.
Bai Jingyuan looked at Bai Li. “Keep an eye on her and interrogate her when she wakes up.”
“Yes!”
After Bai Xianyu finished giving her instructions, she heard a woman’s scream during breakfast.
Green Pearl hurried over. “Miss, that lady is awake.”
“Alright, let’s go take a look.”
However, before the two of them could reach the door, the screams from the other side rushed towards Bai Xianyu.
Her pupils constricted slightly, and Bai Li’s eyes widened. He reacted quickly and grabbed the woman’s hand, throwing her aside.
“…What happened to her?” Bai Xianyu frowned and walked behind Bai Li.
“I don’t know either. I asked her a few questions just now. At first, she was still confused, but then she suddenly screamed and asked me who I was.”
As expected, the woman who was thrown aside stood up in pain. Her eyes were wary. “Who are you all? I’m…”
She paused and suddenly hugged her head in pain. “Who am I?”
Bai Xianyu probed, “Have you lost your memory?”
The woman shook her head and nodded.
Green Pearl said, “Miss, I think there’s an 80% chance that she has lost her memory. There’s a girl in my hometown who has lost her memory. She was also from a foreign place. Like her, she asks whomever she meets who she is and who they are.”
Bai Li frowned. “Amnesia?”
“What’s your name? Where do you live? How many relatives do you have? Don’t you remember anything?”
The woman seemed to have finally accepted this reality and nodded while crying.
At this moment, a guard said, “Maybe it’s a small merchant ship or fishing boat passing by that encountered some mishaps at sea. It’s lucky that she survived the storm last night.”
“Perhaps,” Bai Li said. “Go and tell Young Master about this.”
This woman had suddenly screamed just now. What if she went crazy and frightened Miss? Bai Li felt that it was better to stand guard here.
“Yes!”
Although the woman had lost her memory, it was obvious that her brain had not been damaged. She glanced at the two of them and immediately could tell who was the master and who was the guard.
In this vast sea, if they did not take her in and she had also lost her memory, she would have no place to go since she did not know anyone!
If they could save her, she ought to be a good person.
The woman secretly sized up Bai Xianyu. She instinctively sensed that the dress this girl in front of her was wearing was very expensive. Her skin was soft and tender, and her facial features were beautiful. One look and she could tell that she was a delicate young lady.
Perhaps she could save her!
The woman knelt down with a plop and cried, “Miss, save me. 1 have no one to rely on now and don’t know where to go. If 1 fall into the hands of the pirates, I will definitely die without an intact corpse.”
She kowtowed as she spoke. The deck of the boat was about to be smashed by her head.
“Miss, save me! I’m willing to be your servant!”
Green Pearl could not bear it. “Miss, I heard that there are many pirates on the shore here. It’s only because our ships have been painted as official ships that the little bandits don’t dare to come. However, their methods are very cruel. They don’t even let off married women and pregnant women, let alone such a beautiful girl. If she falls into their hands, it would be lucky for her to be killed.”
Bai Xianyu hesitated for a moment. “We have something important to do and can’t bring you along. I don’t lack maidservants by my side. How about this… you stay for the time being. When the ship reaches the shore, it will be the Liang Province. It is more peaceful there. When the time comes, I’ll give you some silver. You can find a way out yourself.”
The woman was moved to tears. “Thank you, Miss!”
“Bai Li, see if she knows martial arts.”
Bai Li nodded and went forward to check. After a while, he cupped his fists and said, “Miss, she doesn’t have any calluses from practicing swords or other weapons. She doesn’t have internal energy either. She shouldn’t know any martial arts..”
