"Little girl, be good and follow me back to the village to be my wife.”The man who spoke had a wretched appearance, and his eyes were almost sunken in. He even stared at the girl with half a squint. He slowly searched from her face down.
No matter how inexperienced the young girl was, she knew what kind of gaze it was. She was instantly furious. A whip lashed out at the man's body. The man's skin was split open by this sudden whip. He couldn't help but become angry.
"Refusing a toast only to drink a forfeit. Someone help her and bring her back to be the wife of the bandit chief.”
"Yes, Chief." The group of small fries was filled with joy. There was finally a woman in the village.
"You guys are courting death." The young lady swung her whip again, and the lackey who had just replied was entangled by the whip. The young lady swung it hard and threw him onto a tree. The lackey rolled down from the tree, and a mouthful of blood spilled from the corner of his mouth. His face instantly turned pale. His life was in danger.
"Brothers, attack and avenge Little Cockroach.”The mountain bandits charged at the girl with their blood boiling.
The young girl lashed the hand of the person closest to her. As soon as the whip left, a bloody scar appeared on the person's arm. He repeatedly hit the people who came closer. One of them took advantage of the girl's inattention and slowly approached her. The young girl whipped the person who approached her in front of her and turned around when she sensed danger. The girl closed her eyes weakly as the person behind her scattered the knockout powder. Her body slowly fell back into the person's arms.
"Haha…Aren't you good at fighting?”The man was overjoyed and finally brought the beauty home.
"Chief is still the best." A small fry flattered the man.
Just as they were feeling happy, two stones flew towards the man. They hit the man's hands and legs, and almost at the same time landed on his body. The man let go of his hand in pain and knelt on the ground. A blue figure caught the girl and stood several meters away. The man looked up and saw another beautiful woman. His expression became even happier.
"Beauty, I advise you to let go of that girl.”The man stood up from the ground with his arms crossed in front of his chest with a lecherous expression.
"Otherwise what?" Mo Shangqiu looked at the man playfully.
"Why don't you follow me back to the village?”The man stroked his chin, not letting go of any opportunities to attack Mo Shangqiu.
"Dream on." Mo Shangqiu's hand, which was hidden under her clothes, flicked lightly, and a strange fragrance spread in the air. Mo Shangqiu quietly fed a small black pill into the young girl's mouth.
"Then I'll let you know what wishful thinking you have.”Before the man could finish his sentence, he heard a group of mournful cries.
" Ouch…" The bandits knelt on the ground and groaned, scratching their faces. Their bodies were itchy as if they were being bitten by thousands of ants.
The arrogant man was now rolling on the ground, his arm scratched with blood.
"I want the antidote. Give me the antidote.”The Mountain Thief King shouted.
Mo Shangqiu glanced at it and took out a medicine bottle from her bosom. "Where's the antidote for her knockout powder?"
The Mountain Thief King hurriedly took out a bottle from his chest and threw it at Mo Shangqiu. Mo Shangqiu grabbed the bottle and placed it at the tip of the girl's nose. The girl woke up after inhaling the antidote.
The young girl saw herself lying in Mo Shangqiu's arms and a trace of doubt rose in her heart. Could it be that she had saved him?
"Hero, please give us the antidote. We're itching to die." The Mountain Thief King scrambled over to Mo Shangqiu, trying to grab hold of her clothes. Mo Shangqiu dodged, but he missed and fell to the ground again.
"Don't let me see you next time, or you'll be dead.”Mo Shangqiu threw the bottle on the ground and pulled the girl away.
"Thank you for saving me." The girl smiled sweetly, her eyes curved into crescents.
"We don't owe each other anything." Mo Shangqiu did not know why she had saved her. Perhaps it was because she had saved her before.
This young lady was none other than the one who had saved Mo Shangqiu in the capital previously, Mu Chuxue.
"My name is Mu Chuxue. What's yours?”Mu Chuxue raised her small face and asked. She was a bit shorter than Mo Shangqiu, so she had to look up slightly when she spoke.
"Mo Shangqiu." Mo Shangqiu found her horse and untied its reins, pulling it forward.
"Hey, where are you going?" Mu Chuxue grabbed Mo Shangqiu's arm.
"It's none of your business." Mo Shangqiu flung Mu Chuxue's hand away. Her fingernails were coated with a layer of transparent medicine. It was an extremely poisonous poison. She was afraid that she would accidentally hurt Mu Chuxue, so her tone could not help but be a little harsh.
Mu Chuxue's face fell when she heard that, but she recovered in a moment. "Can I come with you?" she asked with a smile.”His heart was filled with anticipation.
"Up to you." Mo Shangqiu flew onto his horse and stretched out his hand to look at Mu Chuxue.
Mu Chuxue was delighted and quickly put her hand on it. He sat on the horse's back with a light tug. If Carefree Lan Yi knew that Mu Chuxue was being treated like this outside, would he come out of the valley and kill Mo Shangqiu?
"Have you found out where she is?" The man stood in front of the desk, and a woman in red was kneeling below him. Her head was buried low. The man looked at the portrait on the table, and his eyes became passionate. Even the woman below had noticed the change in her master. It seemed that her master had fallen in love with the woman in the portrait.
"Capital City of Lanqi Country. She's heading in the direction of Lanyue.”The woman reported truthfully, not daring to hide anything.
"Pack up and go to Lanyue." The man finally moved his eyes away from the portrait and looked at the kneeling woman in red.
"Yes." The woman in red left the room, jumped onto the roof, and disappeared from the courtyard.
After the woman in red left, the man revealed a rare smile. The corners of his mouth were just right, making his handsome face look beautiful.
"Cousin!" In the distance, a little girl about fifteen or sixteen years old hopped towards the study.
She wore a light-colored long gauze skirt and a rose-red brocade jacket with snow-white rabbit fur sewn at the corners. An orange-red belt was wrapped around her waist with a piece of top-quality Hetian jade inlaid in the middle. On the left side of the belt was a high-quality glazed jade pendant hanging on her waist. Her long, brocade-like hair was tied into a crescent hairpin with a red jade coral hairpin. Under the hair basket was a row of glazed curtains, making her look even more charming and graceful. Her elegant jade face was painted with light plum blossom makeup. If she was originally like a fairy with an outstanding charm that could topple a country, but now she was like a fairy who had accidentally fallen into the mortal world and was stained with a trace of mortal fate, the man would suddenly lose his soul. However, the most unforgettable thing was that pair of bright starlight eyes.
The man put away the portrait on the table and tidied his clothes before opening the door and leaving. This study was a forbidden area of the Di residence. No one was allowed to enter without his permission.
"What is it?" The man's strong and powerful facial features and slightly furrowed brows. That deep voice that tugged at one's heartstrings looked sternly at the person in front of him.
"I heard from my aunt that you're back, so I came to see you.”The woman winked playfully. She wanted to act coquettishly to her cousin, but when she saw his cold face, she held back in the end.
"You can go back now." The man flung his sleeves and walked past his cousin as he walked out of the courtyard. From the beginning, he had never liked his cousin. And his mother wanted him to marry a woman he didn't love. It was simply impossible. He would never compromise. She wanted him to marry her because she wanted his cousin to keep an eye on him. Why would he need to plant a spy by his side?
"Cousin, where are you going?" The girl caught up with the man and asked.
"It's none of your business." The man strode away with his sleeves.
The young girl was stunned on the spot, and a hint of ruthlessness flashed in her eyes. Suddenly, another man appeared behind her and saw the hatred in her eyes.
"Miss." The man called out to the girl softly.
"Liu Yun, help me keep an eye on Cousin and see what he's going to do.”The girl's face was no longer as innocent as before. It was so gloomy that it distorted her beautiful face.
When Mo Shangqiu and Mu Chuxue arrived at Lanyue, it was already late and they found an inn to rest. Their rooms were right next to each other, so they could take care of each other if anything happened. Mo Shangqiu had just climbed onto the bed when a heavenly voice rang out from outside the door.
Sister Mo, are you asleep?" Mu Chuxue stood outside the door with a frown.
"What's the matter?" Mo Shangqiu sat on the bed and held her forehead with both hands, looking helpless. Saving people was indeed troublesome. It seemed that she shouldn't easily save strangers in the future. Why did Mu Chuxue come to find her in the middle of the night instead of sleeping?
"Can I come in?" Mu Chuxue struggled in her room for a long time before she mustered up the courage to look for Mo Shangqiu.
Mo Shangqiu got off the bed and opened the door, looking at Mu Chuxue in confusion. When Mu Chuxue saw Mo Shangqiu open the door and rush into the room, it was as if she was afraid that Mo Shangqiu wouldn't let her in. Mu Chuxue jumped onto the bed.
Mo Shangqiu was stunned for a moment before she asked," What are you doing?”
Mu Chuxue squinted at Mo Shangqiu. "Can I sleep with you? I'm afraid of the dark."
Mo Shangqiu felt like dying. She really had met a bad person. Mo Shangqiu lay back on the bed silently and extinguished the lights in the room with a wave of her hand.
After sleeping for a while, Mo Shangqiu seemed to recall something and turned to look at Mu Chuxue, whose eyes were tightly shut. "I don't like people touching my hand.”
Mu Chuxue's body stiffened when she heard that. She was still very nervous when she was lying next to Mo Shangqiu. Mu Chuxue hummed softly, not daring to open her eyes to look at Mo Shangqiu. She could feel that Mo Shangqiu was currently looking at her.
Mu Chuxue had been worried at night and had not been able to sleep well. Even though he had not followed Mo Shangqiu for a long time, he was still very clear about Mo Shangqiu's character. Perhaps it was because she was too tired, Mu Chuxue turned over and fell asleep.
Mo Shangqiu felt uncomfortable sleeping on the bed, causing her to have a sleepless night. The next day, she woke up early and went out to get some fresh air. Mu Chuxue was woken up by the noise downstairs. When she woke up, Mo Shangqiu was nowhere to be seen. Startled, she hurriedly got up and opened the door to look for Mo Shangqiu. The moment she opened the door, she saw a tired Mo Shangqiu.
Sister Mo, where did you go?" Mu Chuxue looked at her and felt her heart ache. What had happened to make her so tired?
"It's windy outside. I'll take a nap first. You wash up and go eat.”Mo Shangqiu fell onto the bed, burying her head in the pillow and letting out a muffled sound.
"Oh." Mu Chuxue didn't want to disturb her, so she naturally agreed to her suggestion. However, she felt a little guilty. It was probably because of her that she didn't sleep the entire night.
Mu Chuxue went out shopping after dinner. Mu Chuxue went to the jewelry store. He wanted to buy something for Mo Shangqiu.
Mu Chuxue entered the biggest jewelry store in town and was dazzled by the jewelry. Mu Chuxue strolled around slowly, carefully choosing. When they arrived at the cabinet filled with crystals, they couldn't help but exclaim in admiration. It was too beautiful. There were so many crystal accessories.
