Chapter 987: True Love was Xuan Xiaotian
When Xuan Hongyu kidnapped Shangguan Qingrou before, he didn’t do anything to her. He even took her around on a scenic tour. Rumors say that Shangguan Qingrou actually found it pretty fun.
Shangguan Qingrou definitely never expected for something like this to happen.
Xuan Hongyu said that he wanted to ruin Shangguan Qingrou, and as of now, Shangguan Qingrou was already ruined.
He still had feelings for Shangguan Qingrou, so he used this method to ruin Shangguan Qingrou.
His possessive obsession was truly horrifying.
As of now, Xuan Xiaotian had probably already gone crazy from anger. This method caused trouble for everyone.
However, the current Xuan Hongyu had nothing left. Those who were already barefoot no longer feared losing shoes.
Ning Shu bought some vegetables, then headed back to the mountains. When she got back, she saw that Xuan Hongyu was holding a book and reciting something profoundly difficult to understand to Xuan Miexiao again.
When she recalled the rumors in the capital, she had to take deep breaths to calm her annoyance.
She felt that it was probably about time to change locations. If they continued waiting like this, they’d definitely end up captured, especially with Xuan Hongyu courting death like this.
When Xuan Miexiao saw Ning Shu come back, he actually stood up and staggered towards Ning Shu. Ning Shu set down the things she was holding to catch the child that looked about to fall.
Xuan Hongyu glanced at Ning Shu, then closed the book and headed back into the stone room. Ning Shu followed after him as she said, “Master, should we change locations?”
Ning Shu felt that they really couldn’t stay here any longer. Every time she entered the city to buy things, she would buy from a different store out of worry that she’d be recognized.
However, the capital was no longer safe with so many guards on patrol and the arrest orders posted everywhere. For escaped criminals, whether they were dead or alive, there’d still be a large reward. This imperial order illustrated just how furious Xuan Xiaotian was.
So they should switch to a different place.
She was still in this world, which meant that this task wasn’t over yet. All she wanted right now was to get Xuan Hongyu further away from Xuan Xiaotian. If they were too close, it was easy for incidents to occur.
Xuan Hongyu lifted his brows. “Even if we are to leave, it wouldn’t be now.”
Ning Shu: …
Could it be that you still want to watch Xuan Xiaotian struggle more? If you rejoice too much in other people’s misfortune, before you know it, the tables will turn on you!
If you really frickin’ ended up being captured by Xuan Xiaotian, your death won’t be pretty!
After yanking the tiger’s beard, you’re not bolting and instead, hanging around to enjoy the tiger’s pained expression?
This manner of courting death truly widened Ning Shu’s view of the world.
“Master…”
“Be quiet.” Xuan Hongyu cut Ning Shu off. “This prince is hungry.”
Ning Shu really wanted to just slap him. It seemed that if someone wanted to court death, stopping them wasn’t even possible.
Ning Shu angrily hacked at the veggies, then chopped up the meat before tossing them all into the pot to make porridge.
This was the only thing she could cook. Stir-frying food was too high-leveled.
When she served the food, Xuan Hongyu took one glance at the things inside the bowl, then shook his head helplessly. As Ning Shu fed Xuan Miexiao, she said to Xuan Hongyu, “Master, this subordinate feels that it’s still better if we change locations. This place is too dangerous.”
The power of an imperial family couldn’t be underestimated. Ning Shu didn’t feel like it was safe for them to stay here. “Moreover, Master, there’s an arrest order out for you.”
“It’s precisely because there’s an arrest order that we need to stay here. If I leave this place and frequently interact with people, I’ll be recognized,” replied Xuan Hongyu mildly.
Ning Shu was speechless. Wasn’t this clearly just that he didn’t want to leave?
Why exactly was he so fixated on this? It felt like the person Xuan Hongyu truly loved was Xuan Xiaotian. He put his very life on the line in order to do everything he could to cause Xuan Xiaotian trouble.
