Chapter 301: Chapter 301 Minister under the Skirt (23)
Chuzheng drew Xie Shu’s hand into her cloak, hugging him as they moved forward, with Xuan Qi protecting him, completely shielding him from the chill.
Xie Shu seemed contemplative as he gazed into the distance, the light in his eyes dimming slightly.
Five years…
Yao Ye led the way, and they didn’t encounter anyone for about two hours, until at last they saw a group of sizeable structures.
[Main quest: Please spend twenty Ice Snow Crystals within two hours.] The King’s Account began to play its role with utmost diligence.
Chuzheng: “…”
Damn it!
[Miss, let’s be civil, we should act like someone who wastes their fortune with quality.]
Shut up!
[…] Why must you be so fierce, look at the other young ladies, how gentle they are, never swearing. Why must it be so miserable, wuwuwu.
Chuzheng hugged Xie Shu, suddenly resting her head against his shoulder.
Xie Shu paused slightly, “Miss Jun, what’s wrong?”
“I want to kiss you.” I want to kiss the Good Person Card, I want to kiss…
“…”
Xie Shu looked ahead, Yao Ye had already crossed the hill and was out of sight.
Xie Shu lowered his head and kissed Chuzheng’s lips.
It was quick, and he lifted the corners of his lips slightly, “Miss Jun, is that enough?”
Chuzheng: “…” I didn’t even feel it!
Chuzheng thought she had indulged him for so long, it was time to collect some interest, so she grabbed him and kissed him.
Xie Shu, hugged by Chuzheng at the waist and with no escape, clenched his teeth subconsciously.
“Be good, open up.”
Xie Shu refused.
“Miss Jun, Young Master Xie, hurry up.”
Yao Ye’s voice came from over the hill.
“If you don’t open your mouth, Yao Ye will come over soon, do you want him to see?”
Xie Shu: “…”
Chuzheng’s threat worked, and Xie Shu relaxed his jaw. The next second, his lips and teeth were pried open, and a soft tongue slipped in.
“Miss Jun, Young Master Xie?”
“What are you doing?”
Yao Ye’s voice grew closer, and Chuzheng let go of Xie Shu, casually taking him over the hillside.
–
Yao Ye felt something was amiss when he entered the city; there used to be a lot of people when he visited before, but now the entire city seemed desolate.
“Brother, where is everyone?” Yao Ye grabbed someone to ask.
“They all went to Lingxiang Residence.”
“What are they doing in Lingxiang Residence?”
“You don’t know?”
Yao Ye scratched his head, looking unlucky, “Cough, I fell into a Secret Realm before and have just come out.”
There are many Secret Realms in Dongyuan, and many don’t contain any treasures at all. It’s possible to be stuck in one for years before getting out.
So when Yao Ye said this, the person didn’t doubt him at all.
“There’s a relic that’s been found in Lingxiang Residence. Someone hired a lot of people from here to take them there.”
“What kind of relic?”
“How would I know that? But I heard the relic has already been closed, and there’s a rumor that the family head of the Shen Family was injured.”
Yao Ye asked a few more questions and then left with a rather grim expression.
“I have to return for a bit, if you need anything, use this to find me at the Shen Family.” Yao Ye handed Chuzheng a token.
He glanced at Xie Shu, pulling Chuzheng to the side.
“Don’t let anyone find out he’s from the Xie Family of Heavy Snow Night Moon.”
“Understood.”
Yao Ye left in a hurry, and Chuzheng took Xie Shu to engage in some wasteful spending.
Chuzheng exchanged Ice Snow Crystals for a comfortable carriage.
