Xiao Mu was both surprised and delighted to see Ge'er, whom she hadn't seen in a long time. Ever since she learned that it was Ge'er who risked her life to save her with her heart blood, she felt no...Xiao Yu's song raised her eyes and glanced ahead, she couldn't help but be stunned. She pulled Mu Huan's arm: "Don't think about stimulating others first, you should still think about how to stimulate them next."
"What do you mean" Mu Huan followed her gaze and froze. Thinking of how she had just lost her composure, she suddenly wanted to find a hole to bury herself in.
He can't see me! He can't see me... She lowered her head, biting her lip, murmuring to herself.
But when those long legs appeared before her, she still obediently raised her head and plastered on the smile she had practiced countless times: "Young Master, what a coincidence!" What a coincidence She came back this way from the direction of Qingfeng Guān! Now, even if she jumped into the Yellow River, she wouldn't be able to wash herself clean.
"Princess, quite clever." Wu Chengzong looked at her evasive eyes and suddenly found her rather cute. That day when she had forced him with a confession, it took him several days to digest it. However, seeing her now, that awkwardness seemed to return.
"Young Master, you came here specifically to find the princess" Xiao Yuge looked at the two of them, inexplicably feeling that they were a good match. This Mu Huan was also a genuine girl, and this young master was Qian Tingxuan's friend, so they should be about the same. Perhaps they would make a good couple.
"I... just happened to be passing by." Wu Chengzong was a bit awkward. He was clearly waiting for someone here on purpose, but he couldn't bring himself to say it.
"Well then, you guys chat, I'll go take a walk over there." Xiao Yuge knew that Mu Huan liked the young master in her heart, so naturally she had to create some opportunities for them to be alone.
"Xiao Yu Ge..." Seeing Xiao Yu Ge was about to leave, Mu Huan subconsciously called out to her.
Xiao Yuge sang and glanced back at her with a smile, secretly squinting her eyebrows: "Princess, I have something to do, so I won't keep you company. Young Master, Princess's safety is entrusted to you." After that, ignoring their reactions, she walked away directly. Thinking of the word "safety", she suddenly thought of a way to help Mu Huan. Although the hero saves the beauty method is clichéd, it will never go out of style!
Seeing Wu Chengzong, Mu Huan couldn't help but think about how she had lowered herself as a princess and yet failed to receive any response from him. Naturally, the once proud girl felt resentment in her heart. Although love could not be forced, his complete lack of response was unbearable. She decided to take action, uttering a straightforward question: "Young Master Wu, have you thought it through"
"Sorry, I..." Faced with such a lively and radiant girl, Wu Chengzong's refusal reached his lips but he couldn't bring himself to say it. It seemed as if he was afraid to see the disappointment and sadness in her eyes.
“It’s alright, matters of the heart can’t be forced. Although I am a princess, I cannot force someone to love me. Perhaps it’s just that this princess and the young master are fated not to be together.” Being rejected in front of everyone naturally wasn’t pleasant, but Mu Huan still endured the bitterness in her heart. She was a princess, born with gold and privilege, how could she stoop so low as to beg someone for love
"Sorry..." Wuchengzong thought that with his refusal, she would run away crying like all the other women. He didn't expect her to be so calm. She was indeed extraordinary.
"Young Master, you needn't feel guilty. I am after all the princess of Tianzhu, and will naturally find a good match in the future." Hmph! Who did he think he was She was a princess, did she have to rely on him
"Then Chengzong wished the young lady to find a good match soon!" With the matter settled and seeing that she no longer persisted, Wu Chengzong also let out a sigh of relief inwardly.
Although her heart ached terribly, Muhuan still managed a smile and nodded. Then she turned and left gracefully. She had lost a love, but not everything. There was no need to be sad!
But, she was so sad!
As she rounded the corner, a profound silence engulfed her. Unable to contain herself any longer, she collapsed against the wall, burying her face in her hands and letting out sobs that shook her entire body. Between her cries, she muttered, "What nonsense! If you don't like me, just say so! Do you have to be so blunt Who do you think you are Do you think I, a princess, can't find someone better than you Who do you think you are! You bastard!"
"Princess..." When Xi Gonggong, who had caught up, saw his little princess crying so heartbrokenly, he was filled with concern and kept comforting her: "Our little princess is so beautiful. That young master must be blind to not see it! We don't like him. Let's wait some time and go back to Tianzhu to find someone even better than him!"
"Oh my, who's this young lady crying so sadly Perhaps big brother can comfort you!" Just then, two masked men suddenly appeared, brandishing their swords and approaching Mu Huan and her servants with lecherous intent.
"You, you dare!" Xi Gonggong wouldn't fight, but he still bravely stood in front of the princess.
"We're not afraid! There's no one here, what can you do to us, you old geezer with no hair!" The masked leader gestured to his men to hold Xi Gonggong down!
"Let him go!" Mu Huan was heartbroken and angry at the moment. Seeing someone provoking her, she naturally found a vent for her anger. Driven by fury, she attacked the masked man with bare hands!
"Well now! You've got some moves, little lady!" The masked man saw that Mu Huan had some skill, and became even more energized: "I'll take you back with me later to be my queen!"
“Presumptuous! You scoundrel, die!” Mu Huan’s willow brows stood erect, she flew a kick, kicking the masked man who was holding Happy Public to the side. She pushed Happy Public away and shouted, “Run! Quickly go find Fei Ying!”
"Yes! This old servant will go find the Shadow Guards at once!" Knowing that staying here would only implicate the princess further, Xi Gonggong realized his priority was to call for reinforcements. As he ran, he shouted loudly, "Help! Help!"
Oddly, the two masked men did not pursue him.
"My lady, come back to our mountain stronghold with me!" The masked leader's attack intensified, forcing Mu Huan to retreat step by step, utterly helpless.
Xi Gonggong ran out not long ago, and just happened to see Wu Chengzong, so he shouted loudly: "Young Master! Save my princess!"
After seeing Mu Huan leave like that, Wu Chengzong's mood seemed to drop. He thought to himself, "Since she's not bothering me anymore, I should be happy," but he couldn't shake this feeling of dejection.
Unexpectedly, he hadn't gone far when he heard Lord Xi's cry for help. He didn't think twice and leaped forward, catching Lord Xi who was about to fall. He quickly asked, "What happened Where is the princess"
"Young Master, quickly, go save Princess, she... she's over there being attacked by bandits..." Xi Gonggong, after all, was old. Running this far, he was already out of breath.
"Princess!"
Upon hearing this, Wu Chengzong's heart skipped a beat. He quickly rushed towards the direction. Sure enough, at the corner, he saw Mu Huan fighting fiercely with a masked man. Seeing Mu Huan being struck and flying away by a palm strike, he didn't hesitate and leaped into the air, catching her.she would regret it, but he didn't expect her to regret it so quickly.Seeing the trace of pain in his eyes beneath the mask, Xiao Yuge felt a pang of guilt. She realized her words had been too harsh j...
