Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
“Why are you here?” Su Qian asked in surprise when she saw Ji Wanwan standing outside her door.contemporary romance
Ji Wanwan was also dressed in black. With her hands behind her back, she mischievously approached Su Qian. “After you left today, my uncle sent me over to persuade you not to take risks for him.”
“But you didn’t come.” Su Qian did not see Ji Wanwan over today.
“Hehe, that’s because I know that even if 1 came to persuade you, you wouldn’t listen to me. To tell you the truth, although we haven’t been together for long, 1 feel that we’re the same kind of people. I can guess that you’re someone who won’t listen to advise easily, so rather than saying hypocritical words to persuade you, I’d rather go on an adventure with you.” Ji Wanwan stuck out her tongue and chuckled. “It’s mainly because 1 know my uncle can completely recover. I don’t want to give up.”
“You’re honest.” Su Qian was surprised Ji Wanwan could be so straightforward. However, being so straightforward was better than being empty talk.
At least, Ji Wanwan knew to go on an adventure with her.
“I would rather be a straightforward and greedy person than a hypocrite.” Ji Wanwan’s eyes curved into crescents as she smiled. “Let’s go then? I know the way. I’ll lead you there.”
“Let’s go.” Su Qian nodded. The two figures created faint shadows in the air, hastening their steps as they left the sub-branch of the Blood Demon Pavilion.
The two of them headed towards the city gate of Wanxiang City. On the way, Ji Wanwan explained to Su Qian, “We’re still some distance away from Longhu Fortress, but I’ve arranged for a carriage outside the city. We’ll get on the carriage once we leave the city. This will save at least half the time. Don’t worry, there will be someone to pick us up when we reach Longhu Fortress…”
Su Qian gazed ahead and notices a figure emerging from an alleyway. She squinted her eyes in vigilance. “Is that the person who’s supposed to assist us?”
“Hmm?” Puzzled, Ji Wanwan looked at the person and realized that it was a young man. “No, I asked First Elder to drive the carriage for us. 1 don’t know this person.”
As Ji Wanwan spoke, the man quickly removed the mask on his face, revealing a cold face.
Su Qian looked at the man and frowned in confusion. “Dong Yan?”
Su Qian had seen Dong Yan many times, so she was sure that she wouldn’t be mistaken.
Ji Wanwan was already on guard when she suddenly heard that Su Qian recognized this man in front of them. She immediately asked in surprise, “You know him?”
“Yes.” After saying that, Su Qian quickened her pace and walked in front of Ji Wanwan. She stood in front of Dong Yan and asked, “Why are you here?”
“I am here on the orders of His Highness, specifically waiting for Miss Su,” Dong Yan said gently.
“What Your Highness? What’s going on?” Ji Wanwan leaned closer to Su Qian and asked with a gossipy expression.
Su Qian lifted her hand to cover Ji Wanwan’s chattering mouth and asked in confusion, “Can you just get to the point? I’m in a hurry to leave the city.”
“His Highness heard that Miss Su encountered some troublesome matters, so he specially asked me to send something to Miss Su. Once Miss Su sees it, perhaps there is no need for you to leave Wanxiang City today.” As he spoke, Dong Yan took off a small black bag from his back and held it in front of Su Qian with both hands.
Su Qian reached out to take the bag and opened the black cloth covering it. Under the black cloth was an exquisitely crafted brocade box. At this moment, Su Qian opened it and revealed the contents..
