Chapter 735 Set Off Together

Who would have thought that this inconspicuous fat woman would turn out to be a ravishing beauty?

The bookstore owner swallowed and was glad that he didn’t treat her lightly.

He quickly handed the quilt to the guards around the woman.

Some of them were guarding the woman and the man, while some came up to help.

After instructing someone to leave some money to buy the quilt, Lin Mengya followed Long Tianyu, who was carried by some guards, out on crutches with difficulty and smiled helplessly at the onlookers.

She could rarely go out without attracting attention, but as soon as Long Tianyu appeared, she became the focus of attention.

Unwilling to expose the place where she and her company stayed temporarily, she had no other choice but to lead them to an inn in the city.

She thought that someone as alert as Long Tianyu would wake up soon.

She just wanted to persuade him to go back and then moved on without his company.

Unexpectedly, he slept all day.

After waking up from a sound sleep, she found that she was tightly held by him.

“Are you… awake?” Lin Mengya heard his voice.

She did not dare to raise her head, but she could feel that he put his chin on her head and then moved it away slowly.

Facing him, she couldn’t say a word to apologize to him or console him.

“Would you like to sleep a little longer? It’s still early,” he said lovingly in a hoarse voice as usual, without questioning or reprimanding her.

She, who got a lump in the throat with her eyes getting slightly wet, could only bury her head in his arms, at a loss what to do.

“Qinghu has been here and told me your destination. Let’s go together. No matter what the result is, let’s bear it together,” Long Tianyu held her in his arms comfortably and said.

In fact, Qinghu had sneaked in here after she fell asleep.

It could be said that their meeting was arranged by Qinghu.

At that time, Qinghu was watching them not far away. Fortunately, he had recognized her.

Otherwise, Qinghu probably would have taken Lin Mengya away without saying a word.

After coming here, Qinghu also explained why Lin Mengya had to stay away from him.

This time, he might really lose her.

But he didn’t care about it. At least at this moment, she was still in his arms, wasn’t she?

“I… I’m really afraid that I’ll die and leave you alone. It’s unfair to you, Long Tianyu,” Lin Mengya lifted her head and said with her eyes brimming with tears.

A moment later, he pressed his lips on hers.

Feeling his warmth after all this time, Lin Mengya could not help but open her lips and kiss him back.

Their affection for each other instantly eased the tense and embarrassing atmosphere between the two of them.

“Can I go with you?” Long Tianyu pressed his head against her head and whispered pleadingly and humbly in her ear.

What else could she say? Could she reject his request and then go to find out about her uncertain fate with regret?

Perhaps she could do it without hesitation before today.

But from the moment Lin Mengya saw Long Tianyu, she was aware that his deep affection for her brought her escape plan to naught once again.

“You are so cunning,” Lin Mengya murmured.

Even she could not help but feel helpless about Long Tianyu’s craftiness.

However, he made concessions gently in order to gain advantages so that she involuntarily fell into the trap he set elaborately.

“You must not go back on your word. Lin Kui, we are setting off. Get ready for it,” Long Tianyu said, showing a cunning smile when Lin Mengya did not notice him.

He knew how stubborn and intelligent the woman in his arms was and that it was destined that she could never just be a woman dependent on her husband.

As such, it was best to let her do what she wanted.

Although she was going on an adventurous journey, it was the best choice she could make.

Lin Mengya had thought that allowing Long Tianyu to join them would cause trouble.

But she didn’t expect it to cause such big trouble.

Given her alias, she was still an unmarried girl, in name at least.

However, Long Tianyu somehow became so deeply dependent on her that he refused to leave her for even a moment.

Before they set off, she had time and again instructed Long Tianyu not to reveal their identities and the relationship between them.

However, every time he met Hou Yuetian, he became an embittered man, whose every expression seemed to be indicating his great displeasure.

She massaged her aching glabella, thinking, “Hou Yuetian is a nice person, gentle and refined in manners. Why is he, who is on intimate terms with Xiao Yixin, always indifferent to Hou Yuetian? Does he have social phobia? No way! It couldn’t happen to Long Tianyu!”

“Tell me, have you really decided to bring your husband, who acted like a clingy wolf dog, with us?” Qinghu, who stood beside Lin Mengya, asked with an undisguised gloating smile.

Unsurprisingly, Lin Mengya rolled her eyes at him.

“What else can I do? Drive him back, and then wait for him to find us again? Thanks for the route you chose! Didn’t you say that no one would expect us to take this route? In this case, why did he catch up with us so easily?” As Lin Mengya said, she gave Qinghu a hard look.

Although she didn’t point out it had something to do with Qinghu, Qinghu was wet with cold sweat.

Rolling his eyes, he said dully, “As a wolf dog, of course, he’s quite capable of looking for people. We’re about to reach the Nation of Dongxia. Are you sure it’s fine for them to get along with each other in this way?”

In fact, before Qinghu reminded her, she had noticed the most fatal problem.

Although Qinghu had sent his subordinates to the Nation of Dongxia to inquire about the Seven Poisons Sacred Grass, it was too rare.

Although they were sure the Seven Poisons Sacred Grass was in the Nation of Dongxia, it was likely to be found in only two places in the country.

One of the places was a large city known as Jiang City, the southernmost part of the Nation of Dongxia, and they were going there down the river.

There was an isolated island outside Jiang City. Because there were a lot of poisonous insects and plants on it, it was almost a piece of barren land.

Nevertheless, Lin Mengya’s sharp instinct told her that despite the dangerous environment on the island, among the numerous people in Jiang City, there could be some capable people who had gone there before.

Furthermore, only the Seven Poisons Sacred Grass with seven identical leaves could be considered mature.

No one could guarantee that the Seven Poisons Sacred Grass in Jiang City had not been picked by someone else before maturing.

She had to think about different possibilities. Therefore, Hou Yuetian’s help seemed to be extremely important at this moment.

Although they did not know Hou Yuetian’s real identity, Qinghu once told her that Hou Yuetian might be of extremely high status in the Nation of Dongxia.

At present, the situation in the Nation of Dongxia had just been stabilized, and many places in the country were still very chaotic.

Without Hou Yuetian’s help, their operation might be hindered.

But now…

Lin Mengya glanced at the two men, who were trying to sound out each other’s intention with a fake smile not far away.

She was distressed. They were both quite broad-minded before meeting each other.

Why did they give her a hard time after becoming traveling companions?

At Long Tianyu’s insistence, they changed their boat into a bigger and more luxurious one.

However, for the first time, he came into conflict with Hou Yuetian over room assignment.

Long Tianyu sat in a chair with a cold and disdainful look in his black eyes.

The hypocrite in front of him dared to drool over his wife.

He was not narrow-minded, but he was more familiar with that guy’s gaze than anyone else.

“I’m sorry. I didn’t know that you travel with us, so I didn’t prepare your rooms on the boat. That painted pleasure boat is fine. Why don’t you stay there?” He said, suggesting that Houyue Tian and his company were the fifth wheel.

How could Hou Yuetian not understand what he meant?

He, not to be outdone, looked into Long Tianyu’s eyes. From the moment Long Tianyu appeared, he had a strong sense of crisis.

Brother Su had never allowed any man to get close to his sister easily.

Even Hou Yuetian had to keep a certain distance from Miss Su every time he talked with her. Otherwise, her overly protective brother would show an extremely sinister smile at him.

But he saw it with his own eyes that Miss Su was carried on board by this man.

However, Brother Su did not stop the man. Instead, he even acted as if he didn’t see it, went to pack her sister’s bags and then boarded the ship without saying anything.

It only meant that this man was definitely the one Brother Su described as his sister’s perfect match!

He knew better than anyone about men claiming to be distant male cousins.

“It doesn’t matter. After spending all this time traveling with Miss Qingge, I’ve been used to living in a narrow cabin. Brother Liu, I saw many empty cabins on your ship, but because they are a little primitive, you think it inappropriate to offer them as our rooms. Nevertheless, we are not guests, so we don’t mind living in those rooms,” Hou Yuetian said.

The Nation of Dongxia had the most unobstructed waterways, so he grew up on a ship.

He could tell at a glance how many cabins there were in this kind of ship.

The man tried to deceive him? Humph, in the next life!

“How can we do that? It would be inappropriate. Come on, take Childe Hou off the ship,” Long Tianyu said and narrowed his eyes with a dangerous look in them.

He wouldn’t allow Hou Yuetian to stay on the ship!

He glanced at his wife with dissatisfaction. This guy was obviously up to no good. How could she be so stupid to allow this guy to travel with her?

“It doesn’t matter. I don’t mind. Besides, Miss Qingge has something to discuss with me every day. It’s inconvenient for me to go back and forth between two ships,” Hou Yuetian said sincerely and respectfully while sneering in his heart.

He wouldn’t let Long Tianyu drive him out!

Although the man Miss Su met earlier was not necessarily her perfect match, he had fallen behind in the competition for love, so he decided to make up for it by staying close to her.

“No, the room is too primitive for you. The two ships are very close. We will send someone to notify you if we need you,” Long Tianyu said.

“It’s fine. Miss Qingge’s business is urgent. I’d better stay here and talk with her in person,” Hou Yuetian said.
