Chapter 869 The Fox and the Wolf

A lucky survival was turned into a domestic violence scene by Lin Mengya, who had an outburst of temper.

Fortunately, the fellow had retreated. Otherwise, when he saw that his Young Master, who had always been emotionless, would actually beg for mercy and cry for pain under a woman’s hands, he would definitely feel disillusioned.

“It hurts! I was wrong, my sister. I shouldn’t have hidden it from you. But if I told you, you would definitely worry about me. Maybe you would ask to go with me. I was afraid that I couldn’t protect you. What if you got hurt?”

With his ears savagely destroyed by Lin Mengya, even with Xiaoyu’s endurance, he could only beg for forgiveness and admit his mistake.

“Do you still know that I’m worried? Do you know how sad I will be when I can’t take care of you if you get hurt? Well, now that you’re strong, you don’t care about me at all, do you? Let me tell you. I’ll be your sister for a day and a lifetime. Since I’m your sister, I can’t just stand by and watch you. If this happens next time, I will definitely break your legs!”

She scolded Xiaoyu in a ferocious way. The latter did not dare to talk back and could only nod in agreement. He repeatedly promised that he would never dare to do that again and would be obedient in the future. Only then did Lin Mengya let go of her hands for the time being.

Tears welled up in his eyes as he rubbed his red ears. He would feel extreme pain only when Lin Mengya pinched him.

He stood obediently beside Lin Mengya, nodding and bowing to beg for mercy. And then he massaged her shoulders and back to gallantly take care of her.

Among the three people standing at the door, Baisu and Qinghu had already known what they looked like when they stayed together.

However, Ningqiu, who saw this for the first time, was a little stunned, as if she couldn’t believe it.

“Uh… Is the boy jumping up and down really the Ninth Prince who treats everyone coldly? Do I make it wrong?”

“Please don’t be angry with me. You’re my magnanimous sister. I was forced to do so. I won’t do it again. My good sister, please forgive me, okay?”

Xiaoyu knew that Lin Mengya had always been eloquent, but she was more concerned about him than anyone else in her heart.

He looked at Lin Mengya pitifully. The latter glared at him fiercely and no longer looked at him angrily for the time being.

Seeing that his strategy worked, Xiaoyu showed a sly smile.

With a smile on his face, he came up to Lin Mengya’s side, sniffing greedily at the medicinal scent that belonged exclusively to his sister, a mixed fragrance of poisons and herbs.

He felt that all the fatigue on his body seemed to have completely disappeared in an instant.

“Why are you so close to me? Get away from me. I didn’t say I’d forgiven you.”

She rolled her eyes at him but actually her eyes had never left Xiaoyu.

After looking him up and down and making sure that he was not injured, Lin Mengya felt relieved for the time being.

If anyone dared to hurt Xiaoyu, she would definitely pay them back tenfold or even a hundredfold.

“My good sister, please don’t be angry with me anymore. I promise that I’ll be obedient in the future. By the way, you didn’t encounter any danger on your way here from the royal city, did you?”

He tugged at Lin Mengya’s sleeve and shook it back and forth. Lin Mengya’s expression eased up a little as if she could not stand him.

“Don’t worry, Young Master. The Emperor has arranged everything well along the way. No one has found our whereabouts.”

Baisu said with a smile, but there was a touch of hidden worry in her heart.

The others might not have noticed it. But the moment they entered the door, the way the Young Master hugged the Miss was far from what a younger brother would do to his sister.

That was the look a man would show when he looked at the woman he loved.

But in Miss’s heart, she only loved Prince Yu.

When the Young Master confessed his love for the Miss, she really didn’t know what would happen between them.

“Your father is good at doing things. My little girl has worked hard for you for so many days. Shouldn’t you give her some benefits?”

Qinghu, who had been standing at the door, also had a cold glint in his eyes.

“This boy’s insight is really good.”

Standing quietly beside Lin Mengya, he naturally knew what was in Lin Mengya’s mind. And he also knew how important Xiaoyu was in Lin Mengya’s heart.

He hoped that this guy would get himself killed. Otherwise, he would not let him go, not even for old times’ sake.

“Why are you here? Does Long Tianyu also know about it?”

In fact, from the moment Qinghu appeared, a strong sense of unease had filled Xiaoyu’s heart.

Qinghu was with Long Tianyu at the beginning. His people had also said that Qinghu had stayed by Long Tianyu’s side to help him after Lin Mengya faked her death.

His heart clenched slightly. He had spent a lot of effort to make his sister completely belong to him now.

He couldn’t let that man take her away again.

“He does not know. Qinghu found my body not in the cave by accident, so he followed the clues and found me. I’ve asked him to keep this secret.”

Before Qinghu could say anything, Lin Mengya had surprisingly taken the initiative to cover up for him.

But what she was thinking was that if Xiaoyu knew that Long Tianyu had also come here, he would definitely investigate his purpose.

At that time, it would instead cause some unnecessary misunderstandings.

After all, with Long Tianyu’s identity, it was impossible for him to sneak into other countries just to see her.

She knew the man’s mindsets better than anyone else.

To see her might be the main reason, but it was hard to say if he would do something else “by the way”.

For example, he might sneak into the Meeting of Venomous Insects.

This was not a small matter. If Xiaoyu knew about it, she was afraid that it would cause a stir again.

“That’s good. Some things should not be known by unrelated people.”

Xiaoyu’s words seemed like a warning to Qinghu, who squinted his dangerous eyes.

In the past, he had already known that this child was like a little wolf.

Now that he had grown sharp claws, was he going to snatch the treasure he guarded?

Hmph, he was still too young and too naive.

“Of course. I won’t reveal anything related to you, my little girl. And you might get tired. I’ll take you to have a rest. You little wolf cub, I advise you to spend more time looking at that sister of yours so that we won’t be exposed and all our efforts will not be wasted.”

Qinghu also argued back with intent. Before Lin Mengya noticed the silent eye contacts between the two of them, they dispersed.

Qinghu was surprised by Xiaoyu’s persistence, and Xiaoyu was also secretly shocked by Qinghu’s vigilance.

The fox and the wolf were now enemies in a chess match.

But one only wanted to guard, while the other wanted to plunder.

Lin Mengya nodded. In fact, even without Qinghu’s words, Lin Mengya also felt as if her body had been hollowed out.

She had always been studying on the road for ten days. Both her spirit and physical strength had reached a limit.

“Okay, someone takes the Miss to rest.”

Xiaoyu had already learned not to show his emotions, so he did not show any displeasure under Qinghu’s obstruction.

Instead, he took the initiative to ask someone to take them down to rest, and also told Lin Mengya to ask someone to call for him if she needed anything.

“I’ll go to bed first. When I wake up, I have something important to tell you.”

Lin Mengya rubbed the space between her eyebrows. She knew that if she didn’t rest now, she would be unable to think.

Lin Mengya followed the fellow, accompanied by Qinghu, and returned to the room Xiaoyu had arranged for her.

“You should also go to rest. I’ll find you when I wake up.”

Lin Mengya pushed Qinghu, who wanted to give her a massage, out of the room. Looking at the big bed, Lin Mengya felt very relaxed.

She threw herself onto the bed and closed her eyes. Even she could sense that strange atmosphere with something wrong just now.

Xiaoyu was a little strange, so was Qinghu.

Even Baisu’s reaction was a bit unusual. Could it be that everyone had been infected?

She couldn’t bother to investigate the deeper reasons. For her, everyone was an indispensable member of her family.

She hoped the day could come when they could be together again, as they had been before, living together under the same roof.

In a daze, she fell asleep. When they arrived here, the sun was shining brightly. But when Lin Mengya woke up again, the sky was already full of stars.

When she sat up, the consequence of intense brain work was a bout of trance in her brain.

Recently, she had used her brain a little too hard. Even with the help of the Shen Nung system, she still felt that her brain cells had been exhausted.

“Miss, why are you awake?”

Baisu, who was opening the door gently and quietly, saw Lin Mengya sitting on the edge of the bed in a daze. She immediately put down the minced chicken porridge in her hands and walked over.

“I wake up when I’ve had enough sleep. By the way, what time is it now? What are everyone doing?”

Lin Mengya got up from the bed by herself and sat in front of the table. She scooped up a spoonful of minced chicken porridge, put it to her mouth, and blew on it gently.

Baisu looked at her, bit her lips and said softly, “Qinghu thought it was time for you to wake up, so he went to the kitchen to see if there was anything you liked. As for the Young Master… he took Ningqiu out.”

Baisu was really unable to tell any lies in front of her.

Lin Mengya put down the warm porridge with her eyes fixed on Baisu.

“Tell me, why did Xiaoyu take Ningqiu out of the house for no reason?”

Baisu looked down, feeling a little helpless.

“Actually, the Ninth Prince took Ningqiu to attend the banquet. Young Master said that the Xin Family knew his purpose to come here three days ago, but they were reluctant to talk about it. Now that Ningqiu was here, the Xin Family said that they would hold a reception banquet for Young Master. Young Master thought that this was the best time for Ningqiu to make her appearance, so he took her with him.”

Hearing this, Lin Mengya just nodded.

There was nothing wrong with that. After all, Ningqiu did need a suitable opportunity to make her appearance.

“But you haven’t finished, right? Baisu, you know that you could never lie to me.”

Baisu, whose lie had been completely spotted by Lin Mengya, felt wronged.

It was not that she didn’t want to say it, but the Young Master said that once she told the truth, the Miss would definitely stop him.
