Stubborn Love of a Roguish Scion

“Blue Tower?” cried out Ye Erruo in astonishment.

“What’s wrong, sis-in-law?”

Isn’t Gu Feirou a royal princess of Blue Tower?

“Nothing’s wrong.”

“Look into it. This stuff mustn’t be allowed to enter,” ordered Mo Jiangye in a cold, stern voice.

“Orders have already been passed down to alert every other place to this.”

Growl!

Her stomach suddenly grumbled.

Ye Erruo was speechless.

“Hungry?”

The man glimpsed at her from the corner of his eyes. If that batch of people had not come just now, she would already have eaten something.

“Yeah, a little.”

He scooped her up with his big hands.

“What are you doing? Put me down.”

“I’m saving you energy. There’s still quite a long walk before we get out of here,” answered the man.

Meanwhile, Xu Xu was eyeing Ye Erruo with a somewhat ambiguous, mischievous look as he stroked his nose.

After pushing Wang Yiyang to the side, he carefully said, “Sis-in-law, can I ask you a question?”

She turned her head to look at him. “What?”

“Have you gotten it on with our boss?” he whispered inquiringly.

Her ears instantly flushed red. “W-What?”

“Heh…” He could tell right away just by the look on her face that she must have slept with Young Master Mo.

With our boss being so horny, how can he possibly not eat her up?

“He he…” He let out an evil chuckle.

The woman gave him a hard look. “I have no idea what you’re talking about.”

She then turned her head back to lean against her man’s chest, her cheeks tinted with an imperceptible tinge of rosiness.

“You did, right? No need to be shy.” The chap continued smirking evilly.

“Did what?” asked Zheng Yi curiously.

“Not telling you. It’s a secret between me and sis-in-law.”

“…”

From then on, she lay meekly in Mo Jiangye’s embrace and quietly listened to the others’ conversation throughout the journey.

Upon looking down at the small woman in his arms, the man could not resist asking with a smile, “What did he say to you?”

“It’s nothing.”

“Quick, quick. There’s a wild hare!” Wang Yiyang patted Xu Xu in a hurry.

“Woohoo! I didn’t expect to see a wild hare in here.” He quickly pulled out his gun and aimed at the animal.

Bang! The target was precisely hit with just one shot.

“We have something at least.” He then strode forward and picked up the hare by its ears.

“What a fat and meaty one.” Zheng Yi and Wang Yiyang stepped forward to pluck out the rabbit’s fur.

The bright golden rays of the setting sun were shining down on the two sides of the path, making the shadow of Mo Jiangye carrying Ye Erruo extend as they made their way out of the forest along with their boisterous companions, who were carrying their guns and jackets.

At nightfall, a variety of food was roasted over a campfire amid the group’s jovial laughter.

“Ruoruo!” called Shu Xin softly as she carefully approached them.

“I’ll be right back,” Ye Erruo informed her husband.

“Come back soon, sis-in-law.”

“Okay.”

“What’s the matter?” asked Ye Erruo in puzzlement.

Her friend glanced at Mo Jiangye before dragging her away.

“Someone’s looking for you.”

“Who is it?”

“Come with me.” Shu Xin led her by the hand to a big tree far away from the crowd.

“Hm?”

“Wait here for a bit.” Upon saying that, her friend left.

Soon, a black figure walked out.

“Sun You?”

Sun You approached her with a bunch of flowers in his hands. “Please be my girlfriend, Ruoruo.”

“…”

She retreated. “I already have a boyfriend.”

She was just about to turn around and leave when he tugged at her wrist and pinned her against a tree.

“Dump him. You two are not a suitable match. I can give you everything I have.”
