Exchange Fate! She Saved the whole family and the Short-Lived Marquis! Chapter 62: Xiao Chengyu’s Ears Quietly Turned Red
It truly is Fu Shinian!
Xiao Chengyu still couldn’t believe it as he looked at Fu Shinian.
But he saw Fu Shinian walk up to him, tilt her head, and ask, "Lord, are you well?"
Xiao Chengyu lowered his head and saw Fu Shinian’s familiar bright eyes above the veil.
If this person in front of him wasn’t Fu Shinian, who could it be?
This young girl appeared before him so vividly.
Xiao Chengyu’s heart pounded like a drum, fast and heavy.
His hands instinctively clasped Fu Shinian’s shoulders, but in the next instant, his movents froze.
"You shouldn’t have co in!" Xiao Chengyu pulled Fu Shinian’s arm, "I’ll send you out of the city."
Fu Shinian grabbed Xiao Chengyu’s arm in return, "Lord, I ca here to find you, I won’t leave."
"Do you know the situation here?" Xiao Chengyu said through gritted teeth, "You can’t stay here!"
"Jing Lai, prepare the carriage!" Xiao Chengyu said, then asked Fu Shinian, "Did you co here by yourself?"
After asking, Xiao Chengyu realized he had asked a foolish question. How could a young girl like Fu Shinian have co all the way to Ganning on her own, so he asked again, "Who did you co with?"
Who could be so bold to bring Fu Shinian this far!
"Uncle Cheng was delivering supplies to the army, I ca along with them," Fu Shinian said, "Now the convoy has continued northwest, and I’m the only one left here, even if you prepare a carriage, there’s no one to send back."
"I’ll have Jing Lai send you back," Xiao Chengyu said, "and arrange two guards for you."
"Lord, aren’t you afraid of spreading the epidemic?" Fu Shinian said.
Xiao Chengyu’s face was tight, Fu Shinian said, "I heard Mr. Hu say that because you’re afraid of spreading the epidemic, you wouldn’t leave by any ans."
"But now, you actually want to leave?" Fu Shinian said.
Xiao Chengyu’s face fell.
If it was anyone else who ca in here, there would be no chance of leaving.
But this is Fu Shinian, she’s different.
In Xiao Chengyu’s twenty-four years of life, it was the first ti he broke his principles so resolutely and knowingly for soone, knowing it was wrong yet still doing it.
"Yes," Xiao Chengyu said, "if sothing happens, I’ll take responsibility, but you can’t stay here."
Ganning City now was not much better than a living hell.
He couldn’t let the young girl stay here and watch her get infected, struggling to death like those who had caught the epidemic.
"What about you, Lord? Have you thought about yourself?" Fu Shinian said, "Since you’re staying here and won’t leave, how could I possibly leave on my own?"
"I’m different," Xiao Chengyu said softly, "Everyone knows I don’t have long to live."
"You promised , Lord," Fu Shinian said stubbornly and insistently, "You promised to try your best to live on."
"Even in a situation like this, Lord, you shouldn’t be thinking that you don’t have long to live, that dying from infection in the city wouldn’t be a pity," Fu Shinian said, her eyes red, "If that’s what you think, then what was the point of my sleepless nights making fragrances and pills for you? And following Uncle Cheng’s convoy here out of worry for you, what was that for?"
Xiao Chengyu felt like sothing was gripping his throat, rendering him speechless, stunned as he looked at Fu Shinian.
Even if he thought it impossible, he had doubted, wondering if the young girl had not co specifically for him.
Now hearing it from the young girl herself, his heart pounded quickly and excitedly, yet it was sour and overwheld.
Xiao Chengyu felt as if he was soaked in a swelling wave of emotion.
Just when he couldn’t speak, Fu Shinian said, "You don’t want to be blad for spreading the epidemic, but what about ?"
"Since I’ve co here, I am prepared and aware of possible death," Fu Shinian said, "If you don’t want to see , Lord, I’ll rent a little courtyard in the city."
Saying this, Fu Shinian turned to leave without any hesitation.
Who would have thought the young girl would just leave like that, at least give him a chance to speak?
Xiao Chengyu could only chase after her, taking three steps in two, and grabbed Fu Shinian’s arm, "You young girl, even if you want to convict , you should at least give a chance to repent? I haven’t had a chance to say anything yet."
Hu Pingcheng was shocked; the person in front of him wasn’t a young lad, but a young girl?
He really was blind as a bat!
"Have you repented, Lord?" Fu Shinian raised her eyebrows slightly.
But Xiao Chengyu saw by her reaction that she still hadn’t forgiven him.
"Since you won’t leave, I’d feel more at ease having you by my side," Xiao Chengyu sighed, "Did you bring luggage?"
Xiao Chengyu saw the four carts, seemingly full of dicine, without any luggage.
"I only brought this small bundle." Fu Shinian took off the bundle from her shoulder.
The bundle was small and light, only containing a change of clothes.
Fu Shinian didn’t expect Xiao Chengyu to casually take her luggage, quickly saying, "Lord, I can carry it myself, it’s not heavy."
"If it’s not heavy, I’ll carry it for you." Xiao Chengyu said, and suddenly paused.
Rembering the previous hunting trip when Fu Shinian mistakenly placed a bundle containing her intimate garnts in front of him.
If Fu Shinian only brought this one small bundle on her trip, it ant this bundle also contained her intimate garnts.
Through the bundle, Xiao Chengyu suddenly felt his hand burning.
His ears turned red secretly, inwardly scolding himself for thinking such thoughts.
Jing Lai arranged for soone to move all the dicine inside and then prepared a courtyard for Fu Shinian.
Surprisingly, the place Jing Lai prepared for Fu Shinian was actually right next to Xiao Chengyu’s.
Seeing Fu Shinian’s astonished expression, Jing Lai explained, "There’s no large mansion in Ganning City. The place prepared for the Lord is already the largest available, but it still can’t compare to the Marquis’s residence in the capital, so it’s a bit compact. Altogether, these are the only two decent courtyards."
Fu Shinian nodded, not minding.
She had been on a long journey, with many hardships.
Just surprised she ended up so close to Xiao Chengyu.
After Jing Lai left, Xiao Chengyu stared at Fu Shinian, "Did you co specifically to find ?"
"No," Fu Shinian imdiately denied, "I just wanted to see the scenery outside, and I just happened to pass by Ganning."
Xiao Chengyu sighed softly, "Didn’t you just say you sneaked out and mixed into Cheng Yuanshan’s convoy?"
Fu Shinian froze imdiately, having spoken the truth in a mont of panic.
She couldn’t say she knew an epidemic would occur in Ganning and that the city’s dicine was insufficient.
Worried that Xiao Chengyu would get infected there and die, perhaps?
If Xiao Chengyu died, the Fu family would have no chance at success.
