Chapter 1304: Chapter 1304: Understood 248
Bai Su’s words were only half spoken, but unexpectedly, it elicited such a sentence from Wuyou!
“Sir… Sir, you’re not joking, right?” Bai Su was astonished.
“Do I look like I’m joking?” Sikong Wuyou countered.
“No… not like.” Bai Su scratched the back of his head in frustration, unable to fathom what the lord was truly thinking.
Such an important matter as marriage, could it really be joked about like this?
Yesterday, he was enthusiastically preparing betrothal gifts and sending a ssage back to the Royal Residence, asking the Prince and Princess Consort to propose. But today, he’s gone back on it!
The thing is, he still didn’t know which family’s girl the lord was planning to propose to. Unfortunately, she’s caught up with such a fickle-hearted lord, whose inconsistency is chilling.
After Sikong Wuyou left, Bai Su remained completely baffled.
Wen Jing, standing nearby, spoke at this mont, “The lord left yesterday evening and didn’t return until late at night. He sat by the window all night until dawn before going out to practice martial arts.”
Seeing Wen Jing’s silhouette, Bai Su beca even more perplexed and asked him, “So, the matter of preparing betrothal gifts—should we still proceed with it now?”
Inside the room, Sikong Wuyou watched Bai Su outside, who seed obliviously exposed, his gaze darkening repeatedly.
Last night, the girl’s ruthless silhouette crossed his mind, a faint sadness flickering in Sikong Wuyou’s heart.
He was born an abnormal person; perhaps he shouldn’t have any fantasies or desires.
To be able to pass through this life steadily is already a grace from heaven; why bother with miscellaneous thoughts?
Sikong Wuyou’s myriad thoughts flickered, and An Ning was unlikely to know them, just like how Wuyou seed unaware of her inner thoughts.
Between them, one was unwilling to accept the other out of inferiority, while the other, after finally taking that step by accident, retreated again due to the other’s rejection.
In Taohua Village, An Ning returned ho holding Xiaoniu, only to find An He and Mrs. Qiu sitting in the courtyard, their faces full of worry.
“What happened? Did sothing happen again last night?” An Ning instinctively wondered.
An Dafu and Mrs. Qiu exchanged a glance and spoke, “I saw that thing last night; it was a wolf!”
As he spoke, recalling last night’s scene sent a shiver down An Dafu’s spine.
“A wolf?” An Ning was shocked, her body shivering involuntarily.
It’s late sumr, not the harshest part of winter; how could a wolf be coming down the mountain at this ti?
Recalling the Silver Wolf she had trapped in space not long ago, she couldn’t help but wonder if the wolf pack ca for revenge.
It’s said that wolves are extrely vengeful; being rembered by them is not a good thing.
“The chicken coop…” An Ning’s heart sank with dashed hopes; if it truly was a wolf, last night wouldn’t have spared much.
However, the outco was unexpected to An Ning, “The chicken coop is fine; I was just startled by that wolf. Thinking back, I still haven’t cald down yet.”
“You went out?” An Ning was suddenly surprised.
Mrs. Qiu’s nose suddenly tingled, “I can’t believe it. Last night, hearing noises from there, he insisted on going to check. He just happened to run into that wolf. Luckily, nothing happened to him. If sothing had happened, what would I do…”
An Dafu sullenly rubbed his nose, “You said it yourself; I’m fine, aren’t I?”
