Chapter 2773: Inconvenient
“Ouch!”
Gray Wolf’s head was struck with the broom. He covered his head and cried out in pain as he dodged and yelled “A handful of steamed buns? I, your Uncle, would normally refuse to eat these!”
“How can someone like you be an Uncle? Hurry up and get lost!” The peddler waved his broom away, then returned, scolding. “A beggar acts like he’s an Uncle? I’ll be your Grandfather if you were an Uncle.”
Gray Wolf scowled at him. “You, just you wait!” A tiger descending to flat terrain would be insulted by dogs. Even a peddler dared to bully him?
Gray Wolf walked down the street with the broken bowl, but no one gave him anything. He hadn’t eaten anything all day and he was so hungry that he had no energy to move.
It would have been fine if his spirit energy breath hadn’t been sealed, but because it had, he felt even more ravenous. As a result, he had to return to the street corner and watch the crowded street. “It’s difficult to be a beggar these days!” he sighed.
When Feng Jiu left the room in the evening, she noticed Xuanyuan Mo Ze sitting in the courtyard. “Do you want to go for a walk?” she asked, casting a glance at him.
“Yes,” Xuanyuan Mo Ze said, his lips slightly raised.
Feng Jiu took a step outside. When Xuanyuan Mo Ze saw this, he immediately reached out to take her hand. When she turned around, he gave her a smile. “Let’s walk hand in hand.” With that, he grasped her hand tightly and left.
She didn’t say anything when she saw their hands clasped tightly, but when she got to the front yard, she stopped and said, “Let’s take Hao’er with us! Let’s take him for a walk.”
“Let Leng Shuang bring him along.” He said and then gave an order. “Tell Leng Shuang to carry Hao’er and go out with us.”
“Yes.” Shadow One, hiding in the dark, gave a reply and proceeded to the courtyard where Leng Shuang was.
The two were waiting in a pavilion at the front. However, Yun Xuexin arrived before Leng Shuang and Hao’er.
“Senior Brother, Ghost Doctor.” Yun Xuexin, still dressed in white, approached slowly. When she saw the two of them in the pavilion, she asked with a smile, “I’m going for a stroll. Would Senior Brother and Ghost Doctor be interested in joining?”
Xuanyuan Mo Ze looked at Feng Jiu and saw that she was not going to respond. “We are going out as well.” He replied.
“Really? Can I come along? Shopping alone is somewhat boring.” She said sheepishly. “I have no friends in this area. If Senior Brother had not accompanied me, I would usually go on my own.”
Feng Jiu’s lips slightly curled and she glanced at her. “Young Miss Yun should take the time to stroll alone. There are so many das.h.i.+ng heroes in Hundred Rivers City. Since Young Miss Yun looks so beautiful. It may not be long before you make new friends.”
Xuanyuan Mo Ze, seated next to her, looked away in silence. As a grown man, he should exercise caution and refrain from interfering in the affairs of Feng Jiu and Yun Xuexin, lest she sulks again when he inadvertently says the wrong thing.
Stunned, Yun Xuexin looked at Feng Jiu, then at the silent Xuanyuan Mo Ze, and said in a forlorn voice, “Yes, Ghost Doctor goes out with Senior Brother. It is not appropriate for me to tag along.”
Feng Jiu said with a smile, “That’s not to say it’s inappropriate. However, as Young Miss Yun stated, you have no friends here. So if you walk around alone, you will have the opportunity to make new friends.”
