Chapter 3046 Let Go!
The pet.i.te lady hopped onto Ling"s back and fixed a vigilant gaze on Second Young Sir. Despite her diminished size, there was no awkwardness in staying close to Qin Xin. Emotionally, however, she remained unwilling to engage in any intimate contact. Allowing him to touch her head was already pus.h.i.+ng the limits for Her Excellency Lady Qiaoqiao!
Second Young Sir Qin looked at her helplessly and acquiesced, "Alright then."
Think you can object? Qiao Mu shot him a glance, tugging at Ling"s hair with her pet.i.te hand. "Hurry up and leave."
Ling cried out, "Hey, don"t pull my hair!"
"Who said I pulled your hair?" The little lady"s small hand suddenly stiffened, retracting with a snort.
"Qiaoqiao, are you planning to let me halfway up the cliff before pulling back the vines and letting me fall?" Ling, carrying the young lady, jumped down from the cliff, gripping the green vines released by Qiao Mu.
Expressionless, the little lady retorted, "Do you think I"m as despicable as you? A group of shameless old monsters ganging up to capture a child."
Ling gritted her teeth at the child"s words. "Bullying a child, an old man bullying a darling, and a man bullying a woman. Despicable!"
Her Excellency Lady Qiaoqiao harrumphed, turning her pet.i.te head to gaze into the distance. The area was adorned with red and bronze cliffs, presenting a spectacular view. As she climbed the cliff, the narrow valley stretched into the distance, flanked by majestic peaks that seemed to have split the earth. A deep valley extended ahead, outlining the vastness of heaven and earth.
She sighed, feeling a sense of insignificance in the vastness of the world.
"Qiaoqiao, what"s on your mind?"
"Release my divine sense!" Qiao Mu impatiently exclaimed. "I"m heading to the inner world to find something to eat."
"Hungry?" Ling chuckled, conjuring a carrot from her inner world and offering it to the little lady.
Qiao Mu: !
She punched him on the head without reservation. This old demon was resorting to feeding her carrots?
Was Her Excellency Lady Qiaoqiao supposed to be a rabbit?
Even a rabbit would bite when provoked!
"Violence," Ling grumbled. As he spoke, he descended the cliff.
The moment her feet touched the ground, she sensed a weight on her back. Turning around, she saw Second Young Sir Qin urgently reaching out to lift the little lady off her back and set her aside.
"Let go!" the small figure roared, kicking her short legs.
How dare this impudent fellow carry Her Excellency Lady Qiaoqiao? Who gave you such audacity?
Second Young Sir placed her on the ground, patting her furrowed brow in irritation. "It"s already late. Let"s go to the Cave Abode ahead and rest for the night. We"ll depart at dawn."
Qiao Mu glanced at him, perplexed.
What a peculiar fellow. He actually dared to stop. Was he waiting for her fiancé?
"Don"t worry, with Mo Lian and the others" intelligence, it"ll probably take them at least a day and a half to catch up."
She wanted to slap him!
Qiao Mu retorted with anger, her expression cold, "What exactly did you do?"
"You want to know?" Second Young Sir Qin lowered his head, glanced at her, and then waved his hand. "Follow me."
It wasn"t that he genuinely wanted her to follow. After enduring a day of trials, crossing water, leaping over cliffs, and running for miles, Qiao Mu looked visibly fatigued. Since Second Young Sir Qin suggested resting for the night, he intended to make it worthwhile!
