Chapter 369: What If The Emperor Could Not Contain Himself
“It depends. If it turns out to be serious…” He paused, “I’ll spank you.”
Hearing this, Lu Liangwei felt a certain part of her body heat up despite not being hit yet.
Two splotches of red emerged on her face under the veil, and she scolded in her heart, ‘How indecent!’
“Then I’m not going to tell you.” After saying that, Lu Liangwei closed her mouth tightly, unwilling to open it again.
Long Yang was amused by her behavior, and his large hand grasped her dainty one hanging by her side. “Don’t worry. I definitely won’t convict you.” Holding her hand, he started walking down the mountain.
Seeing this, Lu Liangwei hurriedly asked, “Where are we going?”
“I heard from Chu Qi that there’s a small town at the foot of Tianzhu Mountain. It’s a bustling place. I’ll take you there to look around,” Long Yang said in all apparent seriousness.
Lu Liangwei, “…” Could she even say no?
Without giving her a chance to refuse, Long Yang led her down the mountain.
Zhu Yu was about to follow, but Chu Jiu stopped her. “With His Majesty around, Second Miss will be fine.”
“But…” Zhu Yu looked at the two walking down the mountain, feeling conflicted emotions. It was precisely because the Emperor was around that she was worried something would happen.
The Emperor had traveled all the way to see Miss. What if he could not contain himself…
The Dowager d.u.c.h.ess would break her legs.
But the Emperor was scary too…
As Miss’s most loyal maidservant, she must stand fearless against authority and protect Miss with her life.
With that thought in her mind, she gritted her teeth and pushed Chu Jiu away, making a move to go after them.
However, she had barely taken two steps before being hit by something from behind, and she froze on one leg, unable to move.
Out of the corner of her eye, she saw Chu Qi, who had been standing there like a shadow, walk past her. He seemed to glance at her before going after the Emperor and Miss down the mountain.
Zhu Yu immediately panicked. What was happening to her now? Why could she not move? Had she been possessed?
At this moment, Chu Jiu, whom she had just pushed aside, stepped forward and effortlessly carried her into the holiday home.
Zhu Yu wanted to curse, but she was horrified to find that she could not make a sound.
Chu Jiu hurled her straight onto the bed. Seeing Zhu Yu staring at her in fear, she paused for a while, then explained to her out of the goodness of her heart, “I told you not to follow, but you wouldn’t listen. Great, now Chu Qi has sealed your pressure points, and no one besides him can unseal them. During this period, you can only lie down like this.
“Of course, it’s impossible to expect Chu Qi to unseal them for you, but once the time is up, they’ll automatically unseal themselves, so you don’t have to worry too much. You’re probably tired anyway; take this opportunity to have a good nap.” She then flung the covers over Zhu Yu.
It was the first time Zhu Yu heard Chu Jiu talk so much, but now she wanted nothing more than to cut her tongue off.
This was too much.
Why were they all bullying poor little her? Miss…
Her eyes filled with angry and anxious tears, but there was nothing she could do.
When the Dowager d.u.c.h.ess came back, she would definitely break her legs for failing to protect Miss. Boohoo!
…
Long Yang led Lu Liangwei toward a shortcut instead of the main road and arrived at Plum Field Town at the foot of the mountain.
This small town benefited a lot from its proximity to Tianzhu Temple and was very lively, not deserted like other small towns. There were pilgrims and tourists everywhere, and wine shops crowded with people filled the streets.
Long Yang’s hand was very dry, and Lu Liangwei felt her palm getting sweaty after holding his all the way.
At this moment, seeing the people come and go on the street, she finally seized the opportunity to shake off his hand boldly.
When he looked over, she said matter-of-factly, “There are too many people around.”
