Ruan Yu was clueless about what had happened, and nodded as she endured the pain in her shoulders.
Coincidentally, Xia Churan strode in.
She looked sorrowful, as if she was truly a sister who was worried about her sibling.
The moment Xia Chuxing noticed her, she picked up a teacup beside her and threw it at her.
Xia Churan didn’t expect that, and she was hit in the forehead.
Ruan Yu immediately shrieked, and the scene immediately turned chaotic.
Xia Churan pressed the wound on her head and stared at Xia Chuxing in confusion.
Xia Chuxing sneered. “Didn’t you say that you want to suffer on my behalf? It’s such a good opportunity. In that case, Sister, go ahead.”
Xia Churan immediately understood. She knew the truth.
She panicked but quickly calmed down. “Sister, Father won’t agree.”
Xia Chuxing felt like vomiting when she saw how pretentious she was.
Xia Chuxing stared at them with hatred in her eyes. She let out a cold laugh and threw everything she could.
She screamed, “Get out! All of you!”
Ruan Yu was also thrown out. She looked at Xia Churan with red eyes and asked, “What did you tell your sister?”
Xia Churan said sadly, “I just didn’t want her to be upset. Father won’t agree to my marriage. If she finds out that Father chose me out of the two of us, she will be even more upset.”
Hearing these words, Ruan Yu’s expression flickered, and she burst into tears as she hugged her.
Xia Churan, who had her face away from Ruan Yu, didn’t show any agony on her face.
Once the three days were up, Xia Chuxing was sent into the bridal carriage again.
This time, she didn’t cry or make a fuss. She even had a smile on her face that made one’s hair stand.
This farce finally came to an end.
Xia Muqing received the news and commented coldly, “This is just the beginning.”
Then she found Ye Qingxuan and said, “I’m leaving.”
Ye Qingxuan looked at her with a darkened expression. “Where are you going?”
Xia Muqing smiled and said, “This doesn’t concern you, Your Highness. I’m just your physician and I’m only treating your illness.”
These words made his expression sink.
Xia Muqing felt a little uneasy, but she had to make things clear.
Ye Qingxuan suddenly smiled and said, “Indeed, I’ve crossed the line just now.”
His attitude and reaction left Xia Muqing even more uneasy. She pondered about it carefully and she shouldn’t have said anything wrong.
She had originally planned to leave the next day. That night, Xia Muqing sat on the back of the black eagle and secretly left.
She had no idea that a figure in a wheelchair was watching her.
Xia Muqing didn’t bring much with her. Returning to the Sunset Mountains was equivalent to returning home.
She only brought Gungun and a few clothes along with her before setting off.
Flying in the sky at night really felt different. The stars in the night sky seemed to be right next to her.
The black eagle cried out softly and increased its speed.
Xia Muqing had to wrap her arms around its neck to stabilize herself.
With Xia Muqing closer, the black eagle became even more excited and flew faster and faster.
Xia Muqing couldn’t take it anymore. She urged it to slow down before it slowed down.
Despite the black eagle’s speed, it took them three days to reach the Sunset Mountains.
When they reached the vicinity, Xia Muqing asked the black eagle to return first. She would look for him after she entered the mountains.
The black eagle touched Xia Muqing’s forehead gently before flying away.
However, when they parted ways, things would have changed drastically.
Xia Muqing walked slowly along the main path. Before long, more and more people appeared.
It was a narrow path. After walking through it, one’s vision suddenly became clearer. There were people walking along the main street, and stalls were placed on both sides.
Xia Muqing didn’t have anything she wanted to buy. She made a beeline towards an inn she had stayed in previously.
She stopped in her tracks when she passed by a stall.
The jade pendant in her arms suddenly vibrated. She didn’t know if it was an illusion.
She reached into her bag and touched the jade. There was no movement.
