Chapter 260 – Fighting Among Themselves; The Gu’s Are Coming (11)
CHIRP!
The mystical crane responded. It was almost as if the intelligent crane could comprehend the words of its master.
“Xiao He, we are here at the country of Dafeng and heard about what was going on in Willows. Everything seemed to be related to this Cheng Xiao Xiao. Do you think we should go pay her a visit?”
……….
Xiao He couldn’t be bothered with a response. It just pretended that it didn’t hear him.
It didn’t matter to Mo Xuanzun whether Xiao He responded to him or not, he continued, “My original idea is to go seek out ‘Miss Mean’ first. But we’d need to address this Cheng Xiao Xiao issue sooner or later. Otherwise shi mei Gong would nag me when she found out I never paid Cheng Xiao Xiao a visit. In light of that, I should probably sacrifice a little of my time and go pay her a visit and ask about the vine. I will take off as soon as I get an answer from her and return to my search for ‘Miss Mean’.”
“Xiao He, let’s look around here for a little bit, then we will head toward Qing’an Province. We will continue to search for her on our way to meet Cheng Xiao Xiao. If I could locate ‘Miss Mean’ in Qing’An Province, I will take her with me to meet Cheng Xiao Xiao. Both shi mei Gone and Miss Jun’er said Cheng Xiao Xiao was quite an interesting character, I am sure ‘Miss Mean’ will find her amusing!”
“Xiao He, do you think you will like this Cheng Xiao Xiao? I heard she was a master beast tamer. Do you think you will be tamed by her? I am telling you now, even if she could tame you. You can’t fly anyone around on you unless it’s ‘Miss Mean’. Xiao He, I want you to be nicer to ‘Miss Mean’. If you aren’t nice to her, I will knock on your head!”

The mystical crane responded with a long, loud cry. If anyone could understand it, they’d know that it was shouting all sorts of stuff at its master!
Always getting distracted by the newest and shiniest toys!
A caravan of and luxurious horse-drawn carriage were chugging along slowly on the path leading toward Qing’an Province under the protection of over one hundred guards.
There were a lot of passengers Inside the largest horse-drawn carriage; merely three of them. It was Gu Gaoyi and his immediate family.
Gu Gaoyi, sitting crossed legged inside the carriage, looked on coldly as his wife dotingly feeding her son Gu Junxian with food and beverage, treating him as though he was still a child.
Anyone who didn’t know better would certainly think that Gu Junxian was a paraplegic, needed to be served hands and feet.
Yan Qingqing have noticed that her husband had looked displeased since the beginning of their journey. She was so angry that her eyes widened and she complained querulously, “Ye, whatever do you want mean by that? Are you mad at us or something? You looked so disgruntled all the time!”
“HRM!” Hrmped Gu Gaoyi in a dissatisfying manner, refusing to dignify that with a response.
Ever since Gu Junxian had taken a 3-month long vacation from his school, he went home immediate and recounted to his parents everything that had happened at the Cheng’s. How terrible the Cheng’s had treated him, how cunning Cheng Xiao Xiao was. Long story short, there was not one good soul in the entire Cheng’s!
What he wanted is to head over to the Cheng’s immediately to call off the engagement. He couldn’t and wouldn’t let it happen; he’d rather die than to marry that woman. If his family would not call it off, he’d rather die a bachelor!
Under their son’s adamant request, Gu Gaoyi and Yan Qinging had no choice but to give up their sliver of hope and agreed to his demand. He had further demanded that they head over to Willows immediately. He wanted to call off the engagement during the auction at the Cheng’s. He wanted the entire world to know that he was the one who called off the engagement and Cheng Xiao Xiao was dumped. He wanted her to be shamed in front of everyone, to avenge for how she had treated him!
Thinking about the shame that he was about to brought onto the Cheng’s, Gu Junxian was immediately in a good mood. He was happy, even eager to arrive at the Cheng’s. He could already see it in his head. Ideally, he’d see Cheng Xiao Xiao regretted about her behavior. If she regretted….
Young master Gu’s imagination had gone wild, and he started all sorts of fantasies about his wildest dreams coming true!
