up through the ranks of local gentry, magistrates, and prefects to reach his current position”>"You're right as always, little one. I was careless. I'll have someone investigate this thoroughly!" Ye W..."Forgot to tell you, this young master hates it most when people call me a man or woman, neither!" Wu Yue Gongzi finished speaking, his eyes hardened, and with a sudden force in his hand, there was only a cracking sound. The flower picker didn't even have time to let out a groan before his neck was twisted off!
Xiao Yuge glanced at the flower thief, shook her head, and clicked her tongue twice: "I really can't tell, Young Master Wuyue is really ruthless!" She could just imagine it, anyone who could be favored by Leiting Pavilion couldn't possibly be kind.
The Moonless Master wiped his hands with a handkerchief, seeming to be disgusted by the dirt on them: “If I hadn’t come, he would have ended up in that girl's hands and died even worse!” Think about it, the woman holding the lock-bone knife in her hand—that flower thief would not even have a whole corpse left if she got her hands on him.
"Then he should be grateful to you." Xiao Yuge said casually as she put away the collarbone knife: "By the way, Lord Wuyue, why are you here" She didn't believe in coincidences.
"I was just strolling aimlessly down the street when I happened to see you being harassed by three thugs. I thought about stepping in and giving them a lesson, but then, this unfortunate pickpocket bumped into me and followed me all the way here."
"I see," Regardless of whether he was telling the truth or not, Xiao Yuge didn't want to delve deeper. After all, what he did had nothing to do with her.
"On the Lantern Festival, the moon is full and people are reunited. It's a time for romance under the blossoms and moonlight. Yet, Miss Xiao isn't with her flower protector, Prince Wang. It seems the rumors are true." Wuyue Gongzi walked towards Xiao Yuge.
"What rumors" Xiao Yu Ge frowned slightly. She and Qian Ting Xuan had just 'quarreled' this morning, could he have found out
"This morning, someone spread rumors that Miss Xiao and the Rogue King had a falling out. I was puzzled because the Rogue King always protected Miss Xiao so much, how could he let go Turns out it's true."
"Your ears are quite long." Xiao Yuge didn't deny it. "This is between me and him, nothing to do with Young Master Wuyue, right"
Of course it concerns me. That night at Qingfeng Pavilion when we parted, Wuyue has been thinking of the young lady ever since. Before this, she was worried about your relationship with the prince, so she never dared to overstep. Now that you have parted ways with the prince, does that mean Wuyue has another chance
Xiao Yu Ge softly hummed a tune: "I advise you to give up this idea as soon as possible, it's for your own good." If Qian Ting Xuan found out, he would probably cause some kind of trouble.
"Besides lacking a distinguished status, Wu Yue believed that he was no worse than that carefree king in other aspects. Miss truly is so heartless, unwilling to give Wu Yue a chance, hmm" Wu Yue approached her, his long legs carrying him forward until he trapped her against the wall.
"Master Wuyue, which part of me do you like I can change it!" Xiao Yuge raised her eyes, not panicking at all. Even though he was highly skilled in martial arts, she wasn't afraid. If he dared to act recklessly, she would dare to castrate him!
“I like you being alive.” Wuyue Gongzi leaned closer to her, gazing wantonly at this face that was beautiful to the point of breathlessness under the moonlight. It turned out that there were people who could be so stunningly beautiful, making his heart skip a beat. He had grown up in the midst of dust and wind since childhood, seeing all sorts of beauties, but he had never seen someone who could switch between innocence and cunning so effortlessly like her.
“I like living, too.” Xiao Yuge moved her hand away from his. “If your hands don’t want to be with me anymore, then go ahead and leave.”
Wu Yue stared at her for a long time, but ultimately retracted his hand and took a step back, releasing her. "Miss Xiao, is that Prince Xiaoyao really that good Worth you guarding your chastity for him"
"Master Wuyue, don't assume everyone thinks like you. It's none of outsiders' business how Qian Tingxuan and I are. I advise you to stay out of my sight in the future, or you'll regret it."
"It's quite a coincidence, isn't it" The Moonless Master raised an eyebrow. "I don't have many merits, but I do enjoy dealing with trouble."
Xiao Yu Ge brushed the dust off her body and patted her hands. "Gongzi Wuyue, I know you are not a frivolous person. No matter what your purpose is for approaching me, let me tell you this: Don't try to use me to achieve some goal, or else, don't blame me for being ruthless!" After speaking, she turned and left.
Gazing at the departing figure bathed in moonlight, Wuyue Gongzi's obsequious smile from before had vanished: "I wonder if knowing someone like you is a blessing or a curse" He let out a sigh and turned to melt into the night.
When Qing Luo found the veil, she went back and forth looking for her young mistress. However, after searching for a long time, she couldn't find her mistress. Moreover, there were rumors about flower thieves recently, so she panicked: "Mistress! Mistress!" Although she knew her mistress had martial arts skills, in her eyes, her mistress was still a weak woman, and she wouldn't be a match for the thief.
"Qing Luo!"
Thousands Thoughts also learned about Xiao Yuge and the little prince's falling out from Fang Minrou. Thinking that this was a good opportunity to seek forgiveness from Ge'er, she went to Ruyifang to find Ge'er. However, Feng Yanniang told him that Ge'er and Qingluo had gone shopping at the market, so he finally found them.
But after searching all around, they still couldn't see Ge’er and the others. Just as they were feeling discouraged, they heard Qingluo’s voice!
"Prince!" At the sight of Qian Sichin, Qing Luo felt like she had seen a savior.
"Qing Luo, where's Ge'er" Qian Si Chen looked around frantically, but couldn't find Xiao Yu Ge's figure. He couldn't help but get worried.
"Your Highness, please help me find Miss for me. Just now, I got separated from Miss and I don't know where she is now. It's killing me!" Qing Luo said while looking around.
"Song'er!" Qian Si Chen immediately became flustered.
"I heard there have been flower thieves recently, Miss, you must be careful not to run into them." Qing Luo felt very guilty: "It's all my fault, I didn't stay by the Miss' side properly..."
"Song! Song!" Qian Si Chen's heart pounded with worry as she frantically searched for the familiar figure.
But they searched from street to street's end, yet Xiao Yu Ge was nowhere to be seen.
"Master, wouldn't it be that Miss Xiao didn't see Qingluo and went back to Ruyifang first" Ling Tian beside him knew that whenever Master encountered anything related to Miss Xiao, he would definitely lose his composure.
Qian Si Chen thought about it, and then instructed Ling Tian: "You send Qing Luo back, and see if Ge'er has returned."
"Yes!"
After Qing Luo left, Qian Si Chen was still looking for Xiao Yu Ge at every street corner. His mind kept replaying the scene of Xiao Yu Ge encountering the flower thief, which made him even more distraught. If anyone dared to hurt her, he would definitely grind them to dust!
"Song! Song!" He ignored the strange looks from the crowd around him. At this moment, all he wanted was to find her. If she could appear before him, even if everyone thought he was a weirdo, so what
"Thousand thoughts, dust"Seeing Xiao Yu Ge was about to leave, Mu Huan subconsciously called out to her.Xiao Yuge sang and glanced back at her with a smile, secretly squinting her eyebrows: "Princess, I have something to do,...
