<h4>Chapter 306: A Smooth Stone is More Comfortable</h4>


    When they got back to the carriage, the hidden guard asked Ning Shu, “Where are we going now?”


    “Let me think.” Ning Shu didn’t know where that schr was either.


    In the storyline, Qi Sheng had sent away Mu Yanmeng, who was practically on herst breath at that point. However, he hadn’t expected that, right after he sent Mu Yanmeng away, Li Yufei sent out assassins to kill her.


    Mu Yanmeng slipped when escaping and fell off a cliff, but a schr found her and saved her, then brought her back to his house.


    Ning Shu had no idea where that tiny remote vige was. Could it be that she had to take a leap off a cliff?


    “Miss, where do you want to go?” asked the hidden guard again.


    How would I frickin’ know? Ning Shu then said, “Go straight along this road. When there’s a split in the road, take the left, then continue taking lefts. If we encounter a vige, enter it.”


    Hidden Guard: …


    So what if this was being headstrong? No matter what, the male and female leads were bound to meet.


    Yue Lan asked worriedly, “Miss, what if we get lost?”


    “It’s fine. There will definitely be a twinkling existence to guide your miss forward,” said Ning Shu with her chin lifted.


    Yue Lan shook her head speechlessly. “This servant can’t understand.”


    Ning Shu suddenly recalled something and asked the hidden guard, “Do you have paper on you?”


    “What does Miss need paper for?” asked Yue Lan.


    “I’m used to using paper rather than leaves,” replied Ning Shu.


    Yue Lan’s eyes filled with tears again and she said mournfully, “Miss has always used paper in the past, but now you’ve fallen to such levels. If the lord knew, his heart would definitely ache for you. Miss, using leaves is ufortable. It’s much morefortable to use a smooth stone.”


    Ning Shu covered her face. She was just borrowing some paper, yet it resulted in such a dirty discussion.


    She felt like she was about to go crazy.


    As they chatted, they slowly started to get drowsy so they napped while leaning against each other. The clip-clops of the horse hooves were very rhythmic and the forest was quite quiet at night. The silence was only interrupted from time to time by some strange bird cries.


    “Ding! Ding-ding! Ding-ding-ding! Li Yufei: trauma points +100. Qi Sheng: trauma points +100.” 2333’s voice appeared in Ning Shu’s head.


    Ning Shu stretchedzily, then smiled. The fact that Li Yufei had gotten 100 trauma points probably meant that her skin was ruined. As for how Qi Sheng ended up getting so much trauma points, she had no idea.


    He had probably been disfigured as well. Tsk tsk~


    Actually, Qi Sheng’s trauma points had been due to the fact that he woke up the next day and discovered that the maid called Xiao Hong was gone. He searched the entire Qi Residence but wasn’t able to find her and he couldn’t shake off this feeling of loss. This feeling had nothing to do with love. It was a vexing frustration as if he had allowed a hazy pearl slip out of his hands.


    Qi Sheng was pretty sure that this Xiao Hong was Mu Yanmeng since she had suddenly ran off. He was furious that he had been tricked by her and went to ask Li Yufei for her. However, Li Yufei was busy trying to save her own skin. The wounds left by the whip were inmed and swollen, so she didn’t have the mind to care about something like Xiao Hong.


    In addition, she also hated Xiao Hong. Xiao Hong was the one that had prepared those tools. So the fact that Xiao Hong suddenly ran off and the whip ended up having barbs and extra seasoning made it obvious that Xiao Hong was the one that did it.


    Qi Sheng was furious, but he also couldn’t tell Li Yufei directly that Xiao Hong was Mu Yanmeng. Qi Sheng still couldn’t bear to part with Li Yufei at this point, especially since they discovered that they had a shared hobby.


    However, he couldn’t stop thinking about Mu Yanmeng. The image of Mu Yanmeng’s fair and wless skin blooming with blood flowers under his whip surfaced in his mind. Just this casual thought caused his body to tremble and an expression of ecstasy appeared on his face.


    He was getting excited, so he pulled Li Yufei off the bed and put a dog cor around her neck. “Come on, give a bark.”


    Li Yufei’s injuries still hadn’t healed and they would burn with stinging pain just from the friction of clothing. However, when she saw Qi Sheng’s look of dark desire, her body started heating up and trembling from excitement as well.
