Chapter 7: Let’s Find a Nest First
Chu Tianbao didn’t answer Bai Wutong and cried, “Wife, it hurts.”
Bai Wutong suddenly lowered her head and saw that her other hand was pressing against Chu Tianbao’s injured chest.
She could not be bothered to reprimand him. She quickly sat up and pulled open his collar.
Chu Tianbao’s firm chest muscles were exposed under the dark moonlight.
Bai Wutong pressed down with her hand, and Chu Tianbao shouted aggrievedly, “It hurts ~”
Bai Wutong looked speechless. “What are you shouting for? The wound isn’t open. Just in time, it’ll be dawn soon. After I change your dressing, we’ll be on our way.”
“Okay, Mother.”
“Wife,” Bai Wutong corrected him.
“Alright, wife.”
Chu Tianbao blinked obediently. Bright tears were still hanging on his curly eyelashes.
Bai Wutong looked at him and subconsciously changed the dressing much more gently. Her exquisite eyebrows appeared in his eyes, and her expression was abnormally gentle.
Chu Tianbao hissed from time to time, his hands gripping Bai Wutong’s clothes tightly.
When Bai Wutong began to wrap the bandage, he finally relaxed and asked, “Wife, where are we going?”
Bai Wutong glanced up at him. “Do you remember where your home is?”
Chu Tianbao shook his head. “My wife’s home is wherever my home is.”
Bai Wutong’s hands paused. After a while, she wrapped his clothes for him and said unhurriedly, “Alright, let’s find a nest first.”
“Sure.” Chu Tianbao smiled foolishly.
Bai Wutong stared at his harmless face and rubbed the space between his eyebrows. She seemed to have forgotten something.
What could it be…?
Bai Wutong and Chu Tianbao continued towards the next city.
She had asked around before. It would take at least half a month to reach Beiyun City by carriage. If she relied on her feet, she would have to walk for at least a month.
Crossing the mountains would probably take even longer.
Still, there were advantages to passing through the woods.
There was a pheasant in the distance. Chu Tianbao picked up a stone and threw it out casually. With a whoosh, the pheasant that had just flown up fell to the ground.
Bai Wutong said, “Go and pick it up.”
Due to the drought in the Yan Kingdom, there was almost no harvest. The prey in the forest were either frightened away or captured and eaten by the refugees.
They had been walking for so long, but they had only caught prey a few times.
Chu Tianbao went to pick up the pheasant. Bai Wutong took out a very small pot from her bag. She planned to cook some white porridge and roast the pheasant.
Chu Tianbao had just picked up the pheasant when a girl walked out of the bushes beside him.
She was about 15 or 16 years old. Her body was dry and her face was pretty.
She kept staring at the pheasant in Chu Tianbao’s hand and swallowed her saliva. She walked up to Chu Tianbao and said sweetly, “Big Brother~”
Chu Tianbao glanced at her sideways. His gaze pierced through the men and women behind the bushes and coldly passed Li Miaoyu, who was blocking his way.
Li Miaoyu was ignored. Li Dali, who was in the bushes, gave her a fierce look. She gritted her teeth again and chased after him. “Brother, I’m going to starve to death. Save me~”
As soon as she finished speaking, she saw the opportunity and fell into Chu Tianbao’s arms sickly.
Chu Tianbao frowned and dodged. Li Miaoyu fell to the ground and fell.
Li Miaoyu was the most beautiful girl in the village. All the men she wanted to seduce took the bait.
Not only was this dark-skinned man ugly, but he was also so ignorant.
It was infuriating.
Li Miaoyu got up hatefully. Her eyes were red as she shouted miserably at Chu Tianbao, “Big Brother, I beg you. I was the one who discovered this prey first.”
She refused to believe he’d put up with that.
However, not only did Chu Tianbao not turn around, but he even quickened his pace.
Li Dali rushed out of the bushes and shouted at Li Miaoyu, “Useless thing! If you don’t get a pheasant, I’ll sell you for food tomorrow.”
Li Miaoyu’s eyes were red and tears welled up in her eyes. She said weakly, “Brother, don’t sell me. I’ll go again now.” However, she had made up her mind. If Chu Tianbao was willing to let her eat the pheasant, she would run away with him. It would be better than being sold by them for food.
Li Miaoyu chased after him. When she turned a corner, she saw Chu Tianbao handing the pheasant to a young girl.
Other than being a little fatter than her and with a pockmarked face, she was nowhere near as good-looking as her.
She walked up to them in an imposing manner and said to Chu Tianbao righteously, “Brother, give me the pheasant as a betrothal gift. I’ll marry you.”
In the past, she did not even marry the other party when he offered two taels of silver as a betrothal gift.
If not for the fact that he was skilled and there was plain porridge cooking in a small pot on the ground, which meant that there was still food in the bag, she would not have allowed herself to stoop this low.
Bai Wutong sized up Li Miaoyu with interest. She looked gentle, but there was no warmth in her.
Chu Tianbao didn’t listen to Li Miaoyu at all. He stared at the pheasant in Bai Wutong’s hand and said softly, “Wife, I’m hungry.”
Bai Wutong said nothing, so Chu Tianbao tugged at her sleeve.
She wanted Bai Wutong to take out a piece of candy from her bag to fill his stomach as usual.
Out of habit, Bai Wutong pulled back her wrinkled sleeve. “Bear with it. The porridge will be ready soon.”
“Okay, wife.” Chu Tianbao looked obedient.
Chu Tianbao’s tone was clearly that of a fool. Disdain flashed across Li Miaoyu’s eyes. Thinking that a fool was easy to manipulate, she said anxiously, “If you marry me as your wife, I can also cook for you. I can even steam eggs and roast dumplings. As long as you like it, I can cook for you every day.” She had even planned the future so quickly that she didn’t care about Bai Wutong at all.
In her opinion, as long as Chu Tianbao was willing to marry her, Bai Wutong would definitely be his concubine.
She was so good-looking and willing to marry a fool, so how could Chu Tianbao turn her down.
Bai Wutong’s eyes darkened. She wanted Chu Tianbao to marry her, yet she also looked disdainful. She really didn’t know where she got her thick-skinned face from.
“Go away!”
Li Miaoyu widened her eyes in shock for a moment before shouting back in exasperation, “I’m talking to him, why are you interrupting!”
As soon as she finished speaking, Chu Tianbao seemed to have transformed into a different person. He raised his dagger and was as ferocious as a beast ready to attack.
Li Miaoyu panicked. She didn’t expect Chu Tianbao to care so much about Bai Wutong. She was so hungry that she couldn’t take it lying down. She rolled her eyes and started accusing Chu Tianbao.
“He took advantage of me just now. I’m a virgin. Either marry me or compensate me with the pheasant and this pot of rice! Otherwise, I’ll sue you to the authorities!”
Bai Wutong sneered. “Don’t you know who’s taking advantage of whom?”
She had seen it clearly just now.
Li Miaoyu’s face turned red. Thinking of the consequences of not obtaining the pheasant and being sold by Li Dali, she simply sat on the ground and said shamelessly, “If you don’t give me the pheasant and porridge, I’ll bang my head against the wall and die here. Anyway, I’ve already lost my innocence. There’s no point in living anymore. My parents will definitely seek justice for me!”
Bai Wutong couldn’t be bothered to waste her breath on her. She neatly pulled out the axe from her waist. With a whoosh, the sharp axe swung out with lightning speed and was placed on Li Miaoyu’s neck in the blink of an eye.
“Anyway, your innocence is gone. Why don’t I grant you your wish so that you can complain to Hades?”
