Revenge of the First Daughter - Chapter 187

Chapter 187 You’re Late
After a cup of tea, a wisp of silver flashed, and Yun Xiao’s straightened body finally loosened slightly.

However, after maintaining a long posture for a long time, Yun Xiao felt her hands and feet stiffen. Her numbness brought a bit of pain, causing her brows to frown tightly.

After putting his raised right hand back into the tub for a long time, the uncomfortable feeling gradually subsided.

Only then did she move, her body moved, and she straightened her body again.

Yun Xiao only felt the little snake retracted from her neck to her wrist and swam again. The little snake swam faster and faster, and Yun Xiao seemed to be able to feel her anxiety.

Frowning, Yun Xiao did not dare to move again. She only watched as the cloth that was wet by the water tightly clung to her arm stirred up and down.

Suddenly, his arm hurt. Yun Xiao subconsciously snorted and discovered that the little snake had already swam to his wrist recently. He bit on his wrist and broke out.

Because of this, Yun Xiao finally saw the person who caused this.

A fair head appeared on her livid jade-like wrist. She looked around for a while before finally looking at Yun Xiao and swallowing Snake Xinzi, as if she was showing off her might to Yun Xiao.

Yun Xiao knitted her brows tightly, suppressing her restless hands, wanting to lift Snake up and beat her up.

However, she hadn’t expected that before she took action, Snake had already emerged from her wrist. She was entrenched on her wrist, her head and tail connected, tightly clinging to her skin with traces of nostalgia.

The transparent snake’s body was like a good warm jade, allowing Yun Xiao to clearly see that a black color was slowly flowing within the snake’s body.

Just as Yun Xiao was about to reach out and lift the snake’s body, she did not expect that the snake tail would gently sweep across her palm, causing a ripple.

The hand that was about to grab Snake was frozen in place, and Snake had once again seated herself between her wrists, like a high-grade sheep fat jade bracelet.

Yun Xiao boldly pointed her finger at the snake’s body. It was soft and cold, very comfortable, but the little snake sitting between her wrists did not move at all.

Yun Xiao’s heart trembled slightly. Even though this little snake looked very cute and did not pose any threat, it was still a snake! And a snake with no name.

Yun Xiao said that she felt a bit bad about letting the snake make her bracelet.

Yun Xiao waved her wrist twice, wanting to shake off Snake. She did not think that Snake did not have the intention to relax. Instead, she tightened her body tightly, and the snake’s body clung to Yun Xiao tightly.

Yun Xiao tried a few more times, but it was still the same. On the contrary, there was a burst of pain from the stirrup on her wrist.

The corner of Yun Xiao’s mouth twitched and she coughed lightly before she said, “Are you pestering me?”

The snake remained motionless.

Yun Xiao coughed softly and tried several methods again. She was still wrapped tightly around her wrist as a bracelet.

He had no choice but to give up.

Yun Xiao quickly washed her body and cleaned the black color on her body, but she could still feel the smell of medicine on her body.

Yun Xiao frowned. She wanted to ask Rong Jin to bring her a bucket of water. Before she could say anything, she heard a pleasant voice, “Send some more bath soup.”

Yun Xiao’s face was slightly red and her expression was extremely serious. She simply hid at the side and did not leave.

After the servant delivered water and washed her body again, Yun Xiao picked up the clothes that had been prepared beside her and put them on her body.

As they walked out, they saw Rong Jin and Rong Xun still sitting on both sides of the chessboard playing chess. The two of them were black and white, forming a sharp contrast. Under the flickering candlelight, they pulled their figures very long, contradictory colors, but they did not lose harmony.

She walked forward step by step and took a look at the two of them. The intertwined pieces occupied half of the chessboard. Compared to playing chess, Yun Xiao was most interested in the food on the table.

Neither of them had the mood to know themselves. Thinking back to the scene in the screen, Yun Xiao was embarrassed to speak first. It was only proper for her to give a tooth sacrifice to her Five Viscera Temple first.

When the chess game was over and the two wanted to eat, they discovered that the dishes on the table had been swept clean.

Yun Xiao said without changing her expression, “I saw that you guys were playing chess too seriously, so I didn’t disturb you guys. You guys eat first. Have you eaten yet?” These dishes were always warm with charcoal, so when Yun Xiao ate, the dishes were still warm. However, after eating these dishes, she was only 70% full.

“Not yet,” Rong Jin replied as he tidied up the chessboard. His expression was gentle and his voice was calm, making it hard to guess what he was thinking.

The corner of Yun Xiao’s mouth twitched slightly and she shouted to the outside, “Have some more food.”

Rong Xun sneered. His mood wasn’t worried. Today, he had lost two matches with Rong Jin without exception, which made him a little discouraged.

Looking at the woman in front of him, the corner of his mouth twitched when he saw that she wasn’t embarrassed at all. “You’re quite good at making decisions.”

Yun Xiao put down the chopsticks in her hand and whispered, “Thank you for the compliment.” Previously, Yun Xiao felt that the man in front of her was very familiar, but she couldn’t remember when she had seen him, and when she heard him speak again, this familiar feeling became more and more intense.

The door was opened. The servant came in with the food box and placed the stacks of dishes on the table. After the servant left, Yun Xiao impolitely picked up the chopsticks and picked up the dishes again.

However, when Yun Xiao’s chopsticks were about to touch the dish, the dish that Yun Xiao had targeted was already eaten by Rong Xun.

No matter how good Yun Xiao’s temper was, she couldn’t help but feel somewhat uneasy at this moment, “You go against me everywhere!” The affirmative tone was one of accusation.

Even if Yun Xiao knew that the man in front of her was the frightening Crown Prince Rong Xun of Xi Yue, she could not get up the slightest bit of respect and reverence because she always felt that the man in front of her was too familiar.

Not only that, it also meant that Rong Xun was the Crown Prince of Xi Yue, not from the Eastern Jin Dynasty. She was in a cooperative relationship with the First Prince of Xi Yue, Rong Jin, not a subordinate relationship.

“So what? Did you just eat so much? Still eat? Aren’t you worried that you’ll die?” Rong Xun snatched food from Yun Xiao’s hands again and gracefully placed it in his mouth to chew.

When Yun Xiao saw this, her eyes were scarlet red and she directly brought a plate of dishes to her. “You seem to have eaten quite a bit. You should worry about yourself first, then you should worry about me.” She had been hungry since the morning until now and endured the emptiness in her stomach to serve Zhou Jingyan. Now that she saw the food, her excited mood became very excited.

With this experience, Yun Xiao quickly finished her meal and did not look at Rong Xun’s expression. After she finished her meal, she said, “Can you lend me a carriage? I want to go back to the manor.” She did not forget that the Emperor was summoning her tomorrow.

Moreover, if the woman did not return overnight, her reputation would be ruined.

“Someone will send you back.” Rong Jin’s voice was gentle and motionless as he continued to eat his late dinner.

Yun Xiao thanked him and walked out. However, just as she walked out of the room, she saw plum blossoms in the courtyard rushing to bloom. The crescent moon was slanting to the west, and pure white moonlight poured down, leaving a mark that belonged to her on the ground.

Although the scenery was beautiful, what surprised Yunxiao was that Rong Ruo and Brother Han were actually here!

Brother Han and Rong Ruo also saw Yun Xiao, and their hearts that had been holding onto her fell down. Rong Ruo wanted to call her mother, but he was pointed at an acupoint, and not a single note could be heard.

On the contrary, Brother Han’s face was filled with joy as he shouted, “Fourth sister, I’m here, quickly save me!” The feeling of meeting a relative was the most exciting when he was no longer in danger.

Although he was not in danger now, he had originally come to look for Yun Xiao, and he couldn’t help but be overjoyed when he saw her.

Yun Xiao was also a little excited, but she concealed it very well, so she wouldn’t let anyone discover it easily. After getting excited, Yun Xiao realized that when Er Xiao saw her, she actually didn’t move at all. It was really abnormal, “What happened to you guys?”

Brother Han curled his lips and looked at the man sitting on the other side of the porch.

Yun Xiao was stunned. She turned around and saw a man wearing a light green robe under the moonlight. If it weren’t for Brother Han’s reminder, she wouldn’t have noticed that there was someone else here.

When Yun Xiao saw his face clearly, she was secretly shocked. This person’s face was too familiar. When she remembered that he deliberately pretended not to recognize her in the imperial palace, she felt somewhat annoyed, “Jiang Qing!”

Jiang Qing looked sideways and looked at the woman who came out of her master’s room again. She calmly nodded her head.

Yun Xiao was stunned. The information she saw in his eyes was clearly that he was talking about who he was. “You don’t recognize me?”

Jiang Qingji frowned invisibly, “You are the fourth young lady of the Yun Clan.”

“You helped them solve the acupoints,” Yun Xiao pointed at Rong Ruo and Brother Han. Since she recognized him, it meant that he still recognized Jiang Qing a few days ago.

Jiang Qing glanced at the room and finally solved the acupoints for Rong Ruo and Brother Han. His master had instructed him not to disturb the treatment of Yun Clan’s fourth young miss. Since Yun Clan’s fourth young miss had already walked out unharmed, that meant that her body was fine.

Rong Ruo and Brother Han immediately ran over to protect Yun Xiao’s body, not letting go.

“Fourth sister, where have you been?”

“Mother, where have you been?”

…

Yun Xiao finally comforted Er Xiao and noticed that something was wrong again. If it was normal, Jiang Qing might have already started to ridicule her. However, she did not expect that nothing would happen to Jiang Qing today.

Rong Ruo looked at the sky and held Yun Xiao’s hand. “Mother, are you going back to the Yun Family? Will Uncle Jiang and I send you off?”

Yun Xiao frowned slightly. Normally, she had never seen Rong Ruo call Jiang Qing and Uncle Jiang whom she knew. But now, he called them like this. He stared at Jiang Qing with his eyes wide open.

Suddenly, she pushed Er Xiao away and ran into the room in a hurry. She finally realized that something was wrong.

He hastily pushed open the door and shouted out the doubts in his heart, “You are Jiang Qing!” If Rong Xun was the Jiang Qing he knew, then everything could be explained clearly.

The door was pushed open with a bang. Yun Xiao looked in and the corner of her mouth twitched slightly. It was only because there was only a man in a moonlight white robe reading under the lamp, but the man wearing the ebony ghost mask had disappeared.

The white-robed man looked up at Yun Xiao, his handsome expression carrying traces of gentleness. He glanced at the window and opened his thin lips slightly, “You’re late.”
