Revenge of the First Daughter - Chapter 562

Chapter 562 Temporary Crisis
After a night of light rain, Yun Xiao slept exceptionally comfortably. She slowly opened her eyes. Everywhere she touched her eyes was green, and her nose was faintly filled with the fragrance of earth. Within the fragrance of earth, Yun Xiao could smell the fragrance of magnolia flowers.

The corner of Yun Xiao’s mouth slowly outlined a faint smile. She stretched out her hand to touch it. Her tentacles were warm, and her delicate skin felt as if the palm of her hand was split open layer by layer. The smile at the corner of her mouth also became sweeter and sweeter.

Looking at the sky, it was already a little dusky. However, under the leaves that covered the sky, even though the weather was already clear, the place where it touched was somewhat dark.

Counting the time, it should be some time later. However, when she looked up and saw that Rong Jin was still asleep, Yun Xiao immediately withdrew her hand, deeply afraid of disturbing Rong Jin’s rest.

Thinking about the tiredness of the past few days, Rong Jin did not rest properly. Last night, she was afraid that she had stayed up late again. She was a little worried. It sounded quiet in the woods now. There was nothing unusual about it. It meant that the pursuers had yet to catch up. She heaved a sigh of relief. She did not want to wake Rong Jin up, but just wanted to lie in his arms.

Staring at his warm eyebrows, Yun Xiao stretched out her hand to draw on his cheeks. It was as if she was touching Rong Jin’s cheeks. The corner of her mouth revealed a faint smile.

At this moment, she felt very happy.

Yun Xiao took a deep breath of the faint scent of magnolia flowers belonging to the man. She could not bear to disturb him and wanted to withdraw her hand. However, she had only just retracted half of her hand when she was grabbed by a pair of large hands and pressed against a warm cheek. A gentle and gentle bass voice that was unique to men sounded in her ears, “Since you want to touch it, why should you retract it?”

With this sentence, Yun Xiao immediately knew that Rong Jin had already woken up, and even put all of his small movements in his eyes. An abnormal blush hit his cheek, and Yun Xiao immediately turned around and sat up. She said shyly, “I wonder how Zhou Jingyan and the others are doing. When will they catch up? Let’s quickly tidy up and hurry up.”

Rong Jin looked at Yun Xiao’s embarrassed expression and smiled faintly. Then, he said loudly, “Don’t worry, they won’t be able to catch up for a while.”

“How do you know?” Yun Xiao glared at Rong Jin discontentedly. She didn’t know what Rong Jin had done again. “In the future, remember, you have me, Nuo and Tongtong, as well as Ruo and Rong Xun. Don’t put yourself in danger.”

Rong Jin sat up and hugged Yun Xiao in his arms. He placed his chin on Yun Xiao’s shoulder and said softly, “Don’t worry, I have some sense.”

“Do you know how to hurt yourself?” Yun Xiao’s small hand drilled into Rong Jin’s clothes and directly touched the wound in front of him. This was the wound he suffered in the first month. Now, after so long, there was still a shallow flesh mark. Yun Xiao would look at it every night, and every time, she felt even more distressed.

This was an injury that Rong Jin had suffered in order to find herbs to treat her eye disease. She had always remembered it, and she still remembered it vividly.

Rong Jin’s body stiffened slightly, and then a faint warmth appeared in his eyes. “Don’t worry, it won’t happen in the future. However, if your hand is still on the spot, I can’t guarantee that I will do anything.”

A warm breath sprayed into her ears. It was numb and itchy. After receiving Rong Jin’s reminder, Yunxiao immediately reacted to what Rong Jin had said. She lowered her head and saw her small hand resting on Rong Jin’s chest. Her face turned slightly red. She immediately retracted her hand and glared at Rong Jin, warning him, “You … don’t move!”

Right at this moment, an inappropriate voice sounded. Yun Xiao’s face became even more embarrassed. She turned around and saw Rong Jin staring at her leisurely and stammered, “I… I’m hungry.”

Rong Jin let out a muffled laugh. It was rare to see Yun Xiao so embarrassed and interesting. However, when he felt that Yun Xiao’s expression really couldn’t collapse, he said softly, “Xiao Xiao, wait here for a while. I’ll go find something to eat.”

Only then did Yun Xiao avoid embarrassment. She immediately nodded her head like garlic. After seeing Rong Jin’s figure disappear, she heaved a sigh of relief.

It had just rained in the early morning, the air was exceptionally good. Yun Xiao took a few breaths in a good mood and automatically found some dry wood left from last night, piled it up and lit it, waiting for Rong Jin’s arrival.

However, before Rong Jin could come, Yun Xiao heard a strange sound coming from not far away. After listening carefully for a while, she could clearly hear the sound of horse hooves coming towards her.

In this dense forest, only Rong Jin and she had Zhou Jingyan and the people he led.

The sound of horse hooves was definitely not because Rong Jin had returned. It should be Zhou Jingyan and his men chasing after him.

Yun Xiao did not expect that Zhou Jingyan’s men would chase after him so quickly.

His expression changed slightly. Then, he quickly extinguished the fire that had just been ignited. Then, he quickly picked up all his belongings and walked towards the open space in front of him. However, after Yun Xiao walked once, she turned around and found a string of footprints left on the ground. Just like this, as long as anyone with good eyesight could clearly see which direction he had run to.

Gujing Wubo’s eyes lit up. A good idea immediately popped into his mind. Walking back in the footsteps he had just taken, After stepping on the footprints along the way, Thus, he stepped on footprints in more than a dozen directions, However, Yun Xiao was still somewhat dissatisfied. Hearing that Zhou Jingyan’s men would only be able to arrive here for a while, Yun Xiao immediately stamped on the footprints on the spot. In just a few breaths, footprints in all directions had already appeared on the ground. These footprints were messy and could not see the rules at all. Only then was Yun Xiao satisfied.

However, at this moment, Yun Xiao clearly heard a cry of alarm coming from not far away. “Your Highness, there seems to be traces of someone in front of you.”

Then, Zhou Jingyan’s voice rang out, “Hurry up and take a look! I want to capture him alive!”

“Yes,” the guard quickly replied, then quickly rode forward.

When Yun Xiao saw this, she couldn’t care less about other things. She looked around and saw the leaves on the ground around her footprints. She immediately ran over and carefully concealed her figure. Within a few breaths, Yun Xiao heard a clear sound of horse hooves coming from behind her.

Looking back, he saw guards riding horses to the front of the small house they had built, searching around for their whereabouts.

It was in this short period of time that Zhou Jingyan rode his horse and brought his men over. His pair of sharp eyes only took a moment to look at the footprints on the ground. He could recognize that the footprints belonged to a woman, but where did Rong Jin go?

“Your Highness, we have just checked. The Swallow King of West Vietnam and the four girls of the Yun Family did spend the night here last night, and the fire has just been extinguished. I believe they are not far from us for the time being.”

Zhou Jingyan glanced at the extinguished fire and narrowed his eyes. Then, he said loudly, “Chase after them immediately! Check out the footprints!”

As soon as Zhou Jingyan finished speaking, a soldier immediately ran out. However, not long after, he had already turned around and said with an embarrassed expression, “Your Highness, those footprints can’t be seen to which side.”

Zhou Jingyan scanned the entire forest with a pair of fierce eyes. His deep gaze was filled with a dense glint. His eyes narrowed dangerously as he said coldly, “Continue to chase after the entire forest. Find the two of them for me as well!”

“Yes!” The guard respectfully replied and turned to look in the direction where the footprints left.

…

Yun Xiao listened to the sound of horse hooves and footsteps getting closer and closer to her. It was as if they would catch up soon, and their expressions became even more embarrassed. However, it was obviously impossible to escape at this time. If she made any movements, she would definitely be caught by Zhou Jingyan’s men.

Just as he was secretly anxious, he suddenly heard the sound of horse hooves approaching from afar. Then, he heard Zhou Jingyan’s shout, “Someone, hurry up and chase after him!”

Hualala, all the guards turned their horses around in unison and chased after the horse from before.

Yun Xiao heaved a sigh of relief without the threat of some people, but she was even more worried at random. If Rong Jin was caught, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Yun Xiao revealed her head from behind the tree. Then, she saw Zhou Jingyan wearing a suit of armor and majestically sitting on the horse. Half of his handsome eyebrows were hidden behind the armor hat. He held the reins in one hand and the whip in the other, occasionally sweeping into the distance.

At the moment when Yun Xiao had just revealed her head, she suddenly saw a wisp of Zhou Jingyan’s sharp eyes moving towards her. She immediately retreated in fear, but her heart was beating non-stop.

She was a little scared. She didn’t know if Zhou Jingyan had noticed her just now. If Zhou Jingyan was coming towards her, Yun Xiao glanced at the little poison in her hand and revealed a bitter smile. She wasn’t even confident that she could give Zhou Jingyan the medicine. How could she show up in front of Zhou Jingyan?

However, Yun Xiao did not have time to think about it.

It was only because Zhou Jingyan had actually driven the horse towards him.

Hearing the sound of horse hooves stepping on the ground, Yun Xiao’s heart tightened. However, the sound of horse hooves became clearer and clearer. The sound of horse hooves rustling on the leaves was as if they were stepping on Yun Xiao’s heart.

Yun Xiao tried her best to shrink her body a little, but even so, as long as Zhou Jingyan walked around, she would definitely discover her tracks.

Yun Xiao glanced at the poison in her hand for the last time. Since she could not escape, she might as well give it a shot!

If he didn’t resist, he would still be caught. If he let go, he might still have a chance of escaping. All he needed to do was to stun Zhou Jingyan and snatch Zhou Jingyan’s horse. It wasn’t hopeless either.

Yun Xiao took a deep breath. Although she had already decided in her heart, she was still somewhat uneasy in her heart.
