The Cold King and His Spoilt Wife: His Genius Consort Is Breathtaking Novel - Chapter 92
Chapter 92: Escaping the Illusion
The boy’s cracked, injured lips curled up slightly as he asked, “Why did she do that?”
He had met other parents who were very good to their children, but why did she have to treat him like this?
Xia Muqing didn’t know how to answer and could only say, “This isn’t your fault. Not all parents in this world are qualified.”
The boy’s eyes flickered before turning silent. “Sister, I’m sorry. I’ve implicated you.”
Xia Muqing shook her head.
The next day when someone came to deliver food, Xia Muqing knocked them unconscious. She was so tired that her hands were shaking.
She asked the boy, “Can you climb over the wall?”
Xia Muqing had shown him the wall beside the pile of straw and he nodded.
Xia Muqing changed into the servant’s clothes, opened the door and walked out.
She shouted, “Quick, catch them! They escaped and ran in that direction.”
She randomly pointed in a direction, and sure enough, everyone fell for it and ran in that direction.
She took the opportunity to open the door and tell the boy to meet her outside the residence.
The boy nodded solemnly.
Xia Muqing lowered her head and walked towards the door. She bumped into Old Master Wang coincidentally, with the boy’s mother.
She could only stand and bow.
Old Master Wang looked at Xia Muqing’s beautiful figure and lust welled up in his heart. “Why didn’t I realize that there was such a pretty girl among the servants? Raise your head and let me take a look.”
The woman beside him suddenly said, “Old Master, you promised to accompany me today. Why are you still looking at other women? I won’t accept it.”
Old Master Wang was seduced by her coquettish tone and he coaxed her gently.
The two of them walked away.
Xia Muqing heaved a sigh of relief and strode out quickly.
She rushed to the huge tree outside the residence and met up with the boy. Since there was nowhere to go, Xia Muqing decided to bring him to the well in the west.
They hadn’t gone far when they heard sounds of pursuit. It seemed that Old Master Wang’s men had already discovered that they had fled.
The two of them kept changing their hiding spots. Just as they were about to reach the well in the west, they were surrounded by a group of people.
Old Master Wang walked out from behind and smiled coldly, “Eternal Stone Village is my territory. Where do you want to escape to?”
His lustful gaze landed on Xia Muqing as he said, “You’d better be obedient and come back with me to be my eighteenth concubine.”
Xia Muqing replied coldly, “That’s impossible.”
She held the boy’s hand and analyzed the situation as she thought of ways to escape.
Old Master Wang lost his patience. He got someone to grab them and said, “Since both of you can’t wait, I’ll pamper both of you tonight.”
Xia Muqing retreated slowly with the boy. If they were caught this time, it would be difficult for them to escape.
The boy blocked her way and said, “I’ll go back with you. Let my sister go.”
Old Master Wang chuckled. “I want the two of you.”
The boy’s face turned pale and he picked up a tree branch from the ground to protect Xia Muqing. He refused to budge.
The sound of chickens screeching and dogs barking suddenly entered Xia Muqing’s ears. Her eyes lit up and she tried to say, “Little chickens and dogs, help me stop them.”
Her words made everyone freeze. Was this good-looking woman an idiot?
The next second, they were even more dumbfounded.
A group of chickens and dogs pounced on their faces, scaring them until they retreated.
Xia Muqing ran towards the well with the boy. The boy tripped and fell, landing heavily on the ground.
Xia Muqing quickly turned around and hugged him. She asked, “Are you okay?”
The boy shook his head.
The two of them continued running, but the expression of the boy behind them had changed silently.
When the two of them were still a distance away from the well, Old Master Wang had also gotten rid of the animals. When he rushed over, he looked livid.
