Chapter 1429: Chapter 1367: Whispers

After a long separation and reunion, both were full of excitement. Even though it was late at night, they were wide awake, lying in bed talking.

"Why did you come so quickly, barging in so late at night? When did you arrive?" Wufu asked, looking at him.

"The envoy group is still coming slowly behind me. I came early, just arrived tonight, and the city gates were already closed."

"Then you?"

"I climbed over the wall!" Ah Jiu said proudly.

"Ha, Prince Jin really is impressive! Aren’t you afraid the night patrol soldiers would catch you thinking you were a Flying Thief?" Wufu poked his chest.

Ah Jiu held her finger and said, "I missed you. I couldn’t wait even a moment until morning, so I came."

Hearing this, Wufu felt as if she had drunk honey, so sweet, and playfully said, "Your mouth really is filled with honey, you’re so sweet-talking."

"I was more afraid that if I came too late, someone would steal Wufu away!" Ah Jiu feigned a grievance.

Wufu blinked. What did he mean by that?

"I heard that Master Gui is very attentive to you."

Um...

"They really report everything to you, huh, humph, ungrateful!" Wufu snorted lightly.

Ah Jiu laughed and said, "They’re my spies, dedicated to reporting on everything about you." Fearing she might be angry, he carefully asked, "Don’t be mad, I just wanted to make sure you’re alright, that’s why I had them report everything."

Wufu said, "If I were mad, would you still be lying here?"

"I knew you couldn’t bear to let me go!" Ah Jiu beamed, then asked, "What’s the matter with Master Gui? How did he find out your identity?"

Wufu said, "He found out when he was in the Cloud Realm..."

She briefly recounted the affair with Master Gui, and Ah Jiu listened, saying, "Wufu, you are mine."

"You need to ask my mother to give me to you for it to count!"

"I’ll go tomorrow morning to greet her and propose marriage," Ah Jiu immediately said.

Wufu laughed, "Alright, you’ve just come back, don’t startle her. She’s with child and wouldn’t withstand a fright."

"Okay, let’s take it slow." Ah Jiu asked again, "What’s the plan with the Wu Family?"

Wufu’s smile slightly restrained, and she explained her plans, along with the actions of the Wu Family people, including Madam Zhou’s decision.

"...I originally thought if she insisted on following Wu Lihong, I would just let her and send her in, then go to Beiyan to find you! I didn’t expect such a pleasant surprise." Speaking of Madam Zhou’s decision, Wufu laughed, "I also didn’t expect her to make such a decision."

"A mother will always toughen for her children, unwilling to see them suffer," Ah Jiu said. "Now that she’s willing to follow you, when you’re in Beiyan, she’ll naturally enjoy honor and glory because of you, and I’ll also be filial to her!"

Wufu responded with a hum.

"As for the Wu Family, if you dislike their presence, just settle it. Don’t overthink it, they aren’t worth it."

"I know, it’s just for fun. If they don’t provoke me, then fine, but if they recklessly do, they’ll face the consequences." Wufu said coldly.

Ah Jiu stroked her brow and said, "It’ll be better when we’re in Beiyan, with none of these troubling issues!"

Wufu gave him a sidelong glance, "Really? When we’re in Beiyan, I won’t have to compete with those who admire you?"

"Do you even need to compete? If it comes to that, just throw a punch! I’m yours!" Ah Jiu tapped her lips and said, "Don’t worry, my Royal Mother has already agreed."

Wufu felt a twinge of joy inside but said, "I’m not worried. If you can’t marry me, you just lack good fortune!"

"Yes, yes, yes, don’t worry, I’m sure to have great fortune."

The two laughed and joked again...
