Chapter 1334: Chapter 1334: Follow (6)

“Cross-dressing?” Mieko’s eyes widened, “Haha, I always felt that kid was shady, and now it turns out she’s a woman…” As she spoke, she slammed her palm on the table, and the table instantly shattered into pieces.

Back at Wanren Villa, she and Little Quan Jie had been bitten by poisonous snakes; she lost an arm and a leg, and Little Quan Jie lost an arm. Then, they were abandoned by the organization. They were supposed to commit suicide, but survival clung on out of a desire for revenge, specifically to find and take revenge on Gu Yang. Unfortunately, with few people left beneath them, they never found him, but unexpectedly, they spotted him in Yangzhou.

“Can you not get so agitated?” Little Quan Jie gave Mieko a sidelong glance, “Even now, you still flare up?”

“How can I stay calm?” Mieko’s face contorted, “Look at me, I was perfectly fine before, and now? Neither human nor ghost, all because of that bastard…”

“So you think you can kill her now?” Little Quan Jie’s face twisted as well, “Do you think I’m not suffering?”

“So what do you suggest?” Mieko knew it would be difficult to kill that woman; just the two snakes by her side were freakish enough, but she couldn’t stand not killing her.

“Follow them,” Little Quan Jie snorted coldly, “An opportunity will present itself.”

In the days that followed, the journey became much smoother, flowing swiftly southward.

Finally, on the sixteenth day, they reached the docks just outside Hangzhou City.

The Dong Family had sent someone to wait at the docks long in advance, greeted by their senior butler, surnamed Wang, usually called Uncle Wang by everyone. He had served the old master from his younger days and, despite his age, was still the head butler of the Dong Residence.

“Miss, eldest young miss, you have finally arrived…” Uncle Wang’s eyes reddened, “Hurry back; the courtyard has long been prepared, and the old master has been waiting…”

“Prince…”

“I’m here, won’t you invite me to the Dong family for a cup of tea?” Qi Jingyun hadn’t waited for Yang Ruxin to finish speaking when he made the request himself.

“It should be offered, but you know, my mother has been missing for over thirty years. There was already poison on the ship before, and who knows what might happen next, so I won’t invite you now, Prince. But if one day you come to Lianhua Town, I will personally play host, how about that?”

Qi Jingyun smiled, “Then it’s agreed.”

Yang Ruxin frowned slightly; he agreed too easily? But she couldn’t manage to consider his intentions now; the following days were unlikely to be smooth, and she needed to gather her spirits to cope.

A procession of six carriages grandly entered Hangzhou City.

Qi Jingyun watched the disappearing carriages, his lips curling slightly; Xinxin, we shall indeed meet again. Then he slipped into a carriage that had been waiting nearby and left the dock.

At the entrance of the Dong Residence, Dong Wenming was anxiously waiting with a white-haired old man; servants repeatedly came back to report—the carriages entered the city, crossed the White Causeway…

Soon, the lead carriage turned at a nearby archway, and the others quickly followed.

“They’re here.” Dong Wenming’s eyes instantly reddened.

The carriages stopped; Yang Miao leapt from one and helped Dong Wenxiu down.

“Xiuxiu…” The old master recognized his daughter at a glance and possibly overwhelmed by the emotion, he fainted after calling her name.
