Chapter 16

Let’s Go Along The Same Way Then

“Where is your Master now?”

Lin Yue thought that she had given in and hurriedly said, “There’s no news for the time being, but our Master said if we get separated, we should head over to the next city to wait for news.”

Bai Wutong asked, “Beiyun City?”

“Right.”

Bai Wutong asked bluntly, “Why didn’t the emperor just confiscate your houses?”

Even if he couldn’t find all the silver, the amount from the fixed a.s.sets should be enough.

Seeing that if he did not answer this question, Bai Wutong did not intend to leave with them, Lin Yue said hesitantly, “Before the war, our Master secretly sold all the shops under his name.”

Bai Wutong raised her eyebrows in surprise. What a character! He would rather clear the warehouse and sell at a low price than leave the emperor with a piece.

Then, she thought of something and probed, “Don’t tell me your Master planned to join the Ling Kingdom from the beginning?”

Lin Yue paused and stammered, “How can I predict what Master is thinking?”

Bai Wutong looked at him and had already figured out most of the thoughts of this richest man in the country.

He had probably long expected that the Yan Kingdom would not be able to make a comeback. That was why he was so decisive and did not hesitate to abandon all his businesses and escape to Ling Kingdom with his son.

‘How astute.’

Unfortunately, the emperor’s men had found out.

Bai Wutong looked at Little Stinky in her arms and fell into deep thought.

As long as Sheng Huaixuan was not caught, the emperor would keep sending people to capture him.

Lin Yue also knew that they were a source of trouble, so he hurriedly said, “Miss and Sir are also going to the Beiyun City, right? As long as we reach Beiyun City, I promise not to trouble you again!”

Stinky was unaware of the adults’ world. He played with the palm of Bai Wutong and tickled her palm with his small hand, as if it was tickling her heart.

If the emperor brought him back, who knew what would happen to the child?

Bai Wutong sighed. “How long until we reach Beiyun City?”

Lin Yue’s eyes were filled with joy, and his pale face was glowing. “We’re already near the boundary of the Beiyun City. We should be able to arrive in two days on horseback.”

Two days. She could avoid using the RV s.p.a.ce lest he notice something amiss.

Bai Wutong nodded. “Then let’s go along the same way then!”

Lin Yue couldn’t care less about his wound. He hurriedly knelt on the ground and said, “Miss and Sir are the greatest benefactors of our Master and Young Master! As long as Miss and Sir say the word, I will definitely go through h.e.l.l and seas for you!”

Bai Wutong stared at him for a few moments, her eyes darkening. “It’s good enough not to cause trouble for us.”

Lin Yue’s back stiffened and he did not dare to say anything.

He didn’t know if they would cause trouble for Bai Wutong later on, but they probably would.

Therefore, playing dead was the best choice at this moment.

How could Bai Wutong not see through his thoughts? With a low laugh, she pushed the bowl in front of him again. “Eat your food first. We’ll be on our way at dawn.” She placed the medicine in front of him. “You can apply the medicine yourself, right?”

Lin Yue nodded gratefully. “Yes.”

The ancient people were indeed physically strong.

In the blink of an eye, Bai Wutong started feeling depressed again. Why was she so lousy?

“That’s good.” She thought of something else. “Stinky can’t just eat porridge. We have to find milk for him.”

A six-month-old baby could drink more than a thousand milliliters a day. The baby milk in her RV s.p.a.ce would last until the next night at most.

Lin Yue had already accepted the Young Master ‘elegant nickname’ Stinky and nodded. “I’ll go find some.”

Bai Wutong nodded. “Yeah.”

After dinner, Bai Wutong took out some potatoes and sweet potatoes from her bag and threw them into the pot.

Chu Tianbao looked at the potatoes and sweet potatoes in the pot and propped his face up. “Are we having potatoes and sweet potatoes again tomorrow?” He was tired of eating them.

Bai Wutong opened her bag again and showed him. “There are four duck eggs left.”

Chu Tianbao’s eyes lit up. “Salted duck eggs are delicious.”

Bai Wutong smiled. “Yes, we can eat with porridge and pickled vegetables.”

Chu Tianbao was easily satisfied. “Okay.”

Lin Yue was surprised to see that they still had so much food.

However, on second thought, with Chu Tianbao’s skills, it was not difficult for him to get some food.

Bai Wutong prepared the food for the next day’s journey and took out the blanket from her bag to let Lin Yue cover Stinky, who was sleeping.

Lin Yue thanked her softly. Just as he covered Stinky with the blanket, he woke up.

“Wah wah wah—”

The earth-shattering cry was magnified several times in the still night.

It would easily attract robbers or refugees.

“Young Master, Young Master, don’t cry ~ Don’t cry ~” Lin Yue hurriedly coaxed.

His shoulder was injured and he couldn’t pick him up to coax.

“Let me do it. Don’t cause your wound to open again. I don’t have that much medicine.” Bai Wutong carried Stinky, who was almost out of breath from crying, before he even opened his eyes.

The moonlight fell on them like a wash of silver.

Lin Yue felt even more grateful.

Chu Tianbao suddenly appeared from behind and covered his eyes. “Don’t look at my wife!”

Chu Tianbao spoke sinisterly, as if he would dig his eyeb.a.l.l.s out if he dared to look again.

Lin Yue had long seen Chu Tianbao’s extraordinary possessiveness towards Bai Wutong. His back felt cold as he hurriedly shook his head. “Sir, you’ve misunderstood. How would I dare to have improper thoughts about Miss Bai? No, Madam Bai.”

Chu Tianbao snorted proudly.

Lin Yue asked carefully, “Sir, can you take your hand away?” He had already promised.

Chu Tianbao said fiercely, “No!”

Lin Yue’s head hurt. Why was it so difficult to communicate with him!

Bai Wutong was afraid that Chu Tianbao would wake Stinky up again, so she made him retract his claws.

As dawn broke, they packed up and continued on their way.

Bai Wutong carried Stinky at the front of the horse while Chu Tianbao held the reins and sat behind. He hugged them like a warm family of three.

Lin Yue had recovered well. He ran beside them for a while and recognized where they were and said, “There’s a farm ahead. I’ll go find milk for Young Master.”

Bai Wutong nodded in agreement, and he rode away.

Chu Tianbao said to Stinky, “He doesn’t want you anymore. Just follow us.”

Stinky was hanging on Bai Wutong’s chest, his big face facing Chu Tianbao. His two big eyes blinked twice, and he said in a cute voice, “Ah Pu ~ Ah Pu ~” as if he had readily agreed.

Bai Wutong’s eyebrows twitched. She said to Chu Tianbao, “Don’t talk nonsense to the child!”

Chu Tianbao pursed his lips. “Oh ~” Then he said regretfully to Stinky, “If my wife doesn’t agree, there’s nothing I can do.”

“Ah Pu ~ Ah Pu ~” Stinky spat as he patted Chu Tianbao’s chest with his meaty hand.

“You want to stay?” Chu Tianbao asked.

“Ah pu ~ Ah pu ~”

Bai Wutong glanced at the smiling bun face and sighed. She gave in and let the two of them communicate in their own strange ways.
