612 Young Men
Bai Ying was surprised, a young man maybe not much older than him holding his hand. Thereâs a mole on the young manâs chin, triangle-shaped and small face, is he Xu Yan? But, the young men behind him, the three of them were looking at him with big eyes.
âUm, what do you want?â asked Bai Ying when the young man is holding him so tight to the point of hurting him.
âAh!â
The three young men pushed Bai Ying down into the bushes.
They pulled him away from the hall in order to bully him, really?
As Bai Ying was trying to get up from the fall, the biggest young man among others move and get ready to step on his hand.
âThis new kid, how could he steal our chance as soon as he came, impudent!â
A slightly built young man with a round face, a pair of small eyes and a large mouth looked at him intently. He would step on Bai Yingâs hand if it wasnât for someone holding him. He was a young man who from his facial features was like the young master Xu he was looking for.
âDonât hurt him, Mrs Mao will be so mad if she found even a little scratch on himâ
.....
Bai Ying pulled his leg and sat. What did the youths do? They donât look like the victims, is this some kind of gathering camp for these village youths?
He waved the dirt from his palms, as well as his clothes. Slowly got up from the fall and looked at the young men in front of him. Everyone, without exception, stared at him as if he was their worst enemy.
âWhat do you want?â
The burly young man was about to step forward again and push, but this time Bai Ying did not let him touch him even a bit, he pushed the youth and the others down without even touching them. Immediately the three youths, except the young man who had helped him earlier, were pushed backwards with a bang.
âAh!â
The Young man Xuâs eyes widened. Who is this very interesting delicate young man in front of him?
âYouâ
Morning comes.
Mrs Maoâs residence was more like a small palace complex surrounded by high walls. Several large buildings, one of which is the main building where the dinner was held last night, is also where Madame Maoâs room is located. There was a large garden in front of the large building and a small lake where several colourful ducks were seen swimming happily.
The large residence complex had lots of maids who walk around to clean the surroundings even before sunrise.
Mrs Mao is sitting enjoying her breakfast at a round table in front of the garden accompanied by several of her young maids. She slept so soundly last night that she forgot what had happened. When she woke up at dawn, she saw the sweet young man who accompanied her last night sleeping very soundly right beside her.
Bai Ying returned to the room past midnight and slept so soundly next to Madam Mao that he made sure she would not wake up before morning.
âUm, Your Highness, donât take my foodâ he even grunts.
Mrs Mao raised her teacup and saw Miss Hu approaching.
âMadam, how was the kid last night, you didnât even come out all night after entering the room,â asked Miss Hu.
Mrs Mao pursed her lips, she herself forgot how she fell asleep just like that and lose her guard for not knowing anything else all night. She almost forgot what happened after she touched the young man. But, it felt quite pleasant too, having not enjoyed such a deep sleep after a while.
âUm, heâs quite cute, well, thatâs how it is.â
Miss Hu sat down in front of Mrs Mao.
âQuite cute? Heâs still a kid, of course, heâs very cute, Iâm saying if youâre tired of him donât forget to give him to me, okay.â
Hearing that Mrs Mao who was about to take a sip of her tea stopped. Seeing Miss Hu talking like that as if it was something she always does.
âWhat do you mean, by giving him to you? Itâs delicious, I just havenât had enough of him yet, why should I give him to you?â said Mrs Mao putting the teacup back on the saucer.
Miss Hu smiled, she lifted her teacup and took a slow sip.
âReally, after last night you didnât go out at all, there must have been a lot of things going on, right?â
Mrs Mao stuttered, as if deep in thought.
âUm, well, though, Iâm not going to give him to you, havenât I already given you a lot of youth before? Where are you taking them to? Is that not enough for you?â
âMao Mao, you get tired of them yourself easily, let alone me, of course, I sent them back to their village, why should I keep them for myself?â
The two women who looked like they were no longer young turned their heads when they saw a guard approaching to report.
âReport madam, there are guests from the village waiting in front, he said he wanted to talk to you urgently,â said the young woman.
Madam Mao looked at the young guard sharply. She lifted her teacup.
âWhat is that ugly old man here for? Such a disturbing.â
Madam Mao glanced at one of her maids to come closer.
âYes, madamâ
âYou check the guest room, is that young man still sleeping or not? Prepare delicious food for him, serve him as best as possible, oh yeah, and the clothes, that I just bought yesterday seem to suit him, give them to him. I will meet that idiot and come back to the room for him, lest he dislikes your service or youâll see what Iâm going to do with all of you, âsaid the woman.
The young maid in front of him lowered his head nodding.
âYes, madamâ
....
Meanwhile. Beyond the border of the forest that is under the Purple Water village.
The Crown Princeâs entourage, Chen Ming, Bei Yau and Xiao Hong along with a few guards had already arrived in the forest after following the lead of the tracking coins.
Not far in front of them, behind the thick vegetation that covered the line of sight, was a tall gate made of large logs to resemble a military base. There didnât seem to be anyone there, but Luo Xiang was sure that there must be a lot of people guarding it behind the tall wall.
âThis isnât a place we usually find in the forest, who exactly are these people?â
Luo Xiang has indeed heard General Yan mention that there is a legend about a tribe that disappeared in the depths of the forest in Dai Yang, although he doesnât know where exactly it is, he feels that they might have found them.
Luo Xiang turned his horseâs head.
âBei, we will set the camp around here, see who will come in and out of there,â Luo Xiang said.
Chen Ming widened his eyes, canât believe what the Crown Prince said who turned his horseâs head away from the gate.
âEh, hey rotten Crown Prince, my little brother is in there, canât we just go in and get him out? What are we waiting for!â he exclaimed.
Luo Xiang didnât seem to care about Chen Mingâs voice, he carried his horse walk past him.
âYing Ying is not in the mood to be disturbed, Prince Chen, you know he will come out when he is readyâ
Chen Ming was speechless.
âHow did he get out? That kid just looks so great but actually, heâs stupid, we have to go in and pull him out, you, if you donât to, let me and Xiao Hong go in thereâ
Chen Ming was about to head towards the gate but Xiao Hong held his horseâs reins.
âPrince, itâs right what the Crown Prince said. After all King Realm can come out without our help, heâs just not ready at this time, itâs better for us to wait a whileâ said Xiao Hong.
Chen Ming looked at Xiao Hong sharply and exhaled in annoyance.
âAh, you guys, that little brother wonât be able to get out on his own, he always forgets the way home, let alone the way out of a strange place, can you guys really trust him?â
Inside Madam Maoâs complex, on the garden path.
Bai Ying sneezes out of the blue.
âHaatchie haacthie!â he rubbed his nose, the air was so bright and the wind was warm, how could it out of the blue he sneeze? someone must have called his name carelessly.
âOuch, times like thisâ
Thereâs a young man following behind him. It is young master Xu who had driven him over last night after coming with his friends to bully him.
âCome on, we have to get out of here.â
That young man, young master Xu, Xu Yan complied when Bai Yingâs hand tugged him, but where were they going? After so many days even Xu Yan couldnât find his way out of there.
