Chapter 111: Keep silent

111

Even though Li Huaiqing was furious with Mo Jingchun, the situation was not favorable for him.

Mo Jingchun's way of dealing with people had exceeded his expectations. In order to be able to leave the forest alive and safely, Li Huaiqing kept his mouth shut even to Lou Xiao.

Even if I tell Lou Xiao that it was Mo Jingchun who knocked him out and took him into the forest, what will happen?

Relying on another person to seek justice for himself, and this person is Lou Xiao──

He didn't want her to see his weakness.

He swore that this moment would be the last embarrassment in his life, and he would never let go of the person who caused this situation.

After finally seeing Li Huaiqing regain some spirit, Lou Xiao asked, "Why did you enter the dense forest? Are you lost?"

Right in front of him, Mo Jingchun cut off the neck of the pheasant he was hunting with a dagger, blood splattered on his face. He gave Li Huaiqing a lukewarm look.

It seemed like a warning, but also like contempt.

But Lou Xiao had her back to him and didn't notice it at all.

Li Huaiqing had never faced such direct malice in the first half of his life, even when he was studying abroad in the capital and in his clan's land.

As a respectable person in the officialdom, even if he wanted to kill the other party, he would always be friendly on the surface.

Or borrow a knife to kill someone, or hire someone to kill him - just like he was stabbed in the alley,

King Youshan came to see him as the mastermind, but he never showed it on his face.

Li Huaiqing's eyelashes trembled slightly, and he lowered his eyes and replied softly, "Yeah."

Lou Xiao had a feeling that something was wrong. Li Huaiqing was not the kind of person who liked to wander around, and what was he doing in the jungle alone?

However, I don't know whether Li Huaiqing has not fully recovered or doesn't want to say it. The proud young master of the capital has fallen into such a situation.

I guess he doesn't want her to mention it again and again and hurt her self-esteem.

So Lou Xiao didn't ask any more questions. The two of them didn't have such a deep relationship that there was no need to get to the bottom of it.

It would be easy if we found the person alive. Lou Xiao and Mo Jingchun half supported Li Huaiqing as they walked through the deep and dense forest.

She had been to many places with her master since she was a child, but she had never walked in such a dangerous forest.

"The air is filled with miasma, there's no sunlight, and it's hard to even tell the direction. No wonder you got lost." Lou Xiao said to the people around him in silence.

Mo Jingchun looked relaxed, as if he could not see the danger in the forest, and strolled leisurely in the garden as if he was at home.

He supported half of Li Huaiqing's body and continued, "Yes, he is lucky to be alive. There is a cliff a little further ahead. If he missed his step, he would be crushed to pieces."

Li Huaiqing spoke without any emotion, "It seems that Master Mo is very familiar with the terrain here."

"Of course." Mo Jingchun said kindly, "My lady and I searched the entire forest to find you and encountered many dangers. You must thank her."

Although he said thank you to Lou Xiao, he was actually telling him that it would be useless even if he complained.

After all, he also made a contribution to finding Li Huaiqing.

If he really wanted Li Huaiqing to die, why would he come with Lou Xiao to look for him, right?

"I am deeply grateful." Li Huaiqing replied while gritting his teeth.

Lou Xiao didn't hear anything wrong and looked around. "Let's find an open place. I'll send a signal to inform Er Liu and the others that we've found them. Let's hurry back to the village as soon as possible."

She turned around and looked at Li Huaiqing. "Go back and ask Erliu to check your body again. He is good at treating injuries and sprains, and he has... secret medicine."

She swallowed the word "Imperial Order" that was about to come out of her mouth. With Mo Jingchun around, she had to be careful with her words.
