Pregnant Before the Royal Marriage-Chapter 674 - 675: A man, naked, hanging on a tree
Chapter 674: Chapter 675: A man, naked, hanging on a tree
Guying asked, “Is Seventh Miss questioning my abilities?”
“…No, I wouldn’t dare.”
“Farewell!”
Guying carried Prince Xinhai and with a few leaps, disappeared from everyone’s sight.
Jiang Ning recovered her senses and asked Gucheng, “Are all of you guys this eccentric?”
Gucheng thought about it and shook his head.
What does eccentric mean?
He didn’t quite understand.
He was just doing things according to the Grand General’s teachings and instructions.
Jiang Ning asked again, “This Guying, being a Scavenger and wearing such a clean white outfit, must change clothes every day. Given his cleanliness obsession, I doubt he’d let anyone else handle his things.”
“Guying has been dealing with corpses since he was five, all kinds of corpses, every day in piles of corpses and a variety of bloody messes. This has turned him into an extreme clean freak.”
A calm voice came from above.
Jiang Ning looked up and saw Guxing, the God of Thieves, squatting on a tree, arms crossed and long ponytail swinging in the wind.
“Oh, why are you here?” Jiang Ning looked at her in puzzlement.
“I’m here to deliver a message to Seventh Miss.”
“What message?”
“First, Wenren Zong will return to the Capital in three days.”
Jiang Ning exclaimed, “He’s really coming back? How is that possible? The Wenren Family hasn’t been acquitted, has it?”
“The Emperor has pardoned the Wenren Family’s sins and returned their residence to them,” Guxing said, “However, from now on, they can no longer serve in the Imperial Court and will remain commoners.”
“Oh, what else?”
“Secondly, someone else is coming with Wenren Zong.”
“Who is it?”
“The new headmaster of Spring Autumn Academy, Lin Shimo.”
“What Academy?” Jiang Ning had never heard of it before.
However, she caught a glimpse of Gucheng’s expression change slightly from the corner of her eye when he heard this.
She was somewhat surprised.
Having known Gucheng for so long, he barely showed any particular expression no matter what happened.
But this was a person whose name she had never heard of, yet it made Gucheng change his expression.
What kind of place was this Spring Autumn Academy?
And who was Lin Shimo?
Guxing didn’t answer her questions, as she was only there to deliver the message.
Having said all that, she turned and flew away.
Leaving Jiang Ning standing there, bewildered.
What kind of academy is it?
She looked at Gucheng. freewёbnoνel.com
Gucheng was silent, his eyes slightly lowered, seemingly organizing his thoughts.
Jiang Ning decided to let him go.
She now knew that Gucheng’s way of speaking was due to witnessing the death of his parents at a young age, suffering severe trauma, and becoming a stutterer.
He had mild autism and couldn’t speak properly.
Jiang Ning waived, “Let’s go back to the palace first; it’s getting cold.”
So the young man in black stopped struggling, and his expression visibly relaxed.
The carriage passed by Ronghua Street, which was ten times busier than before, with many people running and shouting, “Come and see!”
“What is there to see?” Jiang Ning leaned out and asked a young woman.
The young woman was carrying a basket, holding a child’s hand, blushing and covering her mouth with laughter, “A naked man, tied to a tree in this cold weather… I have had enough.”
Jiang Ning laughed, “Well, it’s worth seeing since such opportunities are rare.”
“Miss, you’d better not see this kind of thing, it’s really embarrassing.” The young woman thought Jiang Ning was a young unmarried girl with an innocent face and still wearing her hair down, and kindly advised her.
