The General's Daughter Doesn't Want to Get Married!-Chapter 128: Ambush

Thirteen covered Nine’s mouth as he forcefully took the latter outside of the room, leaving Yun Shu alone.

"I wonder what is he doing?" Yun Shu mumbled as she looked down at her lap, her eyes downcast, so was her heart.

After the quest completion, Yun Shu has been having a lot of mood swings lately. It wasn’t even the time of the month, but she already had such a grumbling mood swing and headache.

She felt as if her energy also depleted a lot. But Chen Yi went to sleep after the system upgrade started, she couldn’t ask him anything either.

’Let’s sort out the situation at hand.’

As she thought, Yun Shu leaned on her back on the chair as she looked through the scrolls.

That was the time when a man in long, black veil barged in the room, his body didn’t stop moving until his eyes fell on Yun Shu, who seemed like a heavenly deity descended upon the world, lazily looking uninterested in the dull, human world.

"You are here." Yun Si said as he pushed his veil to the side, attracting Yun Shu’s attention successfully.

"What brings the Crown Prince of the Empire to this humble servants door, Your Highness?" Yun Shu stood up as she asked Yun Si. Though she already knew the reason of his coming.

"His Majesty asked me to oversee the case, I came here. I didn’t expect to get such a warm welcome though." Yun Si could see how perfectly Yun Shu disguised herself. If it wasn’t for the familiar tone of mockery, he would’ve been mistaken for real.

Even wearing someone else’s face, Yun Shu exduded a strong aura that couldn’t be taken so simply.

"It’s good that Your Highness is here, do take some time for adjustments, I’ll call my subordinates to help you get a better look around the area." Despite knowing the facts, Yun Shu still mocked Yun Si because of the weaknesses he held close despite being the Crown Prince of a nation.

"No need to call the subordinates, instead, show me around after you get up. I’m tired after travelling for a long distance, I’ll leave to take a little rest."

With that, Yun Si stormed out of the room, just as he barged in all of sudden.

’Rude bastard.’

Yun Shu snickered as she thought, initially speaking, the two of them never got along even when the original owner was here, nor Yun Shu of now had any intention to do so.

And the way Yun Si behaved always ticked her off, so much that she wanted to kick his ass from time to time!

Anyway, Yun Shu wasn’t in the mood to take a rest after getting so worked up. So she stood up and also stormed out of the room after changing.

***

Three days later,

"Did you refuse the invitation?" Yun Shu asked as she crossed her arms over her chest.

"Yes, My Lord. But the Lady seemed angry, even if she tried to hide it. Hehe..." Nine smiled foolishly as he reported, the look on Lady Xia’s face was worth watching.

After the day they arrived, Lady Xia didn’t come to greet them, nor did she show any interest in them. But after spending the night at the Lord’s home, she started sending invitation for tea every day. And the fact that she invited Yun Shu alone was suspicious, after that it’s been three days of rejecting her invitations, it seems that she didn’t intend to give up easily either.

A wicked smile appeared in Yun Shu’s face, "Reject this one too, as usual."

All these constant rejection made her anxious, this much was understandable.

However, this is the perfect situation that Yun Shu has been preparing for diligently.

"Yes, My Lord." Nine bowed as he saw the wicked smile on Yun Shu’s face.

This man was truly on a whole other level, for someone to underestimate him easily, they will need to be at least beyond his level in cunningness.

However,

A certain someone emerged behind Yun Shu as they attacked him, hugging her waist from behind as he perfectly ambushed her.

"Got you!"

"...! What are you—!" Yun Shu was surprised as she grabbed the hands, but her body froze when she realised who it was.

"My Lord."

"..."

"Why aren’t you saying anything? Are you gonna continue running away? Or make some other excuse?"

Bai Yunxian hugged Yun Shu tightly, he had no intention to let her go today.

Not until he gets a proper explanation!

"What happened in the meantime? Did I make any mistake that displeased you by chance? Or did you hrow tired of me that you don’t want to see my face anymore?"

The situation was getting hitted as the atmosphere seemed off, with a awkward situation prevailing.

"I’ll see you later, My Lord!" Nine bowed as he quickly run away, leaving the pair of seemingly quarreling husband and wife alone.

Today, now that he got a hold of Yun Shu, he must get an explanation from this man!

It’s been three days since that night, Bai Yunxian failed to see or step on Yun Shu’s shadow, he didn’t know why at first, so he thought maybe it’s because he was too busy.

However, it didn’t take long for him to realize that something was amiss, and that Yun Shu has been avoiding him.

After that, Bai Yunxian tried to catch him and ambush him at many times, but failed unfortunately.

Then his brother kept him busy with cultivating at night after forcing the Yellow Dragon Fruit down his throat. So he couldn’t go find her at night, nor did Yun Shu show up.

After a lot of trial and error, he finaly got a hold onto Yun Shu!

"Sigh... let go of me, Xian’er. It’s not what you think—" Yun Shu tried to take off Bai Yunxian’s hands from her waist, but they only tightened around her even more.

"No! I won’t let you off until you tell me the reason you are avoiding me."
