Not only did Chuzheng notice sothing was wrong with Man Yue, but others below also discovered issues.
Sotis his reactions didn’t quite match those of a normal person, for example, stubbornly wanting to find Yan Ya. Although he wasn’t particularly hostile towards Chuzheng and others, he didn’t really like them and would suddenly get angry upon entering.
It was only then that Chuzheng rembered to ask the Bastard for the information.
Man Yue was the second son in the Man Mansion, with a younger sister below him.
Those in the middle often get ignored, and Man Yue was like this, overshadowed by a remarkably talented and outstanding elder brother.
Below him was a clever and endearing younger sister.
Man Yue was stuck in this awkward position, and furthermore... when he was born, his mother was injured, which led to him having a bad temper since childhood.
Saying he had a bad temper was being polite.
To be harsh, you could say he was ntally ill.
He would inexplicably get angry, wasn’t willing to get close to others, and was rarely liked because he often seed gloomy.
Naturally, he didn’t please his parents either, living alone in a remote part of the mansion, and the only one accompanying him was Yan Ya.
So this second young master was like a ghost in the mansion, only rembered occasionally.
Perhaps because he lived far away, Man Yue escaped when an incident occurred at the Man Mansion, helped by Yan Ya.
However, since the other party was relentless and found that they had fled, they pursued them doggedly.
Yan Ya protected Man Yue until the end, sacrificing himself to save him. Witnessing Yan Ya’s death in front of him, Man Yue turned dark from the shock.
Man Yue’s thinking wasn’t impaired, but he occasionally couldn’t control his sudden outbursts of anger.
Like when he overturned the breakfast ant for him earlier.
Chuzheng rubbed her forehead, wondering about all these problems.
"Tower Master, Tower Master!!!"
A mber of Lou Zhong called out as if summoning a spirit, running over from afar.
"Tower Master, we’ve found Young Master Xi Nan."
"Did you bring him back?" Finally, the main goal of this outing had been found.
Lou Zhong’s expression froze for a mont: "No..."
Chuzheng: "..."
Xi Nan had been captured by a group of bandits nearby, and the bandit leader’s daughter had decided to make Xi Nan her husband.
And today was the wedding day.
Chuzheng: "..."
Lou Zhong anxiously said, "Tower Master, please hurry to rescue Young Master Xi Nan, or he’ll be forced to marry!"
Going out and finding oneself a wife isn’t so bad, is it?!
Chuzheng thought this was quite ideal, perhaps preparing a betrothal gift instead.
Lou Zhong, unaware of Chuzheng’s terrifying thoughts, was anxious and worried, afraid that Young Master Xi Nan would be spoiled by the bandit leader’s daughter.
"Let’s go and see..."
After all, he was her person, and she couldn’t allow him to be bullied.
Just as Chuzheng was about to leave, a loud noise ca from the room behind.
Chuzheng’s heart skipped a beat, and she turned towards the room.
"Tower Master!"
Lou Zhong saw Chuzheng turning back and imdiately panicked.
Isn’t saving Young Master Xi Nan more urgent now!!
Chuzheng opened Man Yue’s room, where the young boy stood on the floor with a gloomy face, barefoot, and had overturned a cabinet beside him.
Chuzheng: "..."
Lou Zhong wanted to follow Chuzheng in but was stopped by her.
She entered alone, tentatively holding the young boy’s wrist, who stared unblinkingly at her without reacting.
Chuzheng pulled him over: "What’s wrong?"
The boy said nothing, suddenly reaching out to hug her.
Chuzheng: "??"
I... damn damn!
The Good Person Card is hugging voluntarily!!
From the doorway, Lou Zhong poked his head in anxiously: "Tower Master, it’s almost noon, if we don’t leave now, we won’t make it in ti!!"
While Lou Zhong was speaking, Chuzheng noticeably felt the boy hugging her tighter, as if...
"You don’t want to leave?"
The boy didn’t reply, only holding on even tighter.
Now, Lou Zhong, standing at the door, could see the boy’s eyes, looking at him as if they would slice him into pieces, terrifying.
Lou Zhong suppressed his shivers, daring not to make a sound.
What on earth did the Tower Master pick up this ti...?
"But I have to save soone." Chuzheng hugged him by the shoulder: "Why don’t I take you with , okay?"
The boy looked up at her, his clear black-and-white eyes appearing as innocent as a newborn, with a bit of confusion, nodding slightly after a while.
"Then let go of first."
Man Yue lowered his head, holding her without moving.
Chuzheng: "...Fine."
Chuzheng directly picked him up horizontally: "Prepare the carriage, and have a doctor accompany us."
Lou Zhong: "..."
Your outings are increasingly resembling the imperial style!
Are you sure you want to bring him along?
Lou Zhong now understood that the Tower Master had changed recently, not daring to argue, he quickly went to prepare the carriage.
Every second he delayed ant an increased risk for Young Master Xi Nan.
-
Chuzheng carried Man Yue onto the carriage, and the young boy didn’t release her even after sitting down, only speaking when the carriage started moving: "When will Yan Ya be back?"
"I’ll bring him to you as soon as I find him," Chuzheng responded casually.
Whether Man Yue was satisfied or dissatisfied with this answer was unclear, as he showed no reaction.
Chuzheng patted Man Yue’s back, soothing him like one does a child.
The boy’s body still hadn’t recovered, and combined with inexplicable damage to his ridians, he soon fell asleep.
Chuzheng covered him with a cloak, revealing only his pale but beautiful face.
-
The bandit hideout was near Wugu Mountain, a place easy to defend and hard to attack. The governnt office had tried nurous tis to encircle and suppress them, but failed each ti, allowing this bandit lair to grow increasingly arrogant.
Today, the entire hideout was decorated for the bandit leader’s daughter’s wedding.
And the groom—
Was tied up in a room.
Xi Nan, following what Xin Yu had told him, ca looking and halfway encountered a girl who said she had seen what he ntioned.
She even promised to take him to find it.
The girl appeared cute and harmless, dressed as any ordinary person, so Xi Nan believed her.
As a result...
Now he was tied up here.
The girl wasn’t any good; she was the daughter of the bandit leader.
Xi Nan was tearful inside, wondering if this was the end for him.
The only consolation was that the bandit princess wasn’t ugly, looking rather cute, but even so, he couldn’t accept it ahh!!
"Creak—"
The door opened, and Xi Nan looked up to see several won entering with wedding clothes.
"Young master, ti to change."
Xi Nan: "..."
No!!!
Xi Nan, bound and drugged, couldn’t even muster the strength to struggle, watching helplessly as the won dressed him in wedding clothes.
"Mmm mmm mmm..." Xi Nan, his mouth stuffed, could only mumble helplessly.
"The groom is quite handso."
"Otherwise, how could our young lady fancy him?"
"Mmm mmm mmm!!" I’m still here!
Finally, soone noticed him: "Our young lady is not bad either. Groom, don’t pout, live well with her, you won’t be mistreated."
Xi Nan: "..."
It’s easy for you to say when you’re not the one being tied up and forced!
