Tearing the Prince's Clothes after Withdrawing Marriage Chapter 936 - 935: I Like It and That’s Good

Chu Qianli woke up to find that the day had already fully broken.

As soon as she opened her eyes, she sat up sharply, her face guarded, "The sll of dicine n!"

She turned towards the man beside her.

At that mont, Feng Dingchu was still sitting on the ground, quietly watching her.

"Uncle Jiu, get up, there are dicine n!"

Feng Dingchu shook his head with a hint of helplessness, "No need to be afraid, they’re all dead."

Chu Qianli was sowhat astonished; following the scent of the poison, she saw that not far away, indeed, several dicine n’s corpses lay.

Seeing this first thing in the morning really turned her stomach.

Yet she had slept soundly last night, completely unaware of any sign of a fight near her.

Looking back at Feng Dingchu, he was still sitting on the ground, but the flowers and grass around him had clearly been ravaged by palm winds.

To have defeated the dicine n without waking her was truly remarkable.

"There are only a few dicine n; the others must be searching for us everywhere."

She tugged at Feng Dingchu’s sleeve, "Quick! We must check on the village!"

Feng Dingchu, too, seed to rember sothing, and attempted to stand but then furrowed his brows.

"Uncle Jiu?"

"My leg... it’s numb." Feng Dingchu didn’t want to remain seated, but numbness in his leg was truly unbearable, leaving him without the strength to rise.

Chu Qianli then rembered that when she had woken up, her head seed to have been resting on his leg.

Had it been all night?

No wonder it was numb. A whole night without proper blood circulation would certainly do that.

"I’ll rub it for you."

She was anxious to return to the village to inspect the situation, so without further thought, she squatted down, reached for Feng Dingchu’s thigh, and was about to give him a massage.

Feng Dingchu’s expression changed instantly, and he hurriedly pushed her away, "You little girl, don’t ss around! Don’t take liberties!"

"So you know you are an elder? Do elders care about such things? In my eyes, you’re still that scruffy old man."

Chu Qianli ignored him, her fingers landing on the pressure points on his leg. After a few massages, Feng Dingchu indeed felt a sense of relief in his leg.

He finally managed to stand up with effort and after taking a couple of steps, he felt much more comfortable.

But a scruffy old man?

Alright, if he had known, he wouldn’t have shaved that beard and just remained the scruffy old man, that would have saved him the trouble.

"Little Lili, do you know how to disguise? Get my beard back."

"No, you look better this way. It’s pleasing to my eyes."

"This look... is a bit inconvenient." While he didn’t care about societal views, he didn’t like attracting undue attention.

Chu Qianli was still unyielding, "As long as I like it."

"..."

The duo talked as they hurried towards the small village.

Before they even arrived, they already detected an abnormal scent.

Chu Qianli glanced up at Feng Dingchu, whose eyebrows had also deepened in concern.

Without any need for verbal communication, they quickened their pace together.

From the village, thick smoke was rising, the screams of the villagers intermingled with the wind.

Soone had set fire to the village.

"Old Mother Sun, what happened?" Chu Qianli hastened towards her.

Everyone was carrying water trying to put out the fire, but only Old Mother Sun tried several tis to rush into the flas.

"Huzi... Huzi is missing! He was still in the room this morning..."

Old Mother Sun hadn’t finished speaking when a white-clad figure dashed into the fiery inferno.

"Uncle Jiu!" Chu Qianli gasped in shock, about to follow when a bundle of burning straw fell from above.

Had Chu Qianli not dragged Old Mother Sun away forcefully, both of them might have been consud by the fire!

"Uncle Jiu! Be careful!"

But in her sight, that figure had already disappeared into the raging flas.
