Chapter 150 (2/2)

”Young miss, shall I...?” Wu Lai asked Dong Zi.

The Blackhill Sect members felt their legs go limp from fear. Some of them started begging for mercy.

”Forget it. It's not like they managed to do anything to me anyway. Spare them,” Dong Zi said kindly.

”What are you waiting for? Scram!” Wu Lai shouted coldly.

The spared Blackhill Sect members immediately scattered. Not a single one of them dared to stay. As for the secret hidden within the cave and for Xiang Shaoyun and Dong Zi's harvest, they no longer dared to think about them. After all, nothing was more important than staying alive.

”Young miss, let me escort you back,” Wu Lai said.

”I don't want to go back yet,” Dong Zi said as she glanced at Xiang Shaoyun. She was somewhat unwilling to part with him.

”If you still refuse to go back, the maid pretending to be you will be punished,” Wu Lai reminded. That seemed to make Dong Zi think twice as hesitation started covering her face.

By the side, Xiang Shaoyun felt like there was no point for him to stay. Thus, he smiled and said, ”I'll be taking my leave. Go on, don't mind me.”

He then turned to leave.

”No, don't go!” Dong Zi pulled at Xiang Shaoyun's arm and said.

”Huh...do you still need anything from me?” Xiang Shaoyun asked with some hesitation.

”N-nothing.” Dong Zi couldn't bring herself to express her true feelings.

”If that's the case, this is where we part,” Xiang Shaoyun said in a carefree manner as he gently broke free of Dong Zi's grip.

Xiang Shaoyun had no hesitation making the decision to leave. After all, he was aware that this girl here was quite capable at holding a grudge. If he waited until she recovered to her normal self, he would most likely suffer from having touched her indecently.

”Overlord Xiang, wait!” Dong Zi called out again.

Xiang Shaoyun turned around and said, ”Just say what's on your mind. Stop wasting my time; I'm a busy person.”

”Watch your mouth, kid!” Wu Lai shouted as he glowered at Xiang Shaoyun when he saw how rudely this kid was treating his young miss. Instantly, his kingly presence swept forth toward Xiang Shaoyun.

Dong Zi quickly waved her hand to stop Wu Lai. Then with a solemn expression, she said to Xiang Shaoyun, ”M-my full name is Dong Ziwan.”

”Anything else?” Xiang Shaoyun asked.

”N-no,” Dong Ziwan's heart ached when she saw Xiang Shaoyun's uncaring behavior.

”Alright. Dong Ziwan? Yes, this is more like a woman's name. Alright, we will meet again if we have the chance. Farewell for now.” Xiang Shaoyun waved his hand and left quickly.

When Dong Ziwan saw how fast Xiang Shaoyun was slipping away, she asked herself with sorrow, Am I that hateful?

”Young miss, we should also go now,” Wu Lai said.

”Um, let's go,” Dong Ziwan answered, still rather dispirited.
