Chapter 368: Journey Through the Nigh (1/2)
Pei Rumo might not know what Bai Luochu wanted to do but when he thought that she wouldn’t do anything useless, the doubts in his mind disappeared. He returned to his room but she called out to him before he walked too far.
“Your First Highness, don’t forget to relay the information. If they reply and mention some important place, do let me know.”
“Don’t worry. If there are any findings, I will definitely inform you.” Pei Rumo finished speaking and walked towards his room.
Just as Pei Rumo left, Qin Feng entered.
“Mistress, I am here to deliver hot water.” Qin Feng carried quite a lot of hot water and was short of breath when he finally arrived at her room.
Bai Luochu immediately opened the door for Qin Feng so that he could bring in the hot water. When Qin Feng finished pouring the hot water into Bai Luochu’s bathtub, he was already panting.
“You have worked hard. If there is nothing else, get some rest.” Bai Luochu finished her statement and Qin Feng was preparing to leave as though he had received an order. But just two steps later, Bai Luochu called out to him again.
“Is there any news from Ying Lan’s side?”
Qin Feng scratched his head and spoke with an embarrassed tone, “In response to Mistress, there is no news yet. But this subordinate thinks that it should be soon. I immediately sent the message after your instructions yesterday night. I think that Commander Ying Lan hasn’t made preparations yet, hence, he didn’t send a reply. Once there is news, I will inform Mistress as soon as possible.”
Bai Luochu nodded and waved her hand to dismiss Qin Feng.
Just as Qin Feng had predicted, Ying Lan was currently in a discussion with Meng Luoping and Guan Yue at the Remote Paddy Inn.
“Take a look before we think of some countermeasures.” Ying Lan pushed the message slip from Qin Feng’s messenger pigeon and asked them to read it carefully.
Meng Luoping’s face immediately changed after reading, “What did I say? She wouldn’t listen when we persuaded her previously and she is now requesting for help... I knew that the Desolate Region is strange and Pei Rumo probably has some ulterior motives for bringing her there.”
When Guan Yue read it, he wasn’t as impatient as Meng Luoping as he was a young master of an aristocratic clan. He was more composed when dealing with such matters. After reading the message slip, Guan Yue consoled Meng Luoping, “Relax a little. If our Mistress is able to send us a message, it means she is safe, right? Now is not the time for us to complain. We better come up with a countermeasure quickly.”
