Chapter 59 - Gorgeous Doctor (6) (2/2)

After Ming Shu finished her meat, she leisurely strolled near them with Hui Xue and Liu Feng. But she didn’t get closer to them, just kept wandering not far away.

The others were full of confusion, not knowing what she wanted to do.

However, there was a clear boundary between them and Ming Shu, and neither side crossed over the line.

Bai Yanran finally accepted the fact that Ming Shu would no longer listen to her, so she let go of the idea of ordering her about now. But deep in her heart, she was thinking of taking revenge for today, trying to find a way to teach Ming Shu a lesson.

When it grew darker, everyone noticed Ming Shu starting to roast meat again.

The tempting smell of the meat floated over, making their mouths water.

But they had all grown up with servants and no one was willing to go hunting. More importantly, they had lost all their strength during the day being chased after by the sixth level spirit beast. They were too tired to move.

“Yanran, what’s wrong with that Zhi Po?” Someone approached Bai Yanran, asking with a grouchy stare pointed in the direction of Ming Shu.

Before, when Zhi Po was with them, they didn’t have to worry about the food at all, because the two servants beside her would do everything for all of them.

“Who knows,” Bai Yanran answered resentfully. “I didn’t beg her to come with me. Now she’s giving me the cold shoulder, who does she think she is!”

“Yanran, if you didn’t treat her that way, we might have avoided these unpalatable things now.” A girl sitting opposite them blamed Bai Yanran, her tone ironic.

Hearing this, Bai Yanran exploded. “What do you mean? Are you blaming me?”

“I didn’t say that, don’t mistake me, Yanran,” the girl immediately denied, but her tone was still iffy. “But I heard that she took the initiative to protect you. She was not your servant, how could you command her like a slave?”

Bai Yanran was about to erupt. Then she saw Feng Cheng coming this way out of the corner of her eye, so she merely glared at the girl before putting on a smiling face for Feng Cheng.

The girl rolled her eyes at Bai Yanran and whispered, “If not for your family, who would tolerate you? Now you dream to latch onto Lord Seven, what a joke.”

The others also looked at each other and then quickly averted their gazes.

Truly, they didn’t like Bai Yanran; she always ordered them about and acted like she was the queen. But they could do nothing about it. She was born with a silver spoon in her mouth!

Late at night, the camp quieted down.

Ming Shu chewed on a bone like a dog. She stared at the campfire before her and pondered, What to eat for breakfast?

Hui Xue sat next to Ming Shu. She was too sleepy to hold up her head.

Ming Shu reached out to hold Hui Xue’s slumping form, preventing her from hitting her head. Hui Xue was then gently placed against a tree trunk.

Liu Feng, who stood in the tree, looked down to catch this picture. His calm black eyes flashed. The Miss seemed more approachable now and smiled more often.

But that smile was not the same as in Death Valley. He couldn’t tell what the difference was, though.

Rustling…

Some weak sounds suddenly emerged from the woods behind them. Ming Shu turned her head to peer into the darkness, then she stood up, propping herself on the trunk and doing a little stretch. The Feng Cheng’s escorts also heard the noises. But seeing Ming Shu stand up, they thought it was Ming Shu making the noise. After staring at her for a few seconds and not hearing the strange noises again, they slowly drew back their gazes.

But something didn’t seem right. Pondering uncertainly, the escorts turned to the source again.

There was only a campfire there, the flames swaying with the night breeze. Nothing to see but the shift of dark and light.

Even the one standing in the tree was gone.

“Aooooo~!”

Several dark shadows leaped out from the darkness. The leading one was the very same sixth level spirit beast that chased them during the day.

“Beast attack!”

“Ahhh!”
