Chapter 42 - He Came to Pick Her up (1/2)

Proofread by Claire.KK

The sun had almost set when Ye Xiaoxian came out from Lord Liu’s.

When she just stepped out of the gate, surprisingly, she saw Xiao Baoshan stand outside.

He was standing out of the gate and his face with chiseled features was full of anxiety but once he saw Ye Xiaoxian coming out, his knitted eyebrows loosened up.

“What are you doing here?” asked Ye Xiaoxian puzzledly.

“Ma told me that Lord Liu’s housekeeper had taken you away and let me have a look. If you didn’t come out before the sunset, I would…”

“What would you do?” asked Ye Xiaoxian smilingly.

“I would probably burst into the gate.” Xiao Baoshan wore a feeble smile.

“Really? For me? There are so many guards in Lord Liu’s house and you’re not afraid of getting hit?” Ye Xiaoxian teased him.

Xiao Baoshan didn’t answer but asked, “Were you doing okay there? Was everything alright?”

“Ma let you ask me this as well?” asked Ye Xiaoxian.

Xiao Baoshan paused in a daze first but then nodded.

Ye Xiaoxian was somehow upset all of a sudden and then said sulkily, “I was perfectly alright there just now. Couldn’t be better.”

She then strode away.

Xiao Baoshan caught her up right.

…

“What? Five hundred coins per day?”
