Chapter 53: She Wants to Survive (2/2)

Her little face was full of bewilderment.

Meng Li seemed to understand everything, “So he considers you are not talented?”

“I haven’t learnt anything yet. How could he know that?” An Rushuang shook her head.

Hearing this, Meng Li raised his eyebrows and looked at her with a little mockery.

Unless her master was blind, he could definitely tell she was not smart.

“Do you really love these tricks?” asked Meng Li.

Soon he smiled and felt he was asking something redundant.

Hearing this, An Rushuang was stunned before she suddenly recalled that she had deceived him previously. He did not know what she indeed wanted to learn was medical expertise.

Thinking so, An Rushuang shook her head, “No, I don't like it.”

She was referring to both medical science and the tricks.

“Then what is the point of insisting?” asked Meng Li in surprise.

True enough! What is the point?

An Rushuang had asked herself the same question, but she never figured out the answer. Sitting in the tent and looking at the fading darkness, she felt a bunch of light was replacing the darkness and it seemed to light up her heart instantly.

An Rushuang murmured, “I just want to survive in the desperate world.”

She never thought of trampling anyone or standing at the top. She just wanted to make up for her losses in the previous life and save her family in this life.

“If you think there is something you have to do, then keep going on,” smiled Meng Li, “Even if you have to niggle over him or pester him wherever he goes, as long as you stay with him, you’ll definitely seize an opportunity to learn from him, won’t you?”

Err…

It seemed that a general was teaching her how to make someone her master by unusual means.

An Rushuang looked at him in surprise and then laughed out.

It was bright outside.

An Rushuang heard a familiar voice.

Meng Li saw the girl disappearing again and he really wondered what tricks she were learning at the moment.

“General!”

Suddenly, Du Yong opened the curtain and came in with anxiety, “Our tracks have been revealed. The enemies have beefed up the troop and surrounded our camp. They are now ten miles away from us!”

Hearing this, Meng Li turned serious and sneered, “Right on time. Let’s see.”

Against the fierce wind, horses were running and a bright horn was heard across the camp.

Hong Yu wanted to let Miss An have a good sleep, but she really couldn't handle the woman in white outside. The woman kept saying, “No worries. If sister has not got up, I can wait.”

She stood right at the doorsteps and it seemed she wouldn’t leave until An Rushuang get up. Seeing this, Hong Yu was indeed annoyed. But she remembered what Miss An told her and did not dare to say anything; she had no choice but to wake up An Rushuang.

An Rushuang slowly opened her eyes and looked at Hong Yu. She felt much brighter in heart, just like the sun outside.

She finally thought through that she could keep pestering Bian Wen for as many days as she wanted until he agreed her proposal.

She was just a girl and even that general advised her to do such impolite things; it was absolutely fine for her to do that.

An Rushuang had a lot of spare time. As for the embroidery Lady An asked for, it was not a bad idea to play it by ears.

Thinking so, An Rushuang told Hong Yu, “Find me a comfortable and plain suit and send someone to take a message to mum. I cannot have breakfast with her. Let’s go out in a moment.”
