Chapter 93.1: A Dou Bi Came (1/2)

“It was still fine earlier but now that you’ve mentioned it, I really am a little hungry.” Tang Doudou turned and searched the carriage. In just a little while, she found a pile of food to eat. From the looks of this pile, Baili Yu really was planning to spend several months on this carriage!

“Master, this old servant has arrived. Should we set off right now?”

Right at this time, an aged voice came from outside the carriage. It sounded quite familiar, yet Tang Doudou couldn’t recall where she heard it.

Tang Doudou wanted to go out and take a look but Baili Yu pulled her down and made her sit. She looked at him, confused. Baili Yu simply looked at her, then he spoke softly to the person outside. “Set off.”

“Understood.”

Creak, creak…

The carriage slowly started to move and the speed gradually increased. However, the inside of the carriage remained very stable.

“You can sit outside once we exit the city.”

The carriage had moved for quite a long while. Baili Yu could feel Tang Doudou moving around restlessly even with his eyes closed.

From the looks of it, she couldn’t endure this type of boredom. However, it would take at least two months to get to Azure Water Valley. If he kept her locked up in this carriage like this, she’ll probably fall apart before they even got to Azure Water Valley.

“Really?” Tang Doudou who was, at the moment, stuffing desserts rapidly into her mouth, asked in a muffled happy tone.

“Eat slowly, don’t choke.”

“Don’t worry, I won’t choke. Then that’s a promise! You better not retract it later!” Tang Doudou threw away the dessert in her hand and dusted her hands off. She then asked the person driving the carriage, “The grandpa outside, how much longer before we leave the city?”

“Haha, Lady, be patient a little longer. We’re almost out of the city.”

Baili Yu suddenly asked, “Old Ding, has Ye Chuan and the others returned yet?”

“Not yet, but they probably will soon,” Old Ding replied.

“After we leave the city, have the Chamber of Commerce in Huai City withdraw. I’m afraid we probably won’t have the opportunity to return there any more.”

“Master…”

“I naturally have my plans, there’s no need for Old Ding to worry.”

“This old servant is not worrying about this. This old servant is just worried about your health…” Steward Ding gave a long sigh, his tone filled with regret.

Baili Yu swept an eye at Tang Doudou whose face was filled with curiosity. He smiled and said, “It’s nothing but a minor ailment. I’ll recover very soon.”

A minor ailment?

Tang Doudou looked at him with doubt in her eyes. What exactly is this guy sick with?

Although he said it was a minor ailment, she felt that the illness wasn’t that simple. That abnormal flare up of symptoms when they fell down San Yu’s roof was too strange.

When Steward Ding heard what Baili Yu said, he sighed again. However, he didn’t continue speaking and just silently focused on driving the horse forward.

Tang Doudou, who was extremely bored, suddenly recalled the incident involving Lou Qingyun. The moment she woke up after being saved by Baili Yu, she had questioned Bai Feiyun about the Rutaceae Pavilion incident. However, Bai Feiyun said Baili Yu had handled the entire incident so he didn’t know much about it.

Originally, Tang Doudou had headed out with the intent of asking Baili Yu about it. However, she ended up being dragged to the competition by Meng Yu and a whole bunch of things had happened afterwards. Hence, she never got a chance to ask till now. In any case, since there was nothing to do right now, what better time was there to ask?

Just as she opened her mouth, Baili Yu figured out what she wanted to ask.
