Chapter 616.1: Deal with someone (1/2)
Yun Ruofeng smiled as he reminisced about the days they spent together in the past. I’ll make Lan-er forget about Pei Qianhao and build a paradise for her. We’ve been through so much and missed so many opportunities; I’ll have to make good use of my chance this time.
“Prince Yun, do we need to switch routes?” His subordinate asked through the curtain.
Yun Ruofeng lifted the curtain and scanned the surroundings before saying, “No need, but let's not stop until we reach the countryside.”
“Understood.” The man then cracked the whip on the horse, and their carriage picked up speed.
Yun Ruofeng raised a hand to caress Su Xi-er’s cheek as he watched her peaceful appearance. “Lan-er, it’s been so long. I’ve been thinking about you day and night, and now that I have gained a second chance at life, I understand what I wish for the most.”
He bent down in an attempt to kiss her, but she pretended to turn in her sleep. Yun Ruofeng then mumbled, “Everything will be different when you wake up.”
Su Xi-er was pretending to be asleep since she knew there was no way she could beat him in a fight in her current condition. Pretending that she was still asleep and looking for an opportunity was the best course of action at this point.

In the meantime,the search for Su Xi-er was still ongoing. Pei Qianhao’s team had separated into four groups to follow each of the four different carriage tracks, with the prince himself taking the path with the deepest tracks.
Yun Ruofeng’s group rested at an inn after their arrival at a rural county the next morning, but he did not plan to stay long. He was making his way to the expert who had saved his life. The expert stayed some 50 miles out of Beimin’s capital city, and everything would go according to Yun Ruofeng’s plan as long as he could meet up with this expert before Pei Qianhao caught up.
Lan-er will then belong to me forever.
Yun Ruofeng carried Su Xi-er into one of the rooms in the inn and placed her gently on the bed. Even without sustenance, a person could sleep for seven days; all he had to do was reach his expert within that time.
