Chapter 106 - 106. Sheng Ge is... II (1/2)
Third person POV
An enormous thunder suddenly strikes down behind Hong er. Fortunately Meiyun managed to dodge to the side with the shocked Huayun in her arm. Hong er widened her eyes in horror, she couldn't believe that Weisheng would be gone just like that. Hong er slowly grabbed the black clothed man's arm and lightly pulled his arm.
Hong er: ” Is-is it true? E-everyone?”
The black clothed man nodded his head and didn't dare directly look at Hong er's eyes. The sky slowly darken and the grey clouds started to engulf the capital's sky. Tears flew down from Hong er's eyes and dripped to the ground. Meiyun looked at Hong er with sad eyes, she didn't want her Young Miss to feel sad or heartbroken then she looked at Huayun that was crying silently in her embrace. She gently caressed Huayun's back with one hand.
Rain poured down but they still stood unmoving. Meiyun noticed that Hong er's body was shaking, she walked to Hong er's side while gently dragged Huayun with her. She held Hong er's cold hand and warmed it with her hand's temperature. She caressed Hong er's back hand with her thumb and smiled gently at Hong er. Hong er slowly turned her head to look at Meiyun and her tears immediately burst out as she hugged Meiyun.
Meiyun almost fell when Hong er suddenly jumped on her but she didn't mind it at all. Rather, she caressed two crying girls' back while whispering a spell to them. Not long after, Hong er and Huayun fell asleep in Meiyun's embrace. The servants that stood beside them quickly bring the two girls to a room and changed their wet clothes.
Meiyun went to her own room and changed her clothes, the room was so quiet that you could hear Meiyun's tears fell to the wooden floor. She quickly wiped off her tears and walked out from her room. She instructed a servant to prepare a small, simple looking carriage and food supplies. The servant immediately complied to her orders because Meiyun was the one who usually take the charge if Hong er was not here. Meiyun slapped her own cheek to bring herself back from the sorrow and talked to herself.
Meiyun: ' You have to be strong. You have Young Miss and Huayun to protect. At this time, they depend on you. And you have to trust that giant, he will definitely come back and marry Young Miss. And the last one, Qiyi….'
Meiyun: ' He definitely will be fine.'
The rain has stopped the moment Hong er fell asleep, Meiyun went to Hong er's room and carried the sleeping Hong er into the carriage while Ah Tong carried Huayun. Because they wanted to leave capital unnoticed, Meiyun told Xiao Bai to follow them without being noticed. She used her horse and Huayun's horse to pull the carriage. Meiyun sat on the driver seat and commanded the horses to gallop.
After a few hours, Hong er and Huayun slowly regained their consciousness. They rubbed their head and still couldn't grasp what happened. Meiyun heard some movement from inside, she knocked the carriage with her knuckle and asked.
Hong er: ” Young Miss, Huayun, awake?”
Hong er suddenly remembered the shocking news, her tears threaten to fall again but she bit her lips and held back her tears. She hummed in a low voice while Huayun was looking outside with dead eyes.
Huayun: ' Qier…'
Meiyun: ” Huayun!”
Huayun immediately woke up from her daze.
Meiyun: ” I know you are sad but our first priority is to protect Young Miss. You hear me?”
