Chapter 121 - 119. Ambushed II (1/2)
Third person POV
The ten of them finally caught up with the entourage, they immediately went up to Huayun and told her what happened.
Hong er: ” We should quickly go and save her!”
Hong er came out from her carriage and grabbed Huayun's arm. Huayun's body was as cold as ice, she couldn't believe that her biggest fear happened. She was too shocked to move her body, meanwhile Hong er started to get panic and anxious because Huayun wouldn't move even though she pulled her.
Hong er: ' Why?! Everyone I love keeps dying, I don't want to lose Meiyun after Sheng ge.'
Lu Ping: ” Miss Xu.. Miss Xu! Calm down!”
Hong er didn't realize that she had been holding her breath for quite some time, her body was drenched in cold sweat. At that time, Lu Ping noticed that Hong er's carriage stopped and then he heard a commotion from outside, he peeked outside and saw that Hong er had a panic attack. He quickly went to Hong er's side and calmed her down. He gave order to the soldiers to aid Meiyun's group, with more people, the ten of them became more confident in defeating the assassins. They quickly departed to where Meiyun was.
Hong er: ” I-I need to save Meiyun.”
Hong er staggered.
Lu Ping: ” Miss Xu, we have to pass the border as soon as possible. It is too dangerous in here!”
Lu Ping tried to convince Hong er but not a word could pass through her ear. He glanced at the dazed Huayun and got an idea, he went to her side and snapped his fingers in front of her face to woke her up. Huayun slowly looked up to Lu Ping.
Lu Ping: ” Go convince Miss Xu to not go! It will be too dangerous for her.”
Huayun turned her eyes to look at Hong er, she remembered that she had promised Meiyun that she would always protect their Young Miss no matter what. Huayun immediately snapped out of her mind and held Hong er's arm to stop her from going.
Huayun: ” Young Miss, you mustn't!”
Hong er: ” But Meiyun needs our help!”
Huayun: ” Lu Gongzi had sent a reinforcement to help her!”
Hong er: ” But..”
Huayun: ” Our priority is to get Young Miss safely arrive at the capital! Meiyun wouldn't want Young Miss to get hurt and we aren't sure if she is dead or not therefore we have to believe in her.”
Hong er stopped struggling, at that time when Meiyun asked her if she trusted her and she said yes, if she went to Meiyun's side right now, it meant she didn't trust Meiyun's capability. She gritted her teeth and went back into her carriage. Lu Ping sighed and told the entourage to continue their journey. Huayun looked up to the sky as she walked along beside Hong er's carriage.
Huayun: ' Please come back safely, Meiyun.'

Meiyun slowly opened her eyes and dazedly stares at the grandeur ceiling.
Meiyun: ' Wasei~ So pretty.'
Warriors wielding their swords while riding horse across the mountains together as a family, that's what the crafting on the ceiling shown. Meiyun widened her eyes and abruptly sat up.
