Wu Chao couldn't bear it and clenched his fist - when it was time to ask more troublesome questions, he didn't ask?
"Ready your horse!"
"Hey!" Xiaoqi ran out quickly after noticing the murderous aura in her young master.
Wu Chao stood still in front of the basin, not even bothering to ask someone to fetch hot water. He picked up the icy cold water and washed himself in a hurry. He straightened his clothes and strode outside.
Just as he crossed the threshold, he suddenly remembered something, turned back to the room, and grabbed Tianmu, who was still sleeping soundly.
Xiaoqi didn't know how to call him, but the bird actually slept till now. It really didn't bother anyone.
Taking Big Bird, who had just woken up and still looked confused, Wu Chao came to the outside of the courtyard, took the reins from Xiao Qi's hand, and jumped onto the horse.
"Young Master." Xiao Qi quickly took out something: "This is what Miss Xu ordered her subordinates to return to the Young Master last night -"
Wu Chao looked down and saw that it was his own peace charm. After being slightly startled, he took it.
Seeing the man, horse and bird disappearing very quickly from sight, the stewards, servants, maids and women who had just heard the news and came to see him off rushed to nothing.
Several little maids sighed secretly.
One of them looked particularly smart, but his eyes were filled with regret.
Her sisters all wanted to take this opportunity to show their faces in front of the young master, but who knew that they had a great time fighting for it, but in the end, none of them had the chance to get close to the young master——
She is different.
She was originally interested in the guest who came with the young master - the young master looked younger than the young master, but his appearance was not inferior to the young master's.
She originally wanted to take a shortcut with fewer people and less competition, but she also thought that the young master was easy to coax at a young age, and anyone who could be friends with him must have a good family background.
But who would have thought that the young master also refused to let anyone get close to him, and the white and tender entourage he brought with him was even more frightening. She went to deliver tonic soup to the young master last night, and was almost thrown out by the attendant.
Hey, how come today's wealthy young men are all so behaving so suddenly? Where did this unhealthy trend come from?
Nowadays, it is getting more and more difficult for them, who are maids, to find a way out.
Wu Chao didn't stop all the way. After entering the city, he went straight to Yinxian Tower.
He entered the city through the west gate, and Xu Mingyi had to go through the south gate when leaving the city to return to the capital. Therefore, he could not know at the city gate guard whether Xu Mingyi had left the city, so he could only rush back to Yinxian Tower first——
There was only one unfamiliar waiter in the lobby, so Wu Chao strode straight to the second floor.
He stopped outside the guest room where Xu Mingyi had been staying recently and patted the door.
Soon the door was opened.
However, what came into view was the dressed-up face of a waiter. The waiter was holding a rag in his hand and was obviously cleaning the room.
"I don't know, guest..."
Before the clerk finished speaking, he heard the young man in front of him ask urgently: "Where is the young master who used to live here?"
"You're talking about Mr. Xu." The waiter smiled and replied, "Mr. Xu and his party have already moved away——"
"How long have you been gone?"
"It's been half an hour!" - The answer came not from the waiter's mouth, but from the guest room next door, and the voice was very anxious.
What followed was the sound of the door next door being opened.
Qiu Cai'er was helped out by the maid and looked at Wu Chao. Her weak expression could not conceal her excitement. She hurriedly urged: "But we are going by carriage and carrying a lot of luggage. I can't come here in half an hour."
We can’t go far... If Mr. Wu rides a horse to chase him, we can always catch him before dark!"
Wu Chao was surprised for a moment.
Why did this Miss Qiu reveal all his inner plans?
He nodded slightly, said "Thank you", and hurried downstairs.
Looking at the young man's leaving figure, Qiu Caier coughed for a while, but felt very comfortable in her heart.
She didn't see Young Master Wu coming to see Miss Xu off today, and she felt very disappointed and sad about it. She even pulled Miss Xu and talked for a long time in order to delay Young Master Wu for more time -
Fortunately, Mr. Wu arrived not too late, and her worries were not in vain.
Wu Chao chased him for more than sixty miles without stopping.
Finally, they caught up with Xu Mingyi and his party outside a town.
The young man rode over the group of people and stopped in front.
Qin Wu, who was riding at the front to open the way, saw the person coming clearly, pressed back the knife he was about to pull out from behind his cloak, reined in his horse and asked with a frown, "Why did Wu Shisun stop me from waiting for my way out?"
Coming here alone doesn't look like he's looking for trouble, so - he can't follow his girl back to the capital to celebrate the New Year, right?!
If that were the case, no one would have a good time this year!
Wu Chao had already turned over and dismounted, held his hands towards Qin Wuyi, and said, "I'm here to see Miss Xu off."
While speaking, he looked at the carriage that had just stopped behind Qin Wu.
Before Qin Wu could speak, he saw the thick carriage curtain being pushed open from the inside, and soon a fair and delicate face appeared in his sight.
Seeing this face, a smile immediately appeared in Wu Chao's eyes, and he strode towards her.
The people in the carriage quickly jumped out.
She had to ride a carriage all the way, so she simply changed into her daughter's comfortable home clothes. This was also the first time Wu Chao saw her in her original dress after she came to Ningyang.
Seeing her getting off the carriage, Ah Zhu quickly followed her out and wrapped a snow-green cloak trimmed with fox fur around her.
Xu Mingyi tied up the belt in a hurry and walked towards Wu Chao without stopping.
"I thought you wanted to sleep a little longer." Her eyes were bright with a smile, and her tone was casual but joyful.
"Why didn't anyone wake me up?" Thinking of being drunk last night, Wu Chao felt a little uncomfortable.
"I saw you were sleeping deeply, so I didn't call you specifically."
See him sleeping deeply?
So, did she go to see him in his room this morning?
Thinking of this possibility, the young man coughed - fortunately, his sleep state was not bad.
He looked at the girl in front of him and said: "I couldn't greet you when you came. Now that you are leaving, you should see her off - I just thought on the way that even if you chase me to the capital, you still have to see her off.
"
Chase to the capital?
Xu Mingyi couldn't help but smile.
Chasing to the capital - that's fine too.
"And you have lost your third eye." Wu Chao said again.
He knew that she might not have planned to take the big bird with her again - but if Tianmu didn't return to Beijing with her, would he still have a suitable reason to write to her?
As he spoke, he subconsciously looked behind him.
But the horse was empty, and there was no sign of the big bird.
At this time, Ah Zhu reminded from the side: "The Third Eye has just got into the carriage."
"..." Wu Chao's brows moved.
Has he spoken? He knows that he can return to the capital with Miss Xu?
