28: Huangfu You Currying Favor

Huangfu You Currying Favor

Huangfu You saw everything. Xia Muqing's ability to communicate with beasts shocked her.1

The meaning behind her words made her heart surge with waves of shock.

These beasts were actually here to send Xia Muqing off.

And now, she was determined to befriend Xia Muqing.

Although their first meeting didn't go too well, Huangfu You felt that as long as she put aside her pride, she would definitely be able to gain Xia Muqing's favor.

Huangfu You used her eyes to warn the guards behind her that none of them should speak of this matter.

The frightened guards nodded repeatedly and looked at Xia Muqing in fear.

Thinking about how they had even tried to attack Xia Muqing previously, they trembled even more.

They would never expect Xia Muqing to subdue all the beasts with her medical skills when martial arts were prized in the country.

They only guessed that Xia Muqing was a hidden expert who didn't reveal herself.

"Come out."

Xia Muqing had long discovered Huangfu You's whereabouts.

Huangfu You smiled brightly and jumped out from behind the tree.

"I'm just worried about Sister."

Xia Muqing turned around and left, ignoring Huangfu You.

Huangfu You didn't mind and followed her obediently. She kept chatting with her.

Xia Muqing replied occasionally.

A thought struck Huangfu You and she asked about Xia Muqing's identity. "Where do you live, Sister?"

It was within Xia Muqing's expectations that Huangfu You hadn't recognized her.

Although everyone knew that Xia Muqing was a useless bum, she had never shown her face to anyone.

Every time she went out, her face would be filled with colors.

Xia Muqing was getting annoyed by Huangfu You's chatter.

With an impish smile, she spat out a few words, "Xia Muqing from the Xia family."

After saying that, she ignored Huangfu You's reaction and walked forward.

Seeing that Huangfu You didn't follow her, Xia Muqing quickened her pace. Finally she had gotten rid of that annoying girl.

Huangfu You and the guards behind her stood in the middle of the path.

A gust of wind blew past, but no one moved at all, as if they were petrified.

"Who did she say she was?" Huangfu You asked expressionlessly.

"Xia Muqing from the Xia family," a guard replied blankly.

"Is there another Xia family in the country?"

Huangfu You was still unwilling to give up.

"No."

This answer made Huangfu You realize that the girl was really that useless Xia Muqing.

"Haha—"

Huangfu You let out a nervous laugh before bursting into laughter.

"Hahaha—"

Her laughter was so loud that the birds on the trees flew away.

Huangfu You placed her hands on her waist, looking re-energized.

The Xia family was always making things difficult for her father because of their power.

The Xia family had been hunting geese all day. This time, they were going to be pecked by geese.

The entire country knew what kind of life Xia Muqing led with the Xia family.

It was fine if Xia Muqing was really a piece of trash. After all, the strong preyed on the weak.

But now, it was still uncertain who was stronger.

Suddenly, Huangfu You's expression changed. She had to hurry back and tell her father about the situation.

It wouldn't be good if the Xia Family resorted to tricks to get Xia Muqing back on their side.

The royal family had to strike first.

Huangfu You, who snapped out of her own thoughts, realized that Xia Muqing had disappeared. She immediately yelped, "Where's Xia Muqing?"

"She has already left," replied the guard.

"Then why didn't you tell me!"

After saying that, Huangfu You scurried after her.

She had to build a good relationship with Xia Muqing.

Xia Muqing had just walked out of Sunset Mountains.

The streets were as bustling as before.

Now she had the time to see what was happening on the streets.
