One side of Yu Dong’s mouth kicked up and then said, ” I will be taking care of you soon, then I will see how long you will last.” She hugged him and then inhaled his sweet scent, her entire body relaxed when she felt his warmth against her when she saw the pile of corpses that she found in the mountains, even though she did not show it on her face anything but inside her heart, she was rather terrified.

When she didn’t know, when she was not looking the woman behind this horrible crime came rather close to Xiao Hua. If she wasn’t careful if Xiao Hua wasn’t looking over his shoulders and keeping a good distance from the strange woman, if not then he would too——

She closed her eyes and breathed in before she pulled away from Xiao Hua and then placed her hands on his shoulders. ” Now come on we need to have a little talk.”

Seeing the serious expression on Yu Dong’s face, Xiao Hua sobered up in an instant and he let her pull into the room she asked him to sit down on her lap as she sit down on the edge of his bed.

He did as she asked without even the slightest bit of shyness, this was his woman what was wrong with him sitting in her lap? He sunk in her lap and then planted his hands on Yu Dong’s shoulders, he would have loved to make out with her in this position but seeing the severe look on her face, he knew that she was not going to allow it.

She placed her hands on his waist and then hugged him slightly before saying, ” There is something that I want to tell you.”

” Did something happen?” Xiao Hua asked blinking as he looked at Yu Dong who nodded with her jaw hardening. ” We found a pile of corpses in the mountains, the villagers were called and as you are thinking right now, they were trying to shift the blame on everyone else but them because they know they were in the wrong and when they were shifting the blame, a name came up —— Pei Yuyan, do you know about this woman?”

Xiao Hua snapped his head up and looked at Yu Dong in surprise. ” Who?”

” She is the daughter of village head Gu’s sister, I don’t know much about her but looks like she was adopted by the village head Gu’s sister and she was once your admirer as well, do you remember her?”

” I don’t remember,” Xiao Hua shook his head, when he worked as a courtesan, he used to have a bunch of admirers, how was he supposed to remember anyone? But then again there were quite a lot of admirers who were flat-out freaks even worse thane the previous Yu Dong, but the thing was that even their amount was too much that he could not remember a particular one.

” You don’t remember anyone?” Yu Dong thought that maybe Pei Yuyan would have done something when Xiao Hua was working as a courtesan that way she will be able to narrow the list down to a name but when Xiao Hua shook his head, she sighed and then went on to say something more but then a sound of something being hurled at her made her twist her waist as she caught hold of the stone that was thrown at the two of them.

She kept her hand on Xiao Hua’s waist while she kept hold of the letter wrapped in a stone that was thrown at them. She looked at the paper that was wrapped in the stone and then looked at the direction from where the stone came, she wanted to chase the person who threw the stone but when she felt Xiao Hua going rigid in her arms, she decided to ignore the person for the time being when she saw that Xiao Hua was in shock.

” Are you okay?” She asked him as she turned her head to look at the mer whose eyes were wide in shock as he looked at her with his mouth dropped open. ” Tha…that… someone threw that at me…”

“It’s okay, I am here, nothing will happen to you.” She opened the letter that was wrapped in the stone and read it carefully ——-

‘ I wish I could tell you this in person but then I know that Yu Dong will try to keep us away from each other, you know that she would try to keep us apart after all she has always been eyeing you as well. But I still want to let you know that I like you, I know that I have never told you something like this before but I can no longer hide it.

But what makes me annoyed is that you are acting like you cannot see that the sender of these gifts is me, you know that it’s me. I have been by your side for so long, you have even smiled at me in your darkest time, I hope you liked the gifts that I sent you after all I know you the best. I know you loved them.

I did not think that you will leave the tavern but now that you have left it, I thought that I will be the first person you will come to see me after waiting for so long but then I realised that you are a shy mer, you being a mer who do not have any experience in love. I just adore the fact that you have kept yourself pure for me, I appreciate it and I will treasure your first time, I just need you to come and look for me, I will wait for you Hua’er. Because I love you so much.’
