The soldier didn't go to the hunting grounds because he was responsible for guarding the captured women.

He slowly approached the two of them, a slight upturn to his lips, his smile sinister.

He had already met Qin Susu and Apu before, and all he knew was that they were women who had come with the Chanyu.

He thought to himself, "The Chanyu already has so many women, how many more will he ever have?"

Some are so full they die of overeating, while others starve to death.

The soldier carefully observed Qin Susu and Apu's features, and couldn't help but swallow.

These two women each have their own unique features.

Qin Susu was clearly a woman from the Central Plains.

Seeing that Apu had thick eyebrows, big eyes, a high nose, and deep-set eyes, he couldn't help but guess that the woman must have come from the Western Regions.

Before the soldier could get close, Qin Susu quickly pulled Apu back a step, turned around, and was about to leave.

However, he was directly blocked in front of the soldier.

"Halt!" The soldier stepped forward again. "Who are you?"

Qin Susu: "Can't you see that, woman!"

She silently vowed to herself, "This time, I absolutely cannot cause trouble again. I can't let Qiu Yan clean up my messes again. Otherwise, I wouldn't even know when Qiu Yan might replace me."

"What's your relationship with the woman inside?" The soldier's eyes were glared at, his mind fixed on Qin Susu's alluring figure, earning him a cold glare from Qin Susu.

Qin Susu: "We were just passing by and didn't want to disturb you. Farewell!"

Through months of training, she learned that one should not be blindly confident when one does not know the strength of the opponent.

Because of her own warlike nature, Qiu Yan had already cleaned up the mess for her many times, so this time, she couldn't be reckless again.

She clasped her hands in a fist salute and was about to leave when she was once again stopped by the barbarian soldier.

“This is interesting. Come with me, let the Chanyu give you a good lesson.”

The soldiers wouldn't let Qin Susu and Apu leave easily. Their chieftain had said that for suspicious people, it was better to kill the innocent than to let them go.

However, since they were people brought back by the Chanyu, he dared not deal with them lightly.

As he spoke, he stepped forward, intending to subdue the two men, one in each hand.

However, Qin Susu beat him to it.

"Okay." Qin Susu turned to the side and pushed Apu away.

Suddenly, a single palm shot out, clamping down on the soldier's wrist, while the other hand reached for his lower back, provoking the soldier...

Bewitched

Unexpectedly, the women of the Central Plains were so proactive.

Could it be that he wanted me to make an exception, so he used his looks to seduce her?

He smiled, his eyes narrowed.

But the next moment...

"Certainly!"

The soldier suddenly froze, unable to move his entire body.

He glared angrily at Qin Susu:

"What kind of sorcery did you use on me?"

Apu's eyes widened again; she still couldn't figure out what Qin Susu had done.

"Sorcery?" Qin Susu couldn't help but laugh out loud: "Haha, that's quite an interesting way to put it."

This useless soldier has absolutely no sense of vigilance; she had overestimated his strength just now.

It was the soldier's own stubbornness that prevented them from leaving, so don't blame her for being impolite.

She was just worried that she had nothing to do for fun.

"Keep a close watch on them, and see how I let these women go!"

"If you dare release them, you will be going against our Chanyu, and going against our Chanyu will result in a terrible death!"

“I’ve opposed Huyan Xun more than once or twice.”

Qin Susu recalled the scene on the rafters of the Lu Shi King's palace and couldn't help but shrink back.

She was genuinely scared.

Xiaoyan, if I cause any more trouble, you must protect me.

Qin Susu had just been thinking about not causing any more trouble, but she quickly forgot about it.

She prayed silently and pulled Apu into the yurt, solely out of her kind compassion.
