Chapter 9

After everyone had gone far away, Rong Rong emerged from behind the tree.

"Haha, dogs fighting, hilarious!" 666 bounced around like a bouncy ball.

"Why don't you worry about my safety first?" Rong Rong was annoyed, feeling like she had been caught in the crossfire and had offended the little princess for no reason.

"Host, don't be afraid! We'll hide like the original owner!" 666 wasn't intimidated at all. "The important thing is that no one can disturb us while we're doing our mission!"

They were not at peace in An Garden; every now and then, men in black would sneak in. Rong Rong and 666 knew a little about this.

Once, Rong Rong was still in the room when she saw the hairpin she had used to tie Yang Yan's hair.

It seems Yang Yan still harbored the wicked intention of catching her, but now that she's in jail, she deserves it!

Rong Rong was persuaded, and her mood brightened up as well.

The next day, the sky was clear and the air was fresh. Rong Rong, unusually, gave Du Shaofeng a friendly look in public and invited him to go for a walk in the back mountain.

Du Shaofeng was full of doubts, not understanding why Rong Rong stopped playing games with him, but that didn't matter.

He didn't care about anything as long as his wife smiled at him.

"You don't need to follow us anymore, let's go take a look ahead."

Upon reaching a certain intersection, Rong Rong dismissed Cui Cui and several other maids, and led Du Shaofeng alone towards the pavilion not far away.

"Does my wife want to rest?" Du Shaofeng asked curiously.

"Let's enjoy the scenery," Rong Rong said with a smile.

Not far from that pavilion is the spot where Du Shaofeng fell off the cliff in the background of the story. Rong Rong is going to take action today.

As soon as the two sat down in the pavilion, Du Shaofeng happily ran out and picked a handful of foxtail grass.

"I haven't made a wife yet today," Du Shaofeng muttered, his fingers flying across the paper, and in the blink of an eye, an adorable kitten was born in his hands.

When Du Shaofeng excitedly returned with the kitten, Rong Rong also took out a packet of pastries wrapped in oil paper from her sleeve.

"What is this?" Du Shaofeng's eyes widened.

"This is for you to eat. Thank you to Shaofeng for giving me so many kittens."

Rong Rong smiled and peeled off the oil paper, revealing ten colorful, round, and soft snow dumplings lying inside.

"Snow Beauty".

This was something Rong Rong researched for a long time before she created it.

Du Shaofeng likes sweets, and she wanted to make something he liked as a parting gift.

"Wow!" Du Shaofeng happily picked up a dumpling and stuffed it into his mouth.

Chew quickly twice and then stuff in the next one.

The way they wolfed it down made 666 shudder.

I suddenly felt a chill, but why? I have no idea.

Rong Rong played with the kitten, and finally carefully put it into her sleeve.

She will never come back in the future; this will probably be her only kitten.

Let's keep it as a souvenir.

Rong Rong had just put the kitten away when she looked up and saw Du Shaofeng's face looking like an inflated balloon.

Rong Rong reluctantly wrapped up the remaining mochi and stuffed it into Du Shaofeng's arms, saying, "We'll save it for tomorrow."

If she doesn't intervene, Du Shaofeng will choke to death.

"Hmm, I'll listen to Liangzi!" Du Shaofeng stared intently at his chest, as if afraid that Xue Meiniang would suddenly disappear.

"Look! There's a sea of ​​clouds over there!" Rong Rong suddenly exclaimed, pointing to the cliff edge not far away.

Du Shaofeng looked up and immediately ran happily out of the pavilion.

Sure enough, you can see a sea of ​​clouds from the edge of the cliff, but the cloud layer is not very thick because Hongtu Mountain is not very high.

That makes sense. If it were a very high cliff, how could the male protagonist have survived so easily after falling off?

"My wife, you're so beautiful!" Du Shaofeng stared at the distance, mesmerized.

The midday sun bathed the earth, and golden rays pierced through the sea of ​​clouds, like the light of Buddha descending to earth.

Rong Rong was also stunned by the beautiful scenery before her eyes. The sky full of Buddha's light seemed to be guiding Du Shaofeng back to heaven.

A soul as pure and clean as Du Shaofeng's naturally deserves to go to heaven.

Rong Rong took one last look at Du Shaofeng's profile, and finally reached out and gave him a hard shove from behind.

"Ah!" Du Shaofeng exclaimed. What finally settled in Rong Rong's eyes were Du Shaofeng's eyes, which were filled with fear, longing, and endless unspoken words and complex emotions.

"Is he really an idiot?" Rong Rong murmured, her nose suddenly stinging, and tears slid down her cheeks.

"Sister-in-law, did you kill my brother?"

A cold voice suddenly rang out, and Rong Rong turned around abruptly. She saw that Du Shaoling was standing behind her with his men, one of whom was a servant who often followed Du Shaofeng.

The perpetrator was caught red-handed. Is it too late to run away now?

Rong Rong pondered silently, while Du Shaoling slowly stepped forward, a hint of coldness in his eyes.

"Tell me, what should we do with you?"

"Drowning a pig in a cage?"

"Or perhaps send him to the Meridian Gate of Shuntian Prefecture for execution?"

Du Shaoling still wore a gentle smile, but his words sent a chill down Rong Rong's spine.

Rong Rong slowly backed away, feeling utterly unlucky.

In the original story, the original owner managed to escape after pushing the male lead off, so how come she was caught red-handed by Du Shaoling?

If she dies, wouldn't the mission be declared a failure on the spot?

"Or, come with me, and I can guarantee your safety! You'll enjoy a lifetime of wealth and prosperity!"

At this point, Du Shaoling was already one step away from Rong Rong.

He looked down at Rong Rong, his eyes dark and filled with barely concealed desire and madness.

A few months felt like an eternity to him; he had finally waited for it.

"Are you threatening me?" Rong Rong's eyes widened. Apart from Du Shaofeng, the Du family members were indeed all hypocrites.

"I'm just giving you a choice." Du Shaoling chuckled, his greedy gaze fixed on Rong Rong without looking away for even a second.

"If you go with me, you won't even care about your elder brother? You're so cold-blooded and heartless, no different from an animal!" Rong Rong mocked.

"Of course, Rong Rong is much more important to me than my older brother!"

Du Shaoling's affectionate words only gave Rong Rong goosebumps.

"You despicable person!"

"I would do anything for Rongrong."

The joy of soon winning the beauty made Du Shaoling unable to maintain his usual refined demeanor. He moved closer and closer to Rong Rong and whispered seductively, "Be with me, and I can give you anything you want."

Seeing Du Shaoling's unyielding expression, Rong Rong knew she couldn't leave today.

“Go with him, and then we’ll figure out how to leave,” 666 suggested.

Rong Rong lowered her head, seemingly in submission, and Du Shaoling's eyes suddenly lit up, a deep smile spreading across his face.

Du Shaoling reached out to take Rong Rong's hand.

Suddenly, a whooshing sound pierced the air.

"Master, be careful!"

Du Shaoling was suddenly pulled behind someone, and at the same time, a sharp pain shot through his face, and a bloody welt suddenly appeared on Du Shaoling's face.

Before the others could react, Rong Rong was lifted into the air and rushed away into the distance.

"You despicable scoundrel, dare to try and steal my man? You're dreaming! Hahaha!"

"It's Yang Yan!" Du Shaoling's face turned grim. "Chase after him!"

He never expected that Yang Yan, who was supposed to be locked up in jail, would appear here.
