Chapter 245 That little guy doesn’t like you at first sight
In the largest courtyard of the City Lord's Mansion, a group of wounded soldiers were lying on the ground, crying out "Ouch, ouch".
Wang Yuanshu looked at them in disbelief and asked in a deep voice, "Who beat you up like this?"
Is that Qingyun?
He knew that Qingyun was a martial arts master, but he didn't expect him to be so powerful, and... he was so cruel. Some of these soldiers were probably completely disabled.
"Sir," the leading soldier said tremblingly, "We could have killed them today, but... a little girl suddenly appeared on the way..."
"Little girl?" Wang Yuanshu was confused.
The soldier nodded. "Yes, sir, that little girl must be from a powerful background. She brought two maids with her, both top-notch fighters... It was them who beat us like this."
Wang Yuanshu was shocked, "You mean..."
He couldn't believe it and hurriedly asked, "What does that girl look like? Is she a barbarian?"
"She's probably wearing northern barbarian clothing and speaking a barbarian language," the soldier said, trying to recall. "Also, the jewelry she's wearing looks quite valuable. But she's being protected by experts, so we can't do anything to her."
Wang Yuanshu didn't say anything. He didn't expect that Li Suining and others were so lucky that there were people protecting them when they came here. Those people must have treated them as their own people.
He thought for a moment before whispering, "Take those people back to recover first. Then, find someone to check on that little girl. Tell me immediately if you find anything."
"Yes, sir."
Soon, the soldiers were carried away.

That night, Xiaotuanzi immediately asked Xingxing when she could meet the young lady again. However, Xingxing's answer made her a little disappointed. It seemed that she would not meet them in the short term.
Moreover, she saw her sixth brother being beaten tonight, and she was extremely anxious.
At the same time, in the fire house, Huo Linger was eating dessert after dinner, and occasionally gave a piece to You Zhu next to her.
She found a kind of pastry that was very delicious, and thinking that Xiaotuanzi would come over tomorrow, she immediately asked the kitchen to prepare some for her tomorrow.
Bai Kou chuckled beside him, "It seems that the young lady likes that little dumpling very much."
"That's about it." Huo Ling'er thought of that chubby little face, and a smile inadvertently appeared on the corner of her mouth. "But she's really pitiful. She's so old and still can't speak. I guess she's a little fool."
Bai Kou smiled again and flattered, "Miss, actually, that child isn't necessarily stupid. It's just that most children are definitely not as smart as you, who can speak everything so early."
Huo Linger raised her chin in satisfaction and instructed that more delicious food be prepared tomorrow.
You Zhu was listening at the side and couldn't help but feel a little contempt in his heart. His sister was much smarter than this unruly princess. However, he felt that his sister shouldn't have too much contact with Huo Linger, otherwise she would be exposed and would definitely be in danger.
So, he thought about it and couldn't help but sneered, "Princess? You meet someone and you don't know their background, but you open your heart to them. Are you too lonely?"
"What nonsense are you talking about, you little bastard?" Huo Ling'er's eyes widened instantly. "Did this princess give you face? How dare you talk like that?"
"Am I wrong?" You Zhu said fearlessly, "I'm telling the truth. I've only met him a few times, and yet you invited him home and even prepared this and that? How cheap!"
Although Huo Linger couldn't fully understand You Zhu's words, she could understand most of his meaning, especially the expression on You Zhu's face.
She instantly stood up, whipped out the whip, pointed at You Zhu and threatened, "Will you say another word of nonsense?"
"What? Are you afraid that others will look down on you?" You Zhu still looked like he was asking for a beating. "Then don't be so aggressive. That little girl obviously doesn't like you. If you hadn't saved her today, she definitely wouldn't even bother to look at you."
With a "snap" sound, Huo Linger's whip instantly lashed out, directly tearing You Zhu's sleeve.
"You little bastard, stop talking nonsense! This princess..." She paused before continuing, "I don't really like that dumpling, I just felt sorry for her. Besides, the food I just mentioned was prepared for me. I won't give it to her when she comes tomorrow."
"Tsk, who would believe you!" You Zhu snorted.
Huo Linger was so angry that she pointed her whip at You Zhu and said, "You little Jin dog, just wait! Bai Kou!"
"Yes, miss, you go ahead." Bai Kou immediately lowered her body respectfully.
Huo Linger angrily ordered, "Don't give him any food tomorrow! Show him some color, so he doesn't lose his temper."
"Yes, Miss, I'll take him away now to avoid him making you angry."
Bai Kou grabbed You Zhu's arm and pulled him away.
After going to the next room, she pushed the man to the ground and asked coldly, "What's wrong with you, kid? Why do you have to make the princess angry? Aren't you asking for trouble?"
You Zhu gritted his teeth and said, "Because I hate you, I hate you!"
"Idiot, reflect on yourself!" Bai Kou closed the door and left.
After she returned, she saw that Huo Linger was still in a bad mood.
She thought for a moment, then took a few steps forward and said, "Miss, don't take what that little Jin dog just said to heart. How could that Tuanzi not like you?"
Huo Ling'er's expression softened a bit, but she still looked nonchalant. "Who asked her to like it? She's so stupid, I just felt sorry for her."
Bai Kou has always been with Huo Linger, and knows the princess's temper very well. She also knows that the princess wants to make friends with that little dumpling.
She smiled and said, "That's right, it's normal for her to like you. After all, how many people in the entire Northern Barbarian world don't like you? However, if she wants to be friends with you, it depends on whether you are willing."
"Miss, let's see how that girl performs tomorrow. If she performs well, then we can pity her a few more times. But if she doesn't perform well," Bai Kou's expression turned a little colder, "then from now on, we will ignore her."
Huo Linger nodded in satisfaction, "Yes, let's see how she performs tomorrow."
Huo Linger did not sleep well that night. She was a little excited. Although she was the most noble princess of the Northern Barbarian royal family, she was also the only princess. Therefore, she did not have many friends, especially those of her age.
She couldn't help but always look forward to what would happen when little Tuanzi came tomorrow and what games they would play together.
Finally, realizing that she seemed to be pushing herself too far, she quickly forced herself to stop thinking about it.
She whispered to the darkness, "Little one, if you can bring me a small gift tomorrow, I will reluctantly accept you as my first friend."
