next day
After breakfast, the group set off north. Jiang lifted the carriage curtain and looked out. Along the way, he could see lush green woods and muddy paths, and the air was filled with the fragrance of soil and leaves.
Lou Ji rode on a Ferghana horse, his eyes fixed on the side, his back straight, his exposed profile tense, his long dark eyes emitting an icy aura, and he stayed close to the carriage without moving an inch.
"My dear." Yu Jiang stared at Lou Ji with her beautiful fox eyes, and clearly saw the sweat on his forehead. Was he nervous?
"Jiang, Jiang Jiang..." Lou Ji pressed the tip of his tongue against his back teeth, his expression still tense as he lowered his head and responded.
After waking up last night, he lay in bed tossing and turning, unable to sleep. As soon as he closed his eyes, he saw that enchanting girl, with her big, watery eyes, clinging to him all the time, whispering sweet nothings to him, making him...
He really couldn't relieve his restlessness, so he could only... secretly take away Jiang's clothes and do that.
Lou Ji's cheeks flushed slightly, the corners of his drooping eyes were tinged with a sickly blush, his thin lips were tightly pursed, and he looked solemn.
"You are so pretty." Jiang supported her chin with her small hand, curled her lips and chuckled as she said with curved eyebrows.
“…”
Lou Ji tightened his grip on the reins. He coughed twice, looked straight ahead, and said, "The wind's strong. Don't stick your head out, or you'll catch a cold."
It was just the beginning of autumn, and the morning breeze was chilly. The carriage was moving at a moderate speed, neither fast nor slow, but Jiang still felt a bit bumpy even though he was sitting on a thick blanket.
She turned her head proudly and snorted, and just as she shrank into the carriage, Jiang Yingyue, who was riding a horse, glanced at the carriage coldly with disdain on her face, and a hint of gloating. Lou Ji sensed her movement, slowly raised his eyelids and looked at Jiang Yingyue coldly.
His dark and gloomy pupils were ice-cold and without a trace of emotion. The way he looked at her was like looking at a pile of rotten meat.
"Hiss..." Jiang Yingyue's scalp felt numb, and she felt as if the blood in her body was flowing backwards, as if she was falling into an ice cellar.
Only when Lou Ji nonchalantly averted his gaze did Jiang Yingyue finally let out a breath of foul air. Her breathing was disordered. She lowered her head in panic and licked her lips nervously.
The young master shouldn't have noticed, right?
Just as he was lost in thought, the carriage suddenly began to shake.
娾 Jiang raised his eyelids and looked at the swaying side wall with interest. He tilted his head, as if thinking about something. It seemed that Jiang Yingyue had taken action?
Was it just something that was done to the carriage?
The carriage's movement became increasingly unstable.
The next second, a panicked voice rang out from the carriage: "The reins! The reins are about to break!!!"
If the reins are broken and the horse is out of control, the carriage will overturn even when it is traveling at high speed. If the carriage overturns, it is not certain whether the person will live or die, but he will definitely be seriously injured!
Lou Ji was suddenly startled.
Immediately afterwards, more than a dozen men in black appeared out of nowhere and almost instantly engaged in a fight with Lou Ji, Jiang Yingyue, and Yan Xi!
The coachman was terrified, his eyes filled with fear. He swallowed and knew that he could not control the carriage, so he closed his eyes, kicked his legs and jumped down.
The moment the driver jumped off the car, a pair of slender, snow-white hands stretched out and immediately grasped the reins. Her face was tense, and when she glanced to the side, she saw ten people entangled with Lou Ji. She showed a pitiful expression: "My dear, my dear, save me..."
As soon as he finished speaking, the horse neighed and moved forward at a faster speed. The whole carriage was shaking and it seemed that it could overturn at any time!
However, Yu Jiang had a calm expression as he headed towards the cliff in the northwest direction.
Lou Ji's face was gloomy and bloodthirsty. Seeing the carriage gradually disappearing from his sight, he could no longer remain calm. He drew out the Qingxuan Jade Sword and almost instantly slit the throats of the ten people and kicked them away!
He started to chase after him!
"Young Master! Young Master, save me!" Jiang Yingyue's eyes widened and she hurriedly stopped him!
Lou Ji didn't even pause, and he flashed and chased after the carriage desperately!
Hurry up, faster!!!
Jiang Jiang, wait for me!
