The next morning, as dawn broke, the firelight in the temple was gradually replaced by the first rays of sunlight.
Yu Qianqian lay on her side facing the door with her eyes closed, as she slept in as usual. Little Snowball was also sleeping soundly in her arms.
She had originally planned to wait until the sun was high in the sky before opening her eyes, but today, just as she was still drowsy, she vaguely heard a voice in her ear: "Qianqian, Qianqian, wake up, we should go."
Su Yu's voice was very soft, and she called her several times but received no response.
Since last night, they've been keeping him busy all night, keeping him company, chatting with him, sleeping with him, and keeping watch over him. Su Yu, who is known as a "three-accompaniment" person, was forced to take on all the hard work.
He sat down on the spot, looking at the two people, a human and a fox, who were wrapped in his clothes and fast asleep with their heads tilted to one side. He shook his head and sighed helplessly. It seemed that these two little guys really got along well. It was absurd that they were different kinds of creatures, yet their sleeping postures were so similar.
Su Yu pondered carefully. There were obviously many suspicious things about the bandits she encountered on the way yesterday, but as clever as she was, she didn't mention them at all. This meant that she was really prepared to leave the mess to her.
He, who was originally an observer, is now the only one who is worried about all sorts of unexpected situations, and he really is worried about them.
He had worried all night and barely dared to close his eyes, and then secretly went to the neighborhood to scout out the situation early this morning. But this guy was fine; no matter what he did, he remained unmoved, as if nothing had happened.
Leaning back lazily, Su Yu took a deep breath against the wall, intending to take this opportunity to rest. However, as soon as he closed his eyes, he vaguely heard a series of chaotic footsteps outside, along with several strange curses, gradually approaching from afar.
"Boss, I saw those two bastards run off in this direction with my own eyes. We should search the area carefully, that's the right way."
"You all need to search carefully, make sure you don't miss any corner. If that woman gets away, and Prime Minister Li blames us, none of us can afford to be punished!"
Prime Minister Li, could it be...?
The thought of this moment startled him. Without waiting for Yu Qianqian to wake up, he quickly picked her up and the fox together, then quietly hid near the corner of the door, waiting for the other party to approach him.
Su Yu remained calm on the surface, but several thoughts were racing through her mind. Since these people were so blatant in their pursuit, it was enough to prove that they had figured out Yu Qianqian's background. Knowing that her identity was so unusual, they still dared to poison her. Only powerful officials in the court would have such courage.
No matter who the other party is, this time we will not allow Yu Qianqian to be harmed in the slightest.
At this moment, all that could be heard was the wind blowing from the nearby forest, carrying with it the rustling of flying sand and falling leaves. The white-robed young man, standing quietly in a corner of the ruins, had a slightly somber expression. He listened intently as the footsteps drew closer, and his hands gradually clenched into fists beneath his sleeves.
Outside the door, as the footsteps grew closer, several henchmen in black leather coats gradually appeared before them!
As they approached the temple gate, they peeked inside cautiously, but failed to notice that the two sides were only inches apart!
They were on guard against each other at all times, ready to shoot, like a close collision between gods and demons, about to annihilate lives with an aura that ordinary people could not avoid!
