Feng Guang quickly crouched back into the bushes, not even daring to swat the mosquitoes. Unfortunately, the person walking towards them step by step was none other than Qi Chang'an.
Feng Guang held her breath, not daring to even breathe loudly. She unconsciously gripped the hem of her skirt, nervously watching Qi Chang'an walk step by step towards the deep pit that had been hidden by fallen leaves.
Qi Chang'an walked at a leisurely pace, as if taking a stroll in a garden. He was unaware of the danger ahead and maintained his pace. Under the watchful eye of the girl hidden in the bushes, he safely passed through the dangerous area covered with fallen leaves.
Nothing unexpected happened.
What happened?
The scenery was fleeting. Once Qi Chang'an's figure disappeared on the road, she stood up from the bushes, feeling disappointed but mostly surprised.
"That Third Senior Brother... he's not slacking off for me, is he?" She stamped her foot and walked over. "I knew it! This guy only cares about beauty treatments and is getting more and more perfunctory when it comes to me!"
Before Wan Ting fell in love with dressing up, he was a straight man with impeccable morals. He would always happily accept any requests from Feng Guang. But ever since he fell in love with cosmetics, he has devoted himself to these things that are considered girly. Not only has he stopped caring about Feng Guang, but he has also spent much less time with his two senior brothers.
Feng Guang secretly vowed to settle accounts with Wan Ting. She hadn't even finished the things he was asked to do, so why was he still sleeping in beauty sleep?
Just as Feng Guang took a step forward, her foot slipped and she fell downwards. She instinctively cried out and soon landed on the ground.
Fallen leaves covered her, but she didn't bother to get up. When she opened her eyes and came to her senses, she only felt a sore back. It took her a long time to recover before she sat up, supporting her aching back. Looking at the full moon hanging high above the cave entrance, she realized that she had fallen into the pit that Wan Ting had dug. She remembered that, fearing that Qi Chang'an would be too strong to escape, she had specifically asked Wan Ting to dig it much deeper.
Is she... setting herself up for a trap?
Just as Feng Guang was still in a daze, a figure appeared at the cave entrance. He stood against the light, tall and elegant in the moonlight, which made him look even more handsome.
“Qi…Qi Chang’an…” Feng Guang stammered out the name.
Qi Chang'an, looking down at her, smiled politely and said, "Miss Xia, we meet again."
"You...I..." She hesitated for a long time before finally managing to stammer, "Why did you walk past without any problems, but I fell down!"
Qi Chang'an smiled and said, "Learning to observe the surrounding environment is the most basic skill that martial artists must master. Miss Xia, one should always be wary of others, but never have the intention to harm them."
"Me!" she gritted her teeth. "You bastard!"
Qi Chang'an wasn't angry. "I escaped a disaster, so how did that make me a bastard?"
His relaxed tone really showed that he was in a good mood.
Isn't that great? The person who wanted him to fall into the pit ended up falling into the pit himself. If it were anyone else, wouldn't they be in a bad mood?
Feng Guang felt more and more aggrieved. She knew that Qi Chang'an was skilled in martial arts, but she never expected that he could walk through the cave entrance that was only covered with a layer of fallen leaves.
Her fall not only messed up her hair, but also stained her exquisite and expensive clothes. A young lady who was originally dressed elegantly suddenly became so disheveled. Her aggrieved expression made her look rather pitiful.
