Chapter 21
Chuntao stood at the door, sobbing uncontrollably.
"Miss, please come back soon!"
Su Wanxing patted her head and agreed.
Aunt Wu handed a bag of dry food to Shijiu.
"Miss, you must keep your promise! After you left, I've had to use two spoonfuls less rice when I cook."
"Okay! Learn some new dishes while I'm gone, and wait for me to come back to eat them."
"Um"
Butler Chen didn't say a word, he just nodded to Su Wanxing.
Su Wanxing mounted her horse with the help of Shijiu.
"You should all go back."
Every separation in this world is filled with tears.
Su Wanxing, unwilling to see him again, turned and rode away.
After leaving the city, Su Wanxing glanced back from afar. Although she had only lived here for half a year, she was filled with longing for this place.
"Owner?"
"let's go"
"Okay, I've planned the route. We'll rest at an inn in two days, and the rest of the time we might have to sleep on the streets."
"I'm not as delicate as you think."
Because Su Wanxing didn't know how to ride a horse, the horse could only move forward slowly. It wasn't until night that Shijiu found a secluded place, laid out a carpet, and let Su Wanxing sleep.
"And what about you?"
"I keep watch for my master."
"Then wake me up if you're sleepy, don't try to stay awake alone."
"good"
As expected, Nineteen kept watch until daytime. When Su Wanxing woke up and looked at the exhausted Nineteen, she asked...
Are you sleepy?
Not sleepy
Nineteen finished speaking and yawned.
"Go get some sleep."
"No need, we still have a long way to go."
I'm afraid you'll fall off the horse.
Nineteen had no choice but to lie down obediently. Su Wanxing placed Nineteen's head on her lap and covered his eyes.
It wasn't until noon that Nineteen slowly opened her eyes.
"woke up?"
"Has Master eaten yet?"
"ate a little"
Nineteen immediately opened the package, took out some dry food, and handed it to Su Wanxing.
"Master, eat more; traveling is very tiring."
"good"
Two days later, the two arrived at a post station.
"Boss, how much for two rooms?"
"Two ounces"
"Two ounces? Why is it so expensive?"
"Miss, please check carefully, this is an official post station."
Nineteen stepped forward and paid one tael of silver.
"Just open one room, and remember to feed our horses."
"Alright, sir, please go upstairs to the second room on the left."
Nineteen picked up her luggage and went upstairs.
"It's a bit small."
"It's alright, Master. We'll stay in the best rooms when we get to Phoenix City."
"Um"
"Master, you rest first, I'll go get you some hot water."
Aren't you tired?
"I won't be tired if my master is well-rested."
After a while, Nineteen hurried upstairs.
"Master, there's no more hot water. You should take a shower first."
"And what about you?"
"It's okay if I don't wash."
Su Wanxing untied Shijiu's belt.
Let's go together then.
Nineteen swallowed hard and immediately began to undress.
Calm waters cannot nurture excellent sailors; it is the constant exposure to raging waves that truly tests a sailor.
How do you still have the energy?
"As long as I'm with my master, I have inexhaustible energy."
"There might be someone sleeping next to you."
"Then the only solution is for the master to lower their voice."
"you!"
As night deepened, Su Wanxing was exhausted. Nineteen carried her to bed, and the two fell asleep in each other's arms.
The next day, Su Wanxing woke up earlier than Shijiu, which was unusual for her.
Su Wanxing lay quietly beside Nineteen, watching him.
Nineteen, you may meet many people like me in your life, but I will never meet someone who treats me like you did. I thought I would have a harem in this era, and the thought of that kind of life was so exciting. But since I've been with you, I've found that I can't seem to accommodate anyone else. What if all of this is just a dream? I can't imagine how devastated I would be if I woke up one day and found you weren't by my side. Nineteen, will you stay with me for the rest of your life?
Nineteen also woke up from her sleep and found Su Wanxing staring at her.
"Master, what's wrong?"
"Nineteen is great, I love watching it."
Nineteen hugged Su Wanxing tightly.
"Nineteen loves to listen to what the master says."
Su Wanxing slowly crawled into bed.
"Owner?"
An unprecedented sensation instantly numbed Nineteen's entire body. His hands gripped the blankets tightly, his Adam's apple bobbing up and down. The usually arrogant Nineteen had vanished, as if he were being choked. He kept calling out for his master, his eyes gradually blurring as if veiled by white mist, and he was panting heavily.
"Owner"
"Master, a little more!"
"Master, it'll be soon."
Tears streamed down her face at the end. Nineteen felt as if she had been reborn, as if she were in a fairyland, with only Su Wanxing on her mind.
Su Wanxing slowly leaned over and lay down on Nineteen's arm.
Seeing Nineteen's appearance, Su Wanxing couldn't help but laugh.
Nineteen stared blankly at Su Wanxing for a long time before finally speaking.
"Master, could you come once a day?"
"Every day? You're dreaming."
"I will repay my master as well."
"We'll see how you perform then."
Nineteen immediately crawled into bed.
Nineteen put in even more effort than Su Wanxing, so she had to cover her mouth tightly to keep herself from making a sound.
Nineteen, feeling too stuffy, threw off the covers.
The faint sound reached Nineteen's ears, prompting him to move even faster.
"nineteen!"
Su Wanxing trembled all over, as if she had lost consciousness for a moment.
Nineteen covered Su Wanxing with the blanket, put on her clothes, and went to get the food.
