Chapter 48 The Paranoid Emperor's Bird in His Palm 20



He even disguised himself as a guard to approach her...

Mo Yan held the reins, his voice cold, his sharp eyes fixed on the young man.

"His Majesty is looking for you. He told me how you were kidnapped by bandits. But Mianmian, have you ever thought about why Qi Wuyuan was able to arrive in time to save you?"

The man's words were gentle and persuasive, and he did not directly expose the boy's trick.

Instead, let the girl discover for herself how hypocritical a person she is trusting is.

Ruan Mian took two steps back and recalled the details that she had previously overlooked.

Ah Wu, isn’t it just one of the characters in his name?

When we first met, he said he was Aisha's guard and was lost.

But that stern appearance and temperament are not what a servant would have.

She even mistakenly thought that the wolf totem on the boy's neck was something that all Mobei people had.

Qi Wuyuan was unusually flustered, "Sister, can you please listen to my explanation?"

The girl's face was as pale as paper, and her thick black eyelashes kept trembling.

"Liar, he's a bad guy, you're a liar, you're both bad people."

Even at this point, the girl could only utter a few pitiful curse words that were not considered swear words.

She was too dumb and too easily deceived.

She didn't realize that the bandits didn't dare to hurt her because they were following Qi Wuyuan's orders.

Mo Yan sneered. He was just a wolf cub who had not grown up. He wanted to snatch people from him. How ridiculous.

"Mianmian, come up, let's go."

What the man didn't expect was that the girl's psychology was too fragile. After experiencing so many ups and downs, she was like a piece of glass that could be easily broken.

Ruan Mian timidly grabbed her collar and stepped back. The cold wind swirling up from the bottom of the cliff blew the girl's black hair, and her dark eyes were filled with tears.

"I don't want to go back..."

Qi Wuyuan looked at the girl's feet, his eyes suddenly changed, filled with panic.

"Sister, I was wrong. Can you come over here?"

Mo Yan also discovered that something was wrong. The delicate little guy seemed to be irritated by the successive blows.

Glancing at the thousand-foot cliff behind the girl, the man's breathing stagnated, and he quickly dismounted and walked over.

"Mianmian, listen to me, stand still."

When the girl saw them coming towards her, she thought they were going to take her back by force, so she stepped back in fear.

The mud under the boots became soft and cracked.

They both yelled at her at the same time, "Don't move!"

It was too late. Once cracks appeared in the rocks that had been weathered for years, they would break in an instant.

Ruan Mian's body suddenly fell down, and she didn't even have time to make a sound.

The whistling cold wind lingered along the girl's graceful falling figure.

The girl's robe fluttered in the wind, and the branches growing from the cliff edge scratched her clothes, leaving her delicate skin suddenly covered with countless dense wounds.

Am I going to die here?

The girl was still falling, her arms, as smooth as cream, were scratched by the thorns, leaving bloody marks. It hurt so much...

She closed her eyes and waited quietly for death.

The delicate body was embraced by someone, and the man jumped down with her.

Hot breaths splattered against the side of her face.

"Mianmian, don't be afraid, I'm here."

Mo Yan used his body to block the countless pieces of stone from cutting her and the thorns from entanglement, and his black robe was torn into rags.

His handsome face was covered with scars of varying sizes, and drops of blood gathered and dripped onto the girl's chin.

Her eyes were filled with guilt.

The man can also spare some energy to comfort the frightened girl.

"Don't be afraid, it doesn't hurt."

Just after he finished speaking, he couldn't suppress a painful groan from his throat.

The man's legs were pierced by the branches, leaving a bloody mess.

Ruan Mian couldn't see where he was injured and was so panicked that she didn't know what to do.

"Mianmian, be good and don't look."

Due to excessive blood loss, his voice became weaker and weaker, and his thin lips were pursed.

Mo Yan suddenly tightened the girl's waist and changed their positions, so that he was on the bottom.

"puff!"

The two fell into the icy lake. The man acted as a buffer and took the greatest damage, while the girl was only choked.

"Ahem, Mo Yan, are you okay?"

He forced a smile into his lips.

"I'm fine."

After swimming ashore, the man could no longer hold on and half-knelt on the ground.

A broken branch had pierced his right leg, and the bone could be vaguely seen through the bloody wound.

Soon the ground was dyed red with blood.

Ruan Mian carried a man who was several times heavier than herself and looked for a place to rest.

This place is so remote that there is not a single house to be seen. As the sky gets darker, wild animals are still roaming around.

Just when she was exhausted and could hardly walk anymore, she found a cave.

The blood was still flowing out, Mo Yan's eyes were too heavy to open, and his body was getting colder.

"You...you don't die, okay?"

The girl stumbled and collected a lot of dry firewood from the nearby area. During this period, she was responsible for lighting the stove in the imperial kitchen, and she was quite skilled in making fire.

Soon the flames started and the girl lay on the ground blowing on it.

"Hurry up, burn it quickly."

The man, wearing a tattered black robe, leaned against the wall of the cave. His thin lips were so pale that there was no trace of blood. He was so cold that he began to tremble.

"Mianmian..."

Ruan Mian touched his forehead, but it was already cold.

The girl took off her light pink robe and covered the man who was close to coma with it. His consciousness began to become blurred.

"Don't fall asleep."

The girl looked at the branch sticking out of his leg, which was tangling with flesh and blood. Should she pull it out?
