"Just wait for me, I won't let you go." Guo Zheng said, and left with her maid.
Xiaohu looked at Ma Lanxi, who had transformed into a great beauty, so beautiful that she could be described as stunning as to make fish sink to the bottom of their chests, geese fall to the ground, and the moon hide in shame.
Looking at the person he missed, he felt his heart pounding. He was so nervous that his clenched fists were sweating.
"Miss, let's go?" Xiao Cui said to Ma Lanxi.
"Okay!" After saying that, she followed Xiao Cui away. When she passed by Xiao Hu, she felt a sense of familiarity.
Xiaohu also looked at Ma Lanxi intently, hoping to engrave her figure in his bones and have something to think about in the lonely days to come.
"What are you looking at? If you look at my lady again, I will dig out your eyes, you lecher." Xiao Cui saw a strange young man staring at her lady and immediately cursed him viciously.
"Xiao Cui, don't be rude!" Ma Lanxi scolded Xiao Cui. Even if the young master thought she was wrong, she couldn't say such vicious words.
"Miss, look at his eyes, they're almost glued to you. Shouldn't such a scoundrel be scolded?" Xiao Cui said aggrievedly. She was only doing this for the young lady's good, but she still scolded her, which really made her angry.
"I'm sorry! I've offended you, please forgive me, young lady! Even though I was wrong, your maid shouldn't say such vicious words. People who don't know might think that you taught me to do so. Isn't this discrediting you?" Xiaohu felt that Xiaocui was not suitable to be around Lan Xi. Such a person would easily offend others and cause trouble for Lan Xi.
"Please forgive me, sir. Xiao Cui didn't mean it. She may have said that in a moment of impatience. Xiao Cui, apologize to you, sir!" Ma Lanxi pleaded with Xiao Cui and asked her to apologize.
"Miss, what did I do wrong? He was staring at you like a climber, so I scolded him. Not only did you not help me, but you also asked me to apologize to him." Xiao Cui tried hard to defend herself.
"Miss, forget it. Since she is unwilling to apologize, it's fine. I am also wrong. I was the one who offended her first." Xiaohu said that asking Xiao Cui to apologize was not his purpose. His purpose was to hope that Lan Xi could see Xiao Cui's true character and stay away from her.
"Xiao Cui, you have to understand that I am your mistress. Do my words not work and you don't have to listen to me?" Ma Lanxi scolded Xiao Cui for the second time.
Seeing the young lady's anger, Xiao Cui was afraid that the young lady would send her to the eldest young master, so she quickly apologized to Xiao Hu.
"Sir, I'm sorry! I was wrong. Please forgive me."
"Okay, I forgive your apology! I hope you can remember the lesson this time, control your temper, and don't cause trouble for your young lady." Xiaohu said to Xiaocui.
"You are right, sir. I will remember it!" said Xiao Cui.
"Miss, I have something to do, so I'll take my leave first!" Xiaohu said and left.
Ma Lanxi looked at the figure going away, wondering why she felt familiar with it.
Xiaohu had always known there were eyes watching him from behind, and he knew they belonged to Lan Xi. He was so nervous his heart felt like it was about to burst. Finally free of those eyes, he collapsed to the ground, stroking his pounding heart. It took a long time for the pain to subside. Six years later, his heart still beat wildly for her, his heart still pounding for her.
He knew that he liked Lan Xi and loved her. He didn't know what Lan Xi's reaction would be when she knew that he was the enemy who wanted to kill her father. Would it be hatred or indifference? No matter which one it was, he couldn't bear it.
He didn't want revenge anymore, he wanted to give up, but could he really let go of his parents' tragic deaths and the dozens of lives lost in the Tong Mansion? Xiaohu slumped against the wall in agony, drawing strange looks from passersby.
After the pain subsided, he began to calm down. He could never marry her because he was unworthy. A lowly servant had no right to marry. Since they were destined not to love each other, not to be together, he should quickly get his revenge and return to Taohua Village. There, he would have a large group of brothers to accompany him, and he would not be alone for the rest of his life. But why did his heart still hurt so much, so much that it made him unable to breathe?
Xiaohu calmed down and returned to the inn.
After dinner, Xiaohu went to bed. In the middle of the night, he had a dream. In it, he killed Ma Junhao with his own hands, avenging his parents and the dozens of lives lost in the Tong family. Just as he was overjoyed at his revenge, he turned and saw Lan Xi standing behind him, glaring at him with a vicious look, as if she wanted to eat him. That look frightened him, and he felt a panic attack, as if something bad was about to happen.
Sure enough, Lan Xi screamed hysterically: "Xiao Hu, I hate you, I just hope we will never see each other again in this life!" After saying that, he picked up a knife from the ground and stabbed it into his heart.
At that moment, Xiaohu was blank and cried miserably.
"No!"
Suddenly Xiaohu was awakened. Thinking about the dream he had just had, it was so realistic that his heart was still beating fast.
Regardless of whether the dream was true or not, he regretted it. He didn't want to seek revenge himself, and he didn't want to see Lan Xi's eyes. After talking to his aunt tomorrow and asking her to divorce Ma Junhao, he would contact his intelligence network and ask them to help him get the evidence to the prefectural government for a trial. He decided to send Ma Junhao to prison, where he could confess his sins to his parents.
After figuring it out, Xiaohu couldn't sleep anymore and stayed awake until dawn.
