“Great!”
Nan Chiyou smiled as bright as the stars.
Murong Qing had never seen such a smile before.
“If Mother receives my letter, she will come to bring me home.”
As he heard that Nan Chiyou was leaving, Murong Qing’s heart tightened. He looked at the young girl in front of him and wanted to say something, but he choked after seeing her smile.
‘Who am I to ask Maiden Xia Xia to stay? I’ve no right to stop her.’
Therefore, Murong Qing’s eyes dimmed as he took one last look at Nan Chiyou and turned to leave.
The wolf king glanced at Murong Qing, and a cold light flashed in its stunning eyes.
Its gaze was so cold that it could send a chill through one’s body.
However, soon, it withdrew its gaze and looked at Nan Chiyou again gently.
“Ah Ming, when the time comes, would you like to come home with me?” Nan Chiyou looked at it expectantly.
Somehow, she was actually a little reluctant to part with the wolf king.
“Mhm.”
‘In the future, I will make a home wherever you go.
‘I will devote all of my life to protect you.’
Nan Chiyou smiled again brightly after she heard that the wolf king would follow her back.
“There are many female wolves in my house. Ah Ming, you can pick anyone to be your wife.”
The wolf king’s face suddenly darkened, seemingly full of displeasure written on his face.
Nan Chiyou noticed the change of the wolf king; she was stunned and asked, “Do you not like female wolves and prefer male wolves? No! There are fewer male wolves in our manor, not enough for you to pick one.”
The wolf king was speechless.
Its eyes changed color, and only after a second did he utter the words.
“I don’t like any of them.”
“Oh…” Nan Chiyou was a little lost. “Then, what do you like?”
‘I only like you…’
The wolf king did not say it out loud; its eyes darkened. “It’s late. If you’re hungry, you can have the meal now.”
Nan Chiyou froze, seeing that the wolf king did not want to discuss this matter; she pouted and said, “Ah Ming, you are a great wolf. I will find a good female wolf for you later.”
‘Ah Ming is so gentle. There must be countless female wolves who would also like it.’
Nan Chiyou put her hand on her cheek. ‘If Ah Ming doesn’t like it, I’ll find the male wolves for it… Just like Mother’s snow wolf.’
However, before Nan Chiyou had time to think more, the wolf king bit her dress and dragged her toward the backyard.
In the past few days, Nan Chiyou stayed there in peace, and the empress did not come to trouble her, but she always dreamed of a very handsome young man every night.
If she had not been sure she had not seen the young man before, perhaps, she would have thought it was not a dream…
It was just that the man looked too beautiful… Like a painting of a good-looking young man.
It made her feel so unreal every time she saw his face in her dream.
Even after she woke up, she would still remember his beauty.
Moreover, she noticed that there was something wrong with Ah Bao these few days. It seemed like it would always stare at the wolf king resentfully.
