Chapter Four

A raging fire seemed to surge within his dantian, engulfing everything in its path, bringing a knife-like pain to his pure meridians. Cheng Zongyang's eyes were tightly shut, sweat pouring down his body. A bluish tinge crossed his bloodless face, then it turned crimson.

His once brilliant qi wheel was now chaotic, rusting and turning intermittently, teetering on the brink of collapse. Instinctively, Cheng Zongyang clenched his teeth. A tiny blood vessel in his brain suddenly burst, oozing blood. Then another one, this time below his brow bone, flowed from the corner of his eye like tears of blood. Suddenly, a cool,

slightly aloof aura invaded his body, drawing his out-of-control true qi back into his dantian. After an unknown amount of time, the churning qi sea gradually calmed down. The silvery-white fish curled up in the center of his qi wheel, seemingly merging with it, and the blood clots in his brain were gradually absorbed.

"Girl, rest!"

"I'm not tired."

"You've been up for two days and you're still not tired?"

"Ugh, so annoying!"

"Okay, okay, don't be annoyed, don't be annoyed. I'll get you a bowl of porridge."

Old Zhu took a few steps and then turned back. "Girl, it's not good for you to take care of him every day. Little Chengzi absorbed the death energy of Old Ghost Fen, and now he's yang-dominant and yin-deficient. If you..."

"No."

"Girl, why are you so stubborn? You two are as close as one person. Even if his soul is attached to you, he won't suffer any loss!"

Xiao Zi said softly, "I want him to be alright."

Old Zhu patted her head and sighed, "Silly girl, if you hadn't destroyed your natal Jade Cup Bell Flower, you wouldn't have suffered so much."

Xiao Zi said lightly, "I'm going on a long journey. If someone takes advantage of me, I'll suffer a great loss."

Old Zhu sighed deeply. This girl had already decided to leave the Southern Wilderness after her fifteenth birthday to go to the Six Dynasties to find her bastard father; but he didn't expect Xiao Zi to be so decisive, not only killing her own mother with her own hands but also destroying the blooming Jade Cup Bell Flower.

Nurturing the Jade Cup Bell Flower with one's own spirit is a secret technique passed down in the Southern Wilderness. If the Jade Cup Bell Flower is destroyed by its spirit owner while in full bloom, it signifies a lifetime of loneliness, because any man who has intercourse with her will lose his soul in ecstasy.

This girl has always been independent-minded. Despite her young age and stunning beauty, this is the only way she can protect herself when traveling alone. Who knew she would encounter that young man surnamed Cheng? This limited ability becomes an insurmountable chasm between them. Old Man Zhu, watching from the side, felt a pang of sorrow and could only sigh: Fate is truly cruel.

"Girl, how many of your Five Elemental Stones are you missing?"

"I already have the Blood Jade, Yellow Spring Jade, and Azure Amber, but I'm still missing the Profound Water Jade and the Dragon-Shaped Star."

Old Man Zhu squatted by the bedside and said slowly, "The Profound Water Jade is fine, but the Dragon-Shaped Star is extremely rare. I had one when I was a child, but I guess it's long gone now."

Little Purple laughed, "With four, you can change Soul Searching to Soul Transfer. If he really wants it, I'll just give him my soul."

"You guys, all you think about is this trivial matter!" Old Man Zhu became annoyed. "I'll teach him the Boy's Kung Fu tomorrow!

Let him think nonsense!"

"No way." Little Purple said, "I like his hard, sturdy look, it's so impressive."

Old Man Zhu was so angry that his beard stood on end, and he walked away with his hands behind his back, pouting.

Xiao Zi leaned down and whispered to Cheng Zongyang, "You big dummy, you have to take good care of yourself..."

Cheng Zongyang stretched, shook his stiff neck, and mumbled, "How did I fall asleep?"

"You slept for two whole days."

"Two days?" Cheng Zongyang sat up abruptly and asked, "Did the Yun family send anyone?"

"They did."

Cheng Zongyang was overjoyed. "What did they say? Even if they're angry, if they come to our door to yell at us, then this matter has a chance!"

"They sent two horses over."

Cheng Zongyang excitedly slapped the side of the bed. "To express goodwill! Did they return the favor?"

"No need." Xiao Zi laughed. "Those two horses were hacked to death. It was terrible, hacked into dozens of pieces.

Boss Cheng, you had to pay back dozens of gold coins."

Cheng Zongyang's smile froze on his face, and he didn't speak for a long time.

"You big dummy, you even got turned away when you proposed." Xiao Zi wrung out a handkerchief to wipe his face, then examined him for a moment. "You're not that ugly, so why doesn't the Yun family like you?"

Cheng Zongyang flopped onto the bed, hands behind his head, and said, "It's a little troublesome." "

She's willing to marry you, you're willing to marry her, and you have a relationship with the Yun family. At most, you'll get a scolding, what trouble could there be?"

"Old Zhu likes to eavesdrop, didn't he tell you?"

"He didn't hear."

Cheng Zongyang sighed, remembering the magic array Yun Cangfeng used. "The Yun family is willing, but I can't meet their conditions."

"You're so stupid."

Cheng Zongyang said helplessly, "You're right."

"Boss Cheng, you should hurry up and get married."

"Why?"

Seeing Xiao Zi point to his dantian, Cheng Zongyang understood. "Damn it! I knew it was overflowing true yang! Getting married isn't about that kind of thing, you brat, you just watched me die and refused to save me?"

Xiao Zi laughed, "It's none of their business, why don't you go find Yan'er?"

"Is she doing well in Lin'an? Even if I grow old, will I still be able to reach her?"

After chatting with Xiao Zi for a while, Cheng Zongyang felt much more relaxed. He got up and asked, "What time is it?"

"It's past noon."

"Hurry up and get me something to eat." Cheng Zongyang rubbed his hands together eagerly. "I'll eat my fill before I go to the Yun family's gate! Sincerity can move mountains! I don't believe the Yun family can keep Yao'er unmarried forever."

True to his word, Cheng Zongyang ate a hearty meal and, full of energy, took Ao Run to the Yun family's fortified village. Fu An hadn't had a chance to speak to him yet. He was stroking his beard as he watched Cheng Zongyang's retreating figure and said, "Young Master Cheng, you're rushing around like this. What important matter are you handling?"

Liu Zhao said, "It seems to be a big deal… Steward Fu, the Grand Commandant ordered a reply every three days, and it's time again tomorrow. Should I take some men to the mountains to check on the young master?"

"What are you looking at? Say something nice." Fu An sat down and calmly brewed a strong cup of tea. "I think the Grand Commandant made the right choice in choosing this mentor. With these few months of training, he can guarantee the Grand Commandant's family wealth for three generations."

Liu Zhao said, "The Grand Commandant is really good to his son. Even if he were his own son, there wouldn't be many like him."

Fu An didn't reply, but just sipped his strong tea. Then he said, "Everyone came out here supposedly to do business, but it's more relaxing than being at home. Old Ao even paid out of his own pocket to treat everyone to drinks. Don't just sit around doing nothing. After the roof is finished, see what other work needs to be done. Don't just sit and eat for free. Also, catch some fish and get some wine. Tonight, we'll have a drink with Young Master Cheng."

Fu An's carefully prepared food had gone cold before Cheng Zongyang returned. While he was pacing around in the courtyard, Cheng Zongyang was drinking in the wind in the fields.

This time, the Yun family didn't even put down the drawbridge. Cheng Zongyang, like a fool, stood under the wall, pleading with the guards, but they all remained expressionless, pretending not to hear him.

"This won't do, Chief Cheng," Ao Run leaned over. "How about... Old Ao gets a gong?"

"A gong? What gong?" Cheng Zongyang's voice was hoarse. Seeing that this trick wouldn't work, he simply said, "Go! Call everyone over!" "Great!" Ao Run said excitedly, "They all have their weapons! Let's storm in under the cover of night!"

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Cheng Zongyang said, "Call everyone over and build houses!"

Cheng Zongyang said through gritted teeth, "I'm living here! Let's see who can outlast whom!"

On the horizon at dusk, a dozen men worked together, first cutting branches from the forest to build a frame, then drawing water from the ditch, taking off their shirts, and bare-chested, mixing mud and building embankments on the bank. Cheng Zongyang didn't pick a spot either, starting work directly on the other side of the suspension bridge, setting up a makeshift hut, and incidentally blocking the only exit from the fortified village.

The people of the fortified village could no longer tolerate this. Not long after, the drawbridge, which had remained motionless, collapsed with a loud crash, and Yun Cangfeng emerged with his men, looking menacing. Cheng Zongyang hurriedly went to greet him with a fawning smile, saying, "Third Brother, it's been several days..."

Yun Cangfeng waved to his servants behind him, his face grim, and said

, "Tear it down!" Cheng Zongyang shouted at Ao Run and the others, "Didn't you hear what Third Master Yun said? Tear it down now!"

Ao Run had just finished trimming a tree branch when he heard his master's order. He stomped on the branch, snapping it in two, and yelled, "Tear it down! Tear it down! Tear it down!"

Before the Yun family servants could even lift a finger, the men quickly dismantled the newly erected roof frame.

Yun Cangfeng turned to leave, and Cheng Zongyang quickly followed, saying to Ao Run, "Make sure it's clean! If there's even the slightest impropriety, I won't forgive you!"

Ao Run loudly replied, "Yes!"

Cheng Zongyang smiled obsequiously, "Brother Yun..."

Yun Cangfeng, hands behind his back, ignored him completely, his eyes practically on his head. Although Cheng Zongyang felt awkward, he shamelessly followed closely behind, while the servants and guards looked around, pretending not to see him. When they reached the hall where they had met that day, Yun Xiufeng sat in the main seat, staring coldly at him. Cheng Zongyang, no longer caring about appearances, stepped forward and gave a grand entrance.

"Sixth Brother, Third Brother, um... how about Miss?"

Yun Xiufeng asked coldly. "Is Yue Shuang the one that Master Wang raised back then?"

Cheng Zongyang replied respectfully, "Yes."

"There are rumors that she is a descendant of Yue Ni. Is that true?"

"There's a five or six percent chance." Cheng Zongyang said cautiously, "But I married her personally, it has nothing to do with who her biological father is."

"Nothing to do with? Do you know how Yue Ni bullied my Yun family back then?" Yun Xiufeng said grimly, "Even my Yun family's ancestral glass shop was taken away by that scoundrel. Now, he's making Ru Yao share a husband with Yue Ni's daughter. How can I face my ancestors in the afterlife!" Cheng Zongyang cursed inwardly

: Yue Ni, you birdbrain! Look at the mess you've made! Fortunately, Cheng Zongyang knew that Yun Xiufeng was just venting. If the hatred was truly deep, the Yun family wouldn't have cooperated with Jiangzhou in the first place.

"Whether Miss Yue is truly the daughter of Commander Yue is still uncertain, but regardless of the truth, Commander Yue entrusted her to me back then, and I dare not abandon him,"

Yun Cangfeng said, trying to smooth things over. "What happened back then is in the past. In my opinion, we shouldn't hold our parents' grudges against our children."

Cheng Zongyang quickly added, "Third Brother is right."

Yun Xiufeng and Yun Cangfeng exchanged a glance; they were both nearly driven mad by their younger sister's situation. Initially, Yun Xiufeng wanted nothing more than to find that damned killer and bury him alive, but when Cheng Zongyang came to their door, Yun Xiufeng realized it was this guy who had done it! Although annoyed, Cheng Zongyang showed genuine sincerity, and Yun Xiufeng was somewhat tempted. In terms of talent, this kid, while not top-tier, was still passable. Besides, they had already done it all; what could they do if they didn't admit it? They had no choice but to accept it.

But this kid was pushing his luck; Ruyao hadn't even married into the family yet and he was already proposing to be a secondary wife—this was intolerable!

That day, after chasing that scoundrel away, Yun Xiufeng didn't sleep a wink, repeatedly scrutinizing the screen, fearing his sister would suffer if she married into the family. Two days passed without the boy showing up, making him uneasy: what if he didn't come? What would happen to his sister?

When the servants reported back, Young Master Cheng had returned, even building a hut in front of the gate as if he intended to stay permanently. Yun Xiufeng, while furious, secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

On the other hand, Yue Shuang as a secondary wife wasn't entirely unacceptable. No matter how illustrious Yue Pengju was in the past, Yue Shuang was now just an orphan with no family background to rely on; although she had the heroes of Xingyue Lake behind her, she wasn't family, and outsiders had no right to interfere in family matters.

Yun Xiufeng glared at Cheng Zongyang, finding the boy increasingly hateful. How could someone like him be worthy of his sister? He snorted coldly, "So be it! Yao'er will live in Lin'an, and the Song Kingdom's properties are her dowry, all of which she will manage. The two will greet each other as equal wives and address each other as sisters, but Yao'er, having married into the family first, will be the elder."

Who was older was very important to Yun Xiufeng, but to Cheng Zongyang it was completely irrelevant. The real trouble was… Cheng Zongyang, as if his face had been eaten by a dog, said with an idiotic smile, "There's one more."

Yun Xiufeng thought he had misheard, "What?"

"There's also Xiao Zi, who will also be my principal wife."

"Get out!"

The second marriage proposal was thus aborted.

On his third visit, Cheng Zongyang was driven out by Yun family servants with the force of the Great Southern Border Kingdom as soon as he approached the gate. Cheng Zongyang persisted, visiting a fourth time, a fifth time… finally meeting Yun Xiufeng again on his sixth visit.

Yun Xiufeng, his face grim, asked, "Xiao Zi? What's her surname? Where is she from?"

"Xiao Zi's surname is..." Cheng Zongyang wanted to say that Xiao Zi's surname was Yue, but the brat would definitely not agree, so he could only say, "She has no surname."

Yun Xiufeng's hands trembled. "She doesn't even have a surname! How dare you ask her to be a concubine with our Yao'er?" He slammed his hand on the table and shouted, "Get out!"

Once again, Cheng Zongyang, who had been driven out of the fortified village, was undeterred. The next day, at dawn, he washed his face and went back to the village with renewed vigor. This time, he changed into a new set of clothes and dressed like a wealthy man. Ao Run carried a large bundle and followed behind him. From the moment he entered the village, he offered a string of coins to everyone he met; from guards, servants, and maids to the children running around in the village, everyone received a share. With so much money being distributed, Cheng Zongyang's prestige in Yun Family Fortified Village soared, and the entire village was filled with the festive atmosphere of New Year's.

Cheng Zongyang, beaming, clasped his hands in greeting as he walked, repeatedly exclaiming, "May you prosper!" and "Congratulations!" His shameless manner made Yun Cangfeng want to beat him up. Luckily, he had sent Yun Danliu away yesterday, otherwise, he would have left the kid bloodied and dead in the street.

Finally, they entered the hall, only to have the door slam shut. Cheng Zongyang clasped his hands and greeted them, "Sixth Brother, Third Brother!"

Then, he obediently put on a smile, stood ramrod straight with his hands at his sides, and waited to be scolded.

This time, Yun Xiufeng already knew that Xiao Zi had followed him all the way from the Southern Wilderness. He didn't know how Yun Cangfeng had subtly hinted at it, but Sixth Master's mood was much calmer. "Since we've been through life and death together, I, Yun, am not an unfeeling person. How about this, we'll take her as a concubine in the future."

Cheng Zongyang remained silent, which Yun Xiufeng took as tacit agreement. He continued, "You are still young, don't indulge in beauty,"

his voice turning stern. "If you ever favor a concubine over your wife, I, Yun, will not forgive you!"

Cheng Zongyang raised his head, his smile unwavering, and said gently, "Sixth Brother, you don't know, that girl... is simply not cut out to be a concubine." He said sincerely, "Really, I'm not lying to you."

Yun Xiufeng, who considered himself to have done everything in his power, was surprised that this young man refused to budge. His face turned ashen, and he said, word by word, "Although our Yun family is not a noble or high-ranking family, we have a long and distinguished lineage. In the beginning, Wudu belonged to the State of Jin, and our ancestors cultivated the land here. When Emperor Wu of Han conquered the Jin Dynasty, the Jin court moved south, and our Yun family also crossed the river. Once the situation stabilized, we sent family members back to our homeland to safeguard our ancestral property. Wudu may have changed hands between the

Han and Jin dynasties, but our Yun family's ancestral property remains unchanged. Our Yun family has no sons who marry into the family, nor daughters who become concubines." Yun Xiufeng stood up and said, "Young Master Cheng, if you are sincere in marrying my younger sister, then treat her with the respect due to a principal wife. It is possible to discuss her as a secondary wife, but if you have any other requests, please be mindful of your words. I have said all I have to say. See him out."

"Chief Cheng," Ao Run said cautiously, "It's getting dark... Should we go back?"

After leaving the fortified village, Cheng Zongyang remained motionless, lost in thought like an old monk in meditation.

Ao Run asked again cautiously, and Cheng Zongyang finally snapped out of his daze. "It's dark?" He slapped his thigh. "Great!"

Ao Run was startled. "Boss Cheng, are you alright?"

"I'm fine!" Cheng Zongyang seemed to have made up his mind, a ruthless glint in his eyes. He took off his brand-new outer robe, revealing a pure black night suit.

While tightening the cuffs and trouser legs with a belt, Cheng Zongyang said, "Old Ao, go back to the city and find a long rope. Then, stand guard at the southeast corner of the city wall. If you hear any noise, throw the rope down."

"Boss Cheng, what are you doing? I get chills just listening to this."

Cheng Zongyang looked at the distant fortified village and uttered a sentence: "Haven't you heard of eloping?"

Cheng Zongyang didn't care about the difference between wives and concubines. He knew Xiao Zi didn't care either, but as long as the world cared, he wouldn't wrong Xiao Zi. He had long known that the Yun family might agree to Ruyao and Yueshuang being both principal wives, treating each other with the respect due to equal wives. However, the Yun family would never agree to a girl of unknown origin being on equal footing with Yun Ruyao. This was an intractable knot; the Yun family would not back down, and neither would he.

After several days of visiting, Cheng Zongyang took the opportunity to tour the Yun family's fortified village. The fortified village had two gates: a main gate to the south and a back gate slightly north of the east wall. Although the fortified village was built like a city, it was a time of peace, and the defenses were not particularly tight. With his current skills, ordinary moats and walls would not stop him.

During the day, Cheng Zongyang scattered money around and carefully observed the area again. The fortified village had nearly a thousand households. Besides the Yun family's sons and guests, there were household slaves who were practically the master's private property, or servants belonging to the master but somewhere between slaves and commoners. There were no tenant farmers; it was a monolithic community. When he was throwing money around, the Yun family didn't stop him. Only in the inner courtyard in the northeast corner was he stopped as soon as he approached. Inside was an exquisite pavilion, its doors and windows tightly shut despite the summer heat. Cheng Zongyang deduced that if Yun Ruyao was inside the fortress, she would definitely be imprisoned in this pavilion.

He and Yun Ruyao had met through a misunderstanding, and although their time together was short, the image of her, soft and delicate yet passionately fiery, wrapped in a fox fur coat, remained in his heart, becoming even clearer because of their separation. Cheng Zongyang patiently continued to visit, having already decided that if the Yun family refused his marriage proposal, he would secretly go to Yun Ruyao, abduct her, and then negotiate with the Yun family later.

Cheng Zongyang thought to himself, "Brother Yun, I'm sorry." He added in his mind, "I learned this from you: if my marriage proposal fails, I'll elope!"

Cheng Zongyang silently slipped into the moat, emerged from under the wall a moment later, and climbed onto the wall from a blind spot below the watchtower. Fortunately, cement wasn't widely available, and there were plenty of places on the wall to use for leverage. He listened patiently for a moment, and once the patrolling guards had passed, he slipped into the fortress.

The Yun family had hired many skilled guards, but the fortress was so large that the truly skilled ones were all closely protecting Yun Xiufeng. Cheng Zongyang avoided the main residence where Yun Xiufeng was located and went straight to the inner courtyard's attic.

A sliver of light shone from the small building, and Cheng Zongyang tiptoed to the eaves, only to find that the light was unusually bright. He hung upside down, peering through the pale green glass. The curtains inside were low, and he could vaguely see a bloated figure inside.

Cheng Zongyang felt a pang of guilt. Yun Ruyao had suffered from a cold poison, her blood and qi were insufficient, and she had to wear thick fur coats even in the height of summer. She had also miscarried because of his actions; it was a miracle she had survived. These past few days had truly been difficult for her.

A maid stood outside the tent, and on the table was the lamp he had sent. The two elder brothers of the Yun family were indeed very good to this youngest sister. Although they were furious, they still gave her the best things to use.

The maid was adding charcoal to the brazier, her face covered in sweat, and said, "Miss, it's late, you should rest early."

The beautiful woman inside the tent did not respond.

The maidservant chattered, "Miss, don't worry. I think that young master is absolutely determined. He comes every day at dawn, and no matter if Sixth Master or Third Master refuses to see him or curses him mercilessly, he doesn't get angry. He's so well-mannered. Also, Miss, you don't know, he brought a lot of coins when he came to the fort today. Everyone in the fort, regardless of age or gender, gave him a string of coins when they met him. Even I got a string! He has a good temper, is decent-looking, and comes from a wealthy family. If you marry him, Miss, you definitely won't suffer."

Yun Ruyao said softly, "I won't marry." After a moment, she whispered, "Even if I die, it's fine."

"Oh dear, Miss, why are you talking about life and death all of a sudden? Hehe, there was a funny story about him the other day." The maid chuckled and whispered, "The first time he came to our door, Third Master thought he was proposing to Miss Liu, so he called Miss Liu over and questioned her for a full half hour. When Miss Liu came out, her face was pale with anger, and she immediately had someone sharpen her knife..."

Only then did Cheng Zongyang realize why that day had taken so long. Cheng Zongyang also knew a little about Yun Cangfeng's feelings for him. Back in Jiankang, Brother Yun had tried to match him up with Yun Danliu. Once, when he was caught by Brother Yun having a secret rendezvous with Yun Ruyao, he was laughing like a big bad wolf. If Brother Yun had known the truth, he probably would have beaten him with a big bamboo stick back then.

An old woman's voice came from downstairs, "Miss, it's time to sleep."

The maid responded crisply, then dimmed the light and gently helped Yun Ruyao change, saying, "This luminous pearl is so convenient, it doesn't smell of smoke at all, and it can be turned on or off at will. The other day, when Young Master Cheng took it out, even Brother Gouzi was dumbfounded."

Yun Ruyao said, "Don't mention that Young Master Cheng..."

The maid quickly knelt down, "Miss, don't cry, I won't dare to say it again."

Cheng Zongyang waited for the maid to leave, but unexpectedly, while helping Yun Ruyao to bed, the maid actually opened the bedding and slept outside the tent.

This... Cheng Zongyang thought resentfully, the Yun family masters were probably trying to salvage the situation by doing this after the fact.

After patiently waiting for the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, Cheng Zongyang used a dagger to pry open the window, slipped inside, first sealed the maid's acupoints, and then rushed into the tent. He moved extremely lightly, but Yun Ruyao was not asleep and turned her face at the sound. In the pale moonlight, her snow-white face was wet with tears.

Cheng Zongyang felt a pang of sorrow and whispered, "Ruyao..."

Yun Ruyao stared at him blankly, as if in a dream. After a long while, she bit her lip, tears streaming down her face, and choked out in an almost stiff, unfamiliar tone, "Lord Xiao..."

Cheng Zongyang knelt by the bed, wanting to take her hand, but Yun Ruyao pulled away. She choked out, "Please, Lord Xiao, have some self-respect. I... am getting married."

"Who?"

"Young Master Cheng of Panjiang."

Cheng Zongyang said awkwardly, "That's me..."

Yun Ruyao trembled, her eyes blurred with tears as she looked up.

Cheng Zongyang said guiltily, "That day I knocked down your villain... it was too embarrassing, so I had to use the little fox as a shield..."

Yun Ruyao stared blankly at him.

"Later, I was afraid that if I explained, I would never see you again... and then..." Cheng Zongyang grasped her hand, "All the mistakes were mine. Yao'er, knowing the suffering you've endured, I wished I could fly here, and now I'm finally here."

Yun Ruyao covered her mouth with one hand, her tears flowing even more freely.

"These past few days I've come to propose marriage every day. If Sixth Brother agrees, I'll give him a kidney. But..."

Yun Ruyao suddenly opened her arms and hugged him, sealing his lips with hers.

Cheng Zongyang embraced her slender and cold body, feeling as if a thousand-pound burden had been lifted from his heart. Finally, the misunderstanding was cleared up, and he hadn't let her down. The trivial matter of carrying her over the wall and across the river was now as light as a feather.

After a long while, Yun Ruyao released her lips, her eyes red, and said, "Let's go."

"Huh?" Cheng Zongyang was stunned. He was supposed to be the one to bring it up. He had prepared a speech, thinking about how to use sweet words to lure Yun Ruyao away, but now he didn't have to bother.

"Sixth Brother still doesn't agree, he probably has his reasons, and I suppose he's doing it for my own good," Yun Ruyao said softly. "But I don't care about anything."

Cheng Zongyang smiled bitterly, "It's my fault."

Yun Ruyao covered his mouth and shook her head, "I won't listen to anything, you don't need to say anything."

Cheng Zongyang decisively helped her put on her fox fur coat, then took out the waterproof sleeping bag he had prepared. "We'll be crossing a moat in a bit, don't be afraid, I've counted all the underwater stakes, it'll be over in two breaths at most."

"Wait." Yun Ruyao picked up an eyebrow pencil and hurriedly wrote a letter, leaving it on the table. Then she uncovered her pillowcase, took out a stack of books, and hugged them to her chest.

"Is there anything else I need to bring?"

Yun Ruyao shook her head. Cheng Zongyang zipped up his jacket, carried Yun Ruyao on his back, secured her with a strap, and then went out the window.
