MTL - The Salty Little Cannon Fodder Was Targeted By the Prince

Chapter 11 I’ve been waiting for you all night

Du Wan was sitting cross-legged on the bed practicing, sweating profusely.

Snapped!

 There was a slight sound on the other side of the window.

Du Wan was stunned for a moment.

This is...someone throwing pebbles at the window?

 Sure enough, there was another "pop" sound.

Du Wan was not in a hurry to check. She didn't get up until the pain in her body disappeared. She cautiously moved to the window, then carefully opened a crack and looked out.

Downstairs, in the empty street, there is a man in white standing alone.

 The man in white is holding a lantern.

Inside the lantern, the orange flames flickered and flickered strangely.

Probably because he noticed Du Wan looking outside, the man in white intentionally raised the lantern.

Under the darkness of night, the man’s hazy face became clearer.

 The male protagonist? !

He waved to Du Wan and motioned for her to come down.

Du Wan’s teeth were sore.

There is nothing wrong with this person’s mind.

 Having defrauded the original owner of the mine, you still have the nerve to join in?

The big and smart eyes wandered around the room, and their gaze fell on the wooden shelf in the corner. There was a large basin of water placed on the wooden shelf, which she specially asked Chuntao to prepare, intending to use it to wash her face and wipe her body after practicing in the evening.

So, she happily went over, took out a towel, wet it, and quickly washed her face.

 I wiped the sweat stains on my body again.

Feeling that this was not enough to relieve his anger, he picked up the wooden basin and put it on the ground, soaked his feet in it, and rubbed it a few times. Then he picked up the foot-washing water.

Carefully walked to the window, opened it wide, and splashed under the window!

　　Wow!

Da da da.

 The small sound of water splashing down.

In the silent night, it is particularly clear

“Hey, Miss Du, why aren’t you asleep yet?” Mu Si’an, who was next door, stuck his head out of the window and deliberately shouted at her.

Du Wan rolled her eyes, "It's okay. There are always wild cats making noises at night."

 “Haha! Wild cat, hahaha...”

 “Shut up, you’re disturbing others to sleep.”

　　…“

 Under the street, the figure has disappeared.

  Trouble!

Du Wan slammed the window door and closed it.

  Don’t think that she is smiling and optimistic in front of others.

 In fact, deep down in my heart, I have no sense of belonging to this strange world, let alone the mood to be ambiguous with others. What the hero did tonight made Du Wan even more angry, making her impression of him even worse.

 A grown man comes to hook up with a little girl in the middle of the night. Is this something that is going to happen to God? Is it like something human beings do?

 Don’t say this is ancient times, there are not many people who can do it in modern times!

 …

 For the next three days, Du Wan remained at peace.

 Except for overnight stays, she spent most of her time in the carriage.

 In fact, Du Wan is very busy and has been practicing.

 Once I fell asleep while practicing, and when I woke up I was still in the same position, and my body didn’t feel as painful as usual. Later, she found that every time she practiced, the pain would lessen a little.

 The bumps of the carriage could not affect her enthusiasm for cultivation.

Du Wan didn't hear anything going on outside the window.

Outside, the teams of the Pei and Xie families seemed to be getting more energetic, vying to get ahead.

After three days of robbery, Xie Zhang personally came to see Pei Hao for a cup of tea.

Pei Hao maintained his face and said a few words.

 Then, the Xie family's motorcade followed the Pei family.

In the eyes of uninformed outsiders, they would think that the two teams are together.

 At noon, we passed by a mountain stream.

The Pei family's team stopped and cooked on the spot.

　　　The Xie family team following them actually stopped.

“This Xie Qi is like dog-skin plaster, you can’t shake it off no matter how you shake it off.” Mu Si’an glanced back.

Pei Hao was wiping the sword in his hand with a handkerchief, "Let him go." "Don't you agree?"

 “He might be doing it just to spite you.”

　　"Hey, who am I in the eyes of others? If they want to respond to you, they will respond to you."

“…” Pei Hao wiped his sword for a moment.

 Xie Qi is a drunkard who doesn't care about the bar.

 He glanced at Du Wan and continued to wipe the sword.

Mu Si'an then looked over and exclaimed: "The eldest lady is getting off the car!"

"Is there any need to make a fuss?" Pei Hao glanced over.

"Yes, she almost stays in the carriage these days." Mu Si'an touched his chin, "This person is really different. She doesn't complain about suffering or tiredness. She eats whatever she is given. She doesn't look like a spoiled child at all. Come out, Miss Jiao."

“Probably during the period of disappearance, I suffered a lot.”

 “Do you really think so?”

"This is the best explanation." Pei Hao had doubts in his heart, but he would not say it out loud. Strangers may think it's nothing about the little girl's sense of disobedience, but familiar people...

the other side.

Du Wan stretched a little and looked left and right.

 Just wanted to talk to Chuntao—

  “Wanwan.”

 Behind him, a cry sounded.

Du Wan was shocked when she heard this.

 Looking back, she saw Xie Zhang, standing a foot away behind her. In the past three days, she had tried her best to hide, or was she found?

Du Wan blinked and pretended to be stupid for a second, "Are you calling me?"

 “Are Wanwan angry with me?”

 “How can it be possible?” Du Wan was confused inside.

 Xie Zhang took a few steps forward, and the distance between the two people became closer.

Du Wan almost stepped back in fright, but she held it back!

Xie Zhang's voice was particularly clear and clear, "Wanwan, I waited for you all night that day."

 “What day?” Du Wan’s eyes were wide and confused.

Xie Zhang's eyes flashed, "At three o'clock in the morning, under the banyan tree in the east of the village."

When Du Wan heard this, she exclaimed, "It's you! Since there was no signature, I thought it was someone's prank."

 Xie Zhang:…

 Should you believe her?

 However, her reaction didn't seem to be fake at all.

Of course it was not a lie. Du Wan just found out that it was the male protagonist who made an appointment with her. Did this...did I miss some annual event?

Xie Zhang was quiet for a while, and then asked hesitantly: "That night at the inn, I asked you to go downstairs, and you still..."

Du Wan said "Yeah" again, "It was you that night."

 “It’s not me, then who do you think it is?”

 “Ghost!”

Du Wan blurted out, raised her hand, pointed at his clothes, and added with a strange expression: "White robe, white lantern, late at night..."

 Xie Zhang:…

Chuntao on the side quickly lowered his head and shrugged his shoulders.

 I want to laugh, but I can’t!

 The smile on Xie Zhang's handsome face did not change, but his heart was not at all peaceful.

 Now it is certain that the little girl has changed.

 Usually when the little girl sees him, her eyes are always bright. Now that he is gone, he has become strange and alienated, which makes Xie Zhang feel very complicated.

 Could it be that she knew something?

 “Du Wanwan! Come here.”

Pei Hao's shout interrupted Xie Zhang's thoughts.

Du Wan turned around as if in surprise. When she saw Pei Hao, it was like meeting her own brother. She immediately ran towards him, leaving the poor male protagonist behind.

 Yes, she did it on purpose.

  The male protagonist has evil intentions at first sight!

Stay as far away as possible so that he can’t plot!

Xie Zhang looked at the backs of the two people and frowned.

After Du Wan walked away, she secretly looked back.

 Seeing the other party turn around and leave, he breathed a sigh of relief.
