The group of people continued on their way after having eaten breakfast.

After leaving the little town, they would continue to travel westwards and would arrive at the Xiqin Kingdom realm in less than half a day.

Mu Xiaoshi was a candidate to participate in the Prince Siqin's consort selection, so she naturally could not show her face to the public, hence she sat on the carriage.

Qin Yin's body had just recovered so she was also sitting in the carriage.

Bai Su originally wanted to ride it, but after thinking about it, since the journey was long, she decided to sit inside the horse carriage comfortably.

Immediately, the three women in the carriage glared at each other. No one liked them.

The carriage suddenly stopped with a sound of "Hong".

Behind him came the sound of fast horses galloping.

Bai Su opened the curtain in surprise and looked behind him.

Not far behind, three men on horseback were rushing toward them.

Although they were still quite a distance away, Bai Su recognized a familiar figure amongst them with a single glance …

The curtain quietly fell from her hands, covering everything in the outside world.

Bai Su frowned slightly. With a stiff expression, she took her hand back and leaned her head against the carriage wall. She stared at the roof for a while before slowly closing her eyes.

Outside the horse carriage, Mu Zixuan's voice could be clearly heard. "Sixth Brother, you've finally caught up."

Sixth Brother Mu Zixuan, wasn't he Mu Lingfeng?

So it turned out that he was not seeing things, the person who had just arrived was really Mu Lingfeng.

Without waiting for Bai Su to think much, Mu Lingfeng's low and hoarse voice quickly sounded: "Fourth Brother." After a pause, he asked, "Little Jiu, did you find the tenth place?"

"Yes." Little Ten was caught by the Fourth Brother. "

"Who said I was caught?" Mu Xiaoshi suddenly opened the carriage door.

Bai Su, who was originally staring blankly towards the carriage door, raised her eyes and met with the gaze of Mu Lingfeng, who was riding on the horse outside the carriage.

Mu Lingfeng's calm face suddenly froze, a look of surprise flashed past his eyes. He stared at Bai Su, as if he had forgotten everything around him.

Bai Su did not expect Mu Xiaoshi to suddenly open the carriage door, nor did she expect that she and Mu Lingfeng would suddenly meet face to face …

It had been almost two months since they last saw each other, right?

After his gaze paused for a moment, Bai Su quickly shifted his gaze away and looked at Mu Yuntian.

Her eyes were cold with a hint of reproach.

Even if she did not speak, Mu Yuntian understood what she meant.

"Sixth Brother is under the orders of royal father to send Little Jiu and Little Jiu off to Xiqin for ten years." He frowned slightly and explained, "I only found out last night."

If he had known earlier that this trip to the Western Zither Department would be with Mu Lingfeng, he definitely would not have brought Bai Su to meet up with them.

Now... He really did lift a rock to smash his own foot!

After listening to Mu Yuntian's explanation, Bai Su retracted her gaze and did not look at them anymore. Instead, she looked at the tea table in the carriage calmly.

When Mu Xiaoshi saw that they had not spoken a word, and had glanced at Mu Lingfeng, and then glanced at Mu Yuntian, he could not help but narrow her eyes and look at Bai Su.

As intelligent as she was, she seemed to have discovered something new in the world, and a hint of interest appeared on the corner of her mouth.

Bai Su's cold and detached attitude caused Mu Lingfeng to hold back the words he wanted to say good bye to her, and he was unable to open his mouth no matter what.

The group of people continued on their way, each with their own thoughts.

At noon, they finally arrived at the borders of the Xiqin Kingdom.

If they were to climb a mountain, they would be able to reach the small town at the edge of the Xiqin Kingdom.

The carriage stopped in the woods.

"Sister Susu, do you want to drink some water? Give me your personal kettle and I'll get you some water. " Mu Zixuan opened the curtain and asked Bai Su smilingly.

Bai Su did not have time to reply, the zither music snorted and said: "If you have nothing to say, please say it, I'm a thief."

"Tch!" Mu Zixuan glared at her, raised an eyebrow, and laughed lightly: "Even if you are being attentive to her, it is definitely not towards you."

"You!"

Just a simple sentence was enough to anger Qin Yin to the point that she was gnashing her teeth.

Her gaze landed on Bai Su, and her jealousy grew even stronger.

She clearly hadn't done anything, but both Mu Yuntian and Mu Zixuan had treated her so well.

Feeling the Qin's unkind gaze, Bai Su's pupils shrank.

Initially, she wanted to walk around, but she did not want Mu Zixuan to fetch water for him. Seeing the zither music looking at him with such hostility, Bai Su laughed and passed the water bottle to Mu Zixuan: "Quickly go."

As he spoke, he swept his eyes over the zither music.

That gaze clearly meant that since he was shot while lying down, it would be better to take things seriously. At least he wouldn't have to bear the notoriety of being envied by others for nothing.

The sound of the zither was absolutely infuriating!

With a cold snort, he picked up the corner of his skirt and descended from the carriage.

Mu Xiaoshi played with her finger clip in a seemingly casual manner, but she saw everything that happened in front of him with her own eyes.

Seeing Qin Yin get off the carriage, she raised her head and looked at Bai Su: "What is your relationship with my Sixth Brother?"

Hearing that she mentioned Mu Lingfeng, Bai Su's face changed.

Mu Xiaoshi observed everything in detail and raised her eyebrows lightly, "You guys really have something to do with each other. Heh, I guess it's because you don't want to see my Sixth Brother that's why you stayed in the carriage the whole time, and didn't want to get off, right? "

Bai Su clenched her fists between her legs and raised her eyes, coldly sweeping her gaze across Mu Xiaoshi, "Don't think you're very smart, always trying to guess what other people are thinking."

Her voice was very cold and her gaze was even colder, cold to the point that it was as if two ice knives were stabbing straight at Mu Xiaoshi's chest.

Bai Su got up and walked down the carriage.

Mu Xiaoshi looked at Bai Su's back figure, and her brows furrowed even more.

By the stream.

Bai Su chased up to Mu Zixuan and shouted: "Give me the water bottle, I'll do it myself!"

"Oh." Mu Zixuan returned the water bottle to Bai Su and laughed, "Sister Susu, I will go and see if there are any wild animals in the vicinity."

"Go." Bai Su said lightly.

Squatting by the stream, he looked at his own reflection in the water.

Bai Su could see the indifference on her face that could no longer be disguised.

She was enraged by Mu Xiaoshi just now and impulsively got out of the carriage, but fortunately, she did not see Mu Lingfeng, causing Bai Su to heave a sigh of relief.

Although he had already recovered from the shock of seeing Mu Lingfeng again, looking at him was like seeing Xi Yan lying in a pool of blood.

Xi Yan's death was the eternal pain in her heart that had been pressed down for her entire life.

How could she remain calm after seeing some people and matters related to her death?

"Su'er."

A light voice suddenly came from behind him.

Bai Su who was squatting by the stream and fetching water suddenly stopped.

She did not turn her head, nor did she speak.

The person behind him did not say anything either.

The surroundings seemed to have suddenly become quiet.

Bai Su maintained her half squat with one hand holding the water bottle and the other holding the lid, for a long time.

Behind him, Mu Lingfeng's voice once again sounded. "Are you alright?"

Bai Su closed the lid back on the water bottle and slowly stood up.

After pausing for a moment, he turned around.

Mu Lingfeng stood not even three meters in front of her.

He was wearing his usual royal blue robe, looking noble and noble.

Just that, it was unknown if it was because of Bai Su's misconception, but it was as if there was less irritation between her brows, and more composure.

It was ironic to hear him say, "How are you?"

The corner of Bai Su's mouth hooked up into a cold smile. As she walked forward, she lightly said: "I'm fine.
