Strange! Where did Xiao Tian go?
Shang Yiqing hurriedly looked outside the cave, only to see the rising sun as bright as an egg yolk. Xiao Tianyuan was vigorously waving his fists in the morning light. Every punch was filled with the power of tigers and the power of the wind. So it turned out that he was practicing his fist art.
Shang Yiqing stood up and leaned on the wall. "Oh, you're up?"
Xiao Tian Yuan's fist was stopped there, but the heroic stance of his fist was still there. He turned around and smiled: "En." Then he asked, "You're awake too?"
The morning wind blew in from outside the cave and ruffled Shang Yiqing's hair. Shang Yiqing touched her hair and nodded, "Yes, I'm awake too."
Xiao Tianyuan slowly stopped cultivating and walked towards the cave. Only then did Shang Yiqing feel his height. He was about the same height as Fang Zinan, but she looked bigger and stronger. He walked into the cave and asked with a smile, "Did you sleep well at night?"
Shang Yiqing nodded and looked at the wet grass, "It's clear now!"
Xiao Tianyuan nodded with a smile.
"Then are you leaving?" This sentence was so sudden that it was as if both of them had never thought of it before. Both of them were silent for a while, but Shang Yiqing regretted it when she said it. Xiao Tian Yuan immediately regretted that he had entered the cave. He paused for a moment before continuing, "I'll send you back first."
Shang Yiqing was stunned. She had a home to stay at, but she ran away from home. Where could she go? Recover to the Royal Mansion? That can't be done. When she returned home, his father would scold her while jumping up and down, and he would personally send her back to the Rong King's Manor. She wouldn't walk right into his trap! But where could she go?
Xiao Tian saw that she did not speak and could not help but ask, "What happened? What difficulties did you encounter?"
Shang Yiqing thought for a while, and an idea formed in her mind. She decided to make up a lie. Although she had to lie every day since she transmigrated here, she had to find an excuse after telling that lie.
Xiao Tian looked at Shang Yiqing. He had sent her back before, but she only allowed him to send her to the city before breaking up with him. He only wanted to send her back to the city now. Shang Yiqing knew that he was thinking about something, but she did not know what she was thinking.
"Let's go. I know your family is in the city. You, a girl, haven't come home for the entire night. Your family must be very anxious, so I'll send you off first." Xiao Tianyuan said as he looked at her.
Shang Yiqing's expression changed, "I have a home now that I can't go back to."
"Why?" he couldn't help but ask her.
Shang Yiqing sounded pained. "My father married me to someone I don't like. I ran away yesterday to escape the marriage."
"What?" You, escaped from a marriage? " Xiao Tianyuan narrowed his eyes. He had only thought that she had gone to the wild to gather herbs. He hadn't thought that she had actually run away from the marriage. Even he didn't know what to say or do now.
"Yeah, I escaped the marriage. You won't look down on me, will you?" Shang Yiqing spoke pitifully, causing people to feel pity for him.
Xiao Tianyuan hurriedly shook his head: "How could that be? "Then what are you going to do now?"
"I don't know either. I just want to escape as far away as possible." In fact, that was what Shang Yiqing was thinking too. She thought that once they left this place, she wouldn't need to see King Rong any longer. She hated him to the point that she couldn't bear it any longer!
"Miss Shang, I feel that what you're doing is wrong." Xiao Tian Yuan thought for a moment before seriously saying, "If you leave like this, how will your father face him? Moreover, since your father has already arranged a marriage for you, then he must have carefully planned it for you. You can't just leave like this."
"What if I don't leave? I obviously don't like that person! " Fang Zinan's handsome face appeared in front of Shang Yiqing's eyes, but when she thought about it, she felt indescribably angry. She really didn't like him.
Xiao Tian Yuan paused for a moment before glancing at her, "Miss Shang, even if your father told you to marry someone you don't like, you should at least tell him about it. How did your father explain it to others? " For some reason, he felt uncomfortable when Shang Yiqing mentioned marriage.
"No, if I go back, my dad will definitely tie me up in the bridal sedan. I won't go back even if I die." Although Shang Yiqing was lying to Xiao Tian Yuan, this was still her true intention.
"Miss Shang, don't think like that. As a girl, where can you run to? What if I meet a bad person? " Xiao Tian Yuan thought for a moment and said, "How about this: I'll send you back first and tell your father not to force you, okay?"
"No way!" Shang Yiqing stamped her feet, "My father is unreasonable. He won't listen to you."
Xiao Tianyuan lowered his head and thought for a moment, "You clearly don't like that person, but why does your father insist on marrying him? Is there a reason? "
Shang Yiqing rolled her eyes, "What reason could there be?" "My dad is addicted to gambling, and only because he owes me money did he marry me off to that person." She already felt that this reason was very satisfactory.
Xiao Tianyuan laughed when he heard that. "What do I think is the reason? How much money does your father owe him? "
Shang Yiqing thought for a moment, then gestured with her hand, and changed into a five.
"How much silver is it?" Xiao Tianyuan was dumbfounded. He couldn't figure out how much money it was.
"Five thousand silver!" Shang Yiqing bit down hard, thinking that this number was not a small one, it must be enough to scare him off.
When Xiao Tianyuan heard this, he sniffed and said, "Five thousand taels of silver really isn't a small sum."
"That's right, that's right, so it's impossible for me to go back. You don't know what it is, but my father married me to someone who's about to die. I don't want to do this." Shang Yiqing suddenly remembered that Fang Zinan was poisoned and was no different from a dying man. Her words were not a curse to him.
"It's not that I can't afford five thousand silver. "How about this, I will follow you into the city and find your father. I will help him repay the money he owes." Xiao Tianyuan said.
This was completely different from what she had imagined. He actually said that he would help her return the silver. She had never expected him to return the silver in her place.
"You don't believe me? I'll bring you back to your father now. " At the same time, he wanted to settle this matter for Shang Yiqing.
"No need, my dad won't listen to you."
Xiao Tianyuan was completely stupefied by her words. After thinking for a moment, he replied, "Actually, you don't have to be afraid at all. Your father has money, so he won't force you anymore. Don't worry. "
