Chapter 73: What Has This Got to Do With You?
Was there even a need to think? He was clearly here for An Jiuyue. She wanted to hide from Qian Jiyun, but the man stuck to her like glue.
It was not easy to shake him off.
“Master, just give in. This man is really quite good,” Wei Na said.
“Get lost!” An Jiuyue’s expression darkened as she cursed Wei Na.
“Aren’t you going into the mountains? I’ll wait for you here,” Qian Jiyun said.!!
He handed her the bow in his hand, gesturing for her to take it.
An Jiuyue was confused.
So he came to deliver the bow because I didn’t take it?
I didn’t even mean to bring my bow. Can’t you just be nice and let me go into the mountains alone to look for something?
“You’re going too?” She looked down at the crossbow in his hand, then back up at him.
“Aren’t you going into the mountains?” Qian Jiyun looked at her and asked her seriously.
An Jiuyue was extremely shocked.
What has me entering the mountains got to do with him?
Am I, a hunter who lives on the mountain, not even allowed to enter the mountains? Why are you insisting on following me as if afraid that something bad will happen to me?
Is he going to stay by my side forever?
She tried to put on a polite smile. “What has this got to do with you?”
“It’s too dangerous in the mountains,” the man replied seriously.
How can I allow a young lady like An Jiuyue to enter the dangerous mountains alone? I have to accompany her!
An Jiuyue felt her anger caught in her throat, and she almost fainted from anger.
I live on the mountain, okay? How can I not know how dangerous it is? I even encountered a snake as thick as my waist when I first transmigrated here—no, it was a python!
I have encountered all sorts of dangers in my previous life. Why would I be afraid of the dangers in a mere forest?
However, she could not say that to the man.
“Okay, you can follow me.”
Taking a deep breath, she turned around and left. It was up to him to decide if he wanted to follow her, but it would be best if she could lose him!
…
That night, they caught some animals in the forest. However, An Jiuyue did not stand on ceremony this time. She carried all the animals she hunted back into the treehouse, leaving nothing for the people below.
“What happened to Jiuyue?” Aunt Ju asked her husband.
Aunt Ju and the others were used to An Jiuyue’s obedient demeanor. They were momentarily surprised by her coldness.
“I went to the cave just now. The people there are outrageous,” the village’s Junior Officer said to his wife as he looked up at the treehouse.
Aunt Ju immediately understood.
Those men must have blabbered nonsense again. Despite being fed, they are unsatisfied and demand even more! None of them can even swim. What else do they want? Ridiculous!
“Those people should starve!”
The Junior Officer also nodded. “I agree!”
