Chapter 110: Assassins!

Translator: Antonia

At this moment, he hated the mother and son more. But for his cold poison, he would take her into his arms and loved her as much as he could instead of putting her in the icy water.

With very passing minute, Mo Qianxue trembled and his heart ached like being cut inch by inch.

Time flew by quietly. Ning Shaoqing finally felt that Mo Qianxues hands werent frightening hot as before, so he took her out of the bucket.

Mo Qianxue only wore one layer of clothes, and having soaked in the water for so long, the clothes were tightly attached to the body and displayed her curves of the nude.

Meeting Ning Shaoqings eyes, Mo Qianxue was a little shy, You turn around.

Ning Shaoqing flushed and was also shy and embarrassed.

Usually, he would make fun of her, Weve become husband and wife long ago. What to be shy of? before he turned around. But today, he turned at once.

He felt himself too ineptitude as a husband to make fun of her.

They had never unruly kissed or gotten changed before each other in bright daylight. Therefore, he had touched or kissed but never closely seen her nudity.

When Mo Qianxue stood up from the water, he subtly swallowed. However, today he found himself an incompetent husband to appreciate her body.

As soon as Su Qi got out of the room, Asan and Awu arrived quickly.

Therefore, the clothes Mo Qianxue was wearing now werent the suit that was bought by Alu as Su Qi had ordered, but the ones Awu bringing here at Ning Shaoqings order.

After Mo Qianxue got dressed, Ning Shaoqing turned back and wrapped his large fur cloak on her.

This fur cloak was the one Mo Qianxue asked Nizi to make for him in case that his poison might be triggered by the cold winter.

The outer layer was grey-mice fur, which wasnt expensive but especially warm.

Wrapping her in the cloak, Ning Shaoqing didnt want to stay for one more second and held her to walk out.

Mo Qianxue arrived here in the afternoon, so now after all the torment, the sky was dark already.

Walking in the yard and seeing Su Qi standing under the evergreen old tree in thin clothes, Ning Shaoqing almost hit the ceiling again because even in darkness, the teeth print on his neck was still so obvious.

The thank you on the tip of his tongue swallowed back. With a snort, he held Mo Qianxue and quickly walked out of Baiyunju.

In the carriage, Mo Qianxue began to sneeze again.

In a hurry, Ning Shaoqing wrapped the cloak tighter for her and closely hugged her in his arms. As his hand pressed against her back, she felt a current of warmth sending over from her back to run through her body.

Instantly, she could feel the coldness in her body reducing bit by bit. Within one quarter, she was much warmer.

Ning Shaoqings forehead was deemed with sweat. Only after Mo Qianxue stopped trembling and her face had no more color of coldness did he take back his hand and stop transmitting authentic qi to her. Then he took her into his arms again.

As her body warmed up, Mo Qianxue was totally well. She didnt mention about she staying alone with Su Qi, and Ning Shaoqing didnt ask either.

The couple stayed quiet by each others side. Mo Qianxue felt a little boring, so she asked Ning Shaoqing to tell anecdotes that had happened when he was a little boy, so Ning Shaoqing began to tell her things about the Ning family.

The first time he mentioned the Ning family was when he just woke up from a coma. At that time, he only concisely subscribed it as an ordinary big family.

The second time was on Ning Shaoqings birthday. On that day, she was annoyed by his repeated provoking, and Ning Shaoqing explained to her, but the topic was limited within his legal mother and good-for-nothing younger brother.

This time, Ning Shaoqing revealed much details.

He spoke of his father, of the power of the Ning family, of the complicated intricacies of interpersonal relationship among the family, of the responsibility and honor of a noble family

In modern times, there was no longer such a thing as family honor and the kind, so this topic was quite fresh to Mo Qianxue, who took it as interesting stories.

Reborn to Tianqi, Mo Qianxue was insignificant as a duckweed. For her, family honor or reputation sounded very remote, let alone family responsibility, which had nothing to do with her.

Hearing Ning Shaoqing telling her those covert plots and conspiracies, Mo Qianxue felt lucky that she didnt have a family in this world, nor did she need to sacrifice or fight for her family.

In order to gain family protection, honor and power, one must at the same time shoulder due duties and obligation for the family.

Mo Qianxue only heard and didnt ask questions, because she understood that the more one knew, the faster he/she headed for death. There were secrets of each family that couldnt be known to others.

Ning Shaoqing was candid to tell her everything because of trust, but she didnt want to know too much or put too much on her shoulders. Therefore, as she listened, she felt more burdened and no longer want to hear more.

She closed her eyes in his arms as in implication. Ning Shaoqing understood it and stopped talking, pulling over a carpet to cover on her.

Awu wasnt a good oxcart driver but a good driver of horse carriage. Lying in Ning Shaoqings embrace, she barely felt bumpy.

After a day of torment, now she was warm and comfortable. In a while, with a yawn, she almost fell asleep when suddenly the carriage stopped.

Both Mo Qianxue and Ning Shaoqing were caught unprepared. By inertia, they leaned forward, and at the same time, there were sounds of fighting from outside.

Watch out. Ning Shaoqing had wanted to slow down the falling of his body, but with Mo Qianxue lying on it and with no supporting point, they already rushed towards the carriage door.

Ning Shaoqing realized it and quickly turned around to reach the door in advance so as to make buffer for Mo Qianxue.

Boom

Mo Qianxue fell on Ning Shaoqing, who heavily hit on the door. The two faces collided, and Mo Qianxues lips swept over those of Ning Shaoqings.

As if there was current running through, both of them stunned at once. They even forget to move and kept their lips touching each other.

The drug in Mo Qianxue had mostly diluted. Upon touching Ning Shaoqings lips, it seemed to take effect again.

Since meeting her at Su Qis place till now, Ning Shaoqing had been drinking loads of vinegar, so hearing her hasty breath and feeling her burning warm, naturally he was turned on.

Hence, he opened his mouth and wrapped her lips.

Time seemed to be static. The fleeting moment seemed life long for them.

However, this wasnt the time! The horse neighed, taking aback Ning Shaoqing and Mo Qianxue and calling them back to earth. With embarrassment, they moved away not to look at each other.

They were no longer shy before each other. They felt embarrassed at their own passion to make out when outside a fight had already stirred up riot.

Cough. Mo Qianxue pressed on the floor to get up but

Ouch Ning Shaoqing yelled out painfully.

What Mo Qianxue pressed was certain part of Ning Shaoqing, Sorry, sorry. I dont meant it. With more embarrassment, Mo Qianxue hurriedly moved away her hand. Speaking of it, Mo Qianxue had never touched the thing. Certainly she was shy.

However, as she released her hand, she lost balance again and fell back to Ning Shaoqings arms.

It would be a reasonable guess that she meant it.

The compartment wasnt very big, and the two huddled together in a pose as erotic as one could imagine Mo Qianxue was very familiar with Ning Shaoqing and his physical change. Besides, she had felt how hard his thing was.

Mo Qianxue wanted to swear! When other stupid women fell into a trap and got drugged, they would either have some meat or at least drink a bowl of soup. Yet, when it was her turn, what she got was icy water! How she wished to slap the one who had drugged her a million times and tortured him/her with whips and candles!

If it was her, let her boobs hurt forever; if it was him, let him never get hard again

Recalling the touch, Mo Qianxue couldnt be more embarrassed and so was Ning Shaoqing.

He fell on the ground and was rubbed under Mo Qianxue. Of course he had reaction, unless he was dead.

However, even if he had reaction, he couldnt give it to Mo Qianxue when she had suffered in the coldness a moment ago.

In the small compartment, the temperature rocketed amidst a mixed air of armor and embarrassment. Mo Qianxue stayed motionless on the ground, waiting for the fire to go out and for Ning Shaoqing to calm down.

Lord. Assassins. Awu probably figured out the situation in the carriage, so he understandingly got off so as not to hear the sound from inside the carriage and at the same time protect them.

Ning Shaoqing cleared his throat to make sure he sounded normal, Yes, I know. Catch them alive.

Since Awu and the shadow guard didnt join the fight, it meant that there werent many assassins and that they werent formidable.

Yes. Awu replied and didnt leave, still standing at where he was.

His duty was not to defeat the assassins but to protect Ning Shaoqing. There were only three assassins, and weak ones, so Asan was enough to defeat them. Awu couldnt leave in case there might be a trap like luring the tiger out of his den.

Assassins!

Were they sent by the mother and son that Ning Shaoqing had mentioned?

Mo Qianxue recalled the complicated relations within the Ning family and wondered whether those people had obtained some news from Tingfengquan.

Cough Qianxue, you can get up. With time, Ning Shaoqings breath resumed steady and had to remind her since she still sat unmoved.

Although the fight out there wasnt urgent, he shouldnt underestimate the situation.

He knew that Mo Qianxue had felt his physical change, otherwise she wouldnt have to sit motionless all of a sudden. Thinking of this, he was sorrier.

Qianxue, I Ning Shaoqing wanted to explain but the words just wouldnt come out of his mouth.

As long as he recalled what had happened to her this morning, he deeply blamed himself. Awu was out there by the carriage, so Mo Qianxue quickly interrupted to prevent him from saying more embarrassing things, Its okay. I understand. You dont need to explain.

Upon finishing that, Mo Qianxue sweated.

What had she said? Without context, people would regard her as some sort of wild crazy woman.

Cough Mo Qianxue turned away not to look at Ning Shaoqing and despised herself secretly.

Mo Qianxue, you were a bigger fool now. Wasnt that a small case? Why bother to discuss it again and again?

Mo Qianxues little movement and little guilt all reached the eyes of Ning Shaoqing. He caressed her face and hoped that he was able to protect her.

The air in the carriage was sweet but out of it was bloody.

Lord, the three assassins were dealt with, but then came a group of twenty masked men. Were surrounded. Awus voice was low, sounding unoptimistic.

Break out! Kill all of them after break out! Ning Shaoqings voice was icier than Mo Qianxue had ever heard.

If there were a few assassins, he could keep them alive, but if the number increased, he must kill them all.

Moreover, being surrounded, it was inconvenient for him to protect Mo Qianxue.

If they decided to shot arrows simultaneously at the carriage, the consequence would be unimaginable.

Awu waved the whip and the horse sprinted forward to break through the layers of assassins and rushed into the dark night

Catch them. Killing the people in the carriage is greatly rewarded!

The hoarse voice penetrated through the carriage into the ears of Ning Shaoqing and Mo Qianxue!

The people in the carriage?! The goal of these people was Ning Shaoqing!

Qianxue. Sorry for dragging you into this. Ning Shaoqing was very guilty. What he wanted to give her was happiness, but now he pushed Mo Qianxue into danger.

Were a couple to share everything. Dont blame yourself!

The moon hung up high. Leaves falling and snowflakes swirling in the gale

The horse carriage ran wildly, and behind it the sound of swords and spears colliding constantly sent over amidst the incredibly loud hoof-tramping. Ning Shaoqing lifted the curtain, Awu, protect lady.

He needed to end this as soon as possible!

When the carriage marched on, Asan had returned to the carriage and sat on the front together with Awu.

Lord, its difficult to get rid of the assassins. It seems they appear in different batches. Lord, I think youd better take lady to leave here first. Its too dangerous. Asan sounded more nervous than Awu. The situation was tricky.

Ning Shaoqing looked up and noticed another body encirclement ahead. With a sneer, he turned poised.

He was clear of the strength of Asan and Awu, who were the best two of his eight intimate guards. If Asan said so, it meant that the enemy had invested a lot in the assassination. Ning Shaoqing didnt hesitate at all and still ordered, Try to break through it! Awu, your top priority is to protect lady.

The more dangerous the situation was, the more necessary it was for him to fight in person in order to put an end to the danger. Otherwise, it would be futile to arrive at the Wang village. If these people were really deployed by the heartless mother and son, then probably they would slaughter the whole village, which would be hundreds of lives!

Yes. Although Awu was unwilling, he knew he shouldnt disobey lords order at a crucial moment, so he raised the whip again to urge the horse to run faster.

The carriage dashed rampant to scatter the masked men, but they didnt give up and followed closely behind.

In the wilderness, it was in vain to run however further. As long as they broke out the body encirclement and left them behind the carriage, everything would be easy.

Qianxue. Sit steady! Ning Shaoqing worried that she might fall off like before, and after analyzing the situation outside, he comforted her in a concerning voice, Dont worry. Sit here and dont get down. Dont look out. Itll be alright.

The speed of the carriage was high, but not so high as to scary Mo Qianxue. Could a horse carriage run faster than a car?

In modern times, she used to drive her Audi at 150m/h on highway. It was much speedy than this one. Of course, it was less bumpy to the buttocks.

As for sit here and dont get down, she knew it without being told by him, because she wasnt a martial artist and it was so dark. Where could she go? Going out would merely increase their burden. She wasnt that stupid.

Faster. The people in the carriage want to escape. Stop them. Dont have to keep them alive Seeing the carriage running faster, the head of the masked men shouted while chasing.
