Chapter 149: Chapter 149: Nan Qingqing and Sheng Ruomei Have Arrived
Ren Xingzhou looked toward the denser forest on the other side and, pointing in that direction, reminded Nan Yu, "Don’t ever go over to that forest. The lions there are not as amiable as Xiaoba."
Nan Yu glanced at the forest ahead and then turned to look at the dense woods behind her.
"Why does Xiaoba, a single lion, have half the forest to itself?"
Ren Xingzhou explained, "Xiaoba is different from the others. It was personally delivered by the madam and raised specifically for the sixth young miss."
"That half of the forest was also specifically instructed by the madam, as compensation for the sixth young miss who had been lost for over twenty years."
Nan Yu’s eyes flickered with an indiscernible emotion as she gazed at the lush forest.
Next to her, Ren Xingzhou continued, "You have no idea how much time and effort the madam has spent looking for the sixth young miss. The madam’s health was already not good, and it has been declining over the years."
"But fortunately, heaven has eyes, and has allowed the madam to find Miss Qingqing."
In a place Ren Xingzhou couldn’t see, Nan Yu clenched her teeth tightly, silently clenched her fists, and exerted all her effort to suppress her emotions.
Seeing that Nan Yu remained silent, Ren Xingzhou recalled what Duan Zhu had said about her not getting along with Nan Qingqing and thought she might not want to listen, so he did not say more.
An hour later, they returned to the cabin.
The setting sun cast layers of evening glow across the sky.
Within the deep forest, there was no cellphone signal at all. Upon their return, Ren Xingzhou’s phone started buzzing incessantly.
He took it out and saw that all the calls were from Duan Zhu.
He immediately called back.
"Madam, I just went to feed Xiaoba," he said as he entered the house, leaving Nan Yu alone outside.
Nan Yu cast her gaze toward the mountain road below, and from afar, she saw a car driving along the road like a speck of black.
She squinted her eyes, thinking about what Ren Xingzhou had said earlier.
Nan Qingqing and Sheng Ruomei had arrived.
The next moment, Ren Xingzhou came out, shouldered a hunting rifle, and said to Nan Yu, "Miss Qingqing and your foster mother have arrived, come with me to meet them."
Nan Yu gave him a glance and said listlessly, "I’m tired. You go ahead."
Having said that, she slid into the back seat of the car, closed the door with a slam, covered herself with a blanket, and fell asleep.
Seeing how quick she was, and reminded of what the madam had said, Ren Xingzhou guessed that there was a considerable conflict between Nan Yu and Qingqing’s foster mother and did not press further.
"I’ll go greet them. You be careful on your own here, and don’t wander off," he said.
Nan Yu did not respond, and shortly after, the sound of a motorcycle receded into the distance.
When it had completely vanished from hearing, she climbed out from the car and took the gun she had snatched from Ren Xingzhou, drawing it from behind her waist.
She went into the cabin to find bandages and bound the gun to her waist, making it near invisible unless looked at closely.
She thought about the three boxes of materials in the trunk and took one of them, hiding it under the bed in the cabin.
Just as she had finished hiding it and came out, a familiar roar of a lion reached her ears.
"Roar—"
Nan Yu turned her head and saw that Xiaoba had followed her scent and found her.
The moment Xiaoba saw her, it happily rubbed against her in excitement.
Nan Yu, who had been worrying about where to hide the other two boxes of materials, was delighted to see Xiaoba.
She stroked Xiaoba’s chin and negotiated, "Xiaoba, can you help me hide these two boxes of things?"
Xiaoba seemed to understand her and obediently nodded its big head, "Roar~"
Nan Yu’s eyes curved into a smile. "Xiaoba is such a good lion."
She turned to fetch two sturdy ropes and a flat, broad plank.
She securely fastened one end of the ropes to the plank and tied the other around the two not-so-heavy boxes of materials.
With a gentle effort, Nan Yu hefted the two boxes onto Xiaoba’s back.
She patted Xiaoba’s head, "Go and hide them, and don’t tell anyone but me."
Xiaoba obediently nodded, licked Nan Yu’s face, and then, wagging its tail, quickly bounded away from the place.
Five minutes after it had left, Nan Qingqing and Sheng Ruomei arrived.
