The Spirited Daughter-in-law and the Mountain Man
Chapter 1370 - Chapter 1370 Peeping Tom 2

Chapter 1370: Peeping Tom 2 Chapter 1370: Peeping Tom 2 The side paths laid with bluestone slabs lead to a vast flower garden, where she had ordered the planting of many flowers and trees, hoping to add more life to the yard.

The myriad purples and reds of the flowers swayed in the wind, filling the yard with their fragrance.

Chang Haotian hid himself on the rooftop, watching the beautiful woman before the flower garden.

Her features were like a painting, with clear, bright eyes akin to a pool of pure water, and a face of unparalleled delicacy.

She exuded a leisurely demeanor, clad in a light goose-yellow silk skirt, draped in a shawl of the same color.

Her waist was so slender that it could hardly be grasped, and her figure was so refined that she seemed otherworldly.

She was like a person who had stepped out of a painting, stunningly captivating!

Chang Haotian was never one to be attracted by the outward appearance of women, yet at that moment, he too found himself entranced.

In his eyes, there were no purple and red flowers; his entire being was captivated by the woman who was even more beautiful than the blossoms.

He had just overheard her tell Tao Meijiao that her man could not take a concubine, nor could he be with other women.

Initially, he couldn’t comprehend what she wanted.

After all, she had rejected him, the Estate Owner of Pear Blossom Villa, to marry Xiao Yuchuan, a village man.

Even he was surprised to learn from a spy that the family head of the Xiao Family in the capital city, Xiao Chonghuan, had disclosed during a conversation with his Lady that Xiao Yuchuan from Wushan Village was indeed his own flesh and blood.

As for why this was, he had no idea.

At least, when Su Qingyue had made her choice, what she wanted was not fame or wealth.

Now, he suddenly understood that what Su Qingyue wanted was nothing more than to be with her beloved for a lifetime.

He chuckled softly; Xiao Yuchuan might not be able to give her that.

But he, Chang Haotian, certainly could.

All he needed to do was wait quietly, and she would accept him.

Su Qingyue was aware that Chang Haotian was hiding in the shadows.

Since he did not show himself and there seemed to be no other movement, she could not be bothered with him.

It was rumored that Chang Haotian’s martial arts prowess was unmatched.

The reason he had nearly been killed by a killer last time was because he had been afflicted by the Seven-Day Intestinal Break Poison.

She had observed him: his footsteps were firm and his breathing was subtle and restrained.

Indeed, he was one of the top experts.

Had he not been poisoned, she might not have been a match for him.

But to someone like Su Qingyue, as long as she could win, what did it matter the means?

She glanced in the direction where Chang Haotian was hidden, then gracefully walked toward Qin Garden.

Chang Haotian caught her gaze and was slightly startled.

He had thought his presence was undetectable.

It turned out she had known all along he was there.

With his martial arts skills, if he chose to conceal his whereabouts, absolutely no one would notice him!

The fact that she could detect him was truly no simple feat.

.co

A playful smile curled up on the corner of his lips.

This woman, he had decided, would be his!

But for now, he really needed to catch up on sleep.

Coming from the capital city to Longwan Town, making a point to arrive ahead of the Xiao Family Head in the capital, had indeed been tiring.

What he hadn’t anticipated was that the Xiao Family Head, Xiao Chonghuan, would not only come in person but also bring his Lady, slowing their travel because they were in a carriage.

Only when he could no longer see Su Qingyue did he use his Qinggong to leap away, disappearing from the Xiao Mansion.

Su Qingyue returned to the side room, sat cross-legged on the bed, placed her hands on her knees with the palms facing upward, and began to gather Zhenqi, cultivating her internal strength.

In ancient times, martial arts experts could scale walls and leap across roofs; without mastering internal strength, however skilled she might be, she would be at a distinct disadvantage.

Even her personal servant girl, Yinzhu, had very good Qinggong.

Fortunately, after practicing internal strength for so long, her inner strength was fairly well-developed now, and combined with her skill, there were few in the world who could defeat her.

She was increasingly realizing the importance of having formidable strength.
