Ghostly Masked Prince Xiao: Pampering and Spoiling the Little Adorable Consort

(20) An Eccentric Divine Doctor Isn't Reliable

"Daddy, what did you say?" Chu Qing-Yan handed over the Tanghulu she just purchased from a seller, soon after, she recalled the words Daddy seemed to have said. She couldn't help but to ask, with her head slanted towards Daddy.

A pity that now, in Daddy's eyes, there was only this Tanghulu. Where would he have the mind to pay attention to what she was asking. No, in Daddy's eyes, there was still Mother, as a matter of fact, Daddy was already joyously running to find Mother.

Chu Qing-Yan shook her head and burst out laughing somewhat helplessly. Just now, she suddenly thought of those several people they had encountered on the street, so she couldn't help but to turn around and look. Unfortunately, the crowd was bustling with activity, so she didn't see that man who was extraordinary from head to toe again.

Just when Chu Qing-Yan turned around to continue walking forward, that person dressed in luxurious black clothing stood under a huge tree, his clear and cold gaze looking in her direction. The breeze lightly brushed past, lifting up the corner of his black clothing. On the side of his face, a silver luster shined faintly under the sunlight.

"Your Highness, that little young lady is Chu family's little Miss." A subordinate looked in the direction his family master's gaze was watching, and immediately reported.

"Uh-huh." Xiao Xu faintly responded, even without the reminder from his subordinate, he had already recognized her. That girl who had rescued him once in Mao Village now, through a freak combination of factors, had become his partner in this bestowed marriage. She wasn't really tall and didn't even reach his chest, still possessing the innocence of childhood. When she smiled, two little canine teeth would be exposed, with two shallow dimples.

Don't blame Xiao Xu for looking at her every detail. Whether it was being rescued in Mao Village or maybe that chance encounter in Chu family, he had never seen this girl in the daylight. He was still somewhat curious with regards to this courageous, insightful, witty and prudent little girl.

However, it was only curiosity, his heart wasn't set on Chu Qing-Yan. Based on his thinking, Chu Qing-Yan would very quickly leave his line of sight. Because, when all's said and done, she would run away from Chu family and escape this marriage.

"Master, it seems that Chu family's surveillance towards this Miss has become tighter and tighter." The subordinate couldn't help but to say in surprise.

Xiao Xu, heaving heard what was said, raised his eyes to look around. Just as he said, he finally saw several furtive servants in Chu family attire concealed in the crowd. This lousy tracking skill could deceive Chu Qing-Yan's group of people, but could not escape his eyes.

"Where is Fire Spirit?" Xiao Xu frowned, according to reason, Elder Chu would very quickly be celebrating his birthday, and Chu Qing-Yan should be secretly preparing for the matter of running away. How could she still be in the mood to take a stroll on the street? Moreover, with so many people following behind, it was either that Chu family had started to doubt her or that her plan was exposed. What kind of situation, only Fire Spirit would be the most clear about.

Once he finished speaking, Fire Spirit had already been summoned over.

Fire Spirit smiled unnaturally at his family's Highness. Originally, he thought that His Highness hadn't detected the wrongness from just now, so he could avoid this calamity. How could he have known that he hadn't walked a far distance before being called back.

"Your Highness——"

"Reason."

Before Fire Spirit had the time to finish speaking, he had already been coldly cut off by a word from Xiao Xu.
