Я обнял крепкого мужчину за тонкую талию

Глава 22

Yu Zhou walked and searched, but he couldn't find Yuan Yang anywhere. The entire Six Arts Academy was unusually quiet. But Yu Zhou's breathing was unusually heavy.

"Yuan Yang, what's wrong with you?" Yu Zhou murmured.

But Yuan Yang had already gone far away, and images from her childhood kept flashing through her mind. Cries and shouts echoed everywhere...

"Mom, wake up, wake up!"

"He's not my father, I hate him..." A bloodthirsty glint shone in her resolute eyes.

A woman picked up a rattan whip and struck a boy heavily, tears streaming down her face, saying as she did so, "Yang'er, do you know what you've done wrong?"

"I don't know," came a firm and unyielding voice. "Do you know?" Another lash followed, the woman striking mercilessly. The boy remained silent. But his snow-white robe was already stained with blood, the whip marks shockingly clear. The woman said nothing more, only continuing to strike until she collapsed to the ground, exhausted, and burst into tears.

"God! Tell me why..." Yuan Yang roared to the sky. She collapsed onto the lakeside, her long, disheveled hair falling messily to the ground, her white robe stained and grime. Her once black eyes had gradually turned a deep purple, carrying a hint of allure and desolation. Her fingers were stained with mud and blood.

Yu Zhou, however, brushed past her not far away. He didn't notice Yuan Yang lying on the ground, but instead continued searching in the nearby forest. Without calling out or shouting, Yu Zhou simply wanted to follow his instincts.

"Zhun, what are you doing here?" A hawk swiftly landed on Yu Zhou's shoulder, proudly raising its head.

"Could it be..." Yu Zhou's eyes widened, but he hadn't uttered a word yet. "Husband!" A pink figure was already clinging to Yu Zhou, swaying back and forth.

Sure enough, it was Bing Ning!

"My lord, I'm here. Aren't you happy to see me?" Bing Ning continued to torment Yu Zhou's neck. Her voice carried a hint of sweetness.

"Happy." He glanced at Zhun, who was clearly unconvinced, and turned its head away because Bing Ning had thrown it away. "Really?" Bing Ning looked at Yu Zhou with disbelief on her face.

Yu Zhou pondered for a moment and then asked, "How did you end up here? Does your master know?"

"Of course Grandpa knows. Otherwise..." Yu Zhou kept his eyes fixed on Bing Ning's, who spoke hesitantly. Yu Zhou knew Bing Ning was lying again. "Bing Ning, Master will worry if you sneak out like this."

"No way! Grandpa's been buried in the thatched hut all this time, and that blockhead Lin Lie is never around. Even when he is, he's just spacing out. I'm practically turning into a spider!" Bing Ning said angrily.

"Then who will take care of Little White, Little Gray, and Little Silver?" A well-intentioned temptation.

“No need! I brought them all.” Bing Ning tilted her head and said, pointing to the animals hiding behind the tree. Yu Zhou suddenly felt that Bing Ning had come prepared, and the animals were cooperating very well.

Yu Zhou sighed helplessly. She knew that if Bing Ning came, not even ten oxen could pull her back. "Husband, you've asked me so many questions, and I haven't even asked you one yet!" Bing Ning scrutinized Yu Zhou again. She sniffed him and said, "Husband, you're being very naughty!"

Yu Zhou swallowed hard. Had she discovered Lan Tianxixiang's affair? It would be strange if she didn't get skinned alive.

"What did I do wrong?" Yu Zhou asked, still clinging to a sliver of hope.

"You drank some alcohol, and it was baijiu, no less!" Bing Ning's sense of smell wasn't as good as Yu Zhou's, but her nose was still very sharp. It turned out that Yuan Yang had broken a glass and spilled the wine on her clothes.

"It was spilled accidentally, I didn't drink it," Yu Zhou explained.

"Really? Give me a puff of air." Bing Ning pretended to breathe, instructing Yu Zhou. After Yu Zhou breathed, Bing Ning jumped down and continued, "Husband, are you having an affair?"

"An affair? What do you mean!" Pretending to be confused, Yu Zhou could only let things slide for a while. However, the truth about Lan Tian Xi Xiang couldn't be kept secret forever. These two eccentric women were bound to cause trouble. And if Bing Ning found out that it was because of her going to the arena that this happened, wouldn't that be...? The more Yu Zhou thought about it, the less he dared to imagine.

"Yu Zhou, let me tell you, I'll get what's coming to me if you pee on me, you know that~" Bing Ning picked up the rabbit and said fiercely.

"Okay," Yu Zhou could only obediently nod.

"That's a good boy, your wife loves you!" she said, then grabbed Yu Zhou's arm. She truly was a master of disguise, changing her mind so quickly.

Yu Zhou was completely speechless, but given the situation, she was definitely going to study the Six Arts. "Bing Ning... my wife~" Before Yu Zhou could finish speaking, Bing Ning was already staring at him in a daze, so Yu Zhou had to quickly change his form of address.

"Bing Ning, how long are you going to stay this time?" Yu Zhou asked tentatively. Bing Ning looked around curiously, then replied casually, "Why would I go back~~~"

"You mean..." Yu Zhou's fingernails were already digging into his palm.

"Of course, it's for studying! I've inquired, and apparently the Six Arts Academy admits women," Bingning said happily. But suddenly, Bingning seemed to remember something. "Ah——————————, what did I just say? The Six Arts Academy admits women. You—didn't you?"

Yu Zhou was startled, already terrified by Bing Ning's loudspeaker, and fell to the ground.

"Tell me, is it you? Waaaaaah!" Bing Ning sat on the ground, shaking Yu Zhou repeatedly. "You heartless bastard! A wife who has shared hardship should not be abandoned, how could you... Why is my life so miserable! Waaaaah... You eat and drink the finest food, while I eat pickled vegetables and drink dirty water, how could you do this to me!"

Yu Zhou was being shaken and cried by Bing Ning, and he was already completely disoriented. And there was a possibility that this would continue.

Zhun, having long since lost patience, had callously flown away, leaving only Bing Ning and Yu Zhou glaring at each other...

[Found a Handsome Man]

"Tell me, what trouble have you gotten yourself into this time?" Yu Zhou suddenly spoke, breaking the silence. Bing Ning rubbed her hands awkwardly and said, "Hehe, it's nothing really." She gave an embarrassed smile.

"It's just that I accidentally fed the Juesha people something." Bing Ning's voice grew softer and softer.

"Jue Sha! You actually dared to touch them, and you're still alive?" Yu Zhou's anger turned to surprise, because if Bing Ning had really given Jue Sha something to eat, it should have been a laxative, and Bing Ning would definitely have been killed. But Bing Ning was still alive.

"Hehe, they actually wanted to kill me," Bing Ning said shyly. But this startled Yu Zhou so much that he broke out in a cold sweat.

"Why don't they kill you?" Yu Zhou asked, somewhat puzzled. "Husband, you want me dead, don't you~" Bing Ning asked, sobbing.

"No, go on."

"Hehe, actually I told them that this is how your master trains you. What use are you if you can't even endure this little hardship!" Bing Ning said righteously. "Jue Sha won't believe these words," Yu Zhou said coldly. Jue Sha would never listen to anyone except his master, not even his master's closest confidants.

"Haha, my husband is amazing! You guessed it right away. That's why the ape from Juesha came with me too." Bing Ning said, pointing to the man in black in the tree. The man in black in the tree was completely black, and his face was covered with a black mask. He exuded a chilling murderous aura. Even the animals dared not make a sound.

"Bingning, you go back to the academy first. I'll be there shortly," Yu Zhou said.

"But..." Bing Ning wanted to continue, but she was frightened by the ruthless gaze of the man in black on the tree and had no choice but to reluctantly leave with Xiao Bai, Xiao Hui, and Xiao Yin.
