Chapter 90 Arrival at Dragon Tiger City
Chapter 90 Arrival at Dragon Tiger City
After everyone got on the carriage, Li Mulan revealed a look of pain and leaned weakly on Qingyu's shoulder, "Oh no, no, sister, help me up."
Seeing her acting like a spoiled brat, Qingyu tapped her unhappily, "You were full of energy just now, why are you so exhausted now?"
Li Mulan smiled a little guilty, "Sister knows my mother. If she really finds out, she will drown me with her tears."
"You," Qingyu patted her head with some heartache. On the surface, she seemed so heartless, but to the people she really cared about, she would always report good news but not bad news. "Where are you hurt?"
Li Mulan leaned into Qingyu's arms, her tone a little aggrieved, "My back hurts."
"Can you still bear it? Do you want me to find a place where no one is around to help you check it out?"
Li Mulan showed her little face and smiled, "It's okay, let's wait until we get to Longhu City to see it, otherwise if mom and the others find out, they'll nag us again."
"Okay, then come ride with me?"
"Yeah, just like when I was little, my sister takes care of me."
Qingyu touched her delicate little face very gently, and recalled the first time she saw Li Mulan, when she was still a child of eleven or twelve years old. She fell in love with her at first sight. Although she was full of hostility and hatred at that time, when she saw such a sunny child, she just liked him for no reason...
Chu Chenfeng, who was not far away, watched the two of them until they rode away on their horses. He then played with a porcelain bottle in his hand, not knowing what he was thinking.
"Master, shall we set off too?"
"Ah."
However, they didn't realize that there was a pair of eyes not far away watching the master and servant. It was He Tian. He was hiding behind a big tree not far away, looking at the master and servant in confusion, "Why are they so similar? Their movements are similar, and the skills just now..."
Although he was concentrating on fighting with Si Tianlin, he still saw some of this man's moves. "The face is not right, but..." He Tian suddenly thought of something and laughed, "I almost forgot that you have a master of disguise. No wonder I didn't even see it."
Without the assassination of the Killer Alliance, the journey became much easier and they soon arrived at Longhu City.
The fat man who came late with the reinforcements today was none other than the lord of Longhu City, Zhang Fuyuan.
At this moment, he was smiling and saying to everyone in the Li family, "I have already arranged everything for this Fulai Inn. Everyone can wash up and have a meal. If there is anything else, we can talk about it tomorrow."
Li Yi stepped forward and bowed to Zhang Fuyuan, "Thank you, City Lord."
"You're welcome. Today was really... Hehehe, I was late. Luckily nothing happened."
"No, it is a blessing for our Li family that the city lord can arrive in time."
Zhang Fuyuan smiled like Maitreya Buddha, very kindly, "Well, no more small talk today. When you all have rested well, I will host a gathering with Master Li and all of you." As he said that, he saluted towards Master Li's carriage, and then without any further delay, he left with his people after making arrangements.
Huo Yuanruo and He Tian stood at the back, looking at the chubby figure and wanted to laugh.
"It's really hard for him. Even riding a horse is hard."
"I heard his name is Zhang Fuyuan, and he's really round, hehehe."
Today, no one wasted too much time. After all, after days of traveling and worrying, everyone can finally have a good rest and relax.
Li Mulan was taking a bath at the moment, her little face was red and adorable. She lay on the edge of the tub, closed her eyes and rested, feeling so comfortable, so comfortable.
After a while, someone opened the door and came in. She thought it was a whisper and didn't even open her eyes, "Sister, give me some more hot water, I want to soak for a while longer."
The person who came in smiled gently and walked into the inner room. When he saw the large red bruise on the snow-white back, the wooden barrel in his hand fell to the ground.
Li Mulan was startled and turned around. The person who came in was not Qingyu, but her mother, Zhang.
Seeing Zhang covering her mouth in disbelief, tears dripping down her face, Li Mulan was at a loss. She wanted to go forward to comfort her, but she was still naked, so she could only shrink into the tub, leaving only her head outside. "Mother... why are you here? I thought it was my sister."
Zhang controlled her emotions and took two steps forward, "Let me take a look, how is your injury?"
Li Mulan not only did not move forward, but even shrank back into the water, "Mom~"
Zhang's tears fell even more violently, and she cried, "I'm your mother, let me see what happened? My daughter is injured, and you won't even let me see?"
Li Mulan didn't know how to react. "Oh, Mom, I'm fine, please don't cry." She approached Zhang and stretched out her hand to wipe her tears, but Zhang grabbed her hand.
"My dear daughter, please let me take a look. I will take a look at your injuries, okay?"
Li Mulan was embarrassed. She was very conservative and she was naked. Even if she was her mother, she couldn't let her see her naked.
Zhang saw her embarrassment and immediately burst into laughter, "Why? Are you still shy in front of your mother? When you were little, your mother gave you a bath every day. How could you not see it?"
Li Mulan's face froze, "How can it be the same?"
"How is it different? No matter how old you are, you are still my daughter."
Seeing Zhang's persistence, Li Mulan said helplessly, "It's really okay, I'll just ask my sister to apply some medicine to me later."
"Okay, I believe you, but I just want to see. Just treat it as my heart, okay?"
Li Mulan sighed softly and could only turn her back, exposing her injured back.
Zhang looked at the slender back. The back that should have been flawless and white was now covered with large bruises. By tomorrow, it would probably be all blue. She touched it gently with trembling hands, "Does it hurt?"
Li Mulan pulled the corner of her mouth, "It doesn't hurt anymore."
Zhang smiled bitterly. How could it not hurt? Her daughter should have been brought up in pampered care, but...
"How did it hurt?"
Li Mulan pouted, "I accidentally hit a tree."
It's easy to say, how could crashing into a tree cause such a serious injury? Zhang didn't dare to think about it, and wiped her eyes, "Qingyu, where is the medicine?"
Li Mulan immediately turned around and looked at Zhang with a smile on her face. "Yes, yes, my sister has a treasure chest. She has everything I want. Don't worry, mother."
Seeing such a well-behaved daughter, Zhang's heart ached even more, but she had to appear normal on the surface, "Okay, that's good." Zhang knew that her daughter was uncomfortable now, and was afraid that it would affect her rest, so she touched Li Mulan's head and said, "Then remember to ask her to apply medicine for you. Have a good rest today. Mother... will come to see you tomorrow."
"Well, okay, Mom, you should go and rest soon. You must be tired after running around for so many days."
"Okay, Mom will go and rest too."
Looking at Zhang who left with a heavy heart, Li Mulan sighed. Perhaps this is the burden of happiness.
