Chapter 339: Eggs Can’t be Placed in the Same Basket

Wen Ruhua stared at Ning Shu in astonishment. She had been acting sympathetic and gentle just a moment ago, but in the next moment, she had thrown him under the horse heartlessly. Wen Ruhua was so stunned that he didn’t know how to react.

He Xiaohua ran out with a pan, grabbed Wen Ruhua’s ear, and twisted. “Who did you say you were eloping with? Your guts have sure gotten fat! You’re already married to me, yet you’re actually trying to elope with someone else!?”

“Let go of my ear! He Xiaohua, I told you to let go of my ear!” Wen Ruhua’s face was completely pale but he couldn’t struggle free from He Xiaohua’s grasp.

“Bai Qinxiang, how could you betray me? I treated you kindly in vain!” shouted Wen Ruhua. When he saw that Bai Qinxiang was drinking tea calmly while he was in such a pitiful state, he wanted to just die.

“Cousin, what exactly is your relationship with Ruhua? Why does he want to elope with you?” asked He Xiaohua.

Ning Shu spread her hands helplessly. “He wants to escape from you, so he tried to get me involved. He tried to trick me into eloping with him since I have a carriage and it’d be faster to get away on that than on foot.”

Wen Ruhua almost coughed out blood. He bellowed, “Bai Qinxiang, you bitch!”

“Cousin, we’ll leave first.” He Xiaohua dragged Wen Ruhua away by the ear.

Ning Shu called for Yue Lan to come sit down. “What a waste to leave without even taking a bite of all this food.”

Yue Lan nodded. “He Xiaohua truly is a very amazing woman.”

“Miss, when will we be leaving? This servant seriously doesn’t want to sleep in a tent anymore,” said Yue Lan with a pitiful pout.

As Ning Shu ate, she said, “We’ll leave tomorrow.”

“Great!”

After lunch, Yue Lan enthusiastically packed up their stuff. Ning Shu divided her possessions into two halves and gave one half to Yue Lan while keeping the other on her. Yue Lan looked at the banknotes, then asked, “Miss, why are you giving this servant so many banknotes?”

“Eggs can’t be placed in the same basket. If something unexpected happens, we end up eating dirt,” said Ning Shu as she lay on the bed to watch Yue Lan pack up.

Since they were going to start traveling again tomorrow, Ning Shu and Yue Lan went to sleep early to leave at dawn tomorrow morning.

However, in the middle of the night, someone pushed her awake. In her drowsiness, she thought it was Wen Ruhua again and hastily pulled out the heirloom sword to jab frantically at the person near the bed.

However, she didn’t hit even once.

“Miss, it’s me.” The hidden guard’s voice appeared. “Horse thieves have come.”

“What?” Ning Shu woke up with a quiver. “What has come?”

Yue Lan had woken up as well. When she heard what the hidden guard said, her face immediately went pale. “M… Miss, bandits have come.”

Ning Shu almost jumped off the bed. Why would bandits come in the middle of the night to this tiny village? Why were they looting in the middle of the night? It wasn’t like they were freakin’ thieves.

There was no scene like this in the original storyline.

What was going on?

Ning Shu suddenly had a bad premonition. She hastily put on her shoes. When she got out of the tent, she saw that the area in the direction of the village chief’s house was brightly lit.
