Chapter 471 -472: Stunned by Zhao Xiyan’s Unreasonableness

As soon as Lao Zhang made this statement, everyone instantly quieted down and stopped talking.

Following this, there were continuous clashing sounds, as if several people were sheathing their swords.

Qi Yue looked towards Zhao Xiyan, her mind full of questions.

“Are they not planning on searching anymore?”

“It seems so?” Zhao Xiyan nodded, helping Qi Yue to sit down on the soft chair in the pavilion.

“Listening to what Lao Zhang said, there also seems to be some tricks involved here.”

“Mhm.” Zhao Xiyan considerately took the teacup and directly handed it to her lips.

“It looks like the Nanyue Army isn’t all that unified after all.”

Qi Yue nodded as well.

“Indeed.”

That’s when the people outside finally started talking again.

“Lao Zhang, you say, when the day comes, will we really die?”

“Who knows, maybe we won’t even have to wait for that day, we might all be dead by then.”

“That can’t be right… We are the most formidable guards, nothing has happened in these waters for so many years, isn’t it because of us…”

“That was before, now it’s unpredictable!”

It quieted down again for a while, then someone suddenly spoke up.

“Lao Zhang is right, I’ve heard those things are nearly used up. Seeing as it’s the thunderstorm season again, perhaps this time those of us who die under the lightning will be us.”

“Indeed, last time there was a proposal for those skilled to gather those things as the success rate is higher.” Another person chimed in, “This time, it really might be our turn.”

Another bout of silence ensued.

“Should we run away?”

“Run away where? Are you not thinking about your family?”

After another quiet moment, several individuals left one after the other with heavy footsteps.

It seemed they had forgotten that they still had to capture the sudden intruders.

In the space, Qi Yue and Zhao Xiyan exchanged glances.

“Husband, the lightning, that thing, the talk about death! Could it be the answer we are seeking?”

Zhao Xiyan’s handsome brows slightly furrowed, “It could be… just…”

Having said this, he walked a few steps in the pavilion and turned back to look at Qi Yue.

“Gemidu City is known as the City of Lightning because every year during this season, there are continuous thunderstorms that can last as long as a month, and many people are struck dead by lightning… but what exactly is the connection between this and Nanling?”

Qi Yue also found it puzzling.

“Husband, we know too little; we still need to think of ways to gather more information.”

“Mhm, that’s the only way.” Zhao Xiyan nodded, “Luckily, we still have time.”

Qi Yue had also thought about capturing a guard to ask about the situation.

But there were downsides to doing so.

First, it was a question how much inside information these guards actually had.

Furthermore, the identity checks for these kinds of guards were extremely strict; once it was discovered someone was missing, the people behind them would become instantly alert.

If that were the case, even if they could have found out something, they wouldn’t be able to!

After discussing it, they went around the nearby camp of the Nanyue people again, but again to no avail.

Just like the result of Black Feather Guard’s investigation earlier.

On the surface, there seemed to be no problem whatsoever in this maritime area.

“Let’s go back, husband, I’m tired.”

“Okay.”

The two of them quickly returned to the inn, but Qi Yue’s mind was still preoccupied with the matter.

Even lying in bed, she continued to ponder until Zhao Xiyan held her close and kissed her, and she was still dazed, until a slight pain spread from the corner of her lips.

“Mmm…”

“Yueyue, what are you thinking about?”

Qi Yue snapped back to reality and shyly pushed him away.

“I’ve already said the first three months are unstable, how can you still act like this?!”

“Heh,” Zhao Xiyan pecked her near the ear, his face full of sly smiles.

“Yueyue didn’t stop me, how else would I have remembered this?”

“You did that on purpose!” Qi Yue said with a laugh as she rubbed her itchy ear.

“Then I’m getting serious now…” As he spoke, Zhao Xiyan kissed her and feigned draping himself over her.

Qi Yue quickly put her hand over his mouth, laughing as she pleaded for mercy.

“I believe you, you’re serious…stop messing around…”

Considering that she was pregnant, Zhao Xiyan stopped, hugged her, and did nothing further.

“Let’s sleep now, we can talk about anything else tomorrow, we have plenty of time, right?”

Qi Yue obediently nestled her head in his arms and hummed in agreement.

The next day, by the time Qi Yue woke up, the sun was already high in the sky.

She touched the quilt beside her, which was still warm, indicating that Zhao Xiyan had left just a short while ago, most likely to bring her some tea.

This guy was full of energy and could have easily gotten up to wander around.

But unless there was something important, after his morning exercise, he would sit by the bed reading, staying by her side.

Indeed, just as the smile on Qi Yue’s lips started to fade, she heard Zhao Xiyan’s clear voice.

“Yueyue~”

Zhao Xiyan, dressed in a white robe, entered the room with a smile, carrying a tray.

“My lord, where have you been?” Qi Yue focused on a bowl on the tray.

“Yesterday, I ordered someone to prepare soup early in the morning… Yueyue, have some tea first to moisten your throat.”

Zhao Xiyan said, setting the tray aside and handing her a cup of tea.

Qi Yue sipped the tea from his hand, feeling much refreshed.

“Thank you, my lord.”

“You’re welcome,” said Zhao Xiyan, smiling as he turned to bring her the bowl of soup.

“It was made by our own reliable people, Yueyue, please try it.”

The soup was made with a local type of flying fish, which was very tender and did not taste fishy at all.

Qi Yue enjoyed it immensely, and Zhao Xiyan simply watched her with a smile.

“If Yueyue likes it, I can ask someone to make it again.”

“It’s not necessary to go through all that trouble,” Qi Yue said with a chuckle. “I would be even happier if the flying fish were caught by you personally.”

“That’s not difficult, I’ll catch some in a while…”

As he spoke, Zhao Xiyan’s smiling eyes suddenly narrowed, “Yueyue, would you like to go to the seaside to catch fish?”

Qi Yue stared at him with a smile.

“Can we, my lord?”

Zhao Xiyan’s handsome lips puckered slightly, his face showing resignation.

“How could I refuse Yueyue?”

“Then this afternoon?”

“Hmm.”

Pleased with his answer, Qi Yue got out of bed happily to get ready and freshen up.

Zhao Xiyan kept calling from behind her, “Take it easy, it’s small in here…”

Before he could finish, Qi Yue had already returned to her private space.

The inn was small and also quite inconvenient, nothing compared to the ease of her own space.

Qi Yue quickly got ready.

But upon returning, she was thoroughly teased by Zhao Xiyan.

The reason was her sudden disappearance; what if she entered her space and couldn’t come out again!

Qi Yue was stunned by Zhao Xiyan’s unreasonable behavior and could only agree not to do it again.

When the couple finally made it to the hall leisurely, Qingzhu and others had already napped for the entire morning.

Qi Yue touched her forehead, feeling somewhat embarrassed.

She had forgotten.

Today was not only the bi-daily intelligence meeting but also a discussion about everyone’s next actions in Gemidu City!
