Chapter 60: Peach Blossom Forest

  When the sound of swords clashing came from the Peach Blossom Forest near the Quiet Garden not far from the Back Garden, Hua Xiangrong excitedly turned around and rushed back to the Snow Spirit Garden, grabbed a handful of melon seeds and rushed out again.

  Because I ran too fast, I almost collided with a mysterious bell that came out of the Furong Garden in the middle of the night.

  "Miss? Where are you going?" Ling Tong saw Hua Xiang Rong and immediately changed direction, chasing after her.

  "Ding Dong!" Hua Xiang Rong hastily grabbed the bell and said: "Come on, let's go watch a play together!"

  "Miss... what's wrong with your hand?" Bell saw that Hua Xiang Rong had her hand wrapped in gauze, and a glimmer of unknown ferocity flashed in his eyes as he pulled her over: "What's wrong with your hand?"

  "It's nothing, just washing clothes." Hua Xiang Rong hurriedly smiled indifferently, then laughed heartily: "Let's go, come with me to watch the play!"

  "What's the play?" Ling Tong followed her, his hand gently grasping the gauze-wrapped hand of Hua Xiang Rong, and turned to look at her smiling profile: "Miss, aren't you sad?"

  "What am I sad about?" Hua Xiangyue smiled and walked with her into the backyard, but when they heard the sound of fighting inside had already stopped, she suddenly let out a long sigh: "It can't be, it's over that quickly?"

  As she spoke, Huaxiang Rong released the bell and casually placed a handful of melon seeds in her palm, then turned around and ran into the Peach Blossom Forest.

  "Hey, miss, wait...!" Lingling hurriedly chased after her, not understanding what had happened.

  Grandma, she was preparing melon seeds and planned to sit here eating melon seeds while watching Xiao Yuehan fight with the assassin, finding something for him to do as revenge, but how did it end so quickly?

  Hua Xiang Rong furrowed her delicate eyebrows, gazing at the peach blossoms that had been cut down in the peach blossom forest. She hastily hid under a peach blossom tree, crouching and quietly making her way inside.

  Suddenly, a sound of a long sword cutting through the air came from beside his ear, "Whoosh" and stopped beside him.

  Hua Xiang Rong's face changed in shock, her whole body trembling as she turned to look at the long sword that was suddenly pointing at her. She slowly raised her eyes to look at Xiao Yue Han who was standing above her with a commanding presence.

  "Uh..." Hua Xiang Rong gently pushed away his sword, seeing Xiao Yue Han staring at her coldly. She nervously forced out a brilliant smile.

  Hua Xiang Rong stood up, plucked the peach blossom petals that had fallen on her head, and tidied up the two small braids in front of her chest. She then raised her eyes, and the cold glint in Xiao Yue Han's eyes was gone, replaced by a calm and detached look.

  Hua Xiang Rong smiled knowingly and touched her nose, then turned around and left.

  It seems this excitement is not going to happen...

  Xiao Yuehan's martial arts skills were good or bad, she couldn't tell anymore. If only she had known earlier, she wouldn't have gone back to get the melon seeds. If she hadn't gotten the melon seeds, at least she would have been able to see a few rounds of their fight...

  "Miss......?" Ling Tong walked forward, looking at Hua Xiang Rong who sighed and came out: "What's wrong?"

  "It's nothing, go back to sleep." Hua Xiang Rong rolled her eyes and was about to leave in a lackluster manner when she suddenly stopped in her tracks and turned around to look at Ling Tong. The intentionally playful smile on her face had disappeared: "By the way, it's so late, what are you doing out here?"

  "Huh?" Ling Dong was taken aback: "Nothing..."

  "What's wrong?" Hua Xiang Rong narrowed her eyes, then immediately let it go: "Forget it, why do I ask so much? You're now a person of the Fu Rong Garden, that big-bellied woman might not necessarily want you to go out and buy something. Forget it, I'll go back to sleep, you rest early too." As she spoke, Hua Xiang Rong didn't look at Ling Dang again, nor did she look at Xiao Yue Han who was standing in the Peach Blossom Forest with his long sword put away, dragging her tired body back to the Snow Spirit Garden.
