The Regent's little feral cat bites again

Chapter 165 Exposure
When Shao Yun saw Gu Chengyuan, his brows were shocked, and he quickly knelt down: "My subordinate is late, please punish me, my lord."

"It's okay." Gu Chengyuan's brows were light, and he scanned the purple and blue marks on his face, and asked again, "Is there any injury?"

Shao Yun frowned and lowered his head: "It's nothing serious."

Gu Chengyuan nodded lightly: "Get up."

Yu Jian glanced at the scars on Shao Yun's face, feeling inexplicably embarrassed. After all, he had just reached a consensus on cooperation, and his subordinates beat Gu Chengyuan's people like this...

He coughed lightly, and whispered close to Gu Chengyuan's ear: "My lord, there are some doctors in the village, why don't I take Commander Shao to see him for a diagnosis and treatment?"

Gu Chengyuan paused when he heard that, and glanced in Shao Yun's direction. His arm was still dripping with crimson liquid, which merged with the fire behind him, looking extremely terrifying.

"Go."

Gu Chengyuan nodded, Shao Yun couldn't resist anymore, no matter how many questions he had, he couldn't ask at this time, so he could only obediently follow Yu Jian and leave.

The situation on Xuan Yinruo's side is not so optimistic. Not long after she got the necklace and left, she suddenly felt a brief throbbing pain in her body. This feeling used to only appear when she changed from a human to a cat. Today I don’t know why I feel such pain even though I’m still a cat.

After she woke up a little bit, she realized that Xia Xin had brought her back to her room. She hurriedly escaped while he was not paying attention, and she didn't forget to grab a piece of clothing before leaving.

If Xuan Yin didn't look back at Cheng Yuan's room, if Xia Xin just pushed the door and entered, she might be caught straight away.

So she jumped directly over the stockade, entered the deep mountain forest from the backyard, and finally jumped down into a cave on the cliff.

And Xia Xin chased all the way, lost his way on the high cliff, he frowned slightly, and took advantage of the bright moonlight to take a panoramic view of the cliff, but he didn't see any trace of the cat, it seemed to disappear out of thin air without a trace no trace.

Xia Xin raised her hand and stroked her chin, and glanced down the mountain, feeling a little apprehensive, this kitten couldn't see the way at night and fell down because of the pain, right?
However, his intuition told him that things would not be so simple. He squinted his eyes, and his figure flashed into the short bushes beside him. He held his breath, concealed his figure, and guarded quietly.

When he was about to fall asleep, there was a slight movement from the cliff on the right. He opened his sleepy eyes, glanced over there, and his body jolted awake completely.

The moonlight was still shining brightly on the ground, and it also clearly reflected a slender hand on the edge of the cliff. After a while, the beautiful and delicate face of the woman was completely reflected in Xia Xin's pupils.

Like an elf that descended from the sky, it is so beautiful and indescribable, but it seems a little bit embarrassed when it strays into the mortal world...

He squatted on the spot blankly, his head stopped thinking for a while, and when his figure disappeared completely in a few seconds, his pupils turned slightly, and they gained a little focus.

After a long time, Xia Xin slapped his face violently. After feeling the pain, he was sure that the scene just now was not a dream. His lips moved and he whispered: "That is... a mountain spirit?"

The moment when the woman came out of the cliff just now came back to his mind, and he suddenly remembered... the clothes she was wearing seemed to be the one that the cat took away just now.

Xia Xin's face was shocked, she jumped out of the jungle, quickly came to the edge of the cliff and looked down, as expected, she saw the cave attached to the cliff.

He breathed for a moment, jumped up, took out the firebox he carried with him and lit it, and began to search carefully in the cave. When he felt the small strand of soft white hair on the ground, he seemed to be taken aback. The body stepped back suddenly, and the things in his hands fell.

After taking a deep breath, he clenched his fists, picked up the cat's fur, and turned back to the village.

After Xuan Yinruo regained her human form, she hurried back to her room before the bonfire dinner was over. She jumped in from the window sill at the back. Gu Chengyuan happened to push the door open and saw Xuan Yinruo in a long robe mopping the floor like a thief.
He also realized what had happened, swept her clothes that didn't look right, his eyes turned cold: "Did Xia Xin see you?"

Xuan Yinruo realized what he meant, shook his head quickly, and briefly explained the thrilling scene that just happened.

Gu Chengyuan's face was still not very good-looking, he took out a clean robe from the side cabinet, and threw it to her: "This is given to me by Yu Jian, it's all new, you wear this."

Xia Xin's sleeves were very long, and Xuan Yinruo couldn't even stretch out her hands, so she barely hugged the clothes, responded obediently, and turned around behind the screen to change clothes.

As soon as the clothes were changed, Xia Xin knocked on the door: "Is Mr. Gu there? I just heard that Uncle Ning said that he came back."

Xuan Yinruo and Gu Chengyuan looked at each other, with a bit of arrogance and irritability in their eyes, they scanned around the room where they could hide, and finally chose - under the bed.

After Xuan Yinruo's body was well concealed, Gu Chengyuan picked out a half white fox's tail that Xia Xin had previously collected from a side cabinet, and stuffed it beside the bed.

Outside the door, the more Xia Xin thought about it, the more she felt that something was wrong, and she couldn't help knocking on the door again: "Is Master Gu asleep?"

The door opened from the inside, Gu Chengyuan's eyes were clear, but with a bit of coldness: "What's the matter?"

Xia Xin wanted to stretch his head to look inside the room, but Gu Chengyuan covered his eyes tightly, so he had no choice but to look back, looked at Gu Chengyuan and said with a smile,
"I just saw that the adult's cat seemed to be not feeling well. I was about to take it back to the room to let it rest, but it disappeared in the blink of an eye. Did it come back?"

Gu Chengyuan's eyes turned cold, and he turned his body slightly so that Xia Xin could just see the head of the bed without seeing any other unnecessary decorations: "It just fell asleep."

Xia Xin frowned slightly when she saw the short tail, and asked again: "Then can I go in and have a look?"

"I can't." Gu Chengyuan's voice was cold and impatient, "I'm going to sleep too."

Hearing that he called himself "my lord", Xia Xin also realized something, and she didn't dare to force her way in, so she could only nod her head: "Well, if the eldest...the lord has any needs, feel free to come to the next door to find me."

Gu Chengyuan ignored him and closed the door tightly.

Xia Xin stood there for a while, still having doubts in her heart: "Could it be...she really didn't change from a cat?"

The best way at this moment is to search the house, if the person on the bed is not a cat, then all doubts will be clear at a glance, but this is what makes it so difficult, Gu Chengyuan's identity makes him dare not force his way in.

Xia Xin sighed and had to obediently go back to the room.

When there was no movement outside the house, Gu Chengyuan went to the table and sat down, poured a cup of hot tea, and said, "Come out."
