The Cold King and His Spoilt Wife: His Genius Consort Is Breathtaking
Chapter 89 - Found the Exit
She stopped the boy and was about to say something, but the boy interjected with shining eyes. “Sister, I have a mother. I’m not a b*stard anymore.”
The anticipation in his eyes stooped Xia Muqing from breaking his beautiful dream. She wanted to say something but she couldn’t bring herself to do so now.
The boy followed them happily.
Xia Muqing stayed in the courtyard alone and sighed.
She stopped thinking about him and began to observe everything around her, trying to figure out a way to get out.
At night, she finally discovered a strange thing. The periphery of the village seemed to be wrapped in a thin membrane. Nothing could be seen when she was inside, but once she tried to leave the village, she would be blocked by something invisible.
After three days of investigation, she finally found a breakthrough. There was a well on the west side of the village, and there would be ripples from time to time.
She had observed the well for three days. These ripples were connected to the surrounding barriers, and she felt that this should be the exit.
She threw a stone into the well and without making a sound, the stone disappeared. She picked up another bigger rock.
Normally, she could easily pick up a rock with one hand. Now, she hugged it with both hands and used all her strength to move it to the well. When she reached the well, she was already sweating profusely.
She cursed again and was desperate to leave.
After throwing the rock in, it disappeared as expected.
It seemed like she was right. If she wanted to leave, she just had to jump. Just as she was about to close her eyes and jump, she opened them again.
She stared at the well for a long moment, then sighed and pulled her feet back.
She was still worried about that boy. How was he now?
Since she couldn’t forget him, she decided to take a look.
Xia Muqing asked the villagers about the woman’s identity. She was a famous person. She was married to the boy’s father previously. After he died, she quickly curried favor with the master of a rich family in the village and became his concubine.
After Xia Muqing heard that, she rushed to Old Master Wang’s house.
It was easy to find. All she had to do was head to the most luxurious residence in the village.
Xia Muqing didn’t barge in. The main reason was that she couldn’t do it with her current skills. So she could only resort to the old method.
She climbed over the wall.
Fortunately, the houses in the village weren’t too tall. Xia Muqing used a tree to slowly climb onto the wall.
She was already panting from exhaustion. She sat on the wall and wiped the sweat off her face. She despised this wretched place again. She had never been in such a sorry state.
Crash! She sat on the ground. Her fall attracted some people.
A few servants walked over. Xia Muqing quickly rolled and hid in nearby bushes before avoiding them.
Just then, a stray cat jumped off the wall.
“So it’s a cat. Xiaohong, you’re making a huge fuss.”
The person called Xiaohong said, “Sister Yun, there have been too many things happening recently. I’m a little worried. That child has fled countless many times. Every time he is captured, he is beaten up badly. He looks extremely pitiful.”
However, Xiaoyun was ultimately still the older one. She warned, “No matter how much you pity him, you can’t be soft-hearted. If he escapes again, we’re finished.”
After saying that, she sighed and said, “Who asked him to have such a mother?”
With that, she left, leaving Xiaohong alone by the field. She came to gather firewood.
Xia Muqing could hear them clearly. Her intuition told her that the child they were talking about was that boy.
When Xiaoyun approached, she quickly subdued her from behind and covered her mouth when she was about to scream. She then pulled her behind the bushes.
She lowered her voice and said, “Don’t move. I just want to ask you a few questions. If you cooperate, I’ll let you off. Otherwise, you don’t have to live.”
