Pampered Poisonous Royal Wife

Chapter 107

In the middle of the night, the entire Tomb City was quiet. Suddenly, a streak of fiery light rose up into the sky, dyeing the night red.

The officials in charge of patrolling the streets were startled awake by the ringing of a gong. They put on their clothes and looked towards the fire. When they saw it, they turned pale with fright. "Isn't that the direction of the Nebula Market?"

Very soon, half of the Tombal Mountain City was awoken. Before Cao Yunnian could put on his clothes, he had already run to the entrance of the Nebula Market.

There were already people fighting the fire, but it was not easy to put it out.

Cao Yunsheng broke out in cold sweat. "What about Miss Mu? Is there anyone else in the neon city square? "

"The door seems to be locked. There should be no one inside …" The person speaking was not sure either. After all, there had been a lot of things happening recently. Miss Mu and the others had been staying in the Nebula Market all this time.

"No one is good, no one is good …" Before he could finish wiping his sweat, he heard a cry for help from upstairs.

"Help! Help! "

Cao YunNian suddenly raised his head and saw shadows of people on the third floor. Suddenly, the windows were opened and quilts were thrown down one by one. A rope then fell down from the windows.

Cao Yunnian's face turned pale, he had just received a reward from the Emperor. If something were to happen to Mu Yunyao at this time, then his position would probably be ruined. He hurriedly ordered the guards below: "Quickly save them, don't let the fire burn the cloth rope, quickly!"

Upstairs, Mu Yunyao supported Su Qing, "Mother, don't be afraid. You can just climb down on a rope. It won't hurt to throw a quilt underneath you."

"Yao'er, you go first!"

"Mother, hurry up. Stop dawdling." Mu Yunyao pushed the rope into Su Qing's hands and then pushed her out of the window, "Si Qin, you're number two. Protect my mother well."

"Yes, Miss, don't worry." Si Qin nodded her head heavily and followed Su Qing's footsteps down the rope.

Seeing that Su Qing had safely landed on the ground, Mu Yunyao heaved a sigh of relief and directed Jin Lan and the rest down.

"Miss, you go first!"

"I'm fine, you guys hurry up and leave."

By the time Su Qingwu arrived at the Nebula Market on his horse, the fire had already stopped.

Cao YunNian's face turned pale and his body was soon to be drenched in cold sweat. He shouted to the people upstairs, "Lady Mu, come down quickly!" Mu Yunyao was the last to leave the Nebula Market. Due to the large fire's intensity, she had no choice but to splash water on herself and quickly slid down the cloth rope. From time to time, sparks would fall from her side, and the wound on her palm would grind to the point of breaking.

The ground began to burn, and it quickly swept forward.

Su Qing was so scared that she almost fainted. She shrieked, "Yao'er!"

"Miss, be careful!"

Mu Yunyao lowered her head to look at the ground before fiercely biting her lips and letting go of her hand.

She tightly shut her eyes, trying her best to curl up, not letting herself fall too heavily. Just as she was about to receive the pain, she suddenly fell into a embrace filled with a cold fragrance. Su Qingwu dismounted from his horse, and immediately saw the dangerous scene of Mu Yunyao hovering in midair. Without much time to think, he quickly ran down, and seeing that the cloth rope was burning, he wanted to rush up to save her, but then he saw Mu Yunyao directly release her hand and jump down! Fortunately, he reacted in time and reached out his hand to catch the person. Otherwise, this attack would have …

He would probably lose half his life.

"Miss Mu, are you alright?"

Mu Yunyao opened her eyes and couldn't help but cough. After confirming that Su Qing and the rest were safe and sound, she fainted. Su Qingwu's hands tightened around the person in his arms. His entire body was covered with water, and his face was covered with a layer of black ash. However, he didn't seem to care at all. He only felt waves of warmth and softness. Her figure was slender and petite, but it was as if she had no bones. Now, she suddenly fainted and her entire body's weight fell into his arms, causing her to fall …

The strangeness in his heart suddenly deepened.

Jin Lan and Jin Qiao hurriedly went forward to receive Mu Yunyao and softly called out to her. "Miss, Miss, you're awake?"

Seeing that Mu Yunyao's life was in no danger, Cao Yunsheng heaved a sigh of relief. The anger in his heart burned even brighter than the flames in front of him, "Why would there suddenly be a fire? Furthermore, the person inside the building has not come out yet the door has been locked? "

The weight in her arms suddenly disappeared. Su Qingwu dropped her arms and clenched her fists tightly, her eyes falling on the door of the Rainbow Cloud Workshop, which had not collapsed yet. She could vaguely see the big lock on the door through the firelight, causing her face to instantly darken.

He was here to escort the emperor's reward. He had just sent the reward into the Nebula Market in the morning, yet it had been completely burned down in the night. How could he report back to the capital like this?

Inspector Zhang also rushed over. When he saw Nebula Market that was engulfed in flames in front of him, his vision went dark and he almost fell to the ground.

Su Qingwu turned her head to look at him, and her voice contained a trace of pressure. "Great Zhang, you have to investigate this matter thoroughly, otherwise I really wouldn't be able to report this to the Emperor."

"Don't worry, Sir Su. This official will definitely investigate this matter thoroughly." Patrol Officer Zhang gritted his teeth in hatred and immediately sent people to search around the surroundings to see if there were any clues left behind.

When Mu Yunyao woke up again, she had already returned home. Su Qing was sitting beside her, weeping.

"Mother …"

Su Qing trembled and quickly wiped her tears away. She said in surprise, "Yao'er, you're awake? "Great, mother is worried to death."

Mu Yunyao sat up, her palm touching the bed surface, causing her to secretly inhale a breath of cold air in pain.

"You have wounds on your hands and body. Don't move. If you want to be a mother, you can do it for me."

Mu Yunyao insisted on sitting up and snuggled up against Su Qing's chest. Ignoring the wounds on her hand, she clutched the hem of her robe tightly. "Mother, I'm sorry!"

Su Qing was stunned for a moment, and then her tears started to fall even harder, "Silly child, it's good that you're safe. Don't be afraid, you don't have to be afraid."

Mu Yunyao only cried and did not speak. She kept apologizing to Su Qing and had no way of telling her mother that she was the one who set the fire going. There was no way to make her mother not worry about her, so she could only use this method to ease the guilt in her heart.

Su Qing held her in her arms and patted her back just like when she was young, "It's alright, it's fine now …"

After a long while, Mu Yunyao finally managed to gradually regain control of her emotions. "Mother, how's Nebula Workshop?"

"The fire burned everything." Su Qing had previously felt heartache, but now that she saw Mu Yunyao safe and sound, she no longer cared about those worldly possessions. Instead, she comforted her, "Yao`er, Nebula Workshop is gone. Let's start again. Don't be too sad."

Mu Yunyao nodded. "I understand. Don't be sad mother, I'll definitely open an even better workshop for you in the future."

"Fine, whatever Yao'er says is fine."

Mu Yunyao rubbed herself against Su Qing's bosom. "I want to sleep with mother tonight."

Su Qing caressed her hair and smiled gently, "Alright, then let's sleep together." She was also afraid, so she hugged Mu Yunyao to ease her mind.

Mu Yunyao snuggled up to Su Qing. The light in her eyes dimmed, and a boundless coldness emerged. Mother, don't worry. We will soon rebuild the neon city! After about an hour, Mu Yunyao's breathing stabilized. Only then did Su Qing slowly open her eyes and slightly turn her head to look at her daughter's peaceful sleeping appearance. Her eyes flashed with intense heartache.
