438. The Feeling of Being Watched (III)

Translator: Storm in a Teacup

However, he had to lie in order to hide the problem of Ouyang Chuan from Shi Qingzhou.

Long Xiaoyuan and Shi Qingzhou had their breakfast quietly.

After a while, Liu Suifeng and Ouyang Chuan came.

Long Xiaoyuan invited them.

The two of them sat down together.

The waiter gave them some bowls and chopsticks.

The four of them ate together.

After everyone in the army finished their breakfast, they continued on their way.

This time, Long Xiaoyuan and Shi Qingzhou didn’t ride on horses. They casually chose a carriage. It was a random choice without any pattern.

Liu Suifeng did not choose to follow them with Ouyang Chuan this time.

He felt that the biggest threat to Long Xiaoyuan right now might be Ouyang, who was not aware of it.

Therefore, it was necessary to keep Ouyang away from Long Xiaoyuan.

Long Xiaoyuan and Shi Qingzhou continued to sleep in the carriage.

The journey lasted for more than twenty days.

This day, the army finally reached the border.

In other words, Ronghua City.

Ronghua City was the place where Wu Ronghan appeared and tried to kill Lord.

No one had any idea where Lord and Wu Ronghan were.

The Shadow Guardians lost track of Wu Ronghan a few days ago, not knowing where he was.

Ronghua City was more prosperous than Jiuyang City.

After all, this was the largest and most prosperous city near the border.

Upon entering Ronghua City, Long Xiaoyuan somehow felt he was under surveillance, which made him feel that someone was watching them.

However, the people who were watching them couldn’t be commoners, because it was a different feeling.

He could feel the ill intention.

Long Xiaoyuan asked Shi Qingzhou beside him, “Qingzhou, do you have any special feeling about entering Ronghua City?”

Shi Qingzhou didn’t understand what he meant and looked at him. “What kind of special feeling?”

Long Xiaoyuan thought for a moment and blinked. “Well...how do you feel?”

Shi Qingzhou frowned. “I feel nothing.”

Long Xiaoyuan pondered. Was Lord, who wanted to be the king, here in the city, targeting against him?

Long Xiaoyuan found that he was sensitive to gazes when he was in Songye City.

Now, it seemed his feelings were right.

If Lord was actually here, Ronghua City might be the place to solve everything.

It would be good in this case.

Long Xiaoyuan smiled at the thought.

“Okay. It’s fine if you don’t feel it. Let’s stay here. We might stay here for a long time.”

Shi Qingzhou looked at Long Xiaoyuan. “Will we stay here for a long time?”

“Yeah. We have to capture Wu Ronghan.”

Shi Qingzhou paused and nodded. “Okay.”

Liu Suifeng came over at this moment. “Where do we stay?”

Long Xiaoyuan thought about it and said, “Let’s stay in the Yamen.”

Shi Qingzhou had no objections. “Okay.”

Long Xiaoyuan smiled. “Let’ go.”

The group went to the Yamen of Ronghua City.

The local government had pretended not to know that Long Xiaoyuan had come. Now that they arrived, the officials came out to welcome them with profound respect and humility.

Long Xiaoyuan didn’t waste his breath, saying that they would stay in the Yamen.

For the sake of the officials’ safety, Long Xiaoyuan occupied the Yamen and drove out all of them.

The officials did not dare to object.

The Yamen was big enough to accommodate several thousand soldiers.

In addition, there were many soldiers surrounding the Yamen.

Qiu Ming again sealed the place like forming an iron bucket. This was ordered by Long Xiaoyuan.

He wanted to give outsiders the feeling that the security of the Yamen was very tight.

After entering the Yamen, Long Xiaoyuan and Shi Qingzhou chose the main room to stay.

Liu Suifeng and Ouyang Chuan were quite far away from them.

Long Xiaoyuan once suggested they stay next door to him and Shi Qingzhou.

But Liu Suifeng dragged Ouyang Chuan away with the reason that he liked the scenery in the front courtyard.

Shi Qingzhou looked at Liu Suifeng thoughtfully.

Long Xiaoyuan was about to enter the room, and when he saw Shi Qingzhou’s expression, he laughed. “Qingzhou, let’s go.”

Shi Qingzhou looked at him and said slowly. “Liu Suifeng looks strange.”

Long Xiaoyuan blinked. “Does he? I don’t think so. Why do you say he is strange?”

Shi Qingzhou frowned slightly and gazed at Long Xiaoyuan. “‘Don’t you think he’s strange?”

“No,” Long Xiaoyuan said immediately.

Shi Qingzhou lowered his head and said nothing.

Long Xiaoyuan took Shi Qingzhou’s hand. “Come on, Qingzhou. You like to fill your head with funny ideas. Let’s go in now.”

Shi Qingzhou didn’t say anything else, following Long Xiaoyuan inside.

Long Xiaoyuan let out a sigh of relief. He felt that Liu Suifeng had obviously changed these days.

However, Liu Suifeng could do nothing about it.

He felt guilty and stressed.

Long Xiaoyuan could not find any chance to be alone with Liu Suifeng. Otherwise, he would try to ease his anxiety.

However, this could only be solved by time.

Long Xiaoyuan stopped thinking about Liu Suifeng, pulling Shi Qingzhou onto the soft bed after they entered the room.

“Qingzhou, it had been a tiring journey. Let’s have a good rest.”

Shi Qingzhou felt tired as well, so he nodded without any objections. “Okay.”

They slept for a long time and woke up at midnight. They even missed dinner.

The two of them were woken up by their hunger at the same time.

Long Xiaoyuan’s stomach rumbled. Shi Qingzhou glanced at him, smiling. “Are you hungry?”

Long Xiaoyuan nodded earnestly. “Yes, I’m starving. I’m so wretched.”

Shi Qingzhou sat up from the bed. “Ask them to send bedtime snacks here.”

“Okay.” Long Xiaoyuan also got up. “They have to. I’m starving to death.”

As they spoke, they quickly got up from bed. Long Xiaoyuan went out and asked Shadow Guardians to get the meal...

Long Xiaoyuan and Shi Qingzhou did not dare to eat a lot. After all, it was late at night, and they could only walk in the room to help the digestion. Therefore, it was not wise to eat too much.

After bedtime snacks, Long Xiaoyuan took Shi Qingzhou’s hand and walked in the room for a while before they went back to the big bed again.

However, they were wide awake, so Long Xiaoyuan was in a rare mood to chat, saying, “Qingzhou, let’s chat.”

Shi Qingzhou looked at him, nodding. He paused for a while and said, “Can you tell me about the world you come from?”

“Of course.” Long Xiaoyuan did not refuse. “We have a lot of things that you can’t find here... planes, cannons, cars, trucks. Qingzhou, let me explain to you what those things are...”

Long Xiaoyuan started to speak in excitement.
