Chapter 224 224; Does She Like You Or She Is Doing Out Of Gratitude?
" I will start training of course, I need to be a little bit stronger atleast be very versed with arrow shooting or horse riding." She merrily responded.
" Horse riding? Arrow shooting? Are you certain Xiao Xue?" She inquired curiously intrigued, it wasn't bad to learn those two protective aspects.
"Of course I know what I want to do, you better train too, and be able to protect yourself." She scornfully replied.
" All right alright, you are smart. " Xie complimented her before they arrived at the arrow shooting ground and found others were there shooting.
The princesses and princes bowed their heads and moved away giving her space, they knew she was protected by princess Jun Lin Wei and if anything happened to her it will pinned on them.
"Princess.." one of the trainers approached her as he respectfully bowed greeting her.
" Wu Xue, my name is Wu Xue.." she coldly spoke out, she didn't like that name Princess at all and didn't want people to call her like that, she knew she wasn't a Princess who belonged to this kingdom.
" Yes Wu Xue, what can I do for you Miss?" He politely inquired as he sneaked a few peeks here and there.
"What can you do? I want to train shooting the arrows." She proudly spoke out, her chest puffed out arrogantly.
"I will train you.." Fei held her tiny hand and walked forward dragging her before they arrived near where the bows and arrows were placed.
He picked up a bow and tested it's elasticity and strength before picking up an arrow to test it if it was good stuff.
He shot an arrow as it pierced through the target, "good stuff, come here..." He signaled her to move forward as she went and stood infront of him.
Standing behind her, he thought her how to stand, aim and also what to watch over, he taught her on how to position her hands and how to pull the string.
She was elated as she held the bow, she knew this was just a first step but still it made her happy.
They began practicing while the other princesses and princes chose other sections for training.
The trainer also walked away silently, she was a walking disaster so it was better avoiding her at all costs.
Xie also began doing little practices here and there trying to learn a few things as she watched Jun Wu Xue being trained.
Inside the forest they had hunted enough wild game before they returned back home.
"Aiguo, tomorrow if we go out to hunt, you have to teach me how to do it, I want to learn on how to hunt." She requested as they carried the wild chickens.
"Yeah sure." He nodded his head as they arrived, they walked into the kitchen as he began by putting the fire on and placing a pot full of water onto the fire.
She scooped some wine into her bowl before walking out and sitting down on the Veranda.
Aiguo joined her as he sat down next to her, "don't you feel intoxicated drinking wine all the time?" He curiously inquired as he waited for the water to boil.
"Why would I? I feel happy drinking it, it's like we are made to accompany each other." She cheerfully responded as her hair was buned up loosely and a simple wood hair pin was stuck in the middle holding it in tightly together.
Her skin looked soft and milky without any blemishes, he lightly frowned, she might belong to an aristocratic family with her noble acts and aura.
She sipped the wine merrily, it was as if everything else was beneath her and her warm radiance gave people an idea of getting closer to her.
"Miss can we stay here a little bit longer until my brother gets better? Don't worry about food, I will hunt daily." He politely requested.
" All right, so long as you have ways to get food to feed yourselves." She accepted his request after all the house was so big and she will feel lonely without anyone accompanying her.
"Thank you Miss for your generosity." He was grateful, his brother hasn't recovered yet and he needed more time to recuperate, getting out of this forest, the further they went where there was no magic protection, they will be attacked by beasts and all kinds of creatures, so if his brother was well, they will easily stay safe and escape any dangers.
They went quite as Luo Wei went on drinking with her wine.
Ming Xie and her entire team has been going on and now it was getting dark and they had hunted a few wild hares.
"Let's rest here first and have some roasted meat." She stated as they sat down on the grassland where there were no trees and collected a few firewoods before creating a bonfire.
It was night time and due to the season changes, it was cold and freezing, the cold wind breezed.
"Shhh..." Lin Hong inhaled loudly as he rubbed his hands together, it was the first time he is experiencing this kind of cold weather out in the middle of the forest.
"It's damn cold! Ming Xie, you went through this place, was it this cold? " Lin Huang curiously inquired.
" No, the temperatures were warm even at night which surprises me, the calm and captivating aura that was spreading in within the forest isn't there anymore, it's replaced with this cold, that's why I said this place is strange and had changed. " She stated as she skinned the hare.
"Then that sounds so strange.." Lin Hong lightly remarked as they began roasting the hare.
Lin Hong and Lin Huang crumbled together as they tried warming themselves across the bonfire.
Zhou Hua joined them as he sat down beside them while Scorpion did the roasting with Ming Xie.
"This place is freezing, it seems as time goes by the colder the place gets, will we survive in here until tomorrow?" Zhou Hua inquired worriedly, they hadn't thought the climate will change once they get inside the forest.
"Ssssss... I think we need to build a small hut to shield us, what will happen if it rains?" Lin Hong thought out.
