Chapter 64: Strange Woman
Seven days after leaving Liu Clan.
Turning from the main road onto a small path, Lu Jianjia and Gu Shiyi rode together on a single horse into a patch of woods.
A month had passed unnoticed since leaving Baici Town. The last spring snow falling in Qingsong City was also today’s final heavy snowfall.
The warm sun shone brightly, the ice and snow melted, and early spring had arrived.
Lu Jianjia patted Gu Shiyi, her face turning slightly red. “Stop for a second.”
“What for?”
Gu Shiyi had completely fallen into the persona of an icy woman, his face frosted with coldness and his voice aloof and distant.
“I… I want to… relieve myself…”
Lu Jianjia’s face flushed slightly as she sighed inwardly.
No matter her background, when traveling through the jianghu, she still had to find an unoccupied patch of grass.
“Lazy people always have so many bathroom breaks.”
Lu Jianjia immediately thumped him on the back.
Gu Shiyi had to halt the horse. As the horse stopped, his expression flickered slightly. After dismounting, Lu Jianjia looked left and right, anxiously preparing to go relieve herself.
“Wait.”
Gu Shiyi grabbed her wrist and called out coldly, “Come out!”
The surroundings were silent, with only the wind blowing with a bit of commotion.
“The horse dung is still warm!”
The “Ice Beauty” pointed toward a steaming pile of horse manure under a large tree not far away.
