Chapter 203 Forced to eavesdrop for a whole night
"Really?" Ye Shijun stepped forward, examined the boulder from top to bottom, then turned to them and asked, "Miss Du, Cousin Yunying, are you sure you want to go over there?"
Du Anwen frowned slightly, hesitating whether to give up, but Fan Yunying beside her nodded without hesitation, "Second cousin, please find a way to let us get over there!"
Ye Shijun smirked and then gestured with his chin toward Gu Simo, "Xin'er, you take them there."
Gu Simo suppressed a laugh, stepped forward, grabbed Du Anwen with one hand and Fan Yunying with the other, and used her lightness skill to fly towards the top of the boulder—
"what!"
Hearing their screams, Ye Shijun chuckled and shrugged.
Before long, he saw his wife fly back from the other side of the boulder, and he immediately spread his arms to catch her.
Meanwhile, Fan Yunying's voice came from the other side of the stone, "Dr. Hua, why did you run away? You...you remember to come and pick us up!"
Neither of them said a word, they just kept chuckling to themselves.
Seeing Fan Yunying keep shouting, Du Anwen was furious. "What are you still shouting for? Shut up!"
"Miss Du..."
"You idiot, who said we wanted to come in? Now look what's happened, how are we supposed to get out?" Du Anwen wanted to slap her twice.
They were supposed to be following Prince Cheng, but they'd been discovered, so they should have changed their plans. But this fool, instead of avoiding attention, begged others to bring them in!
Hearing her scolding, Fan Yunying finally realized what had happened, and immediately felt guilty and anxious. "I... Miss Du... I didn't mean it... I thought..."
"Shut up! I don't want to hear what you're saying right now!" Du Anwen glared at her fiercely and walked away angrily.
Since we're already here, we have no choice but to bite the bullet and take a look.
She was certain that Prince Cheng had brought Ye Shishujin inside, but she didn't know what they were planning to do so late at night.
Fan Yunying didn't dare to speak anymore and followed cautiously behind her.
By the bright moonlight, they discovered that the area behind the boulder was completely different from the desolate and chaotic place they had imagined; in fact, it was a hidden paradise.
The path was paved with bluestone, and the shrubs on both sides were neatly trimmed. If they weren't sure they were on a mountain, they would have thought it was someone's carefully crafted back garden.
The only thing that made them uneasy was that the paths were crisscrossing, like a maze. Even though the end was right in front of them, they kept going the wrong way and couldn't get closer.
"Miss Du, it's really too difficult to walk here. Shall we go back?" Fan Yunying was not only tired from walking, but also starting to feel scared.
"Go back?" Du Anwen asked her coldly. "Take a good look yourself. Do you know which way is the way back?"
Fan Yunying looked around, her face drained of color, and she began to tremble. "This...this place is so eerie."
They were in the bushes, and looking into the distance, it seemed as if they could see the end of the bushes, but upon closer inspection, they realized that there was no end at all, but that the white mist had simply blocked their view!
In other words, they are now trapped in a maze of bushes and cannot even tell which way they came in!
"Let's rest first!" Du Anwen gritted her teeth, no longer caring about her image, and plopped down on the ground.
Fan Yunying knew that she was blaming herself for letting people bring them in. Now, not only had they failed to find Prince Cheng, but they had also trapped themselves in this strange and mysterious place.
She dared not make a sound again, and carefully squatted down to rest.
……
In the hot spring.
At night, Shu swam happily like a fish.
Yu Chi Ling knew she was a good swimmer, but he didn't expect her to be this good. He tried to catch her several times but failed, and in frustration, he simply stood still in the water.
He stopped moving, and Ye Shishu found it strange, so she swam towards him. "What's wrong? Why are you spacing out?"
The next moment, her waist tightened, and she fell into Yu Chi Ling's arms.
"How much longer do we want to play?"
"We finally have water to play in, we can't go back now, can we?" Ye Shishu pushed him, trying to slip away from his embrace.
Now that they've finally caught her, would Yu Chi Ling really let her go?
He lifted her up and strode towards the shore.
Ye Shishu was forced to cling to him, and reluctantly tapped his shoulder, "What's the rush? Can't a person have some fun?"
Yu Chi Ling pressed his forehead against hers and hummed softly, "You said it yourself, we finally got out, do you think I wouldn't be anxious?"
Ye Shishu rolled her eyes at him, but in the end she still hooked her arms around his neck and took the initiative to try to stop him from going too crazy.
Just as they were getting into the swing of things, Ye Shishu suddenly jolted awake, grabbed his arm, and asked breathlessly, "Is... someone... coming?"
"It's late at night, and some small animals will come out to forage for food." After saying that, Yu Chi Ling sealed her red lips with his, preventing her from thinking about anything else.
……
In the bushes.
Du Anwen and Fan Yunying walked for a long time, but still couldn't find the exit.
Suddenly, the sound of waves could be heard.
The sound of the waves was mixed with another sound, rising and falling, sounding both pain and excitement...
The two stood frozen in place.
Du Anwen, in particular, almost bit her lower lip until it bled.
They watched as Prince Cheng brought Ye Shishu in.
Then who else could be the owner of this voice?
Fan Yunying glanced at her cautiously, then cursed into the distance, "Ye Shishu is truly shameless! To bring Prince Cheng to the desolate wilderness to do such a thing is truly immoral and shameless! Prince Cheng is also shameless; he is a prince, the next crown prince, how can he accompany a woman to do such absurd things? Doesn't he care about damaging his reputation!"
As she continued to curse, Du Anwen's face grew increasingly grim, and she bit her lower lip harder and harder.
However, to their surprise, the sound of the water and the ambiguous sounds continued for a very long time, so long that they were almost numb. They squatted in the bushes and dozed off, waking up several times during which the sounds did not stop.
After an unknown amount of time, the sky gradually brightened.
Du Anwen was the first to regain consciousness.
At this point, those ambiguous sounds could no longer be heard.
"Fan Yunying! Get up!"
"Huh?" Fan Yunying opened her eyes groggily. Seeing that it was already light, she was startled and quickly climbed out of the bushes.
The eerie white fog from last night had dissipated, and the distant scenery became clear. They were indeed in a thicket, but it wasn't large, at most the size of a garden.
At one end of the bushes was the boulder they had encountered on their way there, and at the other end was the shimmering water.
The thought of being trapped here for an entire night made both of them look grim. But Du Anwen didn't turn back; instead, she followed the path straight to the water.
This time, however, they were not trapped. Although the paths were intricate, they managed to get out of the bushes.
Standing by the huge hot spring pool, recalling the sounds she had listened to for almost a whole night, Du Anwen couldn't help but clench her hands again.
"Huh? Where did they go?" Fan Yunying ran to her side, looked around carefully, and suddenly pointed to a pile of clothes not far away. "Miss Du, look! That must have been left behind by the Prince and Ye Shishu!"
