Supreme Magical Concubine Is Wickedly Strong - Chapter 25

Chapter 25: Meeting Again (2)

Qiu Nuo nodded and didn’t deny it.

She knew that this beautiful woman didn’t have a simple identity. This was also why she chose to save her.

In such a gathering of strong men, why couldn’t she find a backer for herself?!

“Why don’t Miss join us, then?” As Qiu Nuo expected, the beautiful woman invited her with enthusiasm.

“Sure!” Qiu Nuo smiled and agreed.

“Xiao Lan, go and inform Fifth Prince that we can leave at any time,” said the beautiful woman.

“Yes, Madam.”

Upon hearing this, Qiu Nuo frowned.

She recalled that day when Mo Ziyan suddenly left. It was to save a certain woman who was held captive by the Fifth Prince.

Her instincts told her that she shouldn’t be too fond of this Fifth Prince.

Also, she didn’t expect that this beautiful woman before her would actually be related to the royal family.

If she had known, she wouldn’t have stepped into this mess.

…

Qiu Nuo changed into a set of clean clothes and came to the campsite.

From afar, she saw a slender man in black standing under an old tree.

The man looked cold, and his face had distinct edges and corners. He exuded an aura that no stranger should get close to him.

“Miss Qiu Nuo, over here.”

Xiao Lan, standing not too far away from the man in black, immediately waved to her and shouted loudly when she saw Qiu Nuo.

“Who is she?” Nangong Ling asked coldly as he locked his sharp gaze on Qiu Nuo.

“In response to Fifth Prince, this Miss saved Madam’s life today. As such, Madam invited her to join us so that they could take care of each other,” Xiao Lan answered honestly.

Nangong Ling frowned. “Aunt’s too careless. How can she let an unidentified fellow join our team?”

As soon as Qiu Nuo stepped forward, she heard Nangong Ling saying such words of disdain.

Xiao Lan looked embarrassed. She looked at Qiu Nuo and didn’t know what to say.

“Madam Gu hasn’t come out yet?” Qiu Nuo pretended not to hear his words and walked to Xiao Lan calmly.

“Madam can’t bear the heat. As such, Fifth Prince gave Madam an ice armor just now. Madam will be out after changing into it.” Seeing that Qiu Nuo didn’t seem to mind, Xiao Lan heaved a sigh of relief and smiled.

“Alright.” Qiu Nuo nodded and didn’t say anything else.

Nangong Ling looked at Qiu Nuo, and the loathing in his eyes became stronger. Did she think that she could attract his attention by acting so cold and arrogant? How ridiculous. He had seen plenty of such women in the imperial capital.

Not too long later, Madam Gu walked out wearing a long silver dress.

Under the sunlight, the long dress sparkled. The cuffs and skirt were embroidered with flower patterns, looking beautiful and exquisite.

However, it was regretful that the dress looked a little small and didn’t seem to fit her well.

“Madam, you look extremely pretty wearing this icy and silky long dress.” Xiao Lan smiled and complimented.

“I’m just borrowing someone else’s limelight.” Madam Gu covered her mouth and laughed lightly. “Okay, let’s not delay any more. We’ll set off now!”

“Aunt, I disagree with letting this woman join our team,” Nangong Ling suddenly said.

“Why?” Madam Gu glanced at him, curious.

“I suspect that the purpose of her approaching us isn’t simple,” Nangong Ling said self-righteously with both hands behind his back.

“How is that so?” Madam Gu waved her hands. “I trust Qiu Nuo. She saved my life just now.”

“Alright, then.” Seeing that Madam Gu was insistent, Nangong Ling didn’t continue to object. He only gave Qiu Nuo a look of warning. “You better don’t play tricks with me. Otherwise, don’t blame me for being rude!”

“Oh.” Qiu Nuo responded in a lukewarm manner. She was thinking in her heart that this man must be delusional, a persecutory delusion!
