Wishful Things

Chapter 60 Threat

"Vulture?"

Before the others could answer, Prince Jing hurriedly pointed to the big bird on the wall: "The one who snatched my jade pendant, could it be the one raised by Wu Shisun?!"

This guy also robbed someone else's jade pendant?

Wu Chao frowned wildly.

... If I knew it earlier, I wouldn't say it so fast.

But it is unrealistic to separate the relationship now, in order to save face, he can only say: "Tianmu, come down."

The big bird flew down obediently.

"Kang"——

The jade pendant fell from between the claws of the big bird and shattered on the ground.

"..."

Looking at the jade pendant that fell to the ground and shattered into several petals, the surroundings were quiet for a moment.

Xu Mingshi looked at the big bird that landed steadily on the base of the wall, and thought that the bird was ugly, but it was quite pleasing to the eye.

"Tianmu."

Wu Chao tried his best to restrain the anger in his tone.

Don't think he can't see it, this guy is intentional at all.

what is this?

Deliberately causing trouble to avenge him?

Big Bird shrank his neck in aggrieved manner and walked step by step behind Xu Mingyi.

Wu Chao's back molars clenched.

A vicious biological father makes a child so intimidated that he seeks the protection of a well-meaning person—it's starting again, isn't it?

"My jade pendant, this..."

Prince Jing looked at the broken jade in the hands of his entourage, and sighed angrily, but turned to look at Wu Chao, who had a naturally cold face, but he couldn't say anything to blame.

First of all, even though he is the son of the prince, and even he is a serious son of the Xie family clan, who would not want to have trouble with the Dingnan Palace with its profound military power?

A hundred years ago, when the ancestors of their Xie family didn't know where to make a living, the Wu family was already a well-known and famous family.

To put it bluntly, Wu Jun was willing to accept the throne back then, it was all for the sake of the late emperor, so that the late emperor could sit on the dragon chair with peace of mind.

Besides, he couldn't do such an unmannered thing like arguing with a bird in front of Miss Xu, could he?

King Jing's son held back his breath, but Wu Chao expressed his attitude: "The fault of this matter lies in Wu's improper restraint. After returning to the mansion, people will definitely give double the value of this jade pendant. If the prince only wants Jade pendant, please give Wu a certain day, tomorrow he will definitely find the same jade pendant and return it to the son."

Prince Jing waved his hands quickly.

"Wu Shisun is too polite, it's just a jade pendant, not worth mentioning."

He knew that the Wu family was rich and powerful, and although his jade pendant was not ordinary, it was definitely not a rare item for the Wu family——

It would be better to take this opportunity to leave a good impression of Wu Shisun's generosity and straightforwardness.

Wu Chao didn't say anything when he heard the words.

He must pay back things, and he never likes to owe favors to others.

Prince Jing regarded him as acquiescing, and quickly turned his head to Xu Mingyi with a smile: "Miss Xu, don't worry, it doesn't matter if the jade pendant is gone, my words just now still count. , you don’t need any tokens, just send someone a message.”

Wu Chao raised his eyebrows.

According to this, did Jing Wang Shizi just now intend to give his personal jade pendant to Xu Mingyi as a token?

That jade pendant had almost become evidence that he was accused of murdering the prince——

At this time, he wanted to give this unlucky thing to Xu Mingyi?

That's right, the young man doesn't think this jade pendant is very valuable, but just feels very unlucky.

And looking at the big bird hiding behind the girl, he suddenly felt that the guy didn't need to be beaten so much anymore.

"I appreciate the kindness of your son."

Xu Mingyi simply declined, looked at the coachman who was leading the horse, and reminded: "The son's carriage has arrived."

Prince Jing looked back at the coachman who was leading the horse at Xu Mingshi's instruction, and only said: "Then...Miss Xu, then we will meet later."

After bidding farewell to Wu Chao and Xu Mingshi, he boarded the carriage and left with some reluctance.

Seeing the carriage going away, Xu Mingshi relaxed.

It was finally sent away.

Just as he turned around and took two steps to go back to the mansion, he suddenly stamped his feet.

No, there seems to be another——

Xu Mingshi turned his head to look at that Wu Shisun.

Wu Shisun came to look for the bird, why did the bird not want to leave after finding it?

"I wonder if Miss Xu can take a step to speak?" Wu Chao looked at Xu Mingyi and asked.

Xu Mingyi nodded without hesitation.

Seeing that the two walked a little further together, Xu Mingshi resisted the urge to follow and listen.

"Young Master Wu can speak now."

Stopping under an old willow tree, the girl's serious expression fell into Wu Chao's eyes, making him feel more confident.

Very well, Miss Xu acted as if she just wanted to discuss something serious with him.

"It's not a serious matter." He said first.

Xu Mingyi quietly waited for him to continue, but his hands clenched into fists unconsciously.

If it's still those who deserve to be beaten, she can't guarantee that she can still control her thoughtful fist.

Inexplicably, Wu Chao felt a chill down his back.

"Maybe I misunderstood Ms. Xu about the previous incident. If my words and deeds offend, I hope Ms. Xu will forgive me."

He thought about it carefully last night, maybe Miss Xu's overtures were just for the sake of cooperating with him, and it was him who was a shadow of a snake.

The girls who admired him were those girls, Miss Xu was Miss Xu, and he shouldn't compare Miss Xu with them.

Xu Mingyi was surprised.

Wu Shisun actually spoke back to people?

It's just that if the word "or" is removed, it must be more pleasing to the ear.

"It's okay, I didn't take it to heart." The girl said generously.

Wu Chao keenly looked at the girl's half-covered fist, which was slowly released.

"..."

It doesn't look like he didn't take it to heart...

The boy secretly said in his heart that it was dangerous.

"If Mr. Wu has nothing else to do, I will go back first.

She hadn't decided whether to tell Wu Chao about what she heard in the Eastern Palace today——

"Okay, Miss Xu, go slowly."

The tone of the young man who had untied his knot was less cold than usual.

Xu Mingyi stepped on the stone steps in front of the gate of his house, and looked back as if looking back.

Big Bird also followed her up the stone steps step by step.

Wu Chao couldn't bear it anymore and closed his eyes.

How long is this bird going to embarrass him——

And going forward to catch it is probably impossible to catch it easily, it will only make him lose face.

"If you refuse to obediently follow me back today, you don't have to go back in the future." The young man looked at the back of the big bird and threatened in a cold voice.

Big Bird stopped.

After a while, flapping its wings, it flew in his direction.

Wu Chao's face softened slightly.

Still a little conscience.

No, wrong direction——

In sight, the big bird flew over the courtyard wall of Zhen Guo Gong's mansion, and soon turned into a black shadow, and disappeared into the high wall of Zhen Guo Gong's mansion without hesitation.

It was as if the boy's words just now were not a threat to it, but a fulfillment.

"..."

The atmosphere was momentarily stagnant and awkward.

Xu Mingyi couldn't bear to look at Wu Chao's face, so he could only say, "In that case, I'll take care of Wu Shisun for a few days first."

"...Thank you."

Wu Chao didn't say anything, and didn't want to stay for even a moment, so he turned around and got on his horse to leave.

"That fat vulture...why does it seem to be so close to you?"

Walking on the road in the front yard, Xu Mingshi asked tentatively.

He didn't even know when Xu Mingyi met Wu Shisun, and they looked very familiar.

"I don't know, maybe it's because I'm good-looking." Xu Mingyi replied.

Xu Mingshi: "Oh."

At this time, the sound of footsteps came from behind the two of them.

Xu Mingyi looked back subconsciously.
