Don't worry, i'll divorce you-Chapter 7 On the way home XiaoRue's story
Let's return to XiaoRue and ManQi.
After being left by Prince Li, ManQi is carefully checking the bodies while XiaoRue prepares the belongings to be taken. In minutes, XiaoRue has done with her work and then she is waiting for ManQi to be done. It takes time to check entire 10 corpses. XiaoRue waits patiently, she observes how ManQi moves from one to other corpses but he looks unsatisfied. Then he stands after checking the last one.
"Well, what did you find?" XiaoRue asks curiously. ManQi doesn't look at her at all, he seems ignoring her and then starts digging a big hole. XiaoRue was actually never talk with this ManQi during she lived with HuaMuTan at Li Mansion. Like what she heard from others, this ManQi is really a mystery man. XiaoRue walks closer to ManQi; repeating her question.
"Did you find anything from these corpses? Any marks? Any clues?"
ManQi still doesn't give any response. So XiaoRue keep asking him questions, squatting beside ManQi who works hard to dig the hole.
"Who do you think they are? Why did they attack us? If they were the robber, don't we better go away from here now....who knows these men still have other gang? what do you think?"
ManQi just keep digging, while in his mind, sudden pops up one word, 'Noisy!'
The hole is ready now. ManQi looks at XiaoRue, like he is expecting something from her but XiaoRue doesn't have any clue at all,
"What? Why are you staring at me like that? You know we're really better leave now and return to Li Mansion. I am so worry with XiaoCie...she...mmm"
ManQi doesn't want to hear any useless words...he covers XiaoRue's mouth with one of his hand while the other one he use to point the corpse...and finally he speaks,
"The bodies....pull them all here..."
XiaoRue can't believe what she hears. This ManQi has asking her, a weak girl to pull the dead bodies, all of them? She is also can't believe that this man dare to close her mouth with his bare hand. Since a little, growing up with HuaMuTan, XiaoRue learns the manner between man and woman. A Gentleman should never lays the hands on a mainden's body, like covering the mouth. 'What a rude...' XiaoRue's face has becoming red coz of the anger. She widened her eyes and stares to ManQi as a protest.
ManQi gives a teasing smile,
"If you can't help then don't talk. Be quit and sit there as a nice little girl, okay.... As soon I bury them all. We'll back to the Li Mansion. Do you understand?"
XiaoRue nods her head obediently, then ManQi takes off his hand from XiaoRue's mouth, and right at that moment XiaoRue takes a chance to bite his hand hardly.
"Aauuuchhh!!! You..." ManQi glares angrily back to XiaoRue,
"I am not a little girl! How rude..." XiaoRue walks away from ManQi, then she stops at one body. First, she feels hesitated but then she makes her mind; she pulls the body into the hole.
"You said, as soon we bury them, we can return right. I'll help you so we can return quickly..." and then she continues to pull another body.
'Well, turns out this girl is quite brave...'
ManQi feels amused seeing XiaoRue's act. XiaoRue realizes that ManQi has not yet start moving,
"Well, what are you waiting for !!!" She shouts angrily.
After both of them finished the job, ManQi and XiaoRue pray to give proper burying for the dead. Then ManQi takes the horse from a chariot and rides it on. He pulls the horse, closer to XiaoRue,and then he gives a hand to XiaoRue as like a gentleman to help her up on the horse, but XiaoRue hesitated,
"Why don't we use chariot?"
"The chariot's wheels are broken already, its no use anymore. It just 2 of us, it will faster in this way ,don't you say you want to return quickly?"
"That's right..." XiaoRue decides to takes ManQi's hand and sits at behind him, trying not to touch his back at all...
"Hold tightly, don't fall...Haittts"
"Whattt...wuoo....",
As soon the horse starts running, XiaoRue feels to lose her balance so instinctually she holds ManQi's wrist tightly. During the road, XiaoRue can feel her heart beating so fast...
'It must be because the horse is running so fast, I never ride the horse like this before....XiaoCie, please be okay.... XiaoRue is coming...."
