Chapter 294: Chapter 294 Found Dad and Mom Second Watch(2)_1

"Crack!"

The exquisite green jade measure was smashed apart in his hand, the man’s clenched fist was white-knuckled, and an ominous vein bulged on his fair forehead. Gritting his teeth, he articulated two words through the gaps between his teeth: "Who--dare?"

His expression was as if she had indeed been killed.

Upon seeing his look, Cai Wei’s eyes dimmed slightly. He cherished her so much that he was willing to defy his own mother for her, but she was unable to reciprocate his deep feelings and was destined to disappoint him.

She said, "If the Empress Dowager truly wants to kill me, can you really stop it?"

Nangong Yi looked at Cai Wei and solemnly said, "Wei’er, don’t be afraid, I absolutely won’t let anything happen to you."

Cai Wei smiled and looked down to say, "I’m not scared, because I’ve already told the Empress Dowager through her that I have no designs on you. Moreover, after this incident is completely over, I will avoid meeting you as much as possible!"

The moment she finished speaking, the expression on the man’s face froze!

He looked deeply at Cai Wei, his charming eyes seemed hurt and a trace of sorrow seeped out.

"Wei’er, you..."

He wanted to say, can’t you step back for once? As long as you’re willing to marry me, even as a side consort, I swear, I will consider you my only wife for the rest of my life. I will always respect you and love you. Other women will only serve as political connections, mere decorations in our home, and I will never touch them.

But in the end, he didn’t say it, because even if he did, she would never agree!

Nangong Yi gave a bitter smile, muttering, "If only there was a way to satisfy both the Buddha and the beloved...

Cai Wei sighed, "Exactly, if only there was a way to satisfy both, but since there isn’t such a way in the world, Your Highness King Qin, please don’t waste your thoughts on me. In this world, besides love between a man and a woman, there is friendship too. Please consider me as a friend and quietly forget about me in your heart..."

The horse carriage rumbled on its way. Ever since the two finished their conversation, the carriage became much quieter. The man’s heart was like a stormy sea, consumed by huge disappointment and loss while Cai Wei silently activated her thought and summoned Brother Ying (Brother Parrot).

"Caw, master, you needed me?"

"Brother Ying, are you feeling better now? There’s a very important task that I need you to do, can you handle it?"

"Master, I’m completely recovered now, don’t you trust me—"

It squawked and flapped its wings, flying around in the space.

"Master, just tell me what it is!"

Cai Wei communicated to it through thought about the loss of Tianjizi’s head and asked it to find the missing head.

After hearing this, Brother Ying squawked and flew out of the space, heading towards the snow-covered mountains behind the Mu Family Village.

After Brother Ying left, Cai Wei withdrew her thoughts and only then realized the carriage was still moving.

"Where are we going?"

"To the town."

Nangong Yi explained, "The houses in the village were all damaged by the earthquake, so we have no place to stay. We have to go back to town for temporary shelter while making inquiries about the Mu family people and the status of Tianjizi’s head."

As Cai Wei had some matters to attend to in town, she tacitly agreed.

By the time they reached the town, it was already very late. Nangong Yi sent Cai Wei back to the doorstep of the Bafu Restaurant, and he himself returned to the Xinglong Inn.

As soon as Cai Wei entered her home, she was not surprised to see that it was in a mess. All the furniture was chopped to pieces, the doors and windows were smashed beyond recognition, and even the bowls, plates, and dishes were shattered. The bedding and curtains were ripped into shreds.

Her home no longer resembled a home!
