“Little Jing? What are you doing here?” Xia Chunyu asked in surprise. He took notice of Helian Jing’s grey clothes and common folk attire as well as his tanned skin. “Did you run away from the mansion?”

Helian mansion’s Young Royal Highness was a master who constantly gives people headaches. He loved stirring up trouble wherever he goes. Two years ago, Helian Xuan went to southern Fu Jian deal with the pirates, and Helian Jing used the moment to try and sneak out of the mansion. Luckily, he got caught before he could set foot outside the gate. Helian Jing must’ve followed his older brother who went to Shang Dong to get rid of the bandits.  Come to think of it! Little Jing must’ve already been to Shang Dong! How else could he have met this unfortunate situation?

Helian Jing subtly glanced at his sides, trying to estimate the probability of escaping from brother Chunyu.

Xia Chunyu looked right through what he was thinking and blocked his way. “Where are you going? Come with me to Jin Ling.”

Helian Jing cried out, “I can’t, big brother. I am here with my friend and I can’t just leave him.”

“Who did you kidnap this time?

“How can I kidnap anyone? I was almost kidnapped! Luckily this Rao brother saved me. He’s actually helping me to go back home,” Helian Jing said defensively. He did not want Chunyu to think of big Raorao as a bad person.

Xia Chunyu frowned. Jin Rao brother? Raorao? A male?

“Did you call this friend just then?”

“Yes! He’s just right there, I will get him.” Helian Jing wanted to run away from Chunyu.

Xia Chunyu took his arm and said, “Let’s go together.” He would never let little Jing slip away under his watch.

Helian Jing had no choice but to let Chunyu tag along as they looked for brother Jin.

“Eh? Where is he? He was here just a moment ago.” They came in front of the dough figurine store but couldn’t see Ye Jiayao. Helian Jing asked the dough figurine master nervously, “Where is the little brother who came here to do dough figurine?”

The dough figurine master was busy with molding the dough in his hand that he didn’t even look up. He simply replied, “The little brother said that if someone came looking for him, he has a sudden stomachache and he needs to leave early.”

What?  Big Raorao looked fine to him just now. How can he have a stomachache? Was it the dessert we ate?   We ate the same thing, and I’m still fine.


Helian Jing worried, “Brother Chunyu, my friend seemed to be not well. I have to look for him.”

Xia Chunyu saw his worried look, decided that he was being honest, and relented. “Where do you guys live?”

Originally, Helian Jing wanted to play and have fun with big Raorao before they reach Jin Ling. However, now that brother Chunyu has seen him, it wasn’t possible anymore. He had no choice but, to tell the truth. He pointed at the dock and said, “We came here by boat and the boat stopped at the dock.”

Xia Chunyu signaled for his guards to come forward. “Follow Jing Young Royal Highness until he finds his friend then bring them back to the boat. Remember, if you lose him, don’t bother coming back to me.”

The two guards gave a loud affirmative, their sights already fixed on Jing Young Royal Highness.

Ye Jiayao waited for them to leave before coming out from the alley she was hiding in.
