Qing Lan pursed her lips slightly, a little stubborn.

"She is here to protect me after all." Xue Bai explained again.

Qing Lan was so blessed that she left the wing and went to do other things, humming softly.

"Hmph, protection, what is there to protect?"

~~

Du Wulang peeked into Xue Bai's room from the corridor, shook his head, returned to the room, lay down on the couch, and sighed comfortably: "I'm so tired."

Many things that had happened in recent days were going through his mind like a fleeting glance, and he himself found them novel.

Fortunately, things have finally stabilized for the time being.

He rolled around, wrapped himself in a quilt, and soon fell asleep.

It was a very sweet sleep, and there were some other faint sounds in the night, but they couldn't wake him up.

Until the exclamation suddenly broke through the quiet night in Du's house.

"There's a thief!"

"Boom!"

A gong sounded.

Du Wulang sat up from the couch wrapped in quilt and exclaimed in surprise: "What's wrong?!"

"A burglar?"

Someone in the ear room also asked.

"Huh?" Du Wulang heard that the voice was Xue Bai, and he couldn't help but wonder: "If you don't live with Nasha... that little girl, how come you come to sleep in a small bed?"

Xue Bai came out of the ear room, found a candle to light, and said casually: "You only made one bed, and she took it."

"Ah, you really are." Du Wulang shook his head and said: "How can a man be humiliated by a little maid when he is a man of heaven and earth?"

"She had a dagger and said she would cut me if I dared to come near her bed."

"That's your bed." Du Wulang said angrily.

"Bang!"

Suddenly there was a loud noise, and someone in the next room knocked on the door and came out. A woman shouted: "Don't leave!"

Xue Bai then lit the candle and quickly blew it out.

The room suddenly fell into complete darkness and nothing could be seen clearly.

Only the sound of rapid footsteps was heard on the corridor, gradually heading towards the front yard.

Du Wulang was horrified and whispered: "What, what's wrong?"

"Donggong sent people to kill us, and Jiao Nu chased us out."

"Wha...what?!"

Du Wulang quickly slipped out of the bed, called Xue Bai and crawled under the bed, saying in a low voice: "Hurry, hurry, hide quickly."

"Has been chased far away by Jiao Nu."

"Then let's hide." Du Wulang had already got under the couch and said, "Come quickly."

suddenly.

With a "click" sound, the window was pushed open.

It seemed like someone jumped in.

"Bang!"

Something slammed on the couch.

Du Wulang's body trembled, he was so frightened that he fell into a ball with his head in his hands.

Then there was a series of smashing, and finally with a bang on the door, someone rushed out.

When Du Wulang finally came to his senses, he cautiously poked his head out from under the couch, only to see moonlight streaming in through the broken window, and there seemed to be no one in the room.

"Xue Bai? Where are you?"

He called softly, but when no one answered, he couldn't help but panic.
