CHENG

SHUFEN saw a carriage. She saw a man, standing near the carriage, wearing a green robe. Shufen walked near the man.

"Are you Cheng?" The man turned his head before nodding his head.

"First Miss told me it was a little girl. But looking at you you're a boy" Cheng's voice was confused as he didn't saw through her disguise.

"I am that little girl" Her mouth twitched as he stare at her for a long time. Shufen waved her hands.

"I'm in a hurry. Let's go" Cheng helped her get on the carriage as her height is a little bit short compared to him.

"You are really short" Shufen was annoyed by his voice. She glared at him making him stop talking. He put his hands up.

"Okay fine. I'll stop talking", Cheng pouted before closing the curtain.

Annoying punk.

The carriage started to move, and Shufen could only see big trees and nothing more. Shufen didn't know where this place is. She wondered how did Yaling knew this place but then Yaling was always outside the Manor.

" Hey Little Master are you bored?" Shufen heard Cheng' scream from outside. She closed her eyes and didn't answer.

"Did you know Little Master that I thought you are a woman but" She could hear his laughter. He was really pissing her off.

"Miss said that I had to protect you but who would dare to harm you? You look like a weak rabbit"

"...."

"I also heard that you don't know how to cultivate."

"..."

"Rumor also said that you look pretty but you're too quiet. I agree to that"

'Can this man know how to shut his mouth?' Shufen was starting get annoyed by his words. She was already annoyed by his face for unknown reason but she was also annoyed by his voice and the words that escape his mouth.

She wanted to rip that mouth of his. Skin him alive and chop his hands.

"And did you know? Someone also said to me that you don't know how to speak. Aren't they speaking nonsense? You can obviously speak!"

'You are the one speaking nonsense!'

It was a miracle that Shufen didn't react to his annoying rumbling. His nonsense words made her night worst.

"They also said you are shameless! Who's shameless? They are shameless! Oh! Little Master you are innocent. Poor you" She didn't know if he just pity her or was insulting her.

Didn't he know that his words are insulting her? Pretending to be dumb or he is really dumb. Insensitive jerk.

"Oh and Little master our Journey will be long so please rest. Our light is not enough for this dark night"

"Okay"

"Oh so you really know how to speak. I thought that it was just an illusion when you spoke earlier" His voice sounded so shock.

Shufen immediately regret that she spoke. After she spoke he didn't stop talking. Just pure nonsense.

"They also said that if the sky will turn black. Tge world will turn to ashes. Living things will also turn into ashes"

"Those witches is really interesting maybe someday I can meet one of them"

"...?" Shufen really didn't know if this man is capable of protecting her. He looks like a strong man but sounded like a five year old child. He sounded so innocent.

"You didn't know do you?" Cheng laughed. His laughter sounded so happy.

Her mouth twitch.

"Do you also know how to shut up?" Her voice was calm and clear. It sounded a little bit childish but it was not annoying.

Shufen was happy that he stopped talking and was about to close her eyes and sleep but,

"You are so mean. How can you say that. I obviously know how to shut my mouth! Unlike you. You don't even know that witches exist. Hmp!"

Shufen sighed. Somehow she felt guilty about what she said to him.

"Really? They exist?" She made her voice sound like she was curious. But in reality she was uninterested. Who would want to talk about witches?

Shufen just let him talk and she listened, somehow she didn't feel tired. His nonsense rumbling made her night comfortable.

The carriage suddenly stopped. "Little master stay inside"
