Chapter 4286: 5.0038 The Frenzied Tree Seed Fragment
After leaving the bustling pier, the little Crown Prince Consort walked forward with her head down, not uttering a single word.
Mo Lian wanted to coax her into speaking, but he knew her mood might not be pleasant at the moment.
At such a time, if she wanted a moment of peace, he naturally had to suppress the urge to hug her and give her space.
Qiao Mu, lost in thought, walked quickly with her head down, her pace accelerating until she suddenly broke into a run.
"Qiao Qiao." Mu Xingchen was startled and quickly sped up, leaping forward.
Mo Lian looked back at him. "It must be that the little tree has sensed something. Let's hurry and keep up."
The group, following the rapidly moving figure of the little stoic, formed a line, their speed also picking up significantly.
The little stoic suddenly leaped onto a rooftop, and everyone immediately followed suit.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, they all leaped up and then squatted down beside her.
The little girl expressionlessly turned her head and saw her husband's Phoenix eyes, glistening with a watery sheen, giving her a slightly wronged look: Qiao Qiao isn't paying attention~
Qiao Mu subconsciously raised her hand and stroked her husband's head, as if to comfort him.
Everyone twitched their lips in unison, looking speechless at the couple's peculiar way of interacting.
Manually stroking a dog's head seemed to be a signature move Qiao liked.
"Shh." The little stoic extended a finger, making a shushing gesture.
Everyone huddled on the rooftop, looking down into the courtyard.
The courtyard below was in utter chaos.
A small child, about five or six years old, was running frantically around the courtyard, naked.
A bright green little grass leaf grew on his small head, and he wore a pink bib. He hopped and skipped, and whenever someone tried to grab him, he'd backhand them with a... big slap.
The little child was incredibly strong. Several adult servants were no match for him and could only groan as he beat them severely.
"Little Grass, oh, Little Grass!" Qing Xuexue rushed in from outside the gate. She immediately saw the frenzied child and quickly went to soothe him. "Little Grass, quiet down, Little Grass!"
The child named Little Grass punched her in the face, nearly knocking her flying.
"Princess!!" The two female officers leaped forward, one after the other, raising their hands to support her.
Qing Xuexue's face was troubled as she scrambled and crawled over, pressing down on the child, holding him, and crying pitifully, "Little Grass, oh, Little Grass, Mommy's here. Look at Mommy! Oh dear, it hurts, it hurts! Mommy, Mommy's hand is about to be twisted off."
"Princess!" The entire courtyard was in disarray.
Many guards surged in from outside, their eyes red, wanting to rescue their Princess. But Qing Xuexue raised a hand, calling out to them in a deep voice, "No one is allowed to come over."
The little child suddenly kicked Qing Xuexue, sending her tumbling.
Qing Xuexue rolled awkwardly on the ground. She looked back and saw the child's eyes filled with rage, hopping and jumping, darting up and down, roaring furiously.
"A tree seed fragment??" Mo Lian looked at Qiao Mu with a questioning expression.
What's going on? He'd never seen a tree seed fragment so frenzied, as if it had bipolar disorder...
Qiao Mu nodded, pulling his finger, indicating for them to stay put. She then flickered, lightly appearing in front of Qing Xuexue.
Qing Xuexue was holding her waist, groaning. She looked up and saw the little stoic's expressionless face, and immediately froze.
