Xun'er Wants to Go Undercover, Please Bookmark

In the end, Hun Xiu chose to compromise.

Who could blame her for being so adorable? Besides, she was still so young, and most importantly, she was his "child bride." Why not spoil her first? If he did not, who would?

Xiao Yan? If Xiao Yan dared to reach out, Hun Xiu would show him what true despair felt like.

And so, Hun Xiu and Gu Xun'er began playing a "childish" game—horseback riding.

Who was the horse? Naturally, Hun Xiu. And who was the rider? Naturally, Gu Xun'er. Hun San, hidden in the shadows, could not help sucking in a breath at the sight.

He thought to himself, I never imagined Young Master Hun Xiu would actually become a horse. This is simply...

The shock in Hun San's heart was like tens of thousands of alpacas trampling ruthlessly through it, back and forth.

He had protected Young Master Hun Xiu for years. Aside from becoming a horse two years ago after making that little one cry, he had never done so again.

And now...

Two years later, it was still this place, still these two people. They had both grown quite a bit, yet they were still playing this childish game here.

Gu Yuan and Soul Emperor in the distance also noticed the game Hun Xiu and Gu Xun'er were playing.

The expressions on their faces were entirely different.

Gu Yuan looked into the distance with a smile, watching his little girl ride on Hun Xiu's back.

He could not help feeling delighted, muttering, "At such a young age, he already cannot escape the fate of doting on his wife. Will he be able to escape it when he grows up?"

In Gu Yuan's eyes, it was settled. Hun Xiu already spoiled his little girl like this—what would happen once they grew up?

It would certainly not be bad.

As long as his Xun'er had the means to keep Hun Xiu firmly tied down, there would be no problem at all.

In contrast to Gu Yuan's delight, Soul Emperor was filled with displeasure. His eyes narrowed slightly.

If Gu Yuan had not been standing beside him, he would have wanted to rush over to Hun Xiu and kick him flying.

What a damned embarrassment.

His lifelong reputation, Soul Emperor's glorious name, was now being utterly ruined by this unfilial son.

A man, a dignified seven-foot-tall man, was actually willing to degrade himself into a servant just to please a little girl? Was this really Soul Emperor's son? He refused to acknowledge having such an embarrassing son.

At that moment, Soul Emperor felt that he had raised Hun Xiu for nothing all these years. What the hell was this supposed to be?

I taught him to stand tall, to bend when necessary and stretch when necessary. But who taught him to bow and scrape so submissively before women? Soul Emperor insisted that he had never taught Hun Xiu such disgraceful behavior.

Was I wrong to agree to this marriage back then? It was only a Tou She Ancient God Jade, yet I pushed Xiu'er out like this. Was this good, or was it a mistake from the start? This thought surfaced in Soul Emperor's mind.

Just as that thought arose, Gu Yuan said with a smile, "Xiu'er truly is the son-in-law I favor. He dotes on Xun'er so much from such a young age. He truly lives up to the man I chose."

Soul Emperor: "..."

Soul Emperor was extremely depressed. He did not even know what he should say.

He had been wrong.

At that moment, Soul Emperor realized that he had truly been wrong. He should never have been tempted by such a small advantage.

Was it not merely a Tou She Ancient God Jade? The Hun Clan possessed terrifying foundations. If they sent their army to the borders, could the Gu Clan truly keep its Tou She Ancient God Jade?

Yet he had pushed his own Xiu'er out instead. What an utterly mistaken decision.

Honestly, he regretted it.

Soul Emperor regretted it. His own Xiu'er, a monstrous genius among the younger generation of the Hun Clan and the future Young Clan Head of the Hun Clan, was being ridden like a horse by a little girl who still smelled of milk.

The anger in his heart!

"Hmph..."

Soul Emperor could no longer bear to watch. With a cold snort, he flicked his sleeve and turned to leave.

Out of sight, out of mind. He feared that if he kept watching, he would not be able to stop himself from rushing over and kicking Hun Xiu away.

What was this nonsense? What an embarrassing fool.

"Hahaha..."

As Soul Emperor turned and left with a flick of his sleeve, Gu Yuan burst into laughter, seemingly unconcerned that this was Hun Clan territory.

He cast a meaningful glance at the "harmonious scene" atop the distant mountain peak, then turned and followed Soul Emperor.

Soul Emperor had already left. If he stayed behind to watch the show, it would be somewhat inappropriate.

Hun Xiu had no idea that his father, Soul Emperor, had seen him acting as a horse. Even if he had known, Hun Xiu would not have cared.

It was not a big deal. It was only a game, a game played by two children.

Anyone who took it seriously had already lost.

Once the two had grown tired from playing, they sat atop the mountain peak. Gu Xun'er sat right in Hun Xiu's arms.

Looking at the barren, yellow back mountain, Hun Xiu could not help furrowing his brows slightly. Honestly, if this back mountain were covered in green, how beautiful would it be? At that moment, Hun Xiu regretted it.

He regretted turning the entire back mountain into a stretch of yellow. Now, as far as the eye could see, there was only barren yellow land.

There was not the slightest trace of life to be felt.

Honestly, green was quite nice sometimes.

Green represented life, and it also represented health.

"Ah..."

The little girl sitting in Hun Xiu's arms began sighing, as though this adorable little one had countless worries weighing on her heart.

"What is it? Does Xun'er have something troubling her?" Sitting behind the little girl, Hun Xiu reached out with both hands and pinched her plump, adorable cheeks.

They were soft and fleshy, wonderfully elastic, making it hard to put them down.

The little girl did not get angry when the demonic claws from behind pinched her cheeks. Instead, her adorable face was filled with sorrow.

She slowly stood up. At her current height, she was just as tall as Hun Xiu was while sitting cross-legged.

Gu Xun'er turned the tables, using her little hands to pinch Hun Xiu's handsome cheeks. Her large eyes blinked brightly as she looked at him and said, "Brother Xiu'er, do you know? In the future, you will never see such an adorable Xun'er again."

As she said this, the little girl wore a sorrowful expression.

The little girl knew that after she and her father, Gu Yuan, left the Hun Clan and returned to the Gu Clan, she would also have to leave the Gu Clan and leave the Central Plains. She would head to a remote town, to a small clan, to work as an undercover agent.

For the sake of the Gu Clan, the little girl understood that she had no choice but to go this time. Though she was young, the burden she carried was not light at all.

"What happened? Why would I no longer be able to see such an adorable Xun'er?" Hun Xiu looked at Gu Xun'er with a smile, quite curious.

The little girl glanced around. After making sure no one was nearby, she leaned close to Hun Xiu's ear and whispered, "Brother Xiu'er, I'm telling you this, but you must not tell anyone else. Xun'er is going undercover."
