Chapter 373: 373 Worry About Missing Out (Extra Chapter for Recommendation Tickets) Chapter 373: 373 Worry About Missing Out (Extra Chapter for Recommendation Tickets) After hearing Si Nan’s explanation, Ye Jiu suddenly understood.

She had been harsh even though their intentions had been good.

However, Ye Jiu believed, she couldn’t completely blame herself, “If that’s the case, you could have warned me beforehand. Pulling me over so suddenly almost gave me a heart attack!”

Ye Jiu felt she had a real talent for turning things around on someone else.

Look at her now, instead of feeling guilty for wrongly blaming others, she unrepentantly found faults.

After these words had left her mouth, she startled herself.

But, upon seeing that Sikong Mo showed no signs of anger, she finally relaxed again.

“Next time, I will tell you beforehand,” Sikong Mo uttered stiffly.

The subordinates behind Sikong Mo realized for the first time that they shouldn’t only avoid offending their Prince but also the cross-dressed young girl in front of him, since she was under the Prince’s protection!

Ye Jiu thought, with this experience, she wouldn’t dare to mount Wenzheng’s horse again next time. Instead of risking being dragged over, she’d rather climb up obediently by herself.

Originally, she thought that following Young Master Sikong had already troubled them enough, so she wanted to burden them as little as possible, but now, it seemed like not riding Sikong Mo’s horse was the real burden.

Although the sun was scorching, the ground was still not completely dry. As they walked, clear hoof prints were left on the ground.

When it came to traveling, Sikong Mo was much more adept than a carriage driver.

This journey was at least twice as fast as their previous journeys.

However, Ye Jiu was not so comfortable.

Compared to comfortably sitting in a carriage, riding on horseback was almost like being jolted to the point of splitting her behind into eight parts.

During the last trip back from Nanchang, since they were being pursued, she was too nervous to feel uncomfortable riding a horse, but this time, the feeling was completely different.

At noon, they tethered the horses to graze in the woods, and the group hunted game to roast.

Ye Jiu squatted to the side, feeling the numbness from her thighs and looked as if she was on the verge of tears.

If only she had known… If only she had known…

If only she had known, she still would have chosen to take the road with Sikong Mo, right?

After all, the journey was much faster that way, and Sikong Mo could help her gather news about her brother. She wouldn’t have to search tirelessly and worry about missing him.

Soon, Sikong Mo brought over a roasted chicken leg and handed it to Ye Jiu, “Eat quickly, we will continue traveling soon.”

“Oh!” replied Ye Jiu stiffly, while she ate, holding back her sour tears.

Sikong Mo sat beside her, and as Ye Jiu was halfway through eating, he suddenly spoke, “You must have something softer stashed in your secret place. Take it out and put it under your bottom later. It should feel better.”

Ye Jiu felt a bit embarrassed, thinking he hadn’t noticed, but it turned out, he had seen her discomfort.

Thinking about it, how could Sikong Mo not notice?

While she was on the horse, she had been fidgeting due to discomfort, and someone as sensitive as him, if he hadn’t noticed, that would be the real surprise!

“I do have it, but pulling it out so openly, wouldn’t that draw too much attention?” Ye Jiu glanced around at the people busy with their tasks, her concern clearly visible in her eyes.
