Xue Ling cursed in disdain.

We have many maids at home, but they sent me the stupidest one. She can’t do things properly or say the right things!

I must act more lovable and coy to my aunt and ask her to send me maids from Prince Zhanyun’s residence. They are the only maids who know how to serve me right and satisfy my demands.

Although Xiao Zhu felt wronged, she did not dare to retort. She answered fearfully, “I understand.”

“Idiot!” Xue Ling cursed again before walking to the bed and sitting down.

She had to think about how to escape from the military camp. It had been on lockdown after the disease outbreak.

Although she could walk around freely because of her status, she could not go to the main section of the camp that was not infected, let alone outside.

Even if the soldiers lowered their guard against her during the day, many kept watch at night. It would not be easy to escape!

“Hm, there must be a way. I can definitely escape.” She exhaled heavily and looked at Xiao Zhu sinisterly.

If there’s no other way, I’ll sacrifice this idiot of a maid! There’s no use keeping her around anyway.

…

They rode for several days.

That night, An Jiuyue, Qian Jiyun, and Yan Nuo rested by a narrow road. They planned to eat some food before continuing on their journey.

“Master, I sense a familiar aura nearby.”

An Jiuyue was taking a bite of her biscuit and a sip of water when she heard a voice in her mind abruptly. She stopped eating.

It took her a moment to register what Wei Na had said.

“Are you kidding me? You’ve followed me from another world and have never left the Lianjing Mountain Range. How can you sense a familiar aura here? Whose? Your wife’s?”

Wei Na was startled.

I don’t have a wife! Her joke is not funny at all.

“Master, do you remember that arrogant idiot, Xue Ling? It’s her aura. She seems to be in a rush,” Wei Na continued.

“Xue Ling!” An Jiuyue could not help muttering her name.

Qian Jiyun, who was sitting beside her, turned to look at her when he heard her voice.

He explained, “Xue Ling is still in the military camp, but we don’t have that kind of relationship. I’ve never bothered her, Jiuyue.”

“So you don’t have to care about her either” was what he wanted to add, but he kept it to himself.

“Xue Ling is in the military camp?”

An Jiuyue swallowed the food in her mouth and looked up slowly at Qian Jiyun with a faint smile.

If I guessed correctly, the military camp should be on lockdown now. There must be strict enforcement there. How can someone who should be inside the camp show up here?

She refused to believe there was nothing fishy about this.

“You…” Qian Jiyun opened his mouth, puzzled.

Did Jiuyue think of Xue Ling because she heard from my sister that Xue Ling is in the military camp?

“Qian Jiyun, it seems like there are many problems in your military camp.”

An Jiuyue raised her eyebrows at the man and stood up after patting the food crumbs off her chest.

“Wei Na, can you sense where she is?” she asked.

She did not like seeing Xue Ling, but this was a woman who had obviously escaped from the military camp. There would be consequences if they let her run off.
