Chapter 317: Meeting Yan Hao again
“You’re leaving today?” The fatty and the others were stunned.
Ye Yu Xi nodded. Time was tight and there was nothing going on in Ningyuan City, so they should head out earlier.
……
The two cities were over a thousand miles apart.
Ye Yu Xi and Nangong Ying Xue quickly rode their horses forward. They didn’t delay on the way, but the trip still took over two days.
“Big sister Yu Xi, there is Snow Shadow City in front.” Nangong Ying Xue used her horse whip to point at the city wall several hundred meters in front of them.
Ye Yu Xi looked at the high walls made of snow white stones. Comparing it with Ningyuan City, just the aura of the city wall was a bit weaker.
Seeing this completely snow white stone, Ye Yu Xi understood why it was called Snow Shadow City. If they didn’t look closely, one would think that it was built of snow.
The two rode their horses forward.
“Stop!” The guards outside the gate stopped Ye Yu Xi and Nangong Ying Xue.
“If outsiders want to enter Snow Shadow City, you have to give two copper coins each.” The guard coldly looked at Ye Yu Xi’s group.
Ye Yu Xi looked over to Nangong Ying Xue beside her.
Snow Shadow City’s rules were strange! At least Ningyuan City didn’t have this entry fee.
“The large cities have always been like this. The entry fee for the capital is even higher.” Nangong Ying Xue explained to Ye Yu Xi before dismounting.
“Audacious!” A man’s voice came from behind Ye Yu Xi’s group.
Ye Yu Xi turned around to take a look and found that it was actually him!
Standing behind Ye Yu Xi and Nangong Ying Xue was the Snow Shadow City’s City Lord’s son, Yan Hao!
Yan Hao had just returned from taking care of something outside the city with several followers and had passed through here.
Yan Hao quickly came over and and looked over Ye Yu Xi sitting on her horse. Ye Yu Xi’s beauty slightly surprised Yan Hao as he thought: Such a beautiful girl!
But Yan Hao didn’t spare much attention to Ye Yu Xi, just sweeping over her before moving in front of the two guards.
“Audacious! Don’t you know miss Nangong! Things without eyes!” Yan Hao came over and immediately began to “reprimand” the guards at the gate. However, everyone could hear that his words were all said for Nangong Ying Xue.
“Young master Yan is too polite. They were just following the rules, there is no need to blame them.” Nangong Ying Xue revealed a smile.
Yan Hao gave a slight bow to Nangong Ying Xue, “I found miss Nangong’s back familiar from the distance, but I never thought it would really be miss Nangong. Miss Nangong, the one beside you is?”
Yan Hao looked at Ye Yu Xi on the horse.
“This is one of my customers. We were heading to the capital and passed by Snow Shadow City for a stroll.” Nangong Ying Xue said with a smile.
Yan Hao took several looks at Ye Yu Xi before looking away. He kept talking to Nangong Ying Xue, “Since you came to Snow Shadow City, you have to let this Yan show you around.”
“I won’t trouble young master Yan.” Nangong Ying Xue quickly thanked Yan Hao for his kindness.
She and big sister Yu Xi had things to do, how could they have time to spare for him?
“Since it’s like this, I’ll entertain miss Nangong in the future if there is a chance.” A disappointed look flashed in Yan Hao’s eyes, but his tone was still very sincere.
Ye Yu Xi and Nangong Ying Xue separated from Yan Hao after entering the city.
Walking on the street, Ye Yu Xi asked Nangong Ying Xue beside her, “Ying Xue, you know that Yan Hao? I can see that the way he looks at you is a bit wrong.”
“We don’t really know each other. For someone as ambitious as Yan Hao, he frequently comes to our Feathered Wing group to buy information. After a few times, we’ve become familiar with one another.”
