Camping

At the same day, Chen Ruilong prepared a beautiful carriage for Chen Yue and Mei Yin to use. At first, Mei Yin wants to be on the same carriage with her Uncle Sun. But her Uncle Sun denied her request and forced Mei Yin to be on the same carriage as Chen Yue. Mei Yin embarrassed by that, stomps her feet angrily and pouted like a little child.

Grandpa Chen also let Xiao Ke and Jin Tian accompany Chen Yue going to the Flowing Water City. Jin Tian was tasked to drive Chen Yue's carriage while Xiao Ke was inside helping Chen Yue feel comfortable. When Mei Yin realize that Xiao Ke will be joining them inside the carriage, she was both happy and sad about it.

Before they start their travel, Chen Ruilong reminded them to be careful and on alert as there are bandit groups in the area where they will go through. Grandpa Chen wanted to add some bodyguards for his grandson, but Chen Yue rejected it saying that Jin Tian is already enough. When Jin Tian heard that his young master said that he was already enough, he couldn't help but raise his head with a proud look on his face. When grandpa Chen saw his face, he smacked Jin Tian in the head and shouted at him.

Inside the carriage, Chen Yue was sitting leisurely. Beside him was Mei Yin who is from time to time would sneak glances at him then shyly fiddle with her fingers.

"Young master we would be arriving at the corner of the Magical Beast Forest. This is the place where bandits usually ambushed their victims. If we were attacked, young master should just stay inside the carriage with young lady Mei and let me handle the situation" Jin Tian's voice came from outside the carriage. Chen Yue look at the window and saw the dense forest nearby. He was familiar in this place, because he also trained here for a month. But at that time while he was training, he didn't encounter any bandits in the area.

"Yin'er can you tell me about the Flowing Water City. What other families are in control of the city" Chen Yue wanted to know more about the Flowing Water City. The only family he knew was the Mei family, which where Mei Yin came from.

"Brother Chen wanted to know about the Flowing Water City?" Mei Yin look at Chen Yue in surprised. She didn't imagine that he would be interested in the city as Chen Yue came from one of the leading power in the capital.

"Yes, it would be better to know something about the city than knowing nothing" Mei Yin nodded her head in understanding when she heard his reply.

"Brother Chen, in Flowing Water City there are three major families that controls them. The leading family which hold the military power in the city is the Fang family which the current city lord came from. The next family is our Mei family, our Mei family mainly do business in the city and it is also where our major income came from. The third family is the Liu family" when mentioning the Liu family, Mei Yin's expression become somewhat dark, "The Liu family is the one in control of the underground in the Flowing Water City. They are involved in many criminal activities, because of that, the Fang family and the Liu family were always at each others throat. While our Mei family maintained being neutral in all this years"

"It is also thanks to our connection with the Chen family that those two families dare not to provoke us. They are afraid of what would happen if the Chen family who controls the strongest army in the empire gets involved in the conflict in the city" Mei Yin explained to Chen Yue. She was grateful towards the Chen family for what they have done not only for her, but also to her Mei family.

After listening to Mei Yin, Chen Yue thought for a moment. For now, he had some knowledge about the happenings in the Flowing Water City. Their carriage continues to travel until the sky turned dark.

"Young master we will be resting here for the night. There is a nearby river in the area, if young master wants it, young master can take a bath while we prepare the camp and the food" Jin Tian stopped the carriage beside the road just nearby the river.

When Chen Yue and Mei Yin get off the carriage, sounds of flowing water could be heard. But what surprises them when they get off the carriage was that, there are also several carriages parked just several meters away from them.

Jin Tian saw that Chen Yue was staring at the carriages ahead of them and said, "Young master, they are a merchant caravan from the capital. Their destination is also the Flowing Water City"

Chen Yue nodded his head and noticed that Uncle Sun was walking towards them with a smile on his face, "Young master Chen, I hope you didn't get tired of the journey. We will just rest here and leave tomorrow morning and arrive at the city in the evening"

Chen Yue talked to Uncle Sun for several minutes before Uncle Sun left to help prepare the camp. Chen Yue glanced at Mei Yin who was sitting in a rock while staring at the night sky. With the bright moon as the light in the dark night, Mei Yin was like a celestial maiden alone in the mortal world. Chen Yue admired her beauty for some time before going to her and said, "Yin'er why don't you take a bath first while they prepare the food"

Mei Yin woke up from her stupor when she heard Chen Yue's voice. But then her face turned red when she realized what he just said so she asked, "Will Brother Chen take a bath with me?"

Chen Yue felt his throat becomes dry when he heard Mei Yin's seductive voice and appearance. Her bright eyes that were staring up at him were as clear as crystal lake. Chen Yue then smiled and said, "If Yin'er wants me to accompany her in her bath, I will definitely agree"

Mei Yin's whole body trembled and her face turned bright red like an apple. With a soft voice she said, "T..t..t..then I..I...I will be waiting" after saying those words like a mosquito, Mei Yin run off immediately leaving the dumbfounded Chen Yue standing alone.

Without the two knowing, Uncle Sun were watching them while helping prepare some food. When she saw the embarrassed expression from her niece, he knew that it was a good thing. His old heart almost couldn't contain the excitement as if he was the one in love.

After several minutes, Chen Yue then laugh loudly and walk towards where Mei Yin run off. But as he walked towards the river, he heard a loud shout. He turned towards where the shout came from and knew that it came from the caravan ahead of them.

Chen Yue then immediately run where Mei Yin is to check if she is alright. But when he arrived beside the river, he saw Mei Yin was in the middle of removing her underwear. With her back turned against him, Mei Yin didn't notice that Chen Yue arrived. Her long flowing red hair was loosely down that reach to her back. Mei Yin was leaning forward so those jade white buttocks of hers and the 'other' was in full display in his eyes.

Mei Yin seems to notice something and turned around. Her eyes widened when she saw Chen Yue staring at her. The last piece of her underwear falls into the ground and her full self was exposed. The two just stares at each other and they even forgot to breath.
