The next morning, everyone was packed and ready to depart.
The village had been cleaned spotlessly, and the heavy rain had washed everything away, leaving not a single trace behind.
You couldn't tell at all that a bloody battle had taken place here the day before.
Hua Manman walked toward the carriage as usual.
But halfway there, she was stopped by the Regent King.
Li Ji patted the fine steed beside him and said coldly.
"What kind of man rides in a carriage? Get over here and ride a horse!"
Hua Manman really wanted to retort.
'I'm not a man, I'm a young lady!'
But her common sense made her swallow those words.
She put on a look of being both surprised and flattered, replying timidly.
"Thank you for your kind intentions, Regent Prince, but I was injured from riding not long ago, and I'm rather traumatized by it.
I don't want to ride a horse again for a while. I hope Your Highness will understand."
