Chapter 648 Morning In Youxio Valley
After Xi Ling woke up, Li Rui wiped his face with a wet cloth. She used the water that was inside the tent already."Mother, where are we?"
Li Rui smiled as she stroked his head and answered
"We are down a valley…a very beautiful valley."
She remembered how Xi Ling used to look at all those mountains and valleys drawn inside those books. She would see the curiousness and the desperate wish to see those things with his eyes. However, she didn\'t know what she should do at that time as her son\'s life was in no less danger than hers.
"Beautiful valley…"
Sure enough, Xi Ling\'s eyes brightened and he immediately tried to climb down from the bed as he said eagerly.
"Mother, Xi Ling wants to go out and see…"
Li Rui smiled while Xi Ying immediately blocked his son\'s way and said in a strict voice
"Where are your greetings of the new day?"
He also flicked his forehead with his finger making Xi Ling let out a loud \'oh\'. With teary eyes, Xi Ling looked at his father who looked no less than a bully to him right now. However, he knew better than to argue with him right now.
He just turned around to greet his mother and then greeted his father.
"Good."
Xi Ying said calmly, however, still didn\'t move out of his way.
Li Rui sighed as she couldn\'t help but pity her son. She had never been able to understand what kind of sadistic pleasure did her husband get in teasing their son so much.
She got up from the bed and held his small hand as she said
"Mother and Xiao Ling will go out together then."
Since his wife had said this now, Xi Ying could only leave the way of mother and son.
His lips twitched as he looked at the mother and son leaving him inside the tent heartlessly. What was he going to do here alone!
He followed them out silently.
"Wow…"
Xi Ling couldn\'t close his mouth as he looked all over the valley.
He held his mother\'s hand tightly in excitement as he spoke loudly in a very excited tone.
"Mother…this is so beautiful…"
"Mother, can we go there?"
Xi Ling pointed his finger towards a tree that was standing on the slope of the valley. He didn\'t know why he just wanted to go there.
In fact, he wanted to visit the whole valley.
The shadow guards who were working around and making arrangements for the breakfast heard Xi Ling\'s voice and stopped working.
Almost all of them walked to him and said eagerly
"Yes, I can take you there."
However, one had just finished speaking when the other spoke
"No, I will take you there…we can also go and visit some other beautiful places around the valley…"
It didn\'t finish here. Xi Ling got so many offers that after a few moments, he was very confused about whom should he choose for his adventures.
Li Rui was watching all this with a calm smile on her lips. She felt happy for her son while Xi Ying thought the shadow guards were behaving very weirdly.
They were offering anything wildly. Did they even ask him whether he would send his son with them or not!
And why would he send him with anyone of them? He could take him to watch the valley if he was so eager.
Fortunately, Gu Li soon came there to stop their chattering.
"Have you all finished making the breakfast and arranging the tables?"
As soon as his cold and strict voice sounded, everyone stopped talking and ran away from there as if their tail was on fire.
Gu Li nodded his head in satisfaction and walked toward Li Rui and her family.
"Did you sleep well?"
He asked Li Rui gently. When she nodded her head, he was relieved and finally looked at Xi Ying as he said
"I hope Prime Minister Xi didn\'t face any trouble in sleeping last night."
"No trouble."
Xi Ying answered and Gu Li nodded his head.
His eyes finally went to Xi Ling and he couldn\'t help but smile looking at his curiousness-filled eyes. For once, Gu Li felt fortunate that he had been wearing the mask when he had attacked Li Rui and Xi Ling under Zhao Wang Lei\'s order.
Otherwise, he would have never been able to look into Xi Ling\'s eyes knowing that the latter knew that he tried to kill his mother and him as well.
Now that he looked into his clean black eyes, Gu Li wondered how he didn\'t recognize him at the first glance. He looked so much like the young Mi Luan…especially his eyes.
"Do you want to visit the valley?"
He asked him gently. Xi Ling immediately nodded his small head.
Gu Li smiled and looked at Li Rui as if asking if she had any problem. Li Rui agreed without any hesitation and Xi Ying could only keep his mouth shut.
However, silently he decided to accompany both of them when they would leave.
Just at that moment, a shadow guard came and informed Gu Li that the breakfast was almost ready but sitting arrangements were made. Gu Li nodded his head and then asked Li Rui and Xi Ying if they wanted to have breakfast immediately.
Li Rui knew that the three of them were yet to freshen up and take a bath so she refused. Gu Li nodded his head in understanding and told the shadow guard that they would be having it a shichen later.
The shadow guard left from there to tell his companions to keep the food on a very light fire so that it will stay hot by the time they will start eating.
Before leaving there, Gu Li informed Xi Ying that there was a hot spring of water in the east of the valley. Xi Ying nodded his head.
An San had told him about this before leaving.
After Gu Li left from there, Xi Ying took Li Rui and Xi Ling to the hot spring. An Ju took Li Hua there so that the latter could help Li Rui.
After one and half a shichen, Xi Ying returned with his family, and then they had breakfast with the Youxio\'s shadow guards.
Xi Ying was worried when he saw that there was only meat on the table.
Knowing that Li Rui didn\'t eat too much meat, he stood up from the table to bring fruits from somewhere around the valley. They had some leftover food and dry food that they had brought with them.
He was thinking of bringing all those things until he would come back with the fruits for his wife.
However, before he could stand up, he saw Gu Li walking toward them and putting a big basket and then a bowl on the table.
