Chapter 2610: Watching

"Alright, Xiao Jiu has gone to see that ugly monster." Saying this, it fluttered out of the window.

"Ugly monster?" Zi Xia blinked her eyes, feeling that this phrase was very familiar. Who does Xiao Jiu often call that?

"Gu Lingqiao?" Suddenly, Zi Xia remembered, Xiao Jiu loved to call Gu Lingqiao an ugly monster.

Xuexue nodded, "That’s her."

Zi Xia: "Isn’t she pregnant? What’s she doing here in the middle of the Third Watch of the Night?"

Xuexue: "Do you remember last time, when we were having dinner at Qingyun Tower, who did I see?"

Zi Xia looked at Xuexue with confusion and said: "The young lady didn’t say, I didn’t dare to ask, could it be...?"

Xuexue didn’t keep her guessing, "That’s right, it was her. Later, I had Xiao Jiu follow her, and found a big secret."

Zi Xia was puzzled, what secret? Why was the young lady being so mysterious?

Gu Lingqiao was a spy for Wei Country, Zi Xia had known this for a long time. Last time the Prince was in danger, it was her doing.

Zi Xia: "Young lady, what’s going on? Is there any action from Wei Country?"

Xuexue: "Just wait, you’ll know soon."

Zi Xia was a bit worried and said: "Young lady, could there be a trap among them?"

Xuexue: "Why do you think so?"

Zi Xia: "Everyone in the Capital knows that Qinger Building is the young lady’s territory. If they were meeting, why come here of all places, isn’t that courting death? So, I suspect...?"

Xuexue shook her head and said, "Not necessarily, isn’t there a saying in the Itinerant World, ’hidden in plain sight’?"

Zi Xia: "Yes, it’s also possible. Since they dare to come to Moli Country as spies, their courage is certainly greater than the average person."

After a while, Xiao Jiu flapped its wings and fluttered back. As soon as it came in, it exclaimed: "They’re here, they’re here!"

Xuexue stood up with a swoosh: "Where?"

Xiao Jiu landed on the table and took another bite of meat.

Xuexue grew impatient, grabbed it with one hand, brought it in front of her, and stared at its small eyes saying: "Stop being greedy, I’m asking you, where are they?"

This little bird was utterly a glutton, so greedy, unable to walk away from meat.

"Help, help!" Xiao Jiu was suddenly grabbed midair, panicked, and shouted aloud.

"Stop shouting, are you trying to collude with the enemy?" Xuexue said chillingly.

Xiao Jiu then realized it was its master who picked it up, and pitifully said: "Master, why are you like a big villain? Picking someone up without notice? Don’t you know, without feeling grounded, there’s no sense of security? Xiao Jiu was scared by you, shouting is normal."

Xuexue frowned: "So much nonsense, tell me, where are they?"

Only then did Xiao Jiu reluctantly say: "On the second floor, east side, the innermost room."

In the end, it blinked, and said sneakily, "Master, I advise you not to go now. Go later, otherwise, you’ll see something not suitable for children, and don’t say Xiao Jiu didn’t warn you."

After saying this, it let out a sly laugh.

Xuexue and Zi Xia were speechless.

Is this a bird? How does it know everything?

Zi Xia, although a young maiden, with Xiao Jiu saying so, she figured out what it meant, her face turned red.

Xuexue glanced at Xiao Jiu, with a half-smile: "I wondered why you hadn’t come back for so long? Turns out you were peeping at them, huh!"

Xiao Jiu: "What do you mean peeping, I call it observing enemy situations."

At this moment, there was a sound of footsteps outside the door, approaching closer.
