Chapter 977 - 979: Intercepted
"Then where’s your second-in-command?"
Xiaoxiao thought, since that Big Boss has left again, she might as well find other people in charge. After all, the Big Boss just ordered to release her.
Bandit: "The second-in-command is also out."
Xiaoxiao: "Then what about the third-in-command?"
Bandit: "The third-in-command is not here either!"
Xiaoxiao was speechless; what on earth is going on here? Everyone has left, so who’s running the stockade?
Xiaoxiao was about to ask more when Yuniang pulled her aside, "Miss, since none of them are here, just wait a bit longer."
"Big sister, isn’t there anyone else in charge?"
Yuniang shook her head, indicating no.
"..." Xiaoxiao was utterly exasperated. Such a big stockade, and only those three are in charge? There’s not even a basic management structure?
Seeing Xiaoxiao’s somewhat angry face, Yuniang continued to persuade, "Miss, they’ll be back soon, just wait a while."
Xiaoxiao was so furious that she was grinding her teeth, very angrily turning to head back inside.
Yet Yuniang stopped her again, apologetically saying, "Miss, let’s wait outside, the Big Boss ordered not to let anyone into his room again."
Xiaoxiao put her hands on her forehead, she’d actually forgotten about this. The Big Boss was in a rage earlier; she better not provoke him, lest she can’t leave this mountain.
She stomped her foot in anger and turned to walk toward the little bridge by the stream. Fine, she’ll wait and see.
Standing there, she wasn’t in the mood to enjoy the view, completely dazed.
She stood for just about fifteen minutes and couldn’t stand it anymore. She couldn’t wait another moment; she had to get down the mountain. Yang Ming must be going crazy.
Besides, she was feeling uncertain now, what if Yang Ming was beaten badly or even to death?
She couldn’t dare think any further.
She lifted her leg to leave, talking as she walked, "Big sister, let’s go to the kitchen!"
"Miss, are you hungry?" Yuniang asked.
"Yeah, I’m hungry."
Yuniang had no choice but to accompany Xiaoxiao to the kitchen.
The kitchen was busy preparing pork dishes, even though the celebration was canceled, it didn’t affect the stockade’s welcome for the Big Boss.
The food was being prepared by the women of the stockade.
Once Xiaoxiao entered, she grabbed some food and stuffed a few bites into her mouth, completely unlike a lady.
The women cooking in the kitchen were speechless; compared to them, this girl looked more like a bandit.
"Miss, eat slowly!"
But Xiaoxiao didn’t have the international time for that; she wanted to fill up and take some food with her because she decided to leave the mountain herself.
In a few bites, she finished eating, then searched the kitchen for something to wrap the food in.
She grabbed a few steamed buns, wrapped some meat, and took a bamboo tube filled with water.
With everything ready, she slung the food on her back, "Big sister, I’m off!"
"Miss?" Yuniang was extremely startled, it’s very dangerous outside.
Xiaoxiao couldn’t care less; she was certainly scared to death, but she couldn’t not leave, so she had to take a risk.
Xiaoxiao strode toward the stockade gate, with Yuniang following anxiously, "Miss, you can’t, it’s very dangerous outside, you should wait for someone from the stockade to escort you down the mountain."
"Big sister, thank you, but I can’t wait, I’m going down the mountain myself."
Xiaoxiao thought it would go smoothly, but she was intercepted at the stockade gate.
Xiaoxiao was nearly furious to death, "Your Big Boss already agreed to let me go, what on earth does this interception mean?"
