Chapter 37: Satisfied With the Little Courtyard
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
That thatched hut couldn’t be compared at all.
Why wasn’t anyone staying in such a splendid residence?
Xia Muqing raised her eyebrows but she didn’t dwell too much on that. It had nothing to do with her.
As soon as she lay down, she heard sounds outside the window.
The unidentified sounds were from an unknown source.
Hearing the commotion, Xia Muqing suddenly understood and stood up.
She walked to the window and opened it forcefully.
She saw the black eagle outside the window in a daze. Clearly, it had been shocked by the sudden opening of the window.
During this period of time together, Xia Muqing could incredibly identify the expressions on the black eagle’s black feathery face.
“You don’t reckon I can’t hear such a loud noise, do you?”
The black eagle who knew that it had made a mistake again, lowered its head in disappointment.
Xia Muqing sighed again. “Do you know your mistake now?”
The black eagle hurriedly nodded its head. It used so much force that it even knocked against the window with a loud bang.
Xia Muqing held its head and rubbed it. “All right, does it hurt? Why did you hit it?”
The black eagle chuckled. “Sister, I won’t do that again.”
Xia Muqing accepted the black eagle’s apology but she didn’t elaborate.
Pointing at the back of the mountain behind the garden, she said, “You’ll stay at the back of the mountain for the next few days. As long as no one sees you, you can do anything you want. You’ll hide whenever you see anyone, okay?”
The black eagle nodded obediently.
Xia Muqing thought for a moment and added, “Don’t look for me during the day if there is nothing important. You can come at night.”
The black eagle looked at Xia Muqing in a daze, thinking that she looked even more beautiful under the moonlight.
“Sister, you’re so pretty.”
The black eagle’s infatuated look made Xia Muqing feel helpless.
She slapped its head and asked again.
“Did you hear what I just said?”
The black eagle covered its head and replied, “I understood, Sister.”
Xia Muqing then let it go.
The black eagle didn’t fly. It used its legs to walk to the back of the mountain and jumped as it moved.
Xia Muqing gazed at the figure who jumped high and low in the distance. It resembled Donald Duck.

If its father, the giant eagle, witnessed its silly actions, it would probably want a second child.
Hold on.
It seemed to already have a second child.
That thought made Xia Muqing laugh out loud. The black eagle’s joy had also infected Xia Muqing.
She decided to cook some delicious food for it tomorrow. The reason why it made a mistake this time was probably because it didn’t eat well during the journey.
What a glutton.
Speaking of gluttony, Xia Muqing thought of Gungun.
It seemed like the beasts around her were all gluttons.
It was the same in her previous life. She had developed revolutionary friendships with many animals through food.
Xia Muqing refused to admit that she was a glutton herself as well.
This time, no one came to disturb her.
Xia Muqing had a good sleep.
The next morning, a loud scream woke up the entire Xia family.
Xia Chuxing stared at the servants lying on the floor, their clothes disheveled.
She lowered her head and realized that she was lying on the floor with her clothes disheveled as well.
Feeling the soreness and discomfort in her body, Xia Chuxing knew what had happened to her even without experience.
At that moment, she felt dizzy.
She had no idea what to do.
The door suddenly swung open. Xia Chuxing looked up and felt even more dizzy.
Old Master Xia, Madam Ruan, Xia Churan, and the family servants stood at the door.
Xia Chuxing couldn’t accept her situation and fainted.
The stunned crowd finally reacted.
Xia Churan immediately chased all the servants out.
However, it was already too late to undo everything. Everyone had witnessed the scene just now.
The servants didn’t mention a word, but they discussed among themselves.
It was rumored that Miss Xia Muqing was promiscuous, but she only had one man.
