Chapter 32: Black Eagle is Punished for Its Mistake
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Xia Muqing was speechless. Roasted chicken? That black eagle was really something.
However, she was still relieved to hear that it wasn’t caught.
Just as she was wondering if she should go look for it, the black eagle returned.
The black eagle acted as if it was lost and looked at Xia Muqing innocently.
Xia Muqing smiled gently but she didn’t expose the black eagle.
Seeing that there was still a piece of roasted chicken meat hanging from the black eagle’s mouth, she asked softly, “Is the roasted chicken good?”
Entranced by Xia Muqing’s gentle voice, the black eagle blurted out in a trance. “It’s delicious, but not as good as the grilled fish that you made.”
After saying that, the black eagle immediately covered its face with its wings.
Its guilty expression made Xia Muqing snort.
Hearing her snort, the black eagle almost curled into a ball.
No matter how much it tried to hide, it couldn’t hide its huge body.
“Since you’re disobedient, don’t follow me. Go back to the mountains.”
After Xia Muqing finished speaking, she really ignored the black eagle. She marched towards the entrance of the capital alone.
The black eagle chased after her and swiftly hid when it spotted people.
It spun around anxiously, afraid of attracting attention but not daring to make a sound.
If it caused a commotion again, Xia Muqing would definitely not want it anymore.
The black eagle’s eyes lit up when it recalled Xia Muqing’s method of hiding it from humans.
It soared into the sky and watched Xia Muqing enter the capital before chasing after her.
Xia Muqing followed the direction in her memory and strode to the entrance of the Xia household.
After all, the Xia family was an influential family, and it was said that the last emperor had personally gifted the Xia family’s signboard that hung over their entrance.
Relying on past achievements of fighting battles for the emperor, the family had remained as the number one aristocratic family.
The two stone lions at the door looked more majestic and domineering than other houses.
The two guards were slightly different. Their arrogant expressions made people feel annoyed.
As usual, the guards chased away a group of people who came to the Xia family to pull strings. The people waved their sleeves and turned back arrogantly.
Xia Muqing walked towards the entrance and was about to enter when she was stopped.
The guards looked at Xia Muqing in disdain. Did this girl think that she could enter the Xia family with a mask on?
Xia Muqing took off her mask and revealed her face without any makeup.
The two guards were stunned.
“You don’t even recognize me?”
The guards still recognized Xia Muqing’s face. After all, she didn’t wear paint all the time at home.
But facing Xia Muqing, their attitude became even more arrogant.
Looking at Xia Muqing’s exquisite little face, a hint of lust flashed across their eyes.
They felt that Xia Muqing had become even prettier after disappearing for two months.
They heard rumors that this young lady had eloped with a man. Could she have been abandoned by him?
The two of them glanced at each other and saw disgust in each other’s eyes.
One of the guards chuckled. “Miss, the Xia family doesn’t allow outsiders to enter. We can’t do anything.”
“Are you sure I’m an outsider?”
Xia Mu asked coldly.

The guard wasn’t intimidated at all. Instead, he felt that Xia Muqing was even more interesting.
“Miss, if you want to enter the Xia family, it’s not impossible. Just make us comfortable.”
Both of them burst out laughing.
Xia Muqing didn’t get angry and just smiled. Her smile was so charming that the two of them couldn’t find their bearings.
“Sure.”
When Xia Muqing agreed, lust flashed across their eyes.
Xia Muqing felt disgusted.
Slam! Slam!

Xia Muqing made them fall to the ground.
“Ah!”
The two guards let out blood-curdling screams and fell to the ground, clutching their lower bodies in pain.
“You, you, you—”
The pain rendered the guards speechless. They could only point at Xia Muqing and tremble in anger.
People at the entrance streamed in to report to their master after witnessing this unforeseen incident.
