Bab 1151: Chapter 1148_1

In the carriage

Recalling how she swam last night in the void and ended up falling asleep from fatigue right in the water, Xiao'er couldn't remember swimming to the shore before she drifted off to sleep. Hesitantly, she asked: "Brother Shangguan, how did we get to shore last night?"

Shangguan Xuanyi looked up from his book and gazed at her after hearing her words: "What do you think?" he asked.

"Did I guide us to shore with my consciousness?" Xiao'er instinctively hoped this was the case, otherwise, she hadn't served to relieve Shangguan Xuanyi of his stress but had added to it!

"Impossible! It was I who swam us to shore while you were sound asleep! My dear, I was utterly exhausted for your sake last night; how do you plan on compensating me, hm?"
