Quick Wear: The Short-lived Female Supporting Character Does Not Want to Be a Heartthrob

The three men were running for their lives on the rugged road. The coachman who lost his horse was so scared that he immediately asked to go into the manor to inform his employer.

The guard standing at the door also saw what happened, so he let the coachman in.

The coachman followed the instructions of the manor servant to the place where the guests were holding the banquet, and after finding his master, he reported the matter.

"What did you say? The manor's servants stole the carriage?"

A noble lady's sharp voice suddenly sounded, instantly attracting the attention of the other visitors.

Count Alipu also noticed the sudden silence among the crowd, so he walked over to inquire about the situation.

The coachman whose carriage was robbed immediately reported the situation at the gate of Condon Manor. When he heard that two women had got on the carriage, the Earl felt a little uneasy.

He said to the captain of the guards who came over: "Send a few people out to find and bring back the carriage."

"Yes, Lord Earl!"

Count Alipu apologized to everyone around him again, and then he went to the yard where the mermaid was looked after.

After entering, he shouted a few times but there was no movement on the water surface.

So he shouted outside irritably: "Someone, come quickly."

The captain of the guards heard Alipu's shout and came in immediately: "My Lord Earl, what do you want?"

"Get someone to go down and see if there's anything inside."

When the captain of the guards heard this, his heart skipped a beat.

He had seen with his own eyes the mermaid imprisoned in the pool in front of him. He had also seen the beautiful mermaid tearing the body of a guard. The bloody scene instantly appeared in his mind.

However, he dared not disobey the Earl's order and immediately went out to call for help.

Finally, under the pressure of the Earl and the captain of the guard, two or three guards jumped into the pool. After a while, they all shook their heads.

"Report to the Earl, there is nothing here."

When Alipu heard this, he instantly became angry and said, "Keep looking."

"And you, search every corner of this yard, quickly."

So the captain of the guards ordered the guards underground to take action immediately, and soon someone came back to say that one of the rooms was in a mess, with the bed sheets gone and some scraps of cloth scattered on the floor.

When Alipu heard this, he looked at the wet thing that the captain of the guard had just dug out from the bushes.

Those were exactly the bed sheets and curtains. An evil thought suddenly came to his mind. He was so angry that he slapped the captain of the guards hard in the face.

"You good-for-nothings can't even keep an eye on one person."

"Send someone to chase them quickly, and bring the woman in the carriage back."

"Yes, Lord Count."

The captain's face was swollen, but he still gritted his teeth and took on the task.

"Come with me and chase them." Soon the captain of the guards took away most of the guards, and the remaining small number stayed behind to continue protecting Alipu.

It’s okay to walk during the day, but it’s really disadvantageous for Wan Ning and the others at night.

Because they were unfamiliar with the route, they didn't know which shortcut would be possible, so they could only follow the route they took during the day.

After the carriage got stuck in a pit, Wan Ning frowned: "Gerry, this won't work. If they find out that Susan is missing, they will catch up with us soon."

Susan was also very anxious: "What should we do? How far is it to the beach?"

Gerry jumped off the carriage anxiously and tried to reach out and pull the horse to the side.

Seeing this, Wan Ning thought for a moment and said, "Abandon the chariot and only take the horse."

Her suggestion was good, and Susan thought it was feasible: "But can the horse carry the three of us?"

Wan Ning glanced at her and said, "We have to carry it even if we can't. This is our fastest way."

While the two were talking, Gerry had already started to untie the ropes connecting the carriage and the horses.

After a while of effort to untie the rope, Wan Ning called Susan again: "Let's push the carriage further in, so that they don't see it. This way we can buy some time."

"Oh well."

Susan and Wan Ning worked together to push the carriage back, while Gary led the horse towards the road.

Although the horse's hooves often seemed to want to kick him, Gerry was not afraid.

When the three of them reached the road, Gerry jumped on the horse first.

Wan Ning helped Susan to go up second, and then Susan pulled Wan Ning up.

"Go," Gary pulled the reins in his hand and asked the horse to go.

Seeing this, Wan Ning interjected, "Hey, Gerry, when you want it to stop, just shout 'whoosh', okay?"

Gerry listened to the advice and replied loudly, "Okay, I understand."

Without the burden of the carriage, the three men ran much faster.

But without the wheels behind it, the horse suddenly felt a lot lighter than before, so it started running.

Meanwhile, at the manor, a guest noticed that the returning earl looked depressed, so he asked some questions.

Alipu forced a smile and said that something had happened. "The party has to be terminated, everyone. I'm very sorry."

In response to the Earl's words, the others of course respectfully said it was okay.

So everyone started to disperse, and Peixi thought of Wan Ning at this time, and he frowned and thought.

Seeing this, the friend next to him asked quietly: "What's wrong, Peixi? Are you unhappy that the party ended so suddenly?"

Peixi immediately responded with a smile: "No, you're overthinking it, Gray."

He was worried about another thing. What if Wan Ning was among the people who were in cahoots with the car thieves at the manor gate?

Is the woman who was taken away really the one she is looking for? Will Wan Ning escape safely?

A series of things immediately emerged in his mind, making him uneasy.

********

Three people and one horse were forced to stop after running for a while.

Because he didn't know the road, Gary had no choice but to tighten the reins in his hands to stop the horse.

Susan looked back from time to time, and when she saw Gerry stop, she asked anxiously, "What's wrong, Gerry? Aren't we leaving?"

Although Wan Ning was also anxious, she also gently comforted Susan: "Don't be afraid, Susan, we will be fine."

Gary explained, "It's no use running around like a headless fly. I think we should find a place to hide first and go out after daybreak."

So the three men dismounted, and Gary led the horses into an alley.

It was pitch black all around, but luckily we had someone to keep us company so we didn't feel lonely or scared.

After tying the horse to a stone pillar, Gary asked Wan Ning and Susan to sit down and rest beside it while he went to guard the intersection.

"Okay, then be careful."

Susan gave Gerry instructions, and then Gerry went to the front.
