Quick Wear: The Wronged One Becomes Rebellious

Chapter 494 Everyone Calls Me 'Cinderella' 12

Cinderella touched her face which was as smooth as a peeled egg and said, "What kind of idiotic look does Prince have? I just changed my clothes and you didn't recognize me."

If this is what love is, it's too shallow.

However, she and Prince Henry had only known each other for the time being, so talking about love was really wishful thinking!

Cinderella racked her brains but couldn't figure out what kind of deal Prince Henry could negotiate with her, so she simply gave up thinking about it, as she would know the answer tomorrow night anyway.

Cinderella looked up at the starry night sky again, missing her only friend in this world.

"It would be nice if Crane was here, at least he could talk to me!"

"Cuckoo----"

"Aunt is here!" Cinderella came back to her senses, she heard Crane's voice. Worried about the poor visibility at night, Gu Li even waved with one hand!

"Crane!"

The white dove Crane flapped its wings and landed accurately into Cinderella's skirt pocket.

In the dim moonlight, Gu Li looked down and the corners of her mouth twitched.

The angry Crane used his thin claws to step on the lizard's head with one foot and on the mouse's back with the other, looking as majestic as an enraged knight!

The lizards and mice that were very lively just now were now as quiet as chickens, huddled under Crane's feet and dared not move.

Gu Li was puzzled, "They seem to be afraid of you?"

Lizards, mice, and pigeons, are there such obvious food chain properties between them?

"Cinderella, it's so late, why haven't you come back yet? I've been waiting for you for a long time!" Crane stomped his feet and said.

"The carriage is gone, so I can only go back on foot!" The pumpkin was too heavy for her to carry, so she had to give up.

Crane in the skirt pocket was thrown up and down and flew up. After a circle, he exclaimed: "Cinderella, is your foot hurt?"

"It might be sprained, but it shouldn't be serious!"

But Crane didn't think so, "Stop, Cinderella, don't go away, throw away those stupid things in your skirt pocket!"

"Ah, I came here with them, so of course I have to go back with them." After they are recycled, they will be used again tomorrow.

Her steed, her butler!

Gu Li's eyes blurred and she felt as if a bolt of lightning had struck her. The little animal in her skirt pocket seemed to have been struck by lightning. It squeaked and bounced to the ground, then ran for its life and disappeared into the bushes.

Gu Li: ------

Crane fluttered at Gu Li's skirt, trying to check her injuries, but as a tiny pigeon, he couldn't even lift her skirt.

Gu Li understood its concern for her, smiled, bent down and held it in front of her eyes, "Crown, I'm fine, it doesn't hurt that much anymore. It's good enough to have you accompany me and talk on the way back!"

How could this be enough? Crane kept turning his head and asked tentatively: "Cinderella, let me take you home. I have medicinal wine to treat bruises and injuries!"

"Okay." Gu Li didn't understand which family he was talking about, and responded quickly.

"I'm asking you to come home with me!"

"Yes. Isn't my home your home?" Gu Li smiled and said sincerely, "I don't know why, but I always feel like communicating with you is like talking to a gentleman."

Gu Li tapped Crane's sharp beak, "You are not really a human in disguise!"

The pigeon in the palm of the hand suddenly became stiff. If it was not still held in Gu Li's hand, it would have fainted.

Gu Lihai's blue eyes darkened, and she stared into Crane's small eyes, waiting for his answer.

Crane dodged his gaze and spoke in a cautious voice, "If, if I could really become a human, would Cinderella still be willing to be my friend?"

"Of course, I think I would be happier if Crane was a human instead of a pigeon."

"But I want to know whether you are a man or a woman-----"

Before Gu Li could finish her words, the scenery in front of her suddenly distorted and after two quick flashes, she was standing at the door of a lonely three-story tower.

The little white dove in my hand disappeared.

This is where?

It was pitch black all around, and the only sound I could hear was the rustling of the trees in the wind. In the distance, there seemed to be the sound of a fountain and the chirping of birds.

It seemed like she was kidnapped into the forest!

"Crane?" Gu Li did not rush to knock on the door of the tower, but just stood there and called out softly.

"Cuckoo."

The familiar sound of pigeons came from the tower. Gu Li looked up at the lighted second floor and called out again, "Crane, is that you?"

"Gugu---"

Gu Li:-----

I stepped onto the steps at the door and knocked on the pine door. "Is anyone home? I, my pigeons seem to have run to your house. I-----"

Gu Li felt that she didn't use much force, but she easily knocked open a crack in the thick door.

"I, I knocked on the door, so I came in?"

Without objection, Gu Li gently pushed the wooden door and leaned half of her body in.

"Is anyone there?"

This tower looks small from the outside, but the actual space inside is very large.

A circle of walls on the first floor is lined with various ancient books, and in the center of the room is a long wooden table about six or seven meters long.

There were all kinds of bottles and jars piled up in a mess, some of which contained colorful unknown liquids.

There were also boxes of various sizes piled under the table, and I didn't know what was inside.

The floor was covered with thick grey wool carpet, which would not make any sound even if an elephant came and stepped on it.

Gu Li hesitated. This place didn't look like a place where normal people lived. Could she have accidentally entered a witch's lair?

"I-----" I only took a second to think about it, "Sorry to bother you, I'll leave now!"

Gu Li was about to get away when a black object in the corner opposite the long table moved. Curiosity made Gu Li pause for a second, and in that second, the black shadow slowly stood up.

It's a person.

It's too late to leave.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to break into your house. My pigeon was missing, and I happened to hear the pigeon's cry from the second floor of your house, so I knocked on the door."

The man was facing sideways, so Gu Li couldn't see his face. He was wearing a black cloak, and even though he was in his own house, he didn't take off his hood.

A long, loose cloak covered him from head to toe.

Seeing that the man still didn't speak, Gu Li didn't want to stay any longer, "Then, then I'll leave now."

Gu Li turned around to leave, but the door suddenly closed, and a familiar voice came from behind her, "Don't go!"

Gu Li suddenly turned around and looked at the cloaked man, "Who are you?"

The cloaked man stopped talking, but the hood on his head drooped slightly, making him look like a child admitting his mistake and lowering his head.

The atmosphere suddenly became subtle. Gu Li mustered up the courage to take two steps forward, but the cloaked man actually took small steps back quietly.

Gu Li:-----

As one thing grows stronger, the other declines. It has always been that either the east wind prevails over the west wind, or the west wind prevails over the east wind!

Gu Li's steps became lighter.

As she slowly approached the cloaked man, he seemed to flinch, his hands resting on the corner of the table being the only part of his skin exposed.

Pale and thin, he was holding tightly onto the corner of the table, as if he would faint at any moment if he lost this little support.
