Chapter 237 Willful Young Miss (2)
We looked at her with confused looks as I asked, "How are you so certain of this?"
Ronnie said with a bright smile, "Instinct."
We looked at each other with shocked looks before we both revealed bitter smiles.
We really couldn't do anything to this girl. Whether it was her instinct or her courage, there was no fault at all.
It seemed that no matter what we tried, we wouldn't be able to get rid of her.
So I considered…using force to push her off the carriage.
Shaka looked like he had the same idea as me, but before either of us could do a thing, there was a voice that called out, "Young miss, don't run so fast next time!"
We turned to look in the direction of this voice and we found that it was a gray haired man driving a carriage over towards us.
But even though this man had gray hair, he was anything but withered.
We could see the muscles that were bulging out all over his body and his face was covered in scars. It was clear that this was a man who had been in many battles before and was very strong.
As he came closer and closer in the carriage, we could feel the pressure that came from him.
Unless he had been through countless battles, it was impossible for this man to have this kind of aura.
I looked at Shaka and he shook his head.
It seemed like he wasn't confident in taking care of this gray haired man.
He was certain that he wouldn't lose, but he knew that it was impossible to take care of this gray haired man without creating a fuss. They wanted to draw as little attention to themselves as possible, so they couldn't do that.
So for now, they would see how this situation developed.
But it was clear that this gray haired man was a bodyguard that Ronnie's family had sent to take care of her.
Just who was Ronnie that she could have a bodyguard follow her like this?
Ronnie waved her hand at the gray haired man in the carriage and said, "Uncle Ron, that's your fault for taking so long! Do you know how long I was waiting for you to get here?"
The gray haired old man named Ron drove over and parked his carriage beside ours before saying, "Young miss, you know that you shouldn't run off like that. What if someone wanted to hurt you? How could this Ron repay the master if that ever happened?"
Ronnie just said with a smile, "Uncle Ron, you're being too serious! Nothing will happen here."
Ron had a worried look still, but then he noticed the two of us.
During this time, his eyes had been on Ronnie the entire time, so he actually hadn't noticed us even though we were standing right here.
When he noticed us, he immediately went over to Ronnie's side and pulled her behind him before saying, "Young miss, who are these people?"
Ronnie had an annoyed look at being treated like this, but she still said, "These are two friends that I met yesterday."
Ron narrowed his eyes to look at us, but then his eyes went to Shaka.
It was just like how Shaka had sized up Ron when he appeared, Ron was now sizing up Shaka.
As for why he ignored me…well, he had deemed that I wasn't a threat. Or at least I wasn't a threat compared to Shaka.
After judging Shaka for a bit, he pulled his hand back and drew Ronnie a bit further back, as if he was judging that Shaka was dangerous.
When Shaka saw this, he looked at me with a satisfied look, almost as if he was saying, "Do you see how powerful I am?"
I gave a secret bitter laugh, but I didn't say anything as I kept my expression calm.
After making sure that we weren't planning on doing anything dangerous to Ronnie, Ron relaxed a bit and said, "Young miss, we should get going. The roads will be blocked if we wait any longer and we won't be able to make it back in time if that happens."
Ronnie shook her head and said, "Uncle Ron, change of plans! We're going with them."
"Huh?" Ron said with a confused look before exclaiming, "Young miss, what are you saying?"
Ronnie said with a smile, "They said that they discovered some ruins, so we're going with them."
Ron immediately shut this down as soon as he heard this by saying, "Young miss! What are you saying! Exploring ruins with people that you just met is just too dangerous! How could I ever let you do something like this!"
When we saw Ron acting this way, both Shaka and I started cheering for him.
We didn't have a way to deal with Ronnie, but if Ron had a way to stop her, we were all for it.
So we waited to see how it would turn out.
But we were soon met with disappointment.
After hearing what Ron said, Ronnie immediately revealed a dissatisfied look before saying, "And I say that we're going with them, what are you going to do?"
Ron knitted his brows when he saw this because he knew what kind of personality this young miss of his had. If she decided on something, there was no way that he would be able to convince her otherwise…unless he used…
Ron gave a cough and said, "Young miss, if you keep acting willfully like this, you leave me with no choice. When we get back, I might need to have a talk with the master and madame."
Ronnie didn't reveal a scared look like one might think and instead, she said with a sly smile, "If you do that, I'll have a talk with papa about some love letters that I found."
