Chapter 329: Hidden Arrow
"But whatever, we're just partners for now. As long as he doesn't try to do things he shouldn't, let him be."
As for what happens if the relationship breaks down in the future...
She chuckled lightly, seemingly mockingly: "Let's discuss it further."
Yuan Siyin and Si Yuzhu boarded the carriage, but halfway there, a sharp blade came from the shadows, slicing through the curtain and embedding itself in the inner wall of the carriage, only an inch away from Si Yuzhu.
If Yuan Siyin hadn't noticed something was wrong and pulled her back in time, she would probably have been seriously injured.
The carriage came to a sudden stop. After Si Yuzhu came to her senses, her face turned deathly pale. She clutched her chest and couldn't even breathe. "Is it...is it the Crown Prince's man?"
"have no idea."
Yuan Siyin pulled out the sharp blade and examined it carefully. It was of ordinary style and had no special markings. Just by looking at it, she couldn't figure out anything.
She comforted Si Yuzhu with a few words, then suddenly lifted the curtain, her brows furrowed, and warily surveyed her surroundings.
Logically speaking, if it were truly a sneak attack, there would be no reason to target Si Yuzhu, and the location is also incorrect.
With cars and people thronging the bustling streets, it was really difficult to make a move in such a blatantly obvious place.
If the other party really wanted to kill her, they could have done so in the countryside, when the carriage was traveling through a desolate wilderness. Afterwards, they could have easily burned her body to ashes. Why not?
As Yuan Siyin had expected, the person who threw the hidden weapon not only did not escape, but stood openly at the street corner, holding an identical short blade in his hand, seemingly intending to throw another blade if the first one missed.
Upon seeing that Yuan Siyin had discovered him, the man sheathed his short blade and turned to leave.
Yuan Siyin couldn't help but let out a cold laugh.
Damn it, if I see you, you don't even have to run. Just stand there and wait for me to catch up with you, and I'll kick your soul away!
Seeing Yuan Siyin get up as if to get off the carriage, Si Yuzhu immediately called out to her, still in shock, "Don't go, it's too dangerous."
"Don't worry, cousin. The person they're looking for is me. You're just a victim of this."
With that, she jumped off the carriage, glanced at the driver, and said, "Please take Miss Biao back to the Yuan residence first, and then inform the eldest young master about this matter."
The driver hesitated for a moment: "Miss, you..."
If you're going to rely on this dawdling, you'll have to yell at that person, "Slow down, I'm losing you!"
Yuan Siyin didn't speak, but sighed, quickly drew a golden whip from her waist, and lashed it at the horse's rump. In the blink of an eye, before the coachman could hesitate, the horse neighed and galloped away.
Li Ying stared at her in disbelief, then at the carriage speeding away. "This...this..."
Yuan Siyin retracted her golden whip, her expression amused: "I forgot to let you sit on it, what are you standing there for? Hurry up and chase after them."
Li Ying responded blankly, lifted her skirt and ran after them. Only then did she realize that Yuan Siyin was long gone. She was about to say "Miss, be careful" when she looked back.
She stamped her foot and had no choice but to continue chasing the carriage.
Mi Shuang immediately lowered her head and replied, "I understand."
"How is things going on Yu Yuanchao's side?"
When he was mentioned, Mi Shuang immediately showed her undisguised contempt: "The person who was watching said that he had left, but he didn't take the woman with him."
You didn't take it with you?
"No, that maid was really pitiful. According to our informants, no sooner had Yu Yuanchao left than she couldn't bear the humiliation and threw herself into a well."
"The Wang family didn't react at all when their own maid threw herself into the well. It seems they are not surprised by what the Crown Prince did."
