"...Your Highness, what should Ji Cheng do?"
Guard Shi Qiang had been waiting at the gate of the mansion since early morning, waiting for Ye Zerui to bring Su Muxi over.
Unexpectedly, the wait lasted a whole day.
However, only Ye Zerui arrived.
He had been by the Second Prince's side for many years, and Ji Cheng had always taken good care of him, even saving his life several times. Therefore, Ji Cheng was like an older brother to him.

Shi Qiang tightened his grip on the knife, said nothing, and plunged the knife into Ji Cheng's abdomen.
The moment he drew his sword, hot blood splattered onto his body, but his body felt as if it had fallen into an ice cave, chilled to the bone.
