Chapter 103: Walking into a Trap
The bed has been made and you can sleep anytime you want.
Luo Qinghan went to see Xiao Xixi and saw that she was still drying her hair. Seeing how slowly she was drying, it seemed unclear how long it would take her to dry her hair.
He said angrily, "Since you knew you had to wash your hair, why didn't you do it earlier?"
Xiao Xixi thought, there is only one bathtub in the room, and you don't allow me to take a bath outside, so I can only let you take a bath first and then I can. You are a troublemaker, and it takes a long time to take a bath. When it is my turn, it is already too late. How can you let me take a bath earlier?
She graciously admitted her mistake: "I will definitely correct it next time."
Luo Qinghan sat on the bed and sulked for a while.
After everyone had left, he gradually calmed down and felt that it was unreasonable for him to be so angry, so he said.
"We can bathe at the same time later."
Xiao Xixi was so frightened that her handkerchief fell to the ground.
Has His Royal Highness finally been unable to resist and decided to take action against this little salted fish of hers? !
Then she heard the prince say.
"We can put a screen in the middle, and we can each have a bathtub with the screen between us. This will save time."
Xiao Xixi felt relieved, it turned out that she had thought the prince was too beastly.
She once again spit on herself in her heart——
My heart is so dirty!
Luo Qinghan didn't get a response from her, and was a little dissatisfied: "Why don't you speak? Are you unwilling?"
Xiao Xixi hurriedly said, "I am willing! Your Highness is so considerate of me, I am deeply touched!"
Luo Qinghan was satisfied.
He lay down on the bed, and Eunuch Chang tucked in the quilt for him and left the bedroom. Before leaving, he did not forget to extinguish the candle in the outer room, leaving them only an oil lamp on the bedside.
Xiao Xixi wiped her hair for a long time, yawning one after another.
Just when she was about to fall asleep while brushing her hair, she suddenly heard some unusual noise.
She paused and turned to look towards the door.
Almost at the same time, Luo Qinghan, who had originally closed his eyes, also opened his eyes.
Xiao Xixi put down the handkerchief, stood up and walked towards the door.
Luo Qinghan called out to her.
"Don't move."
Xiao Xixi looked at him in confusion. He knew there was some noise outside, but he didn't go out to check it out. Was he waiting to be beaten up?
But the prince looked calm, as if he had expected this.
He whispered, "Let them in so we can catch them red-handed."
Xiao Xixi suddenly realized.
This is a trap!
There was a very slight sound coming from outside the door.
Xiao Xixi looked closely and saw a knife blade sticking out from the crack of the door, fiddling with the bolt bit by bit.
She stepped back to the bed and got under the covers.
Luo Qinghan put his arm around her waist and whispered in her ear.
"If a fight breaks out, stay away so you don't get hurt by mistake."
Xiao Xixi nodded, indicating that she understood.
With a slight click, the bolt was opened.
The door was pushed open silently from the outside.
Four men in black slipped in one after another.
They should all be martial artists. They walked without making any sound, and their figures were hidden in the darkness, making it difficult to see them clearly. Only the blades in their hands were shining with a faint cold light.
When they walked to the bed and raised the knife towards the prince.
Luo Qinghan, who was originally sleeping with his eyes closed, suddenly opened his eyes, hugged Xiao Xixi and rolled on the ground, avoiding the chopping blade.
When the assassins saw that their attack missed, they immediately chased after him with knives in hand.
Luo Qinghan pulled out the dagger hidden under his pillow and started fighting with the assassins. There was a crisp sound when the weapons collided.
