Chapter 91 He actually caressed her calf.
The old doctor choked for a moment, "Both of them are wearing veils, I can't see their faces clearly."
Pei Yuan's face darkened.
The old doctor was so frightened that he quickly said, "I remember her eyes, they were so bright, like the stars in the sky."
“Draw it and let me see.”
The old doctor took out his brush and ink and began to draw while leaning over the counter.
There was nothing we could do; the table had been smashed.
A moment later, he nervously handed it to Pei Yuan, "My lord, it's finished."
Pei Yuan glanced at it, his face darkening further.
"These are the eyes you described, as bright as stars?"
Sun Yan looked up and saw two large circles drawn on the paper, with a round black dot inside each circle.
*Pfft*
He couldn't help but laugh.
Pei Yuan glanced at him coldly, "It's very funny."
Sun Yan immediately stood up straight and asked the old doctor, "Can you think again if there are any other characteristics?"
The old doctor scratched his head. "Oh right, she's incredibly strong. She smashed my table with one punch."
Pei Yuan's gaze fell on the broken pieces of wood on the ground.
Is she a very strong woman or a skilled martial artist?
Shen Chu was very strong. At Jingguo Temple, he witnessed Shen Chu kill the guards around his stepmother, carrying the guards in his left hand and the maid in his right, and throwing them into his stepmother's room.
Pei Yuan frowned slightly. What was wrong with him? Why did he think of Shen Chu?
This is utterly baffling!
He crumpled the paper up and threw it away, instructing the old doctor, "If you see her again, immediately send someone to report to the Flying Eagle Guard."
"Yes, yes!" the old doctor replied repeatedly, only realizing what had happened after everyone had left.
My God, the Flying Eagle Guard!
Is the Flying Eagle Guard under the Sixth Prince's command?
Could the person who just came be...?
The old doctor's legs went weak, and he collapsed to the ground. His trembling hands touched the head twice before he could confirm that it was still pressed against his neck.
OMG.
He dared not sell fake medicine again; even the Sixth Prince had his eye on him.
Let's try our best to educate this spendthrift son.
After leaving the clinic, Pei Yuan instructed Sun Yan, "Go to Jingguo Temple and inquire whether any ordinary people went there on the day the Empress Dowager worshipped Buddha."
"Yes." Sun Yan nodded. "Your Highness, should we still question the noble family members who went to Jingguo Temple that day?"
Pei Yuan was somewhat irritated.
A month has passed, and the woman from that night has vanished without a trace, leaving no useful information.
I finally met someone who looked similar today, but I lost them again.
"Your Highness, it is Lord Shen."
Pei Yuan turned his head to look over.
A carriage was parked under the tall archway ahead, and Shen Chu's maid, dressed in men's clothing, was playing with a riding whip.
He narrowed his eyes slightly. What was Chen Chu doing in the south of the city?
Have your injuries healed?
He walked over, waving his jade-bone fan, and asked, "Where are your parents?"
Hongxiu was so frightened that she fell off the carriage frame with a thud and hit her head on the ground.
"Sixth...Sixth Prince."
Pei Yuan hummed in agreement, "There's no need for such a grand gesture. Please rise."
Hongxiu rubbed her knees and grimaced.
I really didn't mean to perform such a grand gesture; I was just startled by your sudden appearance from behind.
Her young master had just gotten into the carriage; he hadn't even changed his clothes yet.
"Are your adults in the carriage?"
Seeing that Hongxiu did not answer, Pei Yuan went forward to lift the carriage curtain.
Hongxiu was terrified and quickly reached out to hold the front of the carriage, "Your Highness...Your Highness, you mustn't!"
Pei Yuan frowned. "Why not? Shen Chu isn't here?"
Hongxiu opened her mouth, quickly trying to come up with a reasonable excuse.
Unfortunately, her mind only works freely when she's faced with food; now, the more nervous she gets, the more her brain seems to go blank, and her mouth involuntarily blurts out:
"My young master is changing his clothes inside."
As soon as the words left her mouth, Hongxiu wanted to slap herself.
What nonsense are you talking about?
What if the Sixth Prince thinks that since everyone is a man, there's nothing to hide about changing clothes, and just barges in? Wouldn't the young master be exposed?
Good heavens, the sixth prince's hand has already touched the carriage curtain.
Hongxiu was so anxious that her forehead was almost sweating, but Pei Yuan looked at her with a suspicious expression.
Why would he change clothes in a carriage? Did he do something shameful?
He said he would take a step forward and pull back the carriage curtain.
Shen Chu, who was frantically wrapping her breast wrap inside the carriage, was so anxious that her hands were trembling.
If Pei Yuan were to barge in now, she would be dead.
Thinking quickly, she said suggestively, "I just worked up a sweat, so I should change my clothes."
"We're all men, surely Your Highness can guess what we've done?"
Pei Yuan paused, his hand gripping the carriage curtain, understanding Shen Chu's implication, a flash of deep anger crossing his eyes.
He was flogged yesterday, and today he's bringing his maid to cause trouble in the south of the city.
It seems he wasn't hit too hard.
He reluctantly withdrew his hand.
Chen Chu heard no movement and breathed a long sigh of relief. She quickly wrapped her arms around her chest, but then she heard Hongxiu outside ask, "Isn't Your Highness going in to take a look?"
She nearly fell headfirst into the carriage.
Hongxiu, what nonsense are you talking about?
"What's so interesting about a man changing clothes?" Pei Yuan's cold snort rang out from outside.
Chen Chu breathed a sigh of relief, quickly put on her outer garment, tied her hair, and carefully put the clothes she had changed out of into her bundle.
Swish.
She pulled back the carriage curtain and glared at Pei Yuan with annoyance.
"Does that mean if a woman is changing clothes in the carriage, Your Highness will be eager to barge in?"
Pei Yuan was taken aback by her sudden outburst of anger. He narrowed his eyes and looked her up and down, then sneered, "What are you being so sour about? Do you want me to watch you change your clothes?"
"You're talking nonsense, I didn't."
"Then what are you being so sour about?"
Shen Chu opened her mouth, but suddenly found herself speechless.
That morning, she first learned that she was pregnant, then almost got tricked by the old doctor into buying pregnancy-preserving medicine, and later was chased by Pei Yuan for several blocks.
At this moment, he was exhausted and felt a surge of anger when he saw Pei Yuan, the culprit.
"Your Highness is mistaken. What do I have to be so sour about?"
Pei Yuan raised an eyebrow slightly. "Are you angry?"
Shen Chu turned her head away, not wanting to talk to him.
Pei Yuan sized her up for a moment with his hands behind his back, then stepped into the carriage.
Shen Chu was startled by his sudden action. "What are you doing?"
Pei Yuan sat down directly next to her. "Didn't you want me to come in?"
Chen Chu was furious. "When did I ever ask you to come in?"
Pei Yuan crossed his arms and chuckled, "Just now, your tone was obviously sarcastic. As a considerate prince, I naturally came in immediately."
Well, the topic has circled back to sourness again.
Shen Chu glared at him, then sat down opposite him and turned to look out of the car.
The way she pursed her lips and put on a sullen face was like a child throwing a tantrum, instantly dispelling Pei Yuan's previous annoyance.
"Let's catch the train back to the north of the city."
Shen Chu frowned. “If Your Highness wants to return to the north of the city, you can take your own carriage. My carriage is old and small, so I won’t make you feel uncomfortable.”
"This prince is willing to endure the hardship and drive the carriage."
"Don't rush to catch the train."
The two people and their four eyes all looked at Hongxiu at the same time.
Hongxiu glanced at Chen Chu, then at Pei Yuan.
Hmm, it seems that the Sixth Prince's gaze is more lethal.
She slammed the carriage curtain shut and decisively cracked her whip.
Pei Yuan's low, smug laughter rang out from the other side.
Shen Chu was so angry that her eyes inexplicably turned red.
"You cried because you were angry? Hmm?"
Shen Chu pursed her lips and remained silent.
Pei Yuan's knees swayed slightly as he gently touched her leg, asking helplessly, "Are you really angry?"
A warm sensation came from her knee, and Shen Chu was so startled that she almost jumped up.
That damned Pei Yuan, he... he actually rubbed his knee against her calf!
