Chapter 131 The Lame Princess vs. the Blind Hostage Prince Consort (8)
Nanyue Pavilion, at the corner of the stairs outside the private room.
The drunken businesswoman, staggering, held an open purse filled with silver ingots and sneered:
"Don't tell me you're just selling your art and not your body, isn't it just to raise your price?!"
"Now come with me into the room. Besides these, the banknotes in my arms are all yours!"
The man in red who was stopped by her was wearing a black veil, revealing only a pair of narrow peach blossom eyes.
At the corners of the eyes on both sides, a gorgeous crabapple flower was painted with red gauze, making her look like a charming and alluring fox demon.
The pale amber pupils were filled with murderous intent.
Xun Ji's hand, hidden in his sleeve, was about to circulate his internal energy when he caught sight of someone coming out of the private room and turned to lightly grab his collar.
The trembling voice seemed to be afraid and angry:
"Please don't humiliate Haitang!"
He looked around a little panicky, and when his sight fell on the person in the wheelchair, a clear watery color appeared in his eyes, revealing a pleading - save me.
Seeing the helpless man in red trapped in the corner, Lu Cha smiled with his eyes shining brightly.
Sure enough, the little villain is pretending to be blind~
"Lingying, bring the person over here."
"Who dares to snatch it from me?" the businesswoman shouted angrily, turning around and spitting in disdain.
"Pah! He's a cripple!"
"You can't even move your legs, why are you here to join in the fun?"
"ah!"
Boom boom boom—the businesswoman was kicked down the stairs by Lingying.
"How dare you! This is the eldest princess of the dynasty! How dare you offend her?!"
The businesswoman, who had originally stood up and was about to yell curses, quickly knelt down in panic and slapped herself twice:
"I am blind! I didn't recognize His Highness! I deserve to die!"
The noise here also attracted the attention of everyone in the hall.
Immediately, a large group of people knelt down, all with fear on their faces.
Lu Cha couldn't help but touch his face and muttered softly: "Am I scary?"
"No." Luo Jinshuang, who had almost figured out her personality, answered honestly:
"But if any child doesn't behave, they will use you to scare him."
"The eldest princess is here to eat people~"
“…”
Lu Cha sighed softly, waved Lingying to comfort the people downstairs, then moved his wheelchair to Xun Ji's side and held out his hand:
"Would you like to have a few drinks with me?"
"It's Haitang's pleasure."
Xun Ji nodded respectfully, but did not hold Lu Cha's hand. Instead, he put his embroidered red sleeve on her fingertips.
The corners of her eyes are slightly curved, showing a charming look, wanting to welcome but also shy.
He portrayed the scheming young man who wanted to curry favor with the eldest princess to gain power to perfection.
If it weren't for the system's reminder, Lu Cha would have found it difficult to connect him with Qingya's poor little proton.
It's like an old lady climbing stairs - you can't deny it.
Luo Jinshuang was also sensible: "Then I will come to see Your Highness another day."
"Yeah."
Lu Cha dismissed the waiters in the private room, grabbed Xun Ji's sleeve, and pulled him to sit at the table:
"Here's the wine."
Xun Ji obediently did as he was told and raised the porcelain cup to Lu Cha's lips.
The voice was deliberately lowered, lingering and charming: "Your Highness, please."
"Didn't anyone teach you to feed mouth to mouth?"
"Haitang is a prostitute, so..." Xun Ji's chin was suddenly clamped by Lu Cha, blocking the rest of his words.
He blinked in confusion, but his fingertips hooked out the dagger from his sleeve.
"What if I force you to serve me?"
Bang--!
Xun Ji quickly grabbed Lu Cha's wrists with one hand and twisted them behind his head.
The wheelchair also leaned back and hit the wall.
Lu Cha's long eyelashes flickered.
What? Are you irritated?
Taking advantage of the fact that Lu Cha didn't know his identity, Xun Ji leaned over and let his black hair fall.
The peach blossom eyes, without disguise, were sinister and dark, filled with sinister malice, but the voice was smiling:
"Your Highness wants Haitang, how can we serve him?"
The cold blade slowly moved across Lu Cha's neck, like a snake's tail ready to strangle its prey.
The little girl said seriously: "Just like now, you are pressing me."
The veins on Xun Ji's forehead twitched slightly.
She really is...
The sudden slight pain on his lips made Xun Ji's mind go blank for a moment.
Lu Cha raised her head and bit his lips through the black gauze.
The skin on the neck was pierced by the tip of the knife when he stood up, and a drop of beautiful blood flowed out.
But she seemed unaware of it, her teeth loosened slightly, biting the black gauze, and then she lay back in the wheelchair.
Almost at the same time when the black veil was pulled off, Xun Ji quickly turned around and jumped out the window, his back looking a little panicked.
Lu Cha adjusted his wheelchair, wiped the blood from his neck with a black gauze, and curled his lips in disgust.
Are you running away now?
The system was dumbfounded: [Are you crazy?! If the villain hadn't aimed the back of the knife at you just now, your neck would have been cut open!]
"No." Lu Cha said meaningfully, "He can't bear to kill me."
Before torturing her to the point of being in excruciating pain, the villain will leave her a breath!
-
By the well in the backyard of Nanyue Pavilion.
Xun Ji kept scooping water to wash his lips, rubbing them hard.
Even though his skin was red, his lips were broken, and he felt a burning pain, he did not stop.
Just to completely get rid of that warm, soft and moist feeling and calm my pounding heart.
Flames burned in the obscure eyes.
What scheme, what rebirth? She is simply shameless! Shameless! Absurd!
When she thought about the six young men before she went in, and she didn't know which one she had kissed, Xun Ji clenched her fists tightly and felt nauseous.
The depressed anger swirling in my chest was rushing around, trying to find an outlet to vent.
Coincidentally, the wooden door of a room was pushed open at this time.
The businesswoman staggered out, a look of satisfaction still lingering on her face, and a lewd smile:
"The people at Nanyue Pavilion are really good at training."
Suddenly, a flash of red caught her eye. Before the businesswoman could look up and see who it was, she was frozen in place by a flash of red.
A cold light flashed by, and blood mist sprayed in the air.
The heart-wrenching pain from the broken bones that surged from her arms made the businesswoman's face turn pale in an instant, and beads of sweat rolled down her forehead.
Unfortunately, she was unable to speak or move, and could only stare at the two bloody hands that fell to the ground with bloodshot eyes.
She just opened the door...
Admiring the businesswoman's frightened and desperate face, Xun Ji slowly wiped the blood-stained dagger clean and smiled with his bright peach blossom eyes.
It’s much more comfortable.
-
The next day.
Princess's Mansion, study.
Lu Cha was carefully flipping through the book in his hand when Lingying hurried in:
"Your Highness, the Emperor was attacked by an assassin on his way back to the palace last night. He was stabbed three times in the back and barely survived."
Knowing that it was Xun Ji who had the secret guard do it and left no evidence, Lu Cha did not care, but heard Lingying say again:
"The Emperor suspects that this matter has something to do with you."
“…”
You are sitting at home and the pot falls from the sky?
"Lingying has already sent a message saying that His Highness was at Nanyue Pavilion last night and did not make any unusual movements."
Lu Cha glanced at Lingying, who was breathing rapidly. "I'll report back when my breathing stabilizes."
"Don't talk or breathe too loudly, it will irritate my heart."
Lingying nodded in agreement:
"Your Highness, the things you bought for the Prince Consort yesterday have now been delivered to the West Garden. He will be able to see them when he wakes up."
Lu Cha looked out the window in confusion.
It's already 11:00 a.m. and the little villain hasn't woken up yet. Could he be dead?
