Yu Tanqi suddenly woke up.
She looked at the quiet bridal chamber, feeling a little uneasy in her heart, "Linlang, how long has Zi'an been gone?"
Linlang: "The prince has been gone for two quarters of an hour."
"Why hasn't he come back yet? Didn't he say he'd just have a few drinks?"
"Perhaps the guests' hospitality is too great to refuse, and the prince is unable to escape for the time being."
"Send someone to the front to check."
"yes."
Yu Tanqi felt inexplicably anxious and got out of bed.
However, she did not wait for the maid who went to the front to come back, but instead waited for an uninvited guest.
When there was a knock on the door, she thought it was Jiang Shi or the maid coming back, but when Taohua went to open the door, she saw a young man wearing half a mask.
"Who are you?"
The young man had a malicious smile on his face: "I am here to take your lives."
"What did you say? Um..." Taohua was grabbed by someone with her mouth covered.
Hearing the noise, Yu Tanqi quickly stood up, picked up a gold hairpin on the table and hid it in his wide cuffs, looking at the door vigilantly.
Linlang quickly stood in front of Yu Tanqi. Although her body was shaking with nervousness, she took off a silver hairpin from her head and hid it in her sleeve.
Cheng Su had Tao Hua taken away and looked nonchalantly at the bride in the bridal chamber.
At this time, the bride took off the gorgeous and heavy phoenix crown, and her three thousand black hair fell on her shoulders. Her face was white, her lips were red, her eyebrows and eyes were beautiful, and she was breathtakingly beautiful.
Even Cheng Su, who didn't care about appearance, couldn't help but be stunned at this moment.
"What a beautiful bride." he exclaimed.
Seeing Cheng Su's iconic half mask, Yu Tanqi's heart sank, knowing that Yun Xuan had indeed launched an attack in advance.
She pursed her lips and asked the question that concerned her most: "Where is Jiang Shi?"
Cheng Su laughed and said nonchalantly, "He might be dead."
Yu Tanqi's eyes turned cold, and she suddenly appeared in front of Cheng Su, holding the hairpin in her hand against his neck, and whispered: "Tell me again, what happened to him?"
In the past two years, under Jiang Shi's training, Yu Tanqi not only learned how to use a spear, but also learned some light skills.
Although he couldn't yet float on water with his light Kung Fu skills, he was still able to threaten Cheng Su, who didn't know any martial arts, at close range.
"Do you know martial arts?" Cheng Su looked at the girl who suddenly appeared in front of him in surprise, not caring about the golden hairpin against his neck.
In his eyes, Yu Tanqi was just a clever and witty young lady. Even though she knew some martial arts, she was still weak.
He said casually, "I said he was dead. What? Do you dare to kill me?"
"You're looking for death." The sharp shaft of the golden hairpin had pierced the boy's fair skin, and bright red blood flowed out.
Yu Tanqi's hand holding the golden hairpin remained motionless, her expression was cold, without a trace of the fragility of a young girl.
Cheng Su was a little surprised again. He didn't expect that she would actually dare to hurt him.
However, he remained undaunted and instead laughed even more wildly.
"Even if you kill me, you won't survive. My insects won't be afraid of you anymore."
He was playing with the delicate and small clear jade bottle in his hand. If you didn't know, you would think it was filled with some beautiful beads.
Yu Tanqi knew that what was contained in it was an extremely poisonous insect.
When Yu Tanqi thought about this kind of insect burrowing into human flesh, he got goosebumps all over his body and subconsciously wanted to slap the jade bottle out of his hand.
Cheng Su was quick to grab her slender white wrist and wanted to bend it hard, but when he touched the girl's soft skin, he paused and she found an opportunity to pull her hand away.
"Disgusting." She glared at him, her clear and bright eyes against the backdrop of her red wedding dress, so angry that they seemed to be burning.
Cheng Su was slightly distracted, and suddenly felt a pain in his knee. While inhaling, he subconsciously knelt on the ground. His arm was hit again, and the jade bottle in his hand was snatched away.
"You're an adult, why play with something else but these disgusting bugs?"
Yu Tanqi suppressed his nausea and fear, tightly gripped the jade bottle in his hand, and coldly looked at the hunched Cheng Su, "If I open this bottle and throw the bug at you, will it burrow into your flesh?"
Cheng Su gritted his teeth and looked up at her. The half of her face outside the mask was as fair and delicate as an ordinary handsome boy, and her smile was surprisingly pure and beautiful.
"You can try."
Of course, Yu Tanqi would not be foolish enough to try it. With the reference of the original work, she knew that the insects refined by Cheng Su would recognize their master and obey his orders. They were terrifying.
She couldn't throw away the jade bottle in her hand for the time being. She was in a bad mood and suddenly saw half of the mask on Cheng Su's face.
"Why do you always wear half a mask? Is it because that half of your face is disfigured and too ugly, and you don't dare let others see it?"
Yu Tanqi knew that he would not die at the hands of Cheng Su, so he began to provoke and anger him unscrupulously.
Jiang Shi is the male lead, so it’s not easy for him to get into trouble.
Yun Xuan asked Cheng Su to capture her in order to threaten Jiang Shi.
But she is not Dafu and Xiaomi, so it is not so easy for them to catch her.
Even if they were caught in the end, she would not be in a good mood and would not make them feel good.
In the original novel, the reason why Cheng Su wore a mask covering half of his face was because when he was young, he was too ferocious in refining insects, and his whole body was festered by the poison. In the end, only the toxins on this half of his face could not be discharged. His face was festered and looked hideous, like an evil ghost. He felt disgusted when he saw it, so he wore a mask to cover half of his face.
Everyone cares about their face, and Cheng Su is no exception.
Whenever someone asks him why he wears a mask, he changes his expression, bears a grudge and then takes revenge.
Cheng Su's expression changed as expected, and he looked at her sinisterly.
"Yeah, it's too ugly, that's why I wear a mask."
He gritted his teeth, as if he would explode at any moment.
Yu Tanqi knew that her provocative words and actions were dangerous, but so what? Don't expect a bride whose wedding day was ruined to be rational. She was very calm by not beating Cheng Su up.
Cheng Su slowly straightened up, feeling the girl's naked disgust and ridicule. He reached out and touched the protruding half of the mask on his face, a hint of disgust flashing in his eyes.
He subconsciously turned sideways and faced her with the half of his face that was intact.
If someone who didn't know the situation saw him like this, they would think he was a proud and beautiful young man.
But Yu Tanqi was often seduced by Jiang Shi's beauty, and had long developed a certain resistance to male beauty. Except for Jiang Shi, other people's faces were ordinary and not attractive in her eyes.
She looked at Cheng Su expressionlessly, "Aren't you going to take me away? Let's go."
Cheng Su was stunned. "You are willing to go with me?"
Yu Tanqi sneered: "Yun Xuan asked you to arrest me, isn't it just to threaten Jiang Shi?"
Cheng Su put down his hand that was touching the mask and looked at her with complicated eyes, "Then why are you willing to come with me?"
"Because even if I die, I want to see Jiang Shi."
