Phoenix Duchess - C5
The man frowned slightly. Patrol?
Dong Ling Wan blinked. She was wearing a peacock plumes mask, and her eyes were extremely clear, which made her feel quite curious. Patrol Officer also had a pair of peach blossom eyes, because just a moment ago, she thought that it was a tour to come. After staring at it for a long time, the mask covered half of his face, revealing only his thin lips and sharp chin.
Qing Yu pushed the man away, causing her to frown. She stretched out her hand, but didn’t stop him. He protected her like a little child under the rain. “Where did this lecher come from? How dare he …”
“Tingyu!” There was a hint of seriousness in her voice. Hearing the man’s words, Tingyu glared at him unwillingly, then pouted as she walked back behind Eastern Ling Wan. Dong Ling Wan lowered her head slightly, then smiled faintly as she stepped forward and bowed. “This little girl doesn’t understand the rules, please do not blame me, young master. I was rude just now.”
“Meeting each other is fate, how can you be rude?”
“Shameless!” Hearing his frivolous words, Yu Rui’s anger that had not yet subsided began to rise. Even Bounty Snow frowned.
“We will meet again sooner or later due to fate, Miss and I are fated people. “Young miss, I’ll be taking my leave.” After the man finished speaking, he cupped his hands together and left.
Tingyu spat and cursed again. She turned around to see Dong Ling Wan lost in thought. She shook her body worriedly. “Miss?”
“Nothing.” Dong Ling Wan shook her head, looking at that person’s back as if deep in thought. “I don’t know why, but I keep having the feeling that that person is someone I’ve known before.”
Although he almost fell down, the lanterns were still there. The street was filled with people. The three of them continued walking with lanterns in their hands. It was just that at this moment, Dong Ling Wan had long since lost her interest. Even walking was a bit absent-minded.
The lanterns in her hands were kicked off. Eastern Ling Wan suddenly regained her senses. At some point, there was a commotion in the crowd, and someone seemed to be screaming something. Before she could see clearly, she was hit by the crowd and almost fell to the ground. After stabilizing herself, Eastern Ling Wan heaved a sigh of relief. Her luck wasn’t too good, and she happened to be on the bridge. The bridge was not narrow, but people were all squeezed together. People wouldn’t pay attention to what was under their feet when they were panicking. If she fell down now, she would most likely lose her life and go home.
She turned around to look for Snowy and Tingyu, only to find that she was no longer by her side. Far away, Eastern Ling Wan could still see Snowy, and she seemed to be trying her best to get closer to her, but she was too weak and was pushed further away by the crowd. “Miss, follow the crowd!”
Dong Ling Wan couldn’t do anything, she could only listen to what she said and continue forward, stumbling along the way until she couldn’t keep up with the pace of the crowd. Just as she was about to fall, she was picked up by someone and dragged into the alley.
“It’s you.” There wasn’t much surprise in his words, and he didn’t seem to feel much joy from being reborn from his tribulation.
“Miss, we really are fated.”
Dong Ling Wan looked at him, and smiled, and asked rather casually: “This matter of fate, can be decided, can be decided. From Young Noble’s point of view, which kind of fate would you and I have? ”
That person smiled, “Of course.”
“Then that’s unfortunate. I only believe in winning against the heavens.” Dong Ling Wan raised her eyebrows, and stared unblinkingly into the eyes of the person in front of her, not allowing her to avoid him in the slightest. Her tone was relaxed, as if she was chatting with someone. However, while she was carefully savoring the information, it also seemed to have a deeper meaning to it.
The man raised his eyebrows as well. “Regardless of nature, people are destined for fate.”
“Send a message to the young master. Sick comes from the mouth, evil comes from the mouth.”
The man’s gaze turned deep as an exquisite dagger appeared in his hand. The tip of the blade was placed against Eastern Ling Wan’s throat, and the man slowly approached her: “The moon is dark and the winds are strong. There’s no one around, so shouldn’t something happen?”
The woman raised her head and looked into the eyes of the person before her. She had a calm expression on her face even though she had been stabbed in the throat with a knife. The cold moonlight shone into her full, juicy eyes, making her look watery and alluring. She slightly pursed her lips: “You won’t kill me. But let me also tell you, no one can live freely after offending me. I don’t care who you are, or who is behind you, if you dare to touch even a hair on my head tonight, I have my own ways to prevent you from stepping out of this city. ”
The man’s interest was piqued, and the dagger disappeared with a twist of his finger. She smiled, as if the person who had threatened her with a knife was not him. She nodded slightly, her cool voice pleasant to the ears, “My apologies, Miss. Please forgive me.”
“Sure.” The night wind blew into the alleyway, the woman’s faint voice was distant and clear, gently stirring people’s heartstrings, “I don’t want to know who you are, and I don’t care what you want to do after arriving in this city, remember, don’t come provoke me.”
The man raised an eyebrow as he watched the woman’s figure disappear into the alleyway. Today, he had been warned by a woman.
The man was dressed in black, and in the darkness, he appeared rather deep. His eyebrows were sharp, and his lips were thin, and the bridge of his nose was pointed. His peach blossom eyes were calm and without ripples, and his perfect, fairy-like face gave off a sharp edge to his clearly defined face.
A man in white came out from the corner. His words contained a hint of playfulness as he gave a pertinent evaluation, “Arrogant.”
The man in black shook his head, “Not everyone has the right to be arrogant.” Unfortunately, this woman was one of those who had the capital.
“What’s the situation?” The man in black lifted his eyelids slightly.
“They were all poisoned.” The meaning behind his words was that no one was left alive. The white clothed man helplessly and ridiculously sighed, “If you weren’t so willful and insisted on coming here earlier, you wouldn’t have been targeted. “He came with great effort and only got a scolding.” At the end, his tone was somewhat mocking.
“Whoever wants to kill me, no matter where I go, they will never let me go.” The black robed man’s gaze turned cold, before he frowned. “Has the news been leaked?”
“Are you worried about yourself, or about her?”
“For the time being, I can’t reveal that thing.”
That thing? The man in white heard him talk about it again, but he had never heard him talk about what it was before. The man in white gently waved his hand, “Don’t you worry about me? Even if we don’t keep any survivors, don’t even think about escaping from my hands. ”
“It’s getting late. Let’s go back tomorrow.”
At the mouth of the alleyway, there was an old tree. The tree was leaning against the wall, and half of its body was hidden by the wall. The cold wind brushed against the branches of the old tree, causing them to clack against each other. The man in black retracted his previous expression, his gaze focused on the alleyway’s entrance. Eastern Ling Wan, we will meet again very soon.
After leaving the alleyway, Dong Ling Wan’er went back the way she came. Seeing that the street was empty, she thought about what had happened just now, and felt that it was extremely strange. He couldn’t help but recall the man in the mask. He had always felt that he had seen him somewhere before, but he also felt that this person was truly dangerous. It seemed that he was specially born to take away the most precious things of others …
When the two saw that she had returned, they pulled at her and kept questioning her. Dong Ling Wan had a headache as she waved for everyone to leave before she returned to her room. The small kitchen brought her some supper, and Dong Ling Wan’s mood dropped, but she wasn’t too interested in eating. It was a good Flower God’s Day, and he had somehow become like this!
“Eh, what’s on Miss’s shoes?”
Hearing her words, Eastern Ling Wan didn’t think so, although she didn’t want to speak, she still snorted, her tone was a little tired, “What can it be? They must have splashed mud on the river as they crossed it. ”
“No …” Miss, it’s … It’s blood! ”
Dong Ling Wan who was reclining on the couch suddenly opened her eyes …
