Poisonous Consort: Prince, Don’t Flirt - Chapter 186
“Elder sister!”
Bai Shao’s sharp eyes looked at the corner of the skirt that had disappeared.
Just now, someone purposely blocked her path to bring her sister away! Even though he could not see who it was!
Ignoring the subdued assassin and the black shadow behind Ji Huai, he leaped out.
“Ji Huai, be careful.” The two black-clothed men behind him did not know if they were friends or foe. Furthermore, they could not let this group of black-clothed men follow Bai Shao.
Bai Shao was so anxious that his face was flushed red. After turning two corners, he staggered a few steps and looked with disbelief at the corpses that were scattered all over the place, as well as the few young masters hiding in the corners.
Gu Mingyan, on the other hand, was crying uncontrollably in someone’s arms.
The dark clouds dissipated, and the silvery moonlight fell on the golden phoenix feathers on the man’s collar, shining brightly.
His blade-like face did not dissipate his killing intent. His pair of long and narrow eyes were only half-opened, but they suddenly gave off a feeling of dread. The longblade in his hand dripped with dark red blood, and his other hand was clasped on the side of the person’s waist.
When they saw that Bai Shao was chasing after them, their killing intent surged. The tip of their blades trembled, but after they clearly saw his face, all of their killing intent dissipated without a trace.
The valiant looking woman behind him took off her veil, bent down, and picked up a jade bottle from the ground.
“These people want to dazzle the big miss. The ship that they left is ready.”
Shuang Hua’s voice was soft, and the few young masters in the corner did not even cry out when they saw the corpse in front of them, yet when Shuang Hua swept his eyes over them, they did not even dare to tremble. Only Shuang Hua himself threw the jade bottle down.
Upon closer inspection, Shuang Hua’s hands were stained with blood.
Bai Shao stood in place and swallowed his saliva, seeing that Gu Mingyan was fine, he opened his mouth: “Just now, someone wanted to make a move against Ji Huai.”
“Send them back to Lord Ji’s estate.” Holding the person in his embrace tighter, Xiao Qiran added: “All of you have done well, in a bit, I will also send her to my house, don’t waste this opportunity to settle accounts with the Minister.”
With that, Xiao Qiran turned and left with the people who were still muttering in his arms.
Shuang Hua called for people to come and take care of the corpses, then wiped his hands and walked over to Bai Shao’s side: “We have already sent people to take care of the assassins behind Miss Ji Huai, and all of these ghosts were trying to scare you all, so that we could let Miss take the opportunity to throw herself into her arms. The assassins behind Miss Ji Huai saw this, and took the opportunity to do so.”
“Elder sister, she …”
“His Highness has always been very good to Eldest Miss, there’s no need to worry.” Shuang Hua smiled lightly and brought him back to Ji Huai’s side.
However, Ji Huai looked at the assassin who was twitching on the ground with a gloomy face.
Today, she had already been threatened twice, but she was only her father’s daughter and did not matter.
Shuang Hua bent down to check on his breath, and shook his head: “I will send the young masters and mistresses back to the Ji Residence, and will tell Master Yu about today’s events, does young miss mind?”
“I don’t mind, thank you Master Shuang Hua for accompanying us. And Sister Gu … ”
“His Highness is accompanying her.”
Shuang Hua could not help but have a whole new level of respect for the three of them. As they travelled, even she could not help but exclaim that the three of them had their own unique characteristics, only that they were still cautious at such a young age. In the future, the three of them would definitely be dragons among men.
And at the entrance of an alleyway where no one was around, Gu Mingyan had even cried more than half of Xiao Qiran’s clothes.
“Those are just fakes …”
“They disappeared into the wall. It’s impossible for martial arts to do that.”
“It’s just a bit of a blind trick …”
“I did! There must be something dirty! ”
Gu Mingyan did not let go of Xiao Qiran’s arm and buried his head into’s shoulder.
It was different from before, when he had only felt a gaze. This time, Gu Mingyan truly felt something sweep across his face! How could she believe that this was all a trick!
He had long since lost his mind.
Xiao Qiran, however, remembered the first time she went to Seventh Prince’s residence, and couldn’t help but raise the corner of his lips. He caressed her back soothingly, but didn’t let go of the hand that was supporting her waist: “Everything’s alright …”
“There must be something!”
“All the dirty things have been chased away by Shuang Hua.” Xiao Qiran raised his hand and gently pressed on the back of her head. He turned his face to look at his subordinates pulling the few young masters away, and his eyes became colder: “It’s fine now …”
Gu Mingyan lowered his head even more. “The smell of blood.”
“Just a few assassins.”
Xiao Qiran said in a casual manner, as his fingertips landed on the back of her neck and gently massaged it.
She seemed particularly afraid of ghosts.
This time, it was completely a despicable action by a few noble young masters that they wanted to do on their own, but they were mysteriously taken advantage of by the assassin who tried to assassinate Ji Huai. However, he had long since dealt with the people beside Ji Huai without making a sound, and did not expect that this group of people would think to attack from the east.
First, they sent people to kill Gu Mingyan to let the children relax their vigilance, and then they assassinate him.
Gu Mingyan took a few deep breaths before calming himself down. Carrying her, he leaned against the wall and chuckled: “Today, you always encounter danger.”
“I shouldn’t have met those ghosts!” Gu Mingyan raised his head in anger: “What are you laughing for!”
“That was just a trick, but you were crying and gasping in my arms.” Xiao Qiran laughed and ruffled her hair. Seeing that she still wanted to leave, he held her even more tightly, the smile on his face became even stronger: “Other than the part where you usually pretend to be strong, now you are just a little girl who can only cry, crying like a little kitten.”
“You’re the girl!”
Gu Mingyan ruthlessly kicked him, yet Xiao Qiran could only grunt and grip her even more tightly: “Since you are not a little girl, then I believe that you can return to your residence all by yourself later on … Or should I go to Lord Ji’s residence? ”
“Don’t!” Gu Mingyan tightly clenched him, “Can I go back with you …”
“You promised Ji Huai.”
“That was before I met a ghost!” Gu Mingyan even pulled Xiao Qiran’s belt.
She looked more and more like an unreasonable little girl.
Xiao Qiran could only bow her head slightly in response to Gu Mingyan’s movements, and gently touched her two soft lips as she said in a low voice, “I’ll send you there.”
By the time Wei Bai and Shuang Hua finished their business and returned, the two of them had already disappeared.
And at the entrance of the Ji Residence, Gu Mingyan stood on the stairs to prove his identity to the guards.
“Please come in, Eldest Miss.” The two guards opened a path when they saw Linglong, who was at her waist.
Gu Mingyan heaved a sigh of relief, but when he entered, he stopped in his tracks and glanced at the man hidden in the shadows.
Xiao Qiran was standing there with his back against the wall, with possibly a lot of dried blood stains on the side of his legs.
He suddenly came back to his senses and walked back to his room. However, he unconsciously lifted his finger and pressed it to his lips.
That kiss was not a good time.
But that was a feeling of safety that he had never experienced before.
