The Proud Prince and the Arrogant Princess - C391

He calmly placed the porcelain bowl on the bedside, his voice still carrying the childishness of a child. “Who I am is not important.”

Xue Moyun was actually amused by him. She did not know why, but she had a very good impression of him and felt that he would not harm her. At the same time, she let go of his hand and whispered, “What’s more important?”

The boy turned his head and looked out the window. The sunlight landed on the side of his face, and his long and perky eyelashes fell down a circle of shadow on his eye sockets. Suddenly, he reached out his hand to cover Xue Moyun’s mouth, purposely lowering his voice, “Don’t make a sound, there’s someone outside!”

Xue Moyun listened attentively.

There were two men talking outside. It seemed like they were the guards.

“Ai, when will life be like this? I risked my life to kidnap this child, but I still couldn’t kill him. I still have to stay here and guard him.” In my opinion, if things really don’t go well, we can just get rid of him, in case we have to wait on him. ” One seems impatient.

Keep your voice down, we’ve been going from Bei Yan to Yang Shuo, and we’ve experienced all sorts of hardships, and we’ll soon reach the desert. In my opinion, this child’s identity is extraordinary, and if we bring him to the Mo, then there might be a great reward for us.

“That’s easy to say. Also, why is there another woman being held captive? What kind of background does that woman have?”

“We don’t know who he is, but he’s someone we want. As long as we keep an eye out for him, we don’t need to worry about anything else.”

“That’s true. To send her to this grandpa’s room tonight, it will depend on her luck whether she lives or dies.”

Xue Moyun had originally been listening attentively, but when he heard someone talking about him, he immediately became alert.

The ‘master’ they were talking about should be the man on the horse. And tonight, she was going to be gifted to him by this group of people?

The sound outside gradually died down, and the boy let go of Xue Moyun, unceremoniously sitting on the side of the bed.

Xue Moyun got up from the bed and looked at herself carefully. Her clothes were still neatly on her body and she was relieved. She looked at the child beside her with concern.

“You were also imprisoned here?”

The boy swept his eyes across Xue Moyun and coldly replied: “Yes.”

Xue Moyun did not have much curiosity towards the boy’s identity. After all, he had been kidnapped by him for no reason.

Xue Moyun jumped off the bed and looked around. This was a damp room, she looked around until she walked to the window, then pushed open the wooden window. Below her was a rapidly flowing river, and they should be at the edge of the river. But now, he was pregnant and wanted to bring this child along. Wanting to jump out of the window and escape wasn’t easy.

“It’s impossible to escape from here. There are countless of dark guards watching you from the sides, as long as you make any movements, the arrow would be able to turn you into a sieve in an instant.”

With a “pa” sound, Xue Moyun angrily closed the wooden window.

When she reached the door, she sat down. Before she could stop for a moment, she thought of another way. She pushed open the door as if nothing had happened, and just as she stepped out of the doorway, two knives immediately appeared in front of her.

“Miss, please go back. Blades have no eyes, so it’s not good to accidentally injure you.”

Xue Moyun glared at them and closed the door behind him.

The boy saw that Xue Moyun had lost, and there was a rare trace of a smile in his eyes, “Under their surveillance, we couldn’t leave even if we wanted to. Don’t get yourself into trouble. ”

“Go go go, little brat, you’ll splash cold water on me.” Xue Moyun squatted down and tenderly pinched his little face.

“How dare you!” The boy suddenly flew into a rage and scolded Xue Moyun harshly.

“Oh oh oh? I can’t tell. Your temper is quite big.” Xue Moyun pulled on the clothes on the child’s back, making it impossible for him to leave even if he wanted to.

“Let go of me.” The little boy said angrily.

Hearing that the little boy was angry, Xue Moyun quickly let go of him and crouched in front of him. He couldn’t help but laugh. Xue Moyun covered his mouth and laughed.

“Humph!” The boy turned away angrily. Since he was young, no one had ever played with him like this.

“Are you angry?” Xue Moyun laughed, then walked in front of the little boy.

“I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I apologize. Please don’t be angry, alright?” Xue Moyun kept on teasing him.

Seeing the child ignore her, she could only sit across from the boy and drink from the teapot on the table, “Little brother, you want to leave this place? As an apology, I’ll take you out, okay?” Xue Moyun asked tentatively.

“You can’t even protect yourself, how can you care about others?” The little boy scoffed at Xue Moyun.

“Aiyo, don’t look down on me like that. Let me tell you, I’m very strong. You, ah, don’t be so pessimistic. There are no difficulties in this world. Xue Moyun said confidently.

The boy wiped the expression off his face and sighed lightly, “If I can’t leave this place soon, I’m afraid I won’t be able to escape death.”

Xue Moyun’s heart trembled as he put down the teapot in his hand. He had a very unpleasant feeling in his heart, thinking back to how he didn’t understand anything when he was his age, and had this kind of laments before. That was why no one had used money to redeem him for so long. If these people didn’t receive the ransom in a few days, he would be killed, which was why he felt this way.

Xue Moyun sighed as she gently reached out her hand to grasp the cold back of the boy’s hand. She said confidently, “I will not let anything happen to you. Today, I will take you away.”

The boy looked up in surprise. “Why?”

“Why what?”

“Why are you being so nice to me? We just met by chance.”

“So what if we meet by chance? Meeting is fate.” Furthermore, I do not want to be treated as a commodity and given to others for no reason. ”

The boy pondered for a moment and said solemnly, “If you can really take me away, in the future … I will find my family and definitely not mistreat you. ”

Xue Moyun naturally raised her hand and stroked his head twice, “Speaking of which, you’re not that old yet, but why do you look so old?

The boy dodged Xue Moyun’s touch, his face red, “I think it’s better to figure out how to get out first.”

Xue Moyun supported himself with one hand and lightly knocked on the table with the other, “There’s always a way.”

… ….

The door creaked open.

The two brothers who were guarding the door looked back at Xue Moyun in surprise, and frowned unhappily, “Miss, what are you trying to do this time?”

Xue Moyun’s face was filled with panic and helplessness, he spoke in a pitiful manner, “My two big brothers, I don’t know what happened to the boy inside, but he’s pale white, he’s barely breathing, and he’s unconscious. No matter what method is used, he won’t be able to wake up, do you guys think that he’s dead?”

The last few words made the two brothers’ hearts tremble. They looked at each other with extreme speed, and one of them said, “Go in first, I’ll immediately go report to the lord that this boy’s identity is extraordinary, absolutely nothing can happen to him. Otherwise, neither of us can afford to lose our lives!”

The two of them went their separate ways. The other guard hurriedly entered the room and Xue Moyun quickly locked the door. His gaze instantly turned cold, and he took out the tools he had prepared to wrap around the man’s neck.

The Overseer’s reaction was also extremely fast. He immediately realized that he had been deceived and wanted to call for help, but his throat was strangled and he was unable to make a single sound.

After struggling with all his might, he completely fainted.

Xue Moyun released his hand and kicked the Overseer. Seeing that he had fainted like a dead pig, Xue Moyun was relieved.

The boy grabbed the candle on the table and stabbed him in the heart without a word.

Blood immediately gushed out and splashed onto his face, causing his expression to become even more gloomy.

Xue Moyun gasped, “What are you doing?”

“Kill him.” The boy stood up and carefully wiped the dirt off his hands with a handkerchief. His tone was indifferent, as if he was discussing how good the weather was.

Xue Moyun’s face lost all color, as she grabbed the boy’s collar and lifted him up, “Why did you kill him? Didn’t we say earlier that we were going to escape? ”

The boy raised his eyes and looked directly into hers. “If we don’t kill him, we’ll be the ones to die when he wakes up.”

Xue Moyun frowned, but still released him in the end. Looking at the way he killed, he was definitely not a novice, suddenly, Xue Moyun started to doubt his identity, “Who exactly are you?”

“Like I said, it doesn’t matter who I am. As long as you can protect me and find my family, you can get anything you want.”

Xue Moyun suddenly felt a sense of powerlessness, “Let’s go, if we don’t leave, those people will catch up immediately.”

Unfortunately, Xue Moyun had just opened the door when he saw a man he had immediately met earlier standing at the entrance with a darkened face.

Xue Moyun’s face changed as he blocked the door, blocking the man’s line of sight.

When the man saw Xue Moyun, his expression slowed down, “What happened? Something happened to the little boy you were with? ”

Xue Moyun bit her lips, feigned shyness, pulled the man’s collar, and charmingly said, “He’s healthy, I just wanted to see you, but unfortunately, I could not think of a reason to do so, so I casually told a lie, but I did not expect you to come so quickly.”

Hearing that, the man’s heart jumped. He squinted his eyes, and wrapped his arm around Xue Moyun’s waist, “Oh, so you also have feelings for me.”

Xue Moyun suppressed the strong nausea and faked a smile, “Isn’t that so? It’s only been a short while since we’ve met, and I’ve already been thinking about how bad it is for you to be standing at the door. If you have anything to say, let’s enter first.”

The man raised his eyebrows, “That’s reasonable. Let’s talk inside.”

Xue Moyun’s finger followed along his collar and slid onto his neck while the man slightly closed his eyes. He was drunk in a warm and gentle state and didn’t notice the danger approach at all.
