C10 Uninvited Guest
Silently sizing up the girl in front of him, Cang Xi couldn't help but calm down. This girl was too strange! He pushed himself into the water without any hesitation and jumped into the water naked. If it was any other woman, she would have already been scared out of her wits the moment she saw him! However, the woman in front of him did not react at all. Furthermore, she had saved him. What exactly was going on?
Looking at the man who was frowning at her, she couldn't help but laugh, "I've never seen a beauty before! If you continue to watch me, you better watch out for me or else I'll call you to take responsibility! "
Ignoring her, he shifted his gaze to the darkness outside the window.
Seeing that the other party was ignoring him, she did not say anything. Carrying her clothes, she ran to the back of the screen to change clothes.
Sitting on the chair, he tried his best to ignore the change in the other party's clothes and only looked out the window indifferently.
"Bam!"
The door was opened, and he subconsciously gripped the sword in his hand tightly. In an instant, when the man had only one foot in the room, the pure black sword was already at his neck.
The Prince never expected that the instant he opened the door, there would be a sword placed on his neck. Without any time to react, he raised his head and saw a pair of narrow and long black eyes.
His eyes were pitch black, as if they couldn't be erased by the night and couldn't be cut apart. A cold glint appeared in his eyes, carrying a strong killing intent.
It was like his eyes! However, he did not have such killing intent. What he had were forever calm eyes.
As she spoke, she walked out from behind the screen and saw the sword on Cang Xi's shoulder. She could not help but let out a breath of cold air as she walked forward and pushed Cang Xi away. She then pulled Cang Xi into the room and quickly closed the door.
Cang Xi didn't want to push his hand away so suddenly, so he instinctively slapped his palm towards her. However, when he realized it was his own posture, he mysteriously stopped his hand, and the backlash of inner force along with his severely injured body made the smell of blood rush up. He tried his best to resist, but blood still flowed out from the corner of his mouth.
She looked at Cang Xi in shock. As a hitman, he could not believe that Cang Xi was trying so hard to suppress his inner force so that he would not hurt her.
He reached out his hand to support the black clothed man who was about to fall to the ground. Looking into the man's eyes, he discovered a flash of confusion and bewilderment.
He didn't even know why he had to stop?
Looking at Zi Chen, she lowered her eyes and said, "Zi Chen, don't tell anyone, he didn't do anything to me."
Zi Chen nodded, "I know."
"It's getting late, let's go back!" She went to the door and was about to open it. "Do you want to come with us? Or stay here? Your position is too heavy, and even soldiers can search you now. For the time being, don't leave, or else we'll be implicated if we do too much business. "
After a slight pause, he raised his head and looked at the beautiful side of her face. He said hoarsely, "Help me heal my injuries."
As the carriage moved forward, Cang Xi closed her eyes in thought. Why did she save me? You don't ask me where I come from or what my name is? Was she trying to hit him? What idea? Such an intelligent girl should be able to see that I am a fugitive. Why did she save me? Do you want me to kill her?
"Don't think about anything silly there!" She leaned against the carriage and said blandly with her eyes closed, "I'm not not not curious about your identity. I can tell that you are an assassin. I don't have many reasons to save you. Don't think too deeply about me."
He looked at her in shock, his eyes filled with confusion and viciousness. He couldn't let this woman go!
"If you kill me, you will regret it!" She could not help but say so in a loud voice.
The hand holding the sword trembled. With a flash of silver light, the body of the sword that was originally pulled out was returned to the scabbard, and he closed his eyes to regulate his breathing.
Truthfully, she could not kill him now. If he died, it would be very difficult for him to escape. No matter what tricks this woman had up her sleeve, as long as it did not affect his interests in the tower, he would be fine —
The carriage stopped and opened its eyes as it spoke. It glanced at the man in black opposite it, then lifted the curtain and jumped off the carriage.
Jiang Zhu had been waiting at the back door for quite some time. He should have returned a long time ago, but for some reason, he didn't see anyone return today. He was really worried, but he couldn't leave and could only anxiously stand at the door.
He then heaved a sigh of relief as he stepped down from the carriage, "Young master, you're finally back!" I'm so worried about you, sister! "
She smiled and said, "Aren't you going to get out of the carriage? Are you preparing to be carried down by me? "
Cang Xi lifted the curtain and jumped off the carriage. She looked angry, but she did not speak.
Jiang Zhu curiously sized up the black clothed man and brought him home. His eyebrows were sharp, his teeth were white, and his lips were red. He was like a jade tree swaying in the wind. He was a rare and beautiful man! 'Could it be that big sister got hooked on him and brought him back to be a young master? ' Although big sis has the ability to do so, but …
When she saw Jiang Zhu looking at Cang Xi, she couldn't help but tease him, "He's so handsome, you shouldn't just look at him alone, right? We still need to enter the Palace! "
Hearing her words, Jiang Zhu's face couldn't help but turn red as he hurriedly tried to defend himself, "I didn't! I just found it weird that the Young Master brought people back. "
He turned to open the door.
She then looked at Zi Chen and said gently, "It's getting late. I should go home and rest early."
Zi Chen could not help but smile as he saw her speak to him. He raised his hand to rub her head and said, "I'm going back. Be careful."
Saying this, she patted open Zi Chen's Demon Claw, smoothed out his messy hair, and said in a displeased tone, "I'm not a child anymore, I don't want you to teach me, and don't keep messing up my hair, I better cut off all your hair!"
Ignoring the warning, he jumped on the carriage and left with a smile.
Without looking at the person behind him, he lightly said: "Let's go! "Big brother!"
He did not sleep the whole night, but only occasionally closed his eyes and slept for a while. He didn't know where he was, who he was, or what his purpose was. With his meticulous thoughts, how could he possibly still be sleeping?
He raised his hand and lightly covered the bandaged wound. He could not help but frown.
He stood up, picked up the sword by his side, and pushed open the door, just in time to see Jiang Zhu walking in his direction.
Seeing that Cang Xi had stood up, Jiang Zhu immediately walked up to him. "Young master, my brother said that it would be inconvenient for young master to stand up after getting heavily injured. It's best to stay on the bed so that his wounds don't split open and his painstaking efforts will be wasted."
Cang Xi didn't say anything, and turned around to return to the room. Jiang Zhu lightly smiled and then walked into the room as well.
He put down the breakfast in his hand and said with a smile, "Young Master, please enjoy your meal."
She raised her eyes to look at Jiang Zhu and coldly asked, "Who is he? Why did you save me? "
"How could little sister care about big brother's matters? If you ask me, why don't you ask him yourself when big brother returns."
"He went out."
"Big brother is the top scholar for the imperial examinations today, so he naturally has to go to court early in the morning!"
A fierce killing intent flashed across his eyes. He tightly gripped the sword by his side and asked, "When will your brother come back?"
Without batting an eye, she smiled coquettishly: "If Big Brother had changed back to the previous dynasty, he would be back soon. If Big Brother had gone out to play with other people, he would have at least gone through the afternoon."
"Oh, your brother seems to be very popular in the palace!"
"Young master must be joking, my big brother just didn't go and offend others, he's not that good."
"Is that so?"
