Chapter 346: Definitely not a dream

Chu Shao Yang slowly put down the ointment in his hand and sat down beside her bed to stare at her sleeping face. There was no expressions on his handsome face at all.

After a while, he opened the door and walked out.

In the yard, Miss Chen’s hair was a mess, her face was covered in tears, and her butt was bleeding. When she saw Chu Shao Yang, she immediately began to tremble.

“Go in and take care of the Concubine Consort. If any troubles occur with her or her child, then this king will not be as polite next time.”

Chu Shao Yang coldly said this and then flipped his sleeve, walking away without even looking back.

Miss Chen had strangely been beaten twenty times. She had thought that her plans had been revealed and she was dead for sure, but it was not the case.

Listening to his highness’ tone, it was clear that he still cared about the second miss!

Could it mean…..that his highness knows nothing?

She endured her pain as she entered Chen Bi Yun’s room. She saw Chen Bi Yun comfortably lying in bed with ointment applied to her red and blue face. The remaining unused ointment was placed beside her bed.

She was even more puzzled.

The ointment on the second miss’ face, was it applied by his highness? If his highness knew what they had done, he would have executed them already. Why would he apply medicine to the second miss’ face?

Judging by the second miss’ upturned lip, it was clear that she was having a sweet dream.

That’s right, his highness did not know!

Miss Chen patted her chest and let out a long sigh of relief.

After Chu Shao Yang left the Intoxicated Flower Pavilion, he called for the captain of his secret guard. After whispering a few words to him, the captain of the secret guard left to fulfil his orders.

The next day, he spent the entire day in the Peach Flower Cove, not taking a single step out.

Until night came and the candle in the room was light, he sat under the light, silently pondering something.

All the way until the middle of the night, he suddenly flipped his sleeves and flew out the window.

Under the bright moonlight and the shadow of the flowers, he stood under a single peach flower tree, standing there with a trance on his handsome face. In the deep, cold lake today, when he was struggling to escape death, he had seen her once again.

He had been half conscious at the time, but before he hand fainted, he had clearly grabbed her hand!

But when he woke up, she had disappeared once again.

“It’s not a dream! It definitely is not a dream!”

Chu Shao Yang was talking to himself through gritted teeth, but he suddenly moved. Under the moonlight, he ran to the Flowing Cloud Pavilion.

“Who is it! Stop!”

Before he even reached the Flowing Cloud Pavilion’s gate, he suddenly heard a low roar from behind him, followed closely by a palm sent at his back.

Chu Shao Yang waved his sleeve and sent out his palm.

He turned around and found the gentle moonlight shining down on his cold, handsome face.

“This servant deserves death, this servant did not know it was your highness. This servant has offended your highness, please show mercy your highness.” The black clothed guard fell to his knees in front of him, trembling in fear.

“You did well. Go away now.”

Chu Shao Yang surprisingly wasn’t angry and calmly waved his hand dismissively.

The black clothed guard’s back was covered in cold sweat as he quickly retreated and returned to the darkness.

Chu Shao Yang’s eyes shined as his figure disappeared, disappearing into the Flowing Cloud Pavilion like a shadow.

He arrived in front of Chen Ning’s window. Seeing that there was no candlelight coming from the window, he thought that the people inside should be asleep.

Quietly opening the window, he jumped inside without making a sound.
