Empress Running Away with the Ball - Page 36/852

Chapter 36: Wherever you want to stay

Chen Ning’s patience was completely swallowed up by him. She was sleepy and very tired, she had no time to waste with him.

She couldn’t understand why he would appear in her room in the middle of the night. Was he investigating her for Chu Shao Yang? Or was it just to satisfy his own curiosity?

So she lifted her hand and slapped him in his narcissistic beyond compare face.

A “pa” sound rang out loud and clear.

She had knocked the beautiful young man into a daze.

With his skills, if he wanted to dodge, even a hundred Chen Nings wouldn’t have been enough to hit him. But he never imagined that Chen Ning would hit him and that she would do it so suddenly.

This slap was like a bomb to him. There were five red fingerprints left on his white face.

“You dare hit my face!”

After being stunned for a while, he suddenly grabbed his face. Like a cat jumping up after someone steps on its tail, he pointed at Chen Ning and his eyes filled with the fire of rage.

“This time I hit your face. The next time you disrespect me, I’ll hit your butt! Little brat!” Chen Ning looked at him with a disdainful expression.

“What little brat! You……Do you believe I won’t hit you!” The beautiful young man’s face turned red as his chest heaved up and down in rage.

His fist clenched together and his joints cracked.

She dared to laugh at him. If she wasn’t a girl, he would have long knocked her teeth out.

“I say little brat, elder sister is tired and wants to sleep. Go wherever you want to stay and go, I won’t send you off!”

Chen Ning did not even care about the other side’s threats. She couldn’t keep her tired eyes open any longer. She gave a large yawn and then fell down on the bed. The minute she closed her eyes, she began to snore.

The beautiful young man’s teeth creaked from being gritted so hard. His eyes turned wide in disbelief, he simply could not believe that there was a woman like this in the world.

After she had finished hitting him, she actually pretended as if nothing had happened and went to sleep on her bed. He didn’t want to keep arguing with her in her room anymore, after all, he was a true gentleman!

Was she really not worried that he would do something to her?!

Chen Ning felt that her sleep was very sweet. She was full of energy when she woke up, she was simply sparkling.

The early spring sunlight came in through the paper windows, it was very bright and warm.

She sat up in the bed and looked around, she found that the beautiful young man was already gone. She could not stop her lips from rising and forming a slight smile.

Her judgement seemed to be right, that beautiful young man did not have any bad intentions towards her.

She had been looking at his expression and she had long seen that the young man’s eyes were filled with curiosity, and there was even a trace of mischief. Compared to his third brother Chu Shao Yang, he was definitely a different kind of person.

But in order to avoid being bothered by him, she had slapped him to scare him off. This way, she could get a good night’s rest.

“Young miss, you’re up? This servant has pumped some water so you can wash your face.” The door was pushed open and Xiao Ru came in with a bowl of water. She walked over to the bed.

“Alright.” Chen Ning nodded.

Xiao Ru placed the bowl down and picked a white towel to hand over to Chen Ning. She suddenly saw her face and couldn’t help screaming:

“Ah! Young miss, your face…..” She pointed at Chen Ning’s face. Her mouth was wide open and she had a shocked look on her face.

“What’s wrong with my face?” Chen Ning rubbed her face and felt that there was nothing strange. But she felt that something was strange after seeing Xiao Ru’s shocked expression.

She looked around and found that there was a bronze mirror on the dresser. She walked over and looked into the mirror.

“Dammit!” She cursed under her breath as she heavily slapped onto the table.
