Empress Running Away with the Ball - Page 713/852

Chapter 713: Two fighting one

He pulled out her other hand and saw that her fingers were all there. Chu Shao Bai finally let out a long sigh of relief.

It’s good, the one injured wasn’t her.

“Your highness, this is bad, someone is coming! I heard the sound of footsteps, it must be King Ding Yuan!”

Zhui Feng keeping guard outside the door suddenly came into the stone room and spoke with an anxious expression.

He saw Chu Shao Bai kneeling by the bed and that he had pulled her hands from the blanket. He was looking them up and down, as well as touching them, instantly causing Zhui Feng to fill with rage.

“Chu Shao Bai, what are you doing! Do you know who she is!” He angrily charged forward and slapped Chu Shao Bai’s hand.

“Of course I know who she is! What do you think I’m doing! I’m not taking advantage of her, I’m worried that she was injured!” Chu Shao Bai said in a suppressed voice as he glared at him.

“Nonsense! Do you think that I, Zhui Feng am blind? You’re clearly taking advantage of her…..”

Zhui Feng said this before suddenly noticing the fingers and blood on the ground. He instantly began to stutter.

“This, this, this…..Whose fingers are these? They, they, they, wouldn’t be the princess’…..right?”

“Of course not! Thankfully it isn’t!” Chu Shao Bai also heard the approaching footsteps and his expression became anxious, “This is bad, my third brother is back. We don’t have time to escape, what should we do?”

Zhui Feng did not know what to do either as he said through gritted teeth, “Why don’t we go all out against him! This subordinate does not believe that the two of us cannot win against him!”

“Idiot! We’re clearly in the wrong in this matter, how can we show ourselves to him?”

Chu Shao Bai regretted asking an idiot like Zhui Feng what to do.

He didn’t have time to think. He wrapped Chen Ning up with the blanket and wanted to run with her. Suddenly, he heard the sound of the clanking chains that instantly surprised him.

He looked down and his eyes turned red because he saw that there were two chains locked on her feet which were attached to the bedpost.

So third brother had actually locked her up here! Just like a prisoner!

Chu Shao Bai’s anger was unstoppable as he gritted his teeth until they creaked. He wanted to charge out and give Chu Shao Yang a fierce beating.

Zhui Feng also saw this and was filled with rage, but he did not have time to think about it. He took out a dagger and used his internal strength to quickly slice off the chains on her legs.

Chu Shao Bai held her in his embrace as he went under the bed. He was already under the bed as he said in a low voice, “Zhui Feng, quickly come in.”

Zhui Feng was a bit stunned before saying while shaking his head, “This subordinate does not like hiding under the bed.”

He was the emperor’s best secret guard, so he had a refined hiding technique. He could randomly find a hiding spot and Chu Shao Yang would not be able to find him.

Chu Shao Bai heard that Chu Shao Yang’s footsteps were already in front of the stone door, so he did not dare make a single sound. The thick cover hung down from the bed, so it blocked everything in front of him.

Unless one lifted up the covers and looked beneath the bed, they would not be able to see them.

In the darkness, Chu Shao Bai could not see Chen Ning’s face, he could only feel her fast breathing against his neck. It brought a wave of fragrant air that was very good to smell, which almost made him drunk.

He immediately realized that something was wrong.

His third brother’s internal strength was very strong, so he could allow him to hear her breathing, otherwise he would know that they were still inside the stone room.

He reached out his hand to press down on her face and covered her breathing.
