Chapter 691: A Pretty Woman Appeared Suddenly

After Lucy was brought away, the head of the village and his family, who were asked by Mu Sihan to hide behind a hidden bush, walked over.
They had all seen what had just transpired.
It turned out they had wronged the good man. Mr Bai’s death had nothing to do with the Fourth Prince after all.
They were simple people, and this filled them all with a terrible sense of guilt, especially the head of the village. After all, he had used a stone to hurt Mu Sihan the day before.
The head of the village wanted to kneel down and apologize to Mu Sihan, though Mu Sihan hurriedly held onto him, furrowing his eyebrows as he shook his head. “Although I didn’t give the order to kill Mr Bai, but it’s still related to me. To make it up to everyone, if the village needs anything in the future, you can contact me.”
“Thank you, Your Highness.”
Mu Sihan and Nan Zhi kowtowed three times before Mr Bai’s grave, before they left one after another.
Nan Zhi stared at the man who was walking in front of her and unwilling to give her any attention. She reached her hand out to pull at his sleeves. “Are you still angry?”
That night at Crown Palace, she came out with this idea to lure out the mastermind after hearing his conversation with Yi Fan.
He did not agree at that time. After all, Lucy had gone so crazy that she even killed Mr Bai. If anything happened, she might even injure Nan Zhi.
However, she threatened him with a breakup to make him cooperate with her idea. Even if she got injured during the process, she would have no regrets. She would do anything to clear his name.
The man whose sleeve she had grabbed, shook her hand away coldly.
Nan Zhi stared at his cold back, biting her bottom lip. When this person got angry, he really was like a child that was hard to please!
A lightbulb lit up in her mind, as she suddenly shouted at him. “Aiyo!”
When the man turned around, she fell onto the floor on purpose, acting like she had tripped over.
Indeed, when the man saw that she had tripped, the ice finally started to melt.
His handsome eyebrows furrowed as he flew towards her. “Why aren’t you watching where you’re walking?”
Nan Zhi pouted, sadness written all over her face. “You’re nicer to look at than the road, so my eyes are always on you!”
Hearing her words, the corners of the man’s lips clearly twitched a little.
In the end, he still could not bring himself to see her fallen on the floor, so he reached out a well-defined hand towards her with a cold expression.
Nan Zhi held onto his hand. As he pulled her up, he suddenly tugged hard and pulled her into his embrace, before he carried her up like she was a child.
He placed both his hands under her b.u.t.t, forcing her to part her legs, wrapping them around his thin waist.
Looking up, the man’s enlarged handsome face was magnified in her almond-shaped eyes.
The man’s handsome features were covered with a thin layer of frost, his low and cold voice laced with a slight unhappiness. “Look at where you’re going in the future. And don’t stare at me.”
“Why can’t I stare if you’re good-looking?!” She smiled at him, her dimples appearing.
Staring at her bright smile, Mu Sihan’s Adam’s apple bobbled, feeling his blood flow the other way, his lower abdomen heating up a little as it seemed to stir.
His black diamond-like eyes darkened slightly. “Seduce me a few more times and we probably don’t need any antidote anymore.”
Nan Zhi froze for a few seconds before she realized what he meant.
Her long lashes fluttered, a faint blush appearing on her fair ears under the sun. That pleasing color was especially eye-catching and grabbed his attention in an instant.
