Chapter 558 - Seek Justice For Yourself (1/2)
Gu Bailu stroked her back and said, “Don’t be scared. Will you still be scared if Lu Fenying can’t recognize you?”
“Huh… if he can’t recognize me?” Qian’er didn’t understand.
“That’s right. I know you’re afraid of him, and I know he’s looking for you. I definitely won’t let you walk into a trap.”
Qian’er’s limpid eyes were full of confusion, but she still nodded slightly. “If he can’t recognize me… maybe I’ll have the courage.”
“In fact, the most dangerous place may be the safest. You’ll be right under his nose when he’s running himself ragged looking for you outside; he’ll be so p.i.s.sed that he can’t find you.”
Blinking, Qian’er asked uncertainly, “Is that really possible?”
“Of course! There’s no time to lose; go pack your things. We’ll set off tonight.”
Right up until Gu Bailu walked away, Qian’er couldn’t believe this was really happening.
Prince Zi loved Gu Bailu, but had kicked her out in the end. She had such a great house, so many connections, and a thriving business in this place. However, she said she was leaving, and was abandoning everything to go to the crown prince’s residence in Heavenly Wind Empire, the most vicious place in the world.
Qian’er had done everything she could to escape that demon, but now she was going back of her own accord…
Could she really go back to that h.e.l.l where she spent ten years in misery?
She never thought that she would ever go back for as long as she lived. She had planned to kill herself if Lu Fenying’s men ever found her.
But right now… she was going back. She was really going back.
Blank-faced, Qian’er returned to her room. She was still shaking; she had the deepest fear of Lu Fenying. Ever since her escape, she had tried to forget his face every day.
But she couldn’t. He would appear in her dreams every night, tormenting her, yelling at her and threatening her.
Of course, she knew that running wasn’t a solution. She was tired. She only pretended to be carefree. Every time she woke up from a nightmare, she had to hit herself to calm down.
