The person behind him said in a low and cold voice, ”Are you trying to lure me here on purpose?”
”That's right,” said Ye Chong, ”I've brought you here on purpose!”
As he finished speaking, he gradually turned around. Although his face was not Nangong Xiu's face, it was indeed the cold-faced man who was chased away by Manager Zheng earlier in the day. He said, ”To be discovered in the first round, you are truly too inferior.”
The cold-faced man didn't seem angry in the slightest when he was mocked.
He only looked at Ye Chong and said, ”Ye Chong, you've finally given your life. It really was hard for us to find you.”
”Someone is looking for you, and it's been a long time,” Ye Chong replied.
”Who?” The cold-faced man frowned slightly as he asked.
Ye Chong sighed. ”Although I don't believe her, she always says she's the princess' consort's junior sister.”
The cold-faced man thought for a while and said, ”I will tell the Crown Princess about this when I get back, but now …” ”It's time for us to end this.”
Ye Chong, however, did not move to make a move. She put down the snow-white handkerchief in her hands.
He no longer wiped his broken sword and instead turned around. He solemnly looked at the cold-faced man and said, ”Before that, you must answer a question of mine.”
”What problem?” The cold-faced man looked at Jingjing and asked seriously.
Ye Chong looked at the moon in the sky and asked cautiously, ”Why are you alright?”
He clearly remembered that Nangong Xiu was on the verge of death. Although he was also injured, Nangong Xiu was the kind that would not be able to continue living.
At that time, he had used the Body Concealment Technique to escape.
However, why was Nangong Xiu fine? He was still fine even now. Even now, he was still a mystery.
That was why Ye Chong couldn't figure it out.
Now that he had met Nangong Xiu, he had to at least understand his.
At the very least, he was certain that if Nangong Xiu was able to survive that sort of situation, there would definitely be an expert supporting him from behind.
Perhaps, at this moment, Nangong Xiu's martial arts skills were unstoppable by Ye Chong.
So, he had to ask clearly, maybe he would die in a while.
However, the cold-faced man didn't have the slightest intention to say anything. ”You're long-winded.”
Seeing that he wasn't willing to tell her, Ye Chong knew that Nangong Xiu would not be able to make him tell her if she didn't tell him.
He sighed and said, ”Since you are unwilling to tell me, I will not force you. But remember, if you are the one who is alive after the martial competition, remember to go to the Ninth Prince's Mansion to look for the Ninth Princess. She … I have been looking for you. I should say, she has been looking for the princess consort. ”
Just as the cold-faced man was about to speak, a figure suddenly walked out from the darkness.
The man spoke in fluent Western languages: ”Ye Chong, are you serious? Ninth wangfei is Bing Ying's junior sister? ”
Ye Chong was surprised by the sudden appearance of this man.
He turned his head and looked at the man that suddenly appeared and asked, ”Who are you? Why are we here? ”
As Ye Chong was speaking, the man slowly walked out.
Under the moonlight, Ye Chong looked at such a person and was shocked. It was a funny sight.
It wasn't that this person was terrifying, but rather, this person was simply too comical. It was so comical that Ye Chong jumped in surprise.
This person's entire body was chubby, it was almost impossible for him to move.
His stomach, it seemed, was like a pregnant woman in October.
Even under the moonlight, his vulgar face couldn't conceal the oily glow on it.
Ye Chong furrowed her brows. Looking at this man, she wanted to punch him in his face.
Ye Chong looked at him and frowned. ”Who are you?”
This fatty was the one who was selected to be the guardian of the Ninth Prince's Mansion.
But why was he here?
And from the looks of it, he didn't seem to be afraid at all.
Seeing Ye Chong speak, the fat man smiled and took a step forward, ”Are you Guard Ye? ”You said that the ninth princess knows the crown prince's wife?”
His words had become strange words from the Central Plains.
Ye Chong couldn't help but take a step back. Although Fatty's movements were clumsy, his steps were nimble.
”Who are you?” asked Ye Chong. I'm talking to Nangong Xiu, not you! ”
”Mistress, you're here!” The cold faced man cupped his hands and said to the fatty as soon as he heard Ye Chong's words.
Ye Chong's expression changed drastically, ”You're not Nangong Xiu?”
The cold-faced man asked, ”Did I say I was?”
”Then why did you …” ”He said it was hard for me to find him.” Ye Chong asked, vaguely sensing that something was wrong.
The cold-faced man did not say anything. He said, ”Nangong Xiu will not be looking for you. Nangong Xiu's subordinates can look for you.”
Ye Chong's expression changed drastically. She looked at Fatty and asked, ”You are …” You are Nangong Xiu? ”
The fatty's voice was no longer suppressed. Instead, it was extremely pleasant to listen to. His originally cloudy eyes suddenly became devilishly charming. ”I am not Nangong Xiu. Who is Nangong Xiu?”
As he spoke, he struck Ye Chong with all his might, ”This, I'll give it back to you.”
Jingjing rested for a long time in the afternoon, feeling very tired.
In such a hot summer day, it was extremely easy for people to get tired.
As soon as he touched the pillow, he fell asleep.
When she woke up again, it was time for dinner.
