Chapter 967 (1/2)

Gong Mochen’s eardrum moved, and his super strong hearing allowed him to catch a slight sound. He picked up Qin Sheng and brought her to a fork in the underground tunnel.

The sound of a woman’s footsteps came from afar, and one could hear her caution.

Qin Sheng’s eyes widened when she saw the woman walking over. This woman was man man!

Man Man, who had been crazy all this time!

Her heart clenched. Man Man was not crazy at all, she was lying to her!

Fortunately, Gong Mochen was alert enough to hide here with her. Otherwise, man man would have found them!

Man Man walked to the treasure room with ease. Her eyes landed on the jewelry boxes and kicked away the tools lying on the ground.

“How can there be such things? ” She cursed in a low voice. She reached out to open the boxes and rummaged through the jewelry inside.

The sound of the jewelry colliding with the gold and silver was loud. However, Qin Sheng was not in the mood to appreciate the sound.

Her eyebrows sank. What was man man looking for?

She could tell that man man’s purpose was very strong. It was obvious that she was looking for something Even the jewelry was not worth her attention!

Man Man’s hand was rummaging through the jewelry box. She had never felt the weight of the jewelry so clearly before. She had not rummaged for long before she felt pain in her arm. These things were too heavy!

There was far more than one jewelry box. This room was filled with jewelry boxes. Any one of them was enough for her to search for half a day!

She stomped her feet in frustration. It was not easy for her to pretend to be crazy and hide from Qin Sheng’s eyes so that she could stay. Today, she finally found the opportunity to sneak into the crown prince’s bedroom.

The last few times she sneaked in, it was when she was serving the crown prince in bed. She took the opportunity to inhale the sleeping medicine for the crown prince and let him fall into a deep sleep. Only then did she sneak in to look for it.

But every time, she could only flip through one box. It was impossible to find it at such a speed. More importantly, she did not know what the thing Zhuo Nan asked her to look for looked like!

She searched for a while and seemed to be startled by a slight sound. She turned her head back vigilantly and walked towards the source of the sound step by step.

Qin Sheng’s heart was in her throat. The sound was made by Gong Mochen!

Because Gong Mochen had been taking advantage of the time when they could not make any sound to torture her and bring her to the extreme!

She could not help but take a deep breath so that man man could hear the abnormality!

Her eyes were tightly fixed on man man’s figure which was getting closer and closer. The long light in the tunnel dragged man man’s figure very, very long. She had already seen the shadow above man man’s head moving over!

Her heart was so nervous that she forgot to take a breath. Her mind was spinning rapidly. If man man found out that she was with Gong Mochen, what would she do?

Just as man man’s shadow was about to turn into the tunnel where they were hiding, Gong Mochen flipped his wrist and shot out a small stone from his fingertip.

The small stone was hit onto the stone wall of the tunnel, making a rolling sound.

Man Man was shocked by the sudden sound. She was also afraid of being discovered!

She quickly walked towards the place where the sound came from and got a small stone. Her eyes were fixed on the stone wall. The Stone Wall here was made of large stones. There would be small stones in the cracks. Could it be that these small stones had fallen off by themselves after a long time?

Her brows were furrowed into a knot. Her gaze swept through the cracks in the stone wall, but she could not see the cracks in the ceiling clearly due to the high passage.

Suddenly, the ringtone of a mobile phone rang. Man Man was so scared that she almost jumped up.

She reached out and pressed on the phone screen to turn off the sound. This was the time that she had set for herself. For safety reasons, she only gave herself twenty minutes to find something. When the time was up, she would return regardless of whether she could find something or not.

Because she was cautious enough, no one had discovered that she had been to the secret passage!

She quickly returned to the secret passage leading to the crown prince’s dormitory, skillfully opened it, and drilled back in.

As Qin Sheng heard the sound of the door closing, she pushed Gong Mochen away and walked out.
