8 Midnight Escapade (2/2)

Xiang-they were the family which holds the position of Dukes of the First Rank, Jiang –”Marquees of the First Rank”, Wang- ”Count of the First Rank”, Guangxi- ”Count of the Second Rank”, Lou-”Royale Advisor…”

Her eyes stop upon seeing those last words. Can't be. {Is this true?} She murmurs to herself.

Bai Shin Lin was still midway when she hears the sound of door unlocking.

As fast as she could, she finds the safest place to hide leaving the book aside. She crawled down under the table that she was using. The red tablecloth that wrap the circular table is enough to hide her from the incoming visitor

{Who on earth would visit this place at this night?} She wonders herself.

”Xiao, are you still suspicious of them? Should we send men to tail them?” It was a man's voice and she clearly know whom this voice belong. But what intrigues her was the name he mention. It was the name of the man she detest in the whole world.

{What are they talking about?} Bai Shin Lin thought that the rumors about a special force task to erase the existence of this family. If he is part of that said 12 great families, would that make him in danger? And his talking with the Crown Prince, the future Emperor.

Luo Ren and Xiaopeng. The two men started to chat with each other without realizing her presence under the table. It made her relieve. However, just when did those two will leave!? They have been for almost 3 hours there and her bladder is almost at its limits. If after a few minutes they are still in there her bladder would explode.

Good grace heavens. She needs a miracle! {Just make these two leave already!}She almost want to shout with these two. She's almost at her crisis. She can't make it in time… oh no! She could feel that it's coming already. With great sheer willpower she was able to suppress it.

Right now she tried to peek outside. The door is just straight ahead. Who cares what will happen. She'll just pretend not to know anything when she will be ask in the morning.

{One, two three… here I go!}As fast as she could, she dashed out of the table, leaving the two men. She only glace towards the face of Lou Ren then runs out of the door. She was so sure that he wouldn't recognized her because her face is covered with a mask.

Meanwhile the two men was in awe as they saw a suspicious someone behind then rushing out of the door.

”Shouldn't you burn him Xiao, with your thunder he would gone into a crisp.” Prince Xiao look at Lou Ren with some amusement in his eyes.

”If I do that, I would be a widower even before marriage”
