Empress Running Away with the Ball! Chapter 164

Chapter 164: A man that wants face

Hearing the explosion coming from behind her, Chen Ning revealed a smile.

She really wanted to look back and see what Chu Shao Yang look like, but there was no time.

She had realized that there were a group of guards rus.h.i.+ng over in front of her after hearing the sound of the explosion.  Her figure flashed and she disappeared into the shadow of a corner.

"Come!  Come quickly!"

"Something's happened!  Something's happened to his highness!"

"Doctor!  Bring a doctor over!"

She hid in the dark as she saw a group of people loudly shouting.  They had worried expressions on their faces as they rushed to the Peach Blossom Cove.

She saw Housekeeper Xu and Mother Lin in the crowd.  Before long, she also saw Chen Bi Yun's figure rus.h.i.+ng over.

Ai, it was a pity that she only brought two eggs.  If she had thrown everything at Chu Shao Yang, she might have been able to give her good little sister a good present.

Chen Ning gave a regretful sigh.

Seeing the anxious look on everyone's face like their b.u.t.ts were on fire, she really wanted to look what the person who had suffered her two thunderbolt eggs looked like now.

But she knew if she appeared, it would be impossible for them not to notice her.

She waited a while until it was quiet, then she quietly slipped out of the corner as she prepared to sneak back to the Flowing Cloud Pavilion.

"Humph!"

At this moment a cold snort suddenly sounded out in her ears.

Chen Ning's back turned stiff.

There's someone here!

Moreover this person was right behind her!

She suddenly turned around and found that there was nothing behind her, not even half a shadow.

"Xiao Bai, stop hiding.  I know that it's you."

That laughter was light, but it was familiar.  Other than Chu Shao Bai, it could not be anyone else.

After she finished speaking, she just stood there, silently waiting.

Who would have thought that even after a while, Chu Shao Bai still did not appear.

"Xiao Bai, are you still angry at me?  Alright, since you're still angry and not willing to see me, then I'll go."

She took a step forward.

"Go?  You think you can still go out?"  Chu Shao Bai's voice suddenly sounded out, like he was right behind her.

Chen Ning turned around again.

This time, Chu Shao Bai did not hide away and stood right in front of her.  His face was cold and he did not have a smile at all on his face.

Seeing him like this, Chen Ning was filled with a strange feeling.

"You really are audacious.  You dared to sneak into my third brother's Peach Blossom Cove and dared to cause such a mess, do you think that the guards of my third brother's palace are just for show?  I'll bet with you that before you even take three steps out, you will be recognized by someone and treated as an a.s.sa.s.sin."

He reached out and pulled her back into the shadow of the corner.  The two of them were standing close together and his words seemed like they were being sent right into her ears.

The hot air that he exhaled flowed across the back of her ear, making it hot and itchy.  Her body suddenly trembled.

Chen Ning revealed a faint smile.

"Xiao Bai, are you worried about me?"  She lowered her voice into a whisper.

"Humph!"  Chu Shao Bai responded with a cold snort.

Chen Ning knew that he was still angry with her, but the fact that he was willing to show himself and send her eggs meant that the anger he displayed was just for show.

The most important thing to a man was face.

""If you don't say anything, then I'll just walk out right now.  I'm not afraid of them treating me as an a.s.sa.s.sin."  Chen Ning deliberately said.

Chu Shao Bai reached out and grabbed her arm.  He grinded his teeth as he said, "Stop making trouble."

He looked around and then said, "This place is not the place to talk.  I'll take you away from here first."

He was dressed in a large black robe which made him look like an eagle taking off.  Grabbing her, he pulled her over the wall.

In the vast night, no one noticed them.
