“Thank you, thank you. Thank you for helping, Sir!”
The vendor who was chasing after him had already caught up, picked up the purse on the ground, and stepped forward to thank Feng Qingbai a few times.
Upon seeing this, Feng Qingbai’s eyes instantly narrowed. He retreated and protected Liu Yusheng with one hand, and knocked the vendor away with the other palm.
Liu Yusheng did not even register what happened.
She saw the vendor opening the purse and sprinkled something in the air.
Dense black fog suddenly rose and instantly filled the surroundings.
This spectacle terrified the tourists. They screamed non-stop, and chaos reigned once more.
Crowds of people were still in the smoke and were crashing towards her and Feng Qingbai, one wave after another.
Following that, she heard the frequent sound of people collapsing to the ground.
What was more, she and Feng Qingbai could barely break away from the sudden riot.
Assassination!
This thought flashed through Liu Yusheng’s mind instantly after she reacted, but it was too late.
Someone covered her mouth and nose from behind and carried her away quickly.
The black smoke gradually dissipated before long.
Once Feng Qingbai’s vision cleared up, he patrolled the surroundings, only to see the corner of Liu Yusheng’s skirt disappearing into a dark alley in a flash!
Fury boiled from the depths of his eyes, and he chased after them.
The dark alley was quiet. There was no starlight, so he could only track the faint sound of footsteps.
Finally, the sound of footsteps disappeared at the end of the alley in an extremely hidden house.
Without hesitation, Feng Qingbai rushed in.
Dark shadows immediately surrounded the yard.
His eyes turned glacial. He waved his hand and snatched a dagger without warning, then killed one at a time, completely without mercy.
In the blink of an eye, blood covered the dim courtyard.
After killing everyone, Feng Qingbai threw the dagger down and ran straight to the inner room. “Shengsheng!”
“Hmml!” An inaudible moan sounded, allowing Feng Qingbai to identify the direction in the darkness.
“Shengsheng! Don’t be afraid…” Feng Qingbai stretched out his hand to pick up the person on the ground. When his finger was about to touch the person, he stopped abruptly. His eyes were cold. “You are not Shengsheng.”
Her breath was wrong, and her taste was wrong.
Shengsheng carried a light medicinal fragrance for many years, not a powder smell!
The person on the ground who should have been unconscious obviously did not expect to be recognized so quickly. She stiffened and then opened her eyes.
In the darkness, she stared obsessively at the man close at hand. He was so close that she could smell his elegant cold fragrance. She could not help but reach out to hold his hand.
But the man snickered and swiftly fell back. He retreated outside the house and swung his palm.
Cracklings sounds echoed on the walls of the old private house, and then collapsed inward with a bang.
“Ah!” A scream reverberated from the house, followed by a moan of painful struggle. “Help, help me! Your Royal Highness…”
“Where is she?” Ignoring the woman’s plea for help, Feng Qingbai asked word for word.
“Help me!”
“Where is she! Don’t make me ask a third time!”
This was King Nanling, the real Feng Qingbai!
Cruel, cold-blooded and ruthless!
In order to be alone with him for a moment, to get close to him even once to satisfy her small craving, she used this self-serving tactic, but she only earned his disdain!
The woman who was pressed under the remnants of the earthen wall stared fixedly at the person standing outside the broken wall and laughed wryly. Her laughter sounded grating.
The intense pain spreading all over her could not suppress her hatred and resentment at this moment!
“Your Royal Highness is standing so far away. Are you trying to avoid suspicion with me? At this hour, who can see here? Liu Yusheng is not here, so she can’t see your infatuation!”
Feng Qingbai turned around and left. “If she is hurt even a tiny bit, I will let five horses tear you limb by limb! Zuo Xuan!”
If not for the fear that Zuo Xuan would bring greater danger to Shengsheng, he would have killed her now!
Five fingers clenched on the ground. Staring at the man who did not return, Zuo Xuan shouted harshly, “Your Royal Highness is so impatient. You’re not even willing to exchange a few more words to me. Liu Yusheng’s life, don’t ever think about it!
This time, the man did not even bother to reply and walked away.
He left Zuo Xuan screaming under the shattered walls.
Back on the street, he didn’t immediately register the difference because those people did not exude a murderous aura.
It was entirely different from any previous assassinations.
And after finding out that the person in the house was Zuo Xuan just now, he realized that her scheme was not an assassination, but another purpose.
Once he calmed down, a lot of things that he just couldn’t think about flooded in one by one.
The people in the courtyard were too weak to fight. They were not dead soldiers.
As long as they were not dead soldiers, the danger to Shengsheng was greatly reduced. With her tricks, she would certainly be safe.
At this moment, he was incredibly confident.
Not far from the house, Wei Zi appeared. “Master, there is no trace of Miss Liu around!”
Feng Qingbai closed his eyes. His hands slowly tightened and loosened, and after a moment, he opened his eyes, “There’s no need to look. After cleaning up the aftermath, you guys retreat.”
“Got it!” Wei Zi was surprised, but did not dare to ask any further, and immediately went to deal with the corpses in the courtyard.
With how much the King cared for Miss Liu, it was absolutely impossible for them to retreat for no reason. He must have had a plan.
Feng Qingbai also did not stop walking. He sprinted out of the dark alley, and directly ran wildly to Qian’s Restaurant.
“… If in the end you can’t find me or I can’t find you, how about meeting at the entrance of the restaurant?”
These words echoed in his ears.
He exhausted the fastest speed in his life and ran along the street, in the direction of the restaurant.
From a distance, he saw a string of lanterns hanging in front of the restaurant.
And a slender figure standing under the lanterns, looking around with her small hands behind her back.
Feng Qingbai’s steps gradually slowed down. The young girl under the lanterns glanced at him at that moment.
Four eyes stared at each other across the street.
The young girl tilted her head and beamed at him, “Feng Qingbai, I’ve been waiting for you for a long time.”
The dainty and soft, whining coquettishly at him.
This was the best sound he has ever heard in his life.
He raised his legs toward her and finally his footsteps landed faster and faster toward the young girl. He pulled her into the arms and sealed her mouth in a frenzy.
The real feeling of holding her in his arms was what made his heart settle to the ground.
Even if he was sure he wasn’t mistaken.
Without seeing her, without holding her, he would still be worried, would be afraid.
His fearlessness wasn’t a tad useful once she was involved.
Shengsheng, his weakness.
He would willingly enjoy this bittersweet weakness.
Because of the previous riot, the city’s stores have been closed, but there were still sparse pedestrians walking on the streets.
They couldn’t completely ignore the kissing couple under the bright lanterns.
At this moment, no one cared about offending public decency.
When they returned to the royal residence, and even sat inside a Shengxiao Courtyard room, Feng Qingbai let go of the young girl a little and raised his hand to caress her cheek.
“Shengsheng, where were you caught before and how did you escape?”
“I knew you would definitely ask.” The young girl raised her small face, quite proud of herself. She didn’t show any lingering fear after being kidnapped.
“Those people took me to a dark alley and then hid in the corner of the alley. I watched you chasing someone. Everyone was focused on your movements, so I found an opportunity to sprinkle them with drug powder. Then I came back safely.”
