Chapter 1213 The Frightened Master and Servant

Chu Liuchen looked down at Shao Wanru and saw two faint blushes on her fair and tender face. Not only her face but also her ears and neck were slightly flushed. Her cherry lips appeared more and more beautiful and attractive, which made her delicate little face indescribably charming.

His heart could not help beating faster. He lowered his head and kissed the corner of her soft lips again.

Shao Wanru’s mind went blank. She felt as if her whole body was on fire. Her whole body was burning. She wanted to escape, but her delicate body was tightly hugged by him. He held her tightly as if he was going to break her slender waist. Her nose was full of his breath, which made her immersed in his heavy breathing.

Shao Wanru was forced to raise her head and let him do whatever he wanted to her.

Finally, Chu Liuchen couldn’t stand it anymore. The girl in his arms seemed to be specially made for him, allowing him to do whatever he wanted to her.

He held Shao Wanru in his arms hard to calm his rapid breathing.

The girl in his arms was petite and gentle, and he could feel that her breath was not calm. She was lying in his arms and did not dare to look up until now.

Chu Liuchen couldn’t help bursting into laughter, lowered his head, and kissed her hair gently.

His life was perfect only when he had her. Without her, he didn’t know what would happen to him.

“It’s thanks to God that I have Zhuozhuo!”

Hearing his laughter, Shao Wanru became more and more embarrassed. She lowered her head tightly, as if only in this way could she reduce her embarrassment.

“How could we do this in public? If others see us, how are we going to explain it?

“Fortunately, we’re in Prince Chen’s Mansion, which is the only thing I’m glad about now.”

She pinched his waist hard. Hearing Chu Liuchen cry out in pain in a low voice, she felt that what she did was inappropriate. She put down her hand and deliberately rubbed his waist.

“What’s wrong? Do you feel sorry for me now?” Chu Liuchen said in a gentle voice with a sweet smile.

Shao Wanru blushed even more. She didn’t want to speak at all, as if saying anything would be full of embarrassment. “Can’t he just remain silent?!”

She pursed her lips tightly, lowered her head, and did not move at all. She simply played dumb.

When Chu Liuchen suddenly withdrew his legs, Shao Wanru was so scared that she cried out in a low voice. She subconsciously reached out to hug Chu Liuchen. “Since you don’t want to see anyone, I’ll carry you back, Zhuozhuo!”

She could hear Chu Liuchen laughing in a low and hoarse voice, which was different from his usual bright and clear voice. For some reason, she became so shy that she didn’t want to see anyone.

She twisted her body and whispered, “Put me down!”

“Why should I put you down?” Chu Liuchen walked back with Shao Wanru in his arms. Xiao Xuanzi and Yujie looked at each other and smiled. They hurriedly followed the two, but they didn’t dare to make a sound. They could tell that Princess Chen was angry from embarrassment.

“Put… put me down now. What if someone sees us?” Feeling that he continued to walk, Shao Wanru was really anxious and twisted her body more and more.

As a well-behaved Young Miss from an aristocratic family, she naturally couldn’t do such an indecent thing. Even if she had not followed the rules since she was a child, she still felt ashamed at this time. “This is too out of line.”

“I’m holding my princess in my arms. Am I afraid of being seen?” Chu Liuchen said indifferently with a slight smile. The girl in his arms was so light that he took pity on her.

“Someone will see us,” Shao Wanru said anxiously. Although Prince Chen’s Mansion was very strict in its management, it wasn’t guaranteed that there were no spies sent by other mansions.

“So what? No one can stop me.” Chu Liuchen said in a gentle but domineering voice.

His momentum comforted Shao Wanru, who was restless. She bit her lip. They had walked a long way. Since he refused to let her go, it was useless for her to struggle. Her strength was not at the same level as that of Chu Liuchen at all. No matter how hard she struggled, it would be in vain and she would only be laughed at.

After figuring this out, Shao Wanru immediately stopped moving.

Sensing that Shao Wanru was docile, Chu Liuchen showed an increasingly gentle smile, hugged the girl in his arms tightly, and relaxed his grip. This was his treasure, his only treasure, and the only woman he pursued. He could do anything for her.

She was his only salvation. She had saved his heart which had been forever immersed in darkness.

Shao Jie’er was waiting for Shao Wanru’s news, but in fact, she was not very sure. She told Shao Wanru what she knew first. Shao Jie’er would never do it in the past. “What a stupid move. Since I told her what happened, why would she come to save me? I’m too stupid.”

She even suspected that Wen Xichi asked her to write such a letter to get her information. He said that he would give it to Shao Wanru, but in fact, he would read it himself. After all, he also wanted to know the news on it.

However, Shao Jie’er had to do as she was told. At present, she had no way out. Thinking about it carefully, she realized that Shao Wanru was indeed the only person she could turn to. Moreover, she didn’t have a good relationship with Shao Wanru. She had listened to Madam Jiang, Shao Yanru, and Old Madam more than once and hurt Shao Wanru. Thinking of this, she inexplicably felt guilty.

Since Wen Xichi said so, she didn’t dare to disobey him. After the letter was sent, she had been restless and paced back and forth in the courtyard.

The courtyard she lived in was not far from the vacant one before. Consort Dowager Qing did not want her to be too close to Chu Qing, which was also the main reason why it was convenient for her to go to the vacant courtyard before.

Now she had told Shao Wanru her secret, but there was no news of Shao Wanru for a long time. Shao Jie’er got very anxious. She had walked around in circles. She sent Liuxiang out to see if there was any news from Shao Wanru.

She suddenly thought that if Chu Qing and Consort Dowager Qing knew what she said, they would definitely not spare her and kill her.

It could be said that Shao Wanru got to decide her life and death now, but why hadn’t she come to save her yet? Wen Xichi had repeatedly said that Princess Chen would come to save her and told her not to act rashly, but she couldn’t calm down no matter what.

Thinking of Shao Wanru, Shao Jie’er felt guilty. She was really afraid that Shao Wanru would leave her alone.

“Lady Consort… Prince Qing is coming!” The door was knocked open heavily. Liuxiang ran in with sweat all over her face, and her face was deadly pale. She had followed Shao Jie’er into Commandery Prince Qing’s Mansion. She lived in the mansion with great caution and was doing even worse than in Marquis Xing’s Mansion.

“Prince… Prince Qing is coming?” Shao Jie’er said in a trembling voice as the teacup in her hand fell to the ground heavily.

“I… I don’t know if he’s coming for you. Prince Qing brought a few people here… I saw it from a distance, so I… I reported it to you immediately,” Liuxiang said in a trembling voice.

Neither the master nor the servant was bold or smart.

Like her master, Liuxiang was also a mean person. They tried their best to curry favor with those who were superior to them and were mean to those who were inferior to them. It was as if they wanted to vent the humiliation that others had imposed on them.

“Then… then what should we do?” Shao Jie’er said with her hands trembling. She was in a panic and her mind went blank. She didn’t know how to deal with it at the moment. “Am I exposed? Old Madam has asked Chu Qing to kill me, and I’m about to be killed and thrown into a mass grave.”

Thinking of this, she felt terrible. She collapsed in the chair and couldn’t stand up.

“Lady Consort, you… you can rest assured. Everything will be fine. Prince Qing likes you very much. Everything will… be fine.” Liuxiang comforted her with a pale face. Neither of them believed what she said.

Chu Qing was merely nice to Shao Jie’er now. When Consort Dowager Qing made things difficult for her, Chu Qing would only remain silent and stand behind his mother. He had never even smiled at Shao Jie’er.

“Liu… Liuxiang… What… what should we do?” Shao Jie’er was at a loss, and her eyes turned red with anxiety. She was really afraid that what she did would be exposed. If what she and Wen Xichi did was discovered, she would definitely die.

She didn’t want to die like this. She was still young. How could she die at such a young age? She didn’t want to die. She suddenly stood up and subconsciously wanted to escape. She did not want to see Chu Qing. “Liuxiang… tell… tell him that I’m sleeping. I’m not feeling well!”

Liuxiang grabbed her and said in a trembling voice, “Lady Consort, it’s useless for you to go back now… Prince Qing will be here soon. It… it won’t work even if you say that you’re not feeling well.”

For a while, Shao Jie’er felt that she had been favored. There was once when Chu Qing came over, she said that she was not feeling well and wanted to get his care. However, Chu Qing ignored her and let her serve him, regardless of whether she was uncomfortable or not.

“Then… then what should we do?” Shao Jie’er asked with her hands trembling.

“Lady Consort, His Highness is here. Come and greet His Highness!” A voice came from outside. It was the voice of Chu Qing’s servant.

Shao Jie’er and her servant girl in the room were even more panicked. They couldn’t avoid Chu Qing even if they wanted to.

At this point, Shao Jie’er threw caution to the wind. She gritted her teeth and gave an order, “Let’s go. Follow me to greet Prince Qing!”

“Lady Consort…” Liuxiang cried out in a low voice and her legs trembled.

“If you still want to live, stop your fear, or I will make you take the blame!” Shao Jie’er threatened Liuxiang fiercely.

“I’ll be dead if I’m made to take the blame!”

Liuxiang was shocked by her and stopped trembling. Although her face was still pale, she looked much calmer. She even stepped forward to tidy up the clothes for Shao Jie’er and said, “Don’t worry, Lady Consort. I won’t get our plan ruined!”

The two of them calmed down together and knew that they had to greet Prince Qing no matter what. What would happen next was really beyond their control. Shao Jie’er gritted her teeth hard and walked out slowly with her soft legs. As soon as she reached the door of the room, she saw Chu Qing walking over with his hands clasped behind his back with a gloomy face.

Shao Jie’er felt her legs go weak again. She leaned against the door frame and said in a sweet voice, “Your Highness!”

Then, she bowed sideways. Liuxiang hid behind her and followed her to bow.

Chu Qing glanced at them coldly and strode into the room. He sat down on the chair in the middle and looked at Shao Jie’er, which made the hair on her back stand on end.
