Chapter 13 - A Sleepless Night

Chi Yang looked up in surprise.

'The male lead is offering help for the condemned?'

'Then what am I waiting for!'

"Shen Juan… You're really a good person," Right after Chi Yang uttered those words, she threw herself into Shen Juan's arms.

Shen Juan reached out and steadied her.

Was he a good person?

This was the first time he had been praised like this. It was really interesting.

The corners of Shen Juan's lips curled up slightly as he hugged Chi Yang tighter.

Feeling her hug was being reciprocated rather enthusiastically, Chi Yang was stunned. She raised her head to look at Shen Juan and questioned, "Why aren't you moving? Have you eaten?"

Shen Juan did not reply.

His warm breath gently hit her neck.

A hot and warm tongue licked her fair earlobe.

Then, the dense kisses that landed on her skin made Chi Yang tremble, and her legs went weak, almost making her lose her balance.

Shen Juan held Chi Yang back and kissed the tears on her eyelashes, asking hoarsely, "Have I eaten?"

Chi Yang leaned lazily in Shen Juan's arms, panting heavily.

Her legs turned to jelly at the stimulation.

"You did! You! It's me who didn't have my fill!"

'I can't take it if this continues!'

Chi Yang thought.

Shen Juan seemed to have expected Chi Yang to say this. He lowered his head and looked at the small woman in his arms. The skin of her exposed shoulders enticed him. Suddenly, he laughed.

"Then eat… Well, aren't I nice?"

...

When the window lit up, Chi Yang woke up and turned to face Shen Juan.

The man was still sound asleep. The pitiful light in the room shone on his eyebrows. She could see that his facial features were as deep as a sculpture, and there was an indescribable elegance and handsomeness to his features.

'Unfortunately, this was the female protagonist's man…'

After sighing, Chi Yang picked up her clothes that were scattered on the ground one by one and put them on neatly.

She carefully pushed open the door and wanted to call her sleeping attendant next door before leaving quietly.

Who would've guessed that when she stepped over the door, she suddenly felt the ache in her legs which almost made her knelt on the ground?

Chi Yang was afraid of waking Shen Juan up, so she endured it and went to the next room.

The person on the bed slowly opened his eyes and stared at Chi Yang, who had quietly left. His deep eyes were filled with a glimmer of light.

...

"Prince, the Young Miss has already left."

Shen Juan listened to Mo Yu's report and replied indifferently, "You may leave."

However, Mo Yu did not leave. He hesitated and said, "Someone sneaked into our bookstore last night, my Prince."

Shen Jue couldn't think of anyone who knew about his arrival in the capital.

"Who is it?"

Mo Yu said, "That person said that she is the servant girl of the Chi Manor's Young Lady."

Shen Juan thought for a moment and knew that this maidservant belonged to Chi Yang's adoptive sister.

"Where is she?"

"Shi Jian tied her up and the maidservant is now locked in the woodshed."

"If that person is sensible, tell her that other than reporting being locked up by Shi Jian, she is not allowed to talk about anything else."

Although Mo Yu didn't understand why the prince did this, he turned around and did as the prince had instructed him.

He had cast a long line to catch a big fish. If the kitten knew about this, she would thank him.

Shen Juan thought of the good show that would happen in the future and couldn't help but smile. However, he accidentally touched the scratch on the corner of his eye.

Shen Jue hissed in pain.

No, she was not a docile kitten that accidentally scratched people. She was a wild cat that scratched people all the time because of her nature.

"Haha…" Shen Juan stroked the corner of his injured eye and smiled.

...

"Miss, Hupo has returned."

Because of Miss' instructions, Liu Li did not sleep the entire night. She was afraid that Hupo would return and she did not inform the Miss in time.

Now that Hupo had returned, Liu Li immediately came to inform her Miss.

"Hurry up… Quickly get her to see me!"

Chi Yao knew that her chance to kill Chi Yang had finally come.

According to Qi Yan, as long as she inhaled the Love Bewitching Fragrance, she would have to endure it several times no matter what. Otherwise, she would die from the poison.

Counting that night when she first inhaled the incense and yesterday night, the next time Chi Yang went out, it would be a good opportunity to deal with her!
