Before Li Mei could reply, the carriage came to a screech halt as the girl jolted forward, on the verge of falling to the ground. Thankfully, the prince held her firmly and pulled her into his arms, protecting her with one of his hands as he barked out to his driver, "Oi, can't you drive carefully?"
But the driver said nothing as a hint of eerie silence spread around the place. Li Mei's body soon calmed down under this atmosphere as she looked outside, frowning when she met her eyes with a foggy street head-on.
Cao Haoran also frowned as he hugged the girl in his arms even more protectively. He finally decided that he should jump off this place and look at what was happening.
Li Mei was originally afraid and didn't want to be alone, but thinking of the situation outside, she pursed her lips. She knew of the prince's skills and didn't stop him. Instead, she also followed him out.
